Ocular opsoclonus is a rare disorder of the saccadic system, in which fixation is continuously interrupted by involuntary, chaotic, rapid and multi-directional saccadic eye movements, interrupting the gaze-holding function, leading to“dancing eyes”. Ocular opsoclonus has rarely been reported in China. A case of ocular opsoclonus associated with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis is reported to improve awareness about the ocular sign. The patient′s condition reached the peak at the 5th week. He developed ocular opsoclonus on the basis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, accompanied by frequent involuntary movements of the mouth and limbs. The ocular opsoclonus gradually relieved on the 7th week with the active treatment.

BACKGROUND:
Standard two-dimensional (2D) culture has confirmed the mechanism of mast cells (MCs) in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but the regulation of signaling responses of MCs may well differ in three-dimensional (3D) microenvironments. The aim of the study was to develop a 3D culture model based on decellularized intestinal scaffolds (DIS) and verify how MCs influenced fibroblasts phenotype in the 3D model.
METHODS:
DIS were achieved using the detergent technique and extracellular matrix (ECM) components were verified by histologic analysis, quantification and scanning electron microscope. After human colon fibroblasts recellularized into the scaffolds and activated by MCs tryptase and TGFb1, the changes in genes and signaling pathways during fibroblasts activation in 3D were studied and compared with the changes in 2D cell culture on plastic plates.
RESULTS:
Decellularization process effectively removed native cell debris while retaining natural ECM components and structure. The engrafted fibroblasts could penetrate into the scaffolds and maintain its phenotype. No matter whether fibroblasts were cultured in 2D or 3D, MCs tryptase and transforming growth factor b1 (TGF-b1) could promote the differentiation of fibroblasts into fibrotic-phenotype myofibroblasts through Akt and Smad2/3 signaling pathways. Furthermore, the pro-collagen1a1 and fibronectin synthesis of myofibroblasts in 3D was higher than in 2D culture.
CONCLUSION
Our results demonstrated that the DIS can be used as a bioactive microenvironment for the study of intestinal fibrosis, providing an innovative platform for future intestinal disease modeling and screening of genes and signaling pathways.

Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic nonspecific intestinal inflammatory disease with unclear etiology and pathogenesis. At present, it is believed that CD can cause different degrees of metabolic abnormalities, and that the related metabolites also play an important role in the development and progression of the disease. In recent years, metabonomics is becoming more and more well-developed and has provided guidance for clinicians on rational nutritional support. Here is a review on the metabolic changes of multiple systems in CD patients, the application of metabonomics in CD diagnosis and treatment, and the research progress of clinical nutrition intervention.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics and death risk factors of the patients with fall-related injuries in parts of Kashgar Prefecture during 2019-2020.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed of the 894 patients with fall-related injuries who had been admitted to Department of Trauma Center, The First People's Hospital of Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2019 to December 2020. Recorded were the patient's gender, age, location of fall, month of fall, fall height, major injury site, injury severity score (ISS) and Glasgow score (GCS). The clinical characteristics and death risk factors of the fall patients were analyzed.Results:Of the 894 patients, 72.3%(646/894) were male and 86.9%(777/894) fell from a height from 1 to 6 meters. Their ages ranged mainly from 15 to 59 years old (74.3%, 664/894). Home was the most frequent site for falls (60.2%, 538/894) and the patients who fell in summer months (from June to August) were the most (32.3%, 289/894). Twenty-one patients (2.3%, 21/894) died. There were significant differences in the major injury site, blood transfusion, ISS score and GCS score between the dead and survival patients ( P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the injury to the head, face and neck [ OR=10.936, 95% CI: 1.177 to 101.627, P=0.035] and GCS score ≤12 [ OR=5.640, 95% CI: 2.658 to 11.968, P< 0.001] were the death risk factors for the patients with fall-related injuries in parts of Kashgar Prefecture during 2019-2020. Conclusions:In the patients with fall-related injuries in parts of Kashgar Prefecture during 2019-2020, males aged from 15 to 59 years old were the high-risk group of falls. Months with a high incidence of falls were from June to August. The fall patients with injuries to the head, face and neck and with a GCS score of ≤12 were at a high risk of death.
