The Influence of Obturators on the Respiration of Patients with Maxillary Defects: A Clinical Study

The study evaluated the effects of obturators on respiratory function by analyzing the changes in nasal anatomic structures and physiologic function in maxillectomy patients with and without obturators. Twenty-six patients who underwent maxillectomy were chosen and rehabilitated with obturators by a single maxillofacial prosthodontist. The geometric shape of the nasal cavity, the nasal airway resistance, and the ratio of residual volume to total lung capacity (RV/TLC) were evaluated using acoustic rhinometry, rhinomanometry, and a pulmonary function test apparatus, respectively. All patients were tested twice, with and without their obturators. The results were statistically analyzed with a paired t-test. The nasal cavities (0–7 cm to the anterior nostril) of the patients with obturators had a significantly smaller volume ([-8.92, -0.60], P = 0.027), smaller effective nasal cross-sectional area MCA2 ([-3.80, -1,81], P<0.0001), increased airflow in the nasal cavity ([17.76, 147.39], P = 0.015), reduced nasal airway resistance ([-0.11, -0.02], P = 0.009), and reduced RV/TLC ([-5.32, -1.30], P = 0.004) compared with the patients without obturators. According to the results of this study, obturators can improve respiratory function by effectively decreasing the volume of enlarged nasal cavities as well as the nasal air resistance and volume of anatomical dead space after maxillectomy.

Submucous cleft palate and the general practitioner

Submucous cleft palate refers to a situation where the soft palate is largely composed of mucosa with little or no muscle. The defect is often not obvious on inspection of the mouth and pharynx. There is considerable clinical variation, with speech ranging from normal or minimal nasality to severe nasality and defective articulation. Many patients who have latent submucous cleft palate have the condition unmasked by an adenoidectomy because the adenoid pad had served as a compensatory factor in effecting palatopharyngeal closure. All physicians who perform tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy should be aware of the signs and symptoms which may suggest the diagnosis.     

Cleft palate repair at 3 to 7 months of age

We report the speech outcome in 90 children with complete unilateral cleft lip and palate who underwent soft palate repair either between 3 and 7 months of age (n = 40) or later than 7 months of age (n = 50). In all patients, palatoplasty was performed by one of two experienced surgeons using a modification of the Furlow technique, and speech evaluations were conducted using the Pittsburgh Weighted Values for Speech Symptoms Associated with Velopharyngeal Incompetence by two speech pathologists with high inter-rater reliability. There were no differences between the groups with respect to resonance, nasal air emission, and articulation. Velopharyngeal function, as measured by the total speech score, was similar between the two groups of patients, as were the rates of secondary pharyngoplasty. These results suggest that very early closure of the soft palate may not offer significant benefit over repair later in infancy with respect to speech outcome.     

植物气孔对大气CO2浓度和温度升高的反应——基于在CO2浓度和温度梯度中生长的10种植物的观测

许多研究表明 ,大气 CO2 浓度 ([CO2 ])的升高会导致植物气孔密度 (Stom atal Density,SD)和气孔指数 (Stom atal Index,SI)降低。这一关系成为推测地质历史时期大气 [CO2 ]变化的重要古生物指标之一。但是 ,[CO2 ]不是唯一影响 SD和 SI的环境因素。研究利用温度梯度和温度 [CO2 ]梯度技术 ,以 7种美国中西部地区弃耕地常见草本植物和 3种美国东部落叶阔叶林优势木本植物为材料 ,其中草本包含豆科、非豆科 C3和 C4 功能型 ,就它们的 SD,SI,表皮细胞密度 (Epidermal Cell Density,ECD)和气孔孔径长度 (Stomatal Aperture L ength,APL)对 [CO2 ]和温度升高的反应进行了研究。结果表明 ,沿 [CO2 ]梯度 ,所研究物种的 SD比 SI反应敏感 ,SD显示出与 [CO2 ]正相关、负相关和无显著相关性 ,SI显示出与 [CO2 ]正相关和无显著相关性 ;沿温度梯度 ,所研究物种的 SI比 SD反应敏感 ,SI显示出与温度正相关、负相关和无显著相关性 ,SD显示出与温度正相关和无显著相关性。 ECD和 APL对 [CO2 ]和温度梯度也有不同的响应。这说明 ,除 [CO2 ]外 ,温度也对 SD,SI,ECD和 APL有显著的影响。所以在用气孔特征重建地质历史时期 [CO2 ]的变化趋势时 ,除准确建立气孔参数与 [CO2 ]关系外 ,还应考虑大气温度对这一关系的影响     

Pattern of simulated snoring is different through mouth and nose

Cineradiography of the pharynx during simulated snoring was done in 6 healthy volunteers, and supraglottic pressure and flow rate were recorded in 12 others. We observed, immediately before snoring, a decrease in the sagittal diameter of the oropharynx followed, during snoring, by high-frequency oscillations of soft palate and pharyngeal walls. The pattern of soft palate oscillations was different while snoring through the nose or mouth. During inspiratory snoring through the nose, the soft palate remained in close contact with the back of the tongue and only the uvula presented high-frequency oscillations. Snoring through the mouth resulted in ample high-frequency oscillations of the whole soft palate. Frequency of airflow and supraglottic pressure oscillations was less (P less than 0.05) during mouth (28.2 +/- 7.5 Hz) than during nasal snoring (77.8 +/- 36.7 Hz). This difference may be related to the smaller oscillating mass (i.e., uvula) during nasal snoring. At variance with our previous data, which showed that snoring during sleep, in both heavy (nonapneic) snorers and obstructive sleep apnea patients, was systematically preceded by flow limitation, this was not true during simulated snoring.     

