Microbial infections are a prevalent challenge in the prevention and treatment of oral diseases. Antibiotic therapy faces clinical limitations due to its single-target mechanism and tendency to induce resistance with repeated use, necessitating novel antibacterial strategies. Stimuli-responsive antibacterial materials, whose antimicrobial activity can be modulated by external stimuli, offer advantages such as remote controllability, potential for localized precision treatment, and a reduced risk of inducing resistance. Among these materials, mechanical force-triggered piezoelectric materials exhibit significant antibacterial activity in the biomedical field owing to their unique piezoelectric effect, excellent stability, and good biocompatibility. Research has shown that piezoelectric materials can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy in response to external forces, which enables antibacterial effects without requiring an external power source. The underlying mechanisms primarily include direct electric field effects, generation of reactive oxygen species, and immune modulation. Preliminary applications in treating oral infections (e.g., dental caries, periodontitis, and peri-implantitis) have confirmed their stability and biocompatibility, establishing a foundation for clinical translation. However, long-term efficacy and biosafety in the complex oral microenvironment require further validation. Future research should focus on optimizing material preparation protocols to enhance antibacterial efficacy and stability, further investigating the underlying antimicrobial mechanisms, and systematically evaluating their therapeutic outcomes and safety profiles across various types of oral infections. This review summarizes the antibacterial effects, mechanisms, stability, safety, and research progress of piezoelectric materials in the stomatologic field, aiming to provide new insights for further research and application in this area.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application effect of Zishen Yutai Pill in patients with repeated implantation failure (RIF) undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted, selecting 744 cycles of patients with RIF at the Department of Female Reproductive Medicine,State Key Laboratory of Reproductive Medicine and Offspring Health, Center for Reproductive Medicine, Institute of Women, Children and Reproductive Health, Shandong University from October 2017 to April 2023. The patients were divided into experimental group (treated with Zishen Yutai Pill, n=279) and control group (treated without Zishen Yutai Pill, n=465) based on whether Zishen Yutai Pill was added to luteal support. The pregnancy outcomes between the two groups were compared. Based on the different endometrial preparation protocols in the FET cycles, the patients were used down-regulation protocol ( n=271) or non-down-regulation protocol ( n=473). The pregnancy outcomes of the two groups in each protocol were compared. Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of biochemical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate, embryo implantation rate, early miscarriage rate, late miscarriage rate, and live birth rate (all P>0.05). However, the biochemical pregnancy rate [69.0% (58/84)], clinical pregnancy rate [59.5% (50/84)], and embryo implantation rate [59.4% (57/96)] in the experimental group of the down-regulated protocol were significantly higher than those in control group [56.1% (105/187), P=0.045; 46.5% (87/187), P=0.048; 44.9% (92/205), P=0.019], with statistically significant differences. In the non-down-regulated protocol, there were no statistically significant differences in pregnancy outcomes between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:In the FET down-regulated protocol, Zishen Yutai Pill can significantly improve the clinical pregnancy rate and the embryo implantation rate in patients with RIF, thereby improving pregnancy outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the impact of perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation on adherence to cardiac rehabilitation and the mediating effect of cardiac impact denial in elderly patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. From August 2023 to July 2024, 336 elderly patients with PCI who were discharged from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and needed phaseⅡ cardiac rehabilitation were selected for the study. General Information Questionnaire, Adherence of Cardiac Rehabilitation Assessment Scale in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease (ACRAS-CHD) , Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS) , and Cardiac Denial of Impact Scale (CDIS) were used to survey the patients. Bootstrap method was used to sample 5 000 for mediating effect tests.Results:A total of 336 questionnaires were distributed and 324 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 96.43% (324/336) . Among 324 elderly patients after PCI, ACRAS-CHD score, CRBS score, and CDIS score were (73.19±5.46) , (79.35±6.60) , and (30.57±3.66) , respectively. The direct effect of perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation on adherence to cardiac rehabilitation in elderly patients after PCI was -0.368, which accounted for 74.49% (-0.368/-0.494) of the total effect. The mediating effect of cardiac impact denial between perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation and adherence to cardiac rehabilitation in elderly patients after PCI was -0.126, which accounted for 25.51% of the total effect (-0.126/-0.494) .Conclusions:Elderly patients after PCI have poor adherence to cardiac rehabilitation. Perceived cardiac rehabilitation barriers reduce cardiac rehabilitation adherence in elderly patients after PCI, and cardiac impact denial exerts a partial mediating effect between perceived cardiac rehabilitation barriers and cardiac rehabilitation adherence.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of pediatric sepsis-induced coagulopathy(pSIC),and to construct a nomogram prediction model for early prediction of pSIC.Methods:Using a cross-sectional retrospective cohort design,children with sepsis who were hospitalized in PICU of the Second People's Hospital of Liaocheng Subsidiary to Shandong First Medical University from January 2017 to December 2023 were selected as the study objects,and the diagnosis of sepsis met the diagnostic criteria for childhood sepsis of the 2015 edition.According to the diagnostic criteria of pSIC,the children with sepsis were divided into common sepsis group and pSIC group.The clinical data of both groups were compared,such as general condition,inflammatory indicators,coagulation indicators,sequential organ failure assessment(pSOFA),pSIC score,PICU duration,etc.The risk factors of pSIC were initially screened by Lasso regression analysis,and the independent risk factors were screened by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.R software was used to construct the risk prediction nomogram and evaluate the model.Results:A total of 150 children with sepsis were included in the study,including 121 in the common sepsis group and 29 in the pSIC group.Lasso regression and multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pSOFA,prothrombin time(PT),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),mean platelet volume/platelet(MPV/PLT)and pediatric critical illness score(PCIS) were independent risk factors for pSIC(all P<0.05).Since the sources of the pSIC score overlaped with those of pSOFA and PT, only four indicators including ALT,BUN,MPV/PLT and PCIS were used to construct a nomogram model for predicting pSIC.The consistency index of the nomogram model was 0.98,and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.975(95% CI 0.952-0.999).The calibration curve was shown as a straight line with slope close to 1,indicating that the nomogram model had good accuracy in predicting pSIC.The clinical decision curve indicated that the nomogram model had good clinical applicability. Conclusion:pSOFA,PT,ALT,BUN,MPV/PLT and PCIS were all independent risk factors for pSIC.The risk prediction nomogram model of pSIC based on ALT,BUN,MPV/PLT and PCIS can predict the occurrence of pSIC,and provide reference for early clinical recognition and intervention.
