Objective To investigate the effects of bisphosphonate on the proliferator-activated receptor γ(PRARγ)expression of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. Methods ① Twenty-two cases of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)patients with glucocorticoids(＞0.5 mg·kg-1 ·d-1)were divided into 2 groups: 9 cases in the treatment group in which patients received alendronate 70 mg qw., 13 cases in the control group without anti-osteoporosis treatment. All of the patients had bone marrow puncture after 24 weeks, bone tissues were embedded, sliced, and the value of average optical density of PPARγwas tested with immunohistochemistry. ② Human bone mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in the same conditions and stimulated to adipocytes. During the adipogenic process, the cells were divided into four groups, three of which were experimental groups treated with 10-5 mol/L(high-dose group), 10-7 mol/L(medium-dose group)and 10-9 mol/L(low-dose group)bisphosphonate respectively, while the other was the control group without bisphosphonate in the medium. The adipocytes were identified by oil Red O stain seven days later. The adipocyte rate was measured by light absorption at 515 nm. The expression of PPARγ was measured by quantitative PCR. Comparisons between groups were tested by One-Way ANOVA analysis and t test. Results The average optical density of PPAR-gamma immunohistochemistry in the treatment group was less than the control group(P＜0.05). Seven days later, the absorbance between adipogenic induction group and low-dose group was not significant(P=0.167). but the adipogenic absorbance between the high-dose group, middle dose group and the control groups(P values were 0, 0.041). There was significant difference in the quantitative PCR results between the high-dose group, middle dose group and the expression of PPARγ adipogenic induction group(P value was 0, 0.01), but there was no significant differences between the low-dose group and adipogenic induction group(P＞0.05). Conclusion Effective concentrations of bisphosphonate can inhibit the expression of PPARγ which in turn lead to the suppression of hMSCs to the adipocytes. The glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is also depressed.

Abstract:Objective To study the pathogen of root surface caries in the elderly. Methods Plaque samples from the experimental group and the control group were collected. After culturing in selective and non-selective media, the different bacteria were isolated. The counts and the positive rates of total bacteria, porphyromonas group, pervotella group, streptococcus mutants group, actinomyces group and lactobacillus group were compared.Results The counts of total bacteria, streptococcus mutants, actinomyces and lactobacillus of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group. The positive rates of actinomyces and lactobacillus of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group. Conclusion Actinomyces and lactobacillus are the main related pathogens of root surface caries in the elderly.

Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic bacteria in urinary tract infection (UTI)so as to provide evidence for appropriate selection of antimicrobial agents in clinical practice. Methods From January 2001 to December 2008 in Shanghai Ruijin Hospital,4683 strains of pathogenic bacteria isolated from urine samples were detected by ATB system;drug susceptibility test was performed with disk diffusion method and pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug resistance was analyzed with WHO NET 5.3 software. Results Among 4683 strains of pathogenic bacteria,most was gramnegative bacilli,accounting for about 77.8%,of which predominant strain was Escherichia coli (68.7%,3217/4683).The predominant strain of gram-positive bacteria was Enterococcus faecalis,accounting for 10.0%(468/4683).Escherichia coli showed hish resistance rotes to ampicillin,piperacillin and compound snlfamethoxazole(SMZ-TMP),which were 76.6%,61.7%and 57.4%respectively,while a low resistance to imipenem,cefoperazone-sulbactam,piperacillin-tazobactam,Enterococcus faecalis showed high resistance rates to erythromycin,gentamicin and levofloxacin,which were 65.8%,43.2%and 31.1%respectively,and were most susceptive to vancomycin and teicoplanin, both with resistance rates of 0. The susceptibility rate of Enterobacteriaceae to imipenem was 100%. From 2006 to 2008, the detection rate of extend-spectrum β-lactamases ESBLs -producing Escherichia coil in outpatient increased year by year, from 28.7% to 43.3% (P＜0.05), whereas no significant change was found in inpatients. The detection rate of (ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coil in inpatients was significantly higher than that in outpatients (P＜0.05).The detection rate of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coil was 23.6%. The antimicrobial resistance rate in elderly patients was significantly higher than that in overall antimicrobial resistance rote (P＜0.05). Conclusions The predominant bacteria of UTI are still gram-negative bacteria, main of which is Escherichia col. Bacteria are resistant to a variety of antibiotics. Approximate selection of antibiotics in clinical practice should be made on the basis of susceptibility test results.

OBJECTIVEThe purpose of this study is to compare the fracture strengths of custom-fabricated Celay all-ceramic post-core, custom cast metal post-core, and prefabricated stainless steel post (Parapost) plus composite resin core with or without a 2.0 mm dentine ferrule.

METHODSA total of 60 recently extracted human maxillary central incisors were endodontically treated and divided into five groups of 12. They were given the following treatments: Group A: Celay ceramic post-core with 2.0 mm dentine ferrule, Group B: Celay ceramic post-core with no dentine ferrule, Group C: cast metal post-core with 2.0 mm dentine ferrule, Group D: cast metal post-core with no dentine ferrule, and Group E: prefabricated post and composite core with 2.0 mm dentine ferrule. All specimens were stored at 100% humidity at room temperature for 30 days before testing. Each specimen was in a special jig at a 45 degrees angle to the long axis and subjected to a load on MTS 810 universal material testing machine until failure, with crosshead speed of 0.02 cm/min. Analysis of variance followed by the Newman-Keuls pairwise multiple comparison test was used to compare the results of the groups tested.

RESULTSThere was a statistically significant difference between five groups (P < 0.01). Celay ceramic post-core with 2.0 mm dentine ferrule (758.35 N +/- 119.26 N) and cast metal post-core with 2.0 mm dentine ferrule (756.63 N +/- 166.22 N) had a significantly larger mean failure threshold for fracture than the other three groups which had no significant difference between each other. There was a statistically significant difference between the fracture resistance of Celay post-core restored teeth with and without 2.0 mm dentine ferrule.

CONCLUSIONThe custom-fabricated Celay post-core could be a choice for clinical use in endodontically treated tooth when the final restoration is an all-ceramic crown and the preparation has a 2.0 mm dentine ferrule.
