Objective: To explore the association between mediterranean diet (MD) patterns and dental caries among children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), so as to provide a basis for developing scientific anti caries strategies related to diet. Methods: From December 2021 to June 2024, a questionnaire survey, a three day 24 hour dietary review survey, oral health examination, physical development measurement and Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) evaluation were conducted involving 147 children and adolescents aged 2-22 years with NDD from nine special education schools and rehabilitation institutions in Tianjin. Group comparisons were carried out using the Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test, or Fisher s exact probability method. The correlation between dietary quality and dental caries was analyzed by adopting multiple linear regression analysis and restricted cubic spline. Results: There were 46 children and adolescents (31.3%) in the non dental caries group and 101 children and adolescents (68.7%) in the dental caries group. The number of decayed missing and filled teeth (dmft) was 2.0 (4.0), and the MD score was 4.0 (2.0) points. There were 62 children and adolescents (42.2%) in the low MD scores group and 85 children and adolescents (57.8%) in the high MD scores group. There was no significant difference in MD scores between NDD children in the non dental caries group and those in the dental caries group [nondental caries group:4.0(2.0), dental caries group:4.0(2.0), Z= -0.14, P >0.05]. The MD scores and dmft exhibited increasing and then decreasing trend ( P total =0.02, P non lineary = 0.04 ). Children and adolescents with NDD in the MD high scores group had a lower number of dmft than those in the MD low scores group ( β= -2.00 , 95%CI =-3.39 to -0.62, P <0.05). However, in children and adolescents with NDD and CARS scores ≥30, the above association was insignificant ( β=-0.63, 95%CI=-0.29-0.15, P >0.05). Conclusion Children and adolescents with NDD who have dietary patterns similar to the Mediterranean diet, are found to have fewer dental caries, and this is observed among those with no or mild symptoms of autism spectrum disorder.

[Objective] To report a new technique that combines microfracture surgery under local anesthesia with injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) at the fracture site, so as to improve fracture healing rates. [Methods] Data from patients who visited our hospital from March 2020 to June 2023 and underwent the treatment for delayed union of limb fractures were retrospectively analyzed. Under local infiltrative anesthesia, with the assistance of a C-arm X-ray machine or ultrasound, percutaneous loosening was done at the fracture site and the medullary cavity, followed by cortical drilling around the fracture. The previously prepared PRP was then injected locally at the fracture site. Patients were followed up and their postoperative recovery was recorded. [Results] All patients were followed up, and the fracture healing rate was 94.12% (16/17), with an average healing duration of (5.88±2.50) months. None of the patients experienced any neural or vascular injuries, nor adverse events such as wound infections or osteomyelitis. Before the operation and at the last follow-up, the patients' pain visual analogue scores were (5.12±1.11) vs (0.71±1.21) respectively. The postoperative VAS scores showed a significant decrease compared to preoperative values (P<0.05). The excellent and good rate for limb function on the affected side was 88.24% (14/17) at the last follow-up, which was a significant increase from 0.00% before surgery (P<0.05). [Conclusion] The injection of PRP at the fracture site combined with microfracture surgery at the fracture site is minimally invasive, simple to perform, and well-accepted by patients. It has demonstrated some clinical efficacy in treating delayed fracture healing.

