Oral diseases concern almost every individual and are a serious health risk to the popula-tion.The restorative treatment of tooth and jaw defects is an important means to achieve oral function and support the appearance of the contour.Based on the principle of"learning from the nature",Deng Xu-liang's group of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology has proposed a new concept of"microstructural biomimetic design and tissue adaptation of tooth/jaw materials"to address the worldwide problems of difficulty in treating dentine hypersensitivity,poor prognosis of restoration of tooth defects,and vertical bone augmentation of alveolar bone after tooth loss.The group has broken through the bottle-neck of multi-stage biomimetic technology from the design of microscopic features to the enhancement of macroscopic effects,and invented key technologies such as crystalline/amorphous multi-level assembly,ion-transportation blocking,and multi-physical properties of the micro-environment reconstruction,etc.The group also pioneered the cationic-hydrogel desensitizer,digital stump and core integrated restora-tions,and developed new crown and bridge restorative materials,gradient functionalisation guided tissue regeneration membrane,and electrically responsive alveolar bone augmentation restorative membranes,etc.These products have established new clinical strategies for tooth/jaw defect repair and achieved inno-vative results.In conclusion,the research results of our group have strongly supported the theoretical im-provement of stomatology,developed the technical system of oral hard tissue restoration,innovated the clinical treatment strategy,and led the progress of the stomatology industry.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) in cardiac implantable electronic lead-related tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Methods The patients with severe TR who underwent LuX-Valve TTVR in 9 Chinese medical centers from June 2020 to August 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. They were divided into a cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) group and a non-CIED group based on whether they had pre-existing CIED implantation. Success of the procedure was defined as safe implantation of the LuX-Valve and complete withdrawal of the delivery system. Prognostic improvement was defined as a decrease of TR grade to≤2+ and an improvement of cardiac function by≥2 grades. Surgical success and postoperative prognosis were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 190 patients were collected, including 50 males and 140 females with a mean age of 66.2±7.8 years. There were 29 patients in the CIED group, and 161 patients in the non-CIED group. In the CIED group, 28 patients were implanted with a permanent pacemaker and 1 patient with a cardioverter-defibrillator. Preoperative New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function class, TR degree, left ventricular ejection fraction, tricuspid annular plane systolic excusion, and cardiac risk scores were comparable between the two groups (P>0.05). Postoperative TR was reduced to≤2+ in all patients, and there was no statistical difference in the incidence of perivalvular leakage between the two groups (P=0.270). Postoperative CT of CIED patients showed the valve was in place, and the lead was not extruded, twisted, or deflected. The in-hospital mortality of the two groups were 10.3% and 1.9%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.047). In addition, there was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of postoperative improvement of cardiac function and mortality in the 1- and 2-year follow-up. Conclusion TTVR is feasible, safe, and effective in patients with CIED implantation, and the pre-existing lead has no significant effect on the clinical efficacy.

Scars are classified into 5 types:Superficial scars,hypertrophic scars,atrophic scars,depressed scars,and keloid.These types are primarily characterized by abnormal production of fibroblasts and collagen,as well as the disorderly arrangement of connective tissue.Laser treatment for scars involves the coordinated activation of various signaling pathways and cytokines.However,the exact pathological mechanism for scar formation remains unclear,leading to a lack of radical treatment.Recently,laser treatment has gained popularity as a new minimally invasive approach for scar treatment.The emergence of new theories such as fractional,picosecond laser,and laser-assisted drug delivery has led to continuous advance in laser treatment.Up to now,it has been developed numerous novel treatments,including combined with drug,physical,and other treatments,which have shown superior therapeutic effects.In order to optimize laser treatment in the future,it is crucial to combine new materials with postoperative care.This will help clinicians develop more comprehensive treatment strategies.Therefore,it is important to explore treatment options that have broader applicability.

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.

