BACKGROUND:The application of orthodontic force triggers autophagy in the periodontal tissue via diverse signaling pathways,augmenting or attenuating the activity of relevant cell types such as periodontal ligament cells,osteocytes,osteoclasts,and osteoblasts,thus facilitating the process of periodontal remodeling. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress in orthodontic force mediated autophagy in periodontal tissue and its impact on orthodontic tooth movement. METHODS:The PubMed,Web of Science,China Biology Medicine disc and CNKI were searched for literature published from 2010 to 2023 to summarize the progress in orthodontics-related autophagy.And 76 papers were finally included in the analysis and discussion. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Orthodontic force can trigger a series of biochemical signal changes through periodontal mechanical receptors and aseptic inflammation they cause,leading to autophagy in periodontal tissue.Subsequently,autophagy generates corresponding feedback through cascaded amplified signaling pathways such as Phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B,Hippo,and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways,promoting periodontal tissue remodeling and ultimately achieving tooth movement and stability.Orthodontic force-induced autophagy can differentially regulate bone resorption on the tooth pressure side and bone formation on the tension side.Related targets have good prospects in the clinical application of orthodontic treatment.Orthodontics and autophagy have complex mechanisms.However,existing research has only focused on exploring the role of autophagy in orthodontic tooth movement.Further exploration is needed to investigate the mutual regulatory effects between autophagy and orthodontic tooth movement,as well as the interactions between upstream mechanical receptors and signaling pathways involved in related pathways.

Objective:To explore the application value of compute tomography(CT)scan with 16cm wide body detector in chest examination of patients who could not cooperate with breath-holding.Methods:A total of 100 patients who could not cooperate with breath-holding during chest examination in the second affiliated hospital of Shenyang Medical College from May to August in 2022 were selected,and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 50 patients in each group.The collimation width of CT scan with 16cm wide body detector was 256 mm×0.625 mm in the observation group,and that with 8 cm wide body detector was 128 mm×0.625 mm in the control group,and other parameters of two groups were same.A series of indicators included age,height,weight and body mass index(BMI)of patients were recorded,and the CT dose index(CTDIvol),dose length product(DLP),effective dose(ED)were measured and calculated.And then,the Contrast to Noise ratio(CNR),signal to noise(SNR)and Standard Deviation(SD)between two groups were compared,and the image quality was evaluated objectively and subjectively.Results:The average age and the average weight of the patients in the observation group were respectively(78.81±6.84)years old and(64.46±9.86)kg,and the mean values of BMI,CTDIvol,DLP,ED and exposure time were respectively(22.89±3.09)kg/m2,(4.61±1.00)mGy,(1 471.02±345.25)mGy·cm,(20.59±4.83)mSv,(1.01±0.61)s.The average age and the average weight of the patients in the control group were respectively(77.70±6.76)years old and(62.84±4.75)kg.The mean values of BMI,CTDIvol,DLP,Ed and exposure time were respectively(22.89±2.29)kg/m2,(14.5±0.00)mGy,(4 561.70±346.32)mGy·cm,(63.86±4.85)mSv and(4.07±0.12)s.The differences of subjective evaluations of main pulmonary artery,right inferior pulmonary vein trunk and aortic arch between the observation group and the control group were not significant(P>0.05).The subjective scores of image qualities both two groups were larger than 4,and the image qualities of two groups could meet the diagnostic requirements.The CTDIvol,DLP,ED and exposure time of observation group were significantly lower than those in control group(t=-69.42,-44.231,-44.234,-107.10,P<0.05),respectively.Conclusion:Compared with the CT scan with conventional 8 cm detector,the CT scan with 16 cm wide body detector can greatly shorten the scanning time and reduce the radiation dose in the chest CT scan of patients with free breathing,and the image quality of that can meet the requirement of clinical diagnosis,which has very high application value in the fast diagnosis of clinical emergency.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression levels of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1(MALAT1)and leptin levels in the patients with multiple myeloma,as well as the role in the diagnosis and prognosis of multiple myeloma.Meth-ods A total of 60 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma in this hospital from January 2018 to Oc-tober 2020 were selected as the patient group.Additionally,60 healthy individuals during the same period were recruited as the control group.The levels of serum lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin in the test population were detected.The correlation between the two and thier ratio as well as their role in disease prognosis were invest-gated.Results The expression levels of serum lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin in the patients group were signif-icantly higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).A-mong the various stages of Durie-Salmon(DS)staging,the expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin from stage I,stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ were in turn from high to low,and the differences were statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).Among different immune types,the expression level of lncRNA MALAT1 in the patients with light chain type was highest,which in those with non-secretory type was lowest.The leptin levels in the patients with light chain type,IgG type,IgA type and non-secretory type were in turn from high to low,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Furthermore,the expression level of lncRNA MAL-AT1 was positively correlated with leptin(r=0.41,P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1,leptin levels,and lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio between before and after treatment in the patients with treatment effect(P＜0.05).However,there was no statistically sig-nificant difference in these two indices between before and after treatment in the patients with no treatment effect(P＞0.05).After treatment,the median survival time for the patients with serum lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio＜3 was 27 months(95％CI:21.949-27.120),while which for the patients with serum lncRNA MALAT1/leptin ratio 3 was 14 months(95％CI:12.076-22.199),and the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P=0.014).Conclusion lncRNA MALAT1 and leptin exhibit a certain extent of synergistic effect in the de-velopment and progression of multiple myeloma.The ratio of these two could be used to evaluate the prognosis of the patients.

