Objective:To compare the trueness of incisal guidance of implant-supported single crowns designed by patient-specific motion(PSM)with that designed by average-value virtual articulator(AVA).Methods:The study had recruited 12 participants with complete dentition and stable incisal guidance.An intraoral scanner was used to scan digital casts and record two types of patient-specific mo-tion(data only including protrusive movement,and data including protrusive movement and lateral pro-trusive movement).The lingual surfaces of the maxillary incisors which guided the protrusive movement was selected and elevated to create a reference cast.A maxillary central incisor of original casts was vir-tually extracted and implanted to generate a working cast.The Dental system software program was used to design implant-supported single crowns with the anatomical coping design method.The incisal guidance was designed by different methods.The incisal guidance in control group was designed by the average-value virtual articulator.The incisal guidance in experiment groups was designed by the patient-specific motion only including protrusive movement(PSM1)and with the patient-specific motion including protru-sive movement and lateral protrusive movement(PSM2).The incisal guidance of prosthesis designed by these 3 methods were compared with the original incisal guidance in Geomagic Control 2015(3DSystem,America).The measurements included:Average of positive values,ratio of positive area and maximum value reflecting supra-occlusion;average of negative values,ratio of negative area and minimum value re-flecting over-correction;and root mean square reflecting overall deviation.Results:Statistical data were collected using the median(interquartile range)method.The average of positive values,ratio of positive area and average of negative values of the PSM2 group were smaller than those of the control group[8.0(18.8)μm vs.37.5(47.5)μm;0vs.7.2％(38.1％);-109.0(63.8)μm vs.-66.5(64.5)μm],and the ratio of negative area of PSM2 group was larger than those of the control group[52.9％(47.8％)vs.17.3％(45.3％)],with significant differences(P all＜0.05).The ratio of positive area[0.1％(7.0％)]and average of negative values[-97.0(61.5)μm]of PSM1 group,were smaller than those of the control group,and the ratio of negative area[40.7％(39.2％)]of the PSM1 group was larger than that of the control group,with significant differences(P＜0.05).The average of positive values[20.0(42.0)μm]and ratio of positive area of PSM1 group was larger than that of the PSM2 group with significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion:To establish the incisor guidance of implant-supported single crowns,compared with the average-value virtual articulator and the patient-specific motion only including protrusive movement,the patient-specific motion including protrusive movement and lateral protrusive movement is more conducive to reducing the protrusive interference of prosthesis and improving the occlusal fit.

Objective To explore the efficacy of a new anti-heart failure drug,Entresto,in the prevention of cardiotoxicity caused by doxorubicin(DOX).Methods Male adult ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups(n = 8):control group,DOX group and DOX plus Entresto group.Cardiac function of mice was measured by echocardiography.H9c2 cells were pretreated with Entresto(0-48 μmol/L)for 24 hours in the presence or absence of DOX(1 mmol/L),and then cell viability,oxidative stress,apoptosis and mitochondrial function were evaluated.Results As compared with the control group,leakage of CK,CK-MB and LDH increased significantly in the DOX group(P<0.01),and left ventricular systolic dysfunction occurred.Entresto administration reversed these changes in the DOX group.The level of ROS and the number of apoptotic cells in cardiomyocytes in the DOX plus Entresto group were lower than those in the DOX group(P<0.05).As compared with the DOX group,the level of ROS and the number of apoptotic cells in H9c2 cells decreased significantly in the Entresto plus DOX group(P<0.05),and mitochondrial membrane potential increased significantly(P<0.05).Entresto reversed the inhibitory effect of DOX on SIRT1/PGC-1α/MFN2 signaling pathway.Conclusions Entresto improves DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by inhibiting ROS-mediated oxidative stress and apoptosis,and its mechanism may be related to SIRT1/PGC-1α/MFN2 signal transduction pathway.

