In order to promote the development of hair transplantation, particularly the establishment of standards, the Hair Transplantation Expert Group of Plastic and Aesthetic National Medical Quality Control Center invited experts in the field of hair transplantation across China and formed a draft of the Expert Consensus on Standard Terminology for Hair Transplantation based on the collation of relevant literature and monographs. By combining Delphi methodology and consensus meetings, the expert group conducted several rounds of consultations on issues such as follicular unit anatomy, harvesting, dissection, and implantation, ultimately presenting 54 terminologies. This consensus considers the original Chinese and English meanings as well as the professional characteristics of terms used in hair transplantation, highlights the unique features and advantages of hair transplantation, and preserves its essence while promoting innovation, with the hope of providing valuable reference for clinical researchers engaged in hair transplantation both domestically and internationally, and better facilitating the standardization and advancement of the field.

The imbalance of microbiota is related to various diseases in the human body,and the gut,as the largest microbial habitat in the human body,is closely related to the oral microbial environment.The oral microbiota can migrate to the intestinal mucosa with the digestive system.At the same time,microbial transmission from the gut to the mouth can also occur through interpersonal and com-munity transmission.Microbial transmission between the mouth and intestines can shape or reshape the microbial ecosystem in the two habitats,ultimately regulating the pathogenesis of the disease.The dysbiosis of the oral-gut microbiota axis can have a significant impact on related diseases such as respiratory diseases.This article reviews the research status of the relationship between oral-gut microbes and respiratory diseases.

The oral and maxillofacial region comprises a variety of organs made up of multiple soft and hard tissue, which are anatomically vulnerable to the pathogenic factors of trauma, inflammation, and cancer. The studies of this intricate entity have been long-termly challenged by a lack of versatile preclinical models. Recently, the advancements in the organoid industry have provided novel strategies to break through this dilemma. Here, we summarize the existing biological and engineering approaches that were employed to generate oral and maxillofacial organoids. Then, we detail the use of modified co-culture methods, such as cell cluster co-inoculation and air-liquid interface culture technology to reconstitute the vascular network and immune microenvironment in assembled organoids. We further retrospect the existing oral and maxillofacial assembled organoids and their potential to recapitulate the homeostasis in parental tissues such as tooth, salivary gland, and mucosa. Finally, we discuss how the next-generation organoids may benefit to regenerative and precision medicine for treatment of oral-maxillofacial illness.

Polymorphism refers to the simultaneous and frequent existence of two or more discontinuous variants or genotypes or alleles in a biological population, also known as genetic polymorphisms or genes Polymorphism. This gene polymorphism may have a certain degree of influence on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the drug. The study of genomics plays an important role in realizing personalized, patient-oriented precision medicine treatment. Population model analysis is to use a modeling method to quantitatively describe the correlation and variability between pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters and individual characteristics and to quantify the impact of covariates. At present, this method has been widely used. This paper systematically introduces the application examples of using the population model approach to assess the effects of genetic polymorphisms on the drug PK/PD.

As the second most common cause of death in the world, cancer has become a persistent public health challenge. The incidence and mortality in different countries and regions or of multiple cancer types are significantly different, which is closely related to economic development level, lifestyle and environmental factors. A large number of epidemiological studies have focused on cancer burden, epidemic pattern, etiology and prevention, which is very important for the government to formulate cancer prevention policies based on medical evidence and protect population health. Therefore, based on the latest epidemiological publications, this paper reviews the incidence and mortality of cancer as well as the time trend in major countries and areas.
