RESUMEN
Abstract Introduction: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a global disease responsible for a large number of deaths, with significant economic impact. As diagnostic tools have increased in sensitivity, understanding of the etiology of CAP has begun to change. Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of the major pathogens causing CAP. Macrolides and related antibiotics are first-line treatments for M. pneumoniae. Macrolide resistance has been spreading for 15 years and now occurs in worldwide. We undertook the first study on macrolide resistance of M. pneumoniae in Yantai. This may be helpful to determine the appropriate therapy for CAP in this population. Objective: To investigate the rate and mechanism of macrolide resistance in Yantai. Methods: Pharyngeal swab samples were collected from adult CAP patients. Samples were assayed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cultivated to test for M. pneumoniae. Nested PCR was used to specifically amplify M. pneumoniae 23S rRNA gene fragments containing mutations, and amplicons were analyzed by CE-SSCP for macrolide resistance mutations. Results were confirmed by sequencing. Twenty-seven strains of M. pneumoniae were isolated and the activities of nine antibiotics against M. pneumoniae were tested in vitro. Results: Out of 128 samples tested, 27 were positive for M. pneumoniae. Mycoplasma 100% macrolides resistance to Mycoplasma pneumoniae. The mechanism of macrolides resistance was A2063G point mutation in the sequence directly binding to macrolides in the 23S rRNA V domain in vitro. The mean pyretolytic time for the fluoroquinolone group was 4.7 ±2.9 d, which was significantly shorter than 8.2 ±4.1 d for the azithromycin group. Conclusions: Macrolides are not the first-line treatment for M. pneumoniae respiratory tract infections in Yantai.
Resumen Introducción: Neumonía adquirida por en la comunidad (NAC) es una enfermedad responsable por un gran número de muertes y un impacto económico importante. Debido a que el diagnostico incrementó la sensibilidad, se cambió la etiología de la NAC. Adicionalmente, Mycoplasma pneumoniae es uno de los patógenos que causan la NAC. Los macrólidos y antibióticos relacionados son la primera línea de tratamiento para M. pneumoniae. La resistencia a macrólidos se aumentó en los últimos 15 años y ahora se encuentra distribuido en todo el mundo. Nosotros realizamos el primer estudio de resitencia a M. pneumoniae a los macrólidos en Yantai. Esto podría ser útil para determinar una terapia apropiada para NAC en esta población. Objetivo: Investigar la tasa y el mecanismo para la resitencia a los macrólidos en Yantai. Métodos: Se colectaron muestras faringeas usando un hisopo. Las muestras se analizaron mediante la reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR) y por cultivo para M. pneumoniae. Se uso una PCR anidad para amplificar fragmentos del gen 23S rRNA especifico con las mutaciones para M. pneumoniae. Se analizaron amplicomes por CE-SSCP para determinar la resitencia a los macrólidos. Estos resultados se confirmaron por secuenciación. Se aislaron 27 cepas de M. pneumoniae y se probaron nueve antibióticos in vitro. Resultados: De 128 muestras, 27 fueron positivas para M. pneumoniae. Se determinó una resistencia a macrólidos por Mycoplasma del 100%. Los mecanismos de esta resitencia fue una mutacion punctual A2063G en la secuencia que se une directamente a los macrólidos en el dominio 23S rRNA V in vitro. El tiempo piotolítico medio para el grupo de fluoroquinolonas fue 4.7 ±2.9 d, que fue significativamente más corto que para el grupo de azitromicina: 8.2 ±4.1 d. Conclusiones: Los macrólidos no son la primera linea de tratamiento para las infecciones del tracto respiratorio contra M. pneumoniae respiratory tract infections en Yantai.

Objective Periodontal tissue engineering has shown a highlight prospect in the treatment of periodontitis,but the related clinical experiments have not achieved the predetermined goal. In this study,we analyzed the reasons for the limited clinical efficacy of periodontal tissue engineering. Methods We primarily cultured the periodontal tissue from the young permanent teeth extracted for or-thodontic treatment,isolated periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs),and transplanted the well-grown third-generation PDLSCs onto the fluorapatite-polycaprolactone (FA-PCL) nanofiber scaffolds and PCL nanofiber scaffolds. We randomly divided the cells into groups A (cultured with 10 ng/mL porphyromonas gingivalis lipopo-lysaccharide (Pg-LPS)+FA-PCL),B (cultured with 10 ng/mL PG-LPS+PCL),C (cultured with 10 μg/mL PG-LPS+FA-PCL),D (cultured with 10 μg/mL PG-LPS+PCL),E (cultured with FA-PCL),and F (cultured with PCL),and observed their proliferation,differentiation and mineralization. Results The PDLSCs adhered and grew well after transplanted onto the nanofiber scaffolds and their proliferation significantly increased in groups A and B but decreased in C and D as compared with E and F. At 7 days,the expres-sions of ALP and mineralization-related genes runx2 and SPP1 in the PDLSCs were significantly higher in group E than in the other five groups (P<0.05),but higher groups A and C than in B and D as well as in A than in C. At 28 days,alizarin red and Von Kossa stai-ning showed a higher positivity in group E than in the other five groups,but higher groups A and C than in B and D as well as in A than in C. Conclusion The inflammatory environment not only affects the proliferation of PDLSCs,but also inhibits their differentiation and mineralization. The FA-PCL scaffold can reduce the cytotoxic effect of PG-LPS.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of using marrow stromal cells (MSC) as seed cells and three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite as scaffolds for constructing tissue-engineered bone.Methods:MSC from rat were cultured and induced to differentiate into osteoblasts in vitro. And then these induced cells were identified and seeded onto three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite scaffolds, cultured for 15 days in vitro. Scanning electron microscopy was used to evaluate the growth of these induced cells on three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite scaffolds. Results: The activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and the secretion of osteocalcin of MSC from rat appeared and were increased gradually along the culture. The cells seeded on three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite scaffolds could adhere and proliferate well, and come into being many tiny calcium nodules and collagenous fibers. Conclusion:The data demonstrated that the new developed culture method is conducive to MSC’s differentiating and proliferating into osteoblasts that have a fine activity and the three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite may be considered as a suitable scaffold for the seeded cells. Using marrow stromal cells as seed cells and three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxylapatite as scaffolds is advantageous for constructing tissue-engineered bone.

RESUMEN
Objective:To summarize the experience of reconstruction of mandibular defects with vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap.Methods:Segmental mandibular resection and immediate reconstruction with vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap were performed in 8 patients with tumor.The fibula flaps were cut into 2-4 segments and bent to the contour of the mandibles,and they were fixed precisely by the titanium plate.The skin flaps were used for reconstruction of soft tissue defects or as observation windows of the blood circulation.Results:In all 8 patients,transplanted vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flaps survived well,and restoration of mandibular contour and function was satisfactory. Conclusion:The fibular osteocutaneous flap can be cut into segments and shaped according to location and contour of mandibular defect.Vascularized fibular osteocutaneous flap may be an ideal selection for the reconstruction of mandibular defect.
RESUMEN
Recently,increasing evidence suggests that gingivitis and periodontitis may be one of the etiological factors for some adverse pregnancy outcomes such as preterm birth,preeclampsia,fetal growth restriction and lateral miscarriage.Although there are some conflicting findings and potential problems regarding uncontrolled underlying risk factors,most of the clinical studies indicate a positive correlation of gingivitis and periodontitis with those complications.This review discusses the relationship and its possible pathological mechanism in order to better prevent the development of adverse pregnancy outcomes.
