BACKGROUND:In recent years,deep learning technologies have been increasingly applied in the field of oral medicine,enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of oral imaging analysis and promoting the rapid development of intelligent oral medicine. OBJECTIVE:To elaborate the current research status,advantages,and limitations of deep learning based on oral imaging in the diagnosis and treatment decision-making of oral diseases,as well as future prospects,exploring new directions for the transformation of oral medicine under the backdrop of deep learning technology. METHODS:PubMed was searched for literature related to deep learning in oral medical imaging published from January 2017 to January 2024 with the search terms"deep learning,artificial intelligence,stomatology,oral medical imaging."According to the inclusion criteria,80 papers were finally included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Classic deep learning models include artificial neural networks,convolutional neural networks,recurrent neural networks,and generative adversarial networks.Scholars have used these models in competitive or cooperative forms to achieve more efficient interpretation of oral medical images.(2)In the field of oral medicine,the diagnosis of diseases and the formulation of treatment plans largely depend on the interpretation of medical imaging data.Deep learning technology,with its strong image processing capabilities,aids in the diagnosis of diseases such as dental caries,periapical periodontitis,vertical root fractures,periodontal disease,and jaw cysts,as well as preoperative assessments for procedures such as third molar extraction and cervical lymph node dissection,helping clinicians improve the accuracy and efficiency of decision-making.(3)Although deep learning is promising as an important auxiliary tool for the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases,it still has certain limitations in model technology,safety ethics,and legal regulation.Future research should focus on demonstrating the scalability,robustness,and clinical practicality of deep learning,and finding the best way to integrate automated deep learning decision support systems into routine clinical workflows.

Objective:This study aims to explore the prevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in patients and the screening value of serological indicators for HEV infection patients.Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on 97 440 cases of anti-HEV IgM and IgG simultaneously tested in two Beijing hospitals from January 1, 2018 to August 31, 2023. Among them, there were 61 005 males and 36 435 females, with an average age of 51.65±13.05 years old. According to the positivity of anti HEV specific antibodies, they were divided into anti-HEV IgM positive group (3 588 cases), anti-HEV IgG positive group (18 083 cases), and anti-HEV antibody negative group (78 892 cases). Results of HEV RNA, liver function, AFP, PIVKA-Ⅱ and PT were collected, and their basic clinical information were recorded. The prevalence of HEV infection in patients, as well as the relationship between the positivity of anti-HEV specific antibodies and the patient′s age group, HEV RNA, and clinical characteristics were analyzed.Results:Among 97 440 patients who tested anti-HEV IgM and IgG simultaneously, the positivity rate of anti-HEV IgM was 3.68% (3 588/97 440), and was 18.56% for anti-HEV IgG (18 083/97 440). The overall positivity rates of anti-HEV IgM in two Beijing hospitals from 2018 to 2023 were 2.51%, 2.53%, 3.02%, 4.59%, 5.72%, and 4.26% ( χ2=1 401.73, P<0.001), while the positivity rates of anti-HEV IgG were 12.56%, 12.32%, 12.85%, 22.65%, 27.42%, and 26.66% ( χ2=1 058.29, P<0.001). These rates showed a gradual increase until 2023 when a decline was observed. The positivity rates of anti-HEV IgM (2.28%, 3.60%, 4.47%) ( χ2=89.62, P<0.001) and IgG (4.71%, 17.86%, 25.94%) ( χ2=2 017.32, P<0.001) increased with age in patients who aged 1-30, >30-60, and over 60 years old. The age and ALB values of patients in the anti-HEV IgM positive group were lower than the IgG-positive group, while the proportion of males, TBIL, ALT, AFP and PT values were higher than the IgG-positive group, and the differences were statistically significance ( P<0.05). Furthermore, patients in both the anti-HEV IgM and IgG positive groups had higher age, male proportion, TBIL, ALT, AFP, PIVKA-Ⅱ, and PT values than the anti-HEV negative group. Additionally, both groups had lower ALB values than the anti-HEV negative group, all of which were statistically significant ( P<0.05). 2 162 HEV infected patients were grouped based on HEV RNA positivity. The proportion of anti-HEV IgM single positive, IgG single positive, IgM+IgG double positive, and antibody negative patients in the HEV RNA positive group were 5.42% (18/332), 3.62% (12/332), 90.36% (300/332), and 0.60% (2/332), respectively. Among them, the proportion of anti-HEV IgM+IgG double positive patients in the HEV RNA positive group was higher than that in the HEV RNA negative group ( χ2=302.87, P<0.001), while the proportion of anti-HEV IgG single positive ( χ2=174.36, P<0.001) and anti-HEV antibody negative patients ( χ2=59.28, P<0.001) were lower than that in the HEV RNA negative group, both of which were statistically significant ( P<0.001). In addition, the positive rates of HEV RNA in anti-HEV IgM positive, IgG positive, and antibody negative patients were 29.23% (318/1 088), 17.59% (312/1 774), and 0.65% (2/306), respectively. Conclusion:The HEV infection rate among patients declined in 2023. HEV infection is age-related, with older individuals being more susceptible. Abnormal liver function and jaundice were commonly observed during HEV infection. It is crucial to note that the absence of anti-HEV specific antibodies cannot rule out HEV infection; therefore, additional testing for HEV RNA and/or HEV Ag is necessary for accurate diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination