Objective: To analyze the disease burden and trends of oral diseases among China’s elderly population (1990-2021) and provide evidence for developing targeted intervention strategies Methods : Using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study, we extracted prevalence, incidence, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for oral conditions (permanent dental caries, edentulism, periodontal diseases, and other oral disorders) in individuals aged ≥60 years in China. Due to data limitations, other oral diseases only included DALYs and prevalence. Age-standardized rates (ASR)—including age-standardized prevalence rate (ASPR), age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), and age-standardized DALYs rate (ASDR)--were calculated. Trends were assessed via Joinpoint regression using average annual percentage change (AAPC), stratified by sex and age groups (60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95+ years). Results: From 1990 to 2021, China’s elderly population exhibited distinct trends in oral disease burden. Overall oral diseases showed declining ASDR and ASPR, yet ASIR slightly increased. Permanent dental caries demonstrated significant rises across ASDR, ASIR, and ASPR. Edentulism showed declining ASDR and ASPR alongside stable ASIR. 95+ age group saw rising rates. Periodontal diseases remained largely stable in ASDR and ASPR but experienced a slight ASIR decline. Other oral disorders showed mild ASDR decline and stable ASPR. Notably, sex and age disparities persisted. Women consistently bore higher burdens for overall oral diseases, caries, edentulism, and other oral diseases but lower periodontal disease rates compared to men. 85-89, 90-95, 95+ age group faced rising DALYs and prevalence for overall oral diseases, while all other age groups demonstrated declining trends in both DALYs and prevalence; for permanent caries, the 60-64 age group showed the largest increases in DALY rate, incidence, and prevalence; edentulism demonstrated the most pronounced and sustained rises in DALY rate and prevalence in the 95+ group, while declining most rapidly in the 60-64 age group; for periodontal disease, both DALY rates and prevalence declined in the 90-94 and 95+ age groups, but increased across all measures (DALY rate, incidence, and prevalence) in the 70-74 and 75-79 age group; other oral conditions exhibited relatively stable burden distributions or minor changes, with no significant age-specific shifting trends observed. Conclusion From 1990 to 2021, China’s elderly oral disease burden declined overall, but caries surged, edentulism improved, periodontal diseases stabilized, and other oral diseases slightly declined. Prioritizing older women and the adults aged 85+ is critical to addressing evolving oral health needs.

Objective: To investigate the trend in disease burden of injuries among children and adolescents in China from 1990 to 2021, so as to provide a basis for formulating prevention and control strategies and reducing this disease burden. Methods: Data on mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALY) rate, incidence, and prevalence of injuries among children and adolescents aged <20 years in China from 1990 to 2021 were collected from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database. All rates were standardized using the GBD 2021 world standard population. The trend in incidence of disease burden of injuries among children and adolescents across differents genders and ages from 1990 to 2021 was evaluated using average annual percent change (AAPC). Results: From 1990 to 2021, the standardized mortality (AAPC=-5.435%), standardized DALY rate (AAPC=-5.311%), standardized incidence (AAPC=-0.466%), and standardized prevalence (AAPC=-0.810%) of injuries among children and adolescents in China showed downward trends (all P<0.05). Among these, the standardized mortality of animal contact (AAPC=-9.138%) and the standardized DALY rate of medical side effects (AAPC=-8.389%) decreased at a relatively fast pace, while the standardized incidence of falls (AAPC=0.083%) and the standardized prevalence of exposure to natural forces (AAPC=2.656%) showed upward trends (all P<0.05). The standardized mortality, standardized DALY rate, standardized incidence and standardized prevalence of injuries were higher in males than in females. The trend in males showed a downward trend (all P<0.05), consistent with the total population. The crude incidence of injuries in the group aged 15-<20 years showed an upward trend (AAPC=0.391%, P<0.05), while the trend in the group aged 10-<15 years was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The crude incidence of injuries in the groups aged 5-<10 years and <5 years showed downward trends (AAPC=-0.488% and -2.275%, both P<0.05). In 2021, the <5 years age group had the highest crude mortality and crude DALY rate of injuries, at 13.94/100 000 and 1 257.26/100 000, respectively. The 15-<20 years age group exhibited the highest crude incidence and crude prevalence, at 4 874.05/100 000and 4 050.35/100 000, respectively. Drowning and falls were major components of the disease burden across all age groups. Conclusions From 1990 to 2021, the disease burden of injuries among children and adolescents in China showed an overall downward trend. The disease burden was consistently higher in males than in females. Children aged <5 years face a high risk of fatality and disability, while adolescents aged 15-<20 years experience a high incidence and frequency of injuries. Drowning and falls were key priorities for prevention and control.