Objective To study the effectiveness of pro-abdominal exercise in improving the quality of gastroscopy,and provide patients with a better preoperative preparation for gastroscopy.Methods 307 patients who underwent painless gastroscopy from March to July 2023 were selected and divided into three groups according to the random number table method.There were 106 cases in the abdominal massage group,103 cases in the bed turning group and 98 cases in the control group.On the basis of routine medication,different preoperative activity guidance was used to compare and analyze the preoperative preparation time,examination time and gastric mucosal visual field clarity score in each group.Results The gastroscopy time in the abdominal massage group and the bed-turning group was significantly shorter than that in the control group,and the clarity score of the gastric mucosal visual field was significantly lower than that of the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the gastroscopy time or visual field clarity score for gastric body,gastric fundus,and gastric antrum between the abdominal massage group and the bed-turning group(P>0.05).The satisfaction rate of endoscopists in the abdominal massage group and the bed turning group was higher than that in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant.Conclusion Abdominal massage and turning over in bed as preoperative preparation methods for gastroscopy can improve the quality of gastroscopy,while abdominal massage can shorten the preparation time before gastroscopy,which is helpful for the efficient operation of digestive endoscopy center and is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To explore the preventive and therapeutic effects of Caryopteris incana decoction in a rat model of primary dysmenorrhea with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome.Methods Sixty healthy specific pathogen-free SD female rats were randomly divided into six groups of ten rats each:normal group,model group,ibuprofen group,C.incana high-dose group,C.incana medium-dose group,and C.incana low-dose group.All groups except the normal group were treated with cold stimulation combined with estradiol benzoate and oxytocin to establish a rat model of primary dysmenorrhea with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome.On the fifth day of modeling,the rats were intragastrically administered the study drugs for 10 days.Their symptoms were observed and recorded.The writhing response and hemorheological indices were measured.The serum levels of TXB2,6-keto-prostaglandin F1α(6-Keto-PGF1α),estradiol(E2),and progesterone(PROG)were measured.Additionally,the levels of prostaglandin F2α(PGF2α),prostaglandin E2(PGE2),nitric oxide(NO),and calcium(Ca2+)in the uterine tissues were measured.The organ indices of the uterus and ovary were calculated,and histopathological changes were observed.Results Compared with the normal group,the rats in the model group showed obvious symptoms of cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome and writhing reaction.The morphology of uterus and ovary showed obvious hyperplasia,inflammation,edema and other lesions.The plasma viscosity,packed cell volume and whole blood viscosity were significantly increased(P＜0.01).The serum levels of thromboxane B2 and E2 and the E2/PROG ratio were significantly increased(P＜0.01),the levels of 6-Keto-PGF1α and PROG were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).The uterine index and ovarian index were significantly increased(P＜0.01).The levels of PGF2α and Ca2+and the PGF2α/PGE2 ratio in uterine tissue were significantly increased(P＜0.01),while the levels of PGE2 and NO were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,Caryopteris incana significantly improved the symptoms of model rats,improved the morphological lesions of the uterus and ovary,prolonged the latency time of the writhing reaction,and reduced the number of writhing episodes(P＜0.01);significantly reduced the plasma viscosity,packed cell volume,and whole blood viscosity(P＜0.01);significantly reduced the serum levels of TXB2 and E2 and the E2/PROG ratio,increased the serum levels of 6-Keto-PGF1αand PROG,and reduced the uterine and ovarian indices(P＜0.01,P＜0.05);significantly reduced the levels of PGF2αand Ca2+and the PGF2α/PGE2 ratio in uterine tissue(P＜0.01,P＜0.05);and significantly increased the levels of PGE2 and NO in the uterine tissue(P＜0.01).Conclusions Caryopteris incana decoction can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea in rats with cold coagulation and blood stasis syndrome,and it has a good control effect.Its mechanism may be correlated with the levels of TXB2,6-Keto-PGF1α,E2,and PROG in serum and PGF2α,PGE2,NO,and Ca2+in uterine tissue.

