Objective: To evaluate and compare the accuracy of responses to pediatric preventive dentistry-related questions between the domestic large language model, ChatGLM-6B, and the international large language model, ChatGPT-3.5, in order to provide insights for further research and development of domestic language models in the field of oral medicine. Methods: A total of 100 common pediatric preventive dentistry questions of varying difficulty levels [basic (n = 35), intermediate (n = 35), and advanced (n = 30) ] were provided by pediatric preventive dentistry experts. Two doctors independently registered these questions with ChatGPT-3.5 and ChatGLM-6B and collected the answers. A cohort of 16 dentists assessed responses generated by ChatGLM-6B and ChatGPT-3.5 using a predefined 3-point Likert scale. The average score of the ratings from 16 doctors was taken as the answer score. If the answer score was higher than 2.8, it was accepted as a accurate answer; if the score was lower than 1.4, it was accepted as an inaccurate answer; if the score was between 1.4 and 2.8, it was accepted as a partially accurate answer. Comparative analysis was conducted on the accuracy rates and evaluation outcomes between the two groups. Consistency analysis of the ratings was conducted Results: The answer accuracy rates of ChatGPT-3.5 and ChatGLM-6B for 100 pediatric preventive dentistry questions were comparable: ChatGPT-3.5 demonstrated 68% accurate, 30% partially accurate, and 2% inaccurate responses, while ChatGLM-6B showed 67% accurate, 31% partially accurate, and 2% inaccurate responses, with no statistically significant differences (P>0.05). Both models exhibited equivalent accuracy across questions of varying difficulty levels (basic, intermediate, advanced), showing no statistical differences (P>0.05). The overall average scores for ChatGPT3.5 and ChatGLM-6B in answering all questions were both 2.65, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). For questions of different difficulty levels, ChatGPT3.5 had an average score of 2.66 for basic questions while ChatGLM-6B had an average score of 2.70. For intermediate questions, ChatGPT3.5 had an average score of 2.63 and ChatGLM-6B had an average score of 2.64. For advanced questions, ChatGPT3.5 had an average score of 2.68, and ChatGLM-6B had an average score of 2.61. No statistically significant differences were observed across any difficulty category (P>0.05). The consistency of the experts’ grading ranged from fair to moderate. Conclusion This study demonstrates the potential of both ChatGLM-6B and ChatGPT-3.5 in answering pediatric preventive dentistry questions. ChatGLM-6B performed similarly to ChatGPT-3.5 in this field, but the accuracy rates of both models fell short of expectations and are not suitable for clinical use. Future efforts should focus on improving the accuracy and consistency of large language models in providing medical information, as well as developing specialized medical models for the field of oral medicine.

