BACKGROUND:Bio-Oss bone substitutes have been shown to prevent bone resorption by slowing bone resorption,reducing bone resorption,and restoring the height of the alveolar ridge.However,most clinical studies focus on the efficacy within 1-3 months.OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of two kinds of bone substitutes on the height of alveolar ridge and the periodontal tissue health status after implantation into the extraction socket of the wisdom tooth.METHODS:Forty patients with impacted mandibular teeth were randomly divided into two groups:Bio-Oss Collagen material was implanted in experimental group (n=20),and Bio-Oss bone replacement materials in control group (n=20).Cone-beam CT was retrospectively reviewed at 1,3 and 12 months after implantation.Alveolar bone height,bone changes and the second molars mobility were examined.Meanwhile,healing status of tooth extraction and gingival mucosa as well as the material spills were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) At 1 month after implantation,the gingival mucosa of both groups healed well without swelling.There was no spillover in the experimental group,while there were two cases of bone material spill in the control group.No tissues generated in the extraction socket and tooth loosening was observed in both groups.(2) At 3 months after implantation,the materials gradually degraded with no swelling and with generation of partial bone tissues in the experimental group,and the tooth mobility was improved.In the control group,there was also no swelling in the gums,and the materials degraded partially,but there was no presence of new bone and no improvement in the tooth mobility.(3) At 12 months after implantation,there was no swelling in the gums of the experimental group,obvious new bone tissues formed in the second molar with the presence of bone trabecula.The new bone tissues were integrated with the surrounding bone tissues.The crest of the alveolar ridge was located about 3 mm below the enamel cementum,the tooth mobility was restored to the level before extraction,and the chewing function recovered.In the control group,there was no swelling in the gums,and new bone tissues formed in the distal part of the molar,but the trabecular arrangement was not aligned.The crest of the alveolar was located about 3 mm below the enamel cementum,the tooth mobility returned to the pre-extraction level,and the chewing function was normal.(4) The height of the alveolar bone at 1 and 3 months after implantation was significantly higher in the experimental group than the control group (P < 0.01),while there was no significant difference between the two groups at 12 months after implantation.To conclude,implantation of Bio-Oss Collagen immediately after removal of the impacted wisdom tooth of the mandible is beneficial to alveolar bone height and bone quality recovery,and significantly improves the periodontal health of the second molar,but the long-term effect needs further observation.

Objective To observe the effects of ryanodine on rapamycin treated endothelial outgrowth cells (EOCs). Methods The mononuclear cells were harvested from umbilical cord blood by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, then induced into EOCs tnd expanded in vitro. The endothelial characteristics of EOCs were identified by immunostaining and fluorescent staining. The EOCs were pretreated with or without ryanodine ( 10 μmol/L) for 1 h, and then treated with or without rapamycin ( 10nmoL/L) for 24 h. Proliforation was evaluated by CCK8 and migration was measured by Transwell. The protein expression of EOCs was evaluated by immunobloting technique with total eNOS antibody and phosphoeNOS(Thr495) antibody. Results Compared with control group, the proliferation and migration capacities of EOCs were significantly reduced while the phosphorylation of eNOS ( Thr495 ) protein was significantly upregulated in rapamycin group( P < 0. 05 ), expression of total eNOS was not affected by rapamycin ( P >0. 05). Compared with rapamycin group, the proliferation and migration capacities of EOCs were significantly increased and the phosphorylation of eNOS(Thr495) protein was significantly downregnlated in ryanodine + rapamycin group( P <0. 05). The proliferation and migration capacities, the phosphorylation of eNOS (Thr495) protein and the expression of total eNOS were not affected by ryanodine alone ( P > 0. 05 ).ConclusionsRapamycin reduced proliferation and migration capacities while upregulated the phosphorylation of eNOS (Thr495) protein of EOCs and these effects could bepartly reversed by cotreatment with ryanodine.

