Objective:
To enhance the recognition of necrotizing sialometaplasia (NS) by elucidating its clinical, pathological characteristics and key diagnostic points, providing a basis for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
Methods:
This study has been reviewed and approved by the Medical Ethics Committee, and informed consent has been obtained from patients. Review the data of a patient with NS occurring at the junction of the right soft and hard palate, and comprehensively analyze its diagnostic process based on its clinical manifestations, imaging, and histopathological examination results. And review the relevant literature on the disease.
Results:
This study describes a 24-year-old male patient with a documented betel nut habit (2 pieces/day for >6 months), who presented with a bone-deep, irregular crateriform ulcer (3 mm × 6 mm × 5 mm) localized to the right hard-soft palate junction. Spiral CT showed a local soft tissue defect with no apparent underlying bone destruction. Histopathology demonstrated chronic inflammation of the mucosal and minor salivary gland tissues, with no evidence of malignancy. A final diagnosis of NS was established. The ulcer healed completely three weeks after initiation of local anti-inflammatory therapy. A literature review indicates that NS is a rare, benign salivary gland disorder, typically occurring at the hard-soft palate junction in middle-aged men (40-60 years). Its etiology remains unclear, but it is widely attributed to salivary lobe infarction following mechanical trauma-induced ischemia. Due to its clinical resemblance to malignancy, it is often misdiagnosed. Treatment entails local anti-inflammatory measures and meticulous wound care aimed at promoting mucosal healing.
Conclusion
NS is a self-limiting, benign condition that poses a significant diagnostic challenge due to its close clinical simulation of malignancy. Thus, accurate diagnosis requires a combined assessment of clinical presentation, radiological features, and pathological findings. Treatment is predicated based on a conservative strategy with an emphasis on symptomatic management.

OBJECTIVE To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Xintong granules and the quantitative analysis of multi- components by single-marker method (QAMS) to determine the contents of 7 components, so as to provide a scientific basis for their quality control. METHODS HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules (No. S1- S10), and similarity evaluation, cluster analysis (CA) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were performed. At the same time, the contents of seven components, including puerarin, daidzin, calycosin-7-O- β -D-glucoside, stilbene glycoside, naringin, icariin and tanshinone ⅡA, were determined by QAMS method, and were compared with the results of external standard method. RESULTS A total of 18 common peaks were marked and 7 peaks were identified in the HPLC fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules, namely puerarin (peak 4), daidzin (peak 7), calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside (peak 9), stilbene glycoside (peak 10), naringin (peak 12), icariin (peak 17), and tanshinone ⅡA (peak 18); the similarities among them were more than 0.990, and CA and PLS-DA results showed that S4-S5,S8-S10,S1-S3 and S6-S7 were clustered into three categories, respectively. Using naringin as the internal standard, the contents of puerarin, daidzin, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, stilbene glycoside, icariin and tanshinone ⅡA were determined to be 7.868 1-10.181 2, 1.709 2-2.374 1, 0.285 2-0.326 3, 1.024 1- 1.523 9, 0.140 2-0.290 4, and 0.077 1-0.219 4 mg/g, respectively, by the QAMS. These results showed no significant differences compared to those obtained by the external standard method. CONCLUSIONS Established HPLC fingerprint and QAMS method are convenient, stable and accurate, which can provide a basis for the quality evaluation of Xintong granules.

