Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of digitally guided precision crown lengthening in secondary aesthetic rehabilitation cases, and to provide a clinical reference for digitally guided crown lengthening procedures and secondary aesthetic restorations. Methods: We present a case of a patient with tetracycline-stained teeth, partial detachment of anterior resin veneers, and gingival margin discrepancies. The patient underwent digitally guided precision crown lengthening followed by secondary aesthetic rehabilitation. Multimodal data, including intraoral, facial, and CBCT scans, were integrated to construct a four-dimensional virtual patient model (incorporating teeth, face, bone, and occlusion) for surgical planning and 3D-printed guide fabrication. Secondary aesthetic restoration was performed after achieving stable post-surgical outcomes. Based on this case, we conducted a detailed analysis and reviewed relevant literature on crown lengthening in secondary aesthetic rehabilitation. Results: The gingival contour of the anterior teeth exhibited significant improvement, with enhanced symmetry and stable gingival margin positioning that closely matched the preoperative design. The crown lengthening procedure demonstrated high precision, and the final outcome was aesthetic and functional. Literature review indicated that secondary restorations frequently present challenges such as gingival contour discrepancies and inflammation. Aesthetic crown lengthening in the anterior region should optimize both soft and hard tissue morphology to meet aesthetic standards, with digital technology improving procedural accuracy. Conclusion Precision crown lengthening effectively addresses gingival margin discrepancies in secondary aesthetic rehabilitation, ensuring stable gingival positioning and superior aesthetic outcomes. This approach is particularly suitable for cases with high aesthetic demands.

AIM: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of XEN drainage tube implantation combined with mitomycin C(MMC)for open angle glaucoma(OAG).METHODS:A total of 37 OAG patients(37 eyes)were retrospectively included, grouped by anti-glaucoma surgical treatment as the first choice or not, with 17 patients(17 eyes)in the group with primary surgical treatment, and 20 patients(20 eyes)in the group with the numerous surgeries. The intraocular pressure(IOP), kinds of IOP-lowering drugs, and complications were collected and analyzed in 1 a follow-up postoperatively.RESULTS:Upon the one-year follow-up, IOP had decreased from 27.56±9.94, 28.43±14.18 mmHg to 15.16±3.65, 17.18±5.83 mmHg in both groups, respectively, representing a reduction of 55.01% and 60.43%, respectively(t=4.863, P<0.001; t=3.255, P=0.004). The IOP at various follow up points were lower than preoperative points in both groups(Ftime=6.876, Ptime<0.001; Fintergroup=0.242, Pintergroup=0.626; Ftime×intergroup=0.959, Ptime×intergroup=0.458). The complete success rate was 47% and 45%, the qualified success rate was 76% and 75%(Z=-0.115, P=0.909), respectively, and there was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between two groups(χ2=0.042, P=0.838; χ2=0.004, P=0.949). At the last follow up, IOP-lowering drugs were reduced from 3(2, 3)to 1(0, 2)in both groups(Z=-3.289, -3.796, all P<0.001), and no significant difference between groups(Z=-0.581, P=0.561). Hypotony is the most common short-term complications, anterior chamber haemorrhage followed, while, filtering bleb encapsulation is the most frequent long-term complication, no serious complications occurred, but with XEN drainage tube exposure in 1 eye and drop in 1 eye.CONCLUSION:Initial XEN drainage tube implantation combined with MMC and numerous glaucoma surgeries are both safe and effective treatment for OAG patients, while the incidence of filtering bleb encapsulation is high in those with numerous glaucoma surgeries.

Objective To investigate the correlation between aCAS and the location and volume of cerebral WMH in the elderly people.Methods A total of 188 elderly WMH patients admitted to our hospital from September 2022 to September 2023 were enrolled and divided into no or mild(stenosis≤49％,137 cases),moderate(50％-69％,25 cases),and severe aCAS groups(≥70％,26 cases)according to the degree of carotid stenosis.All of the patients underwent cranial MRI scanning to assess total,periventricular,deep,and juxtacortical WMH volumes.Univariate and multivariate generalized linear model analyses were used.Results The moderate and severe aCAS groups had significantly older age,larger proportions of coronary heart disease and smoking,and higher total,peri ventricular,and juxtacortical WMH volumes than the no or mild aCAS group,and the deep WMH in the severe aCAS group was higher than that in the no or mild aCAS group(P＜0.05).Multivariate generalized linear model analysis showed that both moderate and severe aCAS were independent risk factors for total WMH volume(OR=325.629,95％CI:24.255-4371.608;OR=51.088,95％CI:4.135-631.128),periventricular WMH volume(OR=27.655,95％CI:5.168-147.976;OR=8.988,95％CI:1.754-46.051),deep WMH volume(OR=3.641,95％CI:1.511-8.774;OR=2.589,95％CI:1.105-6.064)and juxtacortical WMH volume(OR=3.005,95％CI:1.831-4.933;OR=2.199,95％CI:1.36-3.566)(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion aCAS is an independent risk factor for WMH in the elderly population,and stenosis＞50％has a greater correlation with WMH volume.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic use of low-dose hydrocortisone （HC） for the prevention and treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia （BPD）， and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， Cochrane Library， CJFD， VIP and Wanfang databases were searched by computer； randomized controlled trials （RCT） about prophylactic use of low-dose HC （trial group） versus placebo or dopamine （control group） in very premature infants were collected from the establishment of the database to Jun. 2022. The quality of the included literature was evaluated by using bias risk assessment tool recommended by Cochrane system evaluator’s manual （version 6.2） after screening the literature and extracting the data. Meta-analysis， sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were carried out with RevMan 5.3 statistical software. RESULTS A total of 1 437 very premature infants were included in 9 RCTs. Meta- analysis showed that the incidence of BPD [OR＝0.75， 95%CI（0.58，0.95）， P＝0.02] and fatality [OR＝0.72， 95%CI （0.54， 0.97）， P＝0.03] in trial group were significantly lower than control group； the survival rate without BPD [OR＝1.36， 95%CI （1.06，1.74）， P＝0.02]， the incidences of gastrointestinal perforation [OR＝2.23， 95%CI （1.31，3.78）， P＝0.003] and sepsis [OR＝ 1.27， 95%CI （1.01，1.60）， P＝0.04] in trial group were all significantly higher than control group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis， paraventricular leukomalacia， intraventricular hemorrhage， patent ductus arteriosus， hyperglycemia， pneumothorax， retinopathy of premature infants between the two groups （P＞0.05）. Results of sensitivity analysis showed that study results were robust. Results of publication bias analysis showed that there was little possibility of publication bias in this study. CONCLUSIONS The early prophylactic use of low-dose HC can reduce BPD in very premature infants， reduce fatality， and improve the survival rate without BPD， but we should pay attention to gastrointestinal perforation and sepsis.