Background To date,pharmacologic therapy is considered the standard first-line treatment for insomnia disorder,but there are still some concerns over the adverse reactions.Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)and cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia(CBT-I)as an alternative to pharmacologic therapy have the advantages of fewer side effects and better patient tolerance in the treatment of chronic insomnia disorder.Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of rTMS and CBT-I on chronic insomnia disorder,so as to provide a novel therapeutic option for the treatment of chronic insomnia disorder.Methods A total of 50 patients with chronic insomnia disorder attending the outpatient clinic of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Mental Health Center or community hospital from September 21,2020 to December 16,2021 and fulfilling the International Classification of Sleep Disorders,third edition(ICSD-3)diagnostic criteria were enrolled.Additionally,16 age-and sex-matched healthy controls recruited from the community were set as control group.Patients were randomly divided into rTMS group and CBT-I group,25 cases in each group,and received rTMS or CBT-I intervention for 6 weeks respectively.At enrollment and completion of intervention,patients were subjected to Polysomnography(PSG),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),Insomnia Severity Index(ISI)and Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status(RBANS).All participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI)scans,and amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation(ALFF)was calculated.The brain regions with statistically different ALFF values between patient group and control group were chosen as regions of interest(ROIs),and whole-brain seed-based functional connectivity analyses were conducted.Results After a 6-week intervention in the two groups,the main effect of time was significant for PSQI(F=41.160,P<0.05),ISI(F=69.615,P<0.05)and RBANS immediate memory(F=47.923,P<0.05),language(F=12.090,P<0.05)and delayed memory indices(F=28.193,P<0.05).A significant main effect of time for total sleep time(F=8.995,P<0.05),a significant main effect of time for sleep efficiency(F=12.414,P<0.05),a significant main effect of group for sleep efficiency(F=4.342,P<0.05)and a significant main effect of time for N1%(F=7.806,P<0.05)were observed.Sleep efficacy in CBT-I group improved significantly from pre-to post-test(t=-2.785,P<0.05).Patients in rTMS group showed increased functional connectivity between the orbital superior frontal gyrus and other regions including left lentiform nucleus putamen(t=4.991,P<0.05),right median cingulate and paracingulate gyri(t=4.471,P<0.05)and right postcentral gyrus(t=4.922,P<0.05),and increased functional connectivity between the orbital superior frontal gyrus and left middle frontal gyrus was found in CBT-I group(t=6.586,P<0.05).Conclusion rTMS and CBT-I may help alleviate insomnia and improve cognitive function of patients with chronic insomnia disorder.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of honey in preoperative bowel preparation for colonoscopy in hospitalized patients.Methods 87 patients from April 2022 to July 2022 and underwent preoperative bowel preparation for colonoscopy were selected as the research subjects.Convenience sampling was used to divide them into a control group(n=43)and an observation group(n=44).The control group received a conventional regimen of taking compound polyethylene glycol(PEG)electrolyte powder(Heshuang),while the observation group added 20 mL of honey to the Heshuang solution.Compare the cleanliness of intestine,and palatability of the taste,the incidence of adverse reactions,satisfaction of patients,and the rate of willingness for prepeat bowel preparation between the two groups.Results The intestinal cleanliness of the two groups of patients was equivalent,the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).The incidence and severity of nausea,abdominal bloating,hypoglycemia,and anal irritation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The observation group had better taste,patients satisfaction,and the willingness for prepeat bowel preparation compared to the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Honey can improve the taste of Heshuang,reduce the severity of oral adverse reactions,increase patient satisfaction,and increase the rate of willingness for prepeat bowel preparation.

Purpose To investigate the value of MYB and Notch1 immunohistochemical staining in the differential diagno-sis of classic adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast(C-AdCC)and solid-basaloid adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast(SB-AdCC).Methods MYB and Notch1 immunohistochemical staining were performed in 20 cases of C-AdCC,6 cases of SB-AdCC and 65 cases of other breast lesions in the archives of pa-thology department.26 cases of AdCC were detected by FISH,and 6 cases of SB-AdCC were detected by NGS.Results MYB immunohistochemical staining showed that C-AdCC(20/20)was moderately or strongly positive,while SB-AdCC(4/6)was mod-erately or strongly positive.Collagenous spherulosis(5/5)showed focal or diffuse weak positivity;Malignant adenomyoepi-thelioma(3/3)was focally moderately or strongly positive;8 matrix-producing carcinomas and 9 secretory carcinomas and 40 non-specific triple-negative breast cancers were negative.Immu-nohistochemistry of Notch1 showed diffuse moderate positive for SB-AdCC(3/6)and negative for C-AdCC(20/20).3 cases of malignant adenomyoepithelioma,5 cases of collagenous spherulo-sis,8 cases of matrix-producing carcinoma,9 cases of secretory carcinoma and 40 cases of non-specific triple-negative breast cancer were negative.FISH showed MYB gene disruption in C-AdCC(12/19)and NGS showed SB-AdCC(3/6)Notch1 muta-tion.Conclusion Moderately or strongly diffuse expression of MYB and Notch1 by immunohistochemistry can assist in the dif-ferentiation of C-AdCC from SB-AdCC,and it can be further clarified by molecular detection when it is difficult to distinguish malignant adenomyoepithelioma.

Objective To describe the diagnosis,treatment,and clinical course of a patient with severe acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning(AOPP)complicated by recurrent respiratory failure,intermediate syndrome(IMS),multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS)and sepsis.Methods On May 8,2021,a patient who self-administered the pesticide Dimethoate AOPP was admitted to the department of internal medicine intensive care unit(MICU)of the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province.After 29 days of treatment,the patient was successfully cured and discharged.The clinical diagnosis and treatment process was introduced.Results The 78-year-old male patient suffered from severe AOPP due to self-ingestion of the pesticide leptophos.Upon admission,he rapidly developed respiratory failure requiring urgent endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation support.A series of targeted treatments were administered,including the use of reactivators such as pralidoxime iodide,anticholinergic agents like atropine and scopolamine,as well as antibiotic therapy and management of water-electrolyte balance and acid-base equilibrium.Throughout his treatment,the patient experienced multiple complications,including episodes of sepsis,fluctuating cholinesterase levels,infections from multidrug-resistant bacteria,and recurrent respiratory failures.After 29 days of meticulous care,the patient was successfully weaned off the ventilator,regained normal organ function,and was discharged.Conclusion The analysis of this case highlights the importance of closely monitoring and managing drug dosage adjustments,preventing and treating infections,addressing septic shock,paying attention to the prevention and control of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP),conducting timely psychological evaluations,and providing interventions during the treatment process for AOPP.

