Objective:To compare the bone dimensional changes following tooth extraction alone with extraction plus ridge preservation ( using deproteinized boving bone mineral Bio-Oss? and bioresorbable collagen mambrane Bio-Gide?) in periodontal compromised extraction sockets .Methods: Eighteen molars of sixteen subjects requiring tooth extraction because of periodontal destruction were enrolled in this study .The subjects were assigned to the control group ( extraction alone , EXT) or to the test group ( ridge-preservation procedure with Bio-Oss? and Bio-Gide?, RP) .Parallel periapical X-rays and cone-beam computed tomography ( CBCT ) scans were taken immediately after tooth extraction alone or plus ridge-preservation ( baseline ) and 6 months later .The changes of horizontal ridge width and vertical ridge height were assessed .Results:At the central buccal aspect , the ridge height increased 2 .9 mm in RP group, and reduced 1.0 mm in EXT group.At the distal buccal aspect , the ridge height increased 1.45 mm in RP group, and reduced 1.45 mm in EXT group.The differences between the groups reached statistical significance (P<0.05).The mean ridge width increased at the 1 mm below the crest (the horizontal ridge width was measured with grafting material at three levels at 1 mm below the most coronal aspect of the crest,HW1), which amounted to 3.40 to 5.80 mm in RP group, and 1.45 to 2.90 mm in EXT group.The mean ridge increased at the 4 mm below the crest ( the horizontal ridge width was measured with grafting material at three levels at 4 mm below the most coronal aspect of the crest ,HW4 ) , which amounted to 0.40 to 3.50 mm in RP group, and reduced 0.10 to increased 0.15 mm in EXT group.The test group and the control group were not significantly different (P>0.05).Conclusion:The ridge-preservation approach using Bio-Oss? in combination with Bio-Gide? can significantly increase vertical ridge height and horizontal ridge width after tooth extraction compared with extraction alone in periodontal compromised molars .

Objective To investigate and analyze the efficacy of Cervus and Cucumis Polypeptide for Injection in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee. Methods 100 patients with osteoarthritis of knee joint treated in Xinchang people's hospital from February 2015 to May 2017 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group, with 50 patients in each group. The control group were treated with oral glucosamine capsules in the treatment of the experimental group, Cervus and Cucumis Polypeptide for Injection palliative treatment, 250 mL saline plus 25g guguatiquwu, oral Nimeilishu capsule. The treatment time of the 2 groups was one month. The therapeutic effects of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed. Results After the corresponding treatment, 4 patients in the experimental group were invalid, 20 cases were effective, and 26 cases were effective. In the control group, 13 patients were ineffective. The effective rate of the experimental group was 92％, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). The IL-1 of the knee joint fluid in the experimental group was (8.01±1.72), and the IL-1 of the knee fluid in the control group was (7.08±0.97). The level of IL-1 in the knee joint fluid of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group, with statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion Cervus and Cucumis Polypeptide for Injection is effective in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee, and can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment,.

Objective:To evaluate bone formation in human extraction sockets with absorbed surrounding walls augmented with Bio-Oss(R) and Bio-Gide(R) after a 6-month healing period by histologic and histomorphometric analyses.Methods:Six fresh molar tooth extraction sockets in 6 patients who required periodontally compromised moral tooth extraction were included in this study.The six fresh extraction sockets were grafted with Bio-Oss(R) particle covered with Bio-Gide(R).The 2.8 mm × 6.0 mm cylindric bone specimens were taken from the graft sites with aid of stent 6 months after the surgery.Histologic and histomorphometric analyses were performed.Results:The histological results showed Bio-0ss(R) particles were easily distinguished from the newly formed bone,small amounts of new bone were formed among the Bio-Oss(R) particles,large amounts of connective tissue were found.Intimate contact between the newly formed bone and the small part of Bio-Oss(R) particles was present.All the biopsy cylinders measurement demonstrated a high inter-individual variability in the percentage of the bone,connective tissues and BioOss(R) particles.The new bone occupied 11.54％ (0-28.40％) of the total area;the connective tissues were 53.42％ (34.08％-74.59％) and the Bio-Oss(R) particles were 35.04％ (13.92％-50.87％).The percentage of the particles,which were in contact with bone tissues,amounted to 20.13％ (0-48.50％).Conclusion:Sites grafted with Bio-Oss(R) particles covered with Bio-Gide(R) were comprised of connective tissues and small amounts of newly formed bone surrounding the graft particles.

Object To understand if abnormal prostaglandin production is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic renal failure induced by the cane of Aristolochia manshuriensis Kom. Methods Rats in experimental group were given 10 g/kg of the cane of A. manshuriensis everyday for eight weeks. The control group was given the same amount of tap water. At the 8th week, kidney pathology, renal function, serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and urinary protein excretion were recorded. The content of 6 keto PGF 1? and TXB 2 in the urine, plasma and renal cortex tissues were determined. Results The urinary protein excretion, SCr and BUN had been significantly increased in rat experimental group. Microscopic examination of the kidney revealed focal degeneration and necrosis of tubular epithelial cells and slight intersititial fibrosis. The ratio of 6 keto PGF 1? /TXB 2 was markedly decreased in the urine, plasma as well as renal cortex tissues. Conclusion Abnormal prostaglandin production is an important pathogenic factor in the pathogenesis of chronic renal failure induced by the cane of A. manshuriensis

To establish a UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of geniposide, genipin 1-O-beta-D-gentiobioside and geniposidic acid in rat brains and study the brain pharmacokinetics of the three iridoid glycosides in stroke rat after the oral administration of Xingnaojing. In this experiment, brain samples were precipitated with protein for twice. Acquity BEH C18 column was adopted, with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid-water as the mobile phase for gradient elution. ESI source was adopted for mass spectra; multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was conducted to detect negative ions. The time for sample analysis was 3.5 min. the results showed good linear relations among the three iridoid glycosides, with the extraction recovery between 99.6% and 114.3%, good intra- and inter-day precisions and accuracies and stability in line with the requirements. The t1/2 and MRT in the three components were similar in brains of stroke rats. Geniposide and genipin 1-O-beta-D-gentiobioside showed double peaks; where as geniposidic acid showed a single peak. In conclusion, the method is so specific, sensitive, accurate and reliable that it can be used to study the brain pharmacokinetics of Xingnaojing oral preparation.

Objective To examine the suscepribility of the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)in IL-1 gene in Chinese Han population to ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods An correlation analysis was performed in a case-control cohort of 162 AS cases, 58 patients with other autoimmune diseases and 162 controls. Four SNPs located in the IL-1 gene (rs16944, rs3811058, rs419598, rs315952) were examined by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). Results The frequencies of allele C at position rs16944, rs3811058, rs419598 significantly increased in AS cases VS controls, so did their genotype frequencies (50% vs 36.3%, 57.9% vs 52.8%, 45.7% vs 12.3%, P＜0.05). The SNPs of these sites significantly influenced the prevalence of AS. Conclusion We discover that SNPs of IL-1 gene Rs16944, Rs419598, Rs3811058 is closely related to the occurrence of AS.
