Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Objective To investigate the common diseases and the causes of diseases in Chinese Antarctic researchers,so as to provide reference for the medical support.Methods Medical records of 1 127 people with injuries and diseases who participated in four Antarctic scientific expeditions(the 31st,35th,36th,and 39th time)were retrospectively analyzed.The causes of the injuries and diseases as well as the implications for nursing were investigated.Results The top 10 diseases in the four Antarctic expeditions were acute soft tissue injury,dermatomycosis,pharyngitis,insomnia,periodontitis,gastroenteritis,motion sickness,acute upper respiratory infection,primary hypertension,and frostbite.The causes of the diseases in the four Antarctic expeditions were analyzed,and the nursing of different diseases was proposed.Conclusion It is necessary to take preventive measures based on the characteristics of injuries and diseases during Antarctic expeditions,so as to effectively prevent and treat these diseases and provide more comprehensive medical support for Antarctic scientific expeditions.

This study aims to explore the medication rules and mechanisms of treating chronic renal failure(CRF) by Jinling medical school based on data mining, network pharmacology, and experimental validation systematically and deeply. Firstly, the study selected the papers published by the inherited clinicians in Jinling medical school in Chinese journals using the subject headings named "traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) + chronic renal failure", "TCM + chronic renal inefficiency", or "TCM + consumptive disease" in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database and screened TCM formulas for treating CRF according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study analyzed the frequency of use of single TCM and the four properties, five tastes, channel tropism, and efficacy of TCM used with high frequency and performed association rule and clustering analysis, respectively. As a result, a total of 215 TCM formulas and 235 different single TCM were screened, respectively. The TCM used with high frequency included Astragali Radix, Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Poria, and Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma(top 5). The single TCM characterized by "cold properties, sweet flavor, and restoring spleen channel" and the TCM with the efficacy of tonifying deficiency had the highest frequency of use, respectively. Then, the TCM with the rules of "blood-activating and stasis-removing" and "diuretic and dampness-penetrating" appeared. In addition, the core combination of TCM [(Hexin Formula, HXF)] included "Astragali Radix, Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Poria, Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix, and Angelicae Sinensis Radix". The network pharmacology analysis showed that HXF had 91 active compounds and 250 corresponding protein targets including prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2(PTGS2), PTGS1, sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5(SCN5A), cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1(CHRM1), and heat shock protein 90 alpha family class A member 1(HSP90AA1)(top 5). Gene Ontology(GO) function analysis revealed that the core targets of HXF predominantly affected biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions such as positive regulation of transcription by ribonucleic acid polymerase Ⅱ and DNA template transcription, formation of cytosol, nucleus, and plasma membrane, and identical protein binding and enzyme binding. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) analysis revealed that CRF-related genes were involved in a variety of signaling pathways and cellular metabolic pathways, primarily involving "phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)-protein kinase B(Akt) pathway" and "advanced glycation end products-receptor for advanced glycation end products". Molecular docking results showed that the active components in HXF such as isomucronulatol 7-O-glucoside, betulinic acid, sitosterol, and przewaquinone B might be crucial in the treatment of CRF. Finally, a modified rat model with renal failure induced by adenine was used, and the in vivo experimental confirmation was performed based on the above-mentioned predictions. The results verify that HXF can regulate mitochondrial autophagy in the kidneys and the PI3K-Akt-mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR) signaling pathway activation at upstream, so as to alleviate renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis and then delay the progression of CRF.

