Objective:To investigate the cognitive function and its influencing factors among residents in Qingdao city.Methods:The 5 311 research subjects over 65 years old were selected from Qingdao by simple random sampling and stratified sampling. All subjects were investigated by AD8 dementia early screening questionnaire and community screening instrument dementia (CSI-D) to evaluate the prevalence of cognitive decline in this study.The score of AD8 dementia early screening questionnaire ≥2 points or the score of CSI-D ≤7 points was considered to be cognitive decline. Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test, Fisher exact probability method, univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis and Bootstrap verification were performed using SPSS 26.0 software. Results:Among 5 311 subjects, 1 899 subjects had normal cognitive function (35.76%) and 3 412 subjects had cognitive decline (64.24%). The age of the cognitive decline group was significantly higher than that of the normal group ( P<0.01). There were significant differences in gender, educational level, rural residents, marital status, chronic medical history, hypertension, rheumatoid arthritis, cerebrovascular disease, intervertebral disc disease, ischemic heart disease, monthly household income and alcohol consumption between the two groups (all P<0.05). Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that female ( β=0.313, OR=1.367, 95% CI=1.221-1.530), age ( β=0.052, OR=1.053, 95% CI=1.043-1.063), rural residents ( β=0.850, OR=2.340, 95% CI=2.042-2.682), widowed ( β=0.557, OR=1.745, 95% CI=1.500-2.029), chronic medical history ( β=0.290, OR=1.336, 95% CI=1.191-1.498), hypertension ( β=0.134, OR=1.143, 95% CI=1.020-1.281), rheumatoid arthritis ( β=0.458, OR=1.581, 95% CI=1.222-2.046), cerebrovascular disease ( β=0.584, OR=1.794, 95% CI=1.352-2.380), intervertebral disc disease ( β=0.578, OR=1.782, 95% CI=1.370-2.319), ischemic heart disease ( β=0.501, OR=1.651, 95% CI=1.272-2.143) were the risk factors for cognitive decline. Higher education level, higher monthly household income and abstinence ( β=-0.244, OR=0.783, 95% CI=0.619-0.992) were protective factors for cognitive decline. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( β=0.035, OR=1.036, 95% CI=1.025-1.047), rural residents ( β=0.215, OR=1.239, 95% CI=1.047-1.468), chronic medical history ( β=0.191, OR=1.210, 95% CI=1.067-1.372), cerebrovascular disease ( β=0.480, OR=1.616, 95% CI=1.195-2.187), intervertebral disc disease ( β=0.456, OR=1.578, 95% CI=1.190-2.094) were risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. Higher education level and higher monthly household income were protective factors for Alzheimer's disease. Conclusion:The elderly with chronic diseases, low income and low education level may be at the high risk of cognitive function decline, which should be paid attention to in early screening and intervention.

Objective:To investigate the current status of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in China, and to provide supporting data and reference for the development of endoscopic treatment.Methods:In this study, initiated by the Liver Health Consortium in China (CHESS), a questionnaire was designed and distributed online to investigate the basic condition of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in 2022 in China. Questions included annual number and indication of endoscopic procedures, adherence to guideline for preventing esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB), management and timing of emergent EGVB, management of gastric and isolated varices, and improvement of endoscopic treatment. Proportions of hospitals concerning therapeutic choices to all participant hospitals were calculated. Guideline adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals were compared by using Chi-square test.Results:A total of 836 hospitals from 31 provinces (anotomous regions and municipalities) participated in the survey. According to the survey, the control of acute EGVB (49.3%, 412/836) and the prevention of recurrent bleeding (38.3%, 320/836) were major indications of endoscopic treatment. For primary [non-selective β-blocker (NSBB) or endoscopic therapies] and secondary prophylaxis (NSBB and endoscopic therapies) of EGVB, adherence to domestic guideline was 72.5% (606/836) and 39.2% (328/836), respectively. There were significant differences in the adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals in primary prophylaxis of EGVB [71.0% (495/697) VS 79.9% (111/139), χ2=4.11, P=0.033] and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB [41.6% (290/697) VS 27.3% (38/139), χ2=9.31, P=0.002]. A total of 78.2% (654/836) hospitals preferred endoscopic therapies treating acute EGVB, and endoscopic therapy was more likely to be