Objective@# The short-term clinical effects of two kinds of normal temperature flow root sealers (the calcium silicate-based sealer iRoot SP and the siloxane-based sealer GuttaFlow2) combined with single point filling technology and a frequently-used sealing agent (AH Plus) combined with continuous wave hot tooth filling technology were evaluated. @*Methods @#A total of 279 teeth (656 root canals) were randomly divided into three groups: the iRoot SP group, GuttaFlow2 group and AH plus group. We recorded the filling time of each root canal, collected a digital dental film to evaluate the filling effect of each root canal, and conducted a follow-up visit one week and one month after the operation to record the incidence of pain. We used SPSS 18.0 to analyze the above data. @*Results @# There was no significant difference in the root canal filling effect among the three groups (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the filling time between the iRoot SP group and the GuttaFlow2 group (P > 0.05), but the filling time was significantly shorter in the AH Plus group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the postoperative pain between the iRoot SP group and the GuttaFlow2 group (P > 0.05), and the incidence of pain in the iRoot SP group and the GuttaFlow2 group was lower than that in the AH Plus group (P < 0.05).@*Conclusions @# GuttaFlow2 and iRoot SP combined with single point filling technology can save filling time and obtain good clinical effects compared with frequently-used hot tooth filling technology and the incidence of postoperative pain was low.
Résumé
This study aimed to detect the expression of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) and evaluate its correlation with disease risk, stenosis degree, inflammation, as well as overall survival (OS) in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. A total of 230 patients who underwent diagnostic coronary angiography were consecutively recruited and assigned to CAD group (n=125) or control group (n=105) according to presence or absence of CAD. Gensini score was calculated to assess the severity of coronary artery damage. Plasma samples were collected and the expression ANRIL was detected in all participants. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and IL-17 in CAD patients were measured and OS was calculated. The relative expression of ANRIL was higher in CAD patients compared to controls (P<0.001). Receiver operating characteristic disclosed that ANRIL could distinguish CAD patients from controls with an area under the curve of 0.789 (95%CI: 0.731-0.847). Spearman's rank correlation test revealed that expression of ANRIL was positively correlated with Gensini score (P=0.001), levels of hs-CRP (P=0.001), ESR (P=0.038), TNF-α (P=0.004), and IL-6 (P<0.001), while negatively correlated with IL-10 level (P=0.008) in CAD patients. Kaplan-Meier curve revealed that high expression of ANRIL was associated with shorter OS (P=0.013). In conclusion, circulating ANRIL presented a good diagnostic value for CAD, and its high expression was associated with increased stenosis degree, raised inflammation, and poor OS in CAD patients.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefits and risks of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation in patients with chronic kidney disease. A systematic search of articles in PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and reference lists was performed to find relevant literature. All eligible studies assessed proteinuria, the serum creatinine clearance rate, the estimated glomerular filtration rate, or the occurrence of end-stage renal disease. Standard mean differences with 95% confidence intervals for continuous data were used to estimate the effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on renal function, as reflected by the serum creatinine clearance rate, proteinuria, the estimated glomerular filtration rate, and relative risk. Additionally, a random-effects model was used to estimate the effect of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on the risk of end-stage renal disease. Nine randomized controlled trials evaluating 444 patients with chronic kidney disease were included in the study. The follow-up duration ranged from 2 to 76.8 months. Compared with no or low-dose omega-3 fatty acid supplementation, any or high-dose omega-3 fatty acid supplementation, respectively, was associated with a lower risk of proteinuria (SMD: -0.31; 95% CI: -0.53 to -0.10; p=0.004) but had little or no effect on the serum creatinine clearance rate (SMD: 0.22; 95% CI: -0.40 to 0.84; p=0.482) or the estimated glomerular filtration rate (SMD: 0.14; 95% CI: -0.13 to 0.42; p=0.296). However, this supplementation was associated with a reduced risk of end-stage renal disease (RR: 0.49; 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.99; p=0.047). In sum, omega-3 fatty acid supplementation is associated with a significantly reduced risk of end-stage renal disease and delays the progression of this disease.