Objective To screen for key genes and important pathways common for different etiologies of acute kidney injury(AKI)by pathway-associated deep neural network and multiple machine learning algorithms.Methods AKI microarray datasets GSE30718,GSE37838,GSE53769,GSE108113,GSE125779,GSE99325,and GSE174020 downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database were merged,including 60 kidney samples from AKI patients and 79 kidney samples from healthy controls.They were divided(8∶2)into training sets and test sets,and were used to train and evaluate pathway-associated deep neural network and 4 machine learning algorithms,including least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO),random forest(RF),support vector machine-recursive feature elimination(SVM-RFE),and extreme gradient boosting(XgBoost),to screen for common key genes and pathways of different etiologies of AKI.The downloaded datasets GSE99340 and GSE1563 were merged,including 43 kidney samples from AKI patients and 36 kidney samples from healthy controls,which were used as external validation sets for LASSO model and nomogram performance test based on the final screened genes.The pathway-associated deep neural network and machine learning algorithms were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves,precision,recall,accuracy,and F1-score.The immune cell infiltration characteristics were explored in AKI via cell-type identification by estimating relative subsets of RNA transcripts(CIBERSORT),and Pearson correlation coefficients were used to evaluate the correlation between the final screened common key genes and immune cell infiltration levels.Results The pathway-associated deep neural network trained by 5-fold cross validation produced an area under curve(AUC)of 0.914 5±0.007 0,a precision of 0.750 0±0.044 0,a recall of 0.923 1±0.048 0,an accuracy of 0.838 7±0.016 0,and an F1-score of 0.827 6±0.020 0 in the test set,yielding a robust and highly accurate classification performance for AKI,and identified key pathways and a subset of candidate genes.The 4 machine learning algorithms all achieved high discriminative performance for AKI in the test set with AUC≥0.860,precision≥0.750,recall≥0.800,and F1-score≥0.774,and screened 7 common key genes for AKI with different etiologies,including CD86,C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10(CXCL10),dynamin 2(DNM2),proto-oncogene FOS,transcription factor 12(TCF12),VGF nerve growth factor inducible(VGF),and A kinase anchoring protein 5(AKAP5).Based on the final screened common key genes,the LASSO model had an AUC of 0.940 4 for the test set and an AUC of 0.944 4 for the external validation,and the model showed a very high discriminatory ability for the AKI,which demonstrated the overall regulatory performance of the genes.The nomogram constructed based on the screened 7 genes demonstrated the highest classification performance with an AUC of 0.928 9,validating the outstanding contribution and overall action performance of the screened individual genes.Immune cell infiltration analysis showed that there were significant differences in B cells na?ve,mast cells activated,monocytes,macrophages M1,B cells memory,and dendritic cells activated between AKI samples and healthy control samples(all P＜0.05).Macrophages M1 and monocytes were positively correlated with CD86 and CXCL10,mast cells activated were positively correlated with FOS,and B cells na?ve were negatively correlated with CD86 and CXCL10(all P＜0.01).Mast cells activated were positively correlated with VGF and negatively correlated with CD86 and TCF12,while memory B cells were positively correlated with CD86(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Strategy combining pathway-associated deep neural network and multiple machine learning classifiers can mine high-value key genes from high-dimensional,complex and heterogeneous transcriptomic data as potential targets for therapeutic interventions in AKI.

Risks of food safety induced by small molecule drug residues in animal food and environment have become an increasing public concern,so it is necessary to develop highly sensitive and easy-to-operate techniques to detect small molecules.Herein,a metasurface plasma resonance(MetaSPR)sensor chip coupled with gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)was developed for detection of enrofloxacin(ENR)based on competitive immunoassay.The detection range of the sensor for ENR was 0.025-3.2 ng/mL,and the detection limit(3σ)was 20 pg/mL.The biosensor showed excellent performance including high selectivity,good stability,ease to operate and high throughput,etc.The developed method was applied to detection of ENR residues in real samples,with recoveies of 96.0% -105.0%.The proposed sensing strategy provided new technique reference for detection of other small molecules in the field of residue analysis in food safety and environment monitoring.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of combined rituximab and intensive chemotherapy for sporadic adult Burkitt lymphoma (BL) .Methods:This retrospective study examined the clinical and survival data of 30 patients newly diagnosed with BL between July 2011 and February 2023 at the Blood Diseases Hospital. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and the log-rank test was used for univariate analysis of prognostic factors.Results:The median age of the 30 patients was 43 years (24 - 66 years), and the male to female ratio was 3: 2. Extranodal invasion was present in 80% of the patients, with involvement of the bone marrow in 53.3% and central nervous system in 10.0%. The Ann Arbor stage was Ⅲ and Ⅳ in 86.7%. According to the number of Burkitt Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (BL-IPI) risk factors, patients were classified as low risk (0) in 20.0%, intermediate risk (1) in 43.3%, and high risk (≥2) in 36.7%. All patients were treated with an induction regimen of rituximab combined with intensive chemotherapy, with objective and complete response rates of 80.0% and 76.7%, respectively. The median follow-up was 49 months (6-153 months), and the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were both (76.7±7.7) %. All patients with limited stage ( n=4) achieved continuous complete remission (CCR). Patients who had high risk, advanced stage sensitive to induction therapy ( n=10) sequentially received first-line autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) as consolidation therapy; 9 patients achieved CCR, whereas 1 patient with central nervous system invasion developed early disease progression and died. The BL-IPI low, intermediate, and high risk groups had respective 5-year PFS rates of (83.3±15.2) %, 100.0%, and (45.5±15.0) % ( P=0.0069) and OS rates of (83.3±15.2) %, 100.0%, and (45.5±15.0) % ( P=0.0075). The main adverse effects of induction therapy were myelosuppression and secondary infections, which were effectively managed by appropriate symptomatic treatment. Univariate analysis demonstrated that worse PFS was associated with BL-IPI score ≥2 ( HR=4.90, 95% CI 1.02-23.45, P=0.0329) ; extranodal invasion at ≥2 sites ( HR=12.62, 95% CI 2.59-61.62, P=0.0021) ; and failure to achieve first complete response (CR1) after induction therapy ( HR=31.86, 95% CI 4.19-242.20, P<0.0001) . Conclusions:Intensive immunochemotherapy regimens were effective and well-tolerated by adult patients with highly aggressive BL. Treatment efficacy was ideal in patients with limited-stage disease, whereas prognosis was unsatisfactory in patients with high-risk BL-IPI. Sequential first-line auto-HSCT consolidation therapy may further improve outcomes in patients with high-risk advanced-stage disease who are sensitive to induction therapy. BL-IPI score ≥2, extranodal invasion at ≥2 sites, and failure to achieve CR1 after induction therapy were adverse prognostic factors in adult patients with BL.

BackgroundAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by age-inappropriate inattention， excessive activities incongruous with setting， and emotional impulsivity. Subthreshold ADHD （sADHD） is clinically defined as the presence of ADHD symptoms that do not meet the full diagnostic criteria for ADHD. Children with sADHD exhibit deficits in executive function， demonstrate more conduct， learning， and anxiety-related problems compared to typically developing children， and show even poorer working memory performance than children diagnosed with ADHD. Currently， there is limited epidemiological research on sADHD in China， with few studies simultaneously investigating the prevalence of both ADHD and sADHD in children. ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of ADHD and sADHD among children aged 6–13 years in Chongqing， analyzing their distribution characteristics within this population， with the aim of providing references for developing preventive measures against both ADHD and sADHD. MethodsFrom October to November 2023， a total of 3 398 students in grades 1–6 from six primary schools in Jiangbei District， Chongqing were selected using a stratified cluster random sampling method. The occurrence of ADHD and sADHD was evaluated by using the short version （18-item version） of the Swanson， Nolan， and Pelham IV rating scales （SNAP-IV） and the Chinese vision of Schedule for Affective Disorder and Schizophrenia for School-aged Children-Present and Lifetime Version （K-SADS-PL）. ResultsThe ADHD detection rate among children in Chongqing was 1.90% （95% CI： 0.014–0.024）. Boys showed a significantly higher ADHD detection rate than girls （χ²=7.733， P=0.005）. No statistically significant differences were found in ADHD detection rates across different grades or age groups （χ²=7.347， 12.362， P>0.05）. The sADHD detection rate was 6.32% （95% CI： 0.054–0.072）. Similarly， boys exhibited significantly higher sADHD detection rates than girls （χ²=21.005， P<0.01）. Significant differences emerged across different grades （χ²=20.559， P=0.001）， while no statistically significant difference was observed in age groups （χ²=12.070， P=0.060）. ConclusionThe ADHD detection rates were comparable across all grade levels and age groups from 6–13 years old. Second-grade children demonstrated notably higher sADHD rates compared to other grades， while boys demonstrated higher prevalence rates than girls for both ADHD and sADHD. ［Funded by Science and Health Joint Medical Research Project in Jiangbei District， Chongqing City in the Second Half of 2023 （number， 2023JBKWLH022）］

Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective:To investigate the application and safety of cardiopulmonary bypass precharge with 4% succinylated gelatin during surgery for children with cyanotic congenital heart disease (CCHD).Methods:A prospective case-control study was conducted. One hundred and thirty children with CCHD undergoing cardiac surgery admitted to Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital in 2021-2024 were selected as study participants. Participants were divided into control group ( n=65) and gelatin group ( n=65) by random number table method based on the principle of matching baseline characteristics between groups. Children in the control group were pre-filled with 10-20 ml/kg of fresh frozen plasma, while the gelatin group was pre-filled with 10-20 ml/kg of 4% succinyl gelatin. Thrombelastogram parameters [fibrin formation time, blood clot strength, fibrinogen maximum amplitude, fibrinogen content], hematological parameters [platelet count, prothrombin time (PT), prothrombin activity (PTA), hemoglobin], myocardial function [troponin, creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB)] and liver-kidney function were compared before and after treatment.Measurement data with normal distribution was expressed as " xˉ±s", independent sample t-test was used on comparison between groups, paired t-test was used for intra-group comparisons before and after treatment. Counting data was expressed as rate or composition ratio, χ2 test was used on comparison between groups. Results:Comparison between groups showed that before treatment, the difference of various thromboelastography parameters, haematological parameters, myocardial function indexes, liver and kidney function indexes were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Compared to before treatment, R, PTA, troponin and creatine kinase increased in both groups after treatment [control group:(51±4) s vs. (43±3) s, (98±15)% vs. (95±12)%, (0.624±0.085) μg/L vs. (0.040±0.005) μg/L, (711±50) U/L vs. (96±11) U/L, (60±7) U/L vs. (22±4) U/L, t values were -17.92、-2.13、-104.63、-165.15、-57.43, respectively, all P<0.001; gelatin group: (51±4) s vs. (42±3) s, (100±16)% vs. (94±13)%, (0.631±0.113) μg/L vs. (0.041±0.004) μg/L, (717±52) U/L vs.(97±11) U/L, (62±7) U/L vs.(24±4) U/L, t values were -19.79、-3.09、-81.31、-157.70、-54.67, respectively, all P<0.001], while MA, MAf, FLEV, platelet count, PT and hemoglobin decreased [control group: (50±4) mmHg vs. (57±5) mmHg、(5.5±0.9) mmHg vs. (13.8±1.3) mmHg、(1.58±0.22) g/L vs.(2.64±0.31) g/L、(217±21)×10 9/L vs. (275±25)×10 9/L、(13.3±0.5) s vs.(14.7±0.8) s、(116±12) g/L vs.(127±17) g/L, t values were 14.79、61.26、32.25、20.58、17.21、6.09,respectively, all P<0.001; gelato group: (49±3) mmHg vs. (57±5) mmHg、(5.7±0.8) mmHg vs. (14.0±1.4) mmHg、(1.62±0.27) g/L vs.(2.59±0.26) g/L、(214±20)×10 9/L vs.(273±23)×10 9/L、(13.4±0.5) s vs.(14.7±0.8) s、(114±12) g/L vs.(128±17) g/L, t values were 16.34、62.05、29.51、22.77、14.91、7.41, respectively, all P<0.001], but the differences between groups were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The difference of albumin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and creatinine before and after treatment were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusion:4% succinylated gelatin does not increase the risk of coagulation dysfunction during perioperative period in children with CCHD. It has small influence on liver-kidney function and has high safety.

Objective To observe the efficacy of self-guided attention network for detecting responsible lesions related to cerebral palsy(CP)in children with periventricular white matter injury(PVWMI).Methods Totally 383 children with PVWMI were retrospectively enrolled and divided into CP group(n=243)and non-CP group(n=140),while 214 children without obvious brain abnormality on brain MRI were taken as control group.ROI of 4 key anatomical structures related to CP,i.e.centrum semiovale,posterior limb of internal capsule,cerebral peduncle and thalamus were delineated on T1WI,while responsible lesions related to CP within the key anatomical structures were labeled on T2WI,and the images were then registrated and used as input of the networks.ResNet34 network was adopted combined with attention and self-guided networks to train the network for detecting responsible lesions related to CP in children with PVWMI,and their efficacies were evaluated.The optimal network was screened,and its efficacy for segmenting the key anatomical structures was evaluated.Results Self-guided attention network was the optimal network,its area under the curve(AUC)for detecting lesions was 0.794-0.914,and the Dice similarity coefficient for segmenting the key anatomical structures was 0.702-0.764.Conclusion Self-guided attention network could be used for preliminarily detecting responsible lesions related to CP in children with PVWMI.
