Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Poly(dimethyl siloxane)(PDMS)is suitable for the fabrication of space cell culture chips.It is necessary to perform highly stable hydrophilic modification to promote cell adhesion on PDMS surface.We modified PDMS surface by oxygen plasma treatment combining with physical adsorption in this article.PDMS,which was treated with oxygen plasma and sequentially coated with Poly-L-lysine or collagen(PLL-ox-PDMS,COL-ox-PDMS)with various solution concentration and kept in different environmental conditions,were characterized by contact angle and surface energy measurements,and atomic force microscopy(AFM).Cell growth conditions on bare PDMS and modified PDMS were compared,and the numbers of live cells cultured for 1-3 days were evaluated.Experimental results indicate that higher solution concentration and low storage temperature benefit the hydrophilicity stability.The contact angles of PLL-ox-PDMS stored in 4℃and COL-ox-PDMS were close to 60°and 65°on day 25 and 14,respectively.Both modified PDMS surfaces are suitable for cell adhesion and proliferation,and no cell layer falls offin 10 days.The modification method is especially suitable for applications such as medium and long term space cell culture.

Objective:To examine the therapeutic effects of drug-coated balloon (DCB) and bare metal stent (BMS) on primary femoropopliteal disease (FPAD) in the real world.Methods:This was a retrospective analysis of single-center follow-up results at 12,24,and 36 months of patients with FPAD lesions that were treated with DCB and BMS at Department of Aortic and Vascular Surgery, Fu Wai Hospital.One-to-one propensity score matching(PSM) was performed to balance the covariance between DCB group (137 cases) and BMS group (100 cases). Freedom from clinically driven target lesion reintervention rate(fCD-TLR) was determined by Kaplan-Meier curve.Log-rank test was used to compare the rates of fCD-TLR between DCB and BMS groups at 12,24,36 months post-operation.Results:After PSM, there were both 71 patients in each group,aged (68.0±9.6) years(range: 46 to 90 years) and (68.8±7.3) years(range: 48 to 87 years),lesion lengths were (119.6±14.2)mm(range:40 to 380 mm) and (110.8±13.1)mm(range:40 to 400 mm). The median follow-up period were 24.3 months (range:5.8 to 55.1 months).There was no death,amputation or reintervention within the 30 days after operation.The rates of fCD-TLR for DCB group at 12,24 and 36 months were 97.2%,85.9%,69.1%, and 95.8%,83.1%,59.2% for BMS group.There was no statistical difference between the two groups by Log-rank test ( P=0.551). Conclusion:DCB and BMS can both maintain favorable clinical effects in FPAD patients at 12,24,36 months post-operation.

Lycopene plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis pathway of 2-methyl-derythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) and mevalonic acid (MVA). It is a representative product of isoprenoid family, and a typical product of multi-enzyme catalytic reaction in organism. In this paper, we first introduced the general regulation methods in multi-enzyme synthesis reaction, including the construction of multi gene co-expression plasmid, gene order regulation, promoter and ribosome binding site regulation, gene knockout and replacement, aiming at the optimization strategies of multi-enzyme catalytic reaction in lycopene synthesis pathway. Meanwhile, we introduced several new regulation methods in multi-enzyme reaction, including multi-fragment assembly technology, artificial scaffold self-assembly methods and so on. At last, we summarized the application of these multi-enzyme regulation methods in lycopene synthesis. These methods provide a great inspiration and research foundation for the construction of lycopene-producing strains with high yield.

Objective To observe the real-time effect of retaining needle at Lingtai (GV 10) and Shendao (GV 11) on ST-T segment on cardiogram in patients with angina pectoris of coronary heart disease (CHD).Method Thirty patients with angina pectoris of CHD who received acupuncture at Lingtai (GV 10) and Shendao (GV 11) were divided into group A with needles retained after insertion of the needles and group B without needles retained. The two groups were observed by using 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) before and after treatment, to compare the ST segment and T wave atⅡ,Ⅲ, avF lead and V4, V5, V6lead before and after treatment.Result After treatment, ST segment atⅡ,Ⅲ, avF lead and V4, V5, V6lead was changed significantly in group A (P<0.05). T wave was significantly changed atⅡ,Ⅲ, avF lead after treatment in group A (P<0.05). T wave at V4, V5, V6 lead was significantly changed after treatment in both groups (P<0.01,P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at Lingtai (GV 10) and Shendao (GV 11) can improve myocardial ischemia in angina pectoris of CHD; compared to acupuncture without needles retained, retaining needles after acupuncture can produce a more significant effect in improving the inferior and anterior myocardial walls and a better real-time effect on ST-T on ECG of angina pectoris of CHD.

This study was aimed to explore the effect of Periplaneta Americana against alcohol-induced liver injury in mice, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the industrial production of P. Americana. Kunming mice were randomly divided into six groups, which were the normal group, model group, positive group, high-, middle-, low-dose of P. Americana groups. Intragastric administration of Tiopronin Enteric-coated Tablets 100 mg·kg-1 was given to the positive group. Intragastric administrations of whole powder of medicine were given to the high-, middle-, low-dose groups with the dosage of 6.667, 3.333, 1.667 g·kg-1, respectively. The drugs were given daily for 10 con-secutive days. After 3h of the 10th day drug administration, intragastric administration of distilled water was given to the normal group, while 14mL·kg-1 of 56℃ Red Star Liquor was given to other groups. No food was given but water for 12h. Blood was collected from the orbit. The ALT, AST and GGT in blood serum of mice were measured. The liver was dissected and liver coefficient was calculated. Histopathological examination was given on liver tissues. The results showed that compared with the normal group, the level of ALT, AST in blood serum of the model group had obvious enhanced (P< 0.01), the level of GGT had obvious enhanced (P< 0.05). Compared with the model group, the level of GGT, AST of the high-, middle-dose group had obvious enhanced (P< 0.05), the level of ALT activity had obvious enhanced (P< 0.01). There were severe liver histopathological damages in mice of the high-, middle-, low-dose group. It was concluded that P. Americana had some side effects in the treatment of alcohol-induced liver injury.

Objective To study the periodontal status and risk factors for periodontitis in periodontitis patients at different ages in wuhan. Methods From January 2007 to March 2008, the cross-sectional survey on periodontal conditions of 493 physical examinees in Wuhan city was carried out with random cluster sampling method. 458 cases of them were in accordance with the inclusive criteria and were stratified into two groups: young and middle-aged adults (aged 30-59 years) and old adults (aged 60 years and over). A case-control study was carried out in the periodontitis cases group (n=280) and the control group (n=178). Database was created by SQSERVER2000 and SPSS11.0 was used for statistical analysis. The relationship of periodontitis with age, gender, nation, educational background, diabetes mellitus, smoking, drinking, mental pressure and oral hygiene habits were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results The prevalence of periodontitis was 61.1% (280/458). Univariate analysis revealed that age, educational background, diabetes mellitus, smoking and oral hygiene habits were related factors for periodontitis (OR:0.44, 2.27, 3.44, 1.75, 9.82, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Meanwhile, multivariate analysis showed that suffering from diabetes mellitu and low educational background were the independent risk factors for periodontitis (OR=2.66, 1.95, all P<0.05). After stratification by age, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was no correlation between diabetes mellitus and periodontitis prevalence in young and middle-aged adults and diabetes mellitus was a risk factor for periodontitis in old adults(OR=6.91, 95%CI: 1.27～37.42). Conclusions There are many risk factors for periodontitis and diabetes plays a major role in the development of periodontitis in old adults.
