BACKGROUND:Scholars have carried out a lot of research on the main cariogenic microorganisms, but there is stil no comprehensive and systematic evaluation. OBJECTIVE:To perform an evidence-based medicine analysis on the six main cariogenic microorganisms. METHODS:Literature about microbial factors and age factors of caries disease etiology were retrieved, which were published from 2011 to 2014 in the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Wanfang, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc), Chinese Journal Ful-text Database (CJFD) and VIP. Eligible studies were divided into two groups according to absorbance values: observation group (higher absorbance value) and control group (lower absorbance value). The probability of dental caries under the impact ofStreptococcus mutans, Lactobacilus microbe,Prevotela,Selenomonas,Capnocytophaga,Veilonelawere statisticaly analyzed using Meta-analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Eight articles were included in result analysis. Odds ratio (OR) values refer to the statistical difference in the probability of dental caries under same pathogenic factors between two groups:OR > 1 indicates the incidence of dental caries is higher in the observation group than the control group, andOR < 1 suggests the incidence of dental caries is lower in the observation group than the control group. Meta-analysis results showStreptococcus mutans (OR=2.41),Lactobacilus microbe (OR=1.68),Prevotela (OR=2.75),Capnocytophaga (OR=1.98),Selenomonas(OR=2.38), indicating that the probability of dental caries is higher in the observation group than the control group, and these microorganisms are greatly correlated with the occurrence and development of dental caries;Veilonela (OR=0.45), indicating the probability of dental caries is lower in the observation group than the control group, andVeilonela has smal correlation with dental caries and only plays an important role in a certain development stage of dental caries.

Objective To study the effects and mechanisms of molecular targeted drug combination on multi-driven proliferation hepatocellular carcinoma SK-Hep-1 cells. Methods Four molecular targeted drugs (HG6-64-1, Dasatinib, Crizotinib, and Sunitinib) were used to treat SK-Hep-1 cells, and the monophasic kinetic analysis curve and two-phase analysis curve were drawn. Western blot analysis was used to detect the effects of the above drugs on key signaling pathways in SK-Hep-1 cells. MTT assay was used to detect the effects of the above drugs and their combination on the proliferation of SK-Hep-1 cells. Results Compared with the monophasic kinetic analysis curve, the biphase analysis curve could better fit the effects of molecular targeted drugs on SK-Hep-1 cells, which predicted that the combination of HG6-64-1, Dasatinib, and MK-2206 could effectively inhibit the proliferation of SK-Hep-1 cells. Conclusion Two-phase kinetic analysis can quantitatively describe the response of multi-driven proliferation hepatocellular carcinoma SK-Hep-1 cells to molecular targeted therapy. The combination of HG6-64-1, Dasatinib, and MK-2206 is a potential drug combination for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
