Exploration of making removable partial denture by digital technology / 中华口腔医学杂志

To explore the digital manufacturing process of distal extension removable partial denture. From November 2021 to December 2022, 12 patients (7 males and 5 females) with free-ending situation were selected from the Department of Prosthodontics, School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University. Three-dimensional model of the relationship between alveolar ridge and jaw position was obtained by intraoral scanning technique. After routine design, manufacturing and try-in of metal framework for removable partial denture, the metal framework was located in the mouth and scanned again to obtain the composite model of dentition, alveolar ridge and metal framework. The free-end modified model is obtained by merging the digital model of free-end alveolar ridge with the virtual model with the metal framework. The three-dimensional model of artificial dentition, and base plate was designed on the free-end modified model, and the resin model were made by digital milling technology. The removable partial denture was made by accurately positioning the artificial dentition and base plate, bonding metal framework with injection resin, grinding and polishing the artificial dentition and resin base. Compared with the design data after clinical trial, the results showed that there was an error of 0.4-1.0 mm and an error of 0.03-0.10 mm in the connection between the resin base of artificial dentition and the connecting rod of the in-place bolt and the connection between artificial dentition and resin base. After denturen delivery, only 2 patients needed grinding adjustment in follow-up visit due to tenderness, and the rest patients did not find any discomfort. The digital fabrication process of removable partial denture used in this study can basically solve the problems of digital fabrication of free-end modified model and assembly of artificial dentition with resin base and metal framework.

Evaluation of efficacy of combination therapy of intravitreal conbercept with posterior sub-Tenon triamcinolone acetonide for treatment of macular edema secondary to non-ischemic branch retinal vein occlusion / 中华实验眼科杂志

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy of intravitreal conbercept (IVC) with posterior sub-Tenon injection of triamcinolone acetonide (PSTA) in treating macular edema secondary to non-ischemic branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).Methods:A nonrandomized controlled study was conducted.Fifty-nine patients (59 eyes) diagnosed with macular edema secondary to non-ischemic BRVO were enrolled in Heping Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from October 2016 to November 2019.The subjects were divided into IVC group (28 eyes) and combination therapy of IVC with PSTA group (IVC+ PSTA group for short) (31 eyes). IVC group received IVC 0.5 mg and IVC+ PSTA group received IVC 0.5 mg combined with PSTA 40 mg as the initial therapy, then a pro re nata (PRN) IVC administration was adopted for the two groups.The mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution unit, central macular thickness (CMT) and intraocular pressure (IOP) before and 1, 3, 6 months after injection were measured and compared.The number of repeated IVC injections and relevant complications were recorded.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Heping Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College (No.20160R9). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to any medical examination.Results:There was a statistically significant difference in BCVA between the two groups among different time points ( Fgroup=0.464, P=0.498; Ftime=25.454, P<0.001). Compared with before injection, the BCVA of both groups was significantly improved at each time point after injection (all at P<0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in CMT between the two groups among different time points ( Fgroup=6.208, P=0.016; Ftime=155.505, P<0.001). The CMT of both groups at each time point after injection was significantly smaller than that before injection, and the CMT in IVC+ PSTA group at 1 and 3 months after injection was smaller than that in IVC group (all at P<0.05). There was a statistically significant overall difference in IOP between the two groups ( Fgroup=9.994, P=0.006; Ftime=2.679, P=0.056). At 1 and 3 months after injection, the IOP in IVC+ PSTA group was higher than that in IVC group, showing statistically significant differences (both at P<0.01). There were 4 eyes with an IOP higher than 21 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) in IVC+ PSTA group.Within the 6-month follow-up, the mean number of repeated IVC injections of IVC group was 1.25±0.93, which was higher than 0.61±0.72 of IVC+ PSTA group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.039). No other ocular complication was observed in both groups. Conclusions:Combination therapy of IVC with PSTA is effective in improving the BCVA and macular edema of patients with macular edema secondary to non-ischemic BRVO.A single PSTA injection can enhance the effect of conbercept in reliving macular edema in early months and reduce the number of repeated conbercept injections in the short term.