Objective To develop a Psychological Birth Trauma Assessment Scale and to test its reliability and validity.Methods Through literature review,semi-structured interview,expert conference,Delphi expert enquiry and preliminary investigation,a pre-test scale was formed.From March to May 2023,postpartum women from 38 hospitals of different levels in 15 provinces(Jiangsu,Anhui,Zhejiang,Fujian,Tibet,and Shanghai,etc.)were conveniently selected for investigation.The sample size of the first-round survey was 547,which was used for reliability and validity test.The sample size of the second-round survey was 550,which was used for confirmatory factor analysis.Results The psychological birth trauma assessment scale consisted of 2 parts,with a total of 29 items in 6 dimensions.The intrapartum feeling part included 4 dimensions,with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 63.992％,and the postpartum effect part included 2 dimensions,with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 68.208％.The content validity index of the scale was 0.947,and the content validity index of each item was 0.809～1.000.The total score of the scale and the scores of each dimension were significantly negatively correlated with the total score of the calibration scale(r=-0.784～-0.533,P＜0.001).The total Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.941,and the split-half reliability coefficient was 0.883.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the main evaluation indicators were all within the acceptable range.Conclusion The Psychological Birth Trauma Assessment Scale has good reliability and validity,and it can be used as an assessment tool for the degree of maternal psychological birth trauma.

Objective:To investigate the intention to stay on among primary health care workers (PHWs) during the COVID-19 epidemics and its influencing factors.Methods:An online questionnaire survey was conducted among PHWs from 62 primary health institutions in 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across China selected by multi-stage whole cluster random sampling method between May and October 2022. According to the job position, the PHWs were divided into 5 categories: general practitioners (GPs), nurses, public health doctors, managers and support staff. Intention to stay was measured using the Chinese version of the Intention to Stay Questionnaire. Multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the intention to stay in PHWs of different occupational categories, including personal factors, work factors, factors related to the COVID-19 and psychological reactions.Results:A total of 3 769 PHWs from 44 community health service centers, 18 township hospitals of 27 provinces/autonomous regions and 4 municipalities participated in this survey. The mean age of participants was (37.4±9.2) years, including 2 971(78.8%) women. The mean score of intention to stay of participants was 21.7±4.1. Compared with GPs, managers had lower intention to stay ( P=0.004). Age, female, in marriage, monthly income, years of primary care service, self-evaluation of unit support function, MSQ-SF score, and PA score were positively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05), while PHQ-9 score, EE score, and DP score were negatively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05). The MSQ-SF scores of all occupational categories were positively correlated with the scores of intention to stay (all P<0.01). In addition, among GPs, monthly income, years of service in primary care, self-evaluation of unit support function, and PA scores were positively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05), while PHQ-9 scores and EE scores were negatively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05). Among nurses, age, female gender, monthly income, self-evaluation of unit support function, and PA score were positively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05), while EE scores and retention will score were negatively associated with ( P<0.001). Among public health doctors, in marriage was positively correlated with the score of intention to stay ( P=0.018). Among managers, DP score was negatively correlated with the score of intention to stay ( P=0.001). Among support staff, female gender, monthly income, years of primary care service, self-evaluation of unit support function, and PA scores were positively correlated with the score of intention to stay (all P<0.05), while EE score and DP score were negatively correlated with intention to stay (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The intention to stay of PHWs in China during the COVID-19 was at an intermediate level, which was affected by many factors. Among them, job satisfaction was positively correlated with the intention to stay of all occupational categories, and the influencing factors of different occupational categories have some variations.

Objective To explore the lipid-lowering effect of Qige Decoction before and after compatibility through the combination of pharmacodynamics and liver metabolomics,and to provide new research strategies for exploring the scientific notation of traditional Chinese medicine compatibility.Methods According to the pharmacodynamic strategy,three groups of drug administration were set up as Qige Decoction group,Astragali Radix-Puerariae Radix group,and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae group.Four indices of blood lipids,serum biochemical indicators,and liver morphology and pathology were used to evaluate the intervention effect of Qige Decoction on hyperlipidemic rats.Liver metabolomics technology was used to analyze the effects of Qige Decoction on metabolites before and after compatibility,and multivariate statistical analysis was used to evaluate the differences between groups in terms of differential metabolites and metabolic pathways.Results Compared with the model group,the callback abilities of four indices of blood lipid in the Qige Decoction group were higher than those in Astragali Radix-Puerariae Radix group and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae group,among which the total cholesterol(TC)and triglyceride(TG)levels in the Qige Decoction group decreased(P＜0.05).A total of 86 potential biomarkers were identified by liver metabolomics,with 23,13,and 7 metabolites being significantly different in the Qige Decoction group,Astragali Radix-Puerariae Radix group,and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae group,respectively(P＜0.05).Metabolic pathway analysis of 29 specific biomarkers with significant callback effects showed that they were related to glycerophospholipid metabolism,linoleic acid metabolism,α-linolenic acid metabolism,sphingolipid metabolism,arachidonic acid metabolism,and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis.Qige Decoction mainly regulates glycerophospholipid and linoleic acid metabolism,and uniquely acts on sphingolipid metabolism.Conclusion Qige Decoction has more lipid-lowering targets after compatibility,with better lipid-lowering effects than the Astragali Radix-Puerariae Radix group and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae group.This study provides experimental evidence and research strategies for further revealing the scientific notation of traditional Chinese medicine compatibility.

