Periodontal ligament may have independent response to orthodontic stimulation and thus initiate alveolar bone osteogenesis and osteoclasts. Orthodontic-induced alveolar bone remodeling has no bone loss,while inflammation can lead to alveolar bone loss,suggesting that force signal and inflammatory factors may induce the differentiation of undifferentiated cells in the periodontal ligament via different pathways. The strength of the force and the nature of the force (basal tension and fluid shear force) may affect the differentiation of periodontal ligament cells,and may produce antagonistic or synergistic effect with the inflammatory factors through complex autocrine and paracrine regulation,resulting in local bone reconstruction,which is manifested as bone deposition and bone absorption. Studies have shown that Wnt signaling is an important regulatory pathway for osteoblast differentiation. Inflammatory factors can block the differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts. The Wnt pathway is closely related to the effects of force and inflammatory factors on the differentiation of periodontal ligament cells.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of thread-embedding at scalp points in treating insomnia.Method Sixty-four insomnia patients were randomized into a treatment group of 33 cases and a control group of 31 cases. The treatment group was intervened by thread-embedding at scalp points, while the control group was by orally taking Estazolam. Four weeks were taken as a treatment course, and the clinical efficacies and changes of indexes were measured after a treatment course.Result The total effective rate was 90.0% in the treatment group versus 90.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). The item scores of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were changed significantly after treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The changes of sleep latency and daily function disturbance in the treatment group were significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Thread-embedding at scalp points and oral administration of Estazolam both can improve insomnia symptoms. Thread-embedding at scalp points is inferior to Estazolam in improving sleep latency but is superior to Estazolam in improving daily function.

Aim: To study the hydrofluoroalkane-driven(HFA-134a) salbutamol sulfate (SS) MDI formulation compositions and the respiratory tract absorption in rats. Methods: Solubility determination and orthogonal design were used to aid the screening of non-CFC SS MDI formulations. Rats were exposed to SS MDI via intubation inhalation. Fluorescent HPLC detection was developed to determine plasma SS concentration in rats given the selected SS MDI formulations. Analysis of the plasma drug level-time profiles was performed by the statistical moment approach. Results: Stable and homogeneous non-CFC SS MDI formulations were obtained. The developed HPLC method was validated and used to assay SS levels in the rats after inhalation of the MDI. AUC ratios of the SS/HFA-134a-driven MDI formulation to the reference SS MDI and CFC SS MDI formulation were 109. 86% and 135. 54%, respectively. Conclusion: It is proven that the absorption of the HFA-134a SS MDI formulation in rats is equivalent to the simulant formulation commercially available oversea and better than CFC formulation.

Pediatric head injury is the leading cause of death and disability,about 40% to 60% of kids of head injury get a CT,and the majority are those with minor head injury,about 10% of these CT scans are positive.Clinical decision rules for pediatric head injury exist to identify children at risk of traumatic brain injury.Those of the highest quality are children's head injury algorithm for the prediction of important clinical events(CHALICE),Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network(PECARN)and the Canadian as-sessment of tomography for childhood head injury(CATCH)clinical decision rules.This review aimed to systematically introduce primary clinical decision rules for children with minor head injury and compare them for diagnostic accuracy in detecting intracranial injury and injury requiring neurosurgery.

Objective:To observe the effectiveness and security of piperacillin sodium/sulbactam sodium in the treatment of bacte-rial infections and perform the pharmacoeconomics evaluation. Methods: Totally 126 patients with hand trauma bacterial infections were divided into the control group and the treatment group. The control group was given piperacillin sodium/tazobactam sodium 2. 5g, ivd, bid, while the treatment group was treated with piperacillin sodium/sulbactam sodium 1. 25g, ivd, bid. After 14-day treatment, the clinical therapeutic effect and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed, and the cost-minimization analysis was carried out. Results:The effective rate of the treatment group was 93. 65%while that of the control group was 92. 06%(P>0. 05). The bac-terial clearance rate of the treatment group was 96. 83%while that of the control group was 95. 24% (P>0. 05). The incidence of ad-verse reactions of the treatment group was 4. 76% (3/63) while that of the control group was 9. 52%(P>0. 05). The cost-effective-ness of piperacillin/sulbactam was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: The effectiveness and safety of the two groups show no obvious differences in the treatment of hand trauma bacterial infections, and both have good antibacte-rial effect with low incidence of adverse reactions. For the better economic benefits, piperacillin /sulbactam is worthy of promoted ap-plication.

Objective To understand true feelings of patients with malignant tumor after implementing the protective medical treatment.In order to provide more humanized service for clinical nursing and to improve the job satisfaction of nurses.Methods The phenomenological methods of qualitative research was applied to carry out interviews with 12 patients to collected data.Then the data were analyzed.Results After reading,analysis,reflection,classification and refining the theme,we drew the following themes:(1)Before knowing diagnosis:half-believe and anxiety.(2) At the time of knowing diagnosis:luck,avoidance,acceptance and facing; (3) After knowing diagnosis:thirsting for information,low self-worth,improving self motivation.Conclusions We should not insist on hiding malignant tumor patients.Individualized and targeted measures should be taken to make patients cope with diagnosis better and improve the quality of their life.

Objective The experimental condition of PEG precipitation pre-treatment method associated with electrochemiluminescence was optimized to gain a coincident result compared with gel chromatography method.Methods A fixed centrifuge time,optimized centrifuge speed,temperature and iron intensity were used to achieve a best experimental condition.Results The detection concentration of micromolecular PRL was approximate to gel chromatography method under the experimental condition of being centrifuged 10 minutes at 18℃ and pretreated with 25%PEG 6000 1M PBS.Conclusions The optimized PEG precipitation test united with the electrochemillumescence immunoassy was a good method for screening macroprolactinemia in clinical diagnosis.

Objective To explore the design of pressure on breast for taking molybdenum target mammography after female's breast augmentation surgery.Methods The molybdenum target mammography in 26 patients were undergone breast augmentation surgery with hydrophilic polyacrylamide gel(HPAG) was performed under different breast pressure,the enduring ability on breast pressure for patients and the quality of axial and oblique images were compared between different pressure on breast.Results As the pressure on breast was 14 dan,the quality of images was not good,and the patients felt no pain on breast;the pressure was 18 dan,the quality of images was fine,and the pain on breast could be endured by patients.As the pressure was 20 dan,the quality of images was still fine,but the pain on breast was obvious.Conclusion It is suitable choosing the pressure of 18 dan on breast to take molybdenum target mammography for patients after breast augmentation surgery with HPAG.

Particulate matter is one of the important factors that have adverse effects on human health. It is generally known that the fine particles are more toxic than coarse ones, but some researchers have different opinion. Based on the analysis of the opinions, the factors that may influence the adverse effects of particulate matter on human health, including surface characteristics and adsorbed components, were discussed in the present paper. This paper will be helpful for the assessment of the toxicity of particulate matter.
