Patients with periodontal disease often require combined periodontal-orthodontic interventions to restore periodontal health, function, and aesthetics, ensuring both patient satisfaction and long-term stability. Managing these patients involving orthodontic tooth movement can be particularly challenging due to compromised periodontal soft and hard tissues, especially in severe cases. Therefore, close collaboration between orthodontists and periodontists for comprehensive diagnosis and sequential treatment, along with diligent patient compliance throughout the entire process, is crucial for achieving favorable treatment outcomes. Moreover, long-term orthodontic retention and periodontal follow-up are essential to sustain treatment success. This expert consensus, informed by the latest clinical research and practical experience, addresses clinical considerations for orthodontic treatment of periodontal patients, delineating indications, objectives, procedures, and principles with the aim of providing clear and practical guidance for clinical practitioners.

Objective To investigate the value of fragmented QRS complex(fQRS)in the electro-cardiogram,heart rate variability(HRV)and LVEF in evaluating the prognosis in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 59 DCM pa-tients admitted in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 2020 to December 2023.According to the occurrence of MACE during 6-month follow-up period,they were classified into a poor prognosis group(26 cases)and a good prognosis group(33 cases).Clin-ical baseline data,positive rate of fQRS,HRV and LVEF were compared between the two groups.Time-domain measurements of HRV included standard deviation of normal NN intervals(SDNN),standard deviation of the averages of NN intervals in all 5 min segments of the entire recording(SDANN),mean of the standard deviation of NN intervals for all 5 min segments of the entire recording(SDNN index),root mean square of standard deviation of NN intervals(r-MSSD)and HRV triangular index.Spearman/Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlation of prognosis of DCM with positive rate of fQRS,HRV and LVEF.ROC curve was drawn to analyze the efficiency of fQRS,HRV and LVEF in predicting the prognosis of DCM.Results The poor prognosis group exhibited significantly higher positive rate of fQRS and obvi-ously reduced SDNN,SDANN,SDNN index,r-MSSD,triangular index and LVEF when compared with the good prognosis group(P＜0.01).Correlation analysis suggested that poor prognosis of DCM was positively correlated with the positive rate of fQRS(P＜0.01),and negatively with SDNN,SDANN,SDNN index,r-MSSD,triangular index and LVEF(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUC value of above indicators in turn in predicting the prognosis of DCM was 0.718,0.7 56,0.7 62,0.807,0.858,0.805 and 0.747,respectively,and the AUC value of their combination was 0.980(P＜0.01).Conclusion fQRS,HRV and LVEF have important cor-relation with poor prognosis of DCM patients.Their combination can be used as an effective mark-er for clinical evaluation and prediction of poor prognosis of DCM.
