Gastric carcinoma(GC),a highly prevalent malignant tumor globally,often progresses to advanced stages by the time of diagnosis due to its insidious clinical presentation,thereby significantly reducing therapeutic effectiveness and patient quality of life.Accurate screening and histopathological characterization of early gastric cancer(EGC)are essential for developing individualized treatment approaches.Although endoscopic techniques remain the gold standard for early GC detection,their diagnostic accuracy is largely dependent on the operator's skill,a challenge that current artificial intelligence(AI)-assisted innovations aim to address by stan-dardizing diagnostic procedures.Deep learning(DL)-based computer vision systems have demonstrated remarkable performance in identifying subtle EGC features,not only improving lesion detection sensitivity but also enabling automated assessment of key pathological indicators.These technological advances offer objective,visualized diag-nostic support for clinical decision-making.This review provides a systematic overview of recent developments in DL applications for endoscopic image analysis of EGC and evaluates their potential for clinical integration.

Objective:To investigate the effect of head model in improving the photographic ability of interns during the photographic training of oral facial image in pediatric dentistry.Methods:A total of 60 interns of stomatology school affiliated to Xinjiang Medical University were randomly divided into head model training group, mutual training group and clinical probation group for photographic training. After the training, the interns in the three groups were evaluated for the photographic time, the level of photos, etc., by the training test and satisfaction level of volunteers. Besides, the head model training group was conducted by questionnaire survey. One-way analysis of variance and least significant difference analysis were used to analyze the data between groups by SPSS 17.0 software.Results:There was no statistical difference between the head model training group and the mutual training group in photographic time and level of photos, while both of them were much better in the head model training group and mutual training group than in the clinical probation group ( P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the head model training group and the mutual training group in the satisfaction level, while that was lower in the head model training group than in the clinical probation group ( P<0.05). According to the questionnaire survey, most interns in the head model training group acknowledged its effects. Conclusion:The use of head model can help improve the oral photographic ability, and promote the teaching effect and efficiency in photographic training.

Objective:To explore the effects of fire therapy combined with moxibustion nursing on pain, quality of life and self-efficacy in osteoporosis patients.Methods:From October 2018 to October 2019, we selected 120 osteoporosis patients admitted to Xi'an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine as research objects by convenience sampling. All patients were divided into two groups with the method of random number table. A total of 60 cases in control group were given routine nursing care, while 60 cases in experimental group were treated with fire therapy combined with moxibustion nursing on this basis. Pain, quality of life and self-efficacy of two groups before and after nursing were compared with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) , World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF) and the Chinese version of Osteoporosis Self-efficacy Scale.Results:After intervention, the score of VAS of patients in experimental group was (4.01±0.50) lower than that (4.92±0.53) in control group with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) ; the total score of WHOQOL-BREF of experimental group was (80.09±17.65) higher than that (63.08±17.42) of control group also with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) ; scores of exercise self-efficacy and calcium intake self-efficacy of experimental group were (83.98±12.28) and (88.11±10.33) respectively all higher than those [ (70.10±12.12) and (73.36±11.16) ]of control group with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Fire therapy combined with moxibustion nursing can help improve the pain of osteoporosis patients, and promote their quality of life and self-efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo observe the expression of wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 5A (Wnt5A)/receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2 (Ror2) signal in the dental follicle cells during the normal eruption of the teeth as well as to explore the relationship between the expression of dental follicle cells and the formation of mature osteoclasts and eruption of the teeth.

METHODSThe mandibulars of 1-13 d old SD rats were separated to observe the growth and develop-ment of the teeth and alveolar bone through hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. Ror2 and Wnt5A expressions in rat dental follicle were also observed through immunohistochemistry. Dental follicle cells from the lower first intact molar germs of 5-6-day old SD rats were separated and cultured.

RESULTSOn the second day after birth, the dental follicle began to differentiate into periodontal tissues, but no obvious changes were observed in the alveolar bone one to three days after birth. On the fourth day, the number of osteoclasts increased significantly. The results of immunohistochemistry showed that Wnt5A was not significantly expressed in rat dental follicle tissues before the fourth day, but positive expression was expressed in the next day and continued to express to thirteenth days. Ror2 was expressed in the rat dental follicle at postnatal days 1-3, but weak expression was found in days 4-13.

CONCLUSIONSWnt5A and Ror2 expressions in the process of tooth eruption have specific time distributions, suggesting that these expressions may participate in the regulation of the eruption of the teeth.

BACKGROUND:Stable and efficient labeling of dental pulp stem cel s in vitro is most important in tracer technique, which is also the basis of tooth regeneration in vivo.
OBJECTIVE:To determine the optimal condition and method for transfection of stem cel s derived from rat dental pulp with green fluorescent protein infection by lentiviral vector and to determine whether green fluorescent protein-labeled dental pulp stem cel s maintain their stem cel properties.
METHODS:Rat dental pulp stem cel s were obtained by modified enzyme digestion method, to identify the immune phenotype and differentiation potential. Dental pulp stem cel s were infected with green fluorescent protein by lentiviral vector for 24 and 48 hours at different multiplicity of infection (MOI) (5, 10, 25, 50 and 100). The infection efficiency and fluorescence intensity were analyzed by inverted fluorescent microscopy. The clonal and proliferation ability, cel cycle and the mineralization potential were compared before and after transfection. Based on those mentioned above, we could evaluate the influence of infection on their biological characteristics.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flow cytometry results showed that rat dental pulp stem cel s expressed STRO-1 and CD146 but not CD34 or CD45. The dental pulp stem cel s could differentiate into osteoblasts and
adipocytes when cultured in specific medium for each lineage differentiation. The highest efficiency of infection and strongest fluorescence expression appeared at 48 hours of infection and MOI 50. There were no significant differences in growth ability, cel colony formation rate and cel cycle before and after transfection (P>0.05). And the alkaline phosphatase expressed positively. Infection for 48 hours at MOI 50 is optimal for transfecting dental pulp stem cel s with green fluorescent protein by a lentiviral vector, thereby providing reliable tracer method for the study of rat dental pulp stem cel s in vivo.

cryopreservation periodontal tissue. METHODS:Periodontal tissue was scraped from healthy human teeth and divided them into three equal parts:fresh group, harvesting periodontal ligament stem cel s from fresh tissue;5%dimethyl sulfoxide group, 5%dimethyl sulfoxide added into the cryopreservation system;10%dimethyl sulfoxide group, 10%dimethyl sulfoxide added into the cryopreservation system. One month later, periodontal ligament stem cel s were extracted from the cryopreserved periodontal ligament from the latter two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the time that cel s swam out of tissue mass and cel harvest amount, the 5%dimethyl sulfoxide group was inferior to the fresh group but better than the 10%dimethyl sulfoxide group (P<0.05). No differences were found among the three groups in the fol owing aspects (P>0.05):colony formation rate of passage 1 periodontal ligament stem cel s, cel survival rate, proliferation ability of passage 3 periodontal ligament stem cel s, cel growth curve and surface marker expression of periodontal ligament stem cel s. The results suggest that the 5%dimethyl sulfoxide added cryopreserved system for periodontal ligament tissue cannot only shorten the time of periodontal ligament stem cel s amplification in vitro, ensure cel harvest and maintain basic cel ular biological characteristics, but also reduce the total amount of the dimethyl sulfoxide and the direct damage to the cel s caused by repeatedly frozen cel s, thereby providing a more secure guarantee for the future implementation of clinical transplantation therapy. So, the 5%dimethyl sulfoxide added cryopreserved system may be the new selection for donor tissue storage.
