Objective:To study the effect of preoperative pancreatic duct stent placement in enucleation (EN) of pancreatic tumor adjacent to the main pancreatic duct (MPD).Methods:Clinical data of 56 patients with benign or borderline pancreatic tumor adjacent to the MPD undergoing EN in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2022 to September 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including 25 males and 31 females, aged (32.0±5.5) years. Among the patients, 35 (62.5%) were solid pseudopapillary neoplasm, 15 (26.8%) were neuroendocrine tumor, and 6 (10.7%) were serous cystic tumor. According to whether the pancreatic duct stent was placed through encoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography preoperatively, patients were divided into the stent group ( n=20, observation group) and no-stent group ( n=36, control group). The operation time, intraoperative pancreatic duct injury, tumor enucleation time and blood loss, grade B/C pancreatic fistula and postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients underwent EN successfully. The operation time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group [150.0 (143.5, 159.0) vs 158.0 (150.0, 180.0) min, Z=-2.08, P=0.031], and the rate of intraoperative MPD injury in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [10.0% (2/20) vs 38.9% (14/36), χ2=5.26, P=0.022]. The tumor enucleation time and blood loss were comparable between the two groups (both P>0.05). The rate of postoperative grade B/C pancreatic fistula in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [15.0% (3/20) vs 41.7% (15/36), χ2=4.19, P=0.041], and the postoperative hospital stay was also shorter in the observation group [(7.9±1.6) vs (9.3±2.1) d, t=-2.57, P=0.014]. Conclusion:Under the premise of matured endoscopic operation, preoperative pancreatic duct stent placement through ERCP in the EN of pancreatic tumor adjacent to the MPD can protect the MPD during operation, reduce the occurrence of postoperative grade B/C pancreatic fistula, and shorten the postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To construct a nomogram model for predicting the risk factors of gastrointestinal bleeding following laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) based on relevant risk factors and evaluate its predictive value.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 466 patients with periampullary space occupying lesion who underwent LPD at the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, from January 2021 to December 2024. Among them, there were 284 males and 182 females, aged (59.9±10.7) years. Patients were randomly divided into a training cohort ( n=326) and a validation cohort ( n=140) using a random number table (7: 3 ratio). Based on whether patients suffered gastrointestinal bleeding, the training cohort was further stratified into a gastrointestinal bleeding group ( n=23) and control group ( n=303). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for gastrointestinal bleeding. A nomogram was constructed based on multivariate results, and its predictive performance was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results:Compared to the control group, the gastrointestinal bleeding group exhibited significantly higher age, higher rates of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and intra-abdominal infection, along with lower body mass index, and lower levels of fibrinogen and albumin (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified age ( OR=1.065, 95% CI: 1.002-1.132), fibrinogen ( OR=0.486, 95% CI: 0.243-0.969), albumin ( OR=0.840, 95% CI: 0.741-0.953), POPF ( OR=4.299, 95% CI: 1.348-13.716), and postoperative intra-abdominal infection ( OR=6.352, 95% CI: 1.476-27.341) as independent predictors of gastrointestinal bleeding (all P<0.05). The nomogram demonstrated robust discrimination, with an AUC of 0.861 (95% CI: 0.784-0.939), sensitivity of 82.6%, and specificity of 82.2% in the training cohort. In the validation cohort, the AUC was 0.824 (95% CI: 0.675-0.973), with sensitivity and specificity of 80.0% and 83.8%, respectively. Calibration curves indicated excellent agreement between predicted and observed outcomes. DCA revealed superior net clinical benefit of the nomogram over " treat-all" or " treat-none" strategies within threshold probabilities of 0-0.9 (training) and 0-0.75 (validation). Conclusion:The nomogram based on age, fibrinogen, albumin, POPF, and intra-abdominal infection provides accurate prediction of gastrointestinal bleeding after LPD and demonstrates high clinical utility for risk stratification and decision-making in periampullary space occupying lesion patients.

Objective:To investigate effects of polydimethylsiloxane coating on the quality characteristics and qual-ity control methods of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles,including appearance,identification,physi-cal properties,water resistance of inner surface and element leaching amount.Methods:Nine batches of coated medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles and corresponding medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles from three companies were used to evaluate whether the quality control method of medium borosilicate glass tube in-jection bottles after polydimethylsiloxane film was modified,and to evaluate the effect of coating on the quality char-acteristics of bottles.Results:The coating did not have effect on appearance,identification and physical properties of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle.The coating process did not damage the original performance of the medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle,and lead to the matters with special attention on the inspection method.The water resistance of the inner surface of the coated medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle was improved.The leaching amounts of harmful elements such as arsenic,antimony,lead and cadmium before and after coating were low,indicating that the coating process did not increase the leaching risk of these harmful elements.The leaching amounts of elements were determined by ICP-OES,and no significant changes were found in most metal elements.Conclusion:The appearance,identification,physical properties and element leaching quality con-trol method of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle after poly dimethylsiloxane film coating do not need to be changed.The water resistance of the inner surface after coating is improved,and there is no significant adverse effect on other quality characteristics.

