Clinical efficacy of EH composite material combined with CAD/CAM technique in plastic treatment of unilateral micrognathia / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy in the treatment of unilateral micrognath ia by using EAM medical resin and hydroxyapatite (EH) composite material combined with the CAD/ CAM technique.Methods From July 2011 to October 2015,12 cases of unilateral micrognathia caused by different reasons were treated,based on the representative traits and requirements,refering to the unsymmetric counter part by right of CAD/CAM technique.By the 3-dimensional design and reconstruction,we reformed the EH composite material into purposed shape,and insert it in the operative area.Results All the materials were closely suitable to the mandible surfaces.1 case failed because the wound was torn apart;the other 11 patients recovered more than 6 months and were satisfied with the external appearance.Conclusions The EH composite materials combined with CAD/ CAM techniques could be a potential characterized remedy for the unilateral micrognathia.

Effect of praziquantel on schistosomal ovum granuloma and hepatic fibrosis Ⅱ Effect of praziquantel on cells within pulmonary schistosomal ovum granuloma in mice / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

Objective To study the effect of praziquantel on cells within sehistosomal ovum granuloma in the lung of mice.Methods Forty-eight mice were divided into 4 groups.Group A:first,the mice were injected with sehistosomal ova hypodermically in abdomen,and 10 days later,injected with schistosomal ova intravenously in the cauda;Group B:in addition to the injection of schistosomal ova as the same of Group A,the mice were administered with praziquantel[300 mg/(kg·d)]for 3 days,one day before the intravenous injection of the ova;Group C:in addition to the injection of schistosomal ova as the same of Group A,the mice were administered with praziquantel(75 mg/kg,B.i.d.) for 5 days weekly until the mice were sacrificed;Group D:the same as Group C but praziquantel was given to the mice from the 29th after the intravenous injection of the ova.Three mice of each group were sacrificed on the 7th,14th,28th,56th day after the intravenous injection of the ova and the lung tissues were fixed with formalin and the slices were HE stained.Twenty-five to thirty pieces of schistosomal ovum granuloma were examined and the neutrophilic granulocytes,eosinocytes,lymphocytes,fibroblasts and macrophages within the ovum granulomas were counted and the mean numbers of them of each group were calculated and compared.Results Compared with Group A,the mean numbers of neutrophilic granulocytes,eosinocytes and macrophages within the ovum granulomas were decreased significantly,and the extend of the increase of fibroblasts reduced significantly in the three groups administered with praziquantel,and especially in Group C.On the 56th day after the intravenous injection of the ova,the mean numbers of neutrophilic granulocytes,eosinocytes and macrophages decreased by 54.4%、87.0% and 23.1%,and the extend of the increase of fibroblasts reduce by 59.4%,respectively in Group C,compared with Group A.The numbers of lymphocytes did not change very much in 4 groups.Conclusion Praziquantel can restrain inflammatory cells and the hyperplasia of fibroblasts within schistosomal ovum granulomas.

Esthetic evaluation after modified anterior segmental osteotomy on maxillary protrusion / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective The main goals of orthognathic surgery are to achieve funetional occlusion and improve patient's profile.The unintended nasal change in association with anterior maxillary osteotomy is always a challenging.The purpose of this study was to improve the anterior maxillary segmental osteotomy resulting in less post-operative unintended nasal change.Methods Thirty-two patients with maxillary protrusion underwent modified anterior subapical maxillary osteotomy.The design of the modified approach was based on the anterior mandibular subapical osteotomy.The horizontal osteotomy connecting the vertical osteotomy lines on both right and left sides was performed inferior to the piriform aperture and 3 mm over the apex.The integrity of piriform aperture was maximally preserved.Lateral cephalograms,lateral and frontal photographs taken pre-and post-operatively were analyzed.All the patients were followed up for at least 6 months.Results All thirty-two patients were satisfied with esthetic outcome.The upper lip protrusions and tooth exposure improved significantly.Cephalometric and photograph analysis showed that the ratio of upper lip to maxillary ineisor retractionwas 0.64:1.00,and the nasolabial angle and philtrum length were significantly increased(P＜0.05)while vermilion length was decreased.The height of nasal tip and nasal width(alarbase to alarbase)were not significantly changed.Conclusion The modified anterior subapical maxillary osteotomy is a simple procedure leading to no significant postoperative nasal change.It provides a promising alternative in the treatment of maxillary protrusion.

GENERAL EVALUATION OF CONTROL MEASURES OF KALA-AZAR IN JIANGSU PROVINCE IN CHINA / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

In 1958. Kala-azar was basically eliminated in Jiangsu province. Because vigorous control measures were taken afterwords, only 11 Kala-azar patients were detected during 1973-1985. For general evaluation of control measures of Kala-azar, an overall survey on a relatively large scale was conducted in 1991-1992 in 56 townships located in 14 counties of 4 prefectures and cities. The results showed that neither new Kala-azar patient was detected nor infectious sandfly was found, the immune status of population was similar to those in which Kala-azar has been eliminated. We consider the control measures of Kala-azar in Jiangsu province is more consolidated than ever and the province has now tured to be a non-endemic area.

POPULATION GENETICS OF ONCOMELANIA SPP. IN MAINLAND CHINA——Ⅲ RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENETIC VARIATION AND GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

The genetic divergence between geographically separated populations can be studied by comparing the divergences in their allele frequencies to the geographical distance of popula-tions. The present study is to examine the divergences in allele frequencies and genetic diver-gence in relation to the geogrephical distance of the samples localities, in order to test the population structure model of Oncomelania from the endemic areas in mainland China.The results showed that three patterns of allele frequency distributions occured in seven polymorphic loci, which were even,chaotic and discontinuous cline distributions. The distcon-tinuous or stepped clines shown in loci Est-4,Got and Mdh-2 suggested that the discrete subpopuation model is the likeliest. The plot of genetic distance (Nei's 1978) between sample populations against the geographic distances suggested that the special pattern of allele fre-quency distribution could be found. The regression analysis shows that logistic sigmoid re-gression is the best model to fit the original data in the plot. This supports the existence of the discrete subpopulations model in the population structure studied.

STUDIES ON THE ANTIGEN LOCATION OF SCHISTOSOMA JAPONICUM, CLONORCHIS SINENSIS AND PARAGONIMUS WESTERMANI / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

The antigen location of Schistosoma japonicum, Clonorchis sinensis and Paragonimus westermani were studied by using immunogold-silver staining(IGSS) and indirect fluorescent antibody test(IFAT). The results showed that the specific antigen of S.japoniaum was located in its gut wall and tegument, and those of Clonorchis sinensis and Paragonimus westermani in their gut wall. The specific antigen component in seminal vesicle of Clonorhis sinensis is also observed with IGSS. There is specific antigen in tte tegument of Paragonimus westermani too.
