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.

Fibromyalgia syndrome （FMS） is a refractory， chronic non-articular rheumatic disease characterized by widespread pain throughout the body， for which there are no satisfactory therapeutic drugs or options. There are rich Chinese medical therapies， and some non-drug therapies， such as acupuncture， Tai Chi， and Ba-Duan-Jin， have shown satisfactory efficacy and safety and definite advantages of simultaneously adjusting mind and body. FMS is taken as a disease responding specifically to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2018. In order to clarify the research progress in FMS and the clinical advantages of TCM/integrated Chinese and Western medicine， the China Academy of Chinese Medicine organized a seminar for nearly 20 experts in Chinese and Western medicine， including rheumatology， psychology， acupuncture and moxibustion， and encephalopathy， with the topic of difficulties in clinical diagnosis and treatment of FMS and advantages of TCM and Western medicine. The recommendations were reached on the difficulties in early diagnosis and solutions of FMS， mitigation of common non-specific symptoms， preferential analgesic therapy， TCM pathogenesis and treatment advantages， and direction of treatment with integrated Chinese and Western medicine. FMS is currently facing the triple dilemma of low early correct diagnosis， poor patient participation， and unsatisfactory benefit from pure Western medicine treatment. To solve the above problems， this paper suggests that rheumatologists should serve as the main diagnostic force of this disease， and they should improve patient participation in treatment decision-making， implement exercise therapy， and fully utilize the holistic and multidimensional features of TCM， which is effective in alleviating pain， improving mood， and decreasing adverse events. In addition， it is suggested that FMS treatment should rely on both TCM and Western medicine and adopt multidisciplinary joint treatment， which is expected to improve the standard of diagnosis and treatment of FMS in China.

Objective    To explore the key points and difficulties of intraoperative frozen section diagnosis of pulmonary diseases. Methods    The intraoperative frozen section and postoperative paraffin section results of pulmonary nodule patients in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 to January 2022 were collected. The main causes of misdiagnosis in frozen section diagnosis were analyzed, and the main points of diagnosis and differential diagnosis were summarized. Results    According to the inclusion criteria, a total of 1 263 frozen section diagnosis results of 1 178 patients were included in the study, including 475 males and 703 females, with an average age of 58.7 (23-86) years. In 1 263 frozen section diagnosis results, the correct diagnosis rate was 95.65%, and the misdiagnosis rate was 4.35%. There were 55 misdiagnoses, including 18 (3.44%) invasive adenocarcinoma, 17 (5.82%) adenocarcinoma in situ, 7 (35.00%) mucinous adenocarcinoma, 4 (2.09%) minimally invasive adenocarcinoma, 3 (100.00%) IgG4 related diseases, 2 (66.67%) mucinous adenocarcinoma in situ, 1 (16.67%) atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, 1 (14.29%) sclerosing pulmonary cell tumor, 1 (33.33%) bronchiolar adenoma, and 1 (100.00%) papillary adenoma. Conclusion    Intraoperative frozen section diagnosis still has its limitations. Clinicians need to make a comprehensive judgment based on imaging examination and clinical experience.

