Congenital orofacial cleft, the most common birth defect in the maxillofacial region, exhibits a wide range of prognosis depending on the severity of deformity and underlying etiology. Non-syndromic congenital orofacial clefts typically present with milder deformities and more favorable treatment outcomes, whereas syndromic congenital orofacial clefts often manifest with concomitant organ abnormalities, which pose greater challenges for treatment and result in poorer prognosis. This consensus provides an elaborate classification system for varying degrees of orofacial clefts along with corresponding diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines. Results serve as a crucial resource for families to navigate prenatal screening results or make informed decisions regarding treatment options while also contributing significantly to preventing serious birth defects within the development of population.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of 1% povidone-iodine mouthwash combined with scaling and root planing in patients with stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ class A/B periodontitis, and to provide a basis for the clinical application of povidone-iodine mouthwash. METHODS: Seventy-five subjects were included in this trial and randomly divided into three groups. After full-mouth ultrasonic supragingival cleansing, scaling and root planing, the placebo group was treated with sodium chloride injection (NaCl group), the control group was treated with compound chlorhexidine mouthwash (CHX group), and the experimental group was treated with 1% povidone-iodine mouthwash (PVP-I group), and rinsed their mouths for 1 week, respectively. Subjects were tested at 1, 4, and 12 weeks after dosing for clinical indicators, microbial composition of supragingival plaque, gingival crevicular fluid inflammatory marker levels, and patient-reported outcomes. RESULTS: Sixty-three subjects completed the follow-up. After treatment, the clinical indicators, microbial indicators, and inflammatory indicators were all significantly improved (P<0.05). Comparisons among the groups showed that one week after treatment, the bleeding index and plaque index of the CHX group and the PVP-I group were lower than those of the NaCl group, and the plaque index of the CHX group was lower than that of the PVP-I group (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the other clinical indicators among the groups (P>0.05). Twelve weeks after treatment, the Shannon index of the CHX group was lower than that of the NaCl group (P<0.05), and there were no statistically significant differences in the other microbial indicators among the groups (P>0.05). Twelve weeks after treatment, the interleukin-10 concentration of the CHX group was higher than that of the NaCl group (P<0.05), and there were no statistically significant differences in the other inflammatory indicators among the groups (P>0.05). The PVP-I group had the highest scores in terms of taste and oral odor. There was no obvious staining on the tooth surfaces and mucosa in all three groups. CONCLUSIONS 1% PVP-I mouthwash combined with scaling and root planing can effectively reduce gingival inflammation and dental plaque, improve clinical symptoms in the short term. While its efficacy is not significantly inferior to that of chlorhexidine, PVP-I mouthwash is more acceptable to patients than chlorhexidine.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of robotic surgery via the bilateral axillo-breast approach（BABA） in lateral lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma（PTC）. Methods:Clinicopathological records of 324 PTC patients receiving unilateral neck dissection in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from December 2020 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Of these patients, 108 underwent robotic surgery via BABA（robotic group）, while the remaining patients underwent conventional open surgery（open group）. The extent of lateral neck lymph node dissection included level Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ. The differences in surgical indexes, postoperative complication rates and cosmetic outcomes of incisions were compared between two groups. Results:All study subjects completed the operation successfully, and there was no conversion in the robotic group. The average age of patients in the robotic group was lower than that in the open group, and the proportion of female patients was higher in the robotic group compared to the open group（P<0.05）. Patients in the robotic group had a greater number of dissected lymph nodes in level ⅡB and higher cosmetic scores（P<0.05）. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the average dissection time of lateral cervical lymph nodes, the number of dissected lymph nodes and metastatic lymph nodes in level ⅡA, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ, average postoperative drainage volume, average postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complication rates（P>0.05）. Conclusion:The application of robotic surgical system via BABA in lateral neck lymph node dissection for PTC is safe and feasible, with superior advantages in level ⅡB dissection and better postoperative cosmetic outcomes.