Objective:To establish a finite element model of the mandibular first molar with three wall defects, simulate the repair effect of fiber post porcelain crown and modified inlay, and analyze the effect of crown defect location on abutment stress.Methods:One intact mandibular first molar was extracted due to periodontal disease. Conical beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to obtain the data, Mimics, Geomagic, and Ansys software were used to construct the mandibular first molar model, and 8 groups of models (groups A, B, C, D of fiber post all-porcelain crown and groups E, F, G, and H of modified onlays) were established according to different locations and repair methods of the three wall defects. Four forces (F1, F2, F3 and F4) were selected to compare the maximum Von Mises stress and its distribution.Results:The extreme values of dentin Von Mises stress were 19.334 9-19.907 1 MPa(F1), 8.295 47-8.466 08 MPa(F2), 19.433 5-19.441 4 MPa(F3) for fiber post all-porcelain crown restoration (group A, B, C and D models), respectively. 36.109 3-36.199 8 MPa(F4); The maximum values of Von Mises stress were 19.493-19.864 8 MPa(F1) in modified high inputate restoration (E, F, G, H). 9.077 35-9.317 12 MPa(F2), 22.770 6-23.541 2 MPa(F3), 35.724 2-35.989 7 MPa(F4). There was little change among the models. The extreme value of dentin stress increased with the increase of loading Angle. Under the same defect mode, the extreme value of dentin stress in groups A, B, C and D was less than that in groups E, F, G and H at F2 and F3. At F1 and F4, the extreme values of dentin stress in the eight groups were similar, but the dentin stress concentration area in groups A, B, C and D was located on the tooth surface, and the stress concentration area appeared in the pulp chamber in groups E, F, G and H.Conclusions:The position of the defect has no significant effect on the repairing effect of the modified inlay and the fiber post porcelain crown. The fiber post porcelain crown is more beneficial to disperse the dentin stress.

Digital intraoral scanning is a hot topic in the field of oral digital technology.In recent years,digital intra-oral scanning has gradually become the mainstream technology in orthodontics,prosthodontics,and implant dentistry.The precision of digital intraoral scanning and the accuracy and stitching of data collection are the keys to the success of the impression.However,the operators are less familiar with the intraoral scanning characteristics,imaging process-ing,operator scanning method,oral tissue specificity of the scanned object,and restoration design.Thus far,no unified standard and consensus on digital intraoral scanning technology has been achieved at home or abroad.To deal with the problems encountered in oral scanning and improve the quality of digital scanning,we collected common expert opin-ions and sought to expound the causes of scanning errors and countermeasures by summarizing the existing evidence.We also describe the scanning strategies under different oral impression requirements.The expert consensus is that due to various factors affecting the accuracy of digital intraoral scanning and the reproducibility of scanned images,adopting the correct scanning trajectory can shorten clinical operation time and improve scanning accuracy.The scanning trajec-tories mainly include the E-shaped,segmented,and S-shaped methods.When performing fixed denture restoration,it is recommended to first scan the abutment and adjacent teeth.When performing fixed denture restoration,it is recommend-ed to scan the abutment and adjacent teeth first.Then the cavity in the abutment area is excavated.Lastly,the cavity gap was scanned after completing the abutment preparation.This method not only meets clinical needs but also achieves the most reliable accuracy.When performing full denture restoration in edentulous jaws,setting markers on the mucosal tissue at the bottom of the alveolar ridge,simultaneously capturing images of the vestibular area,using different types of scanning paths such as Z-shaped,S-shaped,buccal-palatal and palatal-buccal pathways,segmented scanning of dental arches,and other strategies can reduce scanning errors and improve image stitching and overlap.For implant restora-tion,when a single crown restoration is supported by implants and a small span upper structure restoration,it is recom-mended to first pre-scan the required dental arch.Then the cavity in the abutment area is excavated.Lastly,scanning the cavity gap after installing the implant scanning rod.When repairing a bone level implant crown,an improved indi-rect scanning method can be used.The scanning process includes three steps:First,the temporary restoration,adjacent teeth,and gingival tissue in the mouth are scanned;second,the entire dental arch is scanned after installing a standard scanning rod on the implant;and third,the temporary restoration outside the mouth is scanned to obtain the three-di-mensional shape of the gingival contour of the implant neck,thereby increasing the stability of soft tissue scanning around the implant and improving scanning restoration.For dental implant fixed bridge repair with missing teeth,the mobility of the mucosa increases the difficulty of scanning,making it difficult for scanners to distinguish scanning rods of the same shape and size,which can easily cause image stacking errors.Higher accuracy of digital implant impres-sions can be achieved by changing the geometric shape of the scanning rods to change the optical curvature radius.The consensus confirms that as the range of scanned dental arches and the number of data concatenations increases,the scanning accuracy decreases accordingly,especially when performing full mouth implant restoration impressions.The difficulty of image stitching processing can easily be increased by the presence of unstable and uneven mucosal mor-phology inside the mouth and the lack of relatively obvious and fixed reference objects,which results in insufficient ac-curacy.When designing restorations of this type,it is advisable to carefully choose digital intraoral scanning methods to obtain model data.It is not recommended to use digital impressions when there are more than five missing teeth.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of gastroduodenal artery-stump pro-tection technology (GDAPT) in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD).Methods:The retro-spective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 288 patients who underwent LPD in The Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2021 to May 2024 were collected. There were 172 males and 116 females, aged (60±7)years. Of the 288 patients, 186 patients undergoing LPD with GDAPT were divided into the intervention group, including 78 cases with GDAPT using ligamentum teres hepatis and 108 cases with GDAPT using left-lateral lobe and hepatic caudate lobe, 102 patients undergoing LPD without GDAPT were divided into the control group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative complications and prognosis. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 288 patients completed LPD successfully.
