Regional odontodysplasia(ROD)is a localized developmental anomaly involving deciduous and perma-nent dentition,with a significant impact on patients.The affected teeth display unique ghost-like radiological characteris-tics,clinically manifesting as delayed tooth eruption,abnormal tooth morphology,and recurrent swelling of gingiva.In this paper,we report a case of a 2-year-old patient with ROD whose chief complaint was facial cellulitis.We analyze the medical history,clinical examination,radiographic findings,and histologic findings,and review the pathological fea-tures,pathogenesis,multidisciplinary diagnosis,and treatment of ROD.This rare case,which offers clinical samples for its further study,can provide a deeper study of ROD.

Objective: To examine the Longitudinal influence of perceived discrimination on pro social behavior of left alone junior middle school students and to explore the longitudinal mediating role of teacher-student relationship and classmate relationship, so as to provide a reference for improving pro social behavior of left behind junior middle school students. Methods: The Perceived Discrimination Questionnaire, Teacher-Student Relationship Questionnaire, Classmate Relationship Questionnaire and Prosocial Behavior Questionnaire were used to conduct two follow up surveys on 930 left behind junior middle school students in Guizhou Province at two time points, in mid November 2021(T1) and mid May 2022(T2). Deviation corrected Bootstrap method was used to examine the mediating effect of T2 teacher-student relationship and T2 classmate relationship on the impact of T1 discrimination perception on T2 pro social behavior. Results: The perceptions of discrimination, teacher-student relationship, classmate relationship, and pro social behavior scores of the left behind junior high school students were (1.98±0.94) (4.13± 0.77 ) (3.54±0.91) (3.52±0.75) for T1, and (3.98±0.83)(3.42±0.86)(3.48±0.72) for teacher-student relationship, classmate relationships and pro social behavior scrores of T2. After controlling for gender, age and self assessment of family economic status, T1 perceived discrimination negatively predicted T2 pro social behavior ( β =-0.07); and T1 perceived discrimination indirectly influenced T2 pro social behavior through T2 teacher-student relationship, and mediated effect value was -0.02(95% CI = -0.02 to -0.01); and T1 perceived discrimination indirectly influenced T2 pro social behavior through T2 classmate relationship, mediated effect was -0.03(95% CI =-0.05 to -0.02)( P <0.05). Conclusions Perceived discrimination not only directly reduces pro social behavior of left behind junior middle school students, but also indirectly and negatively affects pro social behavior of left alone junior middle school students by reducing teacher-student relationship and classmate relationship.

Objective:To explore the establishment of an evaluation index system for the core competence of nurses in oncology department.Methods:A research team was established. The framework of the core competence evaluation index system for oncology nurses and the expert consultation questionnaire were initially constructed. Based on the initially constructed core competence framework system and the implementation principle of Delphi expert correspondence, the letter inquiry materials were sent by WeChat or email. The members of the research team collected expert opinions and conducted screening, integration, statistical analysis, and modification. When the expert correspondence opinions reached a consensus, the letter inquiry was stopped. An evaluation index system for the core competence of oncology nurses was finally established. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0. The expert authority coefficient was calculated based on the judgment coefficient and the familiarity coefficient. The coordination of expert opinions was assessed using the coefficient of variation (CV) and Kendall's coefficient of concordance.Results:A total of 15 experts from grade A tertiary hospitals in many provinces and cities in China were included in two rounds of expert correspondence. The effective recovery rate of the two rounds of expert consultation questionnaire was 100.00%, and the expert authority coefficients of the two rounds were 0.91 and 0.89, respectively. The CVs of the first, second, and third indices in the first and second rounds of expert consultation were 0-0.348 and 0-0.226, respectively. After the two rounds of expert consultation, the CVs of all indices were <0.25. Finally, the evaluation index system for the core competence of oncology nurses was established, including 3 first-level indicators, 17 second-level indicators, and 45 third-level indicators.Conclusions:The evaluation index system for the core competence of oncology nurses constructed in this study provides a theoretical basis and practical guide for the evaluation and training of oncology nurse core competence in China.

