Clinical evaluation of short fiber ribbon combined with resin bonding technology for the treatment of food impaction between posterior teeth / 实用口腔医学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of short fiber ribbon combined with resin bonding technology for the treatment of food impaction between posterior teeth. Methods:98 cases of vertical food impaction between posterior teeth( total of 135 vertical food impaction units) were included. 73 units were treated by short quartz fiber ribbon combined with resin bonding technology( SQFRB) and 63 by resin bonding(RB). 12, 24 and 36 months after restoration, clinical effects were evaluated referring to the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) Criteria, data were statistically analyzed. Results:12, 24 and 36 months after treatment the cure rate of SQFRB was 97. 3%, 97. 3% and 95. 9%, inefficacy rate was 0, 0 and 0;the cure rate of RB was 85. 5%, 82. 2% and 82. 2%, the inefficacy rate was 4. 8%, 11. 3% and 12. 9%, respectively(between groups, P<0. 05). Conclusion:Minimally inva-sive restorations using short fiber ribbon combined with resin bonding technology is effective in the treatment of vertical food impaction between posterior teeth.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of nicergoline combined with donepezil hydrochlo-ride in the treatment of mild vascular dementia and its influence on cognitive function.Methods 66 patients with mild vascular dementia from neurology were divided into two groups by random numbers,33 cases in each group.On the based of the routine symptomatic treatment,the control group were given nicergoline,the observation group were treated with nicergoline combined with aricept.Four weeks was a course,both groups were continuously treated for 3 courses.Results The MMSE scores of the observation group after treatment was (36.7 ±5.7)points,which was significantly increased compared with before treatment(t =10.137,P <0.05)and the control group(t =11.236,P <0.05);The ADL score was(35.8 ±16.2)points,which was significantly lower compared with before treatment(t =10.825,P <0.05)and the control group(t =11.415,P <0.05);The total effective rate of the observation group was 78.9%,which was higher than 54.5% of the control group(χ2 =9.24,P <0.05).Conclusion Nicergoline com-bined with donepezil hydrochloride in the treatment of mild vascular dementia can significantly improve cognitive func-tion scores,and it is a significant effect,safe and reliable method.

Synergistic effect ofRhBMP-2 and bFGF on ectopic osteogenesis in mice

Objective:To investigate the synergistic effect and mechanism of the combined application of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2(rhBMP-2) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF).Methods:24KM male mice were randomly divided into6 groups with4 mice in each group, namely,GroupA(control group),GroupB(only treated with collagen),GroupC(treated with 2 ng bFGF+collagen),GroupD(treated with4 μg rhBMP-2+collagen),GroupE(treated with4 μg rhBMP-2+2 ng bFGF+collagen) andGroupF(treated with4 μg rhBMP-2+4 ng bFGF+collagen). The composites were implanted into the intermuscular septum of hind legs mice; whereas in control group, intermuscular septum of mice was separated and no implantation was performed. General observation, detection of concentration of calcium content, micro computed tomography (Micro-CT), three-dimensional reconstruction scan, measurement of bone mineral density(BMD), bone volume fraction(BVF) and trabecular thickness(Tb.Th), as well as histological observation withHE staining andALP andCD34 immumohistochemical staining were performed.Results:Ectopic osteogenesis was found inGroupsD,E andF mice.The difference in concentration of calcium contentswas statistically significant betweenGroupsD andE(P0.05).Micro-CT and three-dimensional reconstruction revealed continuous newborn bone substance in external surface of ectopic bone formation, and the center of bone formation did not show obvious substantial filling by bone substance.The differences in BMD,BVF andTb.Th were statistically significant betweenGroupsD andE orF(P<0.01 or <0.05). HE staining showed that inGroupsD,E andF, newborn bone substance was mainly located at the edge of ectopic bone formation, and the bone formation inGroupsE andF was better than that in GroupD.ALP andCD34 immumohistochemical staining revealed the positive expression mainly at the edge of ectopic bone formation, and area of positiveexpression inGroupsE andF was larger than that inGroupsD.Conclusions:rhBMP-2 possesses the capacity to induce ectopic osteogenesis independently, but bFGF does not have this ability; the combined application of rhBMP-2 and bFGF can enhance the synergetic effect on inducing ectopic osteogenesis.

The inhibitory effect of aminoguanidine on periodontitis in rats / 中国病理生理杂志

AIM: To study the inhibitory effect of aminoguanidine(AG) on periodontitis. METHODS: Experimental periodontitis was produced in rats by a ligature of braided silk, the NO concentration was assayed by spectrophototometry, the attachment loss of periodontium was measured by using technology for image and graphics engineering research and the histopathologic changes of periodontium were also examined under a light microscope. RESULTS: The NO concentration significantly decreased after AG treatment for 4 weeks, and the inflammation and the damages of periodontium was also reduced significantly. CONCLUSION: The inhibition of iNOS by AG may be a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of periodontitis.

The titer and avidity of IgG antibody against Porphyromonas gingivalis in sera from patients with early-onset periodontitis / 中国病理生理杂志

AIM: To investigate the titer and avidity of serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody for surface antigens of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) in sera from patients with early-onset periodontitis (EOP) and evaluate the interrelationship of the antibody titer and avidity. METHODS: 15 patients with early-onset periodontitis, 16 patients with adult periodontitis(AP) and 14 periodontally healthy subjects(HS) participated in this study. Levels and avidities of IgG antibody against P.gingivalis lipopolysaccharide(LPS) were measured. Serum IgG titers against P.gingivalis antigens were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). IgG avidity was measured by diethylamine dissociation ELISA. RESULTS: Serum IgG antibody levels against P.gingivalis LPS in EOP and AP patients were significantly higher than that of healthy subjects (P0.05). Antibody avidities to P. gingivalis in EOP were significantly higher than that of AP patients and HS group (P0.05). CONCLUSION: These results indicate that there is no correlation between antibody levels and avidities in EOP and AP patients. IgG avidity can be considered as a valuable parameter in the diagnosis of EOP.