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of tributyrin(TB)on energy me-tabolism,oxidative stress and immune function in dairy cows with negative energy balance(NEB).In this study,25 perinatal Holstein cows from a dairy farm in Heilongjiang Province were selected.Five healthy cows were designated as the control group,and 20 cows with NEB were randomly di-vided into NEB control group,Propylene glycol(PG)group(300 mL PG),TB group(37.5 g TB)and PG+TB group(300 mL PG+37.5 g TB)with 5 cows in each group,and were continuously fed for 14 days.Blood samples were collected at 0,7,14 and 21 days.The indexes of oxidative stress,energy metabolism and immune function in the serum of dairy cows were quantified using commercially available kits.The results showed that compared with the NEB group,the contents of T-AOC,GSH-Px,CAT and SOD in the TB group were significantly increased,whereas the content of MDA was significantly decreased.These results indicated that TB can effectively alleviate the oxidative stress of cows with NEB.The contents of BHB,NEFA and BUN in the TB group were significantly decreased,indicating that TB can regulate energy metabolism disorders in cows with NEB.The contents of IL1β,IL-2,IL-6,IL-21,MIP-1 and IP-10 in the TB group were significantly decreased,while the contents of IgA,IgM and IgG were significantly increased.These results sug-gest that TB has shown significant effects in inhibiting inflammatory response and improving im-mune function.Furthermore,compared with the PG group,the contents of T-AOC,GSH-Px,CAT,SOD,IgA,IgM and IgG in the TB group and the PG+TB group were significantly in-creased,whereas the contents of MDA,BHB,NEFA,BUN,IL-1β,IL-2,IL-6,IL-21,MIP-1 and IP-10 were significantly decreased.These results indicated that feeding TB alone was effective in alle-viating oxidative stress,improving energy metabolism and inhibiting inflammation in dairy cows compared to feeding the traditional drug PG,and the effect of feeding a mixture of PG and TB was particularly significant.This study provides a new theoretical basis for the prevention and treat-ment of oxidative stress and immune function decline caused by perinatal cows with NEB.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of ileal injury secondary to percutaneous nephrolithotomy percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL).Methods The diagnosis and treatment of a patient were reviewed,and relevant literature were retrieved.Results The patient was a 41-year-old male,who underwent stage PCNL(initial percutaneous nephrostomy,followed by secondary PCNL)due to right ureteral calculi with severe hydronephrosis.On postoperative day 1,he developed abdominal distension and pain.Abdominal X-ray revealed subdiaphragmatic free gas,and CT showed pelvic and abdominal fluid and gas accumulation,suggesting peritonitis due to intestinal perforation.Emergency exploratory laparotomy identified a 3 mm×3 mm ileal perforation approximately 30 cm from the ileocecal valve,which was repaired surgically.The patient recovered well and was discharged after one week,with no discomfort reported during a 6-month follow-up.Conclusion The clinical features of ileal injury secondary to PCNL include early postoperative abdominal distension,pain and peritonitis.Diagnosis relies on clinical manifestations,abdominal X-ray and CT,with surgical exploration if necessary.Conservative management under vigilant observation can be cautiously adopted for localized injuries,while surgical repair is required for peritonitis or failed conservative therapy.

Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) represents a significant evolution in minimally invasive surgery, designed to accomplish cholecystectomy via a single umbilical incision. This approach seeks to reduce abdominal wall trauma while optimizing cosmetic outcomes. SILC is a safe and feasible minimally invasive technique for cholecystectomy under defined conditions; however, its broader adoption will require further evidence-based research and the establishment of standardized protocols to support its widespread implementation. When performed by skilled surgeons in carefully selected patients, SILC demonstrates clinical outcomes comparable to those of conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy, with notable improvements in incision aesthetics. Nonetheless, the technique is limited by a constrained operative field and a protracted learning curve. In response, continuous advancements in instrumentation and procedural modifications have propelled the further development and clinical integration of SILC. Drawing on current literature and clinical experience, this review delineates the technical characteristics, current clinical applications, primary benefits, and prevailing challenges associated with SILC.

