RESUMO
Objective:To statistically analyze SCI paper output and research hotspots of Chinese stomatology research institutes from 2011 to 2020.Methods:The papers of Chinese stomatology research institutions in the Web of Science database were searched and analyzed by bibliometric methods in various dimensions including publication time, institutional and journal distribution, international (regional) cooperation, and research hotspots.Results:The number and quality of publications in Chinese dental research institutions have increased significantly in the past decade, and the top four institutions in terms of publication number were Sichuan University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, and Air Force Military Medical University. The distribution of the journals to which the articles belong was relatively scattered, and the research hotspots mainly focused on squamous cell carcinoma, periodontitis, bone regeneration, and materials science.Conclusions:The output of SCI papers and the number of high-quality papers in Chinese stomatology research institutions increased year by year during 2011-2020, and the scientific research strength continued to increase.
RESUMO
Mass cytometry is an emerging technology. Metal isotope tags are used to replace fluorescent tags, and are quantified by mass spectrometry. It combined mass spectrometry with flow cytometry, which could simultaneously measure various parameters without compensation and greatly improve the ability to evaluate complex cellular systems and processes. Its characteristics of high throughput, high sensitivity and high stability are especially suitable for the study in immunity, tumor, blood, medicine and genetics, etc.
RESUMO
copper, zinc, iron, and other nine trace elements (TEs) in 30 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were determined from the HCC itself and the surrounding liver parenchyma (SLP) using particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE). The result showed that the level of Zn, Fe, Co, Ca, Mn, Rb, and Cl in HCC significantly differed from that in the SLP (P<0.01), while no notable change has been observed in content of Cu (P=0.9). However, in relation to tumor size, an imbalance Cu distribution was observed. The content of Cu present in small HCC (<35mm in average diameter) was greater than that in SLP (P<0.4), and when HCC progressed to large one (>35mm in average diameter), hepatic Cu was no longer accumulated. Other elements such as Zn and Fe, showed no change in concentration relative to tumor size. The significance of the critical HCC size where a change from accumulation to loss in Cu contents is seen is also discussed.
