RESUMO
AIM: To study the effects of fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) on directional differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) into odontoblasts and pulp tissue.METHODS: hDPSCs were isolated and cultured, and identified with flow cytometry by detecting cell surface markers of hDPSCs.FGF8 at concentration of 50 μg/L was added into the mineralization fluid to induce the differentiation of the hDPSCs.The mRNA expression of dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and core-binding factor alpha 1 (Cbfa-1) in differentiated cells was detected by real-time PCR.FGF8 and mouse E11.5 dental epithelium formed restructuring cell group with hDPSCs, and then the restructuring cell group was transplanted under renal capsule membrane in nude mice for tissue culture.DNA in situ hybridization was used to identify the sources of odontoblasts and pulp cells.RESULTS: The surface markers of CD29 and CD90 showed positive in isolated hDPSCs.FGF8 induced hDPSCs to form a distinct mineralization nodule, and the expression of dentin-specific proteins, DSPP, BSP and Cbfa-1, was increased.hDPSCs were induced to differentiate into odontoblasts and pulp cells by E11.5 dental epithelium and FGF8.CONCLUSION: FGF8 can assist dental epithelium to induce directional differetiation of hDPSCs into odontoblasts and pulp cells, and formation of dentin and dental pulp cavity structure.
RESUMO
At present, the monitoring methods fwor intracranial pressure adopted in clinical practice are almost all invasive. The invasive monitoring methods for intracranial pressure were accurate, but they were harmful to the patient's body. Therefore, non-invasive methods for intracranial pressure monitoring must be developed. Since 1980, many non-invasive methods have been sprung out in succession, but they can not be used clinically. In this paper, research contents and progress of present non-invasive intracranial pressure monitoring are summarized. Advantages and disadvantages of various ways are analyzed. And finally, perspectives of development for intracranial pressure monitoring are presented.

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has been one of the main public heath problems that the Chinese public is facing. In order to estimate and predict the development of the epidemic situation, we studied on cellular automaton with the mechanism and characteristics of AIDS, and sets up an AIDS model on the base of the principle of cellular automaton. By studying the model, we analyzed the segregation power and AIDS-immune persons' influence on the transmission of the diseases. Some estimations and predictions can be drawn by studying model parameters. The structure of the model is flexible, and so it can change control tactics during evolution. Traditional differential equation cannot come up to it under the circumstances. It serves as tool with a great significance to the control as well as the prevention of AIDS.

Objective To investigate the effect of delighted thinking on improving negative emotion of depression patients. Methods 100 depression patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 50 in each according to admission sequence. Both groups was executed antidepressionant drugs treatment and routine psychiatric care simultaneously. The observation group was given delighted thinking training on the basis of above treatment. The emotional recovery of two groups was observed. Results There was significant difference on facial expression, communication and limbs language after executing delighted thinking training in the observation group. And there was significant difference on scores of Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD) at discharge. Scores of Nurses' Observation Scale during early, middle and late stage of delighted thinking training greatly improved compared with those before training. Conclusions Delighted thinking contributes to throw off negative thinking pattern of self-denial, stimulate positive passion threshold, improve depressed mood and raise treatment effect for depression patients.