Trauma is the main cause of death and disability. Patients with severe trauma have hemorrhagic shock, traumatic coagulopathy and other diseases, which increase the risk of death. Platelets are important in the hemostatic response, but their function is rapidly dysregulated in trauma patients, leading to traumatic coagulopathy, blood loss, and early death. In addition to their role in hemostasis, platelets act as coordinators of the initial immune response, which can lead to immunothrombosis, organ dysfunction, and increased late mortality. At present, the treatment of post traumatic platelet dysfunction is mainly based on early hemostasis, and late prevention and treatment of thrombosis and organ dysfunction. In this review, the characteristics, underlying mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment strategies of platelet dysfunction in different periods are summarized, to provide ideas for studying the mechanism of platelet dysfunction after trauma and the treatment strategy for trauma patients.

Critically ill patients are at high risk for hospital acquired infections, which can significantly increase the mortality rate and treatment costs for these patients. Therefore, in the process of treating the primary disease, strict prevention and control of new hospital infections is an essential component of the treatment for critically ill patients. The treatment of critically ill patients involves multiple steps and requires a concerted effort from various aspects such as theory, management, education, standards, and supervision to achieve effective prevention and control of hospital infections. However, there is currently a lack of unified understanding and standards for hospital infection prevention and control. To address this, in March 2024, a group of experts in critical care medicine, infectious diseases, and hospital infection from China discussed the current situation and issues of hospital infection control in the intensive care unit together. Based on a review of the latest evidence-based medical evidence from both domestic and international sources, 2024 Expert Consensus on Hospital Acquired Infection Control Principles in the Department of Critical Care Medicine was formed, aiming to provide a basis for the development of hospital infection prevention and control strategies in the field of critical care medicine.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and spatial-temporal distribution of drug-resistant tuberculosis in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021 and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of drug-resistant tuberculosis. Methods The data of tuberculosis patients in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021 were collected through the Tuberculosis Information Management System of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The geographic information database was established by ArcGIS software and the vector map of Pudong New Area for trend surface analysis and spatial autocorrelation analysis . Results From 2016 to 2021, a total of 3916 patients with etiological positive tuberculosis were found to be drug resistant with the drug resistance rate of 13.13%. The drug resistance rate of each year showed a decreasing trend (χ²_trend=14.917, P<0.001). The rates of drug resistance of male, retiree, age 50~<60 years old, 60~<70 years old and recurrent patient were higher. From 2016 to 2021, the incidence of drug-resistant TB showed no spatial aggregation.In the south - north direction, the north is higher than the south generally. In the east - west direction, the west is higher than the east generally. Conclusion Drug resistance screening should be strengthened for men, retirees, over 50 years old, and recurrent TB patients,. Prevention and control measures should be strengthened in street towns with dense population and large floating population.

Objective To observe the value of 5.0T MR susceptibility weighted imaging(SWI)for displaying cerebral small veins and detecting cerebral microbleeds(CMB).Methods Head MR examinations were prospectively performed using both 3.0T and 5.0T MR scanner in 30 stroke patients suspected caused by cerebral small vessel disease.The image quality,effect of displaying cerebral small veins and detecting CMB were compared between 3.0T and 5.0T SWI.Results The image quality scores,signal-to-noise ratios,contrast-to-noise ratios,scores of displaying deep cerebral veins and subcortical veins,the counts of detecting CMB and iron deposition on cortical surface of 5.0T SWI were all higher than those of 3.0T SWI(all P＜0.05).High consistency of CMB positions was found between 3.0T and 5.0T SWI(Kappa=1.0).Conclusion The effect of 5.0T MR SWI for displaying cerebral small veins and detecting cerebral microbleeds were better than 3.0T MR SWI,which could be used to assess stroke caused by cerebral small vascular disease.