Trihelix transcription factors play important roles in plant light responses, growth and development, and stress responses. However, Trihelix has not yet been reported in Eucommia ulmoides. In this study, bioinformatics methods were used to comprehensively identify and analyze the expression patterns of the Trihelix gene family in E. ulmoides, aiming to provide a basis for further functional studies of EuGTs genes. A total of 9 Trihelix gene family members were identified in E. ulmoides, encoding proteins with 339 to 883 amino acids, with isoelectric points ranging from 5.13 to 9.39 and relative molecular weights between 36 992.06 and 97 871.61. Subcellular localization results showed that only EuGT-2 was localized in chloroplasts, while the others were located in the nucleus. The Trihelix gene family was categorized into six subfamilies: GT-1, GT-2, SH4, SIP1, GTγ, and GTδ. EuGTs were distributed among three subfamilies: SH4, GT-1, and GT-2, containing 1, 6, and 2 Trihelix proteins, respectively, with 2 to 17 exons. The promoters of EuGTs contained various cis-acting elements related to hormones, stress, photoperiod, and growth and development. Collinearity analysis revealed 5 collinear gene pairs between E. ulmoides and Arabidopsis thaliana, and 14 collinear gene pairs between E. ulmoides and Populus. Expression pattern analysis showed that EuGTs exhibited tissue-specific expression: EuGT-1, EuGT-2 had the highest expression levels in leaves, EuGT-4, EuGT-6, EuGT-9 had the highest transcriptional levels in marginal peel, and EuGT-5、EuGT-8 were predominantly expressed in the xylem. As leaves developed, EuGTs showed a trend of asynchronous changes. No significant differences in EuGTs expression were observed between male and female flowers, with high expression levels mainly during the induction stage of flowering. The qRT-PCR analysis indicated that most EuGTs genes were most highly expressed in the leaves of E. ulmoides, while EuGT-5 was highly expressed in the stems. Under 200 mmol·L~(-1) NaCl treatment, most EuGTs genes exhibited an initial increase followed by a decrease in expression, significantly responding to salt stress. This study provides important genetic resources for further exploration of EuGTs gene functions and germplasm innovation in E. ulmoides.

【Objective:】 To explore the network characteristics of sleep quality and anxiety in first-line medical staff fighting against COVID-19, further understand the relationship between sleep quality and anxiety, and provide basis for intervention. 【Methods:】 Using the convenient sampling method, this paper used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) to conduct a questionnaire survey on the front-line medical staff who fought against the epidemic during the COVID-19. Network analysis was used to construct sleep quality and anxiety network, and R language was used for statistical analysis and visualization. 【Results:】 In the network of sleep quality and anxiety of first-line medical staff fighting against COVID-19, "sleep disorder" and "sleep quality", "unfortunate premonition" and "inability to sit still", "syncope" and "hand and foot tingling" were highly related. "Fatigue", "dizziness" and "panic" had the highest expected influence. "Sleep quality", "sleep disorder" and "fatigue" had the highest bridge expected influence. The average predictability value of all nodes was 0.778. 【Conclusion:】 This paper used network analysis to explore the sleep quality and anxiety of first-line medical staff fighting against COVID-19 and found that there was a unique correlation path between them. Intervention against core symptoms can ameliorate anxiety and sleep problems to the great extent, and provide guidance for improving the physical and mental health.

Itch is an unpleasant sensation that urges people and animals to scratch. Neuroimaging studies on itch have yielded extensive correlations with diverse cortical and subcortical regions, including the insular lobe. However, the role and functional specificity of the insular cortex (IC) and its subdivisions in itch mediation remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and fiber photometry tests, that neurons in both the anterior insular cortex (AIC) and the posterior insular cortex (PIC) are activated during acute itch processes. Pharmacogenetic experiments revealed that nonselective inhibition of global AIC neurons, or selective inhibition of the activity of glutaminergic neurons in the AIC, reduced the scratching behaviors induced by intradermal injection of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), but not those induced by compound 48/80. However, both nonselective inhibition of global PIC neurons and selective inhibition of glutaminergic neurons in the PIC failed to affect the itching-scratching behaviors induced by either 5-HT or compound 48/80. In addition, pharmacogenetic inhibition of AIC glutaminergic neurons effectively blocked itch-associated conditioned place aversion behavior, and inhibition of AIC glutaminergic neurons projecting to the prelimbic cortex significantly suppressed 5-HT-evoked scratching. These findings provide preliminary evidence that the AIC is involved, at least partially via aversive emotion mediation, in the regulation of 5-HT-, but not compound 48/80-induced itch.
