ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of cone beam computed tomography measurement of maxillary anterior teeth on implant success and patient satisfaction of maxillary anterior teeth.Methods:120 patients who underwent maxillary anterior teeth implantation in Hangzhou Dental Hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either conventional maxillary anterior teeth implantation (control group, n = 60) or cone beam computed tomography measurement of maxillary anterior teeth and maxillary anterior teeth implantation (study group, n = 60). The implant success rate was compared between the two groups. Alveolar bone thickness and ISQ value immediately, 3 and 12 months after implantation as well as patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results:Implant success rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [96.67% (58/60) vs. 85.00% (51/60), χ2 = 4.904, P < 0.05]. In the observation group, alveolar bone thickness at 3 and 12 months after implantation was (1.53 ± 0.05) mm and (1.78 ± 0.12) mm, respectively, which was significantly higher than that in the control group [(1.46 ± 0.04) mm, (1.64 ± 0.10) mm, t = 9.839, 8.066, both P < 0.001]. In the observation group, ISQ value at 3 and 12 months after implantation was (76.83 ± 5.49) and (82.91 ± 4.85), respectively, which was significantly higher than that in the control group [(67.81 ± 4.61), (74.18 ± 5.21), t = 11.324, 11.038, both P < 0.001). Total satisfaction rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [95.00% (57/60) vs. 81.67% (49/60), χ2 = 5.175, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Cone beam computed tomography measurement of maxillary anterior teeth can help increase implant success rate and patient satisfaction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the classification of ultrasound images of hepatic parenchyma of schistosomiasis japonica. Methods A total of 2 918 hepatic photographs were selected and classified . All the photographs came from the former research project, which had B ultrasonography examination for residents from three medium endemic villages adjacent to the Dongting Lake,such as Huarong, Hanshou, Lixian, and for advanced schistosomiasis patients in Xiangyue hospital. Results For these hepatic parenchyma images there were five types, including normal echogenic dots (91 photographs), widened echogenic dots (1 757 photographs), echogenic paths(121 photographs), e-chogenic strips (467 photographs) and echogenic bands (482 photographs), etc. , and eight patterns, including nomal echogenic dots (91 photographs), widened echogenic dots (1 757 photographs), echogenic slices (59 photographs), echogenic patches (62 photographs), fine strips (323 photographs), coarse strips (144 photographs), narrow reticular(280 photographs) and wide reticular (202 photographs). Conclusion B ultrasonic images of the liver of schistosomiasis japonica can be classified into five types and eight patterns.
