Objective:To evaluate the improvement of nasal appearance, symptoms and psychological burden in patients with secondary cleft rhinoplasty by using retrospective research methods, through preoperative and postoperative questionnaires.Methods:Twenty-three cleft lip patients that underwent surgery in our unit since April 2016 were enrolled in this study. The self-designed questionnaire was used to explore the changes of patients before and after the operation. The questionnaire star was utilized to collect the data, and after the data was sorted and summarized, SPSS 20.0 was used for analysis and statistics.Results:The average follow-up time was 28.9 months. The total score of ROE satisfaction before surgery was 46.74 points, while after surgery it reached 63.04 points ( t=4.10, P<0.01); the self-scores of nasal shape were significantly improved after surgery; but there was no significant change in the ventilation function in the VAS scale before and after the operation; the nasal symptoms and psychological status in the SNOT-22 questionnaire, such as, nasal congestion, embarrassment, depression, restlessness and irritability, were significantly improved ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Our semi-autonomous designed questionnaire can be used to effectively evaluate the satisfaction, nasal shape, and symptoms of patients with nasal deformity secondary to cleft lip. Data analysis shows that our secondary cleft lip rhinoplasty for cleft lip and palate can improve patients′ satisfaction after the repair, as well as nose shape and function, at the same time the psychological burden caused by it.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and surgical treatment of cerebral amyloid angiopathy hemorrhage (CAAH) caused by cerebral vascular amyloidosis.Methods The clinical data,radiological diagnoses,pathology results and treatment efficacies of 76 patients with CAAH,admitted to and performed surgery in our hospital from August 2010 to September 2015,were retrospectively analyzed.Results The first preoperative CT indicated that prompt hematomas were located in the cerebral hemisphere brain cortex,forming lobulated or irregular shape;2 or more lesions of recurrent hemorrhage were noted in 14 (18.4％);34 (44.7％) were with subarachnoid hemorrhage,16 (21.1％) were with intraventricular hemorrhage.Histopathological examination supported the diagnosis.Sixteen patients (21.1％) underwent second operation during hospitalization due to large amount of bleeding.During hospitalization,18 (23.7％) died,and 20 (26.3％) had long-term coma.During the follow-up period,23 patients (30.3％) had recurrent intracranial hemorrhage,of which,6 patients (7.9％) underwent surgical treatment,and 17 patients (22.4％) died.Conclusion The bleeding sites of CAAH mainly locate in the lobes of the brain surface,with lobulated or irregular shape,which is easily complicated with subarachnoid hemorrhage or intraventricular hemorrhage,with multiple features;diagnostic rate of CAAH can be improved by pathological examination of brain tissues and blood vessels;CAAH after surgery has high relapse rate and poor surgical results.

Objective:To explore the incidence and factors of the influence of preoperative related factors on postoperative orthopedic evaluation, through the evaluation of thoracic shape orthopedic evaluation of children pectus excavatum, during plate implantation after Nuss procedure.Methods:From April 2012 to April 2019, the clinical data were analyzed retrospectively for 159 hospitalized cases of Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum in Xi’an Children’s Hospital.The mean age was(6.8±3.4) years old(3.2-17.0 years old); males 124, females 35; Haller index 4.0±1.0(2.7-7.5); 6 cases(4%) were poor orthopedic evaluation with the thoracic shape, males 5, femal 1; 23 cases (14%) were average satisfied with the thoracic shape, males 16, femals 7; 130 cases (82%)were good orthopedic evaluation with the thoracic, males 103, femals 27. Follow-ups were conducted for at least 2 years, Retrospective analysis of the relationship between postoperative thoracic satisfaction and age, gender, Haller index, how the plates were placed during surgery and symmetry of funnel chest, t test and χ2 test were used for statistical analysis. Results:There were statistically significant differences between thoracic orthopedic evaluation after postoperative and classification of pectus excavatum ( P=0.001), and poor orthopedic evaluation after asymmetric pectus excavatum operationand ; There were no significant differences in gender, Haller index, surgical method and how the plates were placed during surgery( P>0.05). However, it can be seen from the mean and percentage that with the decrease of age, and the increase of Haller index, the orthopedic evaluation gradually becomes worse. Conclusion:According to our single-center study, asymmetric pectus excavatum is a factor for poor orthopedic evaluation during plate implantation after Nuss, especially for young children and children with larger Haller index.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Xianglian Huazhuo prescription in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） based on network pharmacology and animal experiments，so as to provide scientific basis for clinical application. MethodThe possible targets and pathways of Xianglian Huazhuo prescription in the treatment of CAG were obtained based on the prediction of network pharmacology. The CAG rat model was induced by sodium salicylate，N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine （MNNG） and hunger and satiety disorder. Then the CAG rats were treated with Xianglian Huazhuo prescription and morodan for 60 days. After administration，the rats were sacrificed，and the content of interleukin-6 （IL-6），tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α），interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） in serum was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. In addition， the protein expression of Bad and Bcl-2 in gastric mucosa was detected by immunohistochemistry （IHC）. ResultA total of 241 active components of Xianglian Huazhuo prescription and 53 core targets were obtained. Xianglian Huazhuo prescription affected multiple biological processes，such as cell proliferation and apoptosis，inflammatory reaction，regulation of DNA metabolism，and cell response to redox，as well as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B （PI3K/Akt），TNF，mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK），cancer and cancer-related signaling pathways. The animal model verification showed that Xianglian Huazhuo prescription lowered the levels of IL-6，TNF-α，IL-1β and VEGF in serum of CAG rats，and reduced the protein expression of Bad and Bcl-2 in gastric tissue. ConclusionXianglian Huazhuo prescription could regulate PI3K/Akt signal pathway and improve gastric mucosal injury in CAG by participating in biological processes such as cell proliferation，apoptosis and inflammation.

AIM:To test and compare the perceptual eye position and fixation stability of adolescents with emmetropia and adolescents with low myopia, investigating the characteristics of the perceptual eye position and fixation stability of adolescents with low myopia.METHODS: Cross-sectional study. A total of 132 adolescents(264 eyes)who visited in the ophthalmology clinic of our hospital from April to December 2023 were randomly selected as the research subjects. Participants were categorized into normal control group(n=45, 90 eyes), simple low myopia group(n=45, 90 eyes)and low myopia with anisometropia group(n=42, 84 eyes)according to their refractive status and were underwent assessments for perceptual eye position and fixation stability.RESULTS: Compared with the normal control group, the static and dynamic horizontal perceptual eye position deviation of the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly increased(P<0.05). Compared with the simple low myopia group, the static and dynamic horizontal perceptual eye position deviation of the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly increased(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in static and dynamic vertical perceptual eye position deviation among the three groups(P>0.05); compared with the normal control group, the horizontal and vertical fixation stability of the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly worse(all P<0.01), but there was no differences in the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group(P >0.05).CONCLUSION: Abnormalities are observed in perceptual eye position and fixation stability function in adolescents with low myopia compared with those adolescents with emmetropia, even at best corrected visual acuity. The occurrence of anisometropia could lead to an increased degree of horizontal perceptual eye position displacement.
