BACKGROUND:Clinical studies suggest that both bone quality and excessive crown-to-implant ratio are factors that affect the success rate of implant surgery,but there is no consensus on how large the crown-to-implant ratio under each bone quality will affect the prognosis of implant repair.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the stress and strain of bone tissue around implant restorations with different crown-to-implant ratios under different bone types after stress loading using three-dimensional finite element method.Combined with the Frost bone mechanics regulation system theory,the physiological limits of bone strain were observed for each bone type within a certain range of crown to implant ratios.METHODS:Cone beam CT data were selected from a patient to establish solid bone block models with four different bone types(class Ⅰ bone:cortical bone thickness 3 mm+dense cancellous bone,class Ⅱ bone:cortical bone thickness 2 mm+relatively dense cancellous bone,class Ⅲ bone:cortical bone thickness 1 mm+relatively low-density cancellous bone,class Ⅳ bone:cortical bone thickness 1 mm+low-density cancellous bone).Implant restorations with five different crown-to-implant ratios(1,1.5,2,2.5,and 3)were created on each bone block model,for a total of 20 models.Vertical and oblique forces were applied to the dental crown to observe the von Mises stress values,strains,and displacement of the cortical and cancellous bones,as well as the degree of implant displacement.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the class Ⅰ bone model,when the crown-to-implant ratio reached 3 under oblique loading,the cortical bone strain exceeded the physiological limit.In the class Ⅱ bone model,under oblique loading,when the crown-to-implant ratio reached 2.5,the cortical bone strain exceeded the physiological limit.In the class Ⅲ bone model,under oblique loading,cortical bone exceeded the physiological limit when the crown-to-implant ratio reached 2.5,while cancellous bone reached the critical physiological limit at 1.In the class Ⅳ bone model,under oblique loading,when the crown-to-implant ratio reached 1.5,2,2.5,and 3,the cortical bone strain exceeded the physiological limit.In the class Ⅳ bone model,all five crown-to-implant ratios of cancellous bone exceeded physiological limits.(2)Under vertical load,the cancellous bone strain exceeded the physiological limit when the crown-root ratio reached 1,2,2.5,and 3 in the class Ⅲ bone model,and when the cancellous bone strain of the five crown-root ratios in the class Ⅳ bone model exceeded the physiological limit.(3)Under oblique or vertical load,the implant displacement of the 20 groups of models did not exceed 100 μm.(4)From the perspective of biomechanics,when patients with insufficient bone height choose implant restoration,the crown-root ratio that class Ⅰ bone can tolerate is up to 2.5 times,the crown-root ratio that class Ⅱ bone can tolerate is up to 2 times,and the crown-root ratio that class Ⅲ and class Ⅳ bones can tolerate is up to 1 times due to excessive strain of cancellous bone;but the crown-root ratio that cortical bone in class Ⅲ bone can tolerate is up to 2 times.Whether class Ⅲ bone can tolerate implant restoration with a high crown-root ratio and whether cancellous bone can tolerate higher strains needs further study.

OBJECTIVE To explore the intervention mechanism of Bushen anzhi decoction （BSAZD） in rats with insomnia induced by kidney failing to store spirit. METHODS A total of 36 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group （normal saline）， model group （normal saline）， eszopiclone group （positive control group， 0.27 mg/kg）， and low-， medium- and high-dose BSAZD groups （5.85， 11.70， 23.40 g/kg）， with 6 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， rats in the remaining groups were subjected to combined administration of D-galactose and DL-4-chlorophenylalanine to establish the rat model of insomnia due to kidney failing to store spirit. After successful modeling， corresponding liquid medicine or normal saline was intragastrically administered once daily for 14 consecutive days. After the last administration， behavioral indicators and hippocampal histopathological morphology of rats were detected. Untargeted metabolomics was adopted to screen serum differential metabolites and enrich relevant signaling pathways. RESULTS Compared with the model group， the high-dose BSAZD group exhibited significantly increased open arm entries ， open arm time and sleep time （ P ＜0.05）， accompanied by markedly decreased closed arm entries， closed arm time and sleep latency （ P ＜0.05）. Hippocampal neurons in the high-dose BSAZD group were arranged regularly， and the size， morphology and location of cell nuclei were nearly normal. Untargeted metabolomics analysis identified oxidized glutathione， glutamate and other differential metabolites in serum of rats in the high-dose BSAZD group； these differential metabolites were mainly enriched in GABAergic synapse， glutamatergic synapse， cAMP signaling pathway and 2-oxocarboxylic acid metabolism pathway. CONCLUSIONS BSAZD can improve sleep quality， relieve anxiety-like behaviors in rats with insomnia due to kidney failing to store spirit. Its therapeutic mechanism may be associated with regulating GABAergic and glutamatergic synaptic pathways to restore neurotransmitter balance and further alleviate oxidative stress injury， modulating the cAMP signaling pathway to facilitate neural repair， and intervening the 2-oxocarboxylic acid metabolism pathway to optimize energy supply.