Brain edema belongs to the category of "stroke" and "true headache", while Traditional Chinese Medicine mostly understands its core disease mechanisms from the perspectives of stasis, deficiency, and heat, and mostly treats the disease by using warming yang to induce diuresis and eliminating stasis to remove water. Wuling Powder has been lauded as the "first party to typhoid and relieving diuresis", which is used to cure clearing damp and promoting diuresis and warming yang and transforming qi, and has been clinically used in the treatment of brain edema caused by various causes such as head trauma, intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, and intracranial space occupying, all with remarkable efficacy. Wuling Powder improves cellular energy supply, scavenges excess oxygen radicals and calcium ions in brain tissue, and reduces the damage to brain tissue caused by vascular inflammatory factors and regulates aquaporins and vascular endothelial growth factor, thereby achieving therapeutic effects.

Novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection can cause severe illness and even death in certain populations. Omicron variant infection may lead to systemic inflammatory response, coagulation disorder, multi-organ dysfunction and other pathophysiological changes, which are different from other Novel coronavirus variants to a certain extent, so therapeutic strategies should not be the same. The National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory medicine, intensive care, pediatrics and fever clinic to develop this quick guideline based on the current best evidence and extensive clinical practices. This quick guideline aims to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of novel coronavirus Omicron infection, and to improve the disease management abilities of clinicians.

Objective:To investigate the effect of vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT) combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis (LVA) in the treatment of lymphedema after breast cancer surgery.Methods:The data of patients with upper limb lymphedema after breast cancer surgery who were treated in the Department of Reconstructive and Reconstructive Microsurgery, Ruikang Hospital Affiliated to Guangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2021 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into LVA group and VLNT combined LVA group. Indocyanine green (ICG) near-infrared lymphography was performed on all affected limbs before surgery. In the LVA group, according to the results of ICG lymphography, 4 to 5 levels of the affected limb were selected, Z shaped incisions were made and dissescted until the subcutaneous fat layer. End-to-end or end-to-side anastomosis was performed between lymphatic vessels and subcutaneous venules under the microscope. In the VLNT combined LVA group, the branches of brachial artery and vein in the axillary region were marked. The inguinal flap with the superficial iliac circumflex vessel pedicle and 4-5 lymph nodes was dissected. End-to-end anastomoses of the superficial iliac circumflex vessel pedicle with the branches of brachial artery and vein were performed in the axillary region of the affected limb. LVA was performed according to ICG lymphography, the same as in the LVA group. The skin and soft tissue condition of the affected limb and the blood supply of the flap in the VLNT combined LVA group were observed after operation. The circumference of the upper arm (from the wrist to 32 cm above the wrist, every 4 cm, a total of 9 levels of circumference) and upper limb volume were measured before and after operation. SPSS 24.0 was used for data processing and analysis. Measurement data were expressed Mean±SD. The data before and after operation in the same group were compared by paired samples t test, and the comparison between the two groups was conducted by independent samples t test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 14 female patients were enrolled, with 7 patients in each group. All cases were unilateral lymphedema. There were no significant differences in age, stage of disease, limb circumference and limb volume between the two groups before operation ( P>0.05). After operation, the skin and soft tissue condition of the affected limbs were good, and no complications such as erysipelas, cellulitis, or lymphangitis occurred. All flaps in the VLNT combined LVA group survived successfully, and the operation wounds healed well. There were no complications such as infection and necrosis of the flaps. One year after operation, the circumference and volume of the affected limb in the two groups were improved to varying degrees, and the circumference of the affected limb (wrist, upper wrist 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32 cm levels) in the VLNT combined LVA group was significantly smaller than that before operation ( P<0.01). In the LVA group, the circumference of the affected limb (wrist, upper wrist 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 cm levels) after operation was significantly smaller than that before operation ( P<0.05). The limb volumes of both groups were significantly reduced ( P<0.05). The comparison between the two groups showed that the reduction degree of postoperative affected limb cricumference (at the levels of 24, 28 and 32 cm above the wrist) and volume in the VLNT combined LVA group were more significant than those in the LVA group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with LVA alone, VLNT combined with LVA is more effective in the treatment of patients with upper limb lymphedema after breast cancer surgery.
