This study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of solution form of 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) on removing smear layer of root canals at different exposure time periods and to provide scientific basis for EDTA as a choice of root canal irrigation in clinical practice. Twenty-five single-rooted teeth were randomly divided into 5 groups: control group (group A) was given 2.5% NaOCl, and 4 experimental groups were given 2.5% NaOCl and 17% EDTA, including groups B, C, D and E with exposure time of 1, 3, 5 and 7 min, respectively. After preparation of the root canals, the teeth were split along their longitudinal axis, and the root sections were examined under scanning electron microscope for evaluation of smear layer removal and erosion on the surface of the root canal walls. The specimens in group B showed presence of smear layer on the walls of the root canal with no statistical difference from that in group A (P>0.05). In groups C and D, partial removal of smear layer was obtained, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05), but there was significant difference in removal of smear layer between group C and group B (P<0.05). Root canal walls in group E specimens showed almost complete removal of smear layer, and the removal of smear layer was significantly different from that in group D (P<0.01). There was no significant change in the structure of the surface of root canal for each sample. It was concluded that combined irrigation with 17% EDTA and 2.5% NaOCl could remove the smear layer with no significant alteration in dentinal structure when the chelating agent was applied for 7 min. At 3 and 5 min of application, partial removal of smear layer was observed and at 1 min negligible removal of smear layer was achieved.

BACKGROUND:Based on variational principle and weighting technology of three-dimensional finite element method, human teeth with a complex morphology can be modeled, which helps to understand the stress distribution of dental hard tissue and prosthesis during the dynamic repair process. OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively analyze the three-dimensional finite element studies concerning biomechanics of dental prostheses, focusing on the effects of metal crown, porcelain thickness, root canal preparation and fil ing on the tooth stress. METHODS:A computer-based search of PubMed (1993-04/2012-09), China Academic Journal Network Publishing Database (2001-2008), and VIP (2001-2008) was performed by the first author to retrieve articles concerning the effects of metal crown, porcelain thickness, root canal preparation and fil ing on the tooth stress. The keywords were“porcelain-fused-to-metal, finite element method, stress analysis, root canal”in English and Chinese. Articles with repetitive contents or meta-analysis were ruled out. Then 40 articles were suitable for further analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Finite element method has important significance to establish high-fidelity and high-accuracy models in oral medicine, thereby providing effective biomechanical information for the root canal treatment and post-treatment repair. Scholars continue to explore the stress distribution of dental prostheses during chewing. This review summarizes the stress changes of post and core crowns, supporting reference for further research. Three-dimensional finite element method can be used to build nonlinear three-dimensional finite element models with anisotropic biomechanical characteristics, and can gradual yimprove the transition from static analysis to a dynamic analysis, truly achieving accurate simulation of oral biology and dental morphology as wel as chewing function of the teeth.

Objective: To explore the change of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and its correlation with forced expiratory volume in the ifrst second (FEV1), the ifrst second forced expiratory volume percentage of forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) in bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: FeNO, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC were measured in 57 suspected asthmatics (21 acute onsets, 12 non-acute and 24 non-asthma), 38 COPD patients (25 acute exacerbations and 13 stable stages) and 26 healthy subjects. Results: In the 57 suspected asthmatic patients, when the optimal cut off value of FeNO was 20.15 PPb, which was used to diagnose asthma and differentiate asthma and non-asthma, the positive predictive value, the negative predictive value, the sensitivity and the speciifcity was 94.1%, 95.7%, 97.0%, and 91.7% respectively. hTere was signiifcant difference in the FeNO level between the 33 asthmatics and 26 healthy subjects (P<0.05). There was also significant difference in the FeNO level between the acute onset and the non-acute (P<0.05), but not in the FEV1 and FEV1/FVC level (bothP>0.05). hTere was no signiifcant correlation between FeNO and FEV1, FEV1/FVC in patients with asthma (r=-0.186,-0.236, bothP>0.05). hTere was signiifcant difference in the levels of FeNO, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC between the 38 COPD patients and the 26 healthy subjects (all P<0.05), and also between the 25 acute exacerbations and 13 stable COPDs (allP<0.05), but not between the 13 stable COPDs and 26 healthy subjects (allP>0.05). FeNO was not correlated with FEV1 and FEV1/FVC level in COPD patients (r=-0.167,-0.285, bothP>0.05). Conclusion: FeNO level is increased obviously in patients with asthma. hTe optimal cut off value of FeNO at 20.15 PPb can differentiate asthma and non-asthma with high sensitivity and speciifcity. FeNO is higher for the acute onset than non-acute, which may be useful to evaluate the control degree. FeNO level is increased in COPD patients in the acute exacerbations, but there is no change in stable COPD patients compared with the healthy subjects.

Medical care on the battlefield is the core and basis of echelons of care.This review summarizes the background and characteristics of medical care units on the battlefield from the birth and growth of mobile army surgical hospitals before being replaced by forward surgical teams and combat support hospitals, since the United States Armed Forces began to lead the world military revolution during and after the World WarⅡ.Quick adaptation to the combat envi-ronment and the combat modes is the main reason that medical care units on the battlefield are adjusted continuously.This paper may provide some ideas for the development of our medical care units on the battlefield in the future.
