Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of brinzolamide combined with travoprost in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma.Methods 112 cases(140 eyes)of open-angle glaucoma patients from March 2015 to March 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the group A and the group B 56 cases(70 eyes)in each group.The group A was treated with travoprost therapy,while the group B was given travoprost combined with brinzolamide treatment,the adverse reactions and clinical curative effects in the two groups were observed and compared during treatment.Results After two weeks,one months,three months and six months in the two groups intraocular pressure were significantly lower than those before treatment,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),but in two weeks,one months,three months and six months in the group B the intraocular pressure was significantly lower than that in the group A,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,two groups of BUT and ST were decreased significantly lower than before treatment,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between BUT and ST after treatment,two groups of corneal fluorescein staining and ocular; Bengal staining scores were all significantly higher than before treatment,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),however,there was no significant difference in corneal fluorescein staining and ocular surface of rose bengal staining between the two groups.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion Brinzolamide combined with travoprost can reduce the intraocular pressure of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma,but can reduce tear film stability,damage the cornea,conjunctiva,reduce tear secretion,there is some damage to the conjunctiva,cornea,similar with travoprost.

ObjectiveTo explore the mental health status and its influencing factors among middle school students in Xide County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, and to provide references for mental health interventions for local middle school students. MethodsUsing a cross-sectional study design, one junior middle school and one senior middle school in Xide County, Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province, were randomly selected on September 16, 2021, and two classes per grade in each school involving 288 students were recruited. Subjects were assessed using Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item (GAD-7), PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) and UCLA Loneliness Scale (ULS-3). Then the scores of above scales were compared among middle school students with different demographic characteristics, and binary Logistic regression analysis was conducted to screen the influencing factors of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. ResultsAmong the respondents, 17.71% (95% CI: 0.133~0.221), 8.68% (95% CI: 0.054~0.120), 2.78% (95% CI: 0.009~0.047) and 45.83% (95% CI: 0.400~0.516) were reported to have symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD and loneliness, respectively. Students in senior middle school scored lower on PCL-5 and ULS-3 than those in junior middle school [(6.46±8.91) vs. (8.87±9.42), t=2.202, P<0.05; (4.67±1.65) vs. (5.60±1.88), t=4.431, P<0.01]. Regression analysis denoted that depressive symptoms (OR=7.630, P<0.05) and anxiety symptoms (OR=3.789, P<0.01) were risk factors for PTSD symptoms among middle school students. ConclusionThe middle school students in Xide County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture suffer a high prevalence rate of depressive symptoms and loneliness, and those in junior middle school are more likely to feel a sense of strong loneliness, furthermore, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms are risk factors for PTSD symptoms.
