Objective:
To explore the effect of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) on mandible position in the treatment of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency.
Methods:
In this retrospective study, 20 cases of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency treated with MARPE in our hospital from July 2019 to March 2022 were selected as research objects. CBCT data of three time points before treatment (T0), immediately after expansion (T1) and six months after retention (T2) were collected. The head position was standardized and calibrated by Dolphin software, and then mandible landmarks (left and right Condylion, left and right Gonion, Menton) were positioned. The linear distance changes of each landmark relative to the reference plane of coronal plane, axial plane and sagittal plane were measured, which represented the sagittal, vertical and horizontal displacement of mandible respectively. Repeated measurement ANOVA and LSD multiple comparison were used to evaluate the position change of each landmark.
Results :
The Menton and right Gonion rotated clockwise at T1, and relapsed to the initial position at T2. No lateral displacement of Menton was found.
Conclusion
When MARPE is used to treat skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency, it causes a transient clockwise rotation of the mandiblar. The mandible does not show sagittal, vertical and horizontal position changes in long-term evaluation.

Objective:To explore the lung protective effect of nebulized inhalation of lidocaine (NL) on elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 elderly patients who underwent hip fracture surgery at the Huizhou Sixth People′s Hospital from September 2020 to December 2021. They were randomly divided into an NL group and a control group with 40 patients in each group. Within 30 minutes before the start of anesthesia, the NL group was given 2% lidocaine 10 ml oxygen driven nebulization inhalation, while the control group was given equal volume sterile injection water nebulization inhalation. All patients underwent general anesthesia with laryngeal mask intubation and iliac fascia space block. A randomized, double-blind, and controlled clinical study was conducted. The average values of intraoperative peak airway pressure (P peak), plateau airway pressure (P plat), and lung dynamic compliance (C dyn) were compared between two groups of patients; We compared the changes in arterial partial pressure of CO 2 (PaCO 2), alveolar arterial oxygen differential pressure (A-aDO 2), respiratory index (RI), and oxygen index (OI) between the two groups of patients and before and after surgery; The clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) and lung ultrasound score (LUS) were also compared between two groups of patients on the first day before surgery, the second day after surgery, and the seventh day after surgery. Resultsl:There was no statistically significant difference in the average values of P peak, P plat, and C dyn between the two groups during surgery (all P>0.05). After surgery, A-aDO 2 and RI in both groups increased compared to before surgery, while OI decreased compared to before surgery (all P<0.05); After surgery, A-aDO 2 and RI in the NL group decreased compared to the control group, while OI increased compared to the control group (all P<0.05); There was no statistically significant difference in PaCO 2 between the two groups before and after skin incision (all P>0.05). Compared with the 1st day before surgery, the CPIS and LUS in both groups were significantly increased on the 2nd and 7th day after surgery (all P<0.05); Compared with the second day after surgery, the CPIS and LUS of both groups of patients were significantly reduced on the seventh day after surgery (all P<0.05); On the second day after surgery, the CPIS and LUS in the NL group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05); On the 7th day after surgery, the LUS of the NL group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.05); There was no statistically significant difference in CPIS scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Nebulized inhalation of lidocaine can reduce lung function damage in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, and has a certain lung protective effect.

