[Effects of progressive loading on implants placed into extraction sockets: a preliminary study].

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of progressive loading on implants placed into extraction sockets. METHODS: Bilateral 3rd, 4th and 2nd premolar of 4 beagle dogs were extracted and the implants were immediately inserted at 0, 14 and 21 days. The progressive loading procedure was conducted after 24 hours. The vertical bone loss (VBL) and the bone/biomaterials reactions were detected by X-ray and SEM. RESULTS: The VBL in control groups was larger than that for the experimental groups at 14, 21 and 28 days (P<0.05). Scan electron microscopy detected that the mineralization speed of experimental groups was many times as faster as the control groups. CONCLUSION: Progressive loading of implants placed into extraction sockets can be performed without disturbing the osseointegration process. The potential of new bone formation in the extraction sockets and the physical strains can congenerously promote osseointegration.

[Experimental study of acute intra-operative arterial elongation].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of arterial elongation on the arteries and to set up a new method for vessel repair. METHODS: This study was performed in 24 arteries that underwent different traumatic deficit and acute intra-operative elongation repair. The vessels were harvested and studied by histology, electron microscopy, and immunohistochemistry on day 1, 7 and 28 after operation. RESULTS: The total unobstructed rate was 100% for deficit group as well as control experimental group. The content of collagen and elastin at various intervals showed no significant difference, the ratio of them also had no significant difference. Following anastomosis, the compliance of arteries was decreased, the peak value of proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) positive cell percentage was less than 20%, the internal diameter of elongation and anastomosis edge had no significant difference between deficit group and control group. There were no marked differences in pathological changes between deficit group and control group. CONCLUSION: Acute intraoperative artery elongation after balloon dilatation is a simple, safe, and effective alternative to vein interposition in the repair of traumatic arterial injuries. It appears to be a useful method in the emergency treatment.
