简介:摘要目的探讨无托槽隐形矫治器联合微种植钉内收上前牙时,先远移尖牙与整体内收两种方式内收时上颌前后牙生物力学效应。方法采集患者上颌骨及上牙列的CBCT数据信息,使用Mimics、Geomagic Studio、HyperMesh等软件,采用逆向工程方法建立拔除上颌第一前磨牙使用无托槽隐形矫治器联合微种植钉整体内收上前牙的三维有限元模型,分析:①矫治器加力远移尖牙;②矫治器加力+矫治器牵引钩处150 g牵引力远移尖牙;③矫治器加力+尖牙舌钮处150 g牵引力远移尖牙;④矫治器加力整体内收上前牙;⑤矫治器加力+矫治器牵引钩处150 g牵引力整体内收上前牙;⑥矫治器加力+尖牙舌钮处150 g牵引力整体内收上前牙,六种工况下前后牙的牙周膜等效应力和初始位移。结果只远移尖牙时,尖牙所受牙周膜等效应力最大,分别为5.23E-02 MPa、5.65E-02 MPa、5.87E-02 MPa;上中切牙的唇侧位移量分别为-5.08E-03 mm、-9.67E-04 mm、-1.68E-03 mm,第一磨牙牙冠近移量分别为-1.53E-02 mm、-1.40E-02 mm、-1.51E-02 mm。整体内收上前牙时,中切牙所受牙周膜等效应力最大,分别为4.69E-02 MPa、6.26E-02 MPa、4.84E-02 MPa;中切牙的冠根位移差分别为1.44E-01 mm、1.35E-01 mm、1.29E-01 mm,第一磨牙牙冠近移量分别为-2.93E-02 mm、-2.61E-02 mm、-2.33E-02 mm。结论只远移尖牙时,切牙会为尖牙的远移提供支抗,在矫治器上牵引能够更有利于前后牙支抗的保护;整体内收上前牙时,在尖牙上牵引更有利于后牙支抗的保护和切牙的整体移动。
简介:摘要目的在三维有限元模型中,探讨舌侧矫治器预置不同转矩角度弓丝对上前牙牙周膜应力分布的影响。方法建立整体舌侧矫治三维有限元模型,模拟滑动法关闭拔牙间隙:弓丝预置0°、9°、13°、17°正转矩,分别在腭侧加力1.50 N以及颊侧加力1.00 N+腭侧加力0.50 N条件下关闭间隙,分析上前牙牙周膜范·米塞斯(von Mises)应力分布情况。结果①弓丝预置9°、13°、17°正转矩时,随着预置正转矩角度加大,侧切牙、切牙牙周膜所受应力增大,并且牙周膜应力集中区位于牙颈部;尖牙未出现明显的应力集中区;②腭侧加力1.50N关闭间隙情况下,预置0°转矩时,牙周应力在尖牙牙颈部及根中,中切牙及侧切牙未见明显分布。随预置转矩角度增大时,牙周膜应力集中区从尖牙牙根颈部牙周膜扩展到牙根中部牙周膜;侧切牙、中切牙牙周膜所受应力也随预置正转矩角度增大逐渐增大,但始终集中在牙周膜颈部区域;③颊侧加力1.00 N+腭侧加力0.50 N关闭间隙情况下,预置0°转矩时,上前牙牙周膜应力集中区分布在侧切牙及尖牙牙颈部。随预置正转矩角度增大,牙周膜应力集中区开始分布在侧切牙颊侧远中牙颈部,随后中切牙腭侧颈部偏近中区域及尖牙颈部近中牙周膜出现应力集中区。结论在个体化舌侧矫治器滑动法关闭间隙过程中,预置转矩弓丝对上前牙牙周膜应力分布有不同的影响;随着预置正转矩的增大,上前牙牙周膜所受应力水平及应力集中区域也随之扩大。颊腭侧同时加力关闭间隙,比单纯腭侧加力关闭间隙时上前牙牙周膜应力集中区域分布更加均匀,同时应力水平更小。
简介:AbstractThe pathophysiology of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is complex, and its understanding has evolved along with the evolution and revolution of fetal diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. Over the last few decades, several therapeutic interventions have been researched for improving the outcomes in TTTS. We present a summary of the current protocols for surveillance, diagnosis, and staging of TTTS in monochorionic pregnancies. We also describe in detail the technique for treatment of TTTS by endoscopic laser photocoagulation.
