BACKGROUND:
Craniomaxillofacial tissue defects are clinical defects involving craniomaxillofacial and oral soft and hard tissues.They are characterized by defect-shaped irregularities, bacterial and inflammatory environments, and the need for functional recovery.Conventional clinical treatments are currently unable to achieve regeneration of high-quality oral craniomaxillofacial tissue. As a natural biomaterial, silk fibroin (SF) has been widely studied in biomedicine and has broad prospects for use in tissue regeneration.Hydrogels made of SF showed excellent water retention, biocompatibility, safety and the ability to combine with other materials.
METHODS:
To gain an in-depth understanding of the current development of SF, this article reviews the structure, preparation and application prospects in oral and craniomaxillofacial tissue regenerative medicine. It first briefly introduces the structure of SF and then summarizes the principles, advantages and disadvantages of the different cross-linking methods (physical cross-linking, chemical cross-linking and double network structure) of SF. Finally, the existing research on the use of SF in tissue engineering and the prospects of using SF with different cross-linking methods in oral and craniomaxillofacial tissue regeneration are also discussed.
CONCLUSIONS
This review is intended to show the advantages of SF hydrogels in tissue engineering and provides theoretical support for establishing novel and viable silk protein hydrogels for regeneration.

Objective:To investigate the imaging manifestations and diagnostic significance of multislice spiral CT angiography for aortic intramural hematoma.Methods:Forty-three patients with aortic intramural hematoma who received digital subtraction angiography or multislice spiral CT angiography in Yiwu Central Hospital from November 2017 to September 2018 were included in this study. The misdiagnosis rate and image quality were compared between the two imaging examination methods.Results:The misdiagnosis rate of digital subtraction angiography was 6.98% (3/43) and that of multislice spiral CT angiography was 4.65% (2/43). There was no significant difference in the misdiagnosis rate between the two methods ( P > 0.05). The numbers of patients receiving multislice spiral CT angiography with grade III image quality ( n = 4) and grade IV image quality ( n = 2) were lower than those of patients receiving digital subtraction angiography ( χ2 = 3.957 and 4.074, both P < 0.05). There were no significant difference in the numbers of patients with grade I and II image quality between the two methods (both P > 0.05). Multislice spiral CT angiography showed that among 43 patients, 18 patients had non-ulcerative aortic wall hematoma, 25 patients had ulcerative aortic wall hematoma. Among patients with aortic wall hematoma, 14 patients had moderate or more amount of pleural effusion, with the average thickness of hematoma tissue of 11.42 mm, the maximum diameter of the involved ascending aorta of 56 mm, and the maximum diameter of the involved descending aorta of 44 mm. Conclusion:Multislice spiral CT angiography is superior to digital subtraction angiography in the diagnosis of aortic wall hematoma because it provides clearer images, which can help better present lesion changes.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics and related factors of HBsAb in infants born to women with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.Methods:A total of 605 infants born to women with chronic HBV infection who met the requirements for inclusion were selected as the subjects. Information about the mother′s previous HBV infection, biochemical indicators during pregnancy, pregnancy complications, information about delivery, and hepatitis B test result after birth were collected. HBsAg and HBsAb at the age of 1 year were determined, and HBsAg and HBsAb at the age of 7 months were retrospectively collected. The factors influencing HBsAb in infants were analyzed by ordered logistic regression.Results:In 605 infants, the infection rate was about 1%. Among them, 6 infants were positive for HBsAg and HBV DNA at 7 months and 1 year of age. Uninfected infants were divided into groups according to HBsAb titers. The result showed that there were significant differences in prothrombin activity (PTA) ( χ2=11.17, P=0.01), positive rate of HBeAg ( χ2=7.87, P=0.049) and HBsAg positive rate at birth ( χ2=10.52, P=0.02) among different groups. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression analysis showed that HBsAg negative at birth was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 7 months of age ( OR=1.564, 95% CI 1.092-2.239, P=0.015). Logistic regression analysis of HBsAb at 1 year of age showed maternal gestational diabetes mellitus ( OR=1.578, 95% CI 1.126-2.210, P=0.008), infant enhanced immunization ( OR=81.207, 95% CI 31.202-211.352, P < 0.001) and antibody level at 7 months of age ( OR=42.123, 95% CI 22.824-77.739, P < 0.001) were independently associated with HBsAb at 1 year of age. Conclusions:HBsAg negative in venous blood at birth was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 7 months of age, and enhanced immunization was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 1 year of age.

Objective:To observe the effects of applying ultrasound-guided balloon dilatation in the treatment of post-stroke cyclopthyroid achalasia.Methods:Thirty-eight stroke survivors with cyclopneaful achalasia were divided into a control group ( n=19) and an experimental group ( n=19). All had been diagnosed with cycloparyngeal achalasia using videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS). The controls were treated with conventional oral balloon dilatation, while the experimental group underwent ultrasound-guided oral balloon dilatation. The treatment was performed once every 2 days. During the treatment period, the durations and the number of expansions were recorded, and the patient′s comfort and throat pain were evaluated. The Kubota drinking water test (KDWT), standardized swallowing assessment (SSA) scoring and VFSS scoring were compared before and after the 2 weeks of treatment. Results:The average daily duration of expansions in the experimental group was significantly less than in the control group and their number was significantly greater. Comfort and larynx pain were also significantly better in the experimental group. The effective rate in the KDWT was 78.95% in the treatment group, significantly higher than the control group′s 31.58%. Significant differences were also found in the average SSA scores, VFSS pharyngeal phase scores and in the incidence of achalasia between the experimental and control groups.Conclusions:Using ultrasound to guide balloon dilatation can shorten the operation, reduce the throat pain involved and allow for more expansions, greater comfort and thus more effective treatment.
