Objective This study aimed to estimate the therapeutic effects of preformed metal crown(PMC)and pre-fabricated zirconia crowns(ZC)on decayed primary morals in children,as well as to analyze the possible influencing fac-tors.Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed on the data of 192 patients(aged 3 to 8)in the Stomatologi-cal Department of Shenzhen Children's Hospital from October 2021 to December 2021.The decayed mandibular first molars were selected and restored by vital-pulp therapy followed by PMC and ZC,including 96 cases(96 caries)in the PMC group and 96 cases(96 caries)in the ZC group.Oral clinical examination was performed at 3 months,1 year,and 2 years after treatment,overwiewing the clinical therapeu-tic effects and periodontal status of PMC and ZC groups,as well as recording the crown integrity,gingival index(GI),probing bleeding index(BI),plaque index(PLI)and various prosthetic indices.Results No significance differences existed in the periodontal status of PMC and ZC groups at 3 months,1 year,and 2 years after treatment(P>0.05).However,the GI,BI,and PLI in the PMC group were higher than those in the ZC group at 3 months,1 year,and 2 years after treatment,and the difference was dramatically signifi-cant(P<0.05).No significances difference existed in various prosthetic indices(P>0.05),as well as in the GI,BI,and PLI,between the two groups(P>0.05).No significant differences existed in various prosthetic indices between genders after PMC restoration(P>0.05).The scores of girls in various prosthetic indices after ZC restoration were higher than those of boys(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis indicated an inverse correlation between age in the PMC group and the GI,BI,PLI,and FDI indices(P<0.01),rather than in the ZC group(P>0.05).Conclusion PMC and ZC can be ap-plied to restore deciduous molar caries.The periodontal status of deciduous teeth in ZC group was superior to that in the PMC group.The periodontal status of deciduous teeth in PMC group may be stable with increased age.

Objective To explore the effect of Clostridium butyricum ( C. butyricum ) and its metabolite butyrate on the function of intestinal mucosal barrier and intestinal flora in acute necrotizing pancreatitis ( ANP) rats with intra-abdominal hypertension ( IAH) . Methods Eighty SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (A group, n=20), ANP with IAH group(B group, n=20), ANP with IAH and C. butyricum treated group ( C group, n=20 ) , ANP with IAH and sodium butyrate treated group ( D group, n=20). Rats of C and D group were given intragastric administration of C. butyricum 1 × 109 CFU once a day or 100 mg/kg sodium butyrate once a day from 10 days before modeling. Sodium taurocholate injection method via pancreatobiliary ducts was used to establish ANP with IAH rat model, and the intra-abdominal pressure was measured by direct puncture of left lower belly 24 h after modeling. Blood samples were collected for detecting serum amylase(AMY), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), diamine oxidase( DAO ) , lipopolysaccharide ( LPS ) and D-Lactate, and the pathological changes of terminal ileum was observed. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the populations of 6 bacteria in ileum mucosa. Results The levels of AMY, TNF-α, LPS,DAO, D-Lactate and ileum mucosa score were obviously higher in B, C and D group than those in A group, but the number of piobiotic flora in ileum mucosa was lower than that in A group, while the number of pathogenic bacteria was higher than that in A group. The levels of LPS, DAO, D-Lactate and ileum mucosa pathological score were lower in C group and D group than those in B group, but the number of piobiotic flora in ileum mucosa was lower than that in B group, while the number of pathogenic bacteria was higher than that in B group. All the differences above were statistically different (P<0.05). Conclusions C. butyricum and butyrate can maintain the function of intestinal mucosal barrier in ANP rats with IAH, and also readjust the imbalance of intestinal flora.

