In the field of oral medicine, 3D-printed individualized titanium mesh technology is gradually becoming an important means for the treatment of severe alveolar bone defect augmentation. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the advantages of this technology, the evaluation of osteogenic effects, and the progress of research in clinical applications. In response to the current issue of variability in bone augmentation outcomes, this paper delves into multiple factors affecting bone augmentation effects, including individualized titanium mesh design (involving the thickness, pore size, pore shape, porosity, contour shape, selection of titanium alloy materials, and 3D printing technology), intraoperative procedures (the accuracy of placement during 3D-printed individualized titanium mesh surgery), and postoperative care (including the prevention of complications, formation of pseudoperiosteum, and stability of the titanium mesh). By integrating the clinical experience and research findings of our team, we propose a series of targeted optimization strategies, including designing, manufacturing, and clinically applying self-positioning individualized titanium meshs (positioning wings + individualized titanium meshs) to improve the positioning accuracy of the titanium mesh; propose individualized treatment processes and titanium mesh design schemes based on specific conditions of alveolar bone defects and soft tissue status; and emphasize the importance of long-term stable fixation of the titanium mesh to reduce the risk of postoperative mesh loosening and displacement. In addition, we appropriately summarize the evaluation methods for the bone augmentation effects of 3D-printed individualized titanium meshes, covering the following key indicators: (1) vertical bone augmentation and horizontal bone augmentation; (2) changes in bone contour morphology; (3) bone volume increase; (4) clinical indicators (surgical success rate, titanium mesh exposure, infection rate, and postoperative recovery); (5) aesthetic effect evaluation; (6) long-term stability; (7) radiological assessment; (8) patient satisfaction; and (9) precision of surgical operation, aiming to assist doctors in comprehensively assessing and in-depth analyzing the surgical outcomes to achieve the best therapeutic effects. The purpose of this article is to provide a reference for the optimization and clinical application of 3D-printed individualized titanium mesh technology and to lay a theoretical foundation for achieving the best osteogenic effects.

The setting and adjustment of ventilator parameters need to rely on a large amount of clinical data and rich experience. This paper explored the problem of difficult decision-making of ventilator parameters due to the time-varying and sudden changes of clinical patient's state, and proposed an expert knowledge-based strategies for ventilator parameter setting and stepless adaptive adjustment based on fuzzy control rule and neural network. Based on the method and the real-time physiological state of clinical patients, we generated a mechanical ventilation decision-making solution set with continuity and smoothness, and automatically provided explicit parameter adjustment suggestions to medical personnel. This method can solve the problems of low control precision and poor dynamic quality of the ventilator's stepwise adjustment, handle multi-input control decision problems more rationally, and improve ventilation comfort for patients.

Objective:To investigate the pathological characteristics in chronic HBV infection patients with different upper limits of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normal values and the influencing factors of liver tissue injury.Methods:The clinical data of 667 chronic HBV infection patients with ALT<40 U/L and HBV DNA loads >30 IU/mL who received liver biopsy in Zhenhai District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Hwa Mei Hospital from January 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The enrolled patients were divided into ALTⅠ group (<30 U/L for males, <19 U/L for females), ALTⅡ group (≥30 U/L and <35 U/L for males, ≥19 U/L and <25 U/L for females) and ALT Ⅲ group (≥35 U/L and <40 U/L for males, ≥25 U/L and <40 U/L for females). According to the degree of liver inflammation (G) and fibrosis stage (S), the enrolled patients were divided into non-significant damage group (G<2 and S<2) and significant damage group (≥G2 or/and ≥S2). Ridit analysis was used to compare the G/S composition ratio among three ALT groups, Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of liver injury, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to analyze the optimal diagnostic threshold of ALT.Results:There were significant differences in the composition ratio of G and S among the three ALT groups( χ2=13.926 and 14.702, both P<0.001). The constituent ratios of significant liver pathological damage in the three groups of ALT levels were 26.05% (99/380), 32.03% (41/128) and 46.54% (74/159), respectively( χ2=21.596, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high white/globulin ratio and PLT counts( OR=0.246 and 0.986, both P<0.001)were the protective factors for liver tissue injury; while negative HBcAg staining and elevated ALT and GGT levels ( OR=3.797, 1.053 and 1.013, P<0.001 or <0.05) were the risk factors of liver injury. ROC curve demonstrated the ALT threshold of liver tissue damage in male and female patients were 25.6 U/L and 25.5 U/L. Conclusions:In chronic HBV infection patients with normal ALT, with the increase of ALT level, the degree of liver tissue pathological damage may become more severe. The study demonstrates that it is necessary to lower the ALT threshold for protecting patients from liver tissue pathological damage.

Objective:To establish and evaluate a new diagnostic model for significant liver tissue damage in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in the immune tolerance phase.Methods:The clinical data of 275 chronic HBV infection patients in the immune tolerance phase who underwent liver biopsy from January 2015 to November 2020 in the Hwa Mei Hospital, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences were included. According to the liver pathological changes, patients were divided into

Objective:To compare and analyze the clinicopathological features and significance for indications of different types of antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods:Clinical data of 861 CHB cases who received liver biopsy, had hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA-positive (> 30 IU/ml) and met the indications for antiviral therapy from January 2014 to December 2019 were included. Liver pathological changes and their correlation with clinical characteristics were compared and analyzed. According to different data, t-test, analysis of variance, nonparametric test, χ2 test, Ridit and logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:Most of the cases (72.24%) had remarkable pathological damage. The degree of liver fibrosis was higher in the normal than the abnormal group ( P<0.001). 17.54% cases had hepatic steatosis. The vast majority of cases (97.33%) had positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), while only 50.87% had positive hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg). The positive correlation factors affecting the severity of liver histopathology were alkaline phosphatase level, while the negative correlation factors were positive HBcAg staining, albumin and platelet level. The degree of liver inflammation and fibrosis had statistically significant differences with different HBcAg staining levels ( χ2=44.142 and 102.386, respectively; P<0.001), and the severity was more apparent in the negative group. Conclusion:There exist differences in clinicopathological features for indications of different types of antiviral therapy in patients with CHB. Liver function test range is inconsistent with degrees of hepatic histological severity. The positive and intensity of liver tissue HBcAg staining, and albumin and alanine aminotransferase levels have negative correlation with disease severity.

