BACKGROUND:In recent years,the application of exosomes of periodontal ligament stem cells in periodontal tissue regeneration engineering has been widely studied,but the effect of exosomes on periodontal ligament stem cells derived from inflammatory environment is still unclear.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of exosomes secreted by periodontal ligament stem cells from healthy and inflammatory environments on the proliferation and differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells from inflammatory environments.METHODS:Human periodontal ligament stem cells from healthy and inflammatory tissues were isolated and cultured by enzyme digestion method.Exosomes were extracted from two kinds of periodontal ligament stem cells using ultracentrifugation.Passage 3 periodontal ligament stem cells derived from inflammatory tissue were selected and cultured in three groups.Cells in the blank group were cultured routinely.The healthy exosome group was added with exosomes secreted by peripheral ligament stem cells derived from healthy tissue.The inflammatory exosome group was added with exosomes secreted by human periodontal ligament stem cells derived from inflammatory tissue.Cell proliferation and cloning were detected.The expression of alkaline phosphatase,the formation of mineralized nodules,and the expression of mRNA and protein of genes related to osteogenesis were detected under osteogenic differentiation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) CCK-8 assay and clonal formation test showed that compared with the blank group,two kinds of exosomes could promote the proliferation and colony formation of periodontal ligament stem cells from inflammatory tissue (P<0.05),and the effect of the healthy exosome group was stronger than that of the inflammatory exosome group (P<0.05).(2) Alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining showed that compared with the blank group,the two kinds of exosomes could promote the expression of alkaline phosphatase and the formation of mineralized nodules in periodontal ligament stem cells from inflammatory tissue,and the promoting effect of the healthy exosome group was stronger than that of the inflammatory exosome group.RT-PCR and western blot assay showed that compared with the blank group,the two kinds of exosomes could promote the expression of alkaline phosphatase,RUNX2,and type Ⅰ collagen mRNA and protein in periodontal ligament stem cells from inflammatory tissue (P<0.05).The promoting effect of the healthy exosome group was stronger than that of the inflammatory exosome group (P<0.05).(3) The results showed that exosomes secreted by human periodontal ligament stem cells could promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells derived from inflammatory environments,and the promoting effect of exosomes secreted by human periodontal ligament stem cells derived from healthy tissues was better than that from human periodontal ligament stem cells derived from inflammatory tissues.

ObjectiveTo investigate the status and dietary intake risk of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables sold in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province from 2020 to 2023, so as to provide a scientific basis for the regulation and management of pesticide in the future. MethodsIn accordance with the requirements and methods specified in the “National Food Contamination and Hazardous Factor Risk Monitoring Work Manual” and the current corresponding national food inspection standards for various foods, a total of 807 samples of vegetables and fruits from various counties and districts of Wenzhou City were collected for testing and analysis. Eventually, 23 types of pesticides with a detection rate greater than 5% and those exceeding the standard were selected for dietary intake risk assessment. ResultsFrom 2020 to 2023, the overall detection rate of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables monitored in Wenzhou was 71.62%, with an overall exceedance rate of 5.27%. From the results of the monitoring of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables, fresh legume vegetables had the highest detection rate of 90.00%. Among the six major categories of pesticides monitored, fungicides in vegetables and fruits had the highest detection rates of 68.18% and 85.03%, respectively. The highest exceedance rate in vegetables was organophosphorus pesticides, accounting for 2.85%, while in fruits, neonicotinoid pesticides had the highest exceedance rate of 3.21%. From the perspective of sampling time, the peak detection rate of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables in Wenzhou occurred in June and October. The index of food safety (IFS) of the 23 pesticides with a detection rate higher than 5% ranged from 0.000 7 to 0.694 2 based on the 95% monitoring value of pesticide residues, which were all less than 1. Calculated at maximum content, the IFS values of dithiocarbamate (calculated by CS₂), chlorothalonil and propiconazole were all greater than 1, indicating that the maximum detection values of the three pesticides exceeded the acceptable safety risk. The risk level of acute dietary intake of the 23 pesticides ranged from 1.26% to 52.65%. ConclusionThe overall situation of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables sold in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023 is favourable, but the exceedance rate of pesticide in some fruits and vegetables is high. Special attention should be paid to the pesticide residues of fungicides, neonicotinoid insecticides and organophosphorus pesticides in fresh legume vegetables, bulb vegetables and some fruits sold in Wenzhou, such as acetamiprid in bayberry and cowpea, dimethomorph in strawberry, chlorpyrifos in leek, etc., and monitoring of pesticide residues in food need to be strengthened.

