Objective: To retrospectively analyze the epidemiological characteristics of supernumerary teeth in patients aged 4-18 years old and the influencing factors on the selection of anesthesia methods, and to provide a reference for the selection of anesthesia plans for children and adolescents with supernumerary teeth. Methods: This study is a retrospective study approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee. Based on clinical electronic medical record system and cone beam CT (CBCT) data, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 2 210 patients 4-18 years of age who underwent supernumerary tooth extraction at the School of Stomatology, Fourth Military Medical University from August 2019 to July 2021. Inclusion criteria: ① Age 4-18 years old; and ② The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classifies anesthesia into grades I-II; and ③ Have complete oral and anesthesia case records and relevant imaging data. Exclusion criteria: ① Incomplete medical records or unclear imaging data; and ② Patients with ASA grade II or above. Patients’ gender and age, the number of supernumerary teeth, arch, location, orientation, eruption status, reason for appointment, anxiety level, degree of cooperation, anesthesia method, and other relevant information were collected and statistically analyzed. Results: A total of 1 865 eligible patients were included, with an average age of (8.9±3.2) years old. There were more male patients (71.37%, 1 331 cases) than female patients (28.63%, 534 cases) (P < 0.001), with a gender ratio of 2.49:1. The majority of supernumerary teeth were single (75.97%, 1 417/1 865), primarily located in the maxilla (97.2%, 1 812/1 865) and the anterior dental region (94.2%, 1 757/1 865), and in a centric position (77.3%, 1 442/1 865). The majority of patients with erupted supernumerary teeth were active in seeking treatment (97.67%, 335/343). Patients with supernumerary teeth located in the maxilla and mandible bones, as well as in the nasal floor, were mainly referred to the department for diagnosis, accounting for 94.38%(1 361/1 442) and 90.00% (72/80) (χ2=1 363.24, P < 0.001), respectively. Regarding anesthesia methods, the largest proportion of patients received nitrous oxide sedation-assisted local anesthesia or nerve block anesthesia, accounting for 38.07% (710/1 865), followed by local anesthesia, accounting for 35.23% (657/1 865). The proportion of patients receiving midazolam intravenous sedation with local anesthesia or nerve block anesthesia and general anesthesia was relatively small, accounting for 20.86% (389/1 865) and 5.84% (109/1 865). Patients 13-18 years of age with supernumerary teeth in the mandibular and posterior regions and without anxiety had the highest proportion of local anesthesia use (P < 0.001). In contrast, patients who had supernumerary teeth located at the base of the nose (50%), severe anxiety (94.12%), and poor cooperation (98.18%) had the highest proportion of general anesthesia use (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference (P = 0.35) in the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications after the extraction of supernumerary teeth. However, the proportion of anesthesia-related complications, such as dizziness, coughing, and respiratory depression, occurring in patients who received general anesthesia was higher than local anesthesia, accounting for 3.81% (P = 0.006). Conclusion There is a gender difference in the incidence of supernumerary teeth in patients 4-18 years of age, with a higher prevalence in males. The majority of supernumerary teeth are single and located in the maxillary anterior region, predominantly in a centric position. Patients whose teeth had erupted were more likely to seek medical treatment voluntarily, while patients with supernumerary teeth located in the maxilla and mandible bones, as well as in the nasal floor were more likely to be referred to the department. Patients with high levels of anxiety, poor cooperation, young age, multiple teeth, and high surgical difficulty were more inclined to choose general anesthesia.

Panax notoginseng saponins(PNSs)as the extracted bioactive components of Panax notoginseng,have a long history of application in prevention of thrombosis.PNSs down-regulate the expression of inflammatory factors,promoting endothelial cell growth,up-regulating the expression of anticoagulants and vasodilators,and regulating endothelial cell function;With multiple targets at which PNSs inhibit platelet adhesion,release,and aggregation;PNSs maintain the activity of the fibrinolytic system by regulating the dynamic balance of tissue type plasminogen activators and inhibitors;PNSs reduce blood viscosity,improve red blood cell indicators,and inhibit thrombosis through multiple pathways.

The incidence and mortality of venous thromboembolism (VTE) are high in critically ill patients, and there is still a risk of VTE and bleeding after the use of fixed-dose low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for prophylaxis. The level of anti-factor Ⅹa is not up to standard after LMWH prophylaxis in patients with surgery or trauma. The condition of critically ill patients is complicated, and the proportion of patients with low antithrombin Ⅲ is high, which can affect the prophylactic efficacy of LMWH and contribute to VTE occurrence. There is currently no consensus on whether adjusting LMWH dose according to anti-factor Ⅹa levels can reduce VTE occurrence in critically ill patients. High-quality multicenter randomized controlled studies are needed in the future to establish new approaches for precise prevention of VTE in critically ill patients.

Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a serious clinical condition with high fatality rate. The elderly patients account for a large proportion of community-acquired BSI cases, and general practitioners should play an important role in early identification and diagnosis of community elderly BSI patients. This article reviews the status quo of diagnosis of community-acquired BSI in the elderly. Based on clinical manifestations, accessible biomarkers and blood cultures, general practitioners can make an early diagnosis and timely transfer the patients to reduce the fatality rate of community-acquired BSI.