Objective:To explore the views of adolescents with asthma on factors affecting disease self-management, so as to provide a basis for improving self-management of asthma children, and propose improvement suggestions.Methods:This study was a descriptive qualitative study. From February to June 2023, 10 to 17 year old children with asthma were recruited at the Asthma Clinic of the Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics through purposive sampling. One-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted around self-management and its related factors, and the thematic analysis was used to analyse interview materials.Results:A total of 17 adolescents with asthma, aged (13.00±2.03) years, with a course of disease of (5.00±2.85) years, were included. The interview materials included two aspects, namely facilitators and barriers of self-management. The facilitators were coded into three themes and seven sub-themes, including the individual management awareness of children with asthma (sense of responsibility, compliance awareness), social support (parental care and compensation, teacher and classmate support, patient interaction), and health education (health guidance from doctors and nurses, school health propaganda). Barriers were encoded into three themes and six sub-themes, including disease cognition (demand competition, importance), social environment (interpersonal interaction, physical environment), and healthcare services (accessibility of medical services, school related medical resources) .Conclusions:The self-management of adolescents with asthma is affected by multiple factors. Individual management awareness, social support, and health education can promote self-management in children with asthma, while unfavorable factors in disease cognition, social environment, and healthcare services can hinder self-management in children with asthma. Medical and nursing staff should develop and implement empowerment plans for self-management of asthma children, by mobilizing multi-channel medical resources, providing multi-dimensional full process empowerment, and helping asthma children build a diverse interpersonal support network system, in order to promote effective health management transition for adolescents with asthma.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of programmed death 1(PD-1) inhibitory combined with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced resectable oral squamous cell carcinoma.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled phase Ⅱ trial. Patients recruited from Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from July 2021 to February 2023 were randomly divided into two groups in a 1∶1 ratio: the experimental group (Toripalimab combined with albumin paclitaxel and cisplatin) and the control group (albumin paclitaxel and cisplatin); patients in both groups underwent three cycles of neoadjuvant therapy. After completion of neoadjuvant therapy, patients were evaluated and subsequent surgical treatment was performed. According to the completion of treatment, the analysis was conducted on both the full analysis set and the protocol set. The effectiveness and safety of treatments were evaluated. SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 41 cases with oral cancer were enrolled, including 26 males and 15 females, aged between 34 and 74 years old. There were 23 cases in the experimental group and 18 cases in the control group. A total of 23 cases completed neoadjuvant therapy and surgery according to the protocol. Experimental group and control group showed respectively the complete response rates of 1/19 and 0/17, the partial response rates of 13/19 and 8/17, the stage-down rates of 4/19 and 3/17, the pathologic complete response rate of 8/14 and 2/9, with no statistically significant differences in individual rates between two groups ( P>0.05). The major pathological response rate of 13/14 in experimental group was higher than that of 2/9 in control group ( P<0.05). The incidence of grade 3-4 adverse reactions related to treatment was low in both groups (4/23 vs. 3/18, χ 2=0.13, P=0.72), and the most common serious adverse reactions in the experimental group were granulocyte deficiency and electrolyte disorder. There were no adverse reactions that affected subsequent surgical treatment or caused death, and the safety and tolerability were good. The median follow-up time was 15 months, and the one-year disease-free survival rate of the experimental group was higher than that of control group (92.86% vs. 77.78%, χ 2=0.62, P=0.42), with a relative decrease of 87% in the risk of disease progression or death ( P=0.029). For patients with programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1) protein expression combined positive score≥20, the experimental group showed higher major pathological response rate than control group (5/5 vs. 0/4, P=0.03). Conclusion:The neoadjuvant therapy of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy can improve the pathological remission of oral squamous cell carcinoma and the long-term survival benefits and the prognosis of patients.
