Molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a developmental defect of enamel that is characterized primarily by abnormal enamel mineralization affecting the first permanent molars and permanent incisors. Due to insufficient mineralization, teeth affected by MIH are prone to post-eruptive breakdown and caries, potentially leading to sequelae such as tooth sensitivity and occlusal problems. The diagnosis of MIH is primarily based on relevant perinatal and infantile medical history, the characteristic distribution of affected teeth, and the morphological features of the enamel defects. Based on the extent and severity of the enamel defect, MIH is classified as mild or severe. Diagnosis and treatment strategies emphasize early screening, diagnosis, and intervention, prioritizing prevention, providing symptomatic care, and implementing regular recall assessments. Mild MIH predominantly manifests as demineralized enamel opacities or discoloration, typically without significant enamel breakdown. Treatment focuses on caries prevention and aesthetic restoration, employing techniques such as remineralization, micro-abrasion, resin infiltration, bleaching, fluoride application, and fissure sealants. Severe MIH typically presents with extensive enamel opacities accompanied by substantial enamel breakdown and may be complicated by caries and tooth sensitivity. Management primarily involves restoring the structural defects or, for teeth that cannot be preserved, extraction followed by orthodontic treatment. Comprehensive management often requires a multimodal approach integrating various therapeutic modalities to restore both the function and aesthetics of the affected teeth and overall dentition. This article provides a review of advancements in diagnosis and the treatment strategies for MIH, offering a reference for clinical practice.

Objective To explore the adverse event signals of children using macrolide drugs （azithromycin, clarithromycin, and erythromycin）, and provide reference for rational medicine use in clinical practice. Methods Data from children under 12 years old were extracted from the US FAERS database spanning from the first quarter of 2004 to the second quarter of 2023. The adverse drug reaction （ADR） signal mining for three macrolide antibiotics was conducted using the Reporting Odds Ratio （ROR） and Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network （BCPNN） methods. Special emphasis was placed on analyzing and contrasting the differences in adverse events among the three drugs. Results A total of 1 615 reports for children under 12 years old were retrieved from the FAERS database, including 1 024 reports of azithromycin, 460 reports of clarithromycin, and 131 reports of erythromycin. Among azithromycin and erythromycin, there were more reports from boys than girls, while for clarithromycin, there were more reports from girls than boys. Oral administration was the most common route of administration for all three drugs. Regarding the outcome of adverse events reported, azithromycin and clarithromycin were primarily associated with other serious adverse events, whereas erythromycin was mainly associated with hospitalization and other serious adverse events. The number of adverse events reported decreased with increasing age, with a higher number of reports in the 0-3 age group. Using the ROR and BCPNN methods for signal detection, 86 signals were identified for azithromycin, 91 for clarithromycin, and 34 for erythromycin. These signals involved 22 System Organ Classes （SOCs）, with azithromycin mainly concentrated in skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders （n=21）, clarithromycin in gastrointestinal disorders （n=15）, and erythromycin in gastrointestinal disorders （n=8）. Twenty-four signals of moderate to high risk were detected, with 13 for azithromycin, 9 for clarithromycin, and 2 for erythromycin. Conclusion The adverse events induced by the three drugs with different risks in different systems. When clinically treating Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children, the risk profiles of drugs in different systems should be considered, and personalized dosing should be implemented.

Objective:To analyze the reasons of misdiagnosed cases in the intraoperative frozen pathological diagnosis of breast disease and explore effective measures and practices for targeted and standardized quality control.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 2 421 cases of breast intraoperative frozen pathological examination performed at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from Apr. 2020 to Dec. 2021. The results of intraoperative frozen pathological examination were compared with postoperative pathological results to calculate the overall concordance rate and misdiagnosis rate. Pathological classification and causative analysis were performed for misdiagnosed cases. Standardized management was implemented to address the identified issues, and an analysis was conducted on 2248 cases from Feb. 2022 to Nov. 2023 to compare the overall concordance rate and misdiagnosis rate before and after management.Results:The comparison between intraoperative rapid frozen pathology diagnosis and postoperative paraffin pathology diagnosis showed that among the 2 421 breast specimens, there were 2 377 cases (98.18%) with concordant results and 44 cases of misdiagnosis, resulting in a misdiagnosis rate of 1.82%. The pathological types of 44 misdiagnosed cases were analyzed, among which 10 cases were lymph node metastatic carcinoma, 5 were lobar tumors, 3 were intraductal papillary tumors, 7 were carcinoma in situ and common hyperplasia each, and 4 were carcinoma in situ, sclerosing adenopathy, and other invasive carcinoma each. Through the analysis of causes, it was found that poor slide quality, the need for immunohistochemistry assistance, careless slide reading, missed critical lesions, and other factors contributed to misdiagnosis, with variations in the causes of misdiagnosis among different pathological types. After implementing standardized management, the overall concordance rate significantly improved (98.93%) and the misdiagnosis rate significantly decreased (1.07%) .Conclusions:Intraoperative frozen pathological diagnosis is of great significance in the treatment of breast diseases. The targeted standardized quality control can help early detection and solve problems, reduce the differences between different doctors and technicians, and improve the accuracy of intraoperative frozen pathological diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of a bleeding risk graded management program in patients with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) undergoing catheter-directed thrombosis (CDT) .Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 100 DVT patients who underwent CDT from October 2021 to December 2023 in the Nanjing First Hospital as study subjects. According to the propensity matching score ratio of 1: 1, patients were divided into control group and observation group, with 50 cases in each group. Control group implemented CDT routine nursing and rehabilitation exercises, and observation group implemented a bleeding risk graded management program based on control group by dynamically monitoring changes in plasma fibrinogen and blood pressure. Differences in the rates of swelling reduction in the limbs, venous patency, bleeding events and hospitalization satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:After the intervention, the swelling reduction rate of the limbs of DVT patients in observation group was (85.07±11.96) %, and the rate of venous patency was (89.00±25.33) %, and that of control group was (70.85±21.73) %, (75.00±35.36) %, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The rate of bleeding events was lower in the observation group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The difference in hospitalization satisfaction between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The bleeding risk graded management program developed after comprehensive assessment can realize the balance between the therapeutic benefit and bleeding risk of CDT for DVT patients, and can improve the safety and effectiveness of CDT.

Pulpotomy, which belongs to vital pulp therapy, has become a strategy for managing pulpitis in recent decades. This minimally invasive treatment reflects the recognition of preserving healthy dental pulp and optimizing long-term patient-centered outcomes. Pulpotomy is categorized into partial pulpotomy (PP), the removal of a partial segment of the coronal pulp tissue, and full pulpotomy (FP), the removal of whole coronal pulp, which is followed by applying the biomaterials onto the remaining pulp tissue and ultimately restoring the tooth. Procedural decisions for the amount of pulp tissue removal or retention depend on the diagnostic of pulp vitality, the overall treatment plan, the patient's general health status, and pulp inflammation reassessment during operation. This statement represents the consensus of an expert committee convened by the Society of Cariology and Endodontics, Chinese Stomatological Association. It addresses the current evidence to support the application of pulpotomy as a potential alternative to root canal treatment (RCT) on mature permanent teeth with pulpitis from a biological basis, the development of capping biomaterial, and the diagnostic considerations to evidence-based medicine. This expert statement intends to provide a clinical protocol of pulpotomy, which facilitates practitioners in choosing the optimal procedure and increasing their confidence in this rapidly evolving field.
