Objective To histomorphometricly assess changes occurred in the alveolar ridge following different methods of socket preservation and to compare them against natural healing without interventions. Methods The second、 third and fourth mandibular premolars were extracted from six beagles. Six extraction sites in each dog were randomly assigned to three treatments as follows:natural healing (T1), Bio-Oss Collagen (T2) and immediate implant with Bio-Oss (T3). Six month after surgery, the dogs were euthanized and tissue samples were sectioned, fixed and mounted, then were stained with toluidine blue. The histologic studies and morphological measurements were performed by using an optical microscope and a digital image software. Results Reabsorption in the buccal aspect of the alveolar crest of ridge was showed in all groups. With respect to the mean vertical bone loss of the buccal bone plate, T3 is lower than T1 and T2(P<0.001 ), while no significant differences were observed between T1 and T2. With regard to horizontal dimension of the alveolar process , a statistical significance could be found at 3mm and 4mm below the crest of ridge in group T1 and T3(P=0.017, P=0.042), while no statistical differences were found between other groups. Conclusions Both techniques of alveolar ridge preservation were not able to completely preserve the original bone volume after tooth extraction. Immediate implant placement in combination with Bio-Oss seems to have the potential to limit the reabsorption of the alveolar process efficiently , but the bone preserving effect of Bio-Oss Collagen is undesirable.

Objective:To study the change rule of rats'pulse waves after kidney resection.Methods:To collect the pulse waves of femoral artery in each side of rats in Drugged state.Then do one-side kidney resection operation,after fully recover from it,collect the pulse waves again.To average the pulse waves in the same cycle length and then do the LSQ regression by 6 harmonics which are correspond with the cycle lengths,analyze the phase and the amplitude of vibration of fundamental wave and harmonics by statistical method.Results:The amplitude of vibration of the 3rd harmonics of pulse waves of femoral artery in the same side with operation and the amplitude of vibration of the 1st to 5th harmonics of pulse waves of femoral artery in the other side with operation has reinforced, the phase of the 1st and 2nd harmonics also have changed regularly.Conclusion:There're some regular changes in the pulse waves of rats after one-side kidney resection operation,which shows that the pulse waves of artery on the body surface can reflect the splanchnic changes.This research can offer some scientific foundation to the pulse-diagnosis in TCM.

Objective To investigate the clinical and mammographic features of plasma cell mastitis.Methods Twenty-five patients(28 lesions)with histologically confirmed plasma cell mastitis, aged from 26 to 70 years(mean age 41 years),were examined with X-ray mammography.The clinical manifestations and imaging features were retrospectively reviewed.Results No case was in lactation.The painful irregular masses,ranged from 1.3 to 8cm in size,were found in 22 patients,while 3 patients with acute episode.Recurrent episodes of breast masses were noted in 4 patients.Based on the mammographic appearances,the plasma cell mastitis were classified as the following four types:inflammation-like type (2/28),ductal ectasia type(3/28),focal infiltration type(10/28)and nodular type(13/28).The valuable radiogyaphic signs:(1)An asymmetrically increased density along the lactiferous duct with a flame-like appearance,inhomogeneous low density tubular structures and scattered stick-shape calcifications.(2) Architectural distortion and oil cysts formation in adjacent area,(3)Subareolar ductal ectasia.Conclusions The clinical and mammographic characteristics of plasma cell mastitis are critical to avoiding unnecessary surgery.Histopathological result is needed for the diagnosis in patients highly suspected of malignancy.

Purpose To explore the immunohistochemical features of neuroendocrine markers, CKpan and TTF-1 and their relationship to TNM stage and prognosis in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Methods The expression of NSE, CgA, Syn, CD56, TTF-1 and CK-pan in SCLC tissue specimens were detected using immunohistochemical EnVision indirect method. Clinical data and TNM stage of 90 patients were collected and the overall survival ( OS) was followed up by telephone. Results Of 90 cases of SCLC, the vast majority were occured in the elderly men. The ratio of man to woman was 5 to 1. The median age was 64 years old. The stageⅠ+Ⅱ was 21 cases, 30 in stageⅢand 39 cases in stage IV. The positive rate of immunohistochemical staining of neuroendocrine markers for NSE, CgA, Syn and CD56 were 83. 3%, 70%, 65. 5% and 86%, respectively. The positive rate of CKpan, TTF-1 were 92. 2% and 81. 1%. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that the expression of TTF-1 and NSE were significantly correlated with the TNM stage and over-all survival of patients with SCLC (P<0. 05). The median OS was 8 months in positive expression of TTF-1, which was higher than those in negative expression of TTF1 (5. 5 months)(P=0. 000). The median OS was 7 months in NSE positive expression which was lower than those in negative expression of NSE (11 months)(P=0. 009). The median OS of stageⅠ+Ⅱ,ⅢandⅣwere 16 months, 9 months and 4 months with significant difference ( P=0. 000 ) . Cox multivariate analysis indicated the TTF-1 expression and TNM were independent prognostic factors for the OS of the SCLC patients. Conclusion Most of SCLC has neuroendocrine differentiation, expression CKpan and TTF-1. The expression of TTF-1 may be negative correlation but NSE positive correlation with the prognosis of SCLC patients. And the TTF-1 expression and TNM may be independent prognostic factors for the OS of the SCLC patients.
