Peri-implant diseases are characterized by the resorption of hard tissue and the inflammation of soft tissue. Epigenetics refers to alterations in the expression of genes that are not encoded in the DNA sequence, influencing diverse physiological activities, including immune response, inflammation, and bone metabolism. Epigenetic modifications can lead to tissue-specific gene expression variations among individuals and may initiate or exacerbate inflammation and disease predisposition. However, the impact of these factors on peri-implantitis remains inconclusive. To address this gap, we conducted a comprehensive review to investigate the associations between epigenetic mechanisms and peri-implantitis, specifically focusing on DNA methylation and microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs). We searched for relevant literature on PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar with keywords including "epigenetics," "peri-implantitis," "DNA methylation," and "microRNA." DNA methylation and miRNAs present a dynamic epigenetic mechanism operating around implants. Epigenetic modifications of genes related to inflammation and osteogenesis provide a new perspective for understanding how local and environmental factors influence the pathogenesis of peri-implantitis. In addition, we assessed the potential application of DNA methylation and miRNAs in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of peri-implantitis, aiming to provide a foundation for future studies to explore potential therapeutic targets and develop more effective management strategies for this condition. These findings also have broader implications for understanding the pathogenesis of other inflammation-related oral diseases like periodontitis.

Combining the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine on glucolipid metabolism disorders， it is believed that the formation process of glycolipid metabolism disorders can be presented as five states "depression， phlegm-dampness， heat， blood stasis， and deficiency"， and the turbid pathogens run through the whole process. Accordingly， the method of "regulating states and removing turbidity" is proposed， which is specifically the method of resolving depression and turbidity， dispelling phlegm-dampness and turbidity， clearing heat and turbidity， dispelling blood stasis and turbidity， and replenishing deficiency and removing turbidity. Combined with the biological basis of glycolipid metabolism disorder， through the analysis of the clinical application of each method and the related mechanism of action， it is clarified that the method of regulating states and resolving turbidity can play a role in improving glycolipid metabolism disorder by regulating lipid metabolism disorder， insulin resistance， bile acid metabolism abnormality， intestinal bacterial flora， and its metabolite abnormality and other mechanisms of action.

Due to the complexity of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） interventions and the diversity of herbal components， single-omics technologies such as genomics， transcriptomics， proteomics， and metabolomics often cannot comprehensively elucidate the scientific connotations of TCM. Multi-omics technologies driven by system biology can analyze the theoretical connotations and application mechanisms of TCM from different levels such as genes， gene expression， proteins， and metabolites， in line with the holistic view of TCM， which helps to promote the modernization of TCM. By reviewing the literature on the application of omics technologies in the field of TCM， it is found that multi-omics technologies have been widely used in TCM for syndrome differentiation， evaluation of herbal quality， elucidation of pharmacological mechanisms， and drug toxicity assessment， providing comprehensive explanations of the mechanisms of action of TCM and overcoming the limitations of single-omics technologies， and having obtained significant achievements. However， multi-omics technologies also face challenges such as high cost， difficulties in data analysis due to large data volumes， and insufficient translation of research results. In the future， it is expected that through strengthening interdisciplinary cooperation， conducting long-term and dynamic clinical research， standardizing and normalizing data analysis processes， adopting appropriate and reasonable multi-omics integration patterns， establishing multi-omics databases for TCM， revealing the individualized characteristics， therapeutic mechanisms， and disease regulatory networks of TCM， the modernization of TCM will be promoted.

Objective:To explore the role of conducting a"thematic morning report"based on post-competency in the standardized residents training in hospital in the Intensive Care Unit(ICU).Methods:A total of 60 resident training physicians who participated in the standardized residents training in hospital in the ICU of this hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were included,and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 30 in each group.The observation group adopted an interactive teaching method of themed morning report based on post-competency,while the control group adopted the traditional teaching method.The assessment results of clinical theoretical knowledge and operational skills of the two groups of resident training physicians under different teaching methods were compared.The 360°assessment method was used to record the multi-directional evaluation of patients or their families,nurses,colleagues,and teaching teachers on the post-competence of resident training physicians(self-learning ability,team collaboration ability,effective communication ability,and learning interest).Results:The assessment scores of clinical theoretical knowledge and practical skills in the observation group after teaching were higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(theoretical assessment:t=2.101,P＜0.05;practical assessment:t=9.647,P＜0.05).The post-competence scores of nurses,colleagues,and teaching teachers on resident training physicians in the observation group were higher than those in the control group after one-month regular training,and the differences were statistically significant(nurses'evaluation of self-learning ability:t=3.182,P=0.002,team collaboration ability:t=3.978,P＜0.05,effective communication ability:t=2.180,P=0.0335,learning interest:t=3.884,P＜0.05;colleagues'evaluation of self-learning ability:t=2.888,P=0.005,team cooperation ability:t=6.816,P＜0.05,effective communication ability:t=3.833,P＜0.05,learning interest:t=4.086,P＜ 0.05;teaching teacher's evaluation of self-learning ability:t=3.429,P=0.001,team cooperation ability:t=3.086,P=0.003,effective communication ability:t=3.493,P=0.001,learning interest:t=3.126,P=0.003).There was a statistically significant difference in the satisfaction scores of patients or their familymembers towards the two groups of resident training physicians(t=3.126,P=0.003).Conclusion:The use of the interactive teaching method of thematic morning report based on post-competency in the standardized residents training in hospital in the ICU can not only improve the theoretical practice and case analysis test scores of resident training physicians,but also improve the post-competence and the satisfaction of patients and their families.

Facing the challenge of the COVID-19 epidemic to the classroom teaching, the physiology teaching team of Qiqihar Medical University constructed a blended teaching model based on "small private online course (SPOC)+ live real audio" to carry out online teaching. Through the joint efforts of all team members, the online teaching has been carried out in a stable order for 4 weeks, thus ensuring the teaching effect of physiology. Taking the physiology teaching of 236 nursing undergraduates in Batch 2019 as an example, this paper introduces the teaching design, implementation measures, teaching effect and teaching reflection of carrying out online teaching under the epidemic situation, and provides practical experience for further promoting online teaching in medical colleges and universities during epidemic prevention and control.