on macrophage polarization and its mechanism of inhibiting colorectal cancer(CRC)cells proliferation and migration.METHODS THP-1 cells were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA)and interleukin-4(IL-4)to establish M2 macrophage polarization model.The experiment was divided into M0 group(PMA treatment),M2 group(PMA+IL-4 treatment),and M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination group(PMA+IL-4+Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination treatment).The effect of Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination freeze-dried powder on the viability of macrophage was detected by CCK-8 method.The expression of macrophage polarization markers,glu-taminase(GLS)mRNA and protein was detected by qPCR and Western blot.The levels of interleukin-10(IL-10),transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in cell supernatant were detected by ELISA.CCK-8 method and Tr-answell assays were used to detect the proliferation and migration of HCT116 cells intervened by the supernatant of macrophage culture treated with Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination,namely conditioned medium(CM).RESULTS Compared with the M0 group,the expression levels of IL-10,mannose receptor(CD206),arginase 1(ARG1),and GLS mRNA and protein in the M2 group were significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.001),the levels of IL-10 and TGF-β secreted by macrophages were significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.001);compared with the M2 group,the M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination group had significantly reduced IL-10,CD206,ARG1,and GLS mRNA and protein expression(P<0.05,P<0.01),the mRNA and protein levels of TNF-α and in-ducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)were significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001),the interleukin-1β(Interleukin-1β,IL-1β)mRNA expression significantly increased(P<0.01),and the contents of IL-10 and TGF-β in the cell supernatant sig-nificantly decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),while TNF-α content significantly increased(P<0.01).CCK-8 and Transwell results showed that compared with the M0-CM group,the M2-CM promoted the proliferation and migration of HCT116 cells(P<0.01,P<0.001),the M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou-CM group significantly inhibited HCT116 cell proliferation and reduced cell migration compared to the M2-CM group(P<0.01,P<0.001).CONCLUSION Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination can inhibit colorectal cancer cells proliferation and migration by regulating macrophage polarization,and its mechanism may be related to the changes in the expression of GLS,a key enzyme in glutamine metabolism.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

MethodHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） specific chromatogram of KXS was developed with YMC Hydrosphere C₁₈ column（4.6 mm×250 mm， 5 μm）， the mobile phase was acetonitrile（A）-0.2% formic acid aqueous solution（B） for gradient elution（0-15 min， 2%-20%A； 15-25 min， 20%-25%A； 25-30 min， 25%-30%A； 30-45 min， 30%-31%A； 45-50 min， 31%-44%A； 50-65 min， 44%-45%A； 65-73 min， 45%-75%A； 73-95 min， 75%-100%A； 95-105 min， 100%A； 105-105.1 min， 100%-2%A； 105.1-120 min， 2%A）， the detection wavelength was 320 nm. Ultra high performance liquid chromatography-linear ion trap-electrostatic field orbitrap mass spectrometry（UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS） was used to identify the chemical components of KXS with electrospray ionization（ESI）， negative ion mode and scanning range of m/z 50-2 000. TLC identification methods for Poria and Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma in KXS were established. ResultThere were 11 common peaks in the specific chromatogram of KXS， attributed to Polygalae Radix， Poria and Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma. Taking peak 9（α-asarone） as the reference peak， the relative standard deviations of the retention times of 15 batches of KXS samples were<0.2%. A total of 34 compounds were identified by UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS， including terpenoids， phenylpropanoids， oligosaccharides and ketones. The established TLC had good separation and was rapid， reliable， simple， feasible， suitable for the identification of Poria and Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma in KXS. ConclusionThe specific chromatogram and TLC of KXS are stable and reproducible. The material basis of KXS is basically clarified by MS， which can provide a reference for the development and quality control of KXS.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of illness uncertainty with anxiety and depression in perioperative patients with early gastric cancer.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 107 patients with early gastric cancer who were admitted in Department of Gastroenterology of a Class A tertiary hospital in Beijing from April 2020 to August 2021. The demographic data questionnaire was used for survey, and the psychological status of patients was evaluated with Mishel′s Uncertainties in Illness Scales (MUIS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS). Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation of disease uncertainty with anxiety and depression in patients with early gastric cancer.Results:The illness uncertainty in patients with early gastric cancer was at a moderate level (93.2±14.0). The total scores on the SAS and SDS were (46.5±9.7) and (47.7±10.2), respectively. And the incidence rate of anxiety and depression was 34.6% (37/107) and 31.8% (34/107) respectively. The illness uncertainty of patients with early gastric cancer was positively correlated with anxiety and depression ( r=0.40,0.31,all P<0.05). Conclusion:Some patients with early gastric cancer have illness uncertainty, anxiety and depression, and the illness uncertainty is related to anxiety and depression.

