Peri-implant keratinized mucosa (PIKM) augmentation refers to surgical procedures aimed at increasing the width of PIKM. Consensus reports emphasize the necessity of maintaining a minimum width of PIKM to ensure long-term peri-implant health. Currently, several surgical techniques have been validated for their effectiveness in increasing PIKM. However, the selection and application of PIKM augmentation methods may present challenges for dental practitioners due to heterogeneity in surgical techniques, variations in clinical scenarios, and anatomical differences. Therefore, clear guidelines and considerations for PIKM augmentation are needed. This expert consensus focuses on the commonly employed surgical techniques for PIKM augmentation and the factors influencing their selection at second-stage surgery. It aims to establish a standardized framework for assessing, planning, and executing PIKM augmentation procedures, with the goal of offering evidence-based guidance to enhance the predictability and success of PIKM augmentation.

As a new type of medical service project, "Internet + nursing service" has become a new trend in the development of nursing. Ningbo area started the exploration of "Internet + nursing service" as early as the end of 2015, and gradually formed the Ningbo model of "government-led, regionalized layout, and online and offline collaborative services, medical professional support, market-based operation". And made the innovative practice of "medical insurance pay at home". By the end of December 2021, there were 6 200 registered nurses on the platform, and a total of 20 993 door-to-door services were provided. 197 medical institutions settled on the platform and carried out 49 home service projects. This paper introduced the exploration experience and practical results of "Internet + nursing service" in Ningbo, and provided reference and reference for the advancement of this work.

Background Occupational pneumoconiosis is the most common occupational disease in Qinghai Province and China. From the perspective of public health, it is important to assess the disease burden using disability-adjusted life years (DALY) and economic losses. Objective To evaluate the disease burden of occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province, and to provide a basis for the formulation and implementation of relevant prevention and control strategies. Methods Based on the registered data, a database of occupational pneumoconiosis cases confirmed and reported in Qinghai Province was established. The survival status and death dateof occupational pneumoconiosis patients from 2015 to 2019 were confirmed by on-site visit, telephone survey, matching search of Death Information Registration and Management System, and consulting other departments. The life loss due to occupational pneumoconiosis from 2015 to 2019 was assessed using DALY as an indicator and data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 (GBD 2019) study. Inpatients with officially diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis from a hospital in Qinghai Province in 2019 were selected as study subjects, the direct economic loss was evaluated with hospitalization expenses, and the indirect economic loss due to occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province in 2019 was calculated by human capital approach. Results From 2015 to 2019, 505 new cases of occupational pneumoconiosis were reported in Qinghai Province, and there were 348 death cases. Prevalent cases and years lost due to disability (YLD) due to occupational pneumoconiosis were increased, while DALY and years of life lost (YLL) due to occupational pneumoconiosis decreased firstly and then increased. In each year, there were 87% or more of the DALY, YLL, or YLD attributed to silicosis and coal workers' pneumoconiosis. In 2019, the occupational pneumoconiosis-associated DALY was 2173.55 person years. The total hospitalization expense incurred by 42 inpatients with occupational pneumoconiosis was 1256345.19 yuan. The total hospitalization expense and average daily cost of the inpatients with stageⅡand Ⅲ pneumoconiosis were higher than that of the inpatients with stageⅠ (P<0.05), and the hospitalization expense was higher in the ≥60 years age group than in the <60 years age group (P<0.05). In 2019, the indirect economic burden incurred by occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province was 44108581.65 yuan, and accounted for 0.15‰ of the gross domestic product (GDP) of the province. Conclusion The disease burden associated with occupational pneumoconiosis in Qinghai Province are outstanding. Silicosis and coal workers' pneumoconiosis are the key contributors. Targeted intervention measures including dust hazard control, enterprise management, follow-up and rehabilitation management of pneumoconiosis should be taken to prevent and control the occurrence and progression of pneumoconiosis and alleviate disease burden of pneumoconiosis.

