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.

BackgroundNon-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behaviors have become a serious global public health issue.The detection rate of NSSI behaviors among college students in China ranges from 9.8% to 13.53%. Integrated theoretical models suggest that distal family risk factors influence NSSI behaviors through emotional regulation mechanisms. However， existing researches have predominantly focused on single family risks， leaving the relationship between cumulative family risks and NSSI behaviors， as well as the underlying pathways， remain unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the effects of cumulative family risk on NSSI behaviors among college students， analyze the chain mediating roles of emotional regulation difficulties and depression， and examine the moderating effect of gender， so as to provide references for targeted interventions for NSSI behaviors in college students. MethodsOn March 1， 2024， a cluster sampling method was employed to select 518 college students from two universities in Heilongjiang Province. Assessments were conducted using Chinese version of the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire （CTQ）， the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale （DERS）， the Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9） and the Adolescent Self-Injury Questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the impact of cumulative family risk factors on NSSI behaviors among college students. Model 6 in Process 4.1 was applied to test the chain mediating roles of emotional regulation difficulties and depression in the relationship between cumulative family risk and NSSI behaviors， while model 83 was utilized to analyze the moderating effects of gender on the path "cumulative family risk → emotion regulation difficulties". ResultsA total of 475 （91.70%） college students completed valid questionnaires. Logistic regression analysis revealed that childhood abuse （OR=2.561， 95% CI： 1.566-2.561）， non-parental family structure （OR=2.108， 95% CI：1.102-4.029） and left-behind experience （OR=2.356， 95% CI： 1.021-5.439） were risk factors for NSSI behaviors among college students. Cumulative family risk positively predicted NSSI behaviors （β=0.345，95% CI：1.059-4.286， P<0.01）， and this relationship was mediated by a chain pathway involving emotional regulation difficulties （β=0.136，95% CI： 0.882-4.681， P<0.05） and depression （β=0.160， 95% CI： 0.316-1.073， P<0.01）. Gender moderated the relationship between cumulative family risk and emotional regulation difficulties （β=0.103， 95% CI： 1.567-8.316， P<0.01）， with cumulative family risk significantly predicting emotional regulation difficulties in female students （β=0.374， 95% CI： 0.099-0.084， P<0.01）. ConclusionCumulative family risk can directly influence college students' NSSI behaviors， and may also indirectly affect NSSI behaviors through the mediating roles of emotional regulation difficulties and depression. The path "cumulative family risk → emotional regulation difficulties" in this mediating model is moderated by gender.［Funded by Heilongjiang Philosophy and Social Sciences Research Planning Project （number， 24SHB007）］

Objective By exploring the establishment of a follow-up and pre-visit model,this study aims to facilitate the development of a modernized Chinese medical service model for public hospitals,characterized by optimized workflows,continu-ous care models,efficient services,comfortable environments,and patient-centered attitudes,thereby improving patient experi-ence and enhancing the quality of outpatient follow-up visits.Methods Under the value co-creation framework,with both healthcare providers and patients as core value stakeholders,this program introduced a self-service examination appointment plat-form,established a follow-up and pre-visit process,and implemented time-slot-based appointments for diagnosis and treatment.These steps aim to promote the equitable allocation of medical resources and refine the follow-up and pre-visit model in public hospitals.Results Implementation at Hospital P demonstrated that after process reengineering,patients'average in-hospital time reduced by nearly 135 minutes,significantly enhancing treatment efficiency,satisfaction levels among both medical staff and patients,and accessibility of medical services.Conclusion Grounded in value co-creation theory,the follow-up and pre-visit model of Hospital P is divided into three stages:mutual value positioning of both doctors and patients,collaborative value crea-tion,and sustained value continuation for both.This alignment between process reengineering goals and value co-creation out-comes helps improve the quality of medical services,better meet the medical needs of patients,and achieve a win-win scenario for both doctors and patients.

The presence of magnetic fields in a magnetic resonance accelerator (MR-linac) can affect the reference dosimetry, and thus the existing Code of Practices (CoPs) are inadequate for MR-linac. In this article, the characteristics of adsorbed dose to water and ionization chamber response in the presence of magnetic fields were introduced and a formalism for reference dosimetry in MR-linac was developed based on the existing CoPs, aiming to provide reference for dosimetric quality control and research work of MR-linac in China.
