We analyzed the genetic characteristics of coxsackievirus A4 (CV-A4) based on the entire VP1 coding region. Samples were isolated from patients with acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) in Shaanxi, China from 2006 to 2010. We wished to ascertain the predominant genotype and the relationship between CV-A4 infection and AFP. Sixty-eight non-polio enteroviruses were inoculated onto RD cells (to increase the virus titer) and molecular typing was undertaken. The entire VP1 coding region was amplified. Percentage of CV-A4 was 10.3% (7/68). Analyses of genetic identify and creation of phylogenetic trees revealed that CV-A4 could be classified into A, B and C genotypes. Seven CV-A4 strains from Shaanxi and other CV-A4 strains from China formed an independent evolution lineage located in group 4 and belonged to the C2 sub-genotype. These data suggested that CV-A4 strains of sub-genotype C2 were the predominant genotypes in China. These strains co-evolved and co-circulated with those from other provinces in China, so continued monitoring of CV-A4 (by clinical and genetic surveillance) should be enhanced.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the role of the combined periodontic-orthodontic treatment in the esthetic reconstruc- tion of the anterior teeth area following periodontitis.
METHODSThirteen adult patients with anterior teeth displacements were treated. The probing pocket depth (PD; 102 teeth, 612 sites), bleeding on probing (102 teeth, 204 sites), papilla index (PI; 128 papillae), and papillary height (PH; 128 papillae) of each patient were assessed at baseline, 3 months after the initial therapy, and the end of the orthodontic treatment. Non-parametric and paired-sample t tests were carried out for the statistical analysis of the data.
RESULTSThree months after initial therapy, the sites with PD ≤ 3 mm accounted for 79.58% (487/612) of the observed teeth, and 88.73% (181/204) of the buccal and lingual sites of the teeth showed negative bleeding on probing. These findings were better than those at baseline [26.31% (161/612) and 22.06% (45/204), respectively] (P < 0.05), but no sig- nificant difference was observed compared with pro-orthodontic treatment (P > 0.05). Prior to orthodontic treatment, the levels of the PI of 8 and 21 papillae were III and II, respectively, among the 128 observed papillae. After the orthodontic treatment, 51 papillae were at level III and 68 papillae were at level II. The PH of the 102 papillae was 2.84 mm ± 0.62 mm after ortho- dontic treatment. This result indicated significant difference compared with that of pre-orthodontic treatment (1.69 mm ± 0.57 mm) (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONAfter initial therapy, moderate orthodontic teeth movements may reconstruct the interproximal soft tissue, with esthetic improvement of the papillary level and resolution of the periodontal defects.

Objective To explore the operative technique of liver retransplantation.Methods The clinical data of 24 patients who underwent liver retransplantation in the recent 4 years in our center were reviewed.In all of the patients a modified piggy-back liver transplantation was adopted.Extracorporeal venous bypass was used in 6 cases,and no bypass was used in 18 cases.We anastomosed the suprahepatic inferior vena cava to the annexed vena cava in a modified piggy-back figuration.The portal vein was reconstructed by end-to-end anastomosis.In 17 cases the hepaticy artery was anastomosed end-to-end,and in the other 7 cases was(anastomosed) to abdominal aorta by interposition graft.In 6 cases the biliary tract was reconstructed by(end-to-end) anastomosis,and in the others by choledochojejunostomy.All of the patients were routinely followed up after operation.Results Postoperative mortality of liver retransplantation was 41.6%(10/24).The cause of death was sepsis in 7 patients,intraoperative bleeding in 2,and cerebral hemorrhage in 1.The other patients(14/24,58.4%) successfully recovered after liver retransplantation.The complication rate in this group was 21.4%%(3/14),including biliary tract complications in 2 patients,and wound dehiscence in 1.Conclusions There was no significant difference in operative time and blood loss between liver(retransplantation) and primary transplantation.The key for success is to adopt individuation in selection of(methods) for liver retransplantation.The difficulty of liver retransplantation is exposure and mobilization of(inferior) vena cava. The probability of interposition graft from hepatic artery to abdominal aorta and(choledochojejunostomy) is higer than that of primary liver transplantation.
