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.

Objective·To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,gene mutation profile,and prognostic factors of thyroid diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods·From November 2003 to December 2021,a total of 66 patients with thyroid DLBCL[23 cases(34.8%)with primary thyroid DLBCL,and 43 cases(65.2%)with secondary thyroid DLBCL]admitted to Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed for their clinicopathological data,survival and prognostic factors.Gene mutation profiles were evaluated by targeted sequencing(55 lymphoma-related genes)in 40 patients.Results·Compared to primary thyroid DLBCL,secondary thyroid DLBCL had advanced ratio of Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ?Ⅳ(P=0.000),elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)(P=0.043),number of affected extranodal involvement≥2(P=0.000),non-germinal center B cell(non-GCB)(P=0.030),BCL-2/MYC double expression(DE)(P=0.026),and international prognostic index(IPI)3?5-scores(P=0.000).The proportion of patients who underwent thyroid surgery(P=0.012)was lower than that of patients with primary thyroid DLBCL.The complete remission(CR)rate in primary thyroid DLBCL patients was higher than that in secondary thyroid DLBCL patients(P=0.039).Fifty-five patients(83%)received rituximab combined with cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine,and prednisone(R-CHOP)-based first-line regimen.The estimated 5-year progression free survival(PFS)rate of primary thyroid DLBCL patients was 95.0%,higher than the 49.7%of the secondary patients(P=0.010).Univariate analysis showed that Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=4.411,95%CI 1.373?14.170),elevated LDH(HR=5.500,95%CI 1.519?19.911),non-GCB(HR= 5.291,95%CI 1.667?16.788),and DE(HR=6.178,95%CI 1.813?21.058)were adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL.Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=7.088,95%CI 0.827?60.717),elevated LDH(HR=6.982,95%CI 0.809?60.266),and DE(HR=18.079,95%CI 1.837?177.923)were adverse prognostic factors of overall survival(OS).Multivariate analysis showed that Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ(HR=4.693,95%CI 1.218?18.081)and elevated LDH(HR=5.058,95%CI 1.166?21.941)were independent adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL.Targeted sequencing data showed mutation frequency>20%in TET2(n=14,35%),KMT2D(n=13,32%),TP53(n=11,28%),GNA13(n=10,25%),KMT2C(n=9,22%),and TP53 were adverse prognostic factors of PFS in patients with thyroid DLBCL(P=0.000).Conclusion·Patients with primary thyroid DLBCL have better PFS and OS than those with secondary thyroid DLBCL.Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ,elevated LDH,non-GCB,and DE(MYC and BCL2)are adverse prognostic factors in thyroid DLBCL.TET2,KMT2D,TP53,GNA13,and KMT2C are commonly highly mutated genes in thyroid DLBCL,and the prognosis of patients with TP53 mutations is poor.

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-ulcerative colitis(UC) effect of Sargentodoxae Caulis and explore its mechanism. METHODS The UC mice model induced by dextran sodium sulfate was used to evaluate the anti-UC effect of Sargentodoxae Caulis. The ingredients of Sargentodoxae Caulis were obtained according to the CNKI and PubMed website, component targets were screened by SwissTargetPrediction database, GEO gene chip was used to extract UC differential genes, then a network of "ingredients-targets-disease" of the Sargentodoxae Caulis was constructed. After screening the core targets, protein interaction and cluster analysis, biological process and pathway enrichment analysis were performed, and the reliability of network analysis was preliminarily verified by molecular docking and literatures. RESULTS Sargentodoxae Caulis could significantly improve the disease activity index score, colon shortening and colonic histopathological changes of UC mice, and had a good anti-UC effect. The network analysis found that the core components of the anti-UC of Sargentodoxae Caulis include (+)-Dihydroxyurearetic acid, Isorhaponigenin and Pinosylvin, and 63 core targets, such as EGFR, STAT1 and LCK, regulating PI3K-Akt signal pathway and cancer proteoglycan and other related signal pathways of immune anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer, and it could affect the biological processes such as amino acid modification, kinase activity regulation, cell reaction and oxidative stress to treat UC. Molecular docking and literature showed that the constructed network had high reliability. CONCLUSION Sargentodoxae Caulis has a good anti-UC effect, and its mechanism may be closely related to the regulation of intestinal immune inflammation and cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. It has the characteristics of multi-component, multi-target and multi-way.