Isolation and Characterization of Satellite Cells from Rat Head Branchiomeric Muscles

Fibrosis and defective muscle regeneration can hamper the functional recovery of the soft palate muscles after cleft palate repair. This causes persistent problems in speech, swallowing, and sucking. In vitro culture systems that allow the study of satellite cells (myogenic stem cells) from head muscles are crucial to develop new therapies based on tissue engineering to promote muscle regeneration after surgery. These systems will offer new perspectives for the treatment of cleft palate patients. A protocol for the isolation, culture and differentiation of satellite cells from head muscles is presented. The isolation is based on enzymatic digestion and trituration to release the satellite cells. In addition, this protocol comprises an innovative method using extracellular matrix gel coatings of millimeter size, which requires only low numbers of satellite cells for differentiation assays.     

Velopharyngeal variations in relatives of cleft-affected individuals

Eighteen families each with two or more cleft lip and palate patients were studied by speech cephalometry for evidence of velopharyngeal inadequacy (VPI). With this total of 56 persons, three groups were recognized: 1) patients with cleft lip only (N = 7), 2) unaffected sibs of CL(P) probands and the unaffected parents with the positive clefting history on their side of the family (N = 33), and 3) unaffected parents with negative CL(P) history to their side of the family (N = 16). The latter served as controls. The velopharyngeal mechanism in function was evaluated by voicing the fricative/S/. The results showed no significant differences in the length of either the resting soft palate or pharyngeal depth among the three groups. Even though a significant (P less than 0.01) increase in soft palate length while voicing /S/ was found in group 2 relatives compared to group 3 controls, the failure to find differences in either resting palate length or pharyngeal depth coupled with a failure to demonstrate VPI in group 2 subjects by speech testing leaves the value of this observation uncertain.     

A Rat Model for Muscle Regeneration in the Soft Palate

Background

Children with a cleft in the soft palate have difficulties with speech, swallowing, and sucking. Despite successful surgical repositioning of the muscles, optimal function is often not achieved. Scar formation and defective regeneration may hamper the functional recovery of the muscles after cleft palate repair. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the anatomy and histology of the soft palate in rats, and to establish an in vivo model for muscle regeneration after surgical injury.

Methods

Fourteen adult male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups. Groups 1 (n = 4) and 2 (n = 2) were used to investigate the anatomy and histology of the soft palate, respectively. Group 3 (n = 6) was used for surgical wounding of the soft palate, and group 4 (n = 2) was used as unwounded control group. The wounds (1 mm) were evaluated by (immuno)histochemistry (AZAN staining, Pax7, MyoD, MyoG, MyHC, and ASMA) after 7 days.

Results

The present study shows that the anatomy and histology of the soft palate muscles of the rat is largely comparable with that in humans. All wounds showed clinical evidence of healing after 7 days. AZAN staining demonstrated extensive collagen deposition in the wound area, and initial regeneration of muscle fibers and salivary glands. Proliferating and differentiating satellite cells were identified in the wound area by antibody staining.

Conclusions

This model is the first, suitable for studying muscle regeneration in the rat soft palate, and allows the development of novel adjuvant strategies to promote muscle regeneration after cleft palate surgery.     

Snoring source identification and snoring noise prediction

This paper investigates the snoring mechanism of humans by applying the concept of structural intensity to a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of a human head, which includes: the upper part of the head, neck, soft palate, hard palate, tongue, nasal cavity and the surrounding walls of the pharynx. Results show that for 20, 40 and 60Hz pressure loads, tissue vibration is mainly in the areas of the soft palate, the tongue and the nasal cavity. For predicting the snoring noise level, a 3D boundary element cavity model of the upper airway in the nasal cavity is generated. The snoring noise level is predicted for a prescribed airflow loading, and its range agrees with published measurements. These models may be further developed to study the various snoring mechanisms for different groups of patients.     

Immobilization of Coleus blumei plant cells in temperature-sensitive hydrogel

Plant cell culture of Coleus blumei when entrapped in temperature-sensitive hydrogel beads [poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) containing 0.5% alginate], retained viability during the three weeks culture. Test also indicated that the hydrogel beads (containing 0.5% alginate) with immobilized cells were still temperature sensitive in aqueous solution.
