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.

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 evaluate the clinical curative effect of invigorating the spleen and kidney and regulating menstrual cycle treament combined with Dong's extra-point acupuncture on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods:According to random number table method, 70 patients with PCOS meeting inclusion criteria in the hospital were divided into western medicine group (23 cases), TCM group (23 cases) and combination group (24 cases) between January and December 2020. The western medicine was treated with ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate tablets, TCM group was treated with invigorating the spleen and kidney and regulating menstrual cycle treatment, and combination group was treated with invigorating the spleen and kidney and regulating menstrual cycle treatment and Dong's extra-point acupuncture. All the three groups were treated continuously for 3 menstrual cycles. Before and after treatment, levels of testosterone, estradiol, FSH and LH were detected by full-automatic immunoluminescence analyzer. The ovaries were detected by color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic apparatus. The ovarian volume, number of follicles and adverse reactions were recorded. The clinical curative effect was evaluated.Results:The differences in total response rate among western medicine group, TCM group and combination group were statistically significant [52.17% (12/23), 60.87% (14/23) vs. 87.50% (21/24), P<0.05]. After treatment, levels of testosterone [(1.02±0.12) μg/L vs. (1.23±0.25) μg/L, (1.46±0.19) μg/L, F=30.47], estradiol [(40.18±12.31) ng/L vs. (48.62±12.58) ng/L, (50.73±12.37) ng/L, F=4.78] and LH [(6.87±2.45) U/L vs. (8.28±2.29) U/L, (8.54±2.51) U/L, F=3.26] in combination group were significantly lower than those in the TCM group and western medicine group ( P<0.05). After treatment, ovarian volume [(7.05±2.34) m 3vs. (8.79±2.11) m 3, (9.12±2.18) m 3, F=5.97] in combination group was significantly lower than that in TCM group and western medicine group ( P<0.05), and number of follicles (<10 mm) (8.28±2.24 vs. 9.67±2.40, 10.15±2.64, F=3.77) was significantly lower than that of TCM group and western medicine group ( P<0.05). During treatment, difference in incidence of adverse reactions among western medicine group, Tiaozhou group and combination group was not statistically significant [21.7% (5/23), 13.0% (3/23) vs. 8.3% (2/24), P>0.05]. Conclusion:The invigorating the spleen and kidney and regulating menstrual cycle treatment combined with Dong's extra-point acupuncture can regulate levels of sex hormones, promote follicles development and ovulation, and improve ovarian morphology of PCOS patients safely.

Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics, clinical efficacy and adverse drug reactions of rheumatoid factor (RF) positive (+ ) and negative (-) polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (PJIA).Methods:The clinical data of 67 PJIA patients admitted into Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, from January 2013 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into RF-positive PJIA group [RF (+ ) group, 23 cases] and RF-negative PJIA group [RF (-) group, 44 cases] according to RF titer.The clinical characteristics, laboratory indexes and clinical efficacy evaluation of the two groups were compared.Results:(1)Distribution of affected joints: the top 3 affected joints in the RF (+ ) group were the knuckles (16 cases, 69.57%), the wrists (15 cases, 65.22%) and the ankles (13 cases, 56.52%), and those in the RF (-) group were the knees (33 cases, 75.00%), ankle joints (29 cases, 65.91%) and hip joints (26 cases, 59.09%). The wrist joint involvement of the RF (+ ) group was significantly higher than that of the RF (-) group, while the knee joint involvement was lower than that of the RF (-) group.The difference was statistically significant (all P<0.01). (2)Magnetic resonance changes of the affected joints: articular cavity effusion (54 cases, 84.38%), synovial thickening (44 cases, 68.75%) and bone edema (26 cases, 40.63%) are common in both groups.The incidence of bone destruction (7 cases, 70.00%) and soft tissue edema (7 cases, 70.00%) in the RF (+ ) group was higher than that in the RF (-) group (2 cases, 18.18% and 2 cases, 18.18%), the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). (3) Changes in laboratory indicators: the positive rates of C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody and anti-nuclear antibody in the RF(+ ) group were significantly higher than those in the RF(-) group, the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). (4)Juvenile arthritis disease activity score 27 (JADAS27): the score difference between RF(+ ) group and RF(-) group was not statistically significant [(22.83±5.60) scores vs.(23.07±6.66) scores, t=0.148, P>0.05]. (5) Efficacy analysis: 2 patients were lost to follow-up after discharge, and the remaining 65 patients were treated with traditional therapy, of which 30 were given biologics at the first hospitalization, 9 cases were treated with biologics after the failure of traditional treatments, and 35 patients were treated with biologics to control disease activity.In different dosage regimens, the disease remission rate in the RF(-) group is generally higher than that in the RF(+ ) group. Conclusions:PJIA patients have complicated joint involvement, RF-positive patients are more prone to joint destruction, and traditional treatments are less effective.Biological agents can effectively improve the symptoms of severe PJIA patients, especially those with poor prognosis.

