Objective:To evaluate the impact of implementing a regional hierarchical medical management model based on the medical internet of things (medical IoT) on the frequency of emergency department visits and hospitalizations, as well as related medical expenses, in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This retrospective study included COPD patients enrolled in the regional hierarchical medical management system based on Medical IoT across 21 community health service centers in Songjiang District, Shanghai, between July 2017 and May 2018. Utilizing patient data from the year prior to enrollment as the baseline, changes in the number of emergency visits, hospitalizations, and associated medical costs during the first and second years of management were compared. Changes for patients receiving drug treatment were also analyzed.Results:A total of 973 COPD patients were enrolled. The mean age was 75.2±17.0 years, and 64.34% (626/973) were male. Compared to baseline, all COPD patients in the first year of management showed significant reductions: emergency visits decreased by 33.67%, total emergency costs by 45.60%, hospitalizations by 27.15%, and total hospitalization costs by 25.42%. In the second year, reductions were: emergency visits by 28.08%, total emergency costs by 36.10%, hospitalizations by 35.26%, and total hospitalization costs by 18.13% (all P<0.05). Among patients receiving drug therapy, reductions in the first year were: emergency visits by 39.66%, total emergency costs by 47.54%, hospitalizations by 25.19%, and total hospitalization costs by 28.40%. In the second year, reductions were: emergency visits by 46.98%, total emergency costs by 45.99%, hospitalizations by 41.98%, and total hospitalization costs by 24.94% (all P<0.05). No significant differences were observed before and after management for patients without drug treatment. Conclusion:The implementation of the regional hierarchical medical management model based on Medical IoT significantly reduced the frequency of emergency visits and hospitalizations, as well as related costs, for COPD patients.

Objective To explore the risk factors of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in obese children,and evaluate the diagnostic value of each index for NAFLD and establish a Nomogram prediction model.Methods A total of 207 obese children admitted at Department of Pediatrics the Second Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2022 to January 2025 were selected.These children were divided into two groups based on NAFLD diagnosis:non-NAFLD group(n=99)and NAFLD group(n=108).Differences in gender,age,body mass index(BMI),and related metabolic indicators were compared between two groups.Logistic regression was employed to analyze potential risk factors for NAFLD development,while receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and Nomograms were used to evaluate the predictive value of different factors for NAFLD.Results ROC curve analysis demonstrated diagnostic value for NAFLD in triglyceride-glucose index(TyG),triglyceride-to-cholesterol ratio,TyG-waist circumference,and TyG-BMI.Among these,the area under the curve(AUC)of TyG showed the highest value of 0.713,with an optimal cutoff of 8.189,sensitivity of 50.5％and specificity of 83.3％.Univariate Logistic regression analysis revealed multiple insulin resistance indicators associated with NAFLD development.Multivariate analysis identified homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)and TyG as independent risk factors,with TyG showing the best predictive value(OR=3.038 95％CI:1.089-8.475,P＜0.05).The constructed Nomogram prediction model demonstrated strong comprehensive discriminant capability(AUC=0.742).Conclusion The Nomogram model based on HOMA-IR,TyG and its derived indexes has certain clinical application value in the screening of NAFLD in children.

