Objective To analyze the stress state of magnetic attachment in mandibular complete overdenture supported by nature roots and implant, and to provide neference for designing of clinical prosthodentics. Methods Three-dimensional finite models (model,Ⅱ,Ⅲ)of three groups of mandibular overdentures depending on the different location of the implant and natural tooth root, placing three pairs of magnetic attachment, were constructed by application of CT scanning,computer photo processing system,and Solidworks finite element model building software.The natural teeth and implant neck bone stress of the models in three groups under different stress were calculated and compared.Results The stress of the bone around the implant in the area of molar teeth in model with both sides of the implants under oblique load (Model Ⅱ)was significantly increased compared with the model with one side of the implant (Model Ⅲ). The supporting bone stress of oblique load was increased compared with the vertical load;among them under the oblique load at one side’ s molar teeth, the stress of the bone around the implant in the area of molar teeth in modelⅠ,modelⅡ and model Ⅲ was increased about 30%, 43%,and 55%.Conclusion When there only one nature teeth remain,two implants should be at least added, one in the area of opposite cuspid, and the other in the area of molar teeth of the same side. The magnetic attachment is better than other kinds of attachment in preventing the damage of abutment when it suffers inclined load.

Objective To evaluate the dynamic changes in CD4 + CD25 high regulatory T cells (Treg), Foxp3, IL-10, IFN-γand IL-4, in peripheral blood of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) patients and the clinical significance. Methods From August 2008 to June 2009, 42 hospitalized SAP cases were divided by stage according to the course of disease: phase Ⅰ (the period of SIRS) ;phase Ⅱ (the period in which SIRS ends); phase Ⅲ ( the period during which complication related infection developes). Results were compared with those of hospitalized 38 mild acute pancreatitis(MAP) cases during the same period.Treg and Foxp3 were measured by flow cytometry, the levels of IFN-γ、IL-4 and IL-10 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA), and the relationships between these indicators were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis test. Results The percentages of Treg and levels of IL-4 increased in phase Ⅰ SAP(Treg: 1.37% ± 1.12% ;IL-4:22.92 ±4. 17) ,soared in phase Ⅱ (Treg:3.12% ± 1.21%;IL-4:35.42 ± 12. 50) ,culminated in phase Ⅲ( Treg:4. 47% ± 1.04%; IL-4:76. 04 ± 14. 58 ); IFN-γ level was the highest in phase Ⅰ SAP(978.57 ±213.29), decreased in phase Ⅱ (571.43 ± 157. 14) ,and the lowest in phase Ⅲ ( 357. 14 ± 150.00 ); The differences were statistically significant between the three periods(P<0.05). All that in these three periods were higher than that in MAP controls(P <0.05).Pearson correlation analysis test showed that quantities of Treg were negatively proportional to the levels of IFN-γ( r = - 0.895, P < 0.01 ), and positively proportional to the levels of IL-4 ( r = 0.813, P < 0.01 ).Conclusions By suppressing IFN-γand promoting IL-4 ,Treg may protect patients against damage resulting from excessive inflammatory response.

Objective To investigate the relations between microRNA-451 (miR-451) expression and gastric cancer (GC).Methods Expression of miR-451 in tumor and paired non-cancerous tissues was measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The association of miR-451 expression with clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis was statistically analyzed;in addition,slow virus LV-mir-451 was applied to infect human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 and MKN-45,and construct miR-451 over-expressed stable cell lines.Finally,to detect cell proliferation,migration and invasion.Results miR-451 expression decreased in GC tissues vs.pericarcinous tissues (0.010 ± 0.007 vs.0.014 ± 0.008,t =3.015,P < 0.05),and its down-regulation positively correlated with lymphatic metastasis,clinical staging and shorter overall survival.miR-451 expression in BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells did not impact on cell proliferation,but did reduce migration rates (0.863 ±0.026 vs.1.107 ±0.032,t =9.820,P<0.05;0.863 ±0.026 vs.1.060±0.054,t =4.369,P<0.05) and invasion rates (1.040 ± 0.055 vs.1.522 ± 0.001,t =5.84,P < 0.05;1.040 ± 0.055 vs.1.696 ± 0.078,t =10.16,P < 0.05) in BGC-823 cells.Conclusions miR-451 may act as a prognostic marker in GC.

Objective To evaluate the prevention and treatment of massive bleeding complicated by severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods From 1999 to 2008,massive intraabdominal bleeding was encountered in 65 cases out of 790 SAP patients admitted in pancreas surgery center,Union Hospital.Results From 1999.1 to 2003.12.44 out of 387 SAP cases(11.37%)suffered from massive bleeding,among them there were 12 cases of gastrointestinal bleeding and 32 cases of intra-abdominal bleeding.19 cases died of hemorrhage(4.91%);From 2004.1 to 2008.12,severe hemorrhage occurred in 21 out of 403 SAP cases(5.21%),including 8 cases of gastrointestinal bleeding,and 13 cases of intra-abdominal bleeding.5 cases(1.24%)died.The difference of bleeding related morbidity and mortality was statistically significant between these two periods(P<0.01).Conclusions Early and timely enteral nutrition and immunotherapy,effective peritoneal drainage,and appropriate surgical laparotomy were effective measures to decrease the risk of massive bleeding related morbidity and mortality in SAP cases.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between radiation mode and radiation-induced taste cell injury in mouse models.Methods:The head and neck of adult C57/bl mice were exposed to 8 Gy irradiation for 1, 2 and 3 times and sacrificed at 2, 4, 7 and 14 d after irradiation. Frozen sections of taste papilla tissues were treated with specific markers by immunohistochemical staining. The changes of proliferative cells and the number of type Ⅱtaste cells at different time points under different radiation modes were observed. The effect of different radiation dose patterns upon the taste cells was assessed.Results:The count of proliferative cells was decreased significantly on the 2 nd day after radiation, and rapidly recovered to normal level on the 4 th day after radiation, which was not correlated with the dose mode. The number of type Ⅱ taste cells was decreased on the 2 nd day of the first 8 Gy radiation, decreased to the lowest on the 4 th day of the second and third 8 Gy radiation, and rose slowly on the 7 th day. Conclusions:Radiation can initially decrease and subsequently increase the number of proliferative cells to normal range. Besides, it can gradually repair the type Ⅱ taste cell injury. After high-dose irradiation, the decrease of progenitor cells with proliferative function leads to a synchronous decrease in the number of taste function cells, which may be the reason why taste dysfunction cannot be recovered for a long time after radiotherapy.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a key enzyme in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. LPL mainly hydrolyzes triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and provides free fatty acid (FFAs) for metabolic tissues. LPL acts as a molecular bridge between lipoproteins and cell surface lipoprotein receptors, facilitating lipoprotein uptake. Recent studies have shown that LPL is widely expressed in tissues. LPL has a variety of physiological functions, Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a key enzyme in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism.