Objective:In chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with previous 96-week treatment with tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), we investigated the efficacy of sequential TMF treatment from 96 to 144 weeks.Methods:Enrolled subjects who were previously assigned (2:1) to receive either 25 mg TMF or 300 mg TDF with matching placebo for 96 weeks received extended or switched TMF treatment for 48 weeks. Efficacy was evaluated based on virological, serological, biological parameters, and fibrosis staging. Statistical analysis was performed using the McNemar test, t-test, or Log-Rank test according to the data. Results:593 subjects from the initial TMF group and 287 subjects from the TDF group were included at week 144, with the proportions of HBV DNA<20 IU/ml at week 144 being 86.2% and 83.3%, respectively, and 78.1% and 73.8% in patients with baseline HBV DNA levels ≥8 log10 IU/ml. Resistance to tenofovir was not detected in both groups. For HBeAg loss and seroconversion rates, both groups showed a further increase from week 96 to 144 and the 3-year cumulative rates of HBeAg loss were about 35% in each group. However, HBsAg levels were less affected during 96 to 144 weeks. For patients switched from TDF to TMF, a substantial further increase in the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization rate was observed (11.4%), along with improved FIB-4 scores.Conclusion:After 144 weeks of TMF treatment, CHB patients achieved high rates of virological, serological, and biochemical responses, as well as improved liver fibrosis outcomes. Also, switching to TMF resulted in significant benefits in ALT normalization rates (NCT03903796).

Objective:In chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with previous 96-week treatment with tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), we investigated the safety profile of sequential TMF treatment from 96 to 144 weeks.Methods:Enrolled subjects that previously assigned (2:1) to receive either 25 mg TMF or 300 mg TDF with matching placebo for 96 weeks received extending or switching TMF treatment for 48 weeks. Safety profiles of kidney, bone, metabolism, body weight, and others were evaluated.Results:666 subjects from the initial TMF group and 336 subjects from TDF group with at least one dose of assigned treatment were included at week 144. The overall safety profile was favorable in each group and generally similar between extended or switched TMF treatments from week 96 to 144. In subjects switching from TDF to TMF, the non-indexed estimated glomerular filtration rate (by non-indexed CKD-EPI formula) and creatinine clearance (by Cockcroft-Gault formula) were both increased, which were (2.31±8.33) ml/min and (4.24±13.94) ml/min, respectively. These changes were also higher than those in subjects with extending TMF treatment [(0.91±8.06) ml/min and (1.30±13.94) ml/min]. Meanwhile, switching to TMF also led to an increase of the bone mineral density (BMD) by 0.75% in hip and 1.41% in spine. On the other side, a slight change in TC/HDL ratio by 0.16 (IQR: 0.00, 0.43) and an increase in body mass index (BMI) by (0.54±0.98) kg/m 2 were oberved with patients switched to TMF, which were significantly higher than that in TMF group. Conclusion:CHB patients receiving 144 weeks of TMF treatment showed favorable safety profile. After switching to TMF, the bone and renal safety was significantly improved in TDF group, though experienceing change in metabolic parameters and weight gain (NCT03903796).
