As an important means of data visualization, statistical graphics can potentially convey scientific findings and key points. However, authoritative graphic guidelines are lacking currently, and medical researchers still have shortcomings in mastering graphic design principles and drawing skills, which may obscure some key research findings and even misinterpret the research findings. Based on statistical examples, we summarized the essential elements and design principles of statistical graphics to address these challenges and to provide a reference for medical researchers.

BACKGROUND: The most common soft liners currently used in the clinic are silicone rubbers and acrylics, but both of them have deficiencies. Therefore, the development of soft lining materials with stability, excellent performance, and antibacterial properties is of important clinical significance. OBJECTIVE: To prepare a soft lining material with high elasticity on the basis of excellent characteristics of Eucommia ulmoides gum, and to preliminarily explore its water absorption and solubility. METHODS: The basic formula was made based on the existing formula of elastic Eucommia ulmoides gum and medical rubber, in combination with the specific requirements of denture lining materials. The ratio of Eucommia ulmoides to butadiene rubber was set to be 10:90, 30:70, 50:50, 70:30 and 90:10, and the new Eucommia ulmoides gum composite soft denture liners were then prepared. Acrylate self-curing soft lining material and Silagum silicone rubber denture soft lining material served as controls. Afterwards, the samples were put into distilled water or artificial saliva for 7 and 30 days, and the value of water absorption and water solubility were calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) In the artificial saliva for 7 and 30 days, the water absorption rate and solubility of samples in different ratio groups were close to those in the Silagum group, but extremely lower than those in the acrylate group. (2) In the distilled water for 7 and 30 days, the water absorption rate and solubility of samples in different ratio groups were close to those in the Silagum group, but extremely lower than those in the acrylate group. (3) The water absorption rate and solubility of the acrylate group were significantly higher than those in the other groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion in the artificial saliva or distilled water (P < 0.05). (4) After 7 and 30 days of immersion, the water absorption rate of the same sample in the artificial saliva was significantly lower than that in the distilled water. Wile at 7 days of immersion, the samples in the 30:70 and 50:50 groups showed a lower solubility in the artificial saliva than in the distilled water (P < 0.05), and at 30 days of immersion, the samples in the 30:70, 50:50, 70:30 and 90:10 groups showed a lower solubility in the artificial saliva than in the distilled water (P < 0.05). (5) In the artificial saliva, there was no significant difference in the solubility in the 50:50 and 70:30 groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion (P> 0.05), while the solubility in the other groups exhibited significant differences at different observational times (P < 0.05). In the distilled water, there was no significant difference in the solubility in the 10:90 and 30:70 groups at 7 and 30 days of immersion (P> 0.05), while the solubility in the other groups exhibited significant differences at different observational times (P < 0.05). To conclude, the water absorption of Eucommia ulmoides gum composite soft denture liner is close to Silagum, but significantly less than that of acrylate soft lining materials, and the solubility remains at a very low level.

To explore the remineralization effect of bioactive glass NovaMin on demineralized dentin specimens, and to study the physical and chemical properties of formed structure at dentin surface.
 Methods: One mm-thickness coronal dentin slices were soaked in ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) for 48 h to prepare the completely demineralized dentin specimens and they were divided into 2 groups: an artificial saliva group (control group) and a NovaMin powder group. The specimens were treated with artificial saliva or NovaMin powder for 2 min (2 times every day), and the interval was 8 hours. Then, the specimens were soaked in the remineralization solution. After 7 days, the scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to detect dentin morphology, the physical and chemical properties of the formed structure at dentin surface.
 Results: The results of SEM showed that a defined surface layer in the NovaMin powder group could be observed in the SEM imaging at the 7th day, which completely occluded dentinal tubules; the EDX, ATR-FTIR and XRD analysis found that the mineralized layer formed at dentin surface was mainly composed of calcium and phosphate elements, which was similar to the hydroxyapatite-like crystal. However, there were no materials formed at the dentin surface in the control group, and the dentinal tubules were still open.
 Conclusion: NovaMin can remineralize the demineralized dentin specimens and occlude the dentinal tubules in hydroxyapatite-like crystal structure.

Objective: To understand the molecular evolution characteristics of the nucleoprotein (N) genes and epidemiological feature of 118 rabies virus (RABV) strains isolated in Yunnan province, China from 2006 to 2015. Methods: The brain tissue samples from mad dogs, suspicious sick dogs, sick cow, and human brain tissue, saliva and CSF samples from rabies patients were collected in Yunnan province to detect the viral antigen by direct immunofluorescence assay (DFA). The viral RNA from positive samples was extracted. Coding region of N gene was amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced. The phylogenetic tree was constructed by Neighbor-Joining method of MEGA5.0 software. Results: The sequences of N genes of 91 RABV strains in Yunnan from 2012 to 2015 were obtained. With the sequences of N genes of 27 RABV strains in Yunnan from 2006 to 2011 and 29 RABV strains from Southeast Asian Countries, the phylogenetic analysis was performed. RABV strains in Yunnan were divided into clades YN-A (105 strains), YN-B (6 strains), YN-C (7 strains), which belonged to clades China-I, China-VI, China-II respectively. Clade YN-A was epidemic every year from 2006 to 2015, of them, 14 strains from 2006 to 2011 and 91 strains from 2012 to 2015 were distributed in 13 prefectures (cities) of Yunnan. Clades YN-B and YN-C were epidemic only from 2006 to 2010 and from 2008 to 2011 respectively. The regional distribution of clades YN-B and YN-C was limited. The strains of YN-A and YN-C were closely related to the strains of clades China-I and China-II from neighboring Sichuan, Guizhou, Guangxi and Hunan provinces. The strains of YN-B were closely related to the strains from Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. Conclusions Three RABV clades with multiple transmission sources were identified in Yunnan. Clade YN-A was widely distributed in rabies endemic area in Yunnan from 2006 to 2015, and it has strong ability to spread as principal clade in Yunnan. Since 2012, clades YN-B and YN-C were not found again in Yunnan.

