For syndrome of liver depression restricting spleen， the treatment should soothe liver and invigorate spleen， resolve depression and regulate the middle； for syndrome of liver depression and phlegm coagulation， the treatment should resolve depression and phlegm， support the earth and free the wood； for syndrome of liver depression transforming into fire， the treatment should soothe liver and clear fire， resolve depression and dysphoria； for syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis， the treatment should activate blood and regulate the middle， resolve depression and tranquilise mind.

Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

ObjectiveThis study aims to examine the effect of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma-Coptidis Rhizoma on reducing insulin resistance in db/db mice by regulating the adenylate activated protein kinase （AMPK）/UNC-51-like kinase 1 （ULK1）/key molecule of autophagy， benzyl chloride 1 （Beclin1） pathway and elucidate the underlying mechanism. MethodSixty 6-week-old male db/db mice were studied. They were randomly divided into the model group， metformin group （0.26 g·kg^-1）， and low-， middle-， and high-dose groups （2.25， 4.5， 9 g·kg^-1） of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma-Coptidis Rhizoma. A blank group of db/m mice of the same age was set， with 12 mice in each group. After eight weeks of continuous intragastric administration， the blank group and model group received distilled water intragastrically once a day. The survival status of the mice was observed， and fasting blood glucose （FBG） was measured using a Roche blood glucose device. Fasting serum insulin （FINS） was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay， and the insulin resistance index （HOMA-IR） was calculated. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to observe the pathological changes in the liver of the mice. The protein expression levels of AMPK， Beclin1， autophagy associated protein 5 （Atg5）， and p62 in liver tissue were determined by using Western blot. The protein expression levels of autophagy associated protein 1 light chain 3B （LC3B） and ULK1 in liver tissue were determined using immunofluorescence. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR （Real-time PCR） was used to measure mRNA expression levels of AMPK， Beclin1， Atg5， ULK1， and p62. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group exhibited a significant increase in body mass （P<0.01）. Additionally， the levels of FBG， FINS， and HOMA-IR significantly changed （P<0.01）. The structure of liver cells was disordered. The protein expression levels of AMPK， Beclin1， and Atg5 in liver tissue were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， while the expression level of p62 protein was significantly increased （P<0.01）. The expression levels of mRNA and proteins were consistent. Compared with the model group， the body mass of the metformin group and high and medium-dose groups of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma-Coptidis Rhizoma was significantly decreased （P<0.05）. FBG， FINS， and HOMA-IR were significantly decreased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. After treatment， the liver structure damage in each group was alleviated to varying degrees. The protein expressions of AMPK， Beclin1， Atg5， LC3B， and ULK1 were increased （P<0.05，P<0.01）， while the protein expression of p62 was decreased （P<0.01）. The expression levels of mRNA and proteins were generally consistent. ConclusionThe combination of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma-Coptidis Rhizoma can effectively improve liver insulin resistance， regulate the AMPK autophagy signaling pathway， alleviate insulin resistance in db/db mice， and effectively prevent the occurrence and development of type 2 diabetes.

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.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of chronic osteomyelitis and to clarify the role of MAPK signal pathway in the pathogenesis of chronic osteomyelitis,by collecting and analyzing the transcriptional information of bone tissue in patients with chronic osteomyelitis.Methods Four cases of traumatic osteomyelitis in limbs from June 2019 to June 2020 were selected,and the samples of necrotic osteonecrosis from chronic osteomyelitis(necrotic group),and normal bone tissue(control group)were collected.Transcriptome information was collected by Illumina Hiseq Xten high throughput sequencing platform,and the gene expression in bone tissue was calculated by FPKM.The differentially expressed genes were screened by comparing the transcripts of the Necrotic group and control group.Genes were enriched by GO and KEGG.MAP3K7 and NFATC1 were selected as differential targets in the verification experiments,by using rat osteomyelitis animal model and im-munohistochemical analysis.Results A total of 5548 differentially expressed genes were obtained by high throughput sequenc-ing by comparing the necrotic group and control group,including 2701 up-regulated and 2847 down-regulated genes.The genes enriched in MAPK pathway and osteoclast differentiation pathway were screened,the common genes expressed in both MAPK and osteoclast differentiation pathway were(inhibitor of nuclear factor κ subunit Beta,IκBKβ),(mitogen-activated protein ki-nase 7,MAP3K7),(nuclear factor of activated t cells 1,NFATC1)and(nuclear factor Kappa B subunit 2,NFκB2).In rat os-teomyelitis model,MAP3K7 and NFATC1 were highly expressed in bone marrow and injured bone tissue.Conclusion Based on the transcriptome analysis,the MAPK signaling and osteoclast differentiation pathways were closely related to chronic os-teomyelitis,and the key genes IκBKβ,MAP3K7,NFATC1,NFκB2 might be new targets for clinical diagnosis and therapy of chronic osteomyelitis.

Objective:To explore the value of circ_0054633 in early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) in children with severe pneumonia.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted on children with diagnosed severe pneumonia admitted to Tianjin Children's Hospital from July 1, 2022, to February 29, 2024. The clinical data was collected by electronic medical record system and clinical follow-up, including gender, age, lung injury prediction score (LIPS), pediatric critical illness score (PCIS), serum circ_0054633, interleukin-6 (IL-6), the indicators of the arterial blood-gas analysis, oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) within 24 hours of admission and the survival status of 28 days. According to whether ALI/ARDS occurred, they were divided into the ALI/ARDS group and the non-ALI/ARDS group. The differences of clinical data between the two groups were compared, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for ALI/ARDS in children with severe pneumonia. The receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) will be used to explore the early diagnostic value of ALI/ARDS in children with severe pneumonia. The patients of ALI/ARDS were divided into mild group, moderate group and severe group according to the level of PaO 2/FiO 2. The levels of serum circ_0054633 and IL-6 in various severity ALI/ARDS were compared. The differences of serum circ_0054633, IL-6 levels, PCIS score and LIPS score were compared between the two groups of ALI/ARDS patients according to different prognoses in 28 days, as well as the correlation between various risk factors and circ_0054633. Results:A total 74 children with severe pneumonia were included, with 34 cases in the ALI/ARDS group and 40 cases in the non-ALI/ARDS group. In ALI/ARDS group, there were 9 cases in the mild group, 15 cases in the moderate group and 10 cases in the severe group; while 12 cases died and 22 cases survived after 28 days. The serum circ_0054633, IL-6 level and LIPS score were higher in the ALI/ARDS group than the non-ALI/ARDS group, while the PCIS score was lower, and the two groups had significant difference. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that circ_0054633 was independent predictors of ALI/ARDS in children with severe pneumonia [odds ratio ( OR) = 3.853, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.912-7.805, P = 0.017]. ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off values for circ_0054633 in the diagnosis of ALI/ARDS were 3.955, sensitivity was 79.4%, specificity was 92.5%, area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.892. The serum circ_0054633 and IL-6 levels were higher in the children who died in 28 days than the children who were survived, while the PCIS score was lower, and the two groups had significant difference. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the level of circ_0054633 in children with ALI/ARDS was positively correlated with 28-day mortality and IL-6 ( r value was 0.675, 0.763, respectively, all P < 0.001), but negatively correlated with PCIS score ( r = -0.626, P < 0.001), while no significant correlation with LIPS score ( r = 0.389, P = 0.023). Conclusion:The level of serum circ_0054633 has a better value in early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of ALI/ARDS caused in children with severe pneumonia.