Objective To explore the guiding significance of preoperative 3D reconstruction for pulmonary nodule location and thoracoscopic surgical method selection in lung cancer patients. Methods The clinical data of the patients with preoperative 3D reconstruction in our China-Japan Friendship Hospital between January and November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative surgical planning was performed using 3D reconstruction. Different surgical procedure, including wedge resection, segmentectomy, lobectomy, or combined surgical procedure were performed based on tumor location, size and distance from the pleura. Results A total of 115 patients were included with 45 males and 70 females, at an average age of 25-84 (58.29±11.36) years and successfully completed the operation. Fifty-five (47.8%) patients' nodule diameter was tangent cross-section, among whom twenty-five (21.7%) patients of nodules crossed sections. There were 21 patients of wedge resection in the outer 1/3 nodules of CT, which had shorter operation time and less cost (P<0.001) and less intraoperative bleeding (P=0.019). For the crossing sections or edge crossing sections nodules of the middle and inner of CT, 6 patients were of simple pulmonary segmentectomy, 8 patients of combined with sub-segmentectomy, 7 patients of combined segmentectomy, 5 patients of lobectomy, and 3 patients of wedge resection. Conclusion The proportion of cross-segment pulmonary nodules is relatively high. For the outer 1/3 nodules of CT, compared with pulmonary segmental resection combined with adjacent lung tissue resection, wedge resection can also ensure sufficient surgical margin, and the middle and inner 1/3 nodules of CT need to be combined with adjacent pulmonary tissue resection to ensure the surgical edge.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current situation of the review and comment on inpatient medical orders in Beijing municipal hospitals， and to put forward countermeasures and suggestions for further improving related work. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the current situation of the review and comment on inpatient medical orders in 22 Beijing municipal hospitals. The statistical analysis was conducted for the survey results. RESULTS A total of 22 questionnaires were distributed， with recovery effective rate of 100%. The 22 hospitals carried out inpatient medical order comment， but their proportion varied among hospitals （0.88%-98.54%）； medical order comment mainly focused on antibiotics， proton pump inhibitors， anesthetic drugs/class Ⅰ psychotropic drugs， auxiliary drugs and other categories； 205 pharmacists participated in the comment of inpatient medical orders， most of whom hold intermediate or higher professional titles （89.27%）； 21 hospitals conducted inpatient medical order comment and feedback the results to relevant departments/responsible persons， but the intervention situation was not the same. Eighteen hospitals had carried out the review of inpatient medical orders； reviewed drug category was roughly the same as the category involved in the medical order comment； review content involved the suitability of administration routes， dosage， etc. The review was conducted mainly through the cooperation of audit software and pharmacists. CONCLUSIONS The comment and review of inpatient medical orders in Beijing municipal hospitals carried out in an orderly manner， and preliminary results have been achieved； at the same time， it is necessary to further increase the ability of participating pharmacists， improve audit standards， optimize pre-audit （No.ZYLX201805） software， and promote rational drug use among hospitalized patients through doctor-pharmacist collaboration.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment （CRCI） of breast cancer based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging （rs-fMRI）. MethodTwenty-five patients with CRCI of breast cancer were included and treated with the acupuncture based on the method of regulating qi and blood， nourishing mind and benefiting intelligence； the selected acupoints included Zusanli （ST 36， bilateral）， Xuehai （SP 10， bilateral）， Tanzhong （CV 17）， Zhongwan （CV 12）， Qihai （CV 6）， Baihui （GV 20）， Fengfu （GV 16， bilateral）， Xinshu （BL 15， bilateral）， Tongli （HT 5， bilateral）， Zhaohai （KI 6， bilateral）， Yixi （BL 45， bilateral） twice a week， each time interval of 2-3 days， for 8 weeks. The scores of Montreal Cognitive Assessment （MoCA）， Mini-mental State Examination （MMSE）， European Cancer Research and Treatment Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire （EORTC QLQ-C30） were compared before and after acupuncture， and the effectiveness were evaluated by MoCA scale. The patients received rs-fMRI before and after treatment， and used low-frequency oscillation amplitude and functional connectivity （FC） analysis to extract the mean zALFF values of regions of interest such as bilateral anterior cingulate gyrus， bilateral hippocampus， bilateral amygdala， bilateral temporal pole middle temporal gyrus， and bilateral temporal pole supramarginal gyrus for comparison， and used the brain regions with statistically significant differences in the pre- and post-treatment zALFF values as the seed points for the seed-point-based FC Analysis. Correlation analyses were performed between the imaging metrics and the clinical scales. ResultsTwenty-four patients with CRCI of breast cancer completed treatment and follow-up. The zALFF values of the left hippocampus， left amygdala， and left temporal pole temporal gyrus in patients' rs-fMRI decreased after treatment （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， and left temporal pole temporal gyrus and right posterior cerebellar lobe FC were elevated （t = -5.169）， and MoCA scale total scores and visuospatial and executive， naming， and delayed recall cognitive scores， MMSE scale total scores， and EORTC QLQ-C30 scale mood scores were significantly higher （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The total effective rate of MoCA was 58.33%. The difference in zALFF values of the left temporal pole middle temporal gyrus before and after treatment was negatively correlated with the MoCA total score （r= -0.499， P = 0.015）， as well as the difference in abstract function （r = -0.498， P = 0.016）. ConclusionThe acupuncture method of regulating qi and blood， nourishing mind and benefiting intelligence can improve the cognitive function of breast cancer patients with CRCI， and its mechanism may be related to improving the functional activities of hippocampus， amygdala and temporal lobe， as well as the functional connections of left temporal pole-temporal middle gyrus and right posterior cerebellar lobe.

