Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Simiaowan on the intestinal ATP-binding cassette superfamily G （White） member 2 （ABCG2） expression and the intestinal uric acid excretion in hyperuricemia rats. MethodA total of 48 SD male rats were randomized into the normal， model， benzbromarone （4.7 mg·kg^-1）， and high-， medium-， low-dose Simiaowan groups （2 260.6， 1 130.3， 565.2 mg·kg^-1， respectively）， with 8 rats in each group. Potassium oxonate and hypoxanthine was employed to induce hyperuricemia in rats （21 days）. On the 8^th day， administration began （once a day for 14 days）. Rats were killed on the 21^st day， and serum uric acid， serum creatinine， blood urea nitrogen， and intestinal uric acid were detected. The protein expression of ABCG2 in the small intestine was detected by Western blot. The ABCG2 protein expression and localization in intestinal tissues were determined by immunohistochemistry. The ABCG2 mRNA expression in small intestine was measured by quantitative real-time PCR. ResultThe levels of serum uric acid， serum creatinine， and blood urea nitrogen in the model group were higher than those in the normal group （P<0.01）. Low level of serum uric acid in the three Simiaowan groups and benzbromarone group （P<0.01）， high level of intestinal uric acid in medium-dose and low-dose Simiaowan groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）， high level of serum creatinine in benzbromarone group （P<0.01）， and low level of blood urea nitrogen in low-dose Simiaowan group （P<0.05） were observed as compared with those in the model group. Serum uric acid showed insignificant difference between the low-dose Simiaowan group and benzbromarone group. The expression of ABCG2 protein in the model group was lower than that in the normal group （P<0.05）. The expression of ABCG2 protein in the medium-dose and low-dose Simiaowan groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）， the high-dose Simiaowan group， and benzbromarone group increased as compared with that in the model group. ABCG2 mRNA expression was insignificantly different between the model group and the normal group， while the expression in the medium-dose and low-dose Simiaowan groups was higher than that in the model group （P<0.05）. ABCG2 protein was mainly distributed in intestinal villi， and ABCG2 protein expression demonstrated no significant difference between the model group and the normal group. The ABCG2 protein expression in the three Simiaowan groups increased as compared with that in the model group （P<0.05）. ConclusionSimiaowan can significantly reduce the serum uric acid level in hyperuricemia rats. Particularly， the low-dose Simiaowan shows similar efficacy to benzbromarone in lowering uric acid and protects renal function. The mechanism is the likelihood that it up-regulates intestinal ABCG2 expression to promote intestinal excretion of uric acid.

This study reports the diagnosis and treatment of 2 children with isolated testicular recurrence (ITR) of acute B lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) treated with CD 19 targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (CD 19 CAR-T) cells in May and December 2019 in the Department of Hematology and Oncology, Children′s Hospital of Soochow University, and explores the efficacy of CD 19 CAR-T cells therapy versus conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy through literature review.Both cases were diagnosed as B-ALL by the morphologic, immunologic, cytogenetic and molecular biology methods.ITR was diagnosed by testicular biopsy at 60 months and 38 months after initial diagnosis in 2 cases, respectively.After infusion of CD 19 CAR-T cells at 7.0×10 6/kg and 1.5×10 7/kg, respectively for 7-10 days, testicular leukemia cell infiltration disappeared and complete remission was obtained.Among them, case 2 developed cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell-related neurotoxicity syndrome after treatment, which was improved after drug intervention.It is suggested that CD 19 CAR-T cells are effective in the treatment of ITR in children, which may be an alternative to orchiectomy or local radiotherapy for ITR in children with B-ALL.

