Piezo1 is a Ca²⁺-permeable mechanosensitive ion channel that plays a central role in mechanosensing and signal transduction in dental and periodontal tissues. In tooth tissue, Piezo1 is a key factor mediating dentin sensitive pain. The flow of dentinal tubule fluid induced by external stimulation can activate the Piezo1 channel on odontoblasts, triggering neuronal signals through the pannexin-1-purinergic 2X3 receptor (PANX-1-P2X3) receptor axis, resulting in pain perception. In addition, Piezo1 has a dual regulatory role in the process of pulp inflammation and repair : on the one hand, its expression is up-regulated in an inflammatory environment, which may aggravate pain sensitivity ; on the other hand, it activates the migration, proliferation and odontogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells by mediating Ca²⁺influx, ATP release and downstream purinergic 2X7 receptor (P2X7R), MEK / ERK signaling pathways, thereby promoting reparative dentin formation. In periodontal tissue, Piezo1 plays a central role in maintaining periodontal tissue homeostasis and regulating alveolar bone remodeling by sensing mechanical stimuli such as bite force. During orthodontic tooth movement, Piezo1 promotes osteogenic differentiation by activating Wnt / Ca²⁺, Notch and other pathways on the tension side. It affects osteoclast activity by regulating receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand/osteoprotegerin (RANKL/OPG) balance on the pressure side. At the same time, Piezo1 is also a key regulator of periodontal immune microenvironment. It is expressed in immune cells such as macrophages, neutrophils and dendritic cells. Its activation can promote the polarization of macrophages to pro-inflammatory M1 type, enhance the release of pro-inflammatory factors and matrix metalloproteinases, and thus aggravate the inflammatory destruction of periodontal tissue.In view of its multiple functions, Piezo1 has become a potential therapeutic target, including local or systemic application of its inhibitors, mechanical intervention, physical therapy, gene therapy and stem cell therapy, showing a broad clinical transformation prospect in the treatment of oral diseases. In this paper, the structural characteristics, signal transduction mechanism of Piezo1 and its expression distribution, function and regulatory network in tooth tissue and periodontal tissue are reviewed, so as to provide ideas for the development of oral disease treatment strategies targeting Piezo1.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the comorbidity of dyslipidemia, hypertension and diabetes and lifestyle of adult residents in Hebei Province in 2018, and to provide reference for the development of chronic diseases prevention measures. Methods Using data from the surveillance of chronic diseases and their risk factors among adults in Hebei in 2018, 7 711 permanent residents aged ≥18 years were selected as the research subjects. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the comorbidity of dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes and lifestyle in adult residents. Results A total of 7 711 subjects aged ≥18 years were included in 2018. The comorbidity rates of hypertension and dyslipidemia, diabetes and dyslipidemia, and hypertension and diabetes were 16.88%, 7.91%, and 8.13%, respectively. The comorbidity rate of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia was 22.65%. These comorbidity rates increased with age and BMI. Multivariate logistic regression results showed that male, age, overweight/obesity, physical inactivity, daily sedentary behavior time ≥5 hours, and sleep problems were risk factors for the comorbidity of the "three highs". Conclusion The prevalence of the "three highs" comorbidities is relatively high in Hebei Province, and there are multiple common risk factors. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and implementing comprehensive prevention and control measures are the key to improving the health level of residents.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate and summarize the best evidence on the use of bedside ultrasound by ICU nurses to assess the lungs of adult critically ill patients, and to provide a reference for clinical practice and the construction of related processes and protocols.Methods:Based on the "6S" pyramid model, a computer-based search was conducted on relevant computer decision support system, guideline networks, professional associations, and domestic and international databases, the search time limit was from the establishment of the database to June 5, 2024. The panel members who had been trained in the evidence-based course evaluated the included literature with corresponding tools, extracted evidence according to the theme.Results:Twenty-five papers were finally included, including 6 guidelines, 8 expert consensus, 2 expert opinion, 3 clinical decision-making, 3 systematic evaluation, and 3 randomized controlled trials. A total of 35 pieces of evidence were formed from 4 aspects, including personnel training, operation specifications, clinical application (including dyspnea screening, intervention implementation, efficacy evaluation, diaphragm function evaluation) and precautions.Conclusions:The best evidence for lung assessment and intervention in adult critically ill patients based on bedside ultrasound can provide a reference for the adjustment and decision-making of nursing measures for adult critically ill patients. In the subsequent process of evidence transformation, attention should be paid to combining clinical practice and the joint cooperation of medical staff.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and influencing factors of adults in Hebei Province, and provide scientific evidence for the development of comprehensive CKD prevention and control strategies.Methods:In China Adult Chronic Disease and Nutrition Surveillance in Hebei in 2018, a total of 7 562 permanent residents aged ≥18 years were selected by multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling from 13 surveillance points in Hebei for questionnaire survey, medical examination and laboratory test.Results:A total of 1 067 CKD patients were detected in the adults aged ≥18 years in this survey, with a weighted prevalence rate of 12.10%. The results of multivariate analysis showed that the daily total static behavior time ( OR=1.07, 95% CI: 1.04-1.09), living in rural area ( OR=1.50, 95% CI: 1.14-1.97), coal use ( OR=1.37, 95% CI: 1.16-1.61), coal gas/liquefied gas/natural gas/biogas use ( OR=2.92, 95% CI: 2.40-3.54) and solar energy/electricity use ( OR=1.75, 95% CI: 1.36-2.25), insufficient fruit intake ( OR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.06-1.83), insufficient physical activity ( OR=1.35, 95% CI: 1.11-1.64), suffering from hypertension ( OR=1.80, 95% CI: 1.44-2.24) and suffering from diabetes ( OR=1.77, 95% CI: 1.27-2.45) were risk factors for CKD in adults in Hebei. High education level ( OR=0.41, 95% CI: 0.19-0.91), excessive drinking ( OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.28-0.99), central obesity ( OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.58-0.97), history of allergic diseases ( OR=0.44, 95% CI: 0.27-0.72) were protective factors for CKD. Conclusions:The prevalence of CKD in adults in Hebei was relatively high, especially in those who had too long average daily static behavior, lived in rural area, used coal, gas/liquefied gas/natural gas/biogas, solar energy/electricity, had inadequate intake of fruits, lacked physical activity and suffered from hypertension and diabetes. It is necessary to pay attention to the early prevention and treatment of CKD, strengthen the health education about healthy lifestyle and improve the management of patients with chronic disease, such as hypertension and diabetes, to further reduce the risk for CKD.