Objective To explore the optimal postoperative adjuvant regimens for patients with stage IB lung adenocarcinoma.Methods We respectively analyzed the data of 653 patients undergoing surgery for stage IB lung adenocarcinoma in our hospital from January,2013 to December,2021.The 5-year disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)rates were compared among the patients receiving postoperative adjuvant therapy with epidermal growth factor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors(EGFR-TKIs group,n=111),chemotherapy(CT group,n=108)and clinical observation(CO group,n=434).Results In TKIs,CT,and CO groups,the 5-year DFS rates were 92.8%,80.7%,and 81.7%,respectively,significantly higher in TKIs group than in CO group(P<0.01).The 3-year OS rates of the 3 groups were 96.8%,97.1%,and 91.7%,respectively.Subgroup analysis showed that in TKIs,CT,and CO groups,the 5-year DFS rates of patients with with T3-4 cmN0M0 were 92.6%,84.0%,and 81.4%,respectively,significantly higher in TKIs group than in CO group(P<0.05);the 5-year DFS rates of T2ViscPlN0M0 patients were 95.1%,71.4%,and 83.5%,respectively.Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that age(P<0.05;HR=0.631,95%CI:0.401-0.993),solid nodules(P<0.01;HR=7.620,95%CI:3.037-19.121),micropapillary or solid component(P<0.05;HR=1.776,95%CI:1.010-3.122),lymphovascular invasion(P<0.05;HR=2.981,95%CI:1.198-7.419),and adjuvant therapy(P<0.01)were independent predictors of DFS.The most common adverse effects included rashes,paronychia,and diarrhea for TKIs and hematological suppression and gastrointestinal reactions for chemotherapy,and TKIs were associated with a higher incidence of grade 3 or above adverse effects(44.4%vs 9.0%).Conclusion Adjuvant therapy with TKIs helps improve DFS in patients with stage IB(T3-4cmN0M0)lung adenocarcinoma but not in patients with T2ViscPlN0M0.Adjuvant chemotherapy does not improve DFS or OS in patients with stage IB lung adenocarcinoma.

Objective:To assess the merits and demerits of placing small-sized tube as drainage compared with traditional drainage in patients after uniportal thoracoscopic lung wedge-resection.Methods:Patients who received uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (U-VATS) lung wedge-resection were identified in our database. Patients placed small-sized tube drainage were compared with those placed traditional 28 Fr chest tube in terms of characteristics, perioperative outcomes. Propensity score matching was performed to balance the baseline of the patients.Results:Of the 178 enrolled patients, 121 were assigned to conventional tube group and 57 were assigned to small-sized tube group. After matching, 36 pairs of patients from the two groups were selected for statistical comparison. Compared with the traditional drainage group, the operation duration of the small-sized tube group was shorter[0.83(0.75, 1.04)h vs.1.08(0.96, 1.41)h, P=0.003], intraoperative blood loss was less [5(5, 10) ml vs. 10(7.5, 10) ml, P=0.001), postoperative total drainage volume was less[67.5(30, 190)ml vs.175(120, 365)ml, P<0.001], and postoperative pain score was lower[0.3(0.3, 0.7) vs.0.7(0.3, 2.2), P<0.05]. No significant difference was observed in the incidence of small amount of pneumothorax or small amount of pleural effusion before extubation between the two groups. The incidence of postoperative complications was relatively low and there was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion:Compared to conventional chest tube, small-sized tube for postoperative drainage after U-VATS lung wedge-resection, may be a feasible and promising approach to reduce postoperative pain and promote recovery.

Objective:To explore the influence of pulmonary nodule size, nodule location, fissure, surgical approach, surgical entrance, postoperative pathology, surgical method and other factors on the relevant information of basal segmentectomy under thoracoscopy.Methods:Retrospectively analyze 103 patients who underwent thoracoscopic basal segmentectomy of the lung from January 2023 to February 2024. According to the classification of nodule size, nodule position, development of pulmonary fissure, surgical approach, number of surgical entrance, postoperative pathology, surgical method, tc., the influence of single factor Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influence of various factors on the relevant information of pulmonary basal segmentectomy under thoracoscopy. Results:When the dependent variable was the surgery duration, single factor analysis showed that CT location( P=0.024), nodule composition( P=0.029), surgical entry( P=0.002), surgical method( P<0.001), and surgical approach( P=0.052) significantly influenced the surgery duration. Variables with P<0.1 in the single factor analysis were included in the multivariate analysis, which showed that surgical entry and surgical method significantly influenced surgery duration( P<0.05). When the dependent variable was the total hospitalization cost, single factor analysis showed that CT location, surgical approach, and surgical method significantly influenced the total hospitalization cost( P<0.1). Multiple factor analysis showed that the surgical method affected the total hospitalization cost, with significantly higher costs when S9 or S10 lung segments were resected( P=0.050). When the dependent variable was postoperative drainage duration, single factor analysis showed that the condition of the lung fissures significantly influenced postoperative drainage duration( P=0.028). Multiple factor regression analysis showed that incomplete lung fissure development significantly increased the possibility of postoperative air leaks( P=0.034). Conclusion:The surgical access may significantly affect the operation time, which is the use of uniport thoracoscopy is shorter than the multi-port operation time, the surgical method does not contain S9/S10 is shorter than that of S9/S10, and the total cost of hospitalization is lower. The completeness of the fissure will significantly decrease the possibility of postoperative pulmonary leakage.