Objective To analyze the status and influencing factors of job satisfaction of nurses at public hospitals, providing references for the teambuilding strategy of nurses. Methods Questionnaire survey method was used, in October 2017, to study job satisfaction of 1,047 nurses at 13 public general hospitals, for a countermeasure study. Results Job satisfaction of the nurses was found at a medium level. Specifically, their overall job satisfaction score was 3. 68, and the satisfaction scores of the following dimensions from high to low were: on-the-job training (3. 91), hierarchical nurse use (3. 79), performance appraisal (3. 68), promotion evaluation (3. 67), and remuneration (3. 62) respectively. Contents of the five dimensions are strongly related to the overall job satisfaction (r>0. 6). Job satisfaction scores of nurses with their differences in positions, annual income, and hospital level were significantly different (P< 0. 05). The three main influencing factors for talent turnover rate are remuneration, workplace pressure and work environment. Conclusions Higher remuneration, improved hierarchical management system, and greater attention to nursing care at secondary hospitals are very important for effectively improving the job satisfaction of nurses and ensuring the health care industry.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) for in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study, and the clinical data of ATAAD patients admitted to Wuhan Union Hospital from January 1, 1999 to December 31, 2018 were collected for analysis. All the patients were confirmed by computed tomography angiography or magnetic resonance imaging of the aorta and the onset time was less than 14 days. Patients who survived at discharge were followed up to obtain 1-year survival information. The ACCI score was calculated for patients based on their comorbidities and age at admission, and they were divided into three groups of 0, 1 and ≥2 according to the ACCI score. The in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality of the three groups were compared. Logistic regression analysis was applied to determine the independent predictors for in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality.Results:Among 1 133 ATAAD patients, 383, 357 and 393 patients had ACCI score of 0, 1, and ≥2, respectively. The in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality of patients with ACCI score ≥2 were significantly higher than those of patients with ACCI score of 0 (25.4% vs. 17.0%, 30.0% vs. 19.6%, both P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that ACCI score ≥2 was an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality ( OR=1.670, 95% CI: 1.176-2.370, P=0.004) and 1-year mortality ( OR=1.762, 95% CI: 1.264-2.456, P<0.001). Age (per 10-year increase) and cerebrovascular diseases were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality, while diabetes mellitus was a protective factor for in-hospital mortality. Conclusions:ACCI can predict the in-hospital mortality and 1-year mortality of ATAAD patients, and patients with ACCI score ≥2 have a poorer prognosis.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem that causes major illnesses and disabilities worldwide. Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that the prevalence of AR has increased progressively over the last few decades in more developed countries and currently affects up to 40% of the population worldwide. Likewise, a rising trend of AR has also been observed over the last 2–3 decades in developing countries including China, with the prevalence of AR varying widely in these countries. A survey of self-reported AR over a 6-year period in the general Chinese adult population reported that the standardized prevalence of adult AR increased from 11.1% in 2005 to 17.6% in 2011. An increasing number of original articles and imporclinical trials on the epidemiology, pathophysiologic mechanisms, diagnosis, management and comorbidities of AR in Chinese subjects have been published in international peer-reviewed journals over the past 2 decades, and substantially added to our understanding of this disease as a global problem. Although guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in Chinese subjects have also been published, they have not been translated into English and therefore not generally accessible for reference to non-Chinese speaking international medical communities. Moreover, methods for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in China have not been standardized entirely and some patients are still treated according to regional preferences. Thus, the present guidelines have been developed by the Chinese Society of Allergy to be accessible to both national and international medical communities involved in the management of AR patients. These guidelines have been prepared in line with existing international guidelines to provide evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of AR in China.

Uncontrolled and persistent inflammation is closely related to numerous acute and chronic diseases. However, effective targeting delivery systems remain to be developed for precision therapy of inflammatory diseases. Herein we report a novel strategy for engineering inflammation-accumulation nanoparticles via phenolic functionalization. Different phenol-functionalized nanoparticles were first developed, which can undergo in situ aggregation upon triggering by the inflammatory/oxidative microenvironment. Phenolic compound-decorated poly (lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles, in particular tyramine (Tyr)-coated nanoparticles, showed significantly enhanced accumulation at inflammatory sites in mouse models of colitis, acute liver injury, and acute lung injury, mainly resulting from in situ cross-linking and tissue anchoring of nanoparticles triggered by local myeloperoxidase and reactive oxygen species. By combining a cyclodextrin-derived bioactive material with Tyr decoration, a multifunctional nanotherapy (TTN) was further developed, which displayed enhanced cellular uptake, anti-inflammatory activities, and inflammatory tissue accumulation, thereby affording amplified therapeutic effects in mice with colitis or acute liver injury. Moreover, TTN can serve as a bioactive and inflammation-targeting nanoplatform for site-specifically delivering a therapeutic peptide to the inflamed colon post oral administration, leading to considerably potentiated in vivo efficacies. Preliminary studies also revealed good safety of orally delivered TTN. Consequently, Tyr-based functionalization is promising for inflammation targeting amplification and therapeutic potentiation of nanotherapies.
