Objective: Miniscrews are commonly utilized as temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in cases of maxillary protrusion and premolar extraction. This study aimed to investigate the effects and potential side effects of two conventional miniscrew configurations on the maxillary incisors. Methods: Eighty-two adult patients with maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion who had undergone bilateral first premolar extraction were retrospectively divided into three groups: non-TAD, two posterior miniscrews only (P-TADs), and two anterior and two posterior miniscrews combined (AP-TADs). Cone-beam computed tomography was used to evaluate the maxillary central incisors (U1). Results: The APTADs group had significantly greater U1 intrusion (1.99 ± 2.37 mm, n = 50) and less retroclination (1.70° ± 8.80°) compared to the P-TADs (–0.07 ± 1.65 mm and 9.45° ± 10.68°, n = 60) and non-TAD group (0.30 ± 1.61 mm and 1.91° ± 9.39°, n = 54).However, the AP-TADs group suffered from significantly greater apical root resorption (ARR) of U1 (2.69 ± 1.38 mm) than the P-TADs (1.63 ± 1.46 mm) and non-TAD group (0.89 ± 0.97 mm). Notably, the incidence of grade IV ARR was 16.6% in the AP-TADs group, significantly higher than the rates observed in the P-TADs (6.7%) and non-TAD (1.9%) groups. Multiple regression analysis revealed that after excluding tooth movement factors, the AP-TADs configuration resulted in an additional 0.5 mm of ARR compared with the P-TADs group. Conclusions In cases of maxillary protrusion and premolar extraction, the use of combined anterior and posterior miniscrews enhances incisor intrusion and minimizes torque loss of the maxillary incisors. However, this approach results in more severe ARR, likely due to the increased apical movement and composite force exerted.

BACKGROUND:The imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation in microgravity environments leads to significant bone loss in astronauts.Current research indicates that bone loss under microgravity conditions is the result of the combined effects of various cells,tissues,and systems. OBJECTIVE:To review different biological effects of microgravity on various cells,tissues,or systems,and summarize the mechanisms by which microgravity leads to the development of osteoporosis. METHODS:Databases such as PubMed,Web of Science,and the Cochrane Database were searched for relevant literature from 2000 to 2023.The inclusion criteria were all articles related to tissue engineering studies and basic research on osteoporosis caused by microgravity.Ultimately,85 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In microgravity environment,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells tend to differentiate more into adipocytes rather than osteoblasts,and hematopoietic stem cells in this environment are more inclined to differentiate into osteoclasts,reducing differentiation into the erythroid lineage.At the same time,microgravity inhibits the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts,promotes apoptosis of osteoblasts,alters cell morphology,and reduces the mineralization capacity of osteoblasts.Microgravity significantly increases the number and activity of osteoclasts.Microgravity also hinders the differentiation of osteoblasts into osteocytes and promotes the apoptosis of osteocytes.(2)In a microgravity environment,the body experiences changes such as skeletal muscle atrophy,microvascular remodeling,bone microcirculation disorders,and endocrine disruption.These changes lead to mechanical unloading in the bone microenvironment,insufficient blood perfusion,and calcium cycle disorders,which significantly impact the development of osteoporosis.(3)At present,the mechanism by which microgravity causes osteoporosis is relatively complex.A deeper study of these physiological mechanisms is crucial to ensuring the health of astronauts during long-term space missions,and provides a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.

ObjectiveTo explore the changes in volatile components， total polysaccharides， enzyme activity， and chromaticity value of Myristicae Semen Koji（MSK） during the fermentation process， and conduct correlation analysis. MethodsBased on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS）， the changes of volatile components in MSK at different fermentation times were identified. The phenol sulfuric acid method， dinitrosalicylic acid method（DNS）， and carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt method（CMC-Na） were used to investigate the total polysaccharide content， amylase activity， and cellulase activity during the fermentation process. Visual analysis technology was used to explore the changes in chromaticity values， revealing the fermentation process of MSK and the dynamic changes of various measurement indicators， partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA） was used to explore the differential compounds of MSK at different fermentation degrees， and Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between volatile components of MSK and total polysaccharides， enzyme activity， and chromaticity values. ResultsA total of 60 volatile compounds were identified from MSK， the relative contents of components such as （+）-α-pinene， β-phellandrene， β-pinene， （+）-limonene， and p-cymene obviously increased， while the relative contents of components such as safrole， methyl isoeugenol， methyleugenol， myristicin， and elemicin significantly decreased. During the fermentation process， the total polysaccharide content showed an upward trend， while the activities of amylase and cellulase showed an initial increase followed by a decrease， and reached their maximum value at 40 h. the overall brightness（L^*） and total color difference（ΔE^*） gradually increased， while the changes in red-green value（a^*） and yellow-blue value（b^*） were not obvious. PLS-DA results showed that MSK could be clearly distinguished at different fermentation times， and 13 differential biomarkers were screened out. Pearson correlation analysis results showed that the contents of α-terpinene， β-phellandrene， methyleugenol， β-cubebene and myristic acid had an obvious correlation with chromaticity values. ConclusionAfter fermentation， the volatile components， total polysaccharides， amylase activity， and cellulase activity of MSK undergo significant changes， and there is a clear correlation between them and chromaticity values， which reveals the dynamic changes in the fermentation process and related indicators of MSK， laying a foundation for the quality control.

