Objective:To investigate the feasibility of periodontal mechanical therapy for chronic periodontitis and coronary heart disease patients with low dose of aspirin.Methods:Sixty nine chronic periodontitis patients with coronary heart disease were randomly selected as the experimental group (medication group,group A),the control group (withdrawal group,group B) including 20 chronic periodontitis patients with coronary artery disease,stopping the drug for one week and another control group with 50 chronic periodontitis patients (group C).The three groups were examined with pocket probing,and received supragingival scaling,subgingival scaling,and root planning.Local bleeding after operation was observed.In 30 minutes after periodontal mechanical treatment,there was still a need to take some hemostatic measures (containing the oxidized cellulose putting in the periodontal pocket,gauze oppressing,and suturing).Nd:YAG laser was used to stop bleeding 60 minutes after operation.Results:At baseline,there was no significant difference in the three groups,as to the plaque index (PLI),the probing depth (PD),and the attachment loss (AL).The bleeding index (BI)in group A was significantly higher than that in group C (P =0.024),higher than that in group B (P =0.088).The platelet maximum aggregation rate (Aggmax) was detected in some subjects.The average Aggmax value group A was 15.2%,which was much greater than that in group B (60.7%) and group C (62.5 %).The three groups were all safe in the treatment of periodontal therapy.There were five cases of active bleeding in group A,one case in group B and one case in group C in 30 minutes after operation.In 60 minutes after operation,there was one case of bleeding actively in group A.Nd:YAG laser was used to stop bleeding successfully.Conclusion:The chronic periodontitis and coronary heart disease patients with long-term oral administration of low dose of aspirin can be safely treated with periodontal mechanical treatment,and the effect of local hemostasis is positive without stopping the drug.

Objective:
To learn the status and influencing factors of development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide the reference for promoting healthy development of infants.
Methods:
Infants at ages of 0-36 months who underwent physical examination in Child Health Clinic of Xiaoshan District Community Health Service Center were selected in 2022. General data of infants and their mothers were collected through questionnaires, and the development status of infants was screened by Age and Stages Questionnaire (third edition). Factors affecting the development status were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 2 519 infants were investigated, including 1 339 males (53.16%) and 1 180 females (46.84%). There were 608 infants with abnormal development of at least one functional area of communication (CM), gross motor (GM), fine motor (FM), problems solving (CG) and personal-social (PS). The abnormal rate was 24.14%, and the abnormal rates of the above functional areas were 9.77%, 6.59%, 7.98%, 6.39% and 9.33%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (male, OR=1.563, 95%CI: 1.191-2.052), mother's childbearing age (≥35 years, OR=1.411, 95%CI: 1.001-1.988), mother's educational level (lower than junior college, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.116-1.912) were factors affecting abnormal development of CM; preterm birth (OR=2.323, 95%CI: 1.315-4.103) was factors affecting abnormal development of GM; gender (male, OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.225-2.232) was factors affecting abnormal development of FM; gender (male, OR=1.511, 95%CI: 1.086-2.102) and mode of delivery (cesarean section, OR=1.460, 95%CI: 1.060-2.010) were factors affecting abnormal development of CG; gender (male, OR=1.340, 95%CI: 1.019-1.763) and birth weight (low birth weight, OR=1.985, 95%CI: 1.149-3.432) were factors affecting abnormal development of PS.
Conclusions
The rate of abnormal development among infants at ages of 0 to 36 months in Xiaoshan District is 24.14%. Gender, preterm birth, mode of delivery, birth weight, mother's childbearing age and mother's educational level could affect the development status of infants.

Objective To investigate the status of Health-related Quality of Life ( HRQOL) in patients with pulmonary hypertension and analyze its influencing factors. Methods A total of 165 patients with pulmonary hypertension were surveyed by General Information Questionnaire, Chinese version of Minnesota Living with Heart Failure-modified for PH ( MLHF-PH ) , Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ( HADS ) , Social Support Rating Scale ( SSRS ) , Self-efficacy Management of Chronic Disease ( SECD6 ) and Medical Coping Method Questionnaire (MCMQ). Results The score of MLHF-PH was (41. 93 ± 18. 98), and the scores of MLHF-PH in marital status, different occupations, fee resource and disease type were statistically significant (F =6. 692,8. 593, 3. 342, 4. 388, respectively;P <0. 05). The multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the severity of mMRC dyspnea, status of depression, 6 minute walk test distance, New York Heart Association ( NYHA ) functional classification, symptoms and times of hospitalization were introduced into the regression model, which could explain 78. 1% of the total variance. Conclusions The general health related quality of life in pulmonary hypertension patients were at a low level. Doctors and nurses should implement particular measurements according to their conditions to improve their quality of life.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a devastating disease characterized by an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas. P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) plays a crucial role in the initial steps of the adhesive at process to inflammatory sites, blockade of PSGL-1 might confer potent anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we generated two non-human primate derived monoclonal antibodies capable of efficiently targeting human PSGL-1, RH001-6 and RH001-22, which were screened from immunized rhesus macaques. We found that RH001-6, can effectively block the binding of P-selectin to PSGL-1, and abolish the adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells in vitro. In vivo, we verified that RH001-6 relieved inflammatory responses and pancreatic injury in both caerulein and l-arginine induced AP models. We also evaluated the safety profile after RH001-6 treatment in mice, and verified that RH001-6 did not cause any significant pathological damages in vivo. Taken together, we developed a novel non-human primate derived PSGL-1 blocking antibody with high-specificity, named RH001-6, which can interrupt the binding of PSGL-1 and P-selectin and attenuate inflammatory responses during AP. Therefore, RH001-6 is highly potential to be further developed into therapeutics against acute inflammatory diseases, such as AP.
