Objective To investigate the effects of three types of twin-block(TB)appliances on the stress and displacement of anterior teeth,periodontal ligaments,and alveolar bone.Methods A three-dimensional(3D)finite element model was constructed,including maxillofacial bones,articular discs,teeth,and periodontal ligaments.Three types of twin-block appliances were designed:classic twin-block(classic-TB),twin-block with acrylic capping(capping-TB),and clear twin-block aligner(CTBA).All appliances had an inclination angle of 70°,and a masticatory force of 200 N was applied to their inclined planes.The finite element method was used to analyze the stress distribution and displacement differences of anterior teeth.Results All three types of TB appliances induced lingual tilting of maxillary anterior teeth and labial tilting of mandibular anterior teeth.The CTBA group showed the greatest lingual displacement and stress of maxillary anterior teeth,with a maximum stress of 30.6 MPa,while the mandibular anterior teeth in this group exhibited the smallest labial displacement(approximately 0.02 mm)and stress.Additionally,the CTBA group had the lowest compressive stress in mandibular anterior teeth,periodontal ligaments,and alveolar bone,whereas the classic-TB group had the highest.Conclusions In the treatment of Angle Class Ⅱ malocclusion,classic-TB(with or without acrylic capping)causes labial inclination of mandibular anterior teeth.Compared with classic-TB,CTBA effectively reduces the compressive stress and displacement of mandibular anterior teeth,potentially minimizing adverse periodontal risks.However,attention should be paid to the lingual displacement of maxillary anterior teeth.

Objective To investigate the significance and clinical value of preoperative three-dimensional CT reconstruction of the whole abdomen guiding preserving the left colonic artery during laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer. Methods Patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected,then 87 patients with left colonic artery were screened out through three-dimensional CT reconstruction of the whole abdomen before surgery,who were randomly divided into the observation group (received intraoperative low ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery,with preservation of the left colonic artery) with 40 cases and the control group (received intraoperative high ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery without preservation of the left colonic artery) with 47 cases. The perioperative indexes and postoperative pathological results of the two groups were compared. Results The intraoperative blood loss in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the operation time was longer than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The incidences of postoperative intestinal obstruction and anastomotic leakage in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the first postoperative discharge time was earlier than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the degree of tumor differentiation,tumor size,adenocarcinoma classification,number of lymph nodes dissected at the root of the inferior mesenteric artery,or the stage of intestinal wall invasion depth of tumor between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The application of the three-dimensional CT reconstruction of the whole abdomen before surgery can understand the branch classification of the inferior mesenteric artery in advance,determine the location of the tumor and its adjacent relationship with the surrounding tissues,and determine the resection extent of intestinal segment. Intraoperative preservation of the left colonic artery can reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications in patients,which has positive clinical significance.
