Oral diseases concern almost every individual and are a serious health risk to the popula-tion.The restorative treatment of tooth and jaw defects is an important means to achieve oral function and support the appearance of the contour.Based on the principle of"learning from the nature",Deng Xu-liang's group of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology has proposed a new concept of"microstructural biomimetic design and tissue adaptation of tooth/jaw materials"to address the worldwide problems of difficulty in treating dentine hypersensitivity,poor prognosis of restoration of tooth defects,and vertical bone augmentation of alveolar bone after tooth loss.The group has broken through the bottle-neck of multi-stage biomimetic technology from the design of microscopic features to the enhancement of macroscopic effects,and invented key technologies such as crystalline/amorphous multi-level assembly,ion-transportation blocking,and multi-physical properties of the micro-environment reconstruction,etc.The group also pioneered the cationic-hydrogel desensitizer,digital stump and core integrated restora-tions,and developed new crown and bridge restorative materials,gradient functionalisation guided tissue regeneration membrane,and electrically responsive alveolar bone augmentation restorative membranes,etc.These products have established new clinical strategies for tooth/jaw defect repair and achieved inno-vative results.In conclusion,the research results of our group have strongly supported the theoretical im-provement of stomatology,developed the technical system of oral hard tissue restoration,innovated the clinical treatment strategy,and led the progress of the stomatology industry.

Objective:
To observe and compare the clinical effects of different electroacupuncture waveforms on primary dysmenorrhea.
Methods:
This was a prospective, randomized, three-group, parallel-controlled trial. Participants with primary dysmenorrhea were randomly divided into dense-sparse wave, continuous wave, and discontinuous wave groups in a 1:1:1 ratio. Two lateral Ciliao (BL 32) points were used. All three groups started treatment 3–5 days before menstruation, once a day for six sessions per course of treatment, one course of treatment per menstrual cycle, and three menstrual cycles. The primary outcome measure was the proportion with an average visual analog scale (VAS) score reduction of ≥50% from baseline for dysmenorrhea in the third menstrual cycle during treatment. The secondary outcome measures included changes in dysmenorrhea VAS scores, Cox Menstrual Symptom Scale scores and the proportion of patients taking analgesic drugs.
Results:
The proportion of cases where the average VAS score for dysmenorrhea decreased by ≥50% from baseline in the third menstrual cycle was not statistically significant (P > .05). Precisely 30 min after acupuncture and regarding immediate analgesia on the most severe day of dysmenorrhea, there was a statistically significant difference in the dense-sparse wave group compared with the other two groups during the third menstrual cycle (P < .05). Additionally, there was a statistically significant difference between the dense-sparse wave and discontinuous wave groups 24 h after acupuncture (P < .05).
Conclusions
Waveform electroacupuncture can alleviate primary dysmenorrhea and its related symptoms in patients. The three groups showed similar results in terms of short- and long-term analgesic efficacy and a reduction in the number of patients taking analgesic drugs. Regarding achieving immediate analgesia, the dense-sparse wave group was slightly better than the other two groups.

Objective:To investigate the application value of manual anastomosis of gastro-duodenum in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 55 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy combined with gastrointestinal anastomosis in the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital from January 2020 to October 2022 were collected. There were 34 males and 21 females, aged 61(range, 29?75)years. Of 55 patients, 25 patients undergoing manual anastomosis of gastroduodenum were divided into the manual anastomosis group, 30 patients undergoing modified Delta anastomosis of gastroduodenum were divided into the modified Delta anastomosis group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using chi-square test or Fisher exact probility. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 55 patients underwent surgery successfully, without conversion to laparotomy. The distance from the superior margin of tumor to the upper margin, anastomosis time, number of bookings used were (48±4)mm, (22.6±2.3)minutes, 3.2±0.5 in the manual anastomosis group, versus (41±4)mm, (14.0±1.4)minutes, 5.2±0.4 in the modified Delta anastomosis group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=5.04, 16.38, ?17.13, P<0.05). The location of tumor (antrum, gastric angle) was 18, 7 in the manual anastomosis group, versus 29, 1 in the modified Delta anastomosis group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). (2) Postoperative complications. There was no patient undergoing anastomotic fistula in both of manual anastomosis group and modified Delta anastomosis group, and there was 1 patient undergoing anastomotic stenosis in the modified Delta anastomosis group. Conclusion:Compared with modi-fied Delta anastomosis of gastroduodenum,totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with manual anas-tomosis of gastroduodenum can remove more gastric tissue, and decrease the number of bookings used.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy and possible mechanism of Erzhi Tiangui prescription on repeated implantation failure (RIF) of kidney deficiency syndrome. MethodSeventy patients with RIF of kidney deficiency syndrome who underwent natural cycle frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in the Reproductive and Genetic Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled and randomly divided into a treatment group (35 cases) and a control group (35 cases). Patients in the treatment group took oral Erzhi Tiangui prescription from the third day of each menstrual cycle two months before the FET cycle and continued to take it until the day of transplantation from the third day of the menstrual cycle in the month of transplantation. Those in the control group did not accept traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In addition,10 patients who successfully achieved clinical pregnancy after the first natural cycle FET were screened from the reproductive medical record bank of this hospital and assigned to the normal group. Peripheral blood samples of patients in the three groups on the day of embryo transfer were collected from the specimen bank of the Reproductive and Genetic Center. Serum soluble programmed death molecule-1 (sPD-1),soluble programmed death molecule-ligand 1 (sPD-L1),transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β),interleukin-17 (IL-17), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The changes in kidney deficiency syndrome scores, the final biochemical pregnancy rates, clinical pregnancy rates, and embryo implantation rates of the treatment group and the control group before and after treatment were observed. ResultCompared with the normal group,the model group showed increased serum levels of sPD-1 and IL-17(r=0.347,P<0.05),decreased levels of IL-10 and TGF-β (P<0.01),and non-significant change in sPD-L1 level. Serum sPD-1 was positively correlated with IL-17 (P<0.05) and negatively correlated with IL-10(r=-0.521,P<0.01) and TGF-β(r=-0.457,P<0.01) in RIF patients with kidney deficiency syndrome. After TCM treatment,compared with the control group, the treatment group showed improved TCM syndrome score (P<0.05) and increased clinical pregnancy rate and embryo transfer rate(P<0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference in the biochemical pregnancy rate between the two groups. ConclusionAbnormal expression of sPD-1 in patients with RIF of kidney deficiency syndrome breaks the balance of T helper 17 (Th17)/regulatory T cell (Treg),which is not conducive to embryo implantation and pregnancy maintenance. Erzhi Tiangui prescription,a TCM for tonifying the kidney,can significantly improve the symptoms of kidney deficiency in patients with RIF of kidney deficiency syndrome,reduce the concentrations of sPD-1 and IL-17 in the peripheral serum,increase the levels of TGF-β and IL-10,regulate the peripheral Th17/Treg immune balance,and increase the implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate,which has a high clinical value.
