Objective To study the expression of BCL10 and associated chromosomal aberration in primary cutaneous marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (PCMZL). Methods Tissue specimens were collected from 17 patients with PCMZL. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of BCL10. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed to examine the presence of API2-MALT1 fusion gene and chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 as well as IgH genes in these cases. Results Of these patients,94.1% (16/17) expressed BCL10 protein. The cytoplasmic expression of BCL10 was observed in 64.7% (11/17) of the patients, and nuclear expression in 29.4% (5/17). As shown by FISH test, neither API2-MALT1 fusion gene nor chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 or IgH genes was present in these patients. Conclusions Compared with MALT lymphomas originating from tissues other than skin, PCMZL is uncommonly associated with chromosomal abnormalities; it is possible that there are unknown factors contributing to its tumorigenesis. Nuclear BCL10 is unrelated to the presence of chromosomal aberration in BCL10, MALT1 or IgH genes. Further follow-up is required to clarify the association between nucle ar BCL10 and poor prognosis of PCMZL.
2.Evaluation of precision rehabilitation services for people with disabilities in China
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2022;28(10):1117-1125
ObjectiveTo evaluate the implementation of the precision rehabilitation services for people with disabilities in China. MethodsData from the Second China National Sample Survey on Disability, 2017-2021 China Statistical Yearbook on the Work for Persons with Disabilities and other official statistics were used to evaluate the precision rehabilitation services for people with disabilities in China from four aspects: the construction of organizational system, the arrangement of rehabilitation management system, the progress of rehabilitation service capacity and the utilization of rehabilitation services. ResultsA top-down precision rehabilitation organization system was basically established; a rehabilitation management system was used throughout the country, while the operation specification and data quality needed to be optimized; the capacity of rehabilitation services was steadily improved to meet the diverse rehabilitation needs of people with disabilities; and more and more disabled children and disabled persons with certificates received basic rehabilitation services, and the accuracy of rehabilitation services was constantly improved. ConclusionThe precision rehabilitation services for people with disabilities in China is working well in the early stage. It is needed to expand resources and improve the ability of rehabilitation services, to strengthen the economic guarantee and summarize typical cases, to improve public awareness of rehabilitation. The government should improve the sense of responsibility and working mechanism, to promote the coordinated development of rehabilitation services among regions, and develop community-based rehabilitation vigorously.

To observe three-dimensional changes of dentigerous cyst-associated maxillary canines (DCAMC) in adolescents after marsupialization by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Methods: A total of 34 DCAMC patients with dentigerous cyst aged 10-14 were divided into central type and lateral type, while canines on the non-cyst side served as a control. A three-dimensional reference frame was set up to analyze the position, angle changes and influential factors for DCAMC by using CBCT before operation and in 3-6 month after operation.
Results: 1) Compared with pre-operation, there was significant vertical movement in DCAMC after marsupialization. Tip of tooth moved labially while tooth axis inclined mesiodistally; 2) Horizontal, vertical movement and mesiodistal inclination of DCAMC were significantly greater than those in the health side; 3) Compared with the lateral type DCAMC, the central type DCAMC showed a significant changes in labial inclination; 4) Horizontal movement, mesiodistal and labial inclination of lateral type DCAMC were all evidently greater than those of the central type DCAMC; 5) Vertical movement and inclination of DCAMC after marsupialization were significantly correlated to the time interval (r=0.354, 0.374, both P<0.05), while vertical movement of cuspid in health side was significantly negative correlated with the patients' age and the level of root formation (r=-0.506, -0.721, both P<0.01).
Conclusion: DCAMC in adolescents can obtain obvious changes in position and angles after marsupialization regardless of the level of root formation, which is beneficial for further orthodontic treatment.
