Objective To systematically evaluate the effect of Xingnaojing injection on the levels of inflammatory factors in patients with acute ischemic stroke （AIS） as an adjuvant therapy for intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase， and to investigate the neuroprotective significance of Xingnaojing injection. Methods Chinese databases （CNKI， Wanfang Data， and VIP） and English databases （PubMed， Embase， and the Cochrane Library） were searched for studies on the serum levels of inflammatory factors in the treatment of AIS published up to August 2024， and the patients were divided into control group and experimental group based on the method of randomized controlled trial （RCT）. The patients in the control group received intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase， while those in the experimental group received intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase combined with Xingnaojing injection. The Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias Tool was used to assess the methodological quality of the studies included for analysis， and RevMan 5.3 software was used to conduct a meta-analysis on NIHSS， response rate， C-reactive protein （CRP）， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-8， IL-1， and adverse reactions for the experimental group and the control group. Results A total of 19 RCTs were included， involving 1 711 patients （856 in the experimental group and 855 in the control group）. The meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences between the two groups in NIHSS （SMD=-2.12，95%CI -2.74 to -1.50， P<0.001）， response rate （OR=5.22， 95%CI 3.44‒7.91， P<0.001）， CRP （SMD=-1.27， 95%CI -1.74 to -0.79， P<0.001），TNF-α（SMD=-2.91， 95%CI -3.74 to -2.08， P<0.001）， IL-6 （SMD=-6.74， 95%CI -9.06 to -4.41， P<0.001），IL-8 （SMD=-4.85，95%CI -6.49 to -3.20， P<0.001）， IL-1 （SMD=-4.89，95%CI -6.86 to -2.92， P<0.001）， and adverse reactions （OR=0.41， 95%CI 0.26-0.64， P<0.001）. Conclusion As an adjuvant therapy for thrombolysis with alteplase， Xingnaojing injection significantly reduces the levels of inflammatory factors in AIS patients and exerts a neuroprotective effect on brain cells， with a high response rate and few adverse reactions， which provides a safe and reliable reference for clinical practice.

Enamel demineralization, the formation of white spot lesions, is a common issue in clinical orthodontic treatment. The appearance of white spot lesions not only affects the texture and health of dental hard tissues but also impacts the health and aesthetics of teeth after orthodontic treatment. The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of white spot lesions that occur throughout the orthodontic treatment process involve multiple dental specialties. This expert consensus will focus on providing guiding opinions on the management and prevention of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment, advocating for proactive prevention, early detection, timely treatment, scientific follow-up, and multidisciplinary management of white spot lesions throughout the orthodontic process, thereby maintaining the dental health of patients during orthodontic treatment.

The prevalence of Class III malocclusion varies among different countries and regions. The populations from Southeast Asian countries (Chinese and Malaysian) showed the highest prevalence rate of 15.8%, which can seriously affect oral function, facial appearance, and mental health. As anterior crossbite tends to worsen with growth, early orthodontic treatment can harness growth potential to normalize maxillofacial development or reduce skeletal malformation severity, thereby reducing the difficulty and shortening the treatment cycle of later-stage treatment. This is beneficial for the physical and mental growth of children. Therefore, early orthodontic treatment for Class III malocclusion is particularly important. Determining the optimal timing for early orthodontic treatment requires a comprehensive assessment of clinical manifestations, dental age, and skeletal age, and can lead to better results with less effort. Currently, standardized treatment guidelines for early orthodontic treatment of Class III malocclusion are lacking. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the etiology, clinical manifestations, classification, and early orthodontic techniques for Class III malocclusion, along with systematic discussions on selecting early treatment plans. The purpose of this expert consensus is to standardize clinical practices and improve the treatment outcomes of Class III malocclusion through early orthodontic treatment.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 in Fujian Province from the 49th week of 2022 to the 5th week of 2023,after further optimization of China's COVID-19 prevention and control measures on December 7,2022(the 49th week of 2022),this study used multi-dimensional surveillance data to dynamically assess population infection levels and their changing trends.The aim of the study was to provide a scientific basis for early warning of epidemic risk,medical resource allocation,and evalu-ation of socio-economic impact.A multi-source data surveillance system was constructed,encompassing surveillance of fever clinics at medical institutions(weekly collection of visits,positive nucleic acid and antigen test results,inpatients,and severe cases in sec-ondary or above hospitals),population nucleic acid test monitoring(weekly person-times and positivity rates of single-tube tests from the provincial system),sentinel hospital monitoring(weekly proportion of influenza-like illness visits at 18 sentinel hospitals and re-lated viral testing data),and monitoring of novel coronavirus variants(weekly systematic collection of genomic sequences of local and imported cases).Line charts were plotted weekly,and time series analysis,molecular epidemiological methods,and an improved SEIAR model were used to simulate epidemic spread.During the study period,the COVID-19 epidemic in Fujian Province exhibited three distinct stages.In the infection peak stage(52nd week of 2022),the provincial fever clinic visits reached 606 893 person-times,and a 49.2%positivity rate in population single-tube nucleic acid tests and 63.8%positivity rate in sentinel hospital monitoring were observed.In the medical load peak stage(2nd week of 2023),274 460 inpatients and 28 487 severe cases were recorded.In the epidemic decline stage(4th to 5th weeks of 2023),fever clinic visits decreased by 96.3%with respect to the peak,the single-tube nucleic acid test positivity rate decreased to 6.3%,and the sentinel hospital COVID-19 nucleic acid test positivity rate was 6.4%.All 508 sequenced local cases were Omicron variants,predominantly BA.5.2 and its sub-lineages(67.4%).Among 56 imported se-quenced cases,BA.5.2 and its sub-lineages accounted for 50.0%,and 16.1%comprised nine variants of interest including XBB and BQ.The model predicted the infection peak in the 52nd week of 2022,whereas the hospitalization peak lagged by approximately 10.6 days.Multi-source data monitoring revealed a three-stage development of the COVID-19 epidemic in Fujian.The BA.5.2 strain was dominant during the epidemic.The combination of multi-source monitoring data and modeling provides important references for epi-demic prevention and control,and highlights the need to improve the monitoring system in follow-up.

Objective To analyze the reverse mechano-electric effect of the layered structure of articular cartilage and its influencing factors.Methods The cartilage samples were classified according to their physiological thickness(approximately 0.4 mm for the upper layer,1 mm for the middle layer,and 0.6 mm for the lower layer).Through a non-contact external electric field testing method,how different influencing factors affected the reverse mechano-electric effect of articular cartilage was analyzed.Results When the electric field spacing decreased,water content increased,and in vitro time decreased,the displacement of normal layered cartilage in a non-contact electric field increased by 18,10,15 μm,respectively.In the case of simulated arthritis defects,as the defect depth and radius increased,the overall deviation deflection of articular cartilage gradually decreased by about 7 μm.Conclusions The three-layer cartilage differed in their reverse mechano-electricity effects,showing the greatest deflection in the middle layer at 90％water content,under 7 mm electric field spacing,and after 12 hours ex vivo.
