BACKGROUND:The composite hydrogel scaffold formed by crosslinking of gelatin-methacryloyl(Gel-MA)and treated dentin matrix(TDM)under a certain proportion of ultraviolet light has good porosity,mechanical properties,swelling properties,and biodegradation rate,which provides a new idea and method for clinical pulp regeneration of young permanent teeth. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel scaffold with 1:2 mass ratio on the proliferation ability and osteogenic/odontoblast differentiation ability of human dental pulp stem cells. METHODS:The passage 3 dental pulp stem cells were inoculated into the Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel scaffold with a mass ratio of 1:2.The proliferation ability of human dental pulp stem cells in the composite hydrogel scaffold was detected by CCK-8 assay.Dental pulp stem cells at passage 3 were cultured in Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel scaffold with a mass ratio of 1:2 for osteogenic induction.The formation of mineralized nodules was observed by alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining.The gene expression levels of odontogenic factors(dentin matrix protein 1,dentin sialophosphoprotein),and osteogenic factors(osteocalcin,Runt-related transcription factor 2)were detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results of CCK-8 assay showed that the proliferation ability of dental pulp stem cells increased significantly in the first 7 days,and slowed down on day 10.(2)The results of alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining showed that the alkaline phosphatase activity and the formation of mineralized nodules of dental pulp stem cells in the Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel group were stronger than those in Gel-MA hydrogel group(P<0.05).(3)RT-PCR results showed that the gene expression levels of dentin matrix protein 1,dentin sialophosphoprotein,osteocalcin,and Runt-related transcription factor 2 in dental pulp stem cells in Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel group were significantly higher than those in Gel-MA hydrogel group(P<0.05).The gene expression level at 14 days was significantly higher than that at 7 days(P<0.05).The results conclude that the dental pulp stem cells cultured on Gel-MA/TDM composite hydrogel scaffolds with a mass ratio of 1:2 exhibit a good proliferation ability,which can strengthen the osteogenic and odontogenic differentiation abilities of dental pulp stem cells.

Major depressive disorder(MDD)is a common mental illness.Currently,nearly 16%of the global population is affected by depression-related symptoms,while the diagnosis and treatment rate of MDD patients in China is only 9.5%.MDD is characterised by high morbidity and low recovery rate,and how to effectively improve its therapeutic effect has been a hot research topic in recent years.Antidepressants,as the main treatment for MDD,have the disadvantages of many adverse effects and slow onset of action,prompting people to pay attention to the non-pharmacological treatments of MDD.Dietary intervention is a kind of non-pharmacological treatment by changing dietary structures and rhythms;the current application of dietary intervention to psychiatry is very extensive,and it has been proved to be effective in the treatment of depression.Recent research suggests that dietary interventions can treat and ameliorate depressive symptoms by influencing brain-gut axis-related eating mechanisms.This article reviews the multidimensional exploration of dietary interventions in the treatment of depression:dietary structure interventions,dietary rhythm interventions,and the role of intestinal flora.It details the modalities of dietary interventions and the related mechanisms involved,and provides reference for dietary interventions in the treatment of depression-related symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and potential classification of symptoms after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and to analyze the differences in demographic characteristics and surgical data, compare the different potential subgroups, in order to provide a basis for clinical symptom management plans.Methods:This study was a multicenter cross-sectional survey. Through convenience sampling, patients with KOA undergoing TKA in the orthopaedic wards of four tertiary hospitals in Urumqi were selected as the study from November 2023 to February 2024. The study subjects were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and the Pitts Burgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the degree of postoperative joint swelling and size of ecchymosis were measured. Latent class analysis was performed using Mplus 8.3 software, and Logistic regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software to explore the influencing factors of the latent classes.Results:Totally 337 effective questionnaires were collected, and the recovery rate was 94.7% (337/356), and the age distribution ranged from 47 to 85 (65.19 ± 6.99) years old, with 90 (26.7%) males and 247 (73.3%) females. There were 92.3% (311/337) of TKA patients with postoperative symptom cluster. The symptom cluster of patients with TKA were identified as 3 classes. They were named as "high level pain-psychological disorder group"(12.5%, 39/311), "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group"(25.4%, 79/311) and "low symptom burden group" (62.1%, 193/311). The results of the unordered multi-class logistic regression analysis showed that age 45-59 years ( OR = 2.367), body mass index 24.0-27.9 kg/m 2 ( OR = 0.207), living with children/parents ( OR = 6.473), and this being the second joint surgery ( OR = 0.040) were the factors influencing the "high level pain-psychological disorders group" (all P<0.05). The factors influencing the "high bruises-moderate psychological disorders group" were living with children/parents ( OR = 4.023), comorbid chronic diseases ( OR = 1.979, 3.842), and intraoperative blood loss ≤100 ml ( OR = 2.342) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The postoperative symptom cluster of TKA patients have a relatively high incidence, and there is heterogeneity within the symptom cluster, so nurses need to identify at-risk patients early according to the characteristics of different categories and give interventions.

Objective To investigate changes of laboratory indicators and pathological features of Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis(HSPN)children after crescent formation,and to explore non-invasive biomarkers for predicting crescent formation.Methods A total of 278 children with HSPN who were hospitalized from January 2018 to July 2023 were selected and divided into the crescent formation group(196 cases)and the non crescent formation group(82 cases)based on their crescent formation status.Patients in the crescent formation group were sub-divided into the cellular crescent formation group(52 cases)and the cellular fibrous crescent formation group(144 cases)based on the type of crescent formation.Laboratory indicators and pathological characteristics were compared between different groups.The correlation between each indicator and the proportion of crescent formation was analyzed.The influencing factors of crescent formation were analyzed by Logistic regression.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted,and the effectiveness of laboratory indicators in predicting crescent formation was evaluated.Results Compared with the non crescent formation group,24-hour urine protein quantification(24 hUP),urine immunoglobulin G/creatinine(UGCR),urine red blood cell count(URBC),neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio(NLR),blood urea nitrogen(BUN)and triglycerides(TG)were significantly increased in the crescent formation group.There were increased proportion of diffuse mesangial hyperplasia(Mb),renal tubular atrophy or interstitial fibrosis(T1)(P<0.05).Compared with the cellular crescent group,the proportion of glomerular segmental sclerosis or adhesion(S1)and T1 were increased,and the proportion of crescent formation was higher in the cellular fibrous crescent group.The proportion of capillary endothelial cell proliferation(E1)was decreased in the cellular crescent group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that 24 hUP,UGCR,URBC,NLR,BUN,TG,Mb and T1 were positively correlated with the proportion of crescent formation(all P<0.05).The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated UGCR and T1 were risk factors for crescent formation.The area under the curve(AUC)predicted by UGCR for crescent formation was 0.731(95%CI:0.667-0.795,P<0.05),with an optimal cutoff value of 5.00 mg/mmol,sensitivity of 0.744 and specificity of 0.610.Conclusion UGCR can be used as a non-invasive biomarker to assist in evaluating crescent formation in children with HSPN.
