Objective:To explore the effect of modified Simiao Yong'an Decoction combined with conventional western medicine on lower limb hemodynamics in patients with low-risk diabetes foot (DF).Methods:This retrospective cohort study included 70 patients with infectious diabetic foot, between January 2015 and May 2019, and they were divided into control group and study group, with 35 in each group. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine, while the study group was treated with modified Simiao Yong'an Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks and followed up for 1 year. The levels of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and VEGF were detected by ELISA, the levels of blood viscosity, fibrinogen and HbAlc were detected by automatic hemorheological analyzer, the dorsal artery of foot was detected by color Doppler ultrasound, the diameter and blood flow velocity of dorsal artery of foot were recorded, and the conduction velocity of sural nerve and common peroneal nerve were detected by electromyography for recurrence rate calculation. And the clinical response rates were evaluated.Results:The total clinical response rate was 94.3% (33/35) in the study group and 77.1% (27/35) in the control group, and there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.20, P=0.040). After treatment, the bFGF [(177.15±7.96)ng/L vs. (158.87±7.21)ng/L, t=10.00], VEGF[(53.77±4.15)ng/L vs. (45.44±4.92)ng/L, t=7.66] levels in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01). After treatment, the whole blood viscosity [(3.84±0.86)mPa?s vs. (4.56±0.99)mPa?s, t=3.25], fibrinogen [(3.59±0.78) g/L vs.(4.23±0.97)g/L, t=3.04]and HbAlc[(9.61±1.31)% vs. (10.85±1.82)%, t=3.27] levels in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). After treatment, the sural nerve conduction velocity [(39.42±5.11)m/s vs. (34.22±4.52)m/s, t=4.51], common peroneal nerve conduction velocity [(40.94±4.22)m/s vs. (35.52±3.72)m/s, t=5.70], blood vessel diameter [(2.21±0.60)mm vs. (1.92±0.52)mm, t=2.16], while the blood flow velocity [(55.89±5.84)cm/s vs. (52.95±5.85)cm/s, t=2.10] in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). During the follow-up, the recurrence rate was 21.21% (7/33) in the study group and 29.63% (8/27) in the control group. with out statistical significance between the two groups ( χ2=0.20, P=0.653). Conclusion:Modified Simiao Yong'an Decoction combined with conventional western medicine can improve lower limb blood circulation and nerve conduction velocity of low-risk DF patients, promote rehabilitation and reduce recurrence.

Objective:To investigate the safety and effectiveness of multi-stent overlapping assisted coil embolization for ruptured intracranial blood blister-like aneurysms (BBA).Methods:Patients with intracranial BBA admitted to the Affiliated Quanzhou First Hospital of Fujian Medical University and treated with multi-stent overlapping assisted coil embolization from January 2013 to January 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. The embolization rate immediately after procedure, modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at discharge, aneurysm embolization rate, recurrence rate and mRS scores at 3 months after procedure were collected.Results:A total of 38 patients with BBA were enrolled, including 21 females (55.3%) and 17 males (44.7%); their age was 54±9.3 years (range, 29-71 years); the maximum diameter of aneurysm was 5.1±1.0 mm, and the diameter of aneurysm neck was 4.9±0.7 mm. Raymond grading showed that the complete embolization rate immediate after procedure was 71.1%, the residual rate of aneurysmal neck was 18.4%, and the residual rate of aneurysmal body was 10.5%. During the perioperative period, 2 patients had stent thrombosis and 2 had intraoperative aneurysm hemorrhage. Imaging follow-up at 3 months after procedure showed that the aneurysms of 31 cases (83.8%) disappeared completely, 4 (10.8%) improved, and 2 (5.4%) recanalized. The good clinical outcome rate (mRS score ≤ 2) was 81.1%, 1 patient (2.6%) died, and no postoperative rebleeding occurred.Conclusion:Multi-stent overlapping assisted coil embolization is a safe and effective surgical method for the treatment of ruptured intracranial BBA.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of a digital whole-process surgical guide for immediate implantation in the molar area. Methods : Twenty-six patients with molar extraction plans were accepted for preoperative CBCT and model construction. Computer software was used to design the ideal three-dimensional position of the implant. The control group of 13 patients underwent immediate implantation with a free hand operation, whereas the experimental group of 13 patients underwent preparation and implant insertion under the guidance of a surgical guide. Bone grafting was performed, and a good initial stability was achieved. After 5 to 6 months, osseointegration was achieved, and the final restoration was delivered. After surgery, the accuracy of the three-dimensional position of the implants was measured, and at the 6 month return visit, the modified Plaque Index (mPLI), modified Sulcular Bleeding Index (mSBI) and probing depth (PD) were measured. Results : In the control group and experimental group, the vertical errors at the top of the implants were 1.246 ± 0.072 mm and 0.628 ± 0.046 mm (t = 26.078, P < 0.001), respectively, and the horizontal errors were 1.563 ± 0.086 mm and 0.546 ± 0.056 mm (t = 35.813, P < 0.001), respectively; and the vertical errors at the root of the implants were 1.352 ± 0.042 mm and 0.532 ± 0.030 mm (t = 57.021, P < 0.001), respectively, and the horizontal errors were 1.645 ± 0.076 mm and 0.625 ± 0.072 mm (t = 35.086, P < 0.001), respectively. For the experimental group, the mPLI value was 0.923 ± 0.760, the mSBI value was 0.846 ± 0.689, and the PD value was 3.460 ± 0.713 mm, which were significantly lower than those of the control group. For the control group, the mPLI value was 1.769 ± 0.927 (t = 2.546, P = 0.018), the mSBI value was 1.692 ± 0.947 (t = 22.605, P = 0.016) and the PD value was (4.579 ± 0.475) mm (t = 4.709, P < 0.001). Conclusion A digital surgical guide plate can increase the precision of immediate implantation and the peri-implant health in the molar area.

The occlusion design of dental implants is related to the growing popularity of dental implantology. This paper discusses the occlusion design of the edentulous implant prosthesis and the relationships between stress change and the alveolar bone and between the occlusal design and implantation complications. The horizontal relationship of condyle, the design of the canine-guided occlusion, and the similarities and differences between the dental implant and the natural teeth on biteforce response are mentioned.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of periodontal microscopic surgery on the augmentation of attached gingiva and determined the clinical principle on how to use minimally invasive surgery to improve the surgery success rate. METHODS: Twenty patients with insufficient attached gingiva around implants were selected. Periodontal microscopic surgery for free gingival graft was performed to increase the width of the attached gingiva around the implants. The survival state of the free gingiva was observed after surgery, and the width of the attached gingiva around the implants was recorded before and after surgery and 1 year after surgery. The shrinkage rate of the free gingival flap 1 year after surgery was analyzed to evaluate the stability of the flap. RESULTS: The flaps of the 20 cases all survived. One year after the operation, the width of the attached gingiva was (3.05±0.44) mm, which increased compared with that of preoperation (2.56±0.31) mm
and decreased compared with that of postoperative day (2.13±0.28) mm. The shrinkage rate of the attached gingiva was 41.22%±5.04%. CONCLUSIONS The application of microscopic surgery on the augmentation surgery of attached gingiva can increase the success rate and improve the quality and quantity of attached gingiva around implants.
