Objective To explore the effect of different arch forms of maxillary models on stress distribution of peri-implant of All-on-4 implants with 3-dimensional finite element, and to provide evidence for the improvement of implant achievement ratio in clinic. Methods 3-dimensional finite element analysis models of Tapered,Square and Ovoid arch form maxillary based on the MBTTM Arch Form Templates were constructed by using Solidworks software.The cortical bone thickness was defined as 2 mm at all points.The implants with 13 mm in length were inserted between the mental foramina.The 2 posterior implants were set at 4 inclination angle,from 0°to 45°.All implants were splinted with superstructure.A 100 N pressure was applied to 2 kinds of loading positions on the superstructure models. The maximum Von-Mises stress on cortical bone around the implants was measured by using Abaqus software.Results The maximum Von-Mises value in maxillary cortical bone with All-on-4 implants in 3 arch forms showed significant differences. In Square model the concentration of stress was advanced with the increasing of implant inclination angle;In Ovoid model, the maximum Von-Mises value was observed at 1 5°in posterior region,and was increased significantly by pasted 15°in anterior region;In Tapered model,the Maximum Von-Mises value was increased greatly at 45°. Conclusion Arch forms have appreciable impact on stress distribution of peri-implant.In Square arch form,the inclination of implant should be avoided;in Ovoid arch form, the inclination angle should be under 15°;in Tapered arch form,the inclination should be under 30°.

OBJECTIVETo compare the accuracy of mesiodistal tooth angulation measurements by using traditional panoramic radiographs and cone beam CT (CBCT) panoramic images.

METHODSPlaster models of 15 volunteers with individual normal occlusions were collected. The functional occlusal plane and tooth long axis on the plaster models were marked from the right first molar to the left first molar in the upper and lower dental arches. A radiographic stent, which contains radiopaque markers near the functional occlusal plane and approximating the root axis, was fabricated for each model. Traditional panoramic radiographs and CBCT scan images were obtained from each patient, with the radiographic stent seated on the dentition. A panoramic image reconstruction was made from the CBCT volumetric data by using related software. The CBCT panoramic image data were oriented parallel to the maxillary or mandibular functional occlusal plane containing all the radiopaque markers when measuring the maxillary or mandibular teeth, respectively. The mesiodistal tooth angulations of the plaster model, traditional panoramic radiographs, and CBCT panoramic images were measured and compared. Multivariate analysis of variance and Dunnett-t test were performed to compare the differences among the three methods.

RESULTSThe difference among the three methods was statistically significant (P = 0.00). Significant differences compared with the model measurement were found in two teeth (upper second premolar and lower second premolar) among twelve teeth (P = 0.00) in traditional panoramic measurement. CBCT panoramic measurement was not significantly different to model measurement.

CONCLUSIONTraditional panoramic radiographs do not provide a more reliable measure of mesiodistal tooth angulation, whereas CBCT panoramic image is an tool for evaluating mesiodistal tooth angulation.

Objective: To study the effects of hydrolysed casein in different doses on plasma and liver antioxidant capacities in mice. Methods: Fifty mice were divided into 5 groups: control group, vitamin E group (VE), low dose of hydrolysed casein group (CH1), medium dose of hydrolysed casein group(CH2)and high dose of hydrolysed casein group(CH3). The mice were supplemented with 0.25ml normal saline,7.2 mg/ml Vitamin E,4,12 and 20 mg/ml hydrolysed casein respectively by gavage one time a day. The mice were euthanatized after ten days. The activities of SOD, GSH-PX and the level of MDA were determined. Results: Hydrolysed casein in different dosese vidently increased the activities of SOD and GSH-Px in serum, and reduced the level of MDA in serum and liver of mice; group CH3 significantly increased the activities of GSH-Px in liver. Conclusion: Different doses of hydrolysed casein could raise plasma and liver antioxidant capacities in mice, especially the high dose of hydrolysed casein.

Objective:To observe the bone regeneration capacity of bone defects around BLB implants covered with or without membranes.Methods:Implants were installed into femoral bone of grown-up dogs.Near implants,3 mm horizontal width,5 mm vertical depth and 1,2,3,4 mm horizontal length(along the macroaxis of femoral bone) standard gradient bone defects were made.On one side,the incisions were directly sutured by lamination,and on the other side the incisions were sutured by lamination after using collagen membrane to cover on the defects.Three months after the operation the specimens were observed by stereomicroscopy.Results:In the groups with 1,2 and 3 mm defects,the defect areas had been filled completely with new bone which was mainly compact cortex.In the group with 4 mm defects,the defect areas were filled with new bone which was mainly trabecular bone.Bigger lacunes could be observed in the groups without membranes.Conclusion:If the defect is less than 3 mm,whether bioresorbable collagen membrane is used or not,osseointegration is well in the implant-bone interface.Improving bone regeneration should be done when the bone defect extension is bigger.

Objective To explore the short-term and long-term effects ofapplication of Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangioscopic Lithotripsy on the treatment of hepatolithiasis. Methods Eighty-threecases of hepatolithiasis were treated with the PTCSL and the other 87cases were treated with the Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.The general clinical parameters , curative effect in the near future and long-term curative effect were anlyzed. Results No significant differences were found between the two groups in the general clinical parameters (P>0.05). The operation time,intraoperative blood transfusion volume and intraoperatve blood soss in group A were significantly shorter than those in group B(P<0.05, respectively). The original calculi residual rate was 2.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 4.8%and the recurrent cholangitis was4.8%in the model of PTCSL (Group A). The original calculi residual rate was 18.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 23.0% and the recurrent cholangitis was 23.0%in the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy (Group B), with significant difference between these two groups (P<0.05). The calculi recurrence rate of group A was 12.0%,the calculi recurrence rate of group B was 22.9%,withno significant difference between these two group (P>0.05). No patients died in each group. The results of complications showed thatthe incidence of residual calculi of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (P<0.01). Conclusions Compared with the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy, the PTCSL was more safe, minimally invasive and effective. The short-term efficacy of the model of PTCSL was better than that of the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.

Objective; To investigate the stress distribution in implant-bone interface with different pitches by three-dimension finite element analysis method in order to decide the best design of thread parameters for stress distribution. Methods: Built three-dimension finite element models of partial mandible and dental implant with superstructure. The stress distributions in bone and three kinds of implants whose pitches were 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 mm respectively, under axial and oblique 45 degree to axle concentrated load. Data were analyzed by Cosmos/works software. Results;The maximal Von-Mises stress, tensile stress and compressive stress of implant with 0.8 mm pitch were lower than others, the stress distribution was even. The stresses in the same model under oblique load were much higher than those under axial load. The stress concentrated more on implant neck, upper part of cortical bone and the lowest thread on implant. Conclusion; The pitch of implant has effect on stress distribution in implant-bone interface and the transmission of occlusal force. The lower threads on implant should be cut to avoid the concentration of stress, and the non-axial force should be reduced as possible as we can or avoided when we design and make implant denture.
