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:The present study was designed to strengthen the education of research integrity, and to improve the awareness of academic misconduct and academic literacy of medical post-graduate students.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted with master post-graduate students of a university affiliated hospital, and statistical analysis on the education of research integrity and the perception of academic misconduct among the survey respondents was performed.Results:Academic master post-graduate students′ cognitions of the misconduct in scientific research process and overall academic misconduct were better than that of professional master post-graduate students, and there were significant differences ( P<0.05). The more times of participation in research integrity training, the better cognition of misconduct of scientific research process, research results publication process, and overall academic misconduct, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The education on scientific research integrity of medical post-graduates should be carried out systematically, while the content should be improved and the form should be enriched for scientific research integrity education, so that the medical post-graduates can have a deeper understanding of the code of academic practices, and an education model of scientific research integrity for medical post-graduate which is suitable for China′s national conditions can be gradually developed.

Objective:To implement PRECEDE-PROCEED based intervention in community patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and explore its effects on patients' diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy.Methods:Totally 86 T2DM patients treated in a community health service center in Hangzhou between May and October 2014 were selected using convenient sampling and divided into intervention group ( n=43) and control group ( n=43) . Patients in the intervention group received 6-month intervention based on PRECEDE-PROCEED, while patients in the control group received a regular community health education course once during the same period. The diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy scores were evaluated between the two groups before and 3 and 6 months after intervention. At last, a total of 40 patients in the intervention group and 42 patients in the control group completed the study. Results:Repeated measures analysis of variance showed that there were time-dependent, between-group and combined effects in diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy scores in the two groups ( P<0.05) . Pairwise comparison between the two groups revealed that there was no statistically significant difference in diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy scores between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05) , but there were statistically significant differences in diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy scores between the two groups 3 and 6 months after intervention ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The PRECEDE-PROCEED based intervention can effectively improve the diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy of T2DM patients, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.

Objective To construct a knowledge system of cultural competence education among undergraduate nursing students, so as to enhance the cultural capacity of undergraduate nursing students. Methods From September 2015 to January 2016, a two-round expert consultation was conducted among 11 nursing experts who engaged in multicultural related work in Shanghai, Hangzhou and other places by Delphi method. Results The active coefficient of the two rounds of the expert consultation were both 100%. The expert authority (Cr) was 0.89, and the coordination coefficients of the first and second round of consultation were 0.227 and 0.236 respectively (P<0.01). Finally, the knowledge system of cultural competence education in undergraduate nursing students was constructed, including 5 first-level indicators, 10 second-level indicators and 39 third-level indicators. Conclusions The primarily constructed knowledge system of cultural competence education among undergraduate nursing students is a scientific and reasonable frame work system, which provides content references and evaluation basis for the cultural competence education among undergraduate nursing students in our country.
