Objective To understand the sleep status in patients with Parkinson39;s disease (PD), and to explore its relationship with dyskinesia and negative emotions. Methods A total of 308 patients with PD who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the hospital from September 2022 to May 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The scores of sleep status [Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)], dyskinesia [Simplified Fugl-Meyer Motor Assessment (FMA)] and negative emotions [Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II)] were analyzed, and the PSQI score was compared among patients with different demographic characteristics. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlation of sleep with dyskinesia and negative emotions in patients with PD. Results The total score of PSQI scale was (6.16±0.97) points in 308 PD patients, of which 208 cases (67.53%) were complicated with sleep disorders. The proportions of female, 61-75 years old, technical secondary school or below, disease course of 4 years and above, Hoehn-Yahr stage IV and unmarried status in the sleep disorder group were higher than those in the non-sleep disorder group (P<0.05). Compared with the non-sleep disorder group, the FMA score in the sleep disorder group was lower (P<0.05) while the BAI score and BDI-II score were higher (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that PSQI was negatively correlated with FMA (r=-0.489, P<0.05), and was positively correlated with BAI and BDI-II (r=0.476, 0.502, P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rate of sleep disorders in PD patients is high. PSQI is negatively correlated with FMA, and is positively correlated with BAI and BDI-II.

Objective:
To explore the clinical application of cone beam CT in the diagnosis of traumatic anterior teeth before orthodontic treatment in order to reduce the risk of orthodontic treatment failure due to adhesion.
Methods :
48 fixed orthodontic treatment cases with the history of anterior teeth trama were selected. The anterior teeth were examined by CBCT to exclude root and alveolar bone adhesions.
Results :
3 cases of root-alveolar bone adhesion were found, and the upper anterioa teeth of the remaining 45 cases were successfully moved by orthodontic treatment.
Conclusion
CBCT examination is recommended to check the periodontal ligament in patients of fixed orthodontic treatment with the history of anterior teeth trauma in order to exclude the root-alveolar bone adhesion cases.
