Objective:
To explore the prospective association between multidimensional sleep indicators and the risk of newlyonset dental caries, providing a reference for childrens oral healthrelated sleep intervention.
Methods:
In October 2021, 1 417 students in grades 1 to 4 (aged 6 to 11) from two elementary schools in Bengbu, Anhui Province, were selected by cluster sampling method. Surveys and followup visits were conducted at baseline (T1), November 2022 (T2), May 2023 (T3), and November 2023 (T4), respectively, including parental questionnaires, oral health and physical examination. Bedtime, sleep duration, sleep midpoint, social jet lag, weekend catchup sleep, and sleep habits were collected and calculated. A multifactorial Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the association between multidimensional sleep indicators and newlyonset caries in schoolaged children after 2 years.
Results:
The prevalence of dental caries in children was 65.1% at baseline, and the prevalence was 59.0% at the end of the 2year followup. Cox proportional risk regression model showed that for every 1point increase in the childrens bedtime resistance, nocturnal awakenings, parasomnias, and daytime sleepiness scores, the risk of newlyonset caries increased by 12% (HR=1.12, 95%CI=1.08-1.15), 22% (HR=1.22, 95%CI=1.15-1.29), 12% (HR=1.12, 95%CI=1.08-1.17), and 15% (HR=1.15, 95%CI=1.12-1.19), respectively; the risk of newlyonset caries increased by 23% for each 1 h increase in the length of weekend catchup sleep (HR=1.23, 95%CI=1.14 -1.33); compared with children who went to bed before 21:00 on school days, those who went to bed later than 22:00 had a 57% higher risk of newlyonset caries (HR=1.57, 95%CI=1.22-2.03). Compared to children who slept adequately (≥9 h/d), those with insufficient sleep had a 67% higher risk of new caries (HR=1.67, 95%CI=1.43-1.95) (P<0.01).
Conclusions
These findings suggest a significant association between sleep patterns/sleep disorders and the development of childhood dental caries. Incorporating sleep behavior optimization and sleep quality improvement into comprehensive caries prevention and oral health management protocols may represent a promising intervention strategy to enhance childrens oral health outcomes.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the quality of diagnosis and treatment guidelines and expert consensuses on childhood immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) published domestically and internationally, in order to provide reference for clinical practice and future guideline/expert consensus development and improvement. METHODS A systematic search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang data, VIP, CBM; additionally, supplementary searches were carried out on websites such as Medlive, the Chinese Medical Association’s official website, and National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence in the UK. The retrieval time ranged from the inception to September 2, 2024. Researchers who had undergone systematic training independently evaluated the methodology and report quality included in the guideline/consensus using the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ) and the Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT). RESULTS A total of 11 guidelines/consensuses were included. The average scores for the six domains of AGREE Ⅱ tool respectively were “range and purpose” ([ 66.67±17.98)% ], “participants” [58.33% (13.89%,73.61%)], “rigor” ([ 41.81±23.85)% ], “clarity”([ 69.57±19.35)%], “applicability” ([ 35.98±17.83)%], and “independence” [27.08% (0,75.00%)]; out of 11 articles, 9 had a recommendation level of B, 2 had a recommendation level of C, and there were no A-level articles. The average reporting rates of the 7 areas in the RIGHT tool were “basic information” ([ 72.35±12.95)% ], “background” ([ 54.55±15.40)%],“ evidence” ([ 36.36±24.81)%],“ recommended opinions” ([ 53.25±19.20)%],“ review and quality assurance” [0 (0, 25.00%)], “funding and conflict of interest statement and management” [12.50%(0,25.00%)], and other aspects [8.33%(0, 50.00%)]. In addition, there was no statistically significant difference in the AGREE Ⅱ and RIGHT scores between the guidelines and consensuses (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The overall quality of the guidelines and consensuses included in this study is not high, with a recommended level of B or C. It is recommended that clinical decision-making prioritize referring to the relatively high-quality guideline/consensus among them. The quality of evidence in the existing traditional Chinese medicine guidelines for children with ITP needs to be improved, and there is no integrated guideline/consensus for traditional Chinese and Western medicine. It is recommended to revise or write relevant guideline/consensus according to the requirements of AGREE Ⅱ and RIGHT in various fields to guide clinical practice.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

As the backbone force of China's social and economic construction, the health status of workers is closely related to the nation's productivity and social development. Currently, cancers have become one of the major diseases threatening the health of workers. However, there are still many shortcomings in the cancer screening services for the workers. To standardize cancer screening services for workers, ensure the quality of screening services, and improve the overall screening effectiveness, 19 institutions, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, have jointly formulated the Group Standard "Specification for service of cancer screening for workers (T/CHAA 023-2023)". This standard follows the principles of "legality, scientific rigor, advancement, and feasibility" and combines the frontier scientific advances in cancer screening. It clarifies the relevant requirements for service principles, service design, service delivery, service management, service evaluation, and improving worker cancer screening. Implementing this group standard will help connect the common screening needs of workers, employers, and cancer screening service providers, standardize the screening process, improve screening quality, and ultimately increase the early diagnosis rate and survival rate of cancer patients. Consequently, this group standard will help safeguard workers' health rights and interests, ensure the labor force resources, promote the comprehensive coordinated and sustainable development of society, and contribute to realizing the "Healthy China 2030" strategic policy.

