Background: Colorectal neoplasia differentially expressed (CRNDE), a 1910-nt lncRNA encoded on human chromosome 16, has been found to be involved in various cancers. Nevertheless, the clinical and diagnostic values of CRNDE in tumors still need to be explored. In this review, we aimed to elucidate the clinical role of CRNDE in cancer by searching all correlative literature, and we sequentially explored the association between CRNDE levels and overall survival (OS) or clinicopathological characteristics of cancer.

Objective: To explore the influence of the type of occlusal splint on the masticatory muscles (TA,MM).
Methods: TA and MM EMG during ICP maximal clenching were recorded in 20 dentate normal subjects, when they weared no occlusal splint, relaxation splint and mandibular stabilization splint.
Result: With the insertion of relaxation splint and mandibular stabilization splint, the EMG parameters of TA and MM during ICP maximal clenching was dramatically reduced (P<0.
