A volunteer was scanned by spiral CT,the Dicom format images were imported into Mimics software to reconstruct 3-D mandibular model,then optimized by Geomagic and meshed in Ansys software. A good geometric precise three-dimensional finite element model was constructed. The displacement of dentition was similar with clin-ical situation by computer.

Although chronic lateral instability of the ankle is a common disorder, there are not many reports and researches on it in China. This is because most patients with the condition do not seek a thorough cure of it and consequently surgeons pay little attention to it. In this article, we discuss some of the problems about its diagnosis, describe and compare several surgical procedures for reconstruction of the lateral ligament. We hope this paper can help surgeons know more about how to make an accurate diagnosis of the chronic lateral instability of the ankle and how to deal with it.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of astragalosideⅣ pretreatment against liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice.MethodsSixty male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into four groups (15 mice in each group):group A:sham surgery with saline injection,group B:sham surgery with astragalosideⅣ injection,group C:I/R group with saline injection,group D:I/R and astragalosideⅣ injection.Mice were pretreated by daily intraperitoneal injection of saline or astragalosideⅣ (24 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for one week.The mouse partial liver model of I/R injury was established,and samples were collected at the 24 h after the I/R injury.Serum ALT and AST levels were determined,the histologic changes were observed by H&E staining under the light microscopy,whereas the nuclear factor (NF)-κB was assessed with Western blotting.Serum IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ResultsSerum ALT and AST levels significantly decreased and the histological damage was significantly alleviated in astragalosideⅣ treated I/R group as compared with saline I/R group [ AST:C:(4290± 292) U/L vs.D:(2373± 416) U/L t =0.844 ; ALT:C:(4146±500) U/L vs.D:(2318±289) U/L t =7.08 P <0.05].In comparison with group 3,astragalosideⅣ reduced NF-κB nuclear expression.ELISA showed astragalosideⅣ significantly inhibit the levels of IL-1 β,IL-6,and TNF-α in the serum (IL-1β:t =10.04;IL-6:t =6.281;TNF-α:t =6.817; P <0.05).ConclusionsPretreatment with astragaloside Ⅳ effectively protect against liver ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characterization , effect of prevention and control measures during an outbreak in a military unit caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae.Methods All the cases were investigated to learn about their basic characteristics , clinical symptoms and aggregation activities using epidemiological cross-sectional study . Results From May 16 to June 11,2013, forty-nine confirmed cases and thirty-five suspected cases who were all males were found at an attack rate of 7.8%.The epidemic peak period was from May 27 to Jun 2(seven days), and the number of total cases was 66(75.9%).During the outbreak, the attack rate of the 10th cadet team, other cadet teams and a non-student population was 47.5%, 4.5% and 1.2% respectively.The difference was significant (P<0.01).The age of forty-nine confirmed cases ranged from 17 to 26 years old , the attack rate did not differ significantly between different age groups, and no aggregation was found in the place of birth and soldier source .The most frequent clinical symptoms were fever and cough for the confirmed cases , 62.5% of whom showed unilateral or bilateral lung inflammation change , while few positive lung symptoms were present .All the confirmed cases were hospitalized and no severe or critically ill cases were present.The outbreak was controlled effectively after implementation of case surveillance , contact precaution , termination of aggregation activities , dispersed habitation and prescription of azithromycin for disease prevention .Conclusion The confined and crowed environment for learning and training can increase the risk of M.pneumoniae outbreak , making it nec-essary to enhance disease prevention awareness , improve case management , live dispersed , reduce close contact and imple-ment personal hygienic measures .

Objective To compare the result of percutaneous or open drainage for muhilocular bacterial liver abscess. Methods The clinical data of 45 patients with multilocular bacterial liver abscess were reviewed retrospectively over the past 5 years. Twenty-one cases underwent B-us or CT-guided pereutaneons drainage (PD) and 24 received surgical drainage (SD) as the first-line treatment. The treatment outcomes in both groups were compared, and clinical end-points included time to defervescence, failure of treatment, secondary procedures, hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality. Results The time of defervesecnce was not statistically different between the two groups (4.85 day vs. 4.38 days, P>0.05). However, patients in SD group suffered from less treatment failures (2 cases vs. 9 cases, P<0.05), less requirement for secondary procedures (1 cases vs. 11 cases,P<0.01), and shorter hospital stay (8 day vs. 11 days, P<0.05). There was no difference in morbidity or mortality rates between the two groups. Conclusions It was concluded that for multilocular liver abscess, SD provides better clinical outcomes than PD in terms of treatment success, number of secondary procedures, and hospital stay with comparable morbidity and mortality rates. SD should be considered as first-line treatment for multilocular bacterial liver abscesses.

A description of the concept,origin and development,and key contents of the system safety theory,and an analysis of the presence and future of China's medical safety management,holding that such a theory enjoys a promising perspective in medical safety managemenL Medical safety management needs to follow such a theory as fl guideline,and its principles to set system safety objectives,and to determine the scope of the safety system_By building a comprehensive feedback mechanism,clarifying the responsibility borders and advocating a safety culture,medical safety management can be significantly upgraded.