Objective To observe the value of gastric filling ultrasound(GFUS)for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of hiatal hernia(HH).Methods Totally 71 HH patients who underwent laparoscopic HH repair and fundoplication surgery were retrospectively enrolled and divided into dysphagia group(n=23)and non dysphagia group(n=48)according to postoperative Saeed scores.GFUS parameters,including inner diameter of esophageal hiatus lumen(IDE),wall thickness of abdominal esophageal(WTE)and inner diameter of the esophageal lumen at the fold(FIDE)were compared between groups,and their value of diagnosing postoperative dysphagia were analyzed.Results In dysphagia group,IDE and FIDE were lower,while WTE was higher than those in non dysphagia group(all P＜0.05).Low IDE and high WTE were both independent risk factors of postoperative dysphagia in HH patients.The sensitivity,specificity and area under the curve(AUC)of IDE for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH was 82.64％,66.69％and 0.773,of WTE was 82.59％,68.73％and 0.793,of their combination was 88.89％,77.59％and 0.843,respectively.The AUC of the combination of IDE and WTE was higher than that of IDE and WTE alone(Z=1.328,1.364,P=0.044,0.043).Conclusion Combination of GFUS parameters IDE and WTE was valuable for diagnosing dysphagia after surgical operation of HH.

Objective To explore the predictive value of cognitive function trend after ACI for the recurrence risk of cerebral infarction.Methods A total of 256 ACI patients admitted to our hospi-tal from January 2021 to December 2023 were enrolled retrospectively.Based on their MoCA score at 3 months after onset,they were assigned into 96 cases of no PSCI,51 cases of improved PSCI,17 cases of delayed PSCI and 92 cases of persistent PSCI.According to the results of MoCA at 2 weeks after onset,they were divided into 133 cases of PSCI group and 123 cases of non-PSCI group.The clinical data of the ACI patients were compared between the two groups,and their cog-nitive function trends were analyzed.Results Advanced age,and larger proportions of female,du-al antiplatelet therapy and PSQI＞5 were observed in the PSCI group than the non-PSCI group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There were significant differences in the incidences of recurrence and poor prognosis in the ACI patients with different cognitive function trends(P＜0.01).The persistent PSCI was associated with the increased risk of recurrence of cerebral infarction and poor prognosis(P＜0.05).The AUC value of persistent PSCI in predicting the recurrence and poor prognosis of cerebral infarction was 0.703(95％CI:0.631-0.767)and 0.595(95％CI:0.521-0.666),respec-tively.Conclusion Persistent PSCI can be used as a predictor of recurrence of cerebral infarction,and it also increases the risk of cognitive dysfunction in ACI patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of compound betamethasone adjuvant on break-through pain after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty under sciatic nerve combined with femoral nerve block.Methods A total of 100 patients underwent unicondylar knee arthroplasty,32 males and 68 females,aged 55-75 years,BMI 18.5-35.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ,were divided into three groups according to random number table method:no adjuvant group(group C,n=34),dexamethasone adjuvant group(group D,n=33)and compound betamethasone adjuvant group(group B,n=33).The patients in the three groups received sciatic nerve block and 0.4％ropivacaine 15 ml before anesthesia in-duction,then femoral nerve block,0.4％ropivacaine 15 ml in group C,0.4％ropivacaine 15 ml in group D(containing dexamethasone 5 mg),and 0.4％ropivacaine 15 ml in group B(containing compound beca-methasone 4 mg).The occurrence of breakthrough pain,the number of effective analgesic pump compres-sions,opioid dosage,and the number of remedial analgesia cases were recorded.The ground movement dis-tance was recorded 0-24 hours,24-48 hours,and 48-72 hours after operation.The sleep quality scores and adverse events were also recorded.Results Compared with group C,the incidence rate of breakthrough pain was lower(P＜0.05),the number of effective analgesia pump compressions,the dosage of opioid,and the sleep quality score on the first night after operation were significantly decreased in group B(P＜0.05).Compared with group D,the incidence rate of breakthrough pain and breakthrough pain score were lower(P＜0.05),the number of effective analgesia pump compressions,the dosage of opioid,and the sleep quality score on the 1 st night after operation were significantly decreased in group B(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the ground movement distance of in different time periods and inci-dence of adverse events among the three groups.Conclusion Compound betamethasone adjuvant can reduce the incidence of breakthrough pain after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty under sciatic nerve com-bined with femoral nerve block,provide perfect analgesic effect,reduce postoperative opioid consumption,and improve the sleep quality of patients on the first night after surgery.