Through collecting the existing clinical evidences on acupuncture and moxibustion for urticaria, the distribution of evidence in this field was mapped. A systematic search of Chinese and English literature was conducted in CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, EMbase, and Cochrane Library for treatment of urticaria with acupuncture and moxibustion, published up to December 31, 2023 since inception of each database. The research status in this field was summarized using an evidence mapping approach, and methodological quality was assessed. A total of 323 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 22 systematic reviews were included. The number of studies on acupuncture and moxibustion for urticaria has been increasing, with a significant rise in recent years. In most RCTs, the study scale was small, and the subjects focused on chronic spontaneous urticaria in adolescents and middle-aged adults, aged 14 to 60 years. Regarding the intervention measures, the single therapy of acupuncture and moxibustion was predominant such as acupoint injection, acupoint embedding thread, and filiform needling. In acupuncture with filiform needles, the commonly used acupoints were Quchi (LI11), Xuehai (SP10), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Zusanli (ST36) and Hegu (LI4). The main outcome measures referred to effectiveness rate, score of disease severity, recurrence rate, laboratory indexes, and score of quality of life; and the short-term effect was evaluated specifically. The overall methodological quality of the included studies was relatively low. It is suggested that the future research should focus on large-scale, multi-center, high-quality clinical trials, optimize the protocols for acupuncture and moxibustion intervention, standardize the outcomes, and draw the attention to the evaluation of long-term efficacy, so as to provide clinical evidences of high certainty for urticaria treated with acupuncture and moxibustion.

OBJECTIVE: To reveal the gap between the evidence of systematic reviews (SRs) and clinical concerns by systematically summarizing the evidence on acupuncture and moxibustion for frozen shoulder and investigating the concerns and needs of clinicians in treatment with acupuncture and moxibustion for this disease. METHODS: The articles of SR and Meta-analysis on acupuncture and moxibustion for frozen shoulder were searched from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, EMbase and Cochrane Library, starting from the inception of each database up to December 31st, 2022. Two researchers screened the articles and extracted data independently. Using AMSTAR-2, the methodological quality of the included studies was evaluated. Based on systematic reviews and expert discussion, a questionnaire on clinical concerns of acupuncture and moxibustion for frozen shoulder was developed and distributed to clinicians. The discrepancies between the evidence and clinical concerns were compared from 5 dimensions, including population, interventions, control measures, outcome indicators and review time points. RESULTS: The evidence gaps existed between SRs and clinical concerns. In the existing studies, the needs of personalized treatment were not fully considered in terms of different syndromes/patterns of frozen shoulder and stages of illness, the outcome indicators were not employed properly, the time for outcome measurement was vague, the control groups were set up outside of standardization, and the methodological quality was lower. CONCLUSION It is suggested that future studies should improve the quality of methodology, lay more consideration to different patient groups, optimize outcome indicators and standardize the setting of control groups, so as to better meet the needs of patients and achieve the best match between evidence and clinicians' needs.

This study analyzes the legal application of a dispute over employer identification in a case of occupational heat illness caused by part-time work to clarifying matters related to employer determination in occupational disease diagnosis using a case analysis method and factual reconstruction. The analysis is based on relevant civil laws and regulations, occupational disease diagnosis laws and regulations, and jurisprudential theories. The occupational disease diagnostic institution identified the part-time employer as responsible for the patient′s heat illness, which was both reasonable and lawful. This attribution safeguarded the rights of the worker, the primary employer, and the part-time entity. In occupational disease diagnosis, attention should be paid to de facto employment relationship, and the principle of "accountability lies with the actual employer at the time of the incident" should be followed to standardize employer identification. The health administrative department has supervisory responsibilities over occupational disease diagnoses. Workers′ compensation rights can be protected through the advance payment mechanism for work-related injury insurance. It is recommended to further improve internal procedures for occupational disease diagnosis, strengthen the dissemination of relevant laws and regulations and enhance the capabilities of occupational disease diagnosis physicians, to further protect workers' occupational health and their associated legal rights.

Objective:To develop and validate a deep learning-based multimodal model integrating clinical and radiomic features for predicting acute kidney injury（AKI）risk after partial nephrectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 416 patients who underwent partial nephrectomy at Zhongshan Hospital，Fudan University from January 2023 to January 2025. The cohort included 100 AKI patients［defined by a ≥ 25% reduction in postoperative evaluated glomerular filtration rate（eGFR）within 48 hours sustained for >24 hours］and 316 non-AKI patients（1∶3 ratio，randomly matched with 16 additional cases for redundancy）. Clinical and radiomic features were extracted from preoperative contrast-enhanced CT scans using PyRadiomics. Demographics included 259 males and 158 females，with a median age of 57（49，65）years，body mass index of（24.1 ± 3.3）kg/m2，preoperative eGFR of（88.5 ± 18.3）ml/（min·1.73 m2），postoperative eGFR（48-hour）of（76.0 ± 21.9）ml/（min·1.73 m2），Zhongshan Score（ZSscore）of 7.34 ± 2.01，and R.E.N.A.L. score of 7.50 ± 1.71. All tumors were T 1a stage. Patients were divided into training（n = 312）and test（n = 104）sets（3∶1 ratio）. A clinical model was constructed via multivariate logistic regression，while radiomic and combined（clinical + radiomic）models utilized an artificial neural network（ANN）with 1 input layer，5 hidden layers，1 output layer，and 10 5 training epochs. Model performance was evaluated by using receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curves and area under the curve（AUC），and was compared to the Martini model. Feature contributions were interpreted via SHapley Additive exPlanations（SHAP）. Results:In the test set，the results of multivariate logistic regression showed that patient’s weight，preoperative eGFR，R.E.N.A.L. score，surgical approach，and operation time were risk factors for AKI（ P < 0.05）. The AUC of the clinical feature prediction model constructed based on the above factors was 0.852（95% CI 0.775?0.929）. In the test set，the AUC of the Martini model was 0.725（95% CI 0.565?0.791）. The radiomic model，trained on 1 315 imaging features，achieved an AUC of 0.898（95% CI 0.804?0.993）with 94.2%（98/104）accuracy. The combined clinical and radiomic model，integrating 1 315 radiomic features and clinical features，demonstrated superior performance with an AUC of 0.946（95% CI 0.887?1.000）and 96.2%（100/104）accuracy，outperforming both the clinical model（ P = 0.03）and the Martini model（ P < 0.01）. SHAP analysis identified the top five predictors in the combined model：ZSscore（SHAP value：0.78），long-run low gray-level emphasis（SHAP value：0.61），run-length non-uniformity（SHAP value：0.58），size-zone non-uniformity（SHAP value：0.46），and gray-level co-occurrence matrix joint energy（SHAP value：0.36）. Conclusions:The deep learning-based multimodal model integrating clinical and radiomic features accurately predicts AKI risk after partial nephrectomy，offering a novel strategy for preoperative risk stratification and personalized intervention.

