BACKGROUND:There is an increasing demand for orthodontic treatment,and periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics(PAOO)technique can make it possible to move orthodontic teeth that are limited by thin alveolar bone. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biomechanics of orthodontic tooth movement before and after periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics(PAOO)surgery to increase alveolar bone volume using the three-dimensional finite element method. METHODS:A patient undergoing PAOO surgery before orthodontic treatment to increase bone volume on the labial side of the mandibular anterior region was selected.The patient was under invisible orthodontics.Two three-dimensional finite element models were constructed based on the patient's preoperative and 6-month postoperative cone beam CT data.Both models simulated the movement of tooth 33:experiment Ⅰ:distal-central movement of 0.25 mm;experiment Ⅱ:lingual movement of 0.25 mm;and experiment Ⅲ:intrusion movement of 0.10 mm.The stress distribution and initial displacement trend of tooth 33,periodontal ligament and surrounding alveolar bone under the action of the invisible aligner were analyzed before and after the PAOO procedure. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Dental stress analysis:In the same orthodontic tooth movement,the maximum Von-Mises stress and overall stress values of tooth 33 were all higher before surgery than after surgery;there were similar distribution areas of maximum equivalent stress and overall distribution trends of Von-Mises stress before and after surgery.Periodontal ligament stress analysis:In the same orthodontic tooth movement,the maximum Von-Mises stress and overall stress values of the periodontal ligament were higher before surgery than after surgery,and there were similar distribution areas of the maximum equivalent stress and overall distribution trends of Von-Mises stress before and after surgery.Alveolar bone stress analysis:In the same orthodontic tooth movement,the maximum Von-Mises stress values of the alveolar bone around tooth 33 were higher before surgery than after surgery,while the equivalent stress distribution showed a gradual decrease from the top of the alveolar ridge to the root.Initial displacement analysis:In the same orthodontic tooth movement,the initial displacements in the main displacement direction for all six observation points of tooth 33 were smaller before surgery than after surgery,and showed a tendency to gradually decrease from the tooth tip to the apex.Therefore,there were differences in the biomechanical characteristics of orthodontic tooth movement before and after the PAOO surgery.With the clear aligner,the postoperative equivalent stress values on the dentition,periodontal ligament,and surrounding alveolar bone were lower than before the surgery,and the initial displacements of the orthodontic teeth after the surgery are larger than before.These findings suggest that PAOO can release the restriction of thin alveolar bone on the movement of orthodontic tooth by increasing alveolar bone thickness,effectively improving the force on the roots,periodontal ligament,and alveolar bone,avoiding the stress concentration on orthodontic tooth in the thin alveolar bone area that can cause complications when moving,and improving the efficiency of tooth movement.

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Cirsium japonicum extract in improving hypercholesterolemia based on metabolomics technology. METHODS The extract of C. japonicum was prepared by macroporous resin adsorption, and its main components were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The experimental mice were randomly divided into control group (n=6) and modeling group (n=16). The hypercholesterolemia model was induced by diet in modeling group; after modeling, the rats of modeling group were divided into model group (n=8) and C. japonicum extract group (n=8). C. japonicum extract group was given C. japonicum extract 400 mg/(kg·d) by gavage (calculated by extract), and other 2 groups were given constant volume of 0.3% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution, for 6 weeks. After medication, the intervention effect of C. japonicum extract was evaluated by the levels of serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and the histopathological changes of liver. The mechanism of C. japonicum extract in improving hypercholesterolemia model mice was investigated by metabolomics. RESULTS It was identified that C. japonicum extract contained 12 components, such as 030302005) chlorogenic acid, linarin and pectolinarin. After 6 weeks of intervention, compared with control group, serum level of TC was increased significantly while the level of TG was decreased significantly in model group (P<0.05), while a large number of lipid droplets, disorderly arrangement of liver cells and the damaged structure of liver cord were observed in liver tissue. Compared with model group, the serum level of TC was decreased significantly in C. japonicum extract group(P<0.05); the lipid droplets in liver tissue were significantly reduced, with liver cells arranged radially and tightly centered around the central vein, and liver cords arranged neatly. The metabolomics study showed that after the intervention of C. japonicum extract, the levels of metabolites were significantly adjusted back, such as ethanolamine, fumaric acid and cholesterol; finally, three metabolism pathways, such as alanine-aspartate-glutamic acid metabolism, arginine biosynthesis, citric acid cycle, were obtained. CONCLUSIONS The main components of C. japonicum extract are phenolic acids and flavonoids, such as chlorogenic acid, linarin, pectolinarin. C. japonicum extract can improve hypercholesterolemia by regulating the contents and distribution of differential metabolites, adjusting alanine-aspartate-glutamic acid metabolism, arginine biosynthesis and citric acid cycle, participating in oxidation-reduction reaction, improving liver lipid accumulation, and playing anti-inflammatory role.