the first choice for treating acute EGVB in tertiary hospitals (82.6%, 576/697) than secondary hospitals [56.1% (78/139), χ2=46.33, P<0.001]. The optimal timing was usually within 12 hours (48.5%, 317/654) and 12-24 hours (36.9%, 241/654) after the bleeding. Regarding the management of gastroesophageal varices type 2 and isolated gastric varices type 1, most hospitals used cyanoacrylate injection in combination with sclerotherapy [48.2% (403/836) and 29.9% (250/836), respectively], but substantial proportions of hospitals preferred clip-assisted therapies [12.4% (104/836) and 26.4% (221/836), respectively]. Improving the skills of endoscopic doctors (84.2%, 704/836), and enhancing the precision of pre-procedure evaluation and quality of multidisciplinary team (78.9%, 660/836) were considered urgent needs in the development of endoscopic treatment. Conclusion:A variety of endoscopic treatments for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension are implemented nationwide. Participant hospitals are active to perform emergent endoscopy for acute EGVB, but are inadequate in following recommendations regarding primary and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB. Moreover, the selection of endoscopic procedures for gastric varices differs greatly among hospitals.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effectiveness of Piezocision combined with a microporous technique in accelerating periodontal tissue reconstruction during the anterior migration of mandibular molars in adults.Methods:A prospective, randomized, controlled study was conducted on 30 adult orthodontic patients recruited from Shaoxing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2020 and September 2022. The inclusion criteria were patients who were unable to retain their first molars due to severe caries or long-term absence and were not suitable for implantation. Using the random number table method, the patients were randomly assigned to two groups: a simple orthodontic control group (Group A, n = 15) and a group that received Piezocision combined with a microporous technique (Group B, n = 15). After treatment, a comparison was made between the two groups in terms of mesial movement distance of the mandibular second molar, plaque index, gingival index, periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, clinical attachment loss, mesial root resorption of the mandibular second molar, alveolar bone height (measured as the distance from the center of the lower incisor to the anterior margin of the chin, referred to as the LM-AC distance), mandibular bone height (measured by the distance from the distal or mesial surface of the root to the alveolar bone margin, denoted as the CEJ-AC distance), and orthodontic satisfaction. Results:The mesial movement distances of the mandibular second molar in Group A patients were (0.86 ± 0.13) mm, (2.75 ± 0.24) mm, (3.54 ± 0.24) mm, and (4.67 ± 0.13) mm at 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks, respectively. These values were significantly greater than those observed in Group B, which were (0.43 ± 0.06) mm, (1.27 ± 0.14) mm, (1.85 ± 0.53) mm, and (2.65 ± 0.06) mm ( t = 6.83, 14.13, 18.24, 23.78, all P < 0.001). Prior to treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in plaque index, gingival index, periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, or clinical attachment loss between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, Group A did not exhibit statistically significant differences in plaque index, gingival index, width of keratinized gingiva, and gingival recession compared with baseline values (all P > 0.05). However, in Group A, periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment loss significantly increased compared with pretreatment levels ( t = -2.57, -7.50, both P < 0.05). After treatment, Group B exhibited significantly increased values for periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, and clinical attachment loss compared with baseline levels ( t = -8.66, -5.57, -45.33, -9.72, all P < 0.001). Furthermore, these values were significantly higher in Group B compared with those in Group A ( t = -4.28, -3.18, 10.00, 10.69, all P < 0.001). A statistically significant difference was also observed between the two groups in terms of mesial root resorption of the mandibular second molar ( t = 4.14, P < 0.001). However, there was no statistically significant difference in LM-AC distance between the two groups after treatment ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:The combination of Piezocision and a microporous technique can effectively accelerate the anterior migration of mandibular molars in adults while maintaining the health of periodontal tissues. This approach holds great potential for clinical promotion.
