Objective:
To investigate treatment strategies for chronic periapical periodontitis in prematurely erupted premolars and provide guidance for managing pulp and periapical diseases in young permanent teeth with immature roots.
Methods:
A regenerative endodontic procedure (REP) was performed on a prematurely erupted maxillary left first premolar (tooth 24) at Nolla stage Ⅶ with chronic apical periodontitis, following standardized protocols including root canal irrigation, disinfection, and coronal sealing. The case was followed up, and a literature review was conducted.
Results:
Clinical resolution of symptoms was observed on tooth 24, with sustained root development. After a 20-month follow-up, the tooth had restored biological function. Literature synthesis revealed that periapical infections in prematurely erupted permanent teeth predominently arise from pulp exposure and bacterial infection, with retrograde infection being rare. For young permanent teeth with necrotic pulp, regenerative endodontic procedures has been established as the treatment of choice to promote apical closure and root maturation. The critical steps of regenerative endodontic procedures include thorough disinfection, induced bleeding to form a fibrin scaffold, and coronal sealing to facilitate stem cell recruitment and differentiation.
Conclusion
Regenerative endodontic procedures represents an effective and viable treatment option for prematurely erupted young permanent teeth with chronic periapical periodontitis.

OBJECTIVE
To establish a rapid method for determining of acid yellow 36 in moxibustion.
METHODS
Based on the principle of acid yellow 36 as an acid-base indicator and discoloration in the pH range of 1.2(red) to 2.3(yellow), 15% sulfuric acid solution was used as the color developing agent to screen the ethanol extract of the sample, and then HPLC method was used to verify the suspicious positive samples in the initial screening, and finally LC-MS method was used to confirm the accuracy of the established rapid physicochemical detection method.
RESULTS
The established method was applied to 67 batches of samples, and 3 positive samples were detected. The results were consistent with those of HPLC and LC-MS.
CONCLUSION
The method is accurate and sensitive, which can be used for rapid detection of acid yellow 36 in moxibustion.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of hospitalized children with pertussis.Methods The clinical data of 87 hospitalized children with pertussis admitted to Women and Children39;s Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the age of the children,they were divided into group A(≤3 months of age,35 cases),group B(4-12 months of age,36 cases)and group C(>12 months of age,16 cases).The clinical features of children at different ages were compared.Results The majority of children with pertussis were<1 year old(81.61%),and August was the month of high incidence.Spastic cough(72.41%)was the main clinical manifestation.Other manifestations included redness or cyanosis,vomiting after coughing,crow echo,etc.There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of spastic cough,redness or cyanosis and the contact history of patients with chronic cough among three groups(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the incidence of pneumonia and the average length of hospital stay among three groups(P<0.05).There was significant difference in C-reactive protein level among three groups(P<0.05).Among 87 children with pertussis,37 cases(42.53%)were infected with other pathogens,among which virus infection was the most common.The treatment is effective with macrolides and compound sulfamethoxazole.Conclusion Pertussis is more common in infants under 1 year of age,and the incidence is high in August.Chronic cough patients with close contact may be the source of infection.Spastic cough is the main clinical symptom of children;the younger,the more common symptoms such as spastic cough,redness and cyanosis,the higher incidence of pneumonia and the longer hospital stay.

Objective:
To explore the value of vector angle of Lorenz plots(LPs) and the role of combining B-line slope in improving the diagnostic efficiency of arrhythmia.
Methods:
LPs of 119 cases with ventricular premature contraction (VPC group ) ,97 cases with supraventricular premature contraction(SPC group) ,52 cases with type II°I atrioventricular block ( Ⅱ ° Ⅰ group) and 54 cases with type Ⅱ ° Ⅱ atrioventricular / sinoatrial block ( Ⅱ ° Ⅱ group) were retrospectively analyzed.The B-line slope and vector angle were measured,and the differences between groups were compared. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of B-line slope,vector angle and their combination between groups ,and MedCalc software was used for statistical comparison.The consistency of intra-observer and inter-observer measurements of B-line slope and vector angle was evaluated using Intra group correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman plot.
Results:
There were significant differences between VPC group and SPC group,and between Ⅱ ° Ⅰ group and II°II group (P<0. 05) .The area under the curve (AUC) of B-line slope,vector angle,and the combination of the two in distinguishing ventricular and supraventricular premature contraction were 0. 81,0. 84 and 0. 87 respectively,and the AUC in distinguishing type Ⅱ ° Ⅰ and type Ⅱ ° Ⅱ atrioventricular / sinoatrial block were 0. 76,0. 78 and 0. 80 respectively.The ICC of vector angle was better than B-line slope (Intra-observer 0. 99 vs 0. 98,Inter-observer 0. 97 vs 0. 96) .
Conclusion
Vector angle can be used to identify the type of arrhythmia,and has good intraobserver and interobserver consistency.Its combination with B-line slope has the highest accuracy in diagnosing arrhythmia,providing a new reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To investigate the modification effect of atmospheric temperature on outpatient visits caused by O3 in Linzhi City. Methods The daily outpatient data, the daily O3 concentration and daily meteorological data (including daily average temperature, average relative humidity, etc.) in Linzhi City from 2018 to 2019 were collected. The distributed lag non-liner-model (DLNM) was used to quantitatively evaluate the impact of O3 in different temperature layers on the risk of outpatient visits. Results At low temperature layers, the cumulative relative risk (CRR) of total outpatient visits and non-injury outpatient visits increased by 53.8%(4.2% -126.9%) and 59.1%(5.8% -139.2%)for every 10 μg/m3 increase of O3 concentration, respectively. The subgroup analysis showed that for every 10 μg/m3 increase of O3 concentration at low temperature, the CRR of patients with circulatory diseases, men, women, and people being <14 years old and 14-65 years old increased by 152.1% (15.1% - 451.9%), 58.3% (2.1%-145.5%), 49.2% (3.0% -116.1%), 39.6% (2.5% - 90.3%), and 61% (0.8%-157.1%), respectively. Conclusion The average temperature may have a modifying effect on the outpatient visits caused by O3 in Linzhi City. In general, the cumulative risk increases as the temperature decreases.

Objective To investigate the application validity of the adjusted norm of WAIS-RC in the identification of intellectual disability.Methods128 patients with mental retardation (MR) were chosen for identification of the intellectual disability, measured their full scale IQs (FIQ) according to the original norm, calculated their four-subtest short forms FIQ respectively by Tellegen way according to the original standard norm and the new adjusted norm, then compared and analyzed the outcomes.ResultsThe short forms FIQ according to the original and the new norm had high correlation to full forms FIQ (P<0.01). The average of the short forms FIQ was higher than full forms FIQ according to the original norm (P<0.01), showing no significant difference according to the new norm(P>0.05). In severe intelligence defected group according to full forms IQ, the grade classification corresponding rate of short forms FIQ according to the new norm was 0.00%, as well as the original norm. That in medium and mild intelligence defected groups was higher than that of original norm(P<0.01).ConclusionThe test validity of adjusted norm short forms of WAIS-RC is superior to the original norm, but not suitable for severe intelligence defected.