Efficacy of drug coated balloon versus conventional balloon in the treatment of coronary de novo bifurcation lesions: a meta-analysis / 中华心血管病杂志

Objective: To systematically evaluate the efficacy of drug coated balloon (DCB) versus conventional balloon in the treatment of coronary de novo bifurcation lesions. Methods: The databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of science, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang database, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, Chinese clinical trial registry, American clinical trial registry and cardiovascular related websites until September 2020 were retrieved for collecting the randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing DCB versus conventional balloon in the treatment of coronary de novo bifurcation lesions. The risk of bias of included studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk assessment tool. The meta-analysis was performed by using Revman 5.3 and Stata 14.0 software. Results: Seven RCTs with a total of 613 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Among the included studies, 4 articles reached the low risk of bias, and the other 3 articles reached the medium risk of bias. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the major adverse cardiac events (RR=0.65, 95%CI 0.39-1.08, P=0.10), myocardial infarction (RR=0.68, 95%CI 0.25-1.80, P=0.43), target lesion revascularization (RR=0.94, 95%CI 0.53-1.67, P=0.83) between DCB group and conventional balloon group. Late lumen loss of side branch was less in the DCB group than that in the conventional balloon group (WMD=-0.25, 95%CI -0.41--0.09, P<0.01) and the risk of side branch restenosis was also lower in the DCB group than that in the conventional balloon group (RR=0.47, 95%CI 0.22-0.98, P<0.05). However, subgroup analysis showed that the conclusions of domestic studies and foreign studies on late lumen loss and side branch restenosis were inconsistent. The meta-analysis based on domestic literature showed that the risk of side branch restenosis after DCB treatment was lower compared with conventional balloon group (RR=0.29, 95%CI 0.15-0.57, P<0.05), while this parameter derived from foreign literatures remained unchanged between two groups (P=0.53). The meta-analysis results of domestic literature showed that late lumen loss in DCB group was less than that in conventional balloon group (WMD=-0.32, 95%CI -0.51--0.13, P<0.05), but this phenomenon was not observed in foreign literatures (P=0.30). Conclusions: The use of DCB in the treatment of coronary de novo bifurcation lesions has the potential to reduce the rate of restenosis and late lumen loss of side branch compared with conventional balloon group. However, due to the limitation on quantity, quality and results of published studies, more high-quality and large scale RCTs are still needed to confirm these findings.

Objective:To investigate the value of pattern reversal visual evoked potential (PRVEP) and sweep pattern visual evoked potential (SPVEP) in evaluating the visual function of patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).Methods:A retrospective clinical trial. A total of 38 monocular CSC patients were enrolled from March 2016 to December2018 in Heping Hospital Affiliated Changzhi Medical College. There were 34 males and 4 females with the mean age of 40.0±5.2 years. All patients undergo PRVEP detection in both the acute phase (disease course ≤ 3 months) and the clinical cure phase (disease course ≤ 6 months) using the German Roland electrophysiological RETIport system.The stimulation pattern adopted a checkerboard with 1.00° and 0.25° stimulation angles. The P 100 peak amplitude and peak time were observed. SPVEP inspection equipment and methods were the same as PRVEP, and the spatial frequency was 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 22 cpd. The difference between SPVEP vision and subjective vision were compared. The PRVEP peak amplitude, peak time and SPVEP amplitude and phase of the affected eye and the contralateral eye were compared by paired t test; the subjective vision and SPVEP visual acuity of the affected eye and the contralateral eye were compared by Wilcoxon paired rank test; Pearson product-moment correlation analysis was performed on SPVEP vision. Results:In the acute phase, the peak amplitude of P100 in the affected eye was lower than that in the contralateral eye ( t=30.26, 13.59), and the peak time was prolonged ( t=-19.89, -29.41). The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01); in clinically cured period, the P100 peak amplitude ( t=1.49, -0.57) and peak time ( t=-1.22, -1.84) of the affected eye and the contralateral eye showed no significant difference ( P>0.05). In the acute phase, the difference in SPVEP amplitude between the affected eye and the contralateral eye with different spatial frequencies was statistically significant ( P<0.01); the phase of the affected eye and the contralateral eye were compared about the spatial frequency 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 cpd, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). During the clinical cure period, the spatial frequency of 6, 8, 12, 16 cpd, the SPVEP amplitude of the affected eye and the contralateral eye, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01); on the spatial frequency of 6, 8, 12 cpd, the phase of SPVEP was compared between the affected eye and the contralateral eye, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). During the acute phase and the clinical cure phase, the SPVEP visual acuity of the affected eye was lower than that of the contralateral eye, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01); during the acute phase and clinical cure phase, the SPVEP visual acuity of the affected eye and the contralateral eye were lower than the subjective vision. The difference was statistically significant (acute phase: Z =-5.38, -3.00; P<0.001, 0.003; clinical cure phase: Z=-5.36,-5.38; P<0.001,<0.001). In the acute phase, the subjective visual acuity of the affected eye was positively correlated with SPVEP visual acuity ( r=0.847, P<0.001). Conclusions:PRVEP and SPVEP are useful for objectively assessing the visual function of the patients with CSC. Especially, the slight and potential visual impairment in CSC can been detected by SPVEP.

