Retrieving keyframes most relevant to text from small intestine videos with given labels can efficiently and accurately locate pathological regions. However, training directly on raw video data is extremely slow, while learning visual representations from image-text datasets leads to computational inconsistency. To tackle this challenge, a small bowel video keyframe retrieval based on multi-modal contrastive learning (KRCL) is proposed. This framework fully utilizes textual information from video category labels to learn video features closely related to text, while modeling temporal information within a pretrained image-text model. It transfers knowledge learned from image-text multimodal models to the video domain, enabling interaction among medical videos, images, and text data. Experimental results on the hyper-spectral and Kvasir dataset for gastrointestinal disease detection (Hyper-Kvasir) and the Microsoft Research video-to-text (MSR-VTT) retrieval dataset demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of KRCL, with the proposed method achieving state-of-the-art performance across nearly all evaluation metrics.

Insufficient alveolar bone thickness increases the risk of periodontal dehiscence and fenestration, especially in orthodontic tooth movement. Abaloparatide (ABL), a synthetic analog of human PTHrP (1-34) and a clinical medication for treating osteoporosis, has recently demonstrated its potential in enhancing craniofacial bone formation. Herein, we show that intraoral submucosal injection of ABL, when combined with mechanical force, promotes in situ alveolar bone thickening. The newly formed bone is primarily located outside the original compact bone, implying its origin from the periosteum. RNA sequencing of the alveolar bone tissue revealed that the focal adhesion (FA) pathway potentially mediates this bioprocess. Local injection of ABL alone enhances cell proliferation, collagen synthesis, and phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in the alveolar periosteum; when ABL is combined with mechanical force, the FAK expression is upregulated, in line with the accomplishment of the ossification. In vitro, ABL enhances proliferation, migration, and FAK phosphorylation in periosteal stem cells. Furthermore, the pro-osteogenic effects of ABL on alveolar bone are entirely blocked when FAK activity is inhibited by a specific inhibitor. In summary, abaloparatide combined with mechanical force promotes alveolar bone formation via FAK-mediated periosteal osteogenesis. Thus, we have introduced a promising therapeutic approach for drug-induced in situ alveolar bone augmentation, which may prevent or repair the detrimental periodontal dehiscence, holding significant potential in dentistry.

Diabetes has long been considered a risk factor in implant therapy and impaired wound healing in soft and hard oral tissues. Magnesium has been proved to promote bone healing under normal conditions. Here, we elucidate the mechanism by which Mg2+ promotes angiogenesis and osseointegration in diabetic status. We generated a diabetic mice model and demonstrated the alveolar bone healing was compromised, with significantly decreased angiogenesis. We then developed Mg-coating implants with hydrothermal synthesis. These implants successfully improved the vascularization and osseointegration in diabetic status. Mechanically, Mg2+ promoted the degradation of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and the nucleation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) by up-regulating the expression of sestrin 2 (SESN2) in endothelial cells, thus reducing the elevated levels of oxidative stress in mitochondria and relieving endothelial cell dysfunction under hyperglycemia. Altogether, our data suggested that Mg2+ promoted angiogenesis and osseointegration in diabetic mice by regulating endothelial mitochondrial metabolism.

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a refractory, chronic non-articular rheumatic disease characterized by widespread pain throughout the body, for which there are no satisfactory therapeutic drugs or options. There are rich Chinese medical therapies, and some non-drug therapies, such as acupuncture, Tai Chi, and Ba-Duan-Jin, have shown satisfactory efficacy and safety and definite advantages of simultaneously adjusting mind and body. FMS is taken as a disease responding specifically to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2018. In order to clarify the research progress in FMS and the clinical advantages of TCM/integrated Chinese and Western medicine, the China Academy of Chinese Medicine organized a seminar for nearly 20 experts in Chinese and Western medicine, including rheumatology, psychology, acupuncture and moxibustion, and encephalopathy, with the topic of difficulties in clinical diagnosis and treatment of FMS and advantages of TCM and Western medicine. The recommendations were reached on the difficulties in early diagnosis and solutions of FMS, mitigation of common non-specific symptoms, preferential analgesic therapy, TCM pathogenesis and treatment advantages, and direction of treatment with integrated Chinese and Western medicine. FMS is currently facing the triple dilemma of low early correct diagnosis, poor patient participation, and unsatisfactory benefit from pure Western medicine treatment. To solve the above problems, this paper suggests that rheumatologists should serve as the main diagnostic force of this disease, and they should improve patient participation in treatment decision-making, implement exercise therapy, and fully utilize the holistic and multidimensional features of TCM, which is effective in alleviating pain, improving mood, and decreasing adverse events. In addition, it is suggested that FMS treatment should rely on both TCM and Western medicine and adopt multidisciplinary joint treatment, which is expected to improve the standard of diagnosis and treatment of FMS in China.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of suicidal behavior in children and provide a reference for further developing strategies for preventing childhood suicide.Methods:The medical records of children hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit(PICU)at Beijing Children's Hospital for suicidal behavior in the electronic medical record system from January 1,2018,to December 31,2022 were retrospectively selected.Clinical data of children with suicidal behavior were collected.Results:A total of 3 249 patients were admitted to the PICU,including 62 suicide patients.There were 20(32.3%) males,and 42(67.7%) females,with a male-to-female ratio of 1:2.1.The average age was (13.1 ± 1.5) years old,with a minimum age of 7.9 years and a maximum age of 15.7 years.There were 17 (27.4%) children with previously diagnosed mental illnesses.Notably 58.1% children had triggering factors for suicidal behavior.Analysis of suicide methods,53(85.5%) cases were intentional drug ingestion,six(9.7%) cases were jumping from height,and three(4.8%) cases were hanging.Additionally 26.4% cases of poisoning were male,while 66.7% of cases of jumping from height and hanging were male.There was a statistical difference in suicide methods between genders (χ 2=5.704, P=0.025).The poisoning ingestions were classified as 20(37.7%) cases of toxins; 14(26.4%) cases of antidepressants; 10(18.9%) cases of over-the-counter drugs; five(9.4%) cases of other prescription drugs; three(5.7%) cases of sedative drugs; one(1.9%) case of daily chemical.Sources of ingestions: 18(34.0%) cases were purchased personally (pharmacies or online shopping); 16(30.2%) cases were storing medicines at home; 13(24.5%) cases were daily taking antidepressants.Compared with non-poisoning patients,poisoning patients had a significantly shorter PICU duration (Z=-2.884, P=0.004).The total mortality rate of children admitted to PICU due to suicide was 16.1%(10/62).There was a statistical difference in the mortality rate among different suicide methods (χ 2=7.883, P=0.019). Conclusion:School aged children and boys are more likely to choose impulsive and more harmful suicide behaviors such as jumping from heights and hanging,and adolescent girls are more likely to choose intentional poisoning as their suicide method.Attention should be paid to the suicide risk of different age and gender groups.Intentional drug ingestion is the main method of suicide in children.Herbicide poisoning and antidepressant drug poisoning are the leading causes of suicide death.The death risk of suicidal behavior in children may be reduced by controlling the way of getting pesticides (especially herbicides) and obtaining maximum doses of antidepressants.