Objective To understand the equity and influencing factors of maternal health service utilization in Changning District, Shanghai. Methods A convenience sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among mothers of children aged 1 to 1.5 years old who received health services from the child health care clinics and EPI clinics of 10 community health service centers in Changning District, Shanghai from March to April 2022. Count data was expressed by frequency and percentage. Chi-square analysis, binomial logistic regression analysis, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze fairness-related factors. Rate difference, rate ratio and concentration index were used to represent fairness. Results A total of 696 subjects were investigated, with an average age of (33.35±4.76) years. There were statistically significant differences in service utilization among women with different household registrations only in early pregnancy registration (χ2=11.026, P=0.001) and postpartum visits (χ2=4.989, P=0.026). Women with a career showed differently in folic acid supplement (χ2=6.247, P=0.012), early pregnancy registration (χ2=12.989, P=0.002), physical examination in 42 days postpartum (χ2=4.446, P=0.035) and postpartum contraception (χ2=4.061, P=0.044), and the differences were statistically significant. Women with different monthly family income had a statistically significant difference in pre-pregnancy examination (χ2=8.977, P=0.030) and postpartum visit (χ2=16.114, P=0.001). There was a statistically significant difference between women with maternity insurance or not in the early pregnancy registration (χ2=10.576, P=0.001) and physical examination in 42 days postpartum (χ2=8.166, P=0.004). The results of the multivariate analysis showed that occupation (OR=2.616, 95% CI: 1.142-5.990) and maternity insurance (OR=4.490, 95% CI: 1.992~10.120) affected the utilization of service in early pregnancy registration. The monthly household income (OR=0.278, 95% CI: 0.124-0.625) affected the utilization of services in postpartum visit. At the same time, the monthly household income (10,000-19,999: OR=0.286, 95% CI: 0.090-0.907; ≥30,000: OR=0.180, 95% CI: 0.041-0.801) also affected the utilization of service in physical examination in 42 days postpartum. Conclusion The equity of maternal health care service utilization overall is good in central area in Shanghai, but there is still room for improvement. It is necessary to strengthen community mobilization, propagandize maternal health services, and expand the coverage of maternity insurance to improve the equity of maternal health service utilization and provide equal access to maternity health services.

This paper summarized Professor ZHOU Zhongying's experience in differentiating and treating hepatitis and liver cirrhosis from deficiency and excess. It is considered that the pathogenesis of hepatitis and liver cirrhosis belongs to deficiency in root and excess in branch, with depletion of liver, spleen and kidney as the root, and constraint and bind of damp-heat and stasis toxin as the branch. Moreover, mutual cause and promotion between deficiency and excess leads to the disease. For general principle of treatment, it is recommended to clear and transform pathogenic excess, supplement deficiency and rectify the healthy qi. In the early stage of hepatitis and cirrhosis, excess pathogen hyperactivity is the main manifestation, which can be treated by clearing and transforming damp-heat and stasis toxin, supplemented by regulating spleen and stomach, with modified Yinchenhao Decoction (茵陈蒿汤) and Biejiajian Pill (鳖甲煎丸). In the middle and late stages, cases with deficiency-excess complex were more common, which should be treated by clearing damp-heat and stasis toxin, regulating and supplementing liver-spleen-kidney, using medicinals with the function of clearing heat and dispelling damp, dissolving stasis and resolving toxins to treat the branch. Moreover, Liujunzi Decoction (六君子汤), Yiguan Decoction (一贯煎)plus Erzhi Pill (二至丸) and Buzhong Yiqi Decoction (补中益气汤) modifications are suggested respectively in correspondence to the different kinds of root deficiency including irregular liver and spleen, liver and kidney yin deficiency, and liver-spleen-kidney deficiency.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

