BACKGROUND:Developmental dysplasia of hip refers to the deformity of acetabulum and proximal femur,which can lead to hip instability and hip osteoarthritis. Periacetabular osteotomy is the main treatment for non-terminal developmental dysplasia of hip in adolescents and adults. Pelvic inclination plays an important role in biomechanics of hip joint,which determines the stress direction of hip joint. In hip joint diseases,pelvic compensatory tilt can occur to minimize the abnormal stress of hip joint.OBJECTIVE:To observe whether periacetabular osteotomy changes pelvic sagittal tilt in patients with developmental dysplasia of hip,and to investigate the effect of acetabular covering on pelvic sagittal tilt.METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on 29 patients who underwent periacetabular osteotomy due to developmental dysplasia of hip in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from August 2019 to June 2022. Anteroposterior X-rays of the standing pelvis were collected before and 6 months after surgery. The pelvic tilt parameters,including the lateral center-edge angle,pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint distance,pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint midline distance,sacrofemoral-pubic angle,and pelvic tilt,were measured. Hip functions of all patients were assessed by hip disability and osteoarthritis score and Harris score before and 6 months after surgery.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The lateral center-edge angle,pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint midline distance,and sacrofemoral-pubic angle were significantly increased 6 months postoperatively compared to preoperative values (P<0.05). Tonnis angle and pelvic tilt were significantly decreased (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in pubic symphysis to sacroiliac joint distance between preoperative and postoperative measurements (P>0.05). (2) The hip disability and osteoarthritis scores and Harris scores were significantly increased 6 months after operation (P<0.01). (3) It is indicated that periacetabular osteotomy surgery can significantly improve acetabular coverage and the pelvis showed significant anteversion changes in patients with developmental dysplasia of hip.

Objective:To explore the structural equation model to explore the levels of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) and various risk factors in the feet and ankle of China's occupational population, providing scientific basis for for preventing WMSDs in feet and ankles.Methods:Data of 73497 national occupational epidemiological cases were selected from June 2018 to December 2023 used the Chinese version of the Electronic Questionnaire on Musculoskeletal Disorders. The adverse ergonomic factors and their source classification standard and confirmatory factor analysis were used to investigate foot and ankle WMSDs and their related risk factors (including individual factors, work organization, work posture, work type, fatigue, etc.) in key occupational groups in China, and structural equation model hypothesis, fitting, verification, and path and intermediary effect analysis were carried out. The model fit evaluation indexes included Chi-square specific degrees of freedom ( χ2/ df), gauge fit index (NFI), Tucker Lewis index (TLI), goodness of Fit index (GFI), adjusted Goodness of Fit index (AGFI) and approximate root mean square error (RMSEA) . Results:A total of 73497 occupational workers were surveyed, with local muscle fatigue and WMSDs incidence rates in the feet and ankles being 17.17% and 12.06%, respectively. The fitting index of the adjusted structural equation model basically meets the standard (GFI=1, AGFI=1, RMESA=0.042, NFI=0.716, TLI=0.663). The top three factors affecting feet and ankle WMSDs are feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, and work organization, with standardized path coefficients of 0.221, 0.105, and 0.095, respectively. The top two factors affecting feet and ankle muscle fatigue are work organization and work type, with standardized path coefficients of 0.548 and 0.383, respectively. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, work organization, and work posture have a direct effect on feet and ankle WMSDs, with effect values of 0.221, 0.105, 0.095, and 0.077, respectively. The organization and type of work can also have indirect effects through feet and ankle muscle fatigue, with effect values of 0.121 and 0.084, respectively.Conclusion:Feet and ankle muscle fatigue has a direct impact on WMSDs, and plays a mediating role between ankle and ankle WMSDs caused by work organization and work type. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue is an important pathway leading to feet and ankle WMSDs. It is recommended that employers and managers detect job fatigue early and take corresponding prevention and intervention measures, which can play a key role in preventing feet and ankle WMSDs.

This paper reported a case of fetal congenital chloride diarrhea (CCD) indicated by prenatal ultrasound and confirmed by whole-exome sequencing. At 26 weeks and two days of gestation, a routine prenatal ultrasound revealed fetal bowel dilation and numerous floating echogenic particles in the amniotic fluid, suggesting the possibility of CCD. Multiple follow-up ultrasounds in late pregnancy showed persistent bowel dilation, polyhydramnios with numerous floating echogenic particles, and fetal development larger than the gestational age. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger validation revealed two compound heterozygous mutations in the fetal SLC26A3 gene: c.2006C>A (p.S669*) inherited from the mother and c.1355T>A (p.L452Q) inherited from the father, leading to a diagnosis of CCD. Postnatally, the infant exhibited persistent watery diarrhea. Based on prenatal ultrasound and diagnostic results, the infant was immediately given intravenous and oral electrolyte supplementation after birth, preventing severe electrolyte imbalance. As of June 2024, the infant was five months old, with follow-up showing good growth and development.

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.

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 address the relation among pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), genetic vulnerability and ovarian cancer (OC) risk, we assessed the association between PID and OC risk, alongside the interplay with germline homologous recombination repair (gHR) mutation, utilizing the UK Biobank. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study in the UK Biobank by tracking OC incidences between individuals with and without a PID history. Identification of gHR mutations (BRCA1, BRCA2, RAD51C, RAD51D, BRIP1) carriers were accomplished through paired whole-exome sequencing data. We used Cox’s regression models to evaluate the hazard ratios (HRs) for OC risks under PID. Results: In the large prospective cohort study, the adjusted HR for OC in patients with PID was 1.45 (95% confidence interval [CI]=0.90, 2.32) compared with those with non-PID.Intriguingly, age-stratified analysis unveiled a positive association between PID history and OC risk in those aged under 55 years (HR=1.92; 95% CI=1.02, 3.63). Moreover, individuals aged younger than 55 years harboring both a history of PID and gHR mutations exhibited the highest risk of OC (HR=7.40; 95% CI=1.03, 53.10). Conclusion An association between PID and OC risk emerged, notably in the subgroup aged younger than 55 years old. Individuals with both a PID history and gHR mutations exhibited the highest risk of OC. These findings imply PID as a potential precursor for OC, underscoring the importance of early intervention, particularly in the younger population with gHR mutations.

Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.
