Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a congenital heart disease characterized by mitral and(or)aortic valve stenosis or atresia,leading to the hypoplasia of the left ventricle,ascending aorta and aortic arch.If not treated in time,most children die within a few weeks after birth.Congenital complete atrioventricular block is a rare congenital cardiac conduction disorder.When combined with severe cardiac malformations,the mortality rate is extremely high.In this case,a 26-year-old pregnant woman with a history of 3 pregnancies and 1 delivery,had a natural conception with monochorionic diamniotic twins. At 22 +5 weeks of gestation,it was first found that one of the twins had hypoplastic left heart syndrome with congenital complete atrioventricular block through fetal echocardiography detection.This situation was extremely rare,and there was a lack of clinical guidelines on how to manage the pregnancy and determine the time of delivery time.In this case,prenatal ultrasound was used to monitor and comprehensively evaluate fetal cardiac function through the cerebroplacental ratio(CPR)combined with the cardiovascular overall performance score(CVPS).Pregnancy safety management was implemented,and a cesarean section was performed at an elective time.Another healthy fetus did not suffer any adverse effects. This case provides strong evidence for ensuring the safety of healthy fetus and mother in perinatal period.It is also confirmed that CPR and CVPS combined evaluation of fetal cardiac function and pregnancy outcome will be more accurate and comprehensive.This method is simple,accurate,non-invasive,and can be used as an effective method for clinical evaluation of fetal cardiac function.

Digital technologies have become an integral part of complete denture restoration. With advancement in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), tools such as intraoral scanning, facial scanning, 3D printing, and numerical control machining are reshaping the workflow of complete denture restoration. Unlike conventional methods that rely heavily on clinical experience and manual techniques, digital technologies offer greater precision, predictability, and efficacy. They also streamline the process by reducing the number of patient visits and improving overall comfort. Despite these improvements, the clinical application of digital complete denture restoration still faces challenges that require further standardization. The major issues include appropriate case selection, establishing consistent digital workflows, and evaluating long-term outcomes. To address these challenges and provide clinical guidance for practitioners, this expert consensus outlines the principles, advantages, and limitations of digital complete denture technology. The aim of this review was to offer practical recommendations on indications, clinical procedures and precautions, evaluation metrics, and outcome assessment to support digital restoration of complete denture in clinical practice.

Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) is the pillar for the development of motherland medicine, and animal medicine has a long history of application in China, characterized by wide resources, strong activity, definite efficacy, and great benefits. It has significant potential and important status in the consumption market of raw materials of TCM. In the context of global climate change, farming system alterations, and low renewability, the depletion of wild medicinal animal resources has accelerated. Accordingly, the conservation and sustainable utilization of wild resources of animal medicinal materials has become a problem that garners increasing attention and urgently needs to be solved. This paper summarizes the current situation of domestic and foreign medicinal animal breeding and research progress in industrial application in recent years and points out the issues related to standardized breeding, germplasm selection and breeding, and quality evaluation standards for medicinal animals. Furthermore, this paper discusses standardized breeding, quality standards, resource protection and utilization, and the search for alternative resources for rare and endangered medicinal animals. It proposes that researchers should systematically carry out in-depth basic research on animal medicine, improve the breeding scale and level of medicinal animals, employ modern technology to enhance the quality standards of medicinal materials, and strengthen the research and development of alternative resources. This approach aims to effectively address the relationship between protection and utilization and make a significant contribution to the sustainable development of medicinal animal resources and the animal-based Chinese medicinal material industry.
