We searched randomized controlled trials, meta-analysis and systematic reviews from OVID-EBM Reviews which included ACP Journal Club, The Cochrane Library, and MEDLINE(1991 to 2005 ) to evaluate clinical effectiveness of pit and fissure sealants for caries. The resultsshowed that pit and fissure sealants were recommended to prevent caries of the occlusal surface. The effectiveness varied between the two types of sealants, in general, flowable resin composite had a more satisfactory retention than glass ionomer composite. Acid etch was helpful for less microleakage and more satisfactory retention. Mechanical air-abrasion with acid etch may have the best border seal, However, we were not sure of the effectiveness of Er:YAG laser, technique of dental drill preparation and splicing. More high quality clinical trials on pit and fissure sealants are still needed.

Objective To investigate the effect of glenohumeral bone structure on anterior shoulder instability by three-dimensional CT reconstruction. Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with unilateral anterior shoulder dislocation (instability group) and 46 patients without shoulder joint disease (control group) admitted between February 2012 and January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. There was no significant difference in gender and side between the two groups (P>0.05). The patients were significantly younger in the instability group than in the control group (P<0.05). The glenoid joint morphological parameters such as glenoid height, glenoid width, ratio of glenoid height to width, glenoid inclination, the humeral containing angle, and glenoid version were measured on three-dimensional CT reconstruction of the glenoid. The differences of the above indexes between the two groups were compared, and the differences of the above indexes between the two groups were compared respectively in the male and the female. Random forest model was used to analyze the influencing factors of anterior shoulder instability. ResultsThe comparison between the two groups and the comparison between the two groups in the male and the female showed that the ratio of of the instability group glenoid height to width was larger than that of the control group, the glenoid width and humeral containing angle were smaller than those of the control group, and the differences were significant (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in glenoid height, glenoid inclination, and glenoid version between the two groups (P>0.05). The accuracy of the random forest model was 0.84. The results showed that the top four influencing factors of anterior shoulder instability were ratio of glenoid height to width, the humeral containing angle, age, and glenoid width. Conclusion Ratio of glenoid height to width and the humeral containing angle are important influencing factors of anterior shoulder instability.
Dementia is a neurodegenerative disease closely related to brain network dysfunction. In this study, we assessed the interdependence between brain regions in patients with early-stage dementia based on phase-lock values, and constructed a functional brain network, selecting network feature parameters for metrics based on complex network analysis methods. At the same time, the entropy information characterizing the EEG signals in time domain, frequency domain and time-frequency domain, as well as the nonlinear dynamics features such as Hjorth and Hurst indexes were extracted, respectively. Based on the statistical analysis, the feature parameters with significant differences between different conditions were screened to construct feature vectors, and finally multiple machine learning algorithms were used to realize the recognition of early categories of dementia patients. The results showed that the fusion of multiple features performed well in the categorization of Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal lobe dementia and healthy controls, especially in the identification of Alzheimer’s disease and healthy controls, the accuracy of β-band reached 98%, which showed its effectiveness. This study provides new ideas for the early diagnosis of dementia and computer-assisted diagnostic methods.
ObjectiveTo understand the burden of stroke disease and age-period-cohort effects in China from 1990 to 2021, and to provide scientific basis for formulating relevant prevention and treatment strategies. MethodsBased on GBD2021 data, the Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trend of incidence rate, mortality and DALYs rate of stroke, and the APC model was used to analyze the impact of age, period and birth cohort on the incidence and mortality of stroke. ResultsFrom 1990 to 2021, the standardized incidence rate, standardized mortality rate and standardized DALYs rate of stroke in China showed an overall downward trend, with AAPC of −0.37% (95%CI −0.45% to −0.29%), −1.79% (95%CI −1.99% to −1.59%), and −1.93% (95%CI −2.07% to −1.80%), respectively. The results of the age-period-cohort model showed that the incidence and mortality risks of stroke increased with age; The risk of female onset remained stable in the early stage but increased rapidly in the later stage, while the risk of male mortality showed a slight upward trend; The risk of onset and death generally decreased with the passage of the birth cohort. Hypertension had always been the primary risk factor for stroke, and metabolic factors such as high blood sugar had become the main factors affecting disease burden. ConclusionThe burden of stroke disease in China is still relatively heavy, and differentiated intervention measures should be developed for different age and gender groups based on controllable risk factors, especially focusing on the elderly and male population.