简介:AbstractThe rate of twin pregnancies has increased over the last decades, largely because of the ongoing development of assisted reproductive technology and increased maternal age at childbearing. Twins have a higher risk of adverse outcomes during pregnancy and the perinatal period. The prevalence of umbilical cord abnormalities is higher for twin pregnancies compared with singleton pregnancies. Some of these abnormalities are nonspecific to twinning and can also be found in singleton gestations (such as velamentous cord insertion, vasa previa, and single umbilical artery). Other abnormalities are associated with monochorionic twins, such as umbilical cord entanglement, and umbilical proximate cord insertion. Most of these abnormalities can be detected by ultrasound evaluation. The early and accurate ultrasound diagnosis of chorionicity, amnionicity, and placental and umbilical cord characteristics is crucial if we are to predict the risk of complications and to determine the best management for twin pregnancies. Histopathological examination of the placenta and umbilical cord after delivery can help to confirm prenatal diagnosis and to provide a better understanding of the physiopathology of their abnormalities. The aim of this review was to emphasize the role that the umbilical cord plays in twin complications and to describe the management of these high-risk pregnancies.
简介:AbstractMode of delivery in twin gestation has been a matter of debate for decades. In 2013, the only randomized controlled trial concerning mode of delivery in twin gestations was published, answering some of the most pressing questions in this matter. The Twin Birth Study randomized patients carrying dichorionic-diamniotic or monochorionic-diamniotic twins, with the first twin in cephalic presentation, between 32 and 39 weeks of gestation, to planned vaginal vs. planned cesarean delivery, and found no significant differences in perinatal or maternal outcomes. These clinical findings greatly benefit our clinical practice, but there lacks related study investigating how the practices have changed. In this review, we searched PubMed from 1980 through January 2021 using combinations of the following terms: twin, delivery, vaginal delivery, and cesarean section. We will try to address the known literature before and after the publication of the Twin Birth Study in western countries and compare that to what has been practiced in China.
简介:AbstractTwin reversed arterial perfusion sequence, a severe and unique complication of monochorionic multiple pregnancy, is characterized by vascular anastomosis and abnormal or absent cardiac development in the twins. This article reviewed its pathogenesis, prenatal ultrasound diagnosis, and management. The pump twin’s chances for survival can be maximized by proper management. The optimal timing of the interventions remains a debate, although the latest studies encourage early intervention, i.e., in the first trimester. The most preferred approach is to interrupt the vascular supply to the acardius, such as through ultrasound-guided laser coagulation and radiofrequency ablation of the intrafetal vessels.
简介:AbstractObjective:To review the literature on long-term neurodevelopmental outcome after fetoscopic laser surgery for twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS).Methods:A literature search in PubMed, Embase, Emcare, Web of Science, Cochrane library, and Academic Search Premier was performed. Inclusion criteria were studies between 2009 and 2019 in TTTS-survivors treated with fetoscopic laser surgery and followed-up after the neonatal period with cognitive developmental tests and neurologic exams. Exclusion criteria were non-English articles and reviews, case reports, letters, and guidelines.Results:Nineteen articles were included. Long-term severe neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) was reported by seven and ranged from 4.0% to 18.0% with a mean of 9.7% (95% confidence interval (CI): 7.8-11.5). The prevalence of cerebral palsy ranged from 1.6% to 18.2%, with a mean of 5.1% (95% CI: 4.1-6.2). The mean prevalence of minor impairment was 13.7% (95% CI: 11.4-16.0). However, only 78.9% (15/19) studies used a validated neurodevelopmental test. As studies lack uniform definitions of primary outcome, timing of follow-up, inclusion criteria, and methods, adequate comparison is hampered.Conclusion:The prevalence of severe NDI and cerebral palsy after fetoscopic laser surgery for TTTS in the last decade remains stable around 9.7% and 5.1%, respectively. International agreements on primary outcomes, methods, and follow-up are necessary to improve the knowledge of NDI in TTTS-survivors.
简介:AbstractTwin anemia polycythemia sequence (TAPS) is a chronic form of unbalanced feto-fetal transfusion through minuscule placental anastomoses in monochorionic twin pregnancies, leading to anemia in the donor twin and polycythemia in the recipient twin. TAPS can occur spontaneously in up to 5% of monochorionic twins or can arise in 2%-16% of cases after incomplete laser surgery for twin-twin transfusion syndrome. TAPS can develop across the entire second and third trimester. Antenatal diagnosis for TAPS is reached via Doppler measurement of the fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity, showing an increased velocity in the donor, combined with a decreased velocity in the recipient. Treatment options for TAPS include expectant management, preterm delivery, intrauterine blood transfusion with or without a partial exchange transfusion, fetoscopic laser surgery and selective feticide. The best treatment option is unclear and is currently being investigated in an international multicenter randomized trial (the TAPS trial). Spontaneous fetal demise occurs in 5%-11% of TAPS twins, more often in donors (8%-18%) than in recipients (2%-5%). Severe long-term neurodevelopmental impairment is seen in 9% of TAPS twins, with donors having an increased risk for cognitive impairment and hearing problems (15%).