OBJE CTIVE To provide reference for improving rational drug use in medical institutions and strengthening individualized rational drug use monitoring. METHODS The hospital information system (HIS)was used to retrieve the patient ’s medical information and the doctor ’s medical information ;on the basis of pre-examination of prescriptions ,the chronic disease medication monitoring and visiting frequency monitoring modules were added to construct individualized rational drug use monitoring platform. Taking hypoglycemic drugs as an example ,the number of patients who were prescribed the drug ≥3 times a month in Karamay Central Hospital (hereinafter referred to as “our hospital ”)was compared before and after the operation of the individualized rational drug use monitoring platform (Jan. to Apr. 2018 regarded as before operation ,Jan. to Apr. 2019 and 2021 regarded as after operation ). At the same time ,the number of risk prescriptions (repeatedly prescribing the same drug ≥3 times a day)and unreasonable prescriptions after the operation of the individualized rational drug use monitoring platform (Jan. to Apr. 2019 and Jan. to Apr. 2021)in our hospital were compared. RESULTS The proport ion of patients who were over prescribed Diformin tablets from Jan. to Apr. in 2021 was lower than the same period in 2018 significantly(16.65% vs. 27.17%,P<0.05). From Jan. to Apr. 2019,35.3% of the risk prescriptions in our hospital were unqualified prescriptions ;in the same period of 2021, the proportion of unqualified prescriptions in risk prescriptions in our hospital decreased to 12.82% ,which was statistically significant compared with 2019(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Based on the actual situation of patients ,our hospital establishes the individualized rational drug use monitoring platform by using HIS to meet the actual needs of clinical drug use. The use of the platform has significantly reduced the number of patients visiting doctors many times and unreasonable prescriptions ,and promotes rational drug use. At the same time ,the platform also further strengthens the prescription review system of our hospital and improves the level of pharmaceutical care.

Objective:To investigate the normal reference values of spinal bone mineral density measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and the differences of bone mineral density (BMD) in different regions of in Chinese adult males.Methods:Men who underwent low-dose CT lung scan for cancer screening in regions of Northeast, North, East, South, Central and Southwest of China from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected. And the lumbar vertebrae BMD values in the male subjects were measured by the QCT system (Mindways Software, Inc.). The mean BMD values and their decline rates were calculated at an age interval of 10 years, and the prevalence of osteoporosis was calculated according to the American College of Radiology spine QCT osteoporosis diagnostic criteria.Results:A total of 50 682 males with a mean age of (50.22±12.79) years (ranged 20 to 98 years) were included in this study. The peak BMD of (173.11±28.56) mg/cm 3 in the healthy Chinese adult male population appeared in the age group of 20 to 29 years and then declined with age. Before the age of 70 years, the BMD was relatively higher in males in South China, and it was lower in Central China and Southwest China, and it was intermediate in Northeast, North and East of China, with statistically significant differences. There was no significant differences in BMD in the males in the two age groups of 70 to 79 years and 80 and older among the regions in China. The overall decline rate of spinal BMD in Chinese males under QCT was about 46.92% over the lifetime, and it declined obviouslyin the 40-49 age group. The overall prevalence of osteoporosis in Chinese male population aged 50 years and above was approximately 11.42%, with the highest prevalence in Southwest China and Central China (14.72% and 13.87%, respectively) and the lowest in North China and South China (8.53% and 7.71%, respectively). Conclusions:A reference of lumbar spine BMD values for healthy males in China based on QCT is established. BMD values were highest in South China and Lowest in Central China.