Objective:To analyze the liver pathology, clinical characteristics and influence factors in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in immune tolerant phase (IT).Methods:The clinical data of 273 patients in IT phase who underwent liver biopsy from January 2015 to December 2019 were included in this study. The correlation between liver pathological changes and clinical features was analyzed.Results:There were 43 cases (15.75%) with liver histologic activity ≥ G2, 30 cases (10.99%) with liver fibrosis ≥ S2, and 55 cases (20.15%) with liver pathology ≥ G2 and/or ≥ S2. A total of 17.95% patients had liver steatosis. The majority (98.17%) of tissue samples were positive for HBsAg staining, while only 79.49% were positive for HBcAg. The characteristics of liver pathology were comparable in men from women patients. The differences of G and S were not statistically significant according to different HBsAg positivity, while those were statistically significant according to different HBcAg positivity. By univariate and multivariate analysis, the independent risk factors of pathological severity were HBcAg intensity, HBeAg level, and age. However, the differences of liver histologic activity and fibrosis were not statistically significant between those younger than 30 years old group from those older than 30 years old, neither between those younger or older than 40. Although the diagnostic value of liver inflammation and fibrosis 5 (LIF-5) was better than that of aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) and fibrosis 4 score (FIB-4), three diagnostic models for predicting the pathological severity were not strong enough (all area under the curves<0.8). Only the specificity of LIF-5 for predicting≥ G2, ≥ G2 and/or ≥ S2 was over 80%.Conclusions:Approximately 20% patients with chronic HBV infection in IT phase have progressive liver inflammation or fibrosis. The intensity of liver HBcAg and HBeAg level are negatively correlated with the severity of disease. The diagnostic models or most clinical indicators have low predictive effect for chronic HBV infections in IT phase.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy and safety of icotinib hydrochloride tablets combined with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) brain metastasis.Methods Fifty-three patients with NSCLC brain metastasis who were unable to tolerate chemotherapy or chemotherapy failed were selected in Baotou Central Hospital from October 2010 to April 2015.The patients were divided into the observation group (n =27) and the control group (n =26) using random number table method.Two patients were dropped out,one in the control group and one in the observation group.The patients in the control group were given WBRT (30 Gy/15 Fx).On this basis,the patients in the observation group were given icotinib hydrochloride tablets 125 mg,3 times a day.The patients were followed up for 18 months after the end of WBRT.The adverse reactions,clinical efficacy and the median survival times of the two groups were compared.Results The objective response rate of the observation group was 88.5％,which was higher than that of the control group (64.0％),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.238,P =0.040).The incidence rates of skin rash and liver function damage in the observation group were 76.9％ and 15.4％,which were higher than those in the control group (0,x2=31.638,P ＜ 0.001;x2 =4.173,P =0.041).However,most of them were degree Ⅰ-Ⅱ,and they were tolerable.There were no significant differences in the incidence of myelosuppression and gastrointestinal reactions between the two groups (26.9％ vs.20.0％,x2 =0.339,P=0.560;34.6％ vs.28.0％,x2 =0.259,P=0.611).The median survival time in the observation group (9.0 months) was longer than that in the control group (7.0 months).The one year survival rate of the observation group was 33.3％,which was higher than that of the control group (23.1％),but the difference was not significant (x2 =0.676,P =0.411).Conclusion Icotinib hydrochloride tablets combined with WBRT in the treatment of brain metastasis with NSCLC can significantly improve the curative effects of brain metastasis,and it has a survival advantage,with tolerable adverse reactions.

Objective: To detect differentially expressed microRNAs in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) before being treated with pegylated interferon (PegIFN) and the relationship between their target genes and HBsAg loss. Methods: Pretreatment differentially expressed microRNAs between different response groups were screened using high throughput microarrays and validated by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Bioinformatics analysis was performed to determine their target genes potential mechanistic roles. Results: A total of 417 microRNA were differentially expressed between different response groups, among which 342 were up-regulated and 75 were down-regulated. miR-3960, miR-126-3p, miR-23 a-3p and miR-335-5p were verified to be down-regulated by RT-qPCR result in HBsAg loss group. Bioinformatic analysis result show that the relevant pathways of microRNAs include AMPK signal pathway, NOD-like signal pathway, NF-kappa B signal pathway and mTOR signal pathway. Conclusions HBsAg loss is probably achieved as the result of genes expression regulated in association with immune response, further enhance the immune response of HBV elimination and acquire HBsAg loss.

In recent years, with the wide use of antimicrobial agents, the adverse reactions related to antimicrobial agents have attracted more and more attention.Among them, the adverse reactions in hematological system induced by antibacterial agents seriously affect patient′s health and doctor′s selection for antibiotics.For example, some beta lactam antibiotics can cause dysfunction of coagulation and hemolytic anemia.Chloramphenicol and sulfonamides can cause aplastic anemia.Linezolid can cause thrombocytopenia and anemia.It is important to understand the adverse reactions in hematological system caused by antibiotics.In this paper, the antibiotic induced adverse reactions in hematological system and their mechanism were summarized in order to provide information for the rational use of antimicrobial agents.