Objective: To analyze the detection rate of sleep problems such as sleep delay and deficiency in preschool children in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China,and to provide the reference for the standard of sleeping mode among preschool students. Methods: From October to November 2017, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 27 200 preschool children in 11 cities in Hubei, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China. Epidemiology of sleep delays, deficiencies and sleep patterns in preschool children was described. Results: The detection rate of sleep problems in preschool children in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River was 15.3%. Taking the length of sleep and bedtime as the main analysis points, it was found that the average sleeping time point of each age group was 21:31, and the detection rate of bedtime delay was 86.5%. The average length of sleep was (10.60±1.12) hours. The detection rate of sleep deprivation in preschool children was 15.7%. Sleep delay was positively correlated with girls, age increase and parents’ higher educational level (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with living in the city, non-only child and bedroom without TV (P<0.01) .The detection rate of sleep deprivation was positively correlated with children of high age group (4yearold group：OR=1.32，95%CI=1.19-1.46；5-year-old group：OR=2.10，95%CI=1.91-2.32；6-year-old group：OR=2.47，95%CI=2.20-2.77)(P<0.01), and negatively correlated with no TV in bedroom (OR=0.91，95%CI=0.84-0.98) and no light in sleep (OR=0.87，95%CI=0.78-0.97)(P<0.05). Conclusion Preschool children sleep delay and sleep deprivation and other sleep problems are more prominent, affected by family environment and other factors.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate and analyze the current situation of dentists in Guangdong pro-vince regarding the management of avulsed incisors, thereby providing a reference for making treatment strategies for avulsed incisors in the future. METHODS: A total of 712 dentists with different educational backgrounds and working conditions in Guangdong province were randomly selected to conduct an online questionnaire survey on the cognition of children with avulsed incisors from April 2022 to May 2022. The data were recorded by Excel software and statistics were analyzed on Stata/SE 15.1. RESULTS: A total of 712 dentists were investigated and 701 questionnaires were collected (98.46%). In addition, 65.9% of investigators came from the Department of Stomatology in a First-class Hospital or Stomatological Hospital. The results showed that the average number of avulsed teeth consulted by dentists was less than 20 per year. Although 99.7% of respondents considered normal saline as a suitable storage medium, 3.1% and 23.8% of them had a misunderstanding that the tap/alcohol could be used for root cleaning. Moreover, 93.4% was the correct selection rate of the treatment plan for processing on root surfaces before replanting by investigators. The correct selection rate of the duration using elastic fixation was only 10.7%. Meanwhile, 42.9% of investigators refused to inoculate tetanus immunoglobulin after teeth replanting. Emergency management of dental avulsion (EM) and clinical management of dental avulsion (CM) answered correctly with average scores of 14.60±11.85 and 14.48±2.67, respectively. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that working years were negatively correlated with EM and CM scores (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between CM and EM scores with the number of avulsion cases treated by physicians each year (P<0.05). In terms of the EM score of dentists' learning attitude, investigators who had received enough knowledge were higher than those who had not and insufficient knowledge reserved, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of investigators who thought they had a certain degree of knowledge about dental trauma were higher than those who thought they "did not understand", and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In terms of CM scores, investigators who thought the knowledge of dental trauma was "very helpful" had higher scores than those who thought it was "not helpful", and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of the investigators who thought they had "relatively sufficient knowledge" of dental trauma were higher than those who thought they had "no knowledge" or "insufficient know-ledge", and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The overall accuracy of the management of avulsed incisors among dentists was low in Guangdong province. Dentists were more likely to have a higher rate of accuracy choice in treatment options for luxation injury and avulsion to enhance the prognosis of replanted teeth.

Objective:To explore the effect of parental rearing patterns and their consistency on the emotional and behavioral problems of preschool children.Methods:From October to November 2017, 27 987 children aged 3 to 6 years old from 109 kindergartens in 11 cities of Hubei, Anhui and Jiangsu Provinces were selected by using the cluster sampling method. A total of 27 200 valid questionnaires which were completed by subjects' parents were collected. The emotional and behavioral problems of preschool children were collected by "strengths and difficulties questionnaire" and the parental rearing patterns were evaluated by the "Parental Behavior Scale". The differences in emotional and behavioral abnormality rates of preschool children with different characteristics were analyzed; with emotional and behavioral problems as dependent variables and parental support/participation and compulsion/hostility as independent variables, the multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the effect of parental rearing patterns and their consistency on the emotional and behavioral problems of preschool children.Results:The age of children was (4.35±0.96) years old, and 51.4% of children were 13 975 males. There were 24 634 (90.6%) urban children and 17 916 (65.9%) only children. Both parents with strong support/participation accounted for 14.9%, and those with poor support/participation accounted for 11.9%; both parents with strong compulsion/hostility accounted for 15.2%, and those with low compulsion/hostility accounted for 11.3%. The rates of emotional symptoms, conduct behavior, hyperactive behavior, peer interaction, total difficulty score, and abnormal prosocial behavior of preschool children were 9.5%, 9.5%, 18.2%, 24.5%, 11.2%, and 10.2%, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that after adjusting for gender, only child, living area, family economic status, mother′s age and education level, father′s education level, and other factors, compared with fathers/mothers with strong support/participation and low compulsion/hostility and parents with strong support/participation and low compulsion/hostility, preschool children who had fathers/mothers with poor support/participation and strong compulsion/hostility or parents with poor support/participation and strong compulsion/hostility were more likely to have emotional symptoms, conduct behavior, hyperactive behavior, peer interaction, total difficulty score, and abnormal prosocial behavior ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Parental rearing patterns and their consistency are related to the emotional and behavioral problems of preschool children.