Objective To explore MSCT optimal examination time window for patients with occult rib fracture, and provide objective evidence for forensic injury. Methods Totally 105 cases with chest trauma were retrospectively analysed. They were examined in the first week after trauma and re-examined in different time windows by MSCT. The quantities of occult rib fractures in the first examination were compared to those in re-examinations. Results The quantities of occult rib fractures at different inspection time windows were mostly different. There was no statistically significant between the quantities of rib fractures in the first week and the second week, the first week and the sixth week later, the fourth week and the fifth to sixth weeks (P>0.05). There was statistically significant between the quantities of rib fractures in the first week and the thrid to sixth weeks, the second week and the third to sixth weeks, the third week and the fourth to sixth weeks (P<0.05). Conclusion The result of the study imply that the fourth to sixth week is the optimal time window of MSCT examination in the occult rib fracture.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcome of all-ceramic and metal-ceramic restorations by means of Meta-analysis. Methods:The relevant randomized controlled trials ( RCTs) were electronically searched from PubMed, the Cochrane Library, EM-base, SinoMed, Weipu databases, CNKI and Wanfang. After data extraction and bias evaluation the Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5. 3 software. Results:Finally 15 RCTs involving 768 all-ceramic restorations and 1386 Metal-ceramic restorations met the eli-gibility criteria. The results showed that, compared with metal-ceramic restorations, all-ceramic restorations could significantly decrease the risk of gingivitis(RR=0. 30,95%CI=0. 10-0. 90, P=0. 03),could decrease secondary caries and improve the satisfaction of cervical discoloration and marginal adaptation but without significant difference. There was no difference in color match and chipping of the veneering ceramics. However, all-ceramic restorations may lead to loss of the abutment tooth vitality. The risk of all-ceramic frame-work fracture while adopting fixed bridges was significantly higher(RR=6. 24, 95%CI=1. 20 -32. 41, P=0. 03). Conclusion:Based on the existing limited evidence,the efficacy of all-ceramic restorations is better than metal-ceramic restorations. But the intensity of all-ceramic bridges needs to be improved.

BACKGROUND:Eucommia ulmoides gum has good thermoplastics, liquidity, bondability and antimicrobial properties. However, the application of Eucommia ulmoides gum as a root canal filing material is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: To compare the different contents of gas phase nano-silica on mechanical performance of composite material taking the gutta-percha as the matrix, and observe the effect of the root canal filing. METHODS:Four kind of root canal filing materials were prepared through adding barium sulfate (20%), nano-hydroxyapatite (10%) and different contents of gutta-percha and gas phase nano-silica (40% and 15%, 45% and 20%, 50% and 25%, 55% and 30%). PureEucommia ulmoidesgum served as the blank control. The mechanical properties (hardness, tensile strength and rupture elongation rate) of those five materials were detected. Furthermore, four kinds of composite materials, pureEucommia ulmoidesgum and Gutta-Percha Pelets were filed into the fresh extracted premolar root canal by using Obtura II technology. The effect of root canal filing was observed under X-ray and scanning electron microscopy.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Along with the increase of the content of gas phase nano-silica, the hardness of Eucommia ulmoides gum composite material increased, tensile strength increased firstly and then decreased, and rupture elongation rate decreased. PureEucommia ulmoides gum was transmitted to the X-ray and no image of filing material was obtained. Four kinds of composite materials were resistant to X-ray, and images showed that al composite materials were equaly filed into the root canal, without cacuole, and were in contact with the root canal inner wal, showing good filing effect. Scanning electron microscopy showed that, fingerlike projections were the longest at the surface of pureEucommia ulmoides gum; as the content of gas phase nano-silica increased, fingerlike projection length reduced at the surface of composite materials.Eucommia ulmoides gum composite materials could be developed as a canal filing material under heat flow condition.

BACKGROUNDBreast cancer has become one of the most common malignant tumors among females over the past several years. Breast carcinogenesis is a continuous process, which is featured by the normal epithelium progressing to premalignant lesions and then to invasive breast cancer (IBC). Targeting premalignant lesions is an effective strategy to prevent breast cancer. The establishment of animal models is critical to study the mechanisms of breast carcinogenesis, which will facilitate research on breast cancer prevention and drug behaviors. In this study, we established a feasible chemically-induced rat model of premalignant breast cancer.

METHODSFollowing the administration of the drugs (carcinogen, estrogen, and progestogen) to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, tumors or suspicious tumors were identified by palpation or ultrasound imaging, and were surgically excised for pathological evaluation. A series of four consecutive steps were carried out in order to determine the carcinogen: 7,12-dimethylbenzaanthracene (DMBA) or 1-methyl-1-nitrosourea, the route of carcinogen administration, the administration period of estrogen and progestogen, and the DMBA dosage.

RESULTSStable premalignant lesions can be induced in SD rats on administration of DMBA (15 mg/kg, administered three times) followed by administration of female hormones 5-day cycle.

RESULTSwere confirmed by ultrasound and palpation.

CONCLUSIONUnder the premise of drug dose and cycle, DMBA combined with estrogen and progestogen can be used as a SD rat model for breast premalignant lesions.
