During the recent decade, the advanced medical technology has brought the rapid development in the dentoalveolar surgery, and the medical concepts of humanity, painless, minimally invasive, safe and comfortable are gradually accepted by the patients and doctors. Many advanced techniques and equipments have been used in the dentoalveolar surgery. This paper would like to make a review on the clinical application and experience of the advanced medical technologies in the tooth extraction, such as the general anaesthetic technique, the nitrous oxide sedative technique, the computer-controlled local anesthesia delivery devices, the electrocardiogram montior, the location of embedded tooth by cone beam CT and minimally invasive surgical technique. Additionally, in this paper we also described the indication, contraindication, advantages and operating essentials of the orthodontic traction technique, ultrasonic bone surgery (piezosurgery) device and the surgery technology for alveolar bone shape and functional preservation in the extraction of tooth. Finally, we introduced the immediate implantation technique used in the dentoalveolar surgery.

OBJECTIVE: A series of Bobath concept, Bobath theoretical hypothesis and clinical practice were summarized, to proVide a better understanding of Bobath concept involved in nervous tissues repairing and functional reconstruction. METHODS: Articles concerning the Bobath treatment for stroke-related literature were retrieved in Highwire press, MEDLINE, and Google from 2001 to 2009, using the key words of "Bobath concept, stroke physical therapy". Data of each study were extracted and analyzed following retrieval. Inclusion criteria:①Bobath concept and its theoretical hypothesis. ②New development of Bobath concept in clinical practice. Exclusion criteria: Repetitive studies. The results of retrieved literatura were analyzed. RESULTS: The theoretical basis of Bobath concept is based on present-day knowledge of motor control, motor learning, neural and muscle plasticity, and biomechanics. The latest theories and viewpoints are rasourced from International Bobath Instructors Training Association and the British Bobath Tutors Association. They expounded on the Bobath concept from linking participation, activities and underlying impairments, organization of human behavior and motor control, the consequences of injury and dysfunction in the execution of movement, neural and muscle plasticity, motor learning and so. This article also discusses several important questions which meet in clinical practice. CONCLUSION: Bobath therapy, as a traditional method for stroke rehabilitation, is constantly absorbing the research results from current neuroscience, psychology and other disciplines, and blended with other treatments to promote the development of neuro-rehabilitation medicine.

Objective To observe the effect of sensory reeducation on the motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) in stroke patients with proprioceptive disturbance. Methods Sixty patients with proprioceptive disturbance after stroke were randomly divided into the treatment group and observation group, and 30 stroke patients with no proprioception disturbance were recruited as the controls. Three groups were treated with routine rehabilitation interventions, but the treatment group were given sensory reeducation in addition to the regular treatment. Fugl-Meyer motor assessment scale (FMA) and sensory assessment scale, and with Barthel index (MBI) for activities of daily living (ADL) were used to evaluate the patients before and after treatment. Results FMA and MBI scores of patients in three groups were increased significantly (P<0.01) after treatment. The scores of patients in observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group and treatment group (P<0.01). Those of the treatment group and the control group were with no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion The proprioception disturbance significantly affects the rehabilitation process, and sensory reeducation can improve the sensory function, motor function and activities of daily living (ADL).

Pancreaticobiliary maljunction(PBM)is closely related to many surgical diseases in which are commonly seen in clinical practice.However,diagnosis of PBM is difficult and it is easily missed.The lack of knowledge and awareness of PMB has once made PBM “the forgotten corner of abdominal surgery”.This essay summarized the current knowledge on the diagnosis of PBM by medical imaging.

Lactate is considered a dead-end product of glycolysis.Its generation and accumulation promotes tumor growth and metastasis,and it is related to the poor prognosis of tumor.But recent studies have found,tumor cells can also uptake and utilize lactate.With the recent advances in tumor metabolism and gene therapy,lactate is a potential therapeutic target in tumors.

Objective To compare complication,nutritional status and quality of life between total gastrectomy and jejuna interposition after proximal radical gastrectomy in patients with advanced proximal gastric carcinoma.Methods Eighty-five patients with proximal stomach cancer were enrolled from Jan.2002 to Dec.2008,total gastrectomy group(Control group) had 40 cases,jejuna interposition after proximal radical gastrectomy(Experimental group) included 45 cases.Nutritional status,incidence of reflux esophagitis and cholecystolithiasis,5-year survival rate,quality of life were investigated.Results There was no significant difference in 5-year survival rate between two groups(P ＞ 0.05).Incidence of reflux esophagitis in Experimental group was significantly lower than that in Control group(P =0.042).Incidence of cholecystolithiasis in Experimental group was significantly lower than that in Control group (P =0.038).Hemoglobin,albumin,vitamin B12 and ferritin in Experimental group were significantly higher than those in Control group[(142.2 ±8.6) vs (128.4 ±8.4),(41.3 ±5.8) vs (35.9 ±3.8),(271.5 ± 49.7) vs (184.5 ± 24.6),(220.2 ± 59.7) vs (170.2 ± 27.6),P =0.036,0.024,0.032,0.026].Diet and labor in Experimental group were better than those in Control group (P =0.042,0.048).Conclusion Jejuna interposition after proximal radical gastrectomy decrease incidences of reflux esophagitis and cholecystolithiasis,improve nutritional status and quality of life.

[Objective]To probe the research and treatment for Hashimoto thyroiditis in Th1/Th2 migration.[Methods]By referring to related literature from both home and abroad,the author tries to analyze and sort the literature and comes to a reasonable conclusion. [Result]There is a lot of experimental re-search on correction of Hashimoto thyroiditis Th1/Th2 migration at home and abroad,but less clinical treatment research.[Conclusion]Th1/Th2 cellmigra-tion is one of the reasons for Hashimoto thyroiditis.It can promote the development of the disease, have something to do with the rise of thyroid autoanti-bodies.

Endogenous carbon monoxide (CO) is proposed to be an intracellular signaling molecule. As a new gaseous messenger, CO shares with nitric oxide (NO) the ability of modulating neuroendocrine function and inducing vasorelaxation, mainly by stimulating soluble guanylate cyclase and regulating the level of cGMP. This review emphasized the endogenous source of CO and the interaction of CO- and NO-generating systems. It also discussed the biological effects of CO and the underlying mechanisms.

Objective To study the antidepressant effect of Yiyukang and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods By using the mice forced-swimming models,mice tail suspension models and mice stereotyped behavior models,the antidepressant effect of Yiyukang and its mechanism were observed.Result In the mice forced-swimming test,the im- mobility-time was significantly reduced by high and medium dosage Yiyukang with the reduced rate being 21.65% and 24.84%(P＜0.01).The high dosage can also reduce the immobility time of tail-suspension mice with the rate of 29.58%(P＜0.01).Yiyukang can strengthen the mice head shaking behavior and had synergistic action with 5- HTP on reducing stereotyped behavior in mice.Conclusion Yiyukang has certain antidepressant effect,and the mecha- nism may be associated with promoting the actions of 5-hydroxytryptamine and dopamine in mice brain.