Objective To conduct bibliometric visualization analyses of the literature domestic and overseas on active surveillance of post-marketing safety of drugs,aiming to display the current status and trend of hotspots in this field and to provide references for future research and the improvement of the Chinese management system of active surveillance.Methods The English and Chinese literature on active surveillance of post-marketing safety of drugs were searched in Web of Science and CNKI respectively and imported into CiteSpace 6.3.R2 software for the analysis of the number of publications,authors,institutions,and national cooperative networks,and the analysis of keyword co-occurrence,clustering and emergence.Results 415 Chinese and 676 English literature were included,with an overall increasing trend in annual publication volume.The author collaboration network of Chinese literature was smaller than that of English literature,and the partnership network was sparse,with no strong centralized institution.Domestic drug regulatory agencies played an important role in the field,while drug companies'monitoring research on their own products was still relatively scarce.The research topic covered active surveillance systems,technical method research,and drug safety active surveillance practice research for specific drugs and diseases.Conclusion Countries worldwide have widely considered active surveillance of post-marketing drug safety.The heat of research activities in China has shown a significant growth trend.However,there is still a significant gap compared with the international frontiers.Further cooperation needs to be strengthened to promote the improvement of the active surveillance management system in China.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of flipped classroom combined with problem-based learning (PBL) on the standardized training for perioperative beside echocardiography.Methods:A total of 64 second-year standardized training students from the Department of Anesthesiology at Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, were selected between January 2021 and June 2022 and assigned to control group ( n=32) and test group ( n=32) using a random number table method. Control group employed the traditional teaching model, and test group utilized the flipped classroom combined with PBL. After a 3-month period of teaching standard views and hemodynamic evaluation of bedside echocardiography, the comprehensive theoretical and clinical practice scores (a score of≥80 was considered excellent or good) were compared between the two groups. Additionally, a questionnaire was distributed to assess students′ self-directed learning ability and initiative, interest in learning, efficiency in mastering professional knowledge, satisfaction with teaching, communication and collaboration skills, and clinical thinking ability. Results:Compared with control group, the students in test group showed significant improvements in both comprehensive theoretical ([87 ± 8] vs [80 ± 8]) and clinical practical ([86 ± 8] vs [78 ± 8]) echocardiography scores( P<0.05 or 0.01).The excellent or good rate for comprehensive theoretical scores (88% vs 47%) and clinical practice scores (84% vs 50%) was significantly higher in test group than in control group( P<0.05 or 0.01).A total of 64 questionnaires were distributed, and all of them were returned, yielding a response rate of 100%. The students in test group demonstrated enhanced self-directed learning ability and initiative (94% vs 69%), increased interest in learning (91% vs 66%), improved efficiency in mastering professional knowledge (97% vs 75%), greater satisfaction with teaching (94% vs 62%), enhanced communication and collaboration skills (84% vs 62%), and improved clinical thinking ability (88% vs 59%) compared to control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The combination of a flipped classroom and PBL produces better effect than traditional teaching methods when used for standardized training for perioperative bedside echocardiography.

Objective To evaluate the effects of total intravenous anesthesia on the circadian rhythms in the patients undergoing cardiac transcatheter closure.Methods Thirty patients undergoing cardiac transcathe-ter closure under elective intravenous anesthesia were included in this study.Paired t-tests were performed to com-pare the mRNA levels of the genes encoding circadian locomotor output cycles kaput(CLOCK),brain and mus-cle ARNT-1 like protein-1(BMAL1),cryptochrome1(CRY1),and period circadian clock 2(PER2),the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire(MCTQ)score,and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score be-fore and after anesthesia.Multiple stepwise regression analysis was performed to screen the factors influencing sleep chronotype and PSQI total score one week after surgery.Results The postoperative mRNA level of CLOCK was higher[1.38±1.23 vs.1.90±1.47;MD(95％CI):0.52(0.20-0.84),t=3.327,P=0.002]and the postoperative mRNA levels of CRY1[1.56±1.50 vs.1.13±0.98;MD(95％CI):-0.43(-0.81--0.05),t=-2.319,P=0.028]and PER2[0.82±0.63 vs.0.50±0.31;MD(95％CI):-0.33(-0.53--0.12),t=-3.202,P=0.003]were lower than the preoperative levels.One week after surgery,the pa-tients presented advanced sleep chronotype[3:03±0:59 vs.2:42±0:37;MD(95％CI):-21(-40--1),t=-2.172,P=0.038],shortened sleep latency[(67±64)min vs.(37±21)min;MD(95％CI):-30.33(-55.28--5.39),t=-2.487,P=0.019],lengthened sleep duration[(436±83)min vs.(499±83)min;MD(95％CI):62.80(26.93-98.67),t=3.581,P=0.001],increased sleep efficiency[(87.59±10.35)％vs.(92.98±4.27)％;MD(95％CI):5.39(1.21-9.58),t=2.636,P=0.013],decreased sleep quality score[1.13±0.78 vs.0.80±0.71;MD(95％CI):-0.33(-0.62--0.05),t=-2.408,P=0.023],and declined PSQI total score[6.60±3.17 vs.4.03±2.58;MD(95％CI):-2.57(-3.87--1.27),t=-4.039,P＜0.001].Body mass index(BMI)(B=-227.460,SE=95.475,t=-2.382,P=0.025),anesthesia duration(B=-47.079,SE=18.506,t=-2.544,P=0.017),and mRNA level of PER2(B=2815.804,SE=1080.183,t=2.607,P=0.015)collectively influenced the sleep chronotype,and the amount of anesthesia medicine(B=0.067,SE=0.028,t=2.385,P=0.024)independently influenced the PSQI one week after surgery.Conclusions Total intravenous anesthe-sia can improve sleep habits by advancing sleep chronotype.BMI,anesthesia duration,and mRNA level of PER2 collectively influence sleep chronotype one week after surgery.The amount of anesthesia medicine independently influences the PSQI total score one week after surgery.