OBJECTIVE: Exploring the formation and aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) (amylin) fibers is significant for promoting the prevention and treatment of type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Flavones in pomelo peel have visible biological activity in the anti-diabetes aspect. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of five flavones [naringin (NRG), narirutin (NRR), nobiletin (NOB), sinensetin (SIN), and neohesperidin (NHP)] in pomelo peel on peptide aggregation and explore its possible mechanisms. The cell viability of flavones against peptide aggregation was also evaluated. METHODS: The thioflavin T (ThT) assay and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used for evaluating the inhibition and disaggregation of flavones on peptide aggregation. The interaction mechanism was analyzed by endogenous fluorescence, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments. The 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and immune assays were performed to characterize the cell viability of flavones against peptide aggregation. RESULTS: The five flavones showed a decrease in fluorescence intensity, fiber number and size under incubation with different molar ratios of hIAPP. The compounds can bind to the aromatic tyrosine (Tyr) residueTyr 37, resulting in the intrinsic fluorescence quenching of the peptides. Five flavones can form hydrogen bonds with hIAPP, which is likely to be based on their phenolic hydroxyl structure. They showed strong binding affinity with peptides. The reaction system of NRG and NRR observed an exothermic reaction, and the others were endothermic reactions. The absorption peaks of the compounds with hIAPP changed and showed hypochromic effects, indicating that there may be π-π stacking interaction. Flavones noticeably increased the cell viability in the presence of amyloid peptides and reduced the absorption intensity induced by peptide oligomers. CONCLUSION A total of five flavones in pomelo peel have inhibitory and depolymerization effects on amyloid fibrils, and can significantly protect cells from the toxic effect of hIAPP and reduce the production of toxic oligomers.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of fuzuloparib for the treatment of ovarian epithelial cancer patients in the real world setting.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the baseline data of 4 620 ovarian cancer patients who had received fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy. Another 224 ovarian cancer patients who were willing to receive fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy were prospectively enrolled, and their baseline characteristics, drug effectiveness, and safety data were analyzed.Results:(1) Among the 4 620 patients in the retrospective cohort, the median age of patients was 60 years; tumor types: 89.8% (4 149/4 620) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented information, the vast majority had a histological type of serous carcinoma (82.9%, 3 770/4 546) and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging of Ⅲ-Ⅳ (90.9%, 1 537/1 691). (2) Among the 224 patients in the prospective cohort, the median age of patients was 57 years; tumor types: 83.9% (188/224) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented records, the predominant pathologic type was serous carcinoma (91.9%, 193/210), and FIGO stage was Ⅲ-Ⅳ in 79.9% (139/174). (3) Among the 224 prospective patients: 84 patients received first-line fluzoparib maintenance therapy, 92 patients received fluzoparib maintenance therapy after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 23 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 19 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-resistant recurrence. The median follow-up durations were 8.5, 8.7, 7.9, and 6.7 months, respectively. The median durations of fluzoparib treatment were 6.7, 4.8, 3.1, and 1.9 months, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) times were not reached during follow-up, 12.6 months, not reached during follow-up, and 4.8 months, respectively. The 1-year PFS rates were 84.1%, 55.0%, 69.8%, and 45.5%, respectively. The remaining 6 patients received other fluzoparib regimens. (4) Among the 224 patients in the prospective dataset, 205 had safety data recorded. Of these, 127 patients (62.0%, 127/205) experienced treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (24.4%, 50/205), thrombocytopenia (21.0%, 43/205), and leukopenia (19.5%, 40/205). Among the 205 patients, 43 (21.0%, 43/205) experienced grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (8.3%, 17/205) and thrombocytopenia (8.3%, 17/205).Conclusions:The effectiveness of fuzuloparib in clinical application is generally consistent with other drugs in the same class, with good safety. This study provids new clinical evidence for the treatment of ovarian cancer with fuzuloparib.
