The clinical data of 139 patients with rectal cancer who were admitted to the Chongqing University Three Gorges Hospital from June 2019 to January 2022 were collected. There were 81 males and 58 females, aged (64±15)years. All patients underwent radical proctectomy with totally robotic alimentary tract reconstruction and modified right iliac auxiliary Trocar hole for specimen extraction. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative situations; (2) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and count data were represented as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative situations. All the 139 patients completed radical proctectomy with totally robotic alimentary tract reconstruction and modified right iliac auxiliary Trocar hole for specimen extraction successfully, without conversion to laparotomy, unplanned return to surgery or death. The length of surgical incision was (4.5±1.1)cm, operation time was (157±63)minutes, volume of intraoperative blood loss was (65±22)mL, time to postoperative first out-of-bed activities was (2.36±0.29)days, time to first flatus was (2.27±1.13)days, and time to first liquid diet was (2.90±1.12)days. The pain scores at postoperative day 1, 2, 4 were 2.34±1.07, 1.26±0.36, 0.10±0.06. The hospitalization time was (8.92±2.15)days. Results of postoperative pathological examination: the number of lymph nodes dissected was 18.1±2.3, the distal resection margin distance of tumor was (2.6±0.5)cm, and the proximal resection margin distance of tumor was (13.1±2.6)cm. The mesorectum of all specimens was intact, and the circumferential resection margin was negative. Of 139 patients, 1 case of incision fat liquefaction, 1 case of anastomotic leakage, 1 case of anastomotic bleeding, 1 case of intestinal obstruction after operation were discharged after treatment. There was no complication such as abdominal infection or hemorrhage, chylous leakage, abdominal infection. (2) Follow-up. All the 139 patients were followed up for 1 year after operation. No chronic infection of abdominal incision, incisional hernia, incisional tumor implantation, chronic incision pain, sexual dysfunction, dysuria or fecal incontinence were found during the 1-year follow-up.Conclusion:Totally robotic alimentary tract reconstruction and modified right iliac auxiliary Trocar hole for specimen extraction is safe and feasible in radical proctectomy, which has clinical application value.

According to the pathological characteristics of symptomatic chronic thoracic and lumbar osteoporotic vertebral fracture (SCOVF), the different clinical treatment methods are selected, including vertebral augmentation, anterior-posterior fixation and fusion, posterior decompression fixation and fusion, and posterior correction osteotomy. However, there is still a lack of a unified understanding on how to choose appropriate treatment method for SCOVF. In order to reflect the new treatment concept and the evidence-based medicine progress of SCOVF in a timely manner and standardize its treatment, the clinical guideline for surgical treatment of SCOVF is formulated in compliance with the principle of scientificity, practicability and advancement and based on the level of evidence-based medicine.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Objectives: To establish a geographic information application system for analyzing the spatial and temporal distribution of major infectious diseases in various regions of the world and to assess the risk of importation of those diseases, to China. Methods: We collected and integrated the following information on: 1) outbreaks and areas of epidemics of major infectious diseases in the world from 2000 to 2017, 2) cases of infectious diseases in arriving travelers through active surveillance at international entry-exit ports in mainland China from 2014 to 2016, 3) numbers of annual global international flights and travelers in the country. With the above information, a global space-time distribution database on major infectious diseases was then established, using the technology related to the system. Models regarding technologies on time-space analysis, probabilistic risk assessment and geographic information visualization, were applied to establish a geographic information system on risk assessment of infectious diseases that imported to China. Results: Through integration of information on outbreaks and epidemic areas of 60 major infectious diseases in 220 countries and regions around the world, as well as 42 kinds of infectious diseases identified among the international arrivals in mainland China, a system was then developed. Information on the distribution of major infectious diseases and their potential risks in the worldwide various regions, characteristics of spectrum and disease burden of infectious diseases imported to each province of mainland China were displayed. Thus, risks on importing infectious diseases in each province via air way were able to be evaluated and simulated by the probabilistic risk assessment model, under the information on specific kind of infectious disease, outside China. Conclusion Geographic Information System on Risk Assessment Regarding Infectious Diseases Imported to China provides basic data for epidemiological reconnaissance and assessment on risks of importing infectious diseases outside China, thus would be helpful for the improvement of strategies on surveillance, prevention and control regarding the importing infectious diseases, in China.

Dental Caries is a kind of chronic oral disease that greatly threaten human being's health. Though dentists and researchers struggled for decades to combat this oral disease, the incidence and prevalence of dental caries remain quite high. Therefore, improving the disease management is a key issue for the whole population and life cycle management of dental caries. So clinical difficulty assessment system of caries prevention and management is established based on dental caries diagnosis and classification. Dentists should perform oral examination and establish dental records at each visit. When treatment plan is made on the base of caries risk assessment and carious lesion activity, we need to work out patient‑centered and personalized treatment planning to regain oral microecological balance, to control caries progression and to restore the structure and function of the carious teeth. And the follow-up visits are made based on personalized caries management. This expert consensus mainly discusses caries risk assessment, caries treatment difficulty assessment and dental caries treatment plan, which are the most important parts of caries management in the whole life cycle.

The dental operative microscope has been widely employed in the field of dentistry, particularly in endodontics and operative dentistry, resulting in significant advancements in the effectiveness of root canal therapy, endodontic surgery, and dental restoration. However, the improper use of this microscope continues to be common in clinical settings, primarily due to operators' insufficient understanding and proficiency in both the features and established operating procedures of this equipment. In October 2019, Professor Jingping Liang, Vice Chairman of the Society of Cariology and Endodontology, Chinese Stomatological Association, organized a consensus meeting with Chinese experts in endodontics and operative dentistry. The objective of this meeting was to establish a standard operation procedure for the dental operative microscope. Subsequently, a consensus was reached and officially issued. Over the span of about four years, the content of this consensus has been further developed and improved through practical experience.