To analyze the host factors affecting the drug resistance of Patients with Hp infection were consecutively recruited in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from November 2021 to October 2023. Endoscopic biopsy specimens were collected for pathological diagnosis, Hp strain culture and antimicrobial susceptibility test. Nineteen factors involving the basic information, lifestyle, dietary habits, and health status of the patients were collected through electronic medical records and questionnaires. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between the patients' factors and drug resistance to clarithromycin, levofloxacin, amoxicillin, furazolidone, tetracycline and metronidazole. A total of 115 patients (Hp strain 115) with Hp infection who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. There were 53 males (46.09%) and 62 females (53.91%), with an average age of (45.16±13.39) years. Gastroscopic pathology showed 86 cases (74.78%) of superficial gastritis, 6 cases (5.22%) of atrophic gastritis, 14 cases (12.17%) of intestinal metaplasia, 6 cases (5.22%) of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and 3 cases (2.61%) of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia/gastric cancer. The drug resistance rates of Hp strains to metronidazole, levofloxacin and clarithromycin were 91.30% (105/115), 53.04% (61/115) and 51.30% (59/115), respectively. Resistance to amoxicillin, furazolidone and tetracycline was not found. Dual drug resistance: levofloxacin + metronidazole dual resistance rate was 50.43% (58/115), clarithromycin + metronidazole dual resistance rate was 47.83% (55/115), clarithromycin + levofloxacin dual resistance rate was 36.52% (42/115). Multidrug resistance: clarithromycin + levofloxacin + metronidazole triple resistance rate was 34.78% (40/115). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that (metronidazole was not included in the multivariate analysis due to the absence of sensitive strains), previous Hp eradication history ( The drug resistance rate of Hp strains isolated from patients in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University to metronidazole, levofloxacin and clarithromycin were high, and dual drug resistance and multidrug resistance were prominent. Age, previous Hp eradication history and drinking water source may be associated with single or dual drug resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin. Comprehensive consideration, reasonable selection of antibiotics and individualized treatment should be taken into account during Hp eradication.

Licorice-gypsum (gancao-shigao, GC-SG) drug pair was used as the research object, using supramolecular chemistry to explore the scientific connotation of combining herbal medicine GC with insoluble mineral medicine SG in clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine. ① The Tyndall effect, microscopic morphology and particle size of the single and co-decocted of GC and SG were observed, the paste content and conductivity were determined, and the interaction between GC and SG was detected by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and infrared absorption spectroscopy (IR). ② Calcium chloride (CaCl2), a soluble calcium salt of equal gypsum quality, was used instead of SG with GC for co-decocting to explore the effect of calcium salt content on the water decocting, and the characteristics were combined with the Tyndall effect, microscopic morphology, paste content and conductivity. ITC and IR techniques were used to detect the interaction between the two, and the interaction between them was detected by ITC and IR. The zeta potential and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis) of GC-SG and GC-CaCl2 co-decoction were compared, and the inorganic and organic components in the co-decoction were detected by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results showed: ① Compared with the liquid phase of single decoction, GC-SG co-decoction had more obvious Tyndall effect, and showed uniform spherical nanoparticles under electron microscope. Physical characterization results such as paste content and conductivity showed that co-decoction promoted the dissolution of each other's components; ITC and IR results showed that there was strong interaction between GC and SG, which preliminatively indicated that GC and SG co-decoction promoted the formation of uniform and stable supramolecular system of traditional Chinese medicine. ② When soluble calcium salt was used to substitute insoluble SG with GC for co-decocting, a stronger but astigmatic light path appeared than single decocting solution, the zeta potential was reduced, and a large number of accumulated polymers were formed. The results of paste content and conductivity showed that the dissolution of the co-decocting component was reduced than the single decocting component. ITC, UV-vis and IR results showed that there was interaction between GC with Ca2+ and SG. The formation of polysink indicated that a large amount of soluble calcium salt would destroy the stability of supramolecular Chinese medicine. The results of ICP-OES and HPLC showed that the glycyrrhizic acid (GA) content of the former lower than the latter, which was related to the formation of a large number of polycondensates with the increase of Ca2+ concentration and the decrease of the dissolution of GA and other active ingredients. This study indicates that the compatibility of GC and SG can form a uniform and stable supramolecular system of traditional Chinese medicine. Calcium salt, the main component of SG, is taken as the starting point. Excessive soluble Ca2+ can promote the aggregation of active ingredients such as GA, so as to reveal the scientific connotation of the compatibility of GC and SG, an insoluble mineral medicine.