AIM:To investigate the effect of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase(ADAM)domain-like decy-sin 1(ADAMDEC1)knockdown on the proliferation,migration and invasion of pancreatic carcinoma cells.METHODS:Expression levels of ADAMDEC1 in pancreatic carcinoma tissues were analyzed using the GEPIA and UALCAN online da-tabases.Western blot analysis was employed to detect the protein expression levels of ADAMDEC1 in pancreatic carcino-ma cell lines(MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1)and pancreatic ductal cell line(hTERT-HPNE).The effects of ADAMDEC1 knockdown on cell proliferation,migration and invasion were evaluated using CCK-8,colony formation,wound-healing and Transwell assays.Additionally,Western blot analysis was used to detect the effects of ADAMDEC1 knockdown on the expression levels of migration and invasion markers,as well as Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related proteins in pancre-atic carcinoma cells.Furthermore,a recovery experiment was conducted to assess the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling path-way agonist CHIR-99021 in ADAMDEC1 knockdown-induced inhibition of pancreatic carcinoma cell growth and migra-tion.RESULTS:(1)ADAMDEC1 was highly expressed in pancreatic carcinoma cells.(2)Knockdown of ADAMDEC1 led to a significant reduction in the proliferation,migration and invasion of pancreatic carcinoma cells.(3)Knockdown of ADAMDEC1 resulted in increased E-cadherin protein expression and decreased levels of matrix metalloproteinase 9,N-cadherin and vimentin proteins,alongside a reduction in the expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related pro-teins.(4)Co-treatment of pancreatic carcinoma cells with CHIR-99021 and ADAMDEC1 small interfering RNA reversed the inhibitory effects of ADAMDEC1 knockdown on cell proliferation,migration,and invasion.CONCLUSION:ADAMDEC1 is highly expressed in pancreatic carcinoma.Targeted silencing of ADAMDEC1 has the potential to inhibit the prolifera-tion,migration and invasion of pancreatic carcinoma cells by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Objective : This work mainly studied the effects of acute sleep deprivation (SD) on anxiety and depres- sion behavior in mice，and explored possible molecular mechanisms． Methods : 33 male 8-week-old C57BL /6 mice were randomly divided into environment control (EC) group and a SD group．The open field test and elevated plus maze test were used to evaluate their spontaneous and anxiety behavior，while the forced swimming test and tail suspension test were used to detect depression behavior in mice．The expression of neuroinflammatory proteins and the levels of autophagy-related proteins were detected by Western blot method. Results : Behavioral results showed that comparing to the EC group，the total distance traveled by mice in the SD group significantly increased in the open field test(P ＜0. 01 ) ，while the number of crossings and time spent in the central area did not show significant differences. Results from the forced swimming test showed that immobility time significantly increased in the SD group mice(P ＜0. 01 ) ，but there were no significant differences in tail suspension and elevated plus maze test. Western blot results showed that comparing to the EC group，the levels of NLRP1，TNF-α, IL-1 β, IL-18，and autophagy protein p62 in the hippocampus of the SD group mice significantly increased，while the levels of Atg5，Atg7 decreased significantly，and the phosphorylation level of AMPK also decreased significantly． Conclusion SD may induce depression-like behavior in mice by inhibiting the AMPK-autophagy signaling pathway in the hippocampus and upregulating neuroinflammatory levels.

Early childhood caries (ECC) is a significant chronic disease of childhood and a rising public health burden worldwide. ECC may cause a higher risk of new caries lesions in both primary and permanent dentition, affecting lifelong oral health. The occurrence of ECC has been closely related to the core microbiome change in the oral cavity, which may be influenced by diet habits, oral health management, fluoride use, and dental manipulations. So, it is essential to improve parental oral health and awareness of health care, to establish a dental home at the early stage of childhood, and make an individualized caries management plan. Dental interventions according to the minimally invasive concept should be carried out to treat dental caries. This expert consensus mainly discusses the etiology of ECC, caries-risk assessment of children, prevention and treatment plan of ECC, aiming to achieve lifelong oral health.