Objective:To summarize the patient profiles and therapeutic efficacies of ABO-incompatible living-related kidney transplantations at 19 domestic transplant centers and provide rationales for clinical application of ABOi-KT.Methods:Clinical cases of ABO-incompatible/compatible kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT/ABOc-KT) from December 2006 to December 2009 were collected. Then, statistical analyses were conducted from the aspects of tissue matching, perioperative managements, complications and survival rates of renal allograft or recipients.Results:Clinical data of 342 ABOi-KT and 779 ABOc-KT indicated that (1) no inter-group differences existed in age, body mass index (BMI), donor-recipient relationship or waiting time of pre-operative dialysis; (2) ABO blood type: blood type O recipients had the longest waiting list and transplantations from blood type A to blood type O accounted for the largest proportion; (3) HLA matching: no statistical significance existed in mismatch rate or positive rate of PRA I/II between two types of surgery; (4) CD20 should be properly used on the basis of different phrases; (5) hemorrhage was a common complication during an early postoperative period and microthrombosis appeared later; (6) no difference existed in postoperative incidence of complications or survival rate of renal allograft and recipients at 1/3/5/10 years between ABOi-KT and ABOc-KT. The acute rejection rate and serum creatinine levels of ABOi-KT recipients were comparable to those of ABOc-KT recipients within 1 year.Conclusions:ABOi-KT is both safe and effective so that it may be applied at all transplant centers as needed.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between frailty status and the risk of death in the elderly based on the frailty index (FI).Methods:Data from a prospective cohort study conducted between 2005 and 2015 in elderly people of an urban community in Beijing were analyzed. The variables related to health and frailty status based on the 2005 baseline survey and death as outcome variables collected in 2015 were used. A FI model was used to evaluate the correlation between FI and mortality in the elderly people in different age groups was analyzed. Cox regression was applied to evaluate the influence of FI on the risk of death, and Kaplan-Meier curves was used to show the survival rate of different frailty levels in the elderly adults.Results:Of the 1 301 elderly people included in the analysis, 403 died during 2005-2015, with the 10-year mortality rate of 31.0 %(403/1 301). The mortality rate of the elderly increased with the increase of FI, but, with the increase of FI value, the rate of mortality increased slowly. The limit value of FI causing death was around 0.70, indicating any new health problem might cause death at this value. Cox regression analysis showed that higher FI was associated with higher risk for death ( HR=1.143, 95 %CI: 1.034-1.248, P=0.000), and FI was more significantly associated with death than age ( HR=1.143 vs. HR=1.048, t=5.827, P=0.000). With the increase of age, the effect of frailty on the risk of death decreased ( HR=1.179 to HR=1.120). Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the survival rate of the elderly in all age groups decreased with the increase of frailty (Log-rank=317.812, 354.203, 247.258, all P=0.000). The survival time between different frailty levels in the elderly were significantly different, except for the elderly adults aged ≥80 years with severe frailty level (0.4≤FI<0.5, FI≥0.5, P=0.368). Conclusions:Compared with other evaluation tools of frailty, FI model can better reflect the frailty status of the elderly in communities in Beijing and has a high sensitivity in predicting adverse outcomes such as mortality. In the intervention of frailty in the elderly, focusing on relatively young elderly might be more effective in reducing the adverse outcomes caused by frailty.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, coagulation function and associated prognostic factors of acute aortic dissection. Methods: The clinical data of 119 patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD) admitted to Beijing University People's Hospital from November 2008 to January 2016 were analyzed. All the participants were confirmed by computed tomography angiography, and the onset time was less than 14 days. Data of blood routine test, coagulation function at the first admission were collected, and surgical intervention and prognosis were recorded. All the patients, according to the prognosis, or whether disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) occurred, were divided into two groups, and the differences between the two groups were compared. Logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze independent risk factors related to in-hospital death in AAD patients. Results: In 119 patients with AAD, the average age was (52.9±14.2) years, with a male/female ratio of 5.3:1. Pain was the most common clinical manifestation in patients with AAD, accounting for more than 90.0%. The nature of pain was mostly expansible and/or transitive pain. Dominant DIC occurred in 13 cases (10.9%), and 7 patients died (53.8%). There were significant differences between the DIC group and non-DIC group in neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet count, fibrinogen, D-dimer, FDP, PT, APTT and mortality rate (P<0.05). All the 16 patients in the death group were type A AAD, among which, 7 patients (43.8%) developed with DIC. There were significant differences between the death group and survival group in NLR, platelet count, fibrinogen, D-dimer, FDP, PT, APTT, DIC proportion and surgical operation rate (P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that NLR and platelet count were independent risk factors of in-hospital death (P<0.05). Conclusions D-dimer has a high diagnostic and prognosis value for AAD. The mortality increased with the activation and depletion of platelet. Once DIC occurs, the prognosis is extremely poor. NLR and platelet count are independent risk factors for in-hospital death in patients with AAD.

Objective: To evaluate the short-term effect of arthroscopic Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation for tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament in adults. Methods: The data of 9 adult patients with tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament treated with Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation from April 2017 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The range of motion of knee joint and the stability of knee joint were recorded 3 and 6 months after operation. Results: All patients were followed up for 3 and 6 months after operation. CT examination showed fracture reduction and healing 2 months after operation, and magnetic resonance image examination showed good anterior cruciate ligament tension 3 months after operation. The range of motion of knee joint was 0°-130° after 3 and 6 months, and Lanchman test was negative. The Lysholm score was (45.2 ± 6.7) scores, and IKDC score was (55.1 ± 7.3) scores before operation. The Lysholm score was (89.1 ± 7.2) scores, IKDC score was(87.4 ± 6.1) scores, Lysholm score was (95.4 ± 6.5) scores and IKDC score was (93.2 ± 7.8) scores at 6 months after operation. Conclusions Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation under arthroscopy has a good short-term effect in the treatment tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament in adults.