Interpretation of American osteopathic association guidelines for osteopathic manipulative treatment of nonspecific low back pain / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Low back pain is one of the common orthopedic diseases, and nonspecific low back pain accounts for a very large proportion of all low back pains in clinic. In order to better treat the disease, in 2016, the American Orthopaedic Association developed a clinical guide for the osteopathic manipulative treatment of nonspecific low back pain. OBJECTIVE: To let orthopedic doctors, other doctors, other health professionals and third-party payers know the evidence of potential suggestions on the proper use of osteopathic manipulative treatment, so as to help clinical orthopedists to provide therapeutic reference for non-specific low back pain as well as to learn from the scientific and rigorous design ideas and evaluation methods in the guides. METHODS: The guideline is a revised version based on the previous guideline and the latest high-quality meta-analyses. It is determined that osteopathic manipulative treatment is an effective treatment for nonspecific low back pain with clear recommended level. In this paper, the definition, evaluation methods, specific contents of the guideline and results of evidence-based medicine regarding the clinical practice in China were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Seventeen studies were included in the guidelines, which systematically evaluated the effect of osteopathic manipulative treatment for acute and chronic nonspecific low back pain, as well as for nonspecific low back pain in pregnant and postpartum women. After treatment, great improvement was achieved in pain relief and functional recovery. The final suggestion by the American Orthopaedic Association is to use osteopathic manipulative treatment for low back pain. The treatment method is safe and scientific, which can be generalized in China.

Objective@#To investigate the effect and mechanism of LncRNA ANRIL on the radiosensitivity of HCT116 cells line and nude mouse transplant tumors.@*Methods@#The expression of LncRNA ANRIL in colorectal cancer cells was detected by qPCR. The negative control siRNA, ANRIL siRNA, miR-NC mimic, miR-195 mimic, miR-NC inhibitor and miR-195 inhibitor were transfected into HCT116 cells, and marked as negative control group, silencing ANRIL group, overexpressing miR-NC group, overexpressing miR-195 group, inhibiting miR-NC group and inhibiting miR-195 group, and the HCT116 cells without any treatment were marked as the blank control group. The clone formation assay was used to detect radiosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells, flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis. The web site, StarBase, was used to predict the downstream miRNAs of ANRIL and dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to further verify. Subcutaneous tumor transplantation assay was used to detect the effect of ANRIL on the growth of colorectal cancer cells after irradiation.@*Results@#After irradiation with 2, 4, 6 and 8 Gy, the cell survival fraction of silencing ANRIL group was significantly decreased when compared with that of negative control group (P<0.05), and the radiosensitivity ratio was 1.52. The apoptosis rate of the silencing ANRIL+ 4 Gy group was significantly higher than that of the negative control+ 4 Gy group ((27.86±2.78)% vs. (12.06±1.46)%, P<0.05). The results of the experiment on nude mouse transplant tumors showed that the tumor volume in the negative control group was lower than that of the silent ANRIL group on days 13, 16, 19, 22 and 25 ((234±66) mm3, (273±63) mm3, (296±72) mm3, (321±85) mm3 and (403±94) mm3 vs. (357±79) mm3, (485±124) mm3, (617±143) mm3, (764±174) mm3 and (985±221) mm3P<0.05). MiR-195 is a target gene of ANRIL, and inhibition of miR-195 can reverse the inhibitory effect of silencing ANRIL on radiosensitivity, apoptosis and xenografts of HCT116 cells.@*Conclusions@#LncRNA ANRIL regulates the radiosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells by miR-195, which may provide a new sensitizing target for clinical colorectal cancer radiotherapy.

