In the field of dental aesthetics,digital aesthetic design plays a crucial role in helping dentists to predict treatment outcomes vis-ually,as well as in enhancing the consistency of knowledge and understanding of aesthetic goals between dentists and patients.It serves as the foundation for achieving ideal aesthetic effects.However,there is no clear standard for this digital process currently in China and abroad.Many dentists lack of systematic understanding of how to carry out digital aesthetic design for treatment.To establish standardized processes for dental aesthetic design and to improve the homogeneity of treatment outcomes,Chinese Society of Digital Dental Industry(CSD-DI)convened domestic experts in related field to compile this consensus.This article elaborates on the key aspects of digital aesthetic data collection,integration steps,and the digital aesthetic design process.It also formulates a decision tree for dental aesthetics at macro level and outlines corresponding workflows for various clinical scenarios,serving as a reference for clinicians.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk stratification of 182 patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE), and to investigate the correlation of neutrophil (N)/lymphocyte (L) ratio (NLR) and risk stratification/prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 182 APE patients admitted to Peking University People’s Hospital from January 2015 to March 2021 were retrospectively collected, including age, sex, symptoms and signs, blood pressure, blood gas analysis, blood routine parameters, cardiac biomarkers, coagulation parameters, and right ventricular imaging parameters. The patients were divided into groups according to the risk stratification at admission and prognosis in hospital. χ2 test, t test or nonparametric test were used to analyze the differences in clinical characteristics, blood routine parameters, blood gas analysis, coagulation parameters and other parameters between the groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to study the independent risk factors for the prognosis of APE. Results:Among the 182 patients, 79 were male and 103 were female, 23 were in the high-risk group, 51 were in the intermediate-high-risk group, 46 were in the intermediate-low risk group, and 62 were in the low-risk group. There were 27 deaths and 155 survivors. The respiratory rate of the high/intermediate-high-risk group was significantly higher than that of the low/intermediate-low-risk group. Compared with the other three groups, pH, oxygen partial pressure (PO 2) and blood oxygen saturation (SO 2) in the high-risk group were significantly lower ( both P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in WBC, N, and NLR levels between the high/intermediate-high-risk group and low/intermediate-low-risk group ( both P<0.05). However there were no significant differences in PLT, PLT/MPV, PLT/PDW, and coagulation related parameters PT, FIB, APTT and D-D between groups (all P > 0.05). MPV and PDW were only significantly different between the low-risk group, intermediate-low-risk group and high-risk group ( both P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR ( OR=1.179,95% CI:1.029-1.410, P=0.039) and PH ( OR=1.156,95% CI:1.031-1.522, P=0.041) were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality. The ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive value of NLR for in-hospital mortality. When the cutoff value of NLR was 8.38, the AUC of NLR was 0.824 (95% CI: 0.829-0.913), the corresponding sensitivity was 0.831, and the specificity was 0.887. Conclusions:NLR is correlated with risk stratification and prognosis of APE, and is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis.

Objective:To seek specific response points on the body surface of patients with primary dysmenorrhea(PD)by observing blood perfusion unit(PU)at different points of the three Yin meridians of foot using laser speckle contrast imaging(LSCI). Methods:Eighty PD patients were recruited as a PD group,and 80 healthy female undergraduates were taken as a normal group.During one menstrual cycle(before menstruation,during menstruation,and 3 d after menstruation),each participant was examined using the LSCI system to determine PU at bilateral Taixi(KI3),Taibai(SP3),Taichong(LR3),Shuiquan(KI5),Diji(SP8),Zhongdu(LR6),Sanyinjiao(SP6),and Xuehai(SP10)and non-acupuncture points.The researchers in charge of point location,operation,and statistical analysis were not aware of grouping.PU at the detection spots was taken as the outcome measure. Results:Compared with the normal group,the PD group showed increases in PU at right Taixi(KI3)before menstruation(P<0.05)and at bilateral Zhongdu(LR6)and right Diji(SP8)during menstruation(P<0.05).At the other time points,significance was not found between the two groups in comparing PU at the detected spots. Conclusion:Compared with healthy participants,PD patients present specific changes in PU at Taixi(KI3),Diji(SP8),and Zhongdu(LR6)at specific time points during the menstrual cycle,which provides a reference for acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of PD in clinical settings.

Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess accompanied by metastatic infectious complications was firstly reported in 1986. The pathogen was defined as Hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp) after a series of studies, which is an evolving pathotype and more virulent than classical K. pneumoniae (cKp). At present, it is difficult to distinguish hvKp and cKp in the clinical microbiology lab, which results in delay in early diagnosis and treatment on hvKp-related infections. Biliary tract diseases after cholangiojejunostomy, biliary interventional therapy and liver transplantation have become common causes of recurrent acute cholangitis. The incidence of bacterial liver abscess is on the rise, especially the infection caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. This article reviews difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial liver abscess.