Objective:To study the effects of Zuogui Pills on rats with kidney-yin deficiency syndrome of premature ovarian insufficiency.Methods:Totally 40 SD female unmated rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group, Zuogui Pills group and Bujiale group, with 10 rats in each group. Except for blank group, rats in other groups were subcutaneously injected with ZP3 and gavaged with levothyroxine sodium to induce kidney-yin deficiency syndrome model of premature ovarian insufficiency. At the same time of modeling, Zuogui Pills group and Bujiale group received corresponding drugs for gavage, and the other groups received corresponding solvent for gavage, once a day, for consecutive 21 days. On day 0, 7, 14 and 21, ear temperature and body weight of rats were measured, and the ovarian index, uterus index and thyroid index were calculated. Serum levels of adenosine cyclic phosphate (cAMP), cyclic guanosine phosphate (cGMP), Cortisol, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol (E 2) were detected by ELISA. Pathological changes of ovary was observed with HE staining. Results:On day 14 and 21, compared with model group, the body weight of rats in Zuogui Pills group increased ( P<0.05), and the ear temperature decreased ( P<0.05); compared with model group, the ovarian index, uterine index and thyroid index of rats in Zuogui Pills group decreased ( P<0.05), the levels of serum cAMP/cGMP, cortisol, FSH and LH decreased ( P<0.05), and the level of E 2 increased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Zuogui Pills have certain improvement effect on rats with kidney-yin deficiency syndrome induced by levothyroxine sodium tablets combined with ZP3.

Objective : To investigate the efficacy of a holistic approach for postoperative pain management in children receiving dental treatment under general anesthesia in day-surgery operating room. Methods: A total of 120 children, aged 3-7 years, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, with ≥ 10 treated teeth, receiving comprehensive dental treatment under general anesthesia from January 2020 to August 2020 were enrolled in this trial and randomly allocated into the holistic approach group (group H, n=60) and including preemptive analgesia, instructions to parents for pain management and web-based assessment system (assessment pain by scanning the quick response code 4, 6, and 24 hours postoperatively) and the control group (group C, n=60) only scanning the quick response code. Pain, face, legs, activity, cry and consolability (FLACC) scale was used to assess the level of pain 2 h postoperatively and the parents postoperative pain measure (PPPM) was used to assess the level of pain 4, 6, and 24 h postoperatively in two groups. Results: The FLACC scores of group H 2 h postoperatively were significantly lower than group C (P <0.05). The incidences of significant pain (PPPM scores ≥ 6) 4, 6 and 24 h postoperatively in group H were lower than group C (P <0.05). Altogether, 91.7% of parents in group H and 71.6% in group C assessed the level of pain of children over time. The compliance rate of parents in group H was significantly higher than group C (P <0.05). Conclusion The holistic approach had a positive effect on reducing postoperative pain for children receiving dental treatment under general anesthesia in the day-surgery operating room.

Objective:To study the performance of immune reconstitution in patients with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell immunotherapy bridging allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods:A total of 61 patients with acute B lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL) who received CAR-T cell bridging allo-HSCT in Beijing Lu Daopei Hospital from August 2018 to December 2021 were enrolled, and the clinical medical records of the above patients were retrospectively analyzed. The average age was 14 (7, 30) years old, including 39 males and 22 females. 32 patients were treated with CAR-T cell immunotherapy(CAR-T Group) and 29 didn't with CAR-T cell immunotherapy(non-CAR-T group). The follow-up period was 561 (235,784) days. Multicolor flow cytometry was used to detect the peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets, i.e. total lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells, B lymphocytes, NK cells, and Treg cell counts before transplantation and 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 10, and 12 months after transplantation, to evaluate the immune reconstitution performance post allo-HSCT.Results:Serum globulin before transplantation: The IgA level in the CAR-T group was 0.18 (0.06, 0.49) g/L, which was lower than that of 1.03 (0.63, 1.56) g/L in the non-CAR-T group ( U=103.5, P<0.001). The IgG level in the CAR-T group was 5.54 (4.04, 7.09) g/L, lower than that of 6.78 (5.27, 9.26) g/L in the non-CAR-T group, ( U=1 298.5, P=0.017), and the IgM level in the CAR-T group was 0.18 (0.05, 0.30) g/L, lower than that of 0.40 (0.26, 0.71) g/L in the non-CAR-T group ( U=166.0, P<0.001). In the CAR-T group before transplantation, the absolute count of total lymphocyte in peripheral blood was 833.00 (335.00, 1 727.50) /μl, lower than that of 1 052.00 (545.75, 1 812.50) /μl in the non-CAR-T group ( U=404.0, P<0.001). The absolute count of T lymphocyte in the CAR-T group before transplantation was 686.00 (233.00, 1 307.00)/μl, lower than that of 860.00 (391.00, 1 419.75) /μl in the non-CAR-T group ( U=406.0, P<0.001). The absolute count of helper T lymphocytes in the CAR-T group was 146.00 (40.50, 327.50) /μl, lower than that of 162.50 (66.00, 384.75) /μl in the non-CAR-T group ( U=494.0, P=0.002). The absolute count of cytotoxic T lymphocytes in the CAR-T group was 343.00 (56.50, 924.00) /μl, lower than that of 478.00 (143.50, 992.25) /μl in the non-CAR-T group ( U=483.5, P=0.001). The absolute count of B lymphocytes in CAR-T group was 22.00 (6.00, 186.00) /μl, lower than that of 33.00 (8.00, 220.00) /μl in the non-CAR-T group ( U=498.0, P=0.002). And when two groups of patients were monitored after transplantation, there was no statistical difference in absolute cell counts of each immune cell subpopulation( P>0.05). Comparing the clinical features of the two groups, the pre-transplant history of the CAR-T group was 981.00 (368.50, 1 514.75) d, longer than that of 323.00 (167.50, 450.50) d in the non-CAR-T group ( U=263.0, P=0.004). The dose of rabbit anti-human thymic immunoglobulin (ATG) in the pretreatment protocol of patients in the CAR-T group was 5.00 (5.00, 7.50) mg/Kg, lower than that of 7.00 (5.00, 7.50) mg/kg in the non-CAR-T group ( U=288.5, P=0.018). The infusion dose of CD34 +cells in the CAR-T group was 5.91 (4.23, 6.02) ×10 6/kg, higher than that of 4.51 (4.00, 5.93)×10 6/kg in the non-CAR-T group ( U=291.0, P=0.012). The duration of the application of cyclosporine after transplantation in the CAR-T group was 167.00 (119.25, 299.50) d, which was shorter than that of 197.00 (102.50, 450.50) d in the non-CAR-T group ( U=421.0, P=0.001). Conclusions:For patients in CAR-T group with low immune function before transplantation, it may be possible to make them comparable to non-CAR-T group in immune reconstitution state by reducing the dose of pretreatment ATG, increasing the counts of CD34 + cells infusion in the graft, and discontinuing cyclosporine as soon as possible after transplantation.