Effect of TRPV6 channels on the biological behavior of sw480 colon cancer cell line and colonic tumorigenesis in rat model / 中国肿瘤临床

Objective: To observe the influence of TRPV6 gene silence on SW480 colon cancer cell biological behavior, change in the in-tracellular concentration of calcium, as well as influence of 1,25 (OH)2D3CaCl2and CuCl2on SD rat colonic neoplasm models. Method: SW480 colon cancer cells were infected using lentivirus particles. TRPV6 protein and mRNA expression was detected using immunohistochemical tests, Western blot, and PCR. Moreover, the proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis of SW480 colon cancer cells were detected through MTT assay and metastasis and apoptosis experiments, and the concentration of Ca2+in SW480 colon cancer cells was measured using high-speed ionic imaging. The SD rat colon cancer model was established based on DMH, and were assigned into experimental group (DMH group, 15) and intervention group (DMH+1,25 (OH)2D3group, DMH+CuCl2group) and control group, 10 in each group. The SD rat colon cancer model is established based on DMH, given 1,25(OH)2D3(37.5 nmol/kg) and CuCl2(375 μmol/kg) separately as intervention. The occurrence of colonic neoplasms and glandular cancers in each group of rats was observed, and Western blot was employed for detection of the TRPV6 protein expression. Results: After the transfection of SW480 colon cancer cells by TRPV6-RNAi, the expression of TRPV6 mRNA and protein decreased, intracellular concentration of Ca2+decreased, proliferation and metastasis rate of SW480 colon cancer cells decreased, and apoptosis rate of these cells increased. The differences between the groups with intervention and the blank control group and negative control group showed statistical significance (P<0.05). The colon cancer occurrence rate in the control group was 0, while that of the DMH+1,25 (OH)2D3 group, DMH group, and DMH+CuCl2were 100%, 84.62%, and 33.33%, respectively. The TRPV6 protein expression was detected in all groups, while DMH+1,25(OH)2D3group was observed to exhibit the highest level of expression, followed by the DMH group, DMH+CuCl2group, and control group. The differences were of statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusions: The proliferation and metastasis of SW480 colon cancer cells can be prohibited by lowering the concentration of Ca2+in the cells. Thus, the apoptosis of the cells can be induced. 1,25 (OH)2D3can help improve the expression of TRPV6 protein in experimental rat colon tissues and promote the formation of colon neoplasms. CuCl2can help lower the expression of TRPV6 protein in experimental rat colon tissues and prevent the formation of colon neoplasms.

Expression of RCAN1 and CnA in tissues of in-stent restenosis after intervention of lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans and its significance / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

Objective · To investigate the expression of the regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) and calcineurin A (CnA) in tissues of in-stent restenosis after intervention of arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO), and to explore the relationship between their expression levels and the occurance of in-stent restenosis. Methods · Superficial femoral arterial tissues were collected from 15 ASO patients undergoing lower extremity amputation for in-stent restenosis in Department of Vascular Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from September 2013 to June 2016. H-E staining and Masson staining were performed on the stenosis tissues, as well as on the proximal and distal tissues, and the morphological changes of these tissues were observed under optical microscope. Western blotting was used to detect the protein levels of RCAN1, CnA and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). The distribution of RCAN1 and CnA proteins was observed by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence methods. In addition, co-immunoprecipitation was used to validate the protein-protein interaction between RCAN1 and CnA in vascular tissues. Results · The expression of RCAN1 in the distal tissues was significantly elevated compared with the proximal tissues and the stenosis tissues (P<0.05). The expression of RCAN1 in the proximal tissues was higher than that in the stenosis tissues (P <0.05). The expression of CnA and PCNA in the stenosis tissues was significantly elevated compared with the proximal tissues and the distal tissues (P<0.05). Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence analyses showed that RCAN1 and CN proteins were mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of vascular smooth muscle cells. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis showed there is protein-protein interaction between RCAN1 and CnA in arterial tissues. Conclusion · The low expression of RCAN1 and the high expression of CnA are probably related to the occurrence of in-stent restenosis.