AIM:To evaluate the value of ultra-sound-guided erector spinae plane block(ESPB)combined with opioid-sparing anaesthesia in extra-corporeal shock wave lithotripsy(ESWL)for pancre-atic stones.METHODS:A total of 96 patients(60 males and 36 females,aged 20-65 years,ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ,BMI 16-30 kg/m2)undergoing elective extracorpo-real shock wave lithotripsy for pancreatic duct stones were selected in our hospital from March 2022 to April 2023.The patients were randomly di-vided into conventional intravenous anesthesia group(group C,48 cases)and ESPB+opioid-sparing group(group E,48 cases).Patients in group C un-derwent general anesthesia with target-controlled infusion of propofol and remifentanil with sponta-neous breathing.Patients in group E underwent ul-trasound-guided bilateral ESPB before intravenous general anesthesia.The changes of hemodynamic indexes(HR,MAP)in the two groups were ob-served and recorded.The anesthetic effect,dosage of remifentanil,quality of anesthesia recovery,postoperative analgesic effect and incidence of perioperative adverse reactions(respiratory depres-sion,nausea and vomiting,pruritus,etc.)were ob-served in the two groups.RESULTS:Compared with group C,the incidence of intraoperative respiratory depression was significantly decreased,the intraop-erative consumption of remifentanil was de-creased,and the postoperative recovery time was shortened in group E(P＜0.05).The VAS scores of rest and cough pain and the incidence of postoper-ative nausea and vomiting were significantly de-creased in group E(P＜0.05).There was no signifi-cant difference in HR and MAP between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:Ultrasound-guided ESPB in ESWL for pancreatic duct stones is satisfac-tory and can save opioids with few complications.

Neurogenic bladder(NB)is one of the most challenging urinary system disorders,with spinal cord injury(SCI)being an important etiological factor.Animal models provide crucial tools for investigating the pathogenesis,therapeutic strategies,and novel drug screening for NB subsequent to SCI.We reviewed and synthesized recent literature on NB animal models after SCI from both domestic and international sources.This review summarizes and analyzes research advancements using these models in terms of animal species,SCI segments,modeling techniques,and evaluation indicators,with the aim of offering insights and guidance for future experimental research based on animal models of NB following SCI.

Objective To explore and summarize the locations,clinical manifestations,and treatment strategies of foreign bodies in the oral and maxillofacial region(FBOMR)among patients treated in our hospital,providing clinical insights and references for the pre-vention and management of FBOMR.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 17 FBOMR patients hos-pitalized in our hospital from May 2022 to May 2024.The demographic information,etiology of injury,characteristics of foreign bodies,extraction methods,surgical duration,complications,and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Differences in treatment strategies among patients with varying injury patterns were compared.Results The average age of the 17 FBOMR patients was(45.71±18.19)years old,with a male to female ratio of 1∶0.7.Etiological analysis revealed:iatrogenic causes(58.82%,10/17),occupational exposure(23.53%,4/17),and accidental injuries(17.65%,3/17).Secondary infections occurred in 64.71%(11/17)of cases during foreign body retention.All cases underwent successful surgical removal,with the following approaches:conventional surgery(64.71%,11/17),computer navigation-assisted surgery(29.41%,5/17),and endoscope-assisted surgery(5.88%,1/17).Compared to the conventional group,computer navigation-assisted surgery significantly reduced intraoperative trauma(P＜0.05).Conclusion Retained FBOMR poses serious risks to patients'physical and mental health.Surgical intervention remains the gold standard for clinical manage-ment.Precise three-dimensional localization and minimally invasive techniques,such as computer-assisted navigation and endoscopy,are recommended to minimize tissue damage and improve outcomes.
