简介:AbstractPeriodontitis is one of the most prevalent epidemics affecting human health and life recently, and exploration of the pathogenesis and treatment of periodontitis has been valued by scholars. In recent years, sclerostin, a new factor on bone resorption and reconstruction caused by inflammation and mechanical stimulation, has been a research hotspot. This article summarizes the researches on sclerostin in periodontitis development in recent years. Among them, sclerostin has been shown to be a critical negative regulator of bone formation, thereby inhibiting bone remodeling in periodontitis development, and is closely associated with tooth movement. Besides, evidence indicates that the removal of sclerostin seems to reasonably protect the alveolar bone from resorption. Regulation of sclerostin expression is a novel, promising treatment for periodontitis and addresses several complications seen with traditional therapies; accordingly, many drugs with similar mechanisms have emerged. Moreover, the application prospect of sclerostin in periodontal therapy combined with orthodontic treatment is another promising approach. There are also a lot of drugs that regulate sclerostin. Anti-sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) is the most direct one that inhibits bone resorption caused by sclerostin. At present, drugs that inhibit the expression of sclerostin have been applied to the treatment of diseases such as multiple myeloma and osteoporosis. Therefore, the application of sclerostin in the oral field is just around the corner, which provides a new therapeutic bone regulation strategy in oral and general health.

简介:目的:分析非手术疗法治疗腰椎间盘突出症的近期、远期疗效。方法:将165例腰椎间盘突出症患者按随机和单盲法分为牵引组、推拿组,推拿加功能锻炼组,治疗2个疗程后,评定近期疗效。然后将取得显效的102例患者按区组随机和单盲法分为功能锻炼组和对照组,随访1年观察两组复发率,并分别于治疗后6和12个月进行腰椎功能评定。结果:推拿组和推拿加功能锻炼组较牵引组近期疗效显效率差异有显著性(x^2=8.359,P<0.01)。功能锻炼组1年内的复发率明显低于对照组(x^=12.631,P<0.01)。结论:推拿加功能锻炼是防治腰椎间盘突出症的有效方法。

简介:AbstractThe immune system has the function of immune surveillance to resist the occurrence and development of tumors, and is essential for inhibition of tumor metastasis. Nevertheless, tumor cells can still suppress immune responses through multiple mechanisms to escape recognition and elimination. Photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy involve systemic or local use of sensitizers followed by light or ultrasound treatment of the affected area, leading to tumor cell death by various mechanisms. The capability of the immune system is essentially affected by photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy. To understand the tumor therapeutic mechanisms of photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy and to explore the use of these modalities for improvement of the antitumor immune effect, extensive preclinical and clinical studies have been carried out. Besides direct killing of tumors, photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy also cause inflammatory reactions, achieve antitumor immune responses, and potentially prevent tumor recurrence, thereby treating both primary and metastatic tumors. In this review, we summarize the antitumor immune responses induced by photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy, describe the processes of the antitumor immune responses in detail, and discuss the clinical applications of the resulting antitumor immunity.