Objective@#To investigate the situation of dental fluorosis and residents awareness of dental flourosis in rural area of Tianjin, providing the basis for control of dental fluorosis prevalence level and continuous supervise of dental fluorosis prevalence.@*Methods@#The objectives were selected by stratified cluster sampling method. Health interview survey and oral examination were perfor med. @*Results @#The prevalence of dental fluorosis was 5.2% in 3-5 years children group, 68.6% in 12-14 years youth group, 64.5% in 15 years youth group, and 68.2% in 35-74 years group. The prevalence of dental fluorosis in 12-14 years group was lower than that in 2005 (χ2=21.62, P < 0.001). The community index of dental fluorosis (CFI ) was 0.1 in 3-5 years children group, 1.48 in 12-15 years youth group, 1.85 in 35-74 years old group. 47.7% students knew nothing about dental fluorosis, and 54.2% adult dental fluorosis patients did not know they were suffering from dental fluorosis. 47.4% of the subjects knew the relationship between dental fluorosis and fluoride in drinking water, and 18.8% subjects considered dental fluorosis was related with tooth cleaning. @*Conclusion @#The prevalence of dental fluorosis in 12-14 years old students was lower than 12 years old at 2005, but the increase of prevalence of dental fluorosis in 3-5 years children indicates the intake of fluorosis should be more strictly controlled. The awareness of dental fluorosis in rural area residents is poor and oral health education about fluorosis should be enhanced.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the predictive value of pediatrics end-stage liver disease (PELD) or the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) in the prognosis of pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) treated with artificial liver support system (ALSS).</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The clinical data of 47 children with acute liver failure seen from August 2008 to July 2013 treated in Children's Hospital, Fudan University were analyzed. Thirty children were treated with ALSS in addition to conventional comprehensive medical treatment (ALSS group). Seventeen children were treated with only conventional comprehensive medical treatment (control group). The main biochemical parameters and coagulation function parameters before and after treatment were compared in the ALSS group and the mortality rates were compared between the two groups. The patients were graded by PELD or MELD when they were hospitalized and the relationship of PELD or MELD scores and mortalities of child patients with the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>There were significant differences in total bilirubin (TB) ((302 ± 208) vs. (161 ± 129) µmol/L); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ((161 ± 225) vs. (761 ± 834) U/L); aspartate aminotransferase ( AST) (66 (35, 123 ) vs. 447 (184, 1,129 ) U/L) ; international normalized ratio (INR) ((2.6 ± 1.6) vs. (5.1 ± 4.0)); prothrombin time activity percentage (PTA) ((42 ± 25)% vs. (22 ± 13)%); albumin( ALB) ((35 ± 5) vs. (33 ± 6) g/L) in the ALSS group after treatment. Through the ROC curve analysis, the best PELD/MELD threshold was 25 to predict the patients survival after ALSS therapy, with a sensitivity of 92. 3% , and a specificity of 94.1% at the cutoff point. The area under the ROC curve was 0. 912. The mortality of patients with PELD or MELD score below 25 in the ALSS group (1/13) was lower than the control group (3/4) (P = 0.022), and the mortality of patients with PELD or MELD score over 25 (16/17) was higher than that of the control group (10/13) (P = 0.290).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PELD or MELD score is a valid index in prognostic evaluation of ALSS therapy, which may provide an evidence for the therapeutic strategies of PALF. Patients with PELD or MELD score below 25 treated with ALSS obtained more benefit.</p>

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the endoscope-assisted supraorbital keyhole approach in the early surgical treatment of patients with ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms (AcoA). Methods Thirty-five patients with ruptured AcoA, admitted to our hospital from January 2002 to January 2010, adopted clipping via endoscope-assisted supraorbital keyhole approach within 72 h of onset. The neurostatus of these patients were ranged from grade 1 to 3 (Hunt-Hiss Scale scores). The surgical details were described, and the clinical results were assessed according to the scores of Glasgow Outcome Scale.Results Operations were successfully finished in all patients; the endoscope-assisted supraorbital keyhole approach offered sufficient exposure of neurovascular structures for clipping AcoA. Intraoperative accidental aneurysm rupture occurred in 2 patients, but these events were managed successfully by blocking-up the parent artery and performing quick aneurysm neck dissection; no serious complications caused by the surgical approach occurred; postoperative DSA or CTA indicated that the aneurysm was totally clipped and the parent artery appeared no stenosis, and distal artery was unobstructed. Three months after the operation, 30 patients (85.7%) achieved very good outcomes (GOS:4-5 scores). All the patients achieved good cosmetic results. Conclusion In selected AcoA patients with grade 1-3, the endoscope-assisted supraorbital keyhole approach is safe and effective for gaining access to and treating the aneurysms on early hemorrhage stage.