ObjectiveTo solve the problems of delayed growth and development and insufficient spawning of experimental Zebrafish, so as to improve the reproductive efficiency and service life of experimental Zebrafish. MethodsThe zebrafish at the age of 2 months after fertilization were divided into two groups. The experimental group was fed with dry commercial diets specifically designed for ornamental fish or frozen adult brine shrimp, while control group was fed with live laval brine shrimp. Within a period of 70 days, the growth performance of the zebrafish was evaluated by measuring body length and weight, and the reproductive performance was assessed by measuring the fecundity and spawning rate. Zebrafish with apparent goiter disease were fed with dry commercial diets, and the inhibitory effect of the pellets on this disease was evaluated by measuring the diameter of the thyroid enlargement lesion. The three feeding methods were combined, and the feeding plan was optimized. The actual effects of the plan on zebrafish rearing were validated through reproductive performance tests. ResultsStarting from 60 days post-fertilization (dpf) until 111 dpf, the body length and weight of the dry commercial diets feed group gradually surpassed those of control group (all P<0.000 1). From 60 dpf to 96 dpf, the growth trend in body length of the adult brine shrimp group was similar to that of control group, but the female fish in the adult brine shrimp group had significantly higher body weight than the female fish in control group at 75-82 dpf (P<0.000 1). Compared to control group, there was a significant difference in body color between males and females in the adult brine shrimp group, and at 75 dpf, gender could be accurately distinguished by body color differences. Furthermore, the spawning rate of the zebrafish in the adult brine shrimp group at 3 months of age was significantly higher than that of control group (94.44% vs. 27.78%, P<0.05). Additionally, after feeding with the dry commercial diets for 130 days, all thyroid enlargement lesions in the experimental zebrafish disappeared. Based on the above results, the three feeding methods were combined and the feeding plan for zebrafish older than 2 months of age was optimized as follows: feed live brine shrimp in the morning, and alternate between dry commercial diets and adult brine shrimp in the afternoon. This feeding plan lasts until the age of 12 months. The spawning rate of Zebrafish can maintan 70%, and the spawning amount can reach (233.6±3.95) eggs. The fertilization rate and hatching rate were 97.47% and 90.24%, respectively, both significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.001, or P=0.01). ConclusionCompared to live brine shrimp feed, the dry commercial diets feed significantly improves the growth performance of zebrafish and has a therapeutic effect on thyroid enlargement disease. On the other hand, adult brine shrimp feed significantly enhances the early reproductive performance of zebrafish. The optimized feeding plan successfully improves the spawning efficiency of laboratory zebrafish, prolonging their reproductive lifespan and better supporting relevant scientific research.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the effect of acupuncture combined with infantile tuina on intestinal flora and its efficacy in children with tic disorders (TD), and to explore its mechanism.
METHODS:
A total of 15 children with TD were recruited as an observation group and 10 healthy children as a healthy control group. Regulating spleen and stomach acupuncture combined with infantile tuina were received in the observation group. First, acupuncture was applied to Zhongwan (CV 12), Tianshu (ST 25), Guanyuan (CV 4), Hegu (LI 4), Zusanli (ST 36), etc., and then abdominal massage and other tuina techniques were applied, once a day, 6 times a week, 2 weeks as a course of treatment, a total of 2 courses of treatment were required. No intervention was given in the healthy control group. In the observation group, Yale global tic severity scale (YGTSS) score and TCM syndrome score were compared before treatment and after 1 and 2 courses of treatment. 16S rRNA sequencing technology was used to detect the intestinal flora in the healthy control group and before and after treatment in the observation group.
RESULTS:
After 1 and 2 courses of treatment, the scores of YGTSS and TCM syndrome in the observation group were lower than those before treatment (P<0.01, P<0.05). Compared with the healthy control group, the number of operational taxonomic units (OTU) and indexes of Chao1, Sobs, Ace and Shannon were decreased in the observation group before treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with before treatment, the number of OTU and indexes of Chao1, Sobs, Ace and Shannon were increased in the observation group after treatment (P<0.01, P<0.05). Compared with the healthy control group, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the observation group before treatment was decreased (P<0.001), while the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, Bacteroides and Erysipelatoclostridium was increased (P<0.001, P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes in the observation group was decreased (P<0.001) after treatment, while the relative abundance of Actinobacteria, Bifidobacterium and Atopobium was increased (P<0.05, P<0.01).
CONCLUSION
Acupuncture combined with infantile tuina based on the principle of regulating spleen and stomach could effectively improve TD symptoms in children, which may be related to regulating the diversity of intestinal flora, increasing beneficial bacteria, maintaining intestinal microecological balance, and playing a role in improving neurological disorders.

Journal of Prevention and Treatment for Stomatological Diseases 2023;31(3):197-201
Objective:
To investigate the clinical manifestations, pathological features, and treatment of oral and maxillofacial pyogenic granulomas induced by camrelizumab.
Methods:
A case of pyogenic granuloma of the gums and lips caused by camrelizumab was reported along with a literature review.
Results:
After 4 months of treatment with camrelizumab for liver cancer, the patient developed systemic reactive capillary hyperplasia (RCH), followed by multiple masses on the lower lip and gingiva. After periodontal therapy, the masses on the lower lip and the gingiva were removed, and camrelizumab administration was stopped. The pathological result was gingival pyogenic granuloma/granulomatous hemangioma. No new masses were found in the oral cavity during postoperative follow-up. A review of the literature showed that RCH is the most common adverse drug reaction to camrelizumab but it occurs infrequently in the oral cavity. At present, the etiology of RCH has not been clarified, but the research has shown that camrelizumab may trigger tissue proliferation into hemangiomas by activating vascular endothelial cells, and the combined use of camrelizumab is safer than single use. RCH is self-limiting and most cases resolve spontaneously after discontinuation of the drug. If the mass causes dysfunction, surgical excision is feasible.
Conclusion
Camrelizumab can cause oral and maxillofacial reactive capillary hyperplasia complicated by pyogenic granuloma.