Objective:To explore the application effect of mindfulness meditation training in patients with heart failure treated by left bundle branch area pacing cardiac resynchronization therapy.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 86 patients with heart failure who were admitted to the Heart Center of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2019 and March 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to the random number table method, a total of 86 patients were divided into the observation group and the control group, with 43 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were given routine nursing and health education, while patients in the observation group were given mindfulness meditation intervention on this basis. Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) , Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to compare the intervention effects.Results:After intervention, scores of SAS, SDS and PSQI of patients in the two groups were all lower than those before intervention, and scores of SAS, SDS and PSQI of patients in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P< 0.05) .

Objective:To analyze the knowledge, skills and self-efficacy of cardiopulmonary resuscitation among the public in mountainous areas of southern Ningxia, and provide scientific support for the popularization of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Methods:According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 1 503 inhabitants in Ningxia district (Jan. 2018 to Jan. 2019) were chosen as research samples. The general data was analyzed; the self-made questionnaire was applied to evaluate the inhabitants ′ theory knowledge, skill mastery and self-efficacy by professional nurses. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influence factors of theory knowledge and skill mastery degree. Results:A total of 1 503 valid questionnaires were collected, the assessment scores of theory knowledge, skill mastery and overall self-efficacy were (53.11±12.34), (62.64±18.35) and (6.09±2.18) points; According to demographic characteristics, multiple linear regression indicated that the influence factors of theory knowledge and skill mastery assessment scores included age, occupational distribution, education backgrounds, training conditions, time of taking training to survey, "onlooker" experience and self-efficacy indicators ( t/ F values were 5.723, 4.393, 5.817, 6.435, 5.990, 6.438, 6.631, P<0.01). The positive correlations were assumed ( r values were 0.012, 0.016, P<0.05) . Conclusion:In Ningxia, the inhabitants generally have low theory knowledge, skill mastery and self-efficacy levels. Therefore, the relevant medical institutions shall enhance the inhabitants ′ cardio-pulmonary resuscitation training through multiple methods and approaches.

Objective:To explore the application value of primary trauma treatment (PTC) teaching mode in special professional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) guide training.Methods:Cluster sampling method was adopted, and the residents' committee selected special occupation population from every town/sub-district office in the southern mountainous area of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region for CPR training. A monthly session was held from January to December 2019, with personnel trained by traditional operation teaching and individual practice method from January to June 2019 as the control group and personnel trained by PTC teaching mode from July to December 2019 as the observation group. The two groups of trainers, training objectives and assessment standards were consistent. Questionnaire survey was conducted at the beginning and end of each training period, including the degree of mastery of first-aid knowledge and skills and the level of self-efficacy, etc., to evaluate the training effect.Results:There were 503 trainees in each group, and there was no significant difference in gender, age, education and occupation distribution between the two groups. There was no significant difference in the first aid principles, CPR skill level and self-efficacy between the two groups before the training. The first aid principle, CPR skills level and self-efficacy of the two groups after training were all improved, and the principle of first aid and CPR skills level in the observation group was obviously higher than that in the control group (first aid related concepts: 4.39±0.76 vs. 3.87±0.89, gold life-saving time: 5.71±0.49 vs. 4.53±0.62, the meaning of the first witnesses: 5.33±0.82 vs. 4.18±0.78, cardiac, respiratory cardiac arrest in the judgment: 5.12±0.73 vs. 4.07±0.73, CPR skills: 5.29±0.64 vs. 4.15±0.71, all P < 0.05). The self-efficacy score of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (emergency attitude: 18.17±1.24 vs. 17.35±1.25, self-efficacy: 13.56±1.54 vs. 11.35±1.26, behavioral intention: 9.56±0.84 vs. 8.92±0.95, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The application of PTC teaching mode in the training of CPR guidelines for special professions has significant effects, which can effectively help special professions to master CPR knowledge and skills, and has promotion value.