Objective:To comparative analyze mammographic and clinicopathological findings of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and DCIS with microinvasion (DCISM), and to investigate the predictive factors for DCISM.Methods:A total of 626 patients with DCISM and DCIS confirmed by surgery and pathology in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2016 to July 2020 were collected and underwent preoperative mammography. The X-ray findings of DCISM and DCIS patients were classified and diagnosed according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) criteria. The differences in clinicopathological and radiographic findings between DCISM and DCIS patients were analyzed using χ 2 test or Fisher exact test. The risk factors of DCISM were evaluated by using univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression analysis. Results:Among the 626 cases, 171 were diagnosed as DCISM, 455 were diagnosed as DCIS. Large diameter (≥2.7 cm), high nuclear grade, comedo type, axillary lymph node metastasis, high Ki67 proliferation index, negativity of estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor were found to be predictors of DCISM in the univariate analysis (all P<0.05). And large diameter (≥2.7 cm)(OR 2.229,95% CI 1.505-3.301, P<0.001), high nuclear grade(OR 1.711,95%CI 1.018-2.875, P=0.043) and axillary lymph node metastasis(OR 4.140,95% CI 1.342-12.773, P=0.013) were found to be independent predictors of DCISM in the multivariate analysis (all P<0.05). Mammographically, the lesion types, the presence and distribution of calcification were statistically significant between DCIS and DCISM patients (χ 2=17.42, 9.65, 9.10, P<0.05). Up to 17.6% (80/455) of DCIS were occult leisions, and DCISM showed more lesions with calcification in mass, asymmetry, and architectural distortion (49.1%, 84/171). Grouped calcifications were usually associated with DCIS (41.5%, 120/289), while regional calcification were commonly found in DCISM (35.9%, 47/131). Conclusions:Lesions with calcification and regional calcification were more likely associated with DCISM on mammography. Large diameter (≥2.7 cm), high nuclear grade and axillary lymph node metastasis were found to be independent predictors of DCISM.

Objective:To compare the sedative and anti-anxiety effects of levo-tetrahydropalmatine (L-THP) and diazepam on conditioned fear model rats.Methods:According to the random number table method, 32 adult male rats were divided into blank group, model group, diazepam group and L-THP group(with 8 rats in each group). The conditioned fear model was reproduced by the plantar electric shock method. Four days after the modeling, the rats in diazepam group and L-THP group were given diazepam (3.6 mg/kg) and L-THP (25 mg/kg) were respectively gavaged once a day for 10 days, the rats in blank group and model group were given the same volume of saline. After the administration, the elevated plus maze test and the open field test were used to measure the anxiety behavior of the rats, and the sleep energy monitoring system was used to detect changes in sleep and energy-related indicators. SPSS 23.0 and Graphpad Prism 7.0 softwares were used for data analysis, multiple samples between groups were compared by one-way ANOVA, and LSD test was used for pairwise comparison.Results:The results of the elevated plus maze experiment showed that compared with the model group, the percentage of open-arm entry times ((11.27±8.78)%, (30.11±14.59)%, P<0.05) and the percentage of open-arm residence time ((1.94±1.48)%, (17.53±8.21)%, P<0.05) in diazepam group were all significantly increased. Compared with the model group, the open arm residence time, the percentage of open arm residence time and the percentage of open arm entry times in L-THP group showed an upward trend, but there was no statistical significance (all P>0.05). The results of the open field experiment showed that compared with the model group, the time of entering the central grid ((2.99±1.83) s, (6.94±3.52) s, P<0.05) and the time of entering the peripheral field ((297.01±1.83) s, (293.30±3.52) s, P<0.05) in diazepam group both increased. Compared with the model group, there was no significant difference in the changes of various indexes in L-THP group (all P>0.05). The results of locomotor activities showed that the autonomic activity times of model group in nighttime was significantly lower than that of blank group((758.79±375.37)times/h, (1 101.93±525.96)times/h, P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the number of autonomous activities of rats in L-THP group in daytime ((820.57±364.60) times/min, (502.40±228.54)times/min, P<0.05) decreased, and the number of autonomous activities in the nighttime ((758.79±375.37) times/min, (1 146.85±309.69)times/min, P<0.05) increased, but there was no significant change in the number of autonomous activities in the whole day. Correlation analysis of energy metabolism related indexes and sleep time of rats in each group were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the daytime sleep time were negatively correlated with heat value ( r=-0.335, P<0.05), and the night sleep time was positively correlated with daytime heat value ( r=0.352, P<0.05). Conclusion:L-tetrahydropalmatine has no significant anti-anxiety effect in the concentration range used in this study, but its sedative and improving sleep activity rhythm are better than diazepam.
