Peri-implant keratinized mucosa (PIKM) augmentation refers to surgical procedures aimed at increasing the width of PIKM. Consensus reports emphasize the necessity of maintaining a minimum width of PIKM to ensure long-term peri-implant health. Currently, several surgical techniques have been validated for their effectiveness in increasing PIKM. However, the selection and application of PIKM augmentation methods may present challenges for dental practitioners due to heterogeneity in surgical techniques, variations in clinical scenarios, and anatomical differences. Therefore, clear guidelines and considerations for PIKM augmentation are needed. This expert consensus focuses on the commonly employed surgical techniques for PIKM augmentation and the factors influencing their selection at second-stage surgery. It aims to establish a standardized framework for assessing, planning, and executing PIKM augmentation procedures, with the goal of offering evidence-based guidance to enhance the predictability and success of PIKM augmentation.

Objective To investigate the effect of phlorizin on the apoptosis and oxidative stress of rat cardiomyocytes H9C2 induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)and its possible mechanism.Methods H9C2 cells were cultured in vitro.H/R model was established after pretreatment with different doses(16,32,64 μmol/L)of phlorizin or transfection with anti-miR-125a-5p,anti-miR-NC,miR-125a-5p mimics and negative controls.Proliferation was detected by CCK-8,and apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.The protein expression levels of B lymphoblastoma-2 associated X protein(Bax)and B lymphocytoma-2(Bcl-2)were detected by Western blot assay.The release of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)and the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)were detected by colorimetric method.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of miR-125a-5p.Results Compared with the H/R group,inhibition rate,apoptosis rate,Bax protein expression,LDH content and miR-125a-5p expression were decreased after low,medium and high doses of phlorizin treatment(P＜0.05),and SOD activity,Bcl-2 protein expression were increased(P＜0.05).After inhibiting the expression of miR-125a-5p,the inhibition rate,apoptosis rate,Bax protein expression and LDH content of H9C2 cells induced by H/R were decreased(P＜0.05),and SOD activity,Bcl-2 protein expression were increased(P＜0.05).Overexpression of miR-125a-5p reversed the effect of phloridin on H/R-induced proliferation,apoptosis and oxidative stress of H9C2 cells.Conclusion Phlorizin may reduce H/R-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress in H9C2 cells by decreasing the expression of miR-125a-5p.

The standardized workflow of computer-aided static guided implant surgery includes preoperative exami-nation,data acquisition,guide design,guide fabrication and surgery.Errors may occur at each step,leading to irrevers-ible cumulative effects and thus impacting the accuracy of implant placement.However,clinicians tend to focus on fac-tors causing errors in surgical operations,ignoring the possibility of irreversible errors in nonstandard guided surgery.Based on the clinical practice of domestic experts and research progress at home and abroad,this paper summarizes the sources of errors in guided implant surgery from the perspectives of preoperative inspection,data collection,guide de-signing and manufacturing and describes strategies to resolve errors so as to gain expert consensus.Consensus recom-mendation:1.Preoperative considerations:the appropriate implant guide type should be selected according to the pa-tient's oral condition before surgery,and a retaining screw-assisted support guide should be selected if necessary.2.Da-ta acquisition should be standardized as much as possible,including beam CT and extraoral scanning.CBCT performed with the patient's head fixed and with a small field of view is recommended.For patients with metal prostheses inside the mouth,a registration marker guide should be used,and the ambient temperature and light of the external oral scan-ner should be reasonably controlled.3.Optimization of computer-aided design:it is recommended to select a handle-guided planting system and a closed metal sleeve and to register images by overlapping markers.Properly designing the retaining screws,extending the support structure of the guide plate and increasing the length of the guide section are methods to feasibly reduce the incidence of surgical errors.4.Improving computer-aided production:it is also crucial to set the best printing parameters according to different printing technologies and to choose the most appropriate postpro-cessing procedures.

Objective:To study and verify the molecular mechanism of Duzhong Pills for osteoporosis (OP) by means of network pharmacology and molecular docking.Methods:The main chemical components of Duzhong Pills were mined by TCMSP database and the related targets were predicted. The potential targets of osteoporosis in GeneCards, DisGeNET and OMIM databases were searched and the common targets of both were obtained. The STRING platform was used for protein interaction analysis and PPI network diagram was made. The common targets were imported into the David database for enrichment analysis of GO and KEGG pathways, and molecular docking of the main components and core targets was performed. Eighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control group, model group and Duzhong Pills group according to random number table method, with 6 rats in each group. Ovariectomy was used to make osteoporosis model in model group and Duzhong Pills group. Duzhong Pills group was intragaxed with Duzhong Pills extract of 5 g/kg, and control group and model group were intragaxed with normal saline of the same volume, once a day for 8 weeks. Serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were detected by ELISA, and femur PI3K and Akt were detected by Western blot.Results:34 active components were obtained from Duzhong Pills, corresponding to 243 targets, and 1 059 targets for osteoporosis. The core targets included TNF-α, IL-6, AKT1, TP53, IL-1β and others regulated osteoporosis through PI3K-Akt and TNF pathway. The experimental results indicated that compared with model group, the levels of serum TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in Duzhong Pills group decreased ( P<0.05), and the expressions of PI3K and Akt in femur decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Through β-sitosterol, quercetin, kaempferol and other active components, Duzhong Pills can act on TNF, IL-6, AKT1, TP53, IL-1β and other targets, regulating PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway and other signaling pathways to play a role in the treatment of osteoporosis.

Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a symptom associated with cancer and cancer treatment. The incidence of CRF during radiotherapy is extremely high and severely affects the quality of life and treatment compliance of patients. Although more and more studies on CRF have been carried out, the pathogenesis of CRF caused by radiotherapy is still not well understood, and systemic interventions remain to be improved. In this article, the pathogenesis, influencing factors, and interventions of CRF caused by radiotherapy were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for optimizing treatment options in clinical practice.
