Herpes zoster of trigeminal nerve was a common skin disease caused by varicella-zoster virus infection.Simple involvement of the third branch of trigeminal nerve was rare,and so were oral complica-tions such as pulpitis,periodontitis,spontaneous tooth loss,bone necrosis,etc.This article presented a case of herpes zoster on the third branch of the left trigeminal nerve complicated with left mandibular osteonecrosis.We reported the case of a 64-year-old man with sudden pain in the left half of the tongue 1 month ago,and then herpes on the left facial skin appeared following with acute pain.The local hospital diagnosed it as herpes zoster and treated it with external medication.A few days later,he developed gum pain in the left mandibular posterior tooth area.He was admitted to Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology one week ago with loose and dislodged left posterior tooth accompanied by left mandibular bone surface exposure.Clinical examination showed bilateral symmetry and no obvious restriction of mouth opening.Visible herpes zoster pigmentation and scarring on the left side of the face appeared.The left mandibular posterior tooth was missing,the exposed bone surface was about 1.5 cm x0.8 cm,and the surrounding gingiva was red and swollen,painful under pressure,with no discharge of pus.The re-maining teeth in the mouth were all m degree loosened.Imageological examination showed irregular low-density destruction of the left mandible bone,unclear boundary,and severe resorption of alveolar bone.The patient was diagnosed as left mandibular osteonecrosis.Under general anesthesia,left mandibular le-sion exploration and curettage+left mandibular partial resection+adjacent flap transfer repair were performed.The patient was re-exmained 6 months after surgery,there was no redness,swelling or other abnormality in the gums and the herpes pigmentation on the left face was significantly reduced.Unfortu-nately,the patient had complications of postherpetic neuralgia.This case indicate that clinicians should improve their awareness of jaw necrosis,a serious oral complication of trigeminal zoster,and provide ear-ly treatment.After the inflammation was initially controlled,surgical treatment could be considered to remove the necrotic bone,curettage the inflammatory granulation tissue,and extraction of the focal teeth to avoid further deterioration of the disease.

Objective:
To learn the characteristics of varicella breakthrough cases aged under 14 years in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City and the effects of vaccination on incidence of breakthrough cases, so as to provide the basis for improving varicella vaccination strategy.
Methods:
Data of varicella cases aged under 14 years and vaccination in Haizhu District were collected through Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System and Guangdong Provincial Vaccination and Vaccine Circulation Management Information System from 2015 to 2022. Temporal distribution, population distribution and vaccination history of varicella breakthrough cases were descriptively analyzed. Effects of primary immunization age and inoculation interval on breakthrough interval were analyzed using least square method fitting bi-cubic functional equation.
Results:
A total of 4 008 varicella breakthrough cases aged under 14 years were reported in Haizhu District from 2015 to 2022, accounting for 29.16% of all varicella cases. There were mainly 1-dose breakthrough cases, with 3 607 cases accounting for 90.00%. The proportion of 1-dose breakthrough cases showed a downward trend, while the proportion of 2-dose breakthrough cases showed an upward trend (both P<0.05). The epidemics peaked from March to May and from November to January, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.41︰1. The age of onset was mainly at 4 to 6 years, with 1 189 cases accounting for 29.67%. The primary immunization age was mainly ranged from 12 to <24 months, with 2 662 cases accounting for 66.42%. Vaccination of the second dose was concentrated at the age of 48 to <60 months, with 136 cases accounting for 33.92%. The breakthrough interval was relatively long among cases with primary immunization age at 12 to <36 months and inoculation interval within 45 months, with a median breakthrough interval of 25.24 (interquartile range, 20.00) months. Primary immunization age and inoculation interval were negatively correlated with breakthrough interval (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The varicella breakthrough cases aged under 14 years in Haizhu District from 2015 to 2022 were mainly occurred at the beginning of the new term, with a high incidence among preschool children. It is recommended that children receive the first dose of varicella vaccine within 36 months of age and booster within 45 months of interval.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

A spatial-temporal convolutional neural network-based method is proposed for schizophrenia classification.Unlike the mainstream methods that only analyze the temporal frequency features in EEG and ignore the spatial features between brain regions,the model mainly obtains the spatial-frequency features by convolving the adjacency matrix composed of wavelet coherence coefficients between different channels and EEG sequences,and then extracts the temporal-frequency features through one-dimensional temporal convolution.The processed matrix is flattened after multiple convolutions and input to the classification model.Experimental results show that the method has a classification accuracy of 96.32%on the publicly available dataset Zenodo,demonstrating its effectiveness and exhibiting the advantages of fusing temporal-frequency and spatial-frequency features for schizophrenia diagnosis.

Colorectal cancer (CRC), a most common malignant tumor of the digestive tract, is often manifested by abdominal pain, changes in stool quality, blood in the stool, and weight loss, with rising morbidity and mortality year by year. The onset and development of CRC involve a variety of mechanisms, in which tumor microenvironment (TME) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have received increasing attention. TAMs influence the tumor development via immune escape and angiogenesis promotion and are associated with the prognosis of tumors. In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been widely researched and applied in the treatment of cancers. Studies have discovered that TCM mainly exerts the therapeutic effects on CRC by inhibiting the proliferation, metastasis, and angiogenesis, promoting the apoptosis, and inducing autophagy of tumor cells and boosting the immune function. TCM as an effective treatment approach can regulate TAMs to inhibit tumor growth. Moreover, the active components and targets of TCM can be taken as new research directions of immunotherapy. This review describes TAMs and their roles in CRC progression and summarizes the molecular targets and mechanisms of different active components, compound prescriptions, and novel preparations of TCM against CRC, aiming to provide a mechanism reference for the clinical treatment of CRC with TCM and give new insights into the in-depth research on the prevention and treatment of CRC-related diseases with TCM.

Objective:
To investigate the mediating effects of resilience and emotion regulation on family cumulative risk and positive coping style among primary and middle school students, so as to provide insights into promoting psychological health among them.
Methods:
The primary and middle school students from three counties (districts) of Baise City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were selected through the stratified cluster random sampling method. Resilience, emotion regulation, family cumulative risk and positive coping style were investigated using the Resilience Scale for Chinese adolescent, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Chinese family Assessment Instrument, and Simple Coping Strategies Questionnaire, respectively. Mediating effects of resilience and emotion regulation on family cumulative risk and positive coping style were examined using Process macro program.
Results:
Totally 1 076 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 006 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 93.49%. There were 515 boys, accounting for 51.19%. The median age was 13 (interquartile range, 1) years. The mean scores of resilience, emotion regulation and positive coping style were (3.36±0.63), (2.26±0.56) and (1.85±0.39) points, respectively. The median family cumulative risk index was 0 (interquartile range, 0). The results of mediating effects showed that family cumulative risk had a direct negative effect on positive coping style (β=-0.037, 95%CI: -0.059 to -0.014, P=0.011), and also had an indirect negative effect on positive coping style through psychological resilience (β=-0.029, 95%CI: -0.041 to -0.017, P=0.006) as a mediator or through psychological resilience and emotion regulation (β=-0.002, 95%CI: -0.004 to -0.001, P=0.001) as a chain mediator. The mediating effect of resilience contributed 44% to the total effect, while the chain mediating effect of resilience and emotion regulation contributed 3%.
Conclusion
Resilience and emotional regulation serve as negative mediators between family cumulative risk and positive coping style among middle and primary school students.