Objective: To explore the relationship between sleep problems and non-suicidal self-injury behavior in Chinese college students, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and intervention of non-suicidal self-injury behavior. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 11 689 college students from three universities in Guangzhou were selected as the research subjects. A questionnaire survey of college students’ mental health was conducted to investigate non-suicidal self-injury behavior, sleep problems, demographic information, lifestyle, and depressive symptoms. Results: In the past year, the prevalence rates of non-suicidal self-injury in college students was 7.8%. Univariate Logistic analysis showed that all sleep problems were associated with non-suicidal self-injury behavior(P<0.05). After controlling for potential confounders,including grade,gender,parents’ education level,health conditon,family income,smoking,drinking and depression,multivariate Logistic regression showed that shorter sleep time at weekend (<7 h/d), insomnia symptoms and frequent nightmares significantly increased the risk of nonsuicidal selfinjury behavior in college students (OR=1.32-3.25, P<0.05), while longer sleep time at weekdays (≥9 h/d) was an important protective factor (OR=0.60, P<0.05). Conclusion These findings indicate that short sleep time, insomnia and nightmares are important risk factors for college students’ non-suicidal self-injury behavior. Intervention and management on sleep problems can effectively reduce the occurrence of self-injury behaviors.

Objective: To investigate the value of NPM1 and FLT3 gene mutation combined with bone marrow imaging detection in the prognosis judgement of initial treatment cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). Methods: The clinical data of 100 patients (non-M₃ type) with primary and initial treatment CN-AML from January 2010 to January 2014 in the Peace Hospital Affiliated of Changzhi Medical College were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were enrolled in the bone marrow imaging examination on the end day of induction treatment or the first day after the end of induction treatment (T time point). Univariate and multivariate prognostic analyses were performed on AML patients according to FLT3 and NPM1 gene status,bone marrow juvenile cell ratio at T time point. Results: A total of 100 patients included 36 cases with FLT3 gene mutation and 44 cases with NPM1 gene mutation. The complete remission (CR) rate of CN-AML patients was 13.9% (5/36) and 71.9% (46/64), respectively (P < 0.01), 2-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate was 5.6% and 59.8%, respectively (P < 0.01), 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was 15.6% and 66.2%, respectively in FLT3⁺ group and FLT3^- group (P < 0.01). The median RFS and median OS time in FLT3⁺ group was 6.9 months and 9.4 months, respectively, and the median RFS and median OS time in FLT3^- group had not yet reached. There were no significant differences of all the indexes between the two groups (all P < 0.01). And there were no significant differences in CR rate, 2-year RFS rate and 2-year OS rate between NPM1⁺ group and NPM1^- group (all P > 0.05). The CR rate, 2-year RFS rate and 2-year OS rate in NPM1⁺ FLT3^- group were better than those in NPM1^- FLT3^-, NPM1^- FLT3⁺ and NPM1⁺ FLT3⁺ groups; NPM1^- FLT3⁺ and NPM1⁺ FLT3⁺ groups had the worst prognosis, and there were no statistical differences in the CR rate, RFS and OS time between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The prognosis of the patients in bone marrow juvenile cell ratio < 0.05 group at T time point was better than that in ratio ≥0.05 group (all P < 0.05). CN-AML patients were classified into the good prognosis group (NPM1^- FLT3^-), the medium prognosis group (NPM1⁺ FLT3^-), and the poor prognosis group (NPM1^- FLT3⁺ and NPM1⁺ FLT3⁺) according to the FLT3 and NPM1 genes. The good prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point < 0.05 group, the good prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point ≥0.05 group, the medium prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point < 0.05 group had no statistical differences in CR rate, 2-year RFS rate and 2-year OS rate (all P > 0.05). The medium prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point ≥0.05 group, the poor prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point < 0.05 group had the equivalent prognosis, and the average prognosis was moderate; the poor prognosis group+ the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point ≥ 0.05 group had the worst prognosis. According to Cox multivariate regression analysis, FLT3 gene mutation and the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point were independent influencing factors for RFS and OS in CN-AML patients (all P < 0.05). NPM1 was an independent prognosis factor affecting RFS and OS of FLT3^- patients (all P < 0.05). Conclusions After induction chemotherapy, the responsiveness and sensitivity of AML patients to chemotherapy regimen can be assessed early and objectively according to molecular genetics and the ratio of bone marrow juvenile cells at T time point, which has a certain value in the prognosis judgement.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have suggested that intranasal administration is one of the ways to target drugdelivery, and can effectively make the drug that cannot pass through the blood brain barrier by other pathways to bypass the blood brain barrier, resulting in targeted delivery to the brain. It provides a promising route for the treatment of central nervous system diseases. OBJECTIVE: To study the pharmacokinetic and brain-targeted channel-tropism tissue distribution character of cimicifugoside H-1 after nasal and intravenous administration in plasma and tissues in rats, in order to evaluate the feasibility of developing brain-targeted nasal delivery system of cimicifugoside H-1 by the passage between nose and brain in nasal olfactory area. METHODS: After intravenous injection and nasal administration of cimicifugoside H-1, the drug concentrations of plasma and channel-tropism organs (lung, spleen, stomach, large intestine, liver, kidney, brain, brain, cerebelum, cerebrospinal fluid, olfactory bulb and olfactory region) were detected. Drug-time curve was drawn. DAS program was used to select apartment model and pharmacokinetics parameters. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The pharmacokinetics characters of cimicifugoside H-1 are rapidly absorbed and extensively distribution. Among major channel-tropism organs, drug concentrations were higher in the lung and brain than in the other organs. (2) Cimicifugoside H-1 could be straightly transported into brain by the intranasal administration. The molecule through olfactory mucosa in nasal cavity entered into olfactory bulb in arachno-hypostegal cavity, and then entered into olfactory region, cerebrospinal fluid, cerebrum and cerebelum gradualy. Olfactory bulb was the only way for drug molecule to go through nasal cavity into brain. (3) Compared with the intravenous injection, cimicifugoside H-1 through the intranasal administration has a significant

