Objective:To evaluate the alveolar ridge preservation effect of immediate implantation at extraction site with the im-proved CBCT measuring method.Methods:Eighty patients with extraction site were divided into test group A,B,C and control group.The patients were treated by means of immediate implant placement combined with large flap surgery,guided bone regener-ation(GBR)using mass Bio-Oss bone particles in the group A(the thickness of facial bone wall＜1 mm);The patients were trea-ted by means of immediate implant placement combined without flap surgery and bone graft in the group B(the thickness of facial bone wall ≥1 mm and＜2 mm)and C(the thickness of facial bone wall ≥2 mm),the CGF was implanted in the jumping space only when the thickness of jumping space was＞2 mm.In the control group,the alveolar sockets healed naturally without any in-tervention or treatment.CBCT was taken before surgery,immediately after surgery,and 6 months after surgery to evaluate the height and width of alveolar bone,the thickness of facial bone wall and jumping space.Results:The reduction of alveolar ridge height in group A,B,C and control group was(0.41±0.13,0.94±0.18,0.59±0.12,1.31±0.19)mm,The reduction of alveolar ridge width in group A,B,C and control group was(0.93±0.10,1.48±0.21,1.12±0.17,1.66±0.16)mum.The re-sults of four groups were statistically different(F=177.0,P＜0.001;F=125.3,P＜0.001).The alveolar ridge thickness of facial bone wall in group A,B,C and con-trol group was(0.98±0.25,2.39±0.28)mm,(1.43±0.52,2.10±0.33)mm,(2.17±0.41,2.79±0.27)mm before surgery and six months after immediate implantation.The results of each group were statistically different between before surgery and six months after immediate implantation(t=16.45,P＜0.001;t=7.357,P＜0.001;t=5.488,P＜0.001).Patients in three test groups had the thickness of jumping space＞2 mm and ≤2 mm,and the reduction of alveolar ridge width was(0.78±0.18,0.88±0.17)mm.The results were statistically different(t=17.18,P=0.018).Conclusion:The alveolar ridge preservation was obtained by means of immediate implant placement combined with large flap surgery,guided bone regeneration(GBR)using mass Bio-Oss bone particles at extraction site with the thickness of facial bone wall＜1 mm;The alveolar ridge preservation was obtained without flap surgery and GBR at extraction site with the thickness of facial bone wall≥1 mm.The preservation of soft and hard tissue was better in the axial palatal side of immediate implantation with the thickness of jumping space＞2 mm than that with the thickness of jumping space≤2 mm.

Objective:To analyze the current status of global clinical trial for botulinum toxin (BTX) drugs, and to provide a reference for BTX drug research priorities and trends.Methods:All registered BTX drug-related clinical trials from the inception of the platforms until December 2024 were retrieved from the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) and the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) Clinical Trial Registration and Information Disclosure Platform of the National Medical Products Administration of China (referred to as the CDE Platform). The data were statistically analyzed using Excel 2021. The analysis was conducted from aspects such as registration volume and annual trend, distribution of conducting countries, drug type, study type and recruitment situation, and indications.Results:A total of 2 053 clinical trials related to BTX were included. The total number of registered trials showed an increasing trend year by year. The country with the largest number of clinical trials was the United States, with 571 trials, while China ranked third with 190 trials. Among the drug formulations, the injection form accounted for the highest proportion (99.02%, 2 033/2 053). A few new formulations included topical ointments, nasal sprays, and eye drops. In terms of drug serotypes and sources, the wild-type BTX-A projects accounted for a relatively high proportion (97.86%, 2 009/2 053), and also included a few wild-type BTX-B, wild-type BTX-E, recombinant BTX-AB, and recombinant BTX-A projects. In terms of research types, 90.4% (1 856/2 053) were intervention studies, 87.5% (1 796/2 053) of the clinical trials did not restrict gender, 90.7% (1 862/2 053) of the clinical trials recruited subjects covering adults, and 9.3% (191/2 053) of the clinical trials only recruited minors. The research indications covered various disciplines, such as skin beauty, neurology, urology, orthopedics, and ophthalmology. In recent years, the types of diseases registered for clinical trials had expanded significantly on the basis of the originally approved indications.Conclusion:Innovative directions in BTX drug research, including BTX drugs of different serotypes, recombinant BTX based on recombinant gene technology, BTX formulations for non-injectable delivery, and innovative areas of clinical application, are driving its continued clinical research.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between tooth movement and profile change in patients with class Ⅱ division 1 malocclusion.Methods:Pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalograms of 42 patients [10 males and 32 females, (23.8±6.3) years old, mean treatment time: 1.9 years] with class Ⅱ division 1 malocclusion were collected in Department of Oral & Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery, Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2012 to November 2017. The patients were treated with extraction of four first premolars or two maxillary first premolars. Cephalometric analysis was carried out before and after treatment. Thirty parameters were measured. The changes of soft and hard tissue after orthodontic treatment and their correlations were analyzed using bivariate linear regression. Related factors affecting the upper and lower lip, nasolabial angle (NLA) and mentolabial angle (MLA) were analyzed according to the standardized regression coefficient ( Beta). Results:Among all the 30 parameters, 18 parameters were statistically different before and after treatment. After treatment, upper central incisor sagittal distance [(63.87±7.14) mm] and upper lip sagittal distance [(77.73±7.60) mm] were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The changes in 14 parameters after treatment showed linear relationship including strong positive correlation between upper lip sagittal retraction and upper central incisor sagittal retraction ( r=0.649, P<0.01). There were moderate positive correlations between upper lip and upper central incisor vertical movement ( r=0.544, P<0.01). While the sagittal change of gnathion and the Y-axis angle showed moderate negative correlations ( r=0.537, P<0.01). The stepwise multiple linear regression showed that the retraction of upper lip process was correlated with the retraction of upper central incisor, the increase of occlusal plane angle and the increase of upper central incisor angle, which was most correlated with the retraction of upper central incisor ( Beta=0.79). The downward displacement of upper lip process was correlated with the downward displacement of upper incisor, the decrease of upper central incisor angle, the decrease of the distance between maxillary first molar and palatal plane, and the increase of occlusal plane angle, which was more correlated with the downward displacement of upper incisor and the increase of occlusal plane angle ( Beta=0.59). The downward displacement of lower lip process was correlated with the downward displacement of upper incisor and lower incisor, which was more correlated with the upper incisor ( Beta=0.36). Conclusions:The relationship among nose, lips and chin was more coordinated. Incisor retraction had significant influence on lip prominence, and the lower lip position was highly related to the movement of upper incisor in sagittal and vertical dimension after orthodontic treatment in patients with class Ⅱ division 1 malocclusion. However, tooth movement had limited impact on the chin position.