Background and Aims:Laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair(LHHR)is the gold-standard surgical treatment for hiatal hernia(HH),but postoperative recurrence remains a challenge due to hiatal enlargement and disruption of the phrenoesophageal ligament.This study aimed to assess the feasibility,safety,and short-term efficacy of a novel three-dimensional small intestinal submucosa(3D-SIS)patch designed for circumferential crural reinforcement and ligament-like reconstruction in a porcine LHHR model.Methods:Twelve healthy pigs(35-40 kg)were equally randomized into non-mesh group,SIS flat patch group,and 3D-SIS patch group.All animals underwent LHHR and Nissen fundoplication under general anesthesia.In the non-mesh group,the hiatal defect was closed with interrupted sutures.In the SIS flat patch group,a U-shaped SIS patch was placed posterior to the esophagus to reinforce the crura and fixed with medical glue.In the 3D-SIS patch group,an intraoperatively assembled three-dimensional patch was applied,consisting of an upper keyhole-shaped layer for circumferential diaphragmatic reinforcement,a tubular middle part encircling the abdominal esophagus,and a lower small keyhole-shaped patch covering the gastroesophageal junction,all fixed with medical glue.After 3 months,laparotomy was performed to assess recurrence,patch integration,and complications,followed by biomechanical and histological evaluations.Results:All procedures were completed successfully with no deaths or major complications.Operative time was slightly longer in the patch groups,while blood loss was similar.No hernia recurrence or patch migration was observed at 3 months.Biomechanical testing revealed higher ultimate load and Young's modulus in both SIS groups than in the non-mesh group.Histological analysis demonstrated neovascularization and collagen deposition in the patch groups,with the 3D-SIS patch showing more complete circumferential integration and ligament-like tissue formation.Conclusion:The 3D-SIS patch is feasible and safe in porcine LHHR.It provides circumferential diaphragmatic reinforcement and promotes phrenoesophageal ligament-like regeneration,offering a new concept for reducing postoperative recurrence and reconstructing the anti-reflux barrier.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of the radiation dose of thoracic cage bone structure on clinical prognosis in patients with locally advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (LA‐NSCLC) receiving chemoradiotherapy, and to develop and verify a combined model combining the radiation dose of bone structure, the estimated radiation dose of immune cells (EDRIC) and other related factors to predict the prognosis of LA‐NSCLC.Methods:Clinical data of 197 patients with LA‐NSCLC who underwent chemoradiotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were randomly divided into the training set and testing set at a ratio of 7:3 using computer random partitioning. The EDRIC value was calculated using the model developed by Jin et al. and modified by Ladbury et al. The scope of the thoracic cage structure includes the ribs, sternal manubrium, sternal body, thoracic vertebral body, thoracic vertebral appendages, and thoracic vertebrae. The tumor volume, ERDIC, and average bone structure dose (D mean) were categorized into two groups using the P25, P50, P75 value from the quartile method. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of overall survival (OS), local progression‐free survival (LPFS), and distant metastasis‐free survival (DMFS) for predicting the outcome, and significant correlated variables were retained to construct a combined prediction model with EDRIC. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, decision curve analysis (DCA), and calibration curves were plotted for subjects at the 2‐year time point of the combined model to evaluate the predictive performance. The model was visualized through a nomograph. Results:In the thoracic cage bone structure, D mean > 47.3 Gy of the sternal manubrium was an independent risk factor of OS, LPFS, and DMFS of LA-NSCLC patients. D mean > 23.1 Gy of thoracic vertebral body was an independent risk factor of OS, and D mean > 14.4 Gy of thoracic vertebral body was an independent risk factor of DMFS. Among other variables, gross tumor volume (GTV) >50.2 cm 3 was a risk factor for OS, and GTV >87.0 cm 3 was a risk factor for LPFS. Planning target volume >571.9 cm 3 was a risk factor for DMFS. A combined prediction model for OS, LPFS, and DMFS was established with EDRIC using features significantly associated with these three predicted outcomes. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of OS combined model in the training set and test set were 0.708 and 0.696, respectively, and the AUC of DMFS combined model were 0.675 and 0.639, respectively. The calibration curve and DCA curve of the two prediction endpoints showed that the combined model had good prediction accuracy and clinical benefit. However, the LPFS model was not good in accuracy and clinical applicability. Conclusions:The radiation dose of sternal manubrium and thoracic vertebral body in the thoracic cage bone structure is an independent influencing factor for the prognosis of LA‐NSCLC patients after chemoradiotherapy. The combined model has good predictive performance for OS and DMFS.

Aiming at the human-computer interaction problem during the movement of the rehabilitation exoskeleton robot, this paper proposes an adaptive human-computer interaction control method based on real-time monitoring of human muscle state. Considering the efficiency of patient health monitoring and rehabilitation training, a new fatigue assessment algorithm was proposed. The method fully combined the human neuromuscular model, and used the relationship between the model parameter changes and the muscle state to achieve the classification of muscle fatigue state on the premise of ensuring the accuracy of the fatigue trend. In order to ensure the safety of human-computer interaction, a variable impedance control algorithm with this algorithm as the supervision link was proposed. On the basis of not adding redundant sensors, the evaluation algorithm was used as the perceptual decision-making link of the control system to monitor the muscle state in real time and carry out the robot control of fault-tolerant mechanism decision-making, so as to achieve the purpose of improving wearing comfort and improving the efficiency of rehabilitation training. Experiments show that the proposed human-computer interaction control method is effective and universal, and has broad application prospects.

Maintaining the stemness of the transplanted stem cell spheroids in an inflammatory microenvironment is challenging but important in regenerative medicine. Direct delivery of stem cells to repair periodontal defects may yield suboptimal effects due to the complexity of the periodontal inflammatory environment. Herein, stem cell spheroid is encapsulated by interfacial assembly of metal-phenolic network (MPN) nanofilm to form a stem cell microsphere capsule. Specifically, periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) spheroid was coated with Fe^III/tannic acid coordination network to obtain spheroid@[Fe^III-TA] microcapsules. The formed biodegradable MPN biointerface acted as a cytoprotective barrier and exhibited antioxidative, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities, effectively remodeling the inflammatory microenvironment and maintaining the stemness of PDLSCs. The stem cell microencapsulation proposed in this study can be applied to multiple stem cells with various functional metal ion/polyphenol coordination, providing a simple yet efficient delivery strategy for stem cell stemness maintenance in an inflammatory environment toward a better therapeutic outcome.