Objective:The purpose of this study is to establish the trajectory of targeted grafting for facial fat compartment based on anatomical research, and then bring it to clinical practice.Methods:The boundary of fat compartment and the relationship of adjacent vessel and nerve were clarified through autopsy. The recommended injection points and trajectory for targeted fat grafting were established on the anatomical findings. Retrospective clinical data of facial rejuvenation of 46 patients through targeted fat grafting were collected from June 2017 to June 2019 in Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital. The result of 3D scanning were analyzed to evaluate the survival rate of fat grafts.Results:There were subcutaneous superficial fat compartments in the frontal region, and there were both deep and superficial fat compartments in the temporal and middle face. According to the anatomical characteristics, a targeted fat grafting technique was established with the frontal hairline and the oral commissure corner mucosa as the entry points. In the clinical study, 46 patients were evaluated by 3D scanning 6 months after the last fat grafting. The amount of fat grafts in the temporal region was (17.84±8.47) ml and (11.2±2.44) ml was left after operation, and the survival rate was 63%. The amount of fat grafts in mid-face was (26.81±10.36) ml and (16.09±4.48) ml was left after operation, and the survival rate was 60%. Overall satisfaction rate of patients was 93% (43/46).Conclusions:Compartment-based targeted fat grafting is an accurate injection method, which meets the requirement of physiological augmentation. The trajectory of targeted fat grafting will further improve the efficacy and safety of injection.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of gallstone-like echo in fetal gallbladder and its changes with gestational age, and following up its prognosis as well as the relationship with bilirubin after birth so as to provide more information for prenatal consultation about neonatal jaundice related diseases. Methods: A total of 82 fetuses from January 2014 to December 2017 at Women′s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, who had prenatal ultrasound diagnosis and follow-up results with gallstone-like echo in fetal gallbladder, were included in this study. The characteristics of gallstone-like echo in fetal gallbladder were summarized, its change with gestational age, and its association with the status of pregnant mother were analyzed. Bilirubin and the prognosis of the gallstone-like echo were followed up after birth. Results: Four different types of prenatal ultrasound characteristics of gallstone-like echo in fetal gallbladder were observed: sediment-like type(n=13), full of hyperechoic type (n=19), multiple hyperechoic type (n=42), and single or scattered hyperechoic type(n=8). Of the total 82 cases, 2 fetus were induced abortion. In the 80 normal-born fetuses, the number of gallstone-like echo were reduced in 9 cases during pregnancy, the gallstone-like echo disappeared in uterus in 8 cases. During the follow up, the gallstone-like echoes disappeared at 3 days, 42 days, 1 year and 2 years after birth in the rest 72 cases, respectively. In the 80 fetuses, 20 cases of neonates with hyperbilirubinemia after birth (4 males and 16 females) including 4 cases of ABO hemolytic, 2 cases of neonatal sepsis.No abnormalities occurred in the remaining 60 neonates during the follow-up period. Conclusions Gallstone-like echo in fetus is a self-limiting disease that occurs in late pregnancy.Some neonates develop hyperbilirubinemia after birth with good prognosis. After phototherapy, the jaundice index decreased to the normal standard and the serum bilirubin content decreased.
