RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the efficacy of 1g/L topical cyclosporine A ( tCsA ) in preventing the recurrence of pterygium after pterygium excision and conjunctival flap rotation technique. ●METHODS:Fifty-eight patients (58 eyes) with primary pterygium were included in this prospective study. All eyes were operated with pterygium excision and conjunctival flap rotation technique, and divided into treatment and control group according to whether be treated with 1g/L tCsA eye drops after operation. The operated patients were followed up for 1y to assess the recurrence of pterygium. ●RESULTS: After surgery, the difference between the tCsA treatment and control group were statistically significant in the Schirmer l test results (9. 93 ± 1. 59mm/5min vs 8. 47±1. 53mm/5min, P ●CONCLUSION:tCsA eye drops are safe and effective for medical treatment to reduce rates of recurrence after pterygium surgery.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of the left bacteria on the root canal therapy.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>50 single-rooted teeth with chronic apical periodontitis were divided into two groups, one was instrumented with step-back technique and 2.5%NaOCl ultrasonic irrigation for 3 min, then filled with Thermafil. Samples were taken after instrumentation to culture. The other was treated with traditional RCT at three visits.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In 24 months the apical radiolucency were greatly reduced in all cases. There weren't significant relationship among the postoperative pain and the left bacteria, the degree of the obturation or the pre-operative symptoms (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The effect of left bacteria in root canal filled with Thermafil wasn't observed.</p>
