[Influence of the dentin smear layer trait on the bond strength of the self-adhesive resin cements].

Objective: This work aimed to evaluate the influence of smear layer on the bonding effectiveness and durability of the self-adhesive resin cements to dentin.

Methods: A total of 48 fresh caries-free third molars with exposed dentin surface were divided into two groups. The dentin surfaces were treated using a standard grit diamond bur (group A) or further polished using a fine grit diamond bur (group B) and then bonded with either of the two self-adhesive resin cements, namely, Clearfil SA Cement (CSA, Kuraray) and Multilink Speed (MS, Ivoclar Vivadent).

[An exploration on computerized examination system of dental objective structured clinical examination].

Unlabelled: PURPOSE：In view of the present problems of clinical skill examination, in order to evaluate the candidate's clinical ability comprehensively and objectively, we constructed and implemented dental objective structured clinical examination system mainly based on computer. METHODS：This system was a multi-station examination which had 3 parts and 8 sites. The stations were composed of a variety of testing methods, including choice questions, auxiliary examinations, case analysis and basic operation skill.

Role of Rho-mediated ROCK-Semaphorin3A signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease in a mouse model.

Objective: The present study aims to elucidate the role of Rho-mediated ROCK-Semaphorin3A signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) in a mouse model.

Methods: One-hundred twelve eight-week male C57BL/6 mice were selected. The mouse model of PD was constructed by intraperitoneal injection of MPTP.

[Influence of light irradiation mode on microhardness of dual cured resin cements].

Purpose: To investigate the influence of different light irradiation modes on microhardness of dual-curing resin cements.

Methods: The cylindrical specimens (1 mm in thickness and 7.5 mm in diameter) of 5 self-adhesive resin cements (Biscem, Clearfil SA Cement, G-CEM LinkAce, Maxcem Elite and RelyX U100) and 2 universal resin cements(DUOLINK and Nexus 3) were irradiated respectively by a continuous mode (light-curing for 20 s) and a delayed mode (light-curing 5 s + auto-curing 60 s + light-curing 20 s), and then they were placed dry in a light-proof thermostat at 37 degrees centigrade.

[Post-stroke depression treated with acupuncture and moxibustion: an evaluation of therapeutic effect and safety].

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of post-stroke depression (PSD) by regulating the liver and strengthening the root prescription.

Methods: In light of the random controlled trial principle, 123 cases were randomized into an acupuncture-moxibustion group (42 cases), a medication group (40 cases) and an acupuncture + medication group (41 cases). In the acupuncture-moxibustion group, the therapy of regulating the liver and strengthening the root was applied.

[Technological experience of occlusal reconstruction with IPS e.max Press for severely worn dentition].

Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of occlusal reconstruction with IPS e.max Press for patients suffering from severely worn dentition, and to summarize the technological experience.

Methods: IPS e.

[Observation on relations between onset seasons of peripheral facial paralysis and therapeutic courses and effect of acupuncture].

Objective: To observe the influences of seasonal factors on peripheral facial paralysis by acupuncture.

Methods: Four hundred cases of facial paralysis were divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter groups, 100 cases in each group. All these cases were treated by routine puncture.

[Observation on therapeutic effect of acupuncture at Xuanzhong (GB 39) combined with Chinese herbs pyrogenic dressing therapy for treatment of calcaneus spur].

Objective: To compare therapeutic effects of acupuncture at Xuanzhong (GB 39) combined with Chinese herbs pyrogenic dressing therapy and common acupuncture on calcaneus spur.

Methods: A single-blind, randomized and controlled trial was adopted. Sixty-six cases were randomly divided into an observation group (n=34) and a common acupuncture group (n=32).

[Observation on therapeutic effect of acupuncture at "cervical three points" combined with cake-separated moxibustion on cervical hyperosteogeny].

Objective: To compare therapeutic effects of acupuncture at "cervical three points" combined with cake-separated moxibustion and routine acupuncture at Jiaji (EX-B 2) on cervical hyperosteogeny.

Methods: Single blind, randomized and controlled methods were used and 91 cases were divided into an observation group of 46 cases and a control group of 45 cases. The observation group was treated by acupuncture at "cervical three points" combined with cake-separated moxibustion, i.

[Expression of odontogenic and osteogenic genes in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with overexpression of mouse dentin sialophosphoprotein].

Objective: To observe the overexpression of dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) in mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) and the expression of specific gene involved in odontogenic and osteogenic differentiation in transfected cells.

Methods: Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) were cultured and then transfected with DSPP gene by adenovirus-mediated way in vitro. The transfection efficiency of DSPP gene was assessed by the marker gene green fluorescent protein (GFP).