OBJECTIVETo observe the protective effects of potassium channel opener nicorandil against cognitive dysfunction in mice with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes.
METHODSC57BL/6J mouse models of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) were established by intraperitoneal injection of STZ and received daily treatment with intragastric administration of nicorandil or saline (model group) for 4 consecutive weeks, with normal C57BL/6J mice serving as control. Fasting blood glucose level was recorded every week and Morris water maze was used to evaluate the cognitive behavior of the mice in the 4th week. At the end of the experiment, the mice were sacrificed to observe the ultrastructural changes in the hippocampus and pancreas under transmission electron microscopy; the contents of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in the hippocampus and SOD activity and MDA level in the brain tissue were determined.
RESULTSCompared with the control group, the model group showed significantly increased fasting blood glucose (P<0.001), significantly prolonged escape latency (P<0.05) and increased swimming distance (P<0.01) with ultrastructural damage of pancreatic β cells and in the hippocampus; GIP and GLP-1 contents in the hippocampus (P<0.01) and SOD activity in the brain were significantly decreased (P<0.05) and MDA content was significantly increased in the model group (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, nicorandil treatment did not cause significant changes in fasting blood glucose, but significantly reduced the swimming distance (P<0.05); nicorandil did not improve the ultrastructural changes in pancreatic β cells but obviously improved the ultrastructures of hippocampal neurons and synapses. Nicorandil also significantly increased the contents of GIP and GLP-1 in the hippocampus (P<0.05), enhanced SOD activity (P<0.05) and decreased MDA level (P<0.01) in the brain tissue.
CONCLUSIONNicorandil improves cognitive dysfunction in mice with STZ-induced diabetes by increasing GIP and GLP-1 contents in the hippocampus and promoting antioxidation to relieve hippocampal injury.

OBJECTIVE:
To compare the clinical effect on the joint attention and social communication in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) between the combined treatment of acupoint catgut embedding therapy with rehabilitation training and the simple application of rehabilitation training.
METHODS:
A total of 60 children with ASD were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each one. In the control group, the routine ASD rehabilitation training was adopted, including conductive education, speech training and music therapy, once a day. In the observation group, on the base of the treatment as the control group, the catgut embedding therapy was applied to Shenting (GV 24), Baihui (GV 20), Shenmen (HT 7) and the optic area (the point of scalp acupuncture), once a week. In the two groups, the treatment for 4 weeks was as one course, at the interval of 1 week between the courses. A total of 3 courses of treatment were required. The social domain of the autism treatment evaluation checklist (ATEC) and the autism behavior checklist (ABC) were adopted to assess the therapeutic effect of the two groups.
RESULTS:
After treatment, the scores of each item of the social domain in ATEC and the scores of ABC (feeling, communication, physical movement, language and healthy behavior) were all lower than those before treatment in the two groups (<0.01). The scores of each item in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after treatment (<0.05).
CONCLUSION
The combined treatment of acupoint catgut embedding therapy with the rehabilitation training effectively improves in the joint attention and social communication. The therapeutic effect of this combined treatment is better than the simple application of rehabilitation training.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the association between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents aged 7 to 17 years, and to provide suggestions for the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome in Chinese children and adolescents.
METHODS:
Data were collected from the research project "Development and Application of Technology and Related Standards for Prevention and Control of Major Diseases among Students" of public health industry in 2012. This project is a cross-sectional study design. A total of 65 347 students from 93 primary and secondary schools in 7 provinces including Guangdong were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method. Given the budget, 25% of the students were randomly selected to collect blood samples. In this study, 10 176 primary and middle school students aged 7 to 17 years with complete physical measurements and blood biochemical indicators were selected as research objects. Chi-square test was used to compare the distribution differences of growth patterns under different demographic characteristics. Birth weight, waist circumference and blood biochemical indexes were expressed in the form of mean ± standard deviation, and the differences among different groups were compared by variance analysis. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents aged 7 to 17 years.
RESULTS:
The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents was 6.56%, 7.18% in boys and 5.97% in girls. The risk of metabolic syndrome was higher in the catch-down growth group than in the normal growth group (OR=1.417, 95%CI: 1.19-1.69), and lower in the catch-up growth group(OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.53-0.82). After adjusting for gender, age and so on, the risk of developing metabolic syndrome in the catch-down growth group was higher than that in the normal growth group (OR=1.25, 95%CI: 1.02-1.52), but there was no significant difference between the catch-up growth group and the normal growth group (OR=0.79, 95%CI: 0.62-1.01). Stratified analysis showed that the association between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome was statistically significant in the 7-12 years group, urban population, and Han Chinese student population.
CONCLUSION
There is a correlation between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents. The risk of developing metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents with catch-down growth is higher than that in the normal growth group, which suggests that attention should be paid to the growth and development of children and adolescents, timely correction of delayed growth and prevention of adverse health outcomes.