Objective: To investigate death and attrition in HIV-infected children under initial antiretroviral therapy (ART) and associated factors in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in HIV-infected children under initial ART in Guangxi from 2004 to 2019, data from ART information system of National comprehensive AIDS prevention and treatment information system. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess factors associated with the death and attrition. Results: In 943 HIV-infected children, the overall mortality and attrition rates were 1.00/100 person-years and 0.77/100 person-years, respectively. The mortality and attrition rates within the first year of ART were 3.90/100 person-years and 1.67/100 person-years, respectively. The cumulative survival rate during the first, second, fifth and tenth year after ART was 96.14%, 95.80%, 93.68% and 91.54%, respectively. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models results showed that being female (aHR=2.00, 95%CI: 1.17-3.40), CD4⁺T lymphocytes (CD4) counts before ART <200 cells/μl (aHR=2.79, 95%CI: 1.54-5.06), weight-for-age Z score before ART <-2 (aHR=2.38, 95%CI: 1.32-4.26), hemoglobin before ART <80 g/L (aHR=2.47, 95%CI: 1.24-4.92), initial ART with LPV/r (aHR=5.05, 95%CI: 1.15-22.12) were significantly associated with death; being female (aHR=2.23, 95%CI: 1.22-4.07) and initial ART with LPV/r (aHR=2.02, 95%CI: 1.07-3.79) were significantly associated with attrition. Conclusions: The effect of ART in HIV-infected children in Guangxi was better, but the mortality and attrition rates were high within the first year of treatment. It is necessary to strengthen the training in medical staff and health education in HIV-infected children and their parents in order to improve the treatment effect.

Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease.Previous studies have shown that children are vulnerable to monkeypox and are also at high risk for severe disease or complications.In order to improve pediatricians′ understanding of monkeypox and achieve early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment and early disposal, the committee composed of more than 40 experts in the related fields of infectious diseases, pediatrics, infection control and public health formulate this expert consensus, on the basis of the latest clinical management and infection prevention and control for monkeypox released by the World Health Organization (WHO), the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of monkeypox (version 2022) issued by National Health Commission of the People′s Republic of China and other relevant documents.During the development of this consensus, multidisciplinary experts have repeatedly demonstrated the etiology, epidemiology, transmission, clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, treatment, discharge criteria, prevention, case management process and key points of prevention and control about monkeypox.

Since December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) infections have raged globally for more than 2 years.China has always adopted scientific and effective prevention and control measures to achieved some success.However, with the continuous variation of SARS-CoV-2 cases and imported cases from abroad, the prevention and control work has become more difficult and complex.With the variation of the mutant strain, the number of cases in children changed, and some new special symptoms and complications were found, which proposed a new topic for the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children in China.Based on the third edition, the present consensus according to the characteristics of the new strain, expounded the etiology, pathology, pathogenesis, and according to the clinical characteristics and experience of children′s cases, and puts forward recommendations on the diagnostic criteria, laboratory examination, treatment, prevention and control of children′s cases for providing reference for further guidance of effective prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children in China.

Malocclusion is one of the three most common oral diseases reported by World Health Organization(WHO). In China, its incidence rate is rising. Malocclusion seriously affects the dental and maxillofacial function, facial appearance and growth development of nearly 260 million children in China, and what is more, it affects their physical and mental health development. Malocclusion occurrence is related to genetic and environmental factors. Early treatment of malocclusion can create a good dental and maxillofacial development environment, correct abnormal growth and control the adverse effects of abnormal genetic factors. It can effectively reduce the prevalence of children's malocclusion and enhance their physical and mental health. This is an urgent need from the economic perspective of our society, so it has great practical and social significance. Experts from the project group "standard diagnose and treatment protocols for early orthodontic intervention of malocclusions of children" which initiated by China National Health Institute of Hospital Administration wrote the "China Experts' Consensus on Preventive and Interceptive Orthodontic Treatments of Malocclusions of Children", which aims to guide and popularize the clinical practice, improve the clinical theory and practice level, and accelerate the disciplinary development of early treatment of children's malocclusion in China. The consensus elaborates the harmfulness of malocclusion and the necessity of early treatment, and brings up the principles and fundamental contents. Based on the law of dental and maxillofacial development, this paper puts forward the guiding suggestions of preventive and interceptive treatments in different stages of dental development ranging from fetus to early permanent dentition. It is a systematic project to promote and standardize the early treatment of malocclusion. Through scientific and comprehensive stratified clinical practice and professional training, the clinical system of early treatment of malocclusion in China will eventually be perfected, so as to comprehensively care for children's dental and maxillofacial health, and improve their oral and physical health in China.