Objective To use metabonomics method to study the change of the basic materials of month rhythm of wei qi deficiency syndrome; To find the potential markers so as to provides a new way for the essence of the wei qi deficiency syndrome research.Methods Based on the autumnal equinox in lunar calendar month, the beginning of a month (the first day of lunar August), the middle of a month (the 15th day of lunar August), and the end of a month (the 30th day of lunar August) were set as the three days to draw experimental materials. Two weeks before drawing materials, 20 rats were randomly divided into control group and model group, 10 rats in each group. The model rats were modeled by the stimulus of fatigue combined with coldness and hotness. Control group rats received conventional breeding. The rats in the both groups during the three experiments received decollation and the blood was taken at the 12 o’clock at noon. HPLC-MS was used to detect plasma metabolites, and partial least squares were used to make statistical analysis on the data for comparing plasma metabonomics original data of control group and model group. Possible metabolic markers of wei qi deficiency syndrome were explored, and the potential makers of month rhythm change of wei qi deficiency syndrome were deduced.Results Oleamide, phosphatidyl glycerol, cortisol, proline, dimethyl fumarate, and eicosapentaenoic acid may be potential markers of wei qi deficiency syndrome in the beginning of a month. Sphingosine-1-phosphate, malic acid, cortisol, oleamide, carnitine, eicosapentaenoic acid and dimethyl fumarate may be potential markers of wei qi deficiency syndrome in the middle of a month. Cholesteryl acetate, threonine, cortisol, dimethyl fumarate, oleamide, eicosapentaenoic acid and pyroglutamate may be potential markers of wei qi deficiency syndrome in the end of a month.Conclusion Month rhythm change of wei qi deficiency syndrome may be influenced by oleamide, cortisol, eicosapentaenoic acid, dimethyl fumarate, and aconitic acid, and may be closely related to energy metabolism, meanwhile accompanied by regulation of cell, hormone and nerves.

OBJECTIVETo detect the activity of autophagy and explore the impact on survival and proliferation of HEL cells and hematopoietic cells of polycythemia vera （PV） patients with JAK2 V617F mutation.

METHODSFlow cytometry, AO staining and Western blot methods were used to detect the autophagy activity and the expression of LC3-Ⅱ protein of JAK2 V617F+ HEL cells and hematopoietic cells of 12 newly diagnosed PV patients with JAK2 V617F mutation. HEL cells and bone marrow cells of 3 PV patients were treated with rapamycin or 3-MA to induce and inhibit autophagy, respectively. CellTiter Glo(R) method was used to detect the proliferation activity of cells.

RESULTSThere was higher level of mean LC3-Ⅱ fluorescence intensity in HEL cells (159 389 ± 29 001) than that in K562 cells (96 047 ± 24 134) (P=0.044). The formation of autophagosome in HEL cells is more than that in K562 cells detected by microscope. What's more, the level of mean LC3-Ⅱ fluorescence intensity in 12 PV patients' myeloid cells (92 842 ± 4 250) was higher than that of 15 healthy volunteers (86 633 ± 2 504) (P=0.001). The expression of LC3-Ⅱ protein was higher in PV patients' peripheral blood cells than that in healthy volunteers detected by Western blot. After treated with rapamycin 12, 24, 48 h, the activity of autophagy in HEL cells and bone marrow cells of 3 PV patients were increased and the proliferation activity was higher than the control group, the proliferation activity at 48 h were (101 413 ± 3 720), (18 744 ± 1 015), respectively. However, after treated with 3-MA 12, 24, 48 h, the activity of autophagy was decreased and the proliferation activity was lower than the control group, the proliferation activity at 48 h were (5 732 ± 166), (5 371 ± 56), respectively.

CONCLUSIONThere is high basical activity of autophagy in JAK2 V617F+ HEL cells and hematopoietic cells of PV patients with JAK2 V617F mutation. Up-regulated autophagy promotes proliferation of JAK2 V617F⁺ HEL cells and bone marrow cells of PV patients with JAK2 V617F mutation. Decreased autophagy inhibits proliferation of JAK2 V617F+ HEL cells and bone marrow cells of PV patients with JAK2 V617F mutation.
