Objective:To evaluate the shoulder functions of four groups of patients who underwent different kinds of neck dissections.Methods:40 patients who underwent neck dissection were included,7 patients preserved both accessory nerve and the cervical branches,8 preserved accessory nerve,11 preserved cervical branches and 14 sacrificed both of them.All patients were assessed subjectively at 2 weeks and 6 months after operation,using a questionnaire and an electromyograghy method.Results:The patients whose accessory nerves were preserved had a significant functional rehabilitation of the shoulder,while those who preserved only the cervical branches had a better result than the RND 6 months postoperation.Conclusion: Preservation of the branches from C2-C4 to trapezius muscle during the modified neck dissection should be taken into consideration to improve shoulder functions.

Objective To explore the influence of individualized nursing intervention on life quality of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Methods 60 patients were divided into the intervention group and the control group with 30 cases in each group. The intervention group adopted individualized nursing projects according to the influencing factors of life quality based on routine nursing. The control group received routine nursing only. The life quality of the two groups was appraised by inventory before and after intervention. Results The status such as physiological function, mental function, social function and self-recognized health in the intervention group was greatly ameliorated and was statistically different from that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Individualized nursing intervention could dramatically improve the life quality of patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Objective To explore the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met polymorphism,environmental factor and their interactions on antidepressant treatment.Methods 340 patients of major depressive disorder (MDD) who met the diagnosis criteria of MDD ( DSM-Ⅳ Axis Ⅰ) were recruited.280 patients of them were finished 12 weeks antidepressant treatment.The severity of depression was measured with the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) before and after 12 weeks antidepressant treatment.Childhood Trauma Questionnaire,28-item Short Form (CTQ-SF) and Life Events Scale (LES) were used to evaluate childhood adverse and life stress before onset.Genotyping of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism was detected by Illumina GoldenGate assays.Results Male patients proportion were significantly higher in non-remitters than remitters (P =0.008 ).After adjusting by gender, the frequencies of genotype and allele for the BDNF Val66Met polymorphism were no significant difference between remitters (AA: AG: GG = 28: 79: 40, A:G = 135:159 ) and non-remitters (AA: AG: GG = 29:81:23 ,A: G = 139:127 ) (P ＞0.05 ).There was no significant difference of CTQ scores and LES scores between the two groups (P＞0.05 ).The regression analysis showed that social intercourse problem and age were the risk factor for the severity of depression.The gender, HDRS baseline scores and mental disorder family history were associated with the efficacy of 12 weeks antidepressant.However,there was no significantly relationship between the interaction of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and environment with the antidepressant treatment.Conclusion The older men with the mental disorder family history, severe depression symptom would be less-response to antidepressant treatment.However, BDNF Val66Met polymorphism, childhood trauma, life events stress and the interaction of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and environment have no significantly effect on the 12 weeks antidepressant treatment.

Surgical resection with adequate margins is an essential component of the treatment for patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). A distance of 5 mm or more between healthy tissue to the tumor front is generally accepted as a safe margin. It is very important for surgeons to precisely evaluate the resection area of tumor both pre- and intra-operatively and try to achieve a safe margin, which will result in a decreased risk of local recurrence. The relationship of surgical margin status to patients' prognosis, and factors which will affect surgical margin distance demand are discussed in this paper. We recommend that adequate margins evaluation should take consideration of many factors such as anatomical location, depth of tumor invasion, pattern of tumor invasion, mucosal dysplasia grade and so on. With the development of molecular biology, surgical margin study at molecular level can give us a new strategy to evaluate its adequacy.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and accuracy using digital surgical guide to position the jaws in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. Methods: 16 patients with dento-maxillofacial deformity were included from January to December 2018 in Nanjing Stomatological Hospital. There were 10 males and 6 females, all of which were skeletal Ⅲ deformity. The mean age was 21.3 years old (16 to 28 years). They were divided into digital guide (group A) and traditional model surgery (group B) according to the treatment sequence. All patients underwent both Lefort Ⅰ osteotomy and bilateral ascending sagittal split. Virtual surgery was performed and digital three-dimensional surgical template was printed before surgery in group A. During the operation, digital surgical templates were used to position maxilla and mandible. The accuracy was evaluated by generating color distribution map of deviation grade, which was imaging fusion of virtual surgical jaw position and actual surgical jaw position to measure the deviation distance of each marker point one week after surgery. The deviations between the preoperative design and the actual operation were compared with the t-test respectively in group A and group B, and the independent sample t test was chosen to compared the accuracy of reduction between the two groups in sagittal, horizontal, and vertical directions. Results: All 16 patients had primary healing. The maximum deviation of the patients in group A was at U6. The deviation direction was vertical, and the deviation distance was (1.67±0.32) mm. In group A, the deviation distances of all marker points in the sagittal, horizontal and vertical directions were (0.55±0.26) mm (t=2.985, P=0.205), (0.62±0.20) mm (t=2.672, P=0.193) and (1.07±0.62) mm (t=5.122, P=0.823), respectively. The result in group B was (0.63±0.28) mm(t=3.397, P=0.307), (0.71±0.42) mm (t=4.438, P=0.541) and (1.82±0.36) mm (t=1.115, P=0.021) in these directions. There was no significant difference between two groups in the sagittal (t=4.704, P=0.763) and lateral (t=4.008, P=0.615) directions, and the difference in the vertical (t=1.432, P=0.037) direction was statistically significant. Conclusions The digital guides were feasible to position jaws accurately in orthognathic surgery.
