Purpose: To explore the differential diagnosis of salivary gland tumors by multimodal ultrasound and to establish a preliminary scoring system by assigning meaningful parameters.
Methods: Seventy-seven tumors from 69 patients with salivary gland tumors were examined by two-dimensional gray-scale ultrasound, color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI), superb microvascular imaging(SMI), real time tissue elastography(RTE) and acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI). Different scoring schemes were obtained for the assignment and combination of meaningful parameters.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the ultrasound characteristics of leukoplakia in various non-chewing oral tissues, providing insights for clinicians on diagnosis and treatment methods.
- Eighteen patients with diagnosed oral leukoplakia were examined using intra-oral ultrasound to assess lesion features like thickness, keratinization, and blood flow before biopsies were conducted.
- Results indicated distinct sonographic patterns in leukoplakia, showing increased echo intensity and thickened epithelial layers, with significant differences noted in echo characteristics across different oral mucosa locations.

Purpose: The present study was aimed to clinically evaluate transitional treatment of pulpitis during pregnancy.
Methods: Sixty pregnant women with pulpitis were divided into the first, second and third trimester. They were anesthetized locally using STA system combined with psychological intervention during treatment.
Background: Abnormal expression of early growth response gene 1 (Egr-1) and β-catenin may play a crucial role in the development and progression of human cancer. However, little is known about the expression and underlying molecular mechanisms in which Egr-1 and β-catenin are involved in the development and progression of gastric cancer.
Aims: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the potential relationship between Egr-1 and β-catenin expression in gastric cancer, which contributes to finding new molecular carcinogenesis as a potential therapeutic target for gastric cancer.