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound(LIPUS)was first introduced in clinic for the treatment of fracture because of its safety,ef-fectiveness and non-trauma.Then,a large number of subsequent studies have used LIPUS as a synergistic factor in bone,cartilage,joint,cancer treatment and oral clinical research,jointly revealing the powerful synergistic effect of LIPUS.This paper summarizes the synergistic effect of LIPUS in the above research fields,in order to broaden the possible clinical application scope of LIPUS.

Objective:To investigate the clinical, radiological, and pathological features of anaplastic gangliogliomas (AGGs) and to determine whether these tumors represent a distinct entity.Methods:Consecutive 667 cases of ganglioglioma (GG) diagnosed at the Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China between January 2015 and July 2023 were screened. Among these cases, 9 pathologically confirmed AGG cases were identified. Their clinical, radiological, treatment, and outcome data were analyzed retrospectively. Most of the tumor samples were subject to next-generation sequencing, while a subset of them were subject to DNA methylation profiling.Results:Among the 9 patients, there were five males and four females, with a median age of 8 years. Epileptic seizures (5/9) were the most frequently presented symptom. Radiological examinations showed three types of radiological manifestations: four cases showed abnormal MRI signals with no significant mass effects and mild enhancement; two cases demonstrated a mixed solid-cystic density lesion with peritumoral edema, which showed significant heterogeneous enhancement and obvious mass effects, and one case displayed cystic cavity formation with nodules on MRI, which showed evident enhancements. All cases exhibited mutations that were predicted to activate the MAP kinase signaling pathway, including seven with BRAF p.V600E mutation and two with NF1 mutation. Five AGGs with mutations involving the MAP kinase signaling pathway also had concurrent mutations, including three with CDKN2A homozygous deletion, one with a TERT promoter mutation, one with a H3F3A mutation, and one with a PTEN mutation.Conclusions:AGG exhibits a distinct spectrum of pathology, genetic mutations and clinical behaviors, differing from GG. Given these characteristics suggest that AGG may be a distinct tumor type, further expansion of the case series is needed. Therefore, a comprehensive integration of clinical, histological, and molecular analyses is required to correctly diagnose AGG. It will also help guide treatments and prognostication.

Objective:To explore the relationship between atherosclerotic index of plasma(AIP)and vulnerable plaque of coronary under computed tomography(CT)based on coronary CT angiography(CCTA).Methods:Data were retrospectively collected on 213 patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)who underwent CCTA examination from January 2021 to February 2024 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shenyang Medical College,and they were divided into a vulnerable plaque group(123 cases)and a non-vulnerable plaque group(90 cases)according to whether existed vulnerable plaque of coronary artery.General clinical data such as age,gender,history of smoking,history of alcohol consumption,history of diabetes,and serum indicators such as AIP were collected.The differences in AIP and other factors between the two groups were compared.The independent influencing factors of vulnerable plaque of coronary artery were determined by multifactorial logistic regression analysis,and the predictive value of AIP for vulnerable plaque was assessed by drawing a receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results:AIP of vulnerable plaque group was 0.22±0.31,which was higher than that 0.05±0.27 of the vulnerable plaque group,and the difference of AIP between two groups was significant(t=4.223,P<0.001).Multifactorial logistic analysis showed there was independent correlation between AIP and vulnerable plaque under CT(OR=7.556,95%CI:2.442～23.385,P=0.002).The ROC curve showed that the best cut-off value of AIP was 0.20 in predicting vulnerable plaque under CT,and the value of area under curve(AUC)was 0.665,and the sensitivity was 55.56%and the specificity was 73.98%.Conclusion:AIP is an independent influencing factor for CHD patients who complicate vulnerable plaques,and it has a certain of predictive value for vulnerable plaques.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) dependent ferroptosis on cisplatininduced Sertoli cell injury. Materials and Methods: A cisplatin exposure mouse model was established by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin in our study. TM4 cell lines was used for in vitro study. Ferroptosis was detected according to metabolomic analysis and a series of assays, including malondialdehyde, glutathione, and glutathione disulfide concentration detection, 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and BODIPY 581/591 C11 probe detection, and transmission electron microscope imaging. Key ferroptosis-related genes were identified via transcriptomic analysis, western blot and immunohistochemistry. The m6A modification was demonstrated via m6A RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays. Immune cell infiltration was detected by mass cytometry, and verified by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. Results: Ferroptosis, but not other types of programmed cell death, is a significant phenomenon in cisplatin-induced testis damage and Sertoli cell loss. Ferroptosis induced by cisplatin in Sertoli cell/TM4 cell is GPX4 independent but is regulated by SLC7A11 and ALOX12. Both SLC7A11 and ALOX12 are regulated via m6A dependent manner by METTL3. Furthermore, overexpressed ALOX12-12HETE pathway may result in macrophage polarization and inflammatory response in cisplatin exposure testis. Conclusions Cisplatin-induced Sertoli cell injury via ferroptosis and promoted ferroptosis in an m6A dependent manner. m6A modification of both SLC7A11 and ALOX12 mRNA could result in ferroptosis in our in vitro model. Further, overexpressed ALOX12 can cause more production of 12-HETE, which may be responsible for testis inflammation caused by cisplatin.
