Objective To investigate the cytocompatibility of the liching liquids of Co-Cr alloy and Ti alloy on human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). Methods The HGF were treated in vitro with leaching liquids of Co-Cr alloy and Ti alloy, respectively. The DMEM cell medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum was served as a negative control. The viability of HGF treated by two dental alloys were evaluated by means of MTT, and the contents of intracellular reduced glutathione (rGSH) were assayed by kits. The tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) contents were determined in the culture supernatant by ELISA in two groups. The effects of these alloys on the expression of caspase-3 were examined by real time-PCR method. Results Compared with the control group, HGF treated with Co-Cr alloy leaching liquids showed a lower viability ( P ＜0.05), while Ti alloy leaching liquid promoted the proliferation of HGF. In Co-Cr alloy group, the rGSH content was significantly decreased (P＜0.05), while TNF-α content was significantly increased (P＜0.05) compared with control group. There were no significant differences in rGSH and TNF-α contents between the Ti alloy group and control group (P＞0.05). The expression of caspase-3 was significantly higher in Co-Cr alloy group than that of control group (P＜0.05), while there was no significant difference in the expression of caspase-3 between Ti alloy group and control group. Conclusion Results suggest that Co-Cr alloy possesses cytotoxicity, while there is better cell compatibility for Ti alloy.

The causes of transient ischemic attack (TIA) are diverse and complex.It often attacks repeatedly and its early risk of stroke is high.Identifying etiology and pathogenesis and start the correct treatment in time are the important measures for the prevention of cerebral infarction.However,the conventional CT and MRI reveal no abnormalities in patients with TIA,and it brings difficulties to the clinical diagnosis and treatment.CT perfusion imaging can reflect abnormal cerebral blood flow perfusion in patients with TIA.CT perfusion imaging in combination with CT angiography may visually display its corresponding abnormal changes in the feeding artery and provide the valuable diagnostic information for the location of vascular stenosis,severity,plaque characteristics and collateral circulation.It has very an important significance for guiding clinicians to choose the best treatment options,improve clinic efficiency and observe efficacy.

Objective B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP) have been used widely in the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiogenic diseases, but the association between BNP concentrations and non-cardiogenic critical illness is unknown. Our study aims at investigating the role of natriuretic peptide testing for predicting 28-day mortality of non-cardiogenic critically ill patients in emergency department (ED). Methods A total of 255 non-cardiogenic critically ill patients treated in the emergency department were prospectively enrolled and a sample of blood was obtained for BNP measurement from each patient. A variety of clinical and laboratory variables were recorded. After 28 days, the vital status of each patient was ascertained and the association between BNP values at presentation and mortality was assessed. Results 71 patients died during the 28-day observation period. Median BNP concentrations at presentation among decedents were significantly higher than those of survivors (326. 0 ng/L versus 50. 9 ng/L,P <0. 001). The optimal BNP cut point for predicting 28-day mortality was 114. 0 ng/L. In a multivariate analysis (Cox-regression), a BNP concentration greater than 114. 0 ng/L(RR 7. 268, 95% CI 3. 864-13. 672) and an Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) scores greater than 20 (RR 3. 330, 95% CI 1. 815-6. 109)were the independent predictors of the 28-day mortality. BNP concentration alone had an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0. 825 for predicting mortality. Conclusions BNP concentrations at presentation are strong predictor of 28-day mortality in patients with non-cardiogenic critically ill patients in ED, which is better than Rapid Acute Physiology Score (RAPS) , Rapid Emergency Medicine Score (REMS) and APACHE Ⅱ score.

Objective To evaluate influence of benzo(a)pyrene on cell cycle of the human embryonic lung fibroblast at different synchronous stage. Methods Cell cycle distribution were detected by flow cytometry(FCM). Cells were synchronized at cycle G0 stage through 48 hours serum starvation and reenter cell cycle together at a synchronous state after resupplied with whole growth medium contain good serum. Benzo(a)pyrene with a series concentrations were directly used or metabolized active by traditional and modified metabolize active methods through preincubation of S9 and were treated as regent to HELF cells mostly synchronized at G1, S or G2-M stage respectively. Then cell cycle distribution changes were detected 12 h after treatment. Results Serum starvation(48 hours) could synchronize HELF at G0-G1 stage effectively and 10-12 h, 16-18 h, 22-24 h were cycle phase change distinctly time after serum restimulated. Cells were synchronized at G1, S and G2-M stage mostly. Benzo(a)pyrene influence cycle distribution little without metabolize active, while modified methods could metabolize active benzo(a)pyrene well and avoided disturbing effect of S9 on cell cycle in traditional method. Except 2 ?mol/L benzo(a)pyrene treated at 22 h after restimulated caused the percentage of cells at S stage increase, most treatment induced the percentage of cells at S stage decrease which was associated obviously with the increasing dosages. The percentage of cell at S stage decrease at 16 h were more remarkable than other times and the percentage of cell at G2-M increase correspondingly. While the percentage of cell at G1 increase and the percentage of cell at G2-M decrease were obsered when benzo(a)pyrene treated at 10 h and 22 h after restimulated. Conclusion Serum starvation 48 hours and restimulate can synchronize HELF at different stage effectively. Modified metabolize active method is suitable for cell cycle research. Primary influence of benzo(a)pyrene on cell cycle is the decreased percentage of cells at S stage, G1 arrest, G2-M arrest and G1 arrest were occurred when benzo(a)pyrene were treated at G1, S and G2 stage respectively.
