ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the osteogenetic character and repairing maxillary sinus superior wall fractures capability of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) before and after combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetie protein-7(rhBMP-7).@*METHOD@#A 10 mmX5 mm bone defect in the maxillary sinus superior wall was induced by surgery in all 24 New Zealand white rabbits. These 24 rabbits were randomly divided into two groups. The defects were repaired with CPC group (n = 12) and CPC/rhBMP-7 group (n = 12). The osteogenesis of bone defect was monitored by gro'ss observation, histological examination, observation under scanning electron microscope and measurement of ALP activity at 6 and 12 weeks after the implantation.@*RESULT@#In group CPC,new bone was found to form slowly and little by little. In group CPC/rhBMP-7, however, new bone was observed to form early and massively. The ALP activity in group CPC showed significant statistical difference with that of group CPC/rhBMP-7 (P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The CPC/rhBMP-7 composite has osteoconductibility and osteoinductibility, comparing the use of CPC/rhBMP-7 with CPC for the repair of orbital fracture, the former show obvious advantage repairing ability in maxillary sinus superior wall defect.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of using low Kv,low iodine contrast Agent concentration (dual low)CT scan techniques in Coronary CTA (CCTA).Methods Seventy-six patients undergoing CCTA were divided into Group A and Group B , randomly.Group A (38 patients)was the dual-low group,which was scanned with tube voltage of 100 kVp,and injected with iso-osmolarity contrast agent visipaque 270 (270 mg I/mL),with iterative reconstruction technique (ASIR 40%).Group B (38 pa-tients)was scanned with 120 kVp,and low osmolarity contrast agent omnipaque 350 (350 mg I/mL)and FBP reconstruction,The images are assessed double-blindly by two experienced radiologists.Five ROIs were placed onto the ascending root of aorta (AO), left main artery(LM),left anterior descending (LAD),left circumflex artery(LCX),right coronary artery (RCA),and the image qualities are evaluated objectively using CT values,noise,signal noise ratio (SNR),contrast noise ratio (CNR),and compared sta-tistically using Paired t-test.The radiation dosages,such as CTDIvol,DLP and ED were also recorded and compared with Paired t-test.Results CTDIvol,DLP and ED of Group A (dual low)decreased 35.7%,38.6% and 38.6% respectively compared with Group B,the iodine intake decreased 22.9%.While the image qualities of the two groups were not significantly different,all images are good enough for diagnosis,with Group A slightly better than Group B in radiologists’scores.Conclusion Voltage 100 kVp, combined with low contrast agent concentration of 270 mg I/mL can fully satisfy the diagnostics need in CCTA,and significantly lower both the radiation dosage and iodine intake.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss with micro-tympanoplastic operation with osteo retention on treating cholesteatomatous otitismedis. Methods Choose 33 cases cholesteatomatous otitis medis patients who toke the tympanoplastic with osteo retention operation,then analyze the postulate and method of the operation, curative effect and complication after operation. Results Follow up with those patients by 12-72 months, and when 3-4 months after operation we endoscopiced the ears, could see that 43 cases of patients ear mastoid process and tympanic sinus were covered with epithelium, those mastoid cavity were well epithelial metaplasia;and the middle ear was separate from mastoid cavity; 39 cases patient of transplant eardrums are heal up (39/43, 90.7%). 2 cases have perforation of the tympanic membrane toke place after 4 months and 6 months with the operation, and it will heal up by anti-inflammatory drug and laser burning, 1 case had tympanic sinus hyperplasia with granulation tissue, and also had grassery juice; after taken anti-inflammatory drug and change bandage for 15 weeks, the symptom disappear. 1 case had grassery juice of operation cavity, after taking anti-inflammatory drug and physiotherapy, the symptom disappear in 24 weeks. After operation the pure tone audiometry shows that air conduction raise (16.8±6.8) dB HL, hearing raise up to:79.1%(34/43). Conclusion Base on right indication of operation choose, taken combined therapy of ambi-operation period, focus of infection are thoroughly cleaning up. Tympanoplastic with osteo retention are treating well with patients of cholesteatomatous otitismedis.
