This case report highlights the importance of the treatment plan for a patient initially treated with four-premolar-extraction camouflage, despite indications for orthognathic surgery.CASE SUMMARY A 23-year-old male sought treatment complaining about his unsatisfactory facial appearance. His maxillary first premolars and mandibular second premolars had been extracted, and a fixed appliance had been used to retract his anterior teeth for two years without improvement. He had a convex profile, a gummy smile, lip incompetence, inadequate maxillary incisor inclination, and almost a class I molar relationship. Cephalometric analysis showed severe skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion(A point-nasion-B point = 11.5°) with a retrognathic mandible(sella-nasion-B point = 75.9°), a protruded maxilla(sella-nasion-A point = 87.4°), and vertical maxillary excess(upper incisor to palatal plane = 33.2 mm). The excessive lingual inclination of the maxillary incisors(upper incisor to nasion-A point line =-5.5°)was due to previous treatment attempts to compensate for the skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion. The patient was successfully retreated with decompensating orthodontic treatment combined with orthognathic surgery. The maxillary incisors were repositioned and proclined in the alveolar bone, the overjet was increased, and a space was created for orthognathic surgery, including maxillary impaction, anterior maxillary back-setting, and bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy to correct his skeletal anteroposterior discrepancy. Gingival display was reduced, and lip competence was restored. In addition, the results remained stable after 2 years. The patient was satisfied with his new profile as well as with the functional malocclusion at the end of treatment.CONCLUSION This case report provides orthodontists a good example of how to treat an adult with severe skeletal class Ⅱ malocclusion with vertical maxillary excess after an unsatisfactory orthodontic camouflage treatment. Orthodontic and orthognathic treatment can significantly correct a patient’s facial appearance.展开更多

The problem on digital signature scheme based on ideal class groups of quadratic fields remained open, because of the difficulty of computing class numbers of quadratic fields. In this paper, according to our researches on quadratic fields, we construct the first digital signature scheme in ideal class groups of quadratic fields, using q as modulus, which denotes the prime divisors of ideal class numbers of quadratic fields. Security of the new signature scheme is based fully on CL-DLP. This paper also investigates realization of the scheme, and proposes the concrete technique. In addition, the technique introduced in the paper can be utilized to realize signature schemes of other kinds.展开更多

These invariants have proved to be a valuable information for determining the Galois group of the second Hilbert p-class field and the p-capitulation type of K. For p=3 and a number field K with elementary p-class group of rank two, all possible IPADs are given in the complete form of several infinite sequences. Iterated IPADs of second order are used to identify the group of the maximal unramified pro-p extension of K.展开更多

Consequently, the hard problem of identifying the p-class tower group G is reduced to an easy computation of low degree arithmetical invariants.展开更多

For all finite 3-groups G of coclass cc(G) = 1, the family ùd(G) is determined explicitly. The results are applied to the Galois groups G =Gal(F3 (∞)/ F) of the Hilbert 3-class towers of all real quadratic fields F = Q(√d) with fundamental discriminants d > 1, 3-class group Cl3(F) □ C3 × C3, and total 3-principalization in each of their four unramified cyclic cubic extensions E/F. A systematic statistical evaluation is given for the complete range 1 d 7, and a few exceptional cases are pointed out for 1 d 8.展开更多

Methods: TNF- α and IL-6 levels in 27 cases of genital herpes were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). HLA class Ⅱ antigen expression on monocytes were detected by an alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase method. Results: Compared with normal controls, levels of TNF- a and IL - 6 secreted by monocytes responding to LPS mitogen in vitro were significantly decreased [(3.13 ± 0.44ng/ml) vs (4.68 ± 0.54ng/ml), P<0.05 and (3.32 ± 1.06ng/ml) vs (6.46 ± 1.94ng/ ml), P<0.05, respectively]. HLA class Ⅱ antigen expression on monocytes in the genital herpes group was also significantly decreased [HLA-DR (67.48% ± 1.51%) vs (81.03% ± 1.32%), P<0.01 and HLA-DQ (29.54% ± 1.15%) vs (37.63% ± 1.79%), P <0.01 respectively]. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the decreased monocyte function may contribute to the pathogenesis of genital herpes. Augmenting or inducing monocyte function may be important in the prevention, treatment, and reduction of genital herpes cases.展开更多

For p=3 and a number field K with elementary p-class group of rank two, all possible IPADs are given in the complete form of several infinite sequences. Iterated IPADs of second order are used to identify the group of the maximal unramified pro-p extension of K.