Objective:This study aimed at analyzing risk factors associated with surgical outcomes of neonatal total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) in our center.Methods:A total of 105 neonates who underwent surgical repair for TAPVC from January 1st, 2009 to January 1st, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The anatomical types of TAPVC included supracardiac 42(40%, 42/105), cardiac 21(20%, 21/105), infracardiac 36(34.3%, 36/105), and mixed 6(5.7%, 6/105). The Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to analyze the risk factors related to postoperative pulmonary venous obstruction (PVO) and mortality. Kaplan- Meier analysis was used to analyze the overall survival rates. Results:Twenty-six patients (24.8%, 26/105) were diagnosed with preoperative PVO. The 30-day, 1 year, and 5 years survival rate was 92.4%, 86.7%, and 86.7% respectively. Postoperative PVO occurred in 17 patients (16.2%, 17/105). Preoperative acidosis, low surgical weight, prolonged duration of cardiopulmonary bypass time, increasing postoperative central venous pressure (CVP), and reoperation were risk factors associated with mortality. Preoperative acidosis ( P<0.001), prolonged duration of cardiopulmonary bypass time ( P<0.001), and increasing postoperative CVP ( P=0.005) were independent risk factors for mortality. Mixed TAPVC, preoperative acidosis, low surgical age, prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time, postoperative pulmonary arterial hypertension were risk factors associated with postoperative PVO. Prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time ( P=0.029), postoperative pulmonary arterial hypertension ( P<0.001), and mixed TAPVC ( P=0.017) were independent risk factors associated with postoperative PVO. Conclusion:The surgical outcomes of neonatal TAPVC in our center were acceptable, with low mortality rate and incidence of PVO. However, neonates with preoperative acidosis, prolonged duration of cardiopulmonary bypass time, and increased postoperative CVP had a poor prognosis. Patients with mixed TAPVC were at increased risk for postoperative PVO.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a weighted least square method for the accelerated degradation analysis of protein-type biological standard substances.METHODS: A mathematical model was proposed to estimate the parameters of degradation rate constants k at the elevated temperatures based on the Arrhenius or Eyring equation and chemical reaction principles under the suitable assumptions. Hence, it is probably to predict the stability of biological standard at the normal condition by solving the model.RESULTS: According to the experimental data of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and interferon α-2a, the preliminary numerical experiments were also performed and the results confirm the reliability of the method in the paper.CONCLUSION: The same methodology may be applied in the pharmaceutical industry where it is necessary to predict the viable shelf-life of biological products.

ObjectiveTo summarize and review the clinical characteristics of congenital pulmonary lymphangiectasia with fetal bilateral pleural effusions.MethodsThe clinical data of a newborn diagnosed as congenital pulmonary lymphangiec-tasia with bilateral pleural effusions in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, was summarized. The clinical, radiographic features, treatment and prognosis of this case are discussed in the context of the literature review.ResultsThe premature infants present-ed with rapid progression bilateral pleural effusions, respiratory distress, chylothorax, hypoalbuminemia and persistent pulmo-nary hypertension at birth. The pulmonary surfactant was given and mechanical ventilation was used for respiratory support. NO was inhaled, high-frequency mechanical ventilation was applied and albumin was repeatedly administered. After treatment for 3 months in the NICU, the patient was discharged. After 10 days, the patient was administered to the PICU with severe pneumo-nia, chronic lung disease, mechanical ventilation and anti-infection treatments were applied for 2 months. After living for six months, the baby died.ConclusionsCongenital pulmonary lymphangiectasia is extremely rare and prenatal diagnosis was dif-ifcult. The disease should be considered in patients presented with progressive dyspnea, interstitial emphysema after birth. Lung tissue biopsy and radioisotope scanning should be performed in time to get diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical presentation,diagnosis,and surgical management of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis.Methods One case of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis in a previously healthy 17-year-old female related to the development of NMDA receptor autoantibodies triggered by an ovarian teratoma was reported.The related literature was reviewed and the clinical feature was summarized.Results Removal of the ovarian teratoma combined with intravenous immuneglobulin and corticosteroid proved curative with eventual resolution of the paraneoplastic disease process and associated psychiatric symptoms.Conclusion Increasingly,reports of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis associated with ovarian teratomas,as well as a novel assay to measure these antibodies suggest an etiology for this disease process that may be amenable to prompt surgical excision.

Objective To evaluate the effects and safety of uterine artery embolization for uterine leiomyoma. Methods Total of 185 patients with uterine leiomyoma were treated by UAE. They were followed for one to 6 years to observe the changes of leiomyoma size and improvement in clinical symptoms. Ovarian function was evaluated in 44 cases. Results Bilateral embolization of uterine arteries was performed in 185 patients. Follow-up of 1 ～6 years for 292 leiomyoma indicated that one to 9 months after embolization, shrinkage of leiomyoma size was the most significant factor. One year after embolization, leiomyoma sizes decreased a little. Shrinkage of submucous leiomyoma was more significant than that of intratumoral one, and the latter was more significant than subserous one. Shrinkage of leiomyoma with large size ( volume ≥ 150cm~3) was less than that of small one. Menorrhagia, anemia and pressure symptoms were all resolved. There was no significant difference between pre- and post embolization ovarian hormone level. Conclusions The significant reduction in leiomyoma volume and resolution of clinical symptoms confirmed that the treatment validity of symptomatic leiomyomas by UAE. UAE is an effective therapeutic procedure which has no adverse effect on the ovarian function.