Dental implantology has developed rapidly for over half a century,since pure titanium(99.7％)dental cylindrical threaded implants were exploited and osseointegration was introduced in 1960s by Prof.Br?nemark.The long term retention rates of 10 years or more are over 95％.However,the biological complications jeopardize the long term effects of dental implant treatment seriously.The prevalence of dental implant biological complications varies greatly among different reports resulting from the disparities on the defini-tions of dental implant biological complications.After analyzing and summarizing the major opinions proposed internationally in recent years,the consensus for the definition of dental implant biological complications has been reached.Generally the dental implant biologi-cal implications can be classified into early stage(before restoration)biological complications and late stage(after restoration)biological complications.The early stage biological complications include acute and chronic infections,pain,soft tissue deficiency,and osseointegration failure,etc.The late stage complications include peri-implant diseases(peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis),soft tissue deficiency around implant,implant loosening and dropping off,etc.The various risk factors related to different dental implant biological complications,the strategies of the prevention and treatment for the dental implant biological complications have been discussed comprehensively,and the consensus has been reached.It is aimed to advocate the dentist to pay more attention to the early prevention of the biological implant complications,to promote more researches on the implant biological complications,and to help elevate the level of dental implantology in our country.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect of different administration times of compound lidocaine cream for lumbar paracentesis in the infants＜3 months oldMethods A total of 120 infants with lumbar puncture in the pediatric department of this hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the control group and observation 1,2,3 groups according to the random number table method,30 cases in each group.The control group had no medication intervention in the punc-ture local part before lumbar paracentesis,while the observation 1,2,3 groups were smeared the compound li-docaine cream 0.5 g,5 cm2 with the puncture point as the center at 10,30,60 min before lumbar puncture.The change situation of the Neonatal Infant Pain Scale(NIPS)score,heart rate(HR)and transcutaneous blood oxygen saturation(SpO2)at 1 min before puncture,1 min of puncture beginning and 3 min after puncture and the puncture success rate were compared among 4 groups.Results Compared with at 1 min before puncture,the NIPS score at 1 min of puncture beginning and at 3 min after puncture in 4 group was higher,the NIPS score at 1 min of puncture beginning and at 3 min after puncture in the observation 1,2,3 groups was lower than that in the control group,moreover the observation 2,3 groups were lower the observation 1 group(P＜0.05).Compared with at 1 min before puncture,except the heart rate at 3 min after puncture in the observa-tion 3 group was slower,the heart rate at other time points in the 4 groups was faster(P＜0.05);HR at 1 min of puncture beginning and at 3 min after puncture in the observation 1,2,3 groups was slower than that in the control group,moreover the observation 2,3 groups was lower than the observation 1 group(P＜0.05),SpO2 had no statistical difference among 4 groups(P＞0.05).The puncture success rate in the observation 1,2,3 groups was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Smearing compound lidocaine cream before lumbar puncture in the infants＜3 months old has a good analgesic effect and could increase the success rate of puncture.

The management of antibiotic-resistant, bacterial biofilm infections in skin wounds poses an increasingly challenging clinical scenario. Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is difficult to eradicate because of biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance. In this study, we identified a new benzothiazole derivative compound, SN12 (IC₅₀ = 43.3 nmol/L), demonstrating remarkable biofilm inhibition at nanomolar concentrations in vitro. In further activity assays and mechanistic studies, we formulated an unconventional strategy for combating P. aeruginosa-derived infections by targeting the two-component (Gac/Rsm) system. Furthermore, SN12 slowed the development of ciprofloxacin and tobramycin resistance. By using murine skin wound infection models, we observed that SN12 significantly augmented the antibacterial effects of three widely used antibiotics-tobramycin (100-fold), vancomycin (200-fold), and ciprofloxacin (1000-fold)-compared with single-dose antibiotic treatments for P. aeruginosa infection in vivo. The findings of this study suggest the potential of SN12 as a promising antibacterial synergist, highlighting the effectiveness of targeting the two-component system in treating challenging bacterial biofilm infections in humans.

The comparison between traditional Chinese medicine Jinzhen oral liquid (JZOL) and Western medicine in treating children with acute bronchitis (AB) showed encouraging outcomes. This trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of the JZOL for improving cough and expectoration in children with AB. 480 children were randomly assigned to take JZOL or ambroxol hydrochloride and clenbuterol hydrochloride oral solution for 7 days. The primary outcome was time-to-cough resolution. The median time-to-cough resolution in both groups was 5.0 days and the antitussive onset median time was only 1 day. This randomized controlled trial showed that JZOL was not inferior to cough suppressant and phlegm resolving western medicine in treating cough and sputum and could comprehensively treat respiratory and systemic discomfort symptoms. Combined with clinical trials, the mechanism of JZOL against AB was uncovered by network target analysis, it was found that the pathways in TRP channels like IL-1β/IL1R/TRPV1/TRPA1, NGF/TrkA/TRPV1/TRPA1, and PGE2/EP/PKA/TRPV1/TRPA1 might play important roles. Animal experiments further confirmed that inflammation and the immune regulatory effect of JZOL in the treatment of AB were of vital importance and TRP channels were the key mechanism of action.