Effect of TRPV5 and TRPV6 channels on the biological behaviors of SW480 colon cancer cell line / 中国肿瘤临床

Objective:To investigate the role of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in intracellular calcium regulation and biological behaviors of SW480 colon cancer cells. Methods:qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemistry were applied to determine the mRNA and protein ex-pression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 colon cancer cell line upon treatment with TRPV5 and TRPV6 agonist, 1-25(OH)2D3, and inhibitor, CuCl2. The change of intracellular Ca2+level was examined with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Scratch test, MTT, and TUNEL assays were used to analyze the cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis, respectively. Results:As an agonist of TRPV5 and TRPV6, 1-25(OH)2D3 significantly up-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 cell lines. On the other hand, CuCl2, being an inhibitor of TRPV5 and TRPV6, effectively down-regulated the TRPV5 and TRPV6 mRNA and protein expres-sion levels (P<0.05). The intracellular calcium concentration in SW480 cell line significantly increased upon treatment with 1-25 (OH)2D3, and significantly decreased with CuCl2 treatment (P<0.05). 1-25(OH)2D3 promoted cell proliferation and migration, and inhibit-ed apoptosis of SW480 cell in a time-and dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). However, CuCl2 significantly repressed cell proliferation and migration and induced apoptosis (P<0.05). Conclusion: TRPV5 and TRPV6 can affect the biological behaviors of colon cancer SW480 cells by regulating intracellular Ca2+level.

Preliminary exploration on"bidding group"in medical supplies procurement system / 中国卫生政策研究

Objective: To summarize the typical experiences and practices based on the quality evaluation of medical consumables in foreign countries and the practice of drug bidding in China,and to explore the establishment of a bidding grouping scheme for medical consumables in China. Methods: Using literature analysis and evaluation method of combing foreign countries typical measures of medical consumables quality assessment,this paper summa-rized the construction of index system of bidding in China Pharmaceutical Group, and used simple statistical data to reflect the present policy of China's medical supplies such as lack of relevant policies,different levels of quality etc.. Results:There are many problems in the quality evaluation of medical consumables in China. However, the typical measures of extraterritorial quality evaluation and the practice of pharmaceutical bidding in China provide a solid theo-retical and practical basis for the establishment of medical consumable supplies bidding grouping. Conclusion:Estab-lishing bidding grouping scheme is necessary in the Chinese Medical supplies context. Based on a clear difference be-tween medical supplies and medicines,and according to the"three stage"our conceptualization gradually improved. On the basis of the existing data and practical situation,the establishment of scientific selection index bidding group division standard,has been in the exploration of the formation of China's medical supplies bidding grouping scheme.

The expression of NCX1 and its effect on proliferation and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells through regulation of intracellular Ca2+ / 中国癌症杂志

Background and purpose:Previous studies have suggested Na+-Ca2+ exchanger isoform 1 (NCX1) as a key component of calcium homeostasis was involved in the tumorigenesis. However, the role of NCX1 and calcium signal in tumorigenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been explored. This study aimed to investigate the effect of NCX1 on cell proliferation and migration of HCC HepG2 cells in vitro and the possible mechanism.Methods:Both the real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) and Western blot were applied to assess the expression of NCX1 mRNA and protein in normal hepatic cells (LO2), HCC cell line (HepG2), human normal hepatic tissues and hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. The change of intracellular calcium signal in LO2 and HepG2 cells via acti-vated NCX1 channel in the presence or absence of Na+ was examined by a confocal laser scanning microscope. The effects of NCX1 special inhibitor KB-R7943 on cell proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells were measured by MTT and cellscratch test.Results:Both mRNA and protein expression of NCX1 were higher in HCC tissues and cell line HepG2 than in the normal tissues and cell line LO2 (P<0.05). The activation of NCX1 channel induced a slight rise in cytoplasmic Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]cyt) in normal cells, but caused a marked increase in cancer cells. And the NCX1 activation induced intracellular calcium increase was significantly reversed by NCX1 inhibitor KB-R7943 (P<0.05). Both NCX1-mediated proliferation and migration of HepG2 were also significantly attenuated by the KB-R7943 (P<0.05).Conclusion:NCX1 is up-regulated in HCC cells and tissues. The activation of NCX1 mediates intracellular calcium homeostasis. The inhibition of NCX1 activity can suppress the proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells. It is suggested that NCX1 may be involved in the development and progression of HCC.
