Objective To analyze serum 25(OH)D level and the influence factors in preterm infants. Methods The data of serum 25(OH)D level in preterm infants born from July 2012 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed along with gestational age, gender, parity, delivery mode, birth season, birth weight, age of the mother and pregnancy complications. Results Totally 325 cases were included and their average gestational age was 33.41±2.29 week, the ratio of male to female was 1.32?1 and average serum 25(OH)D level was 37.34±16.17 nmol/L. The incidence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in preterm infants was 37.8% and 41.8% respectively. Serum 25 (OH) D levels in preterm infants born in summer and autumn were higher than those born in winter and spring, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that birth season and the mother's age may be the risk factors that influence serum 25 (OH) D levels in preterm infants. Conclusion The incidence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in preterm infants is high, and the factors affecting the level of vitamin D need to be further studied.

Pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD),a common neurodegenerative disease,is not well established.Immune-inflammatory responses are considered to be important in the development and progression of PD,including over-activated microglia,increased inflammatory cytokines,changes in compositions and phenotypes of T lymphocytes,increased antibodies produced by B lymphocytes.Recent studies have found that T cells in PD patients can recognize α-synuclein peptides and become a research hotspot.In this review,we summarize the research progress in innate and adaptive immune-inflammatory responses in pathogenesis of PD.

Objective:To evaluate the efficiency of ResNet50-OC model based on deep learning for multiple classification of color fundus photographs.Methods:The proprietary dataset (PD) collected in July 2018 in BenQ Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and EyePACS dataset were included.The included images were classified into five types of high quality, underexposure, overexposure, blurred edges and lens flare according to clinical ophthalmologists.There were 1 000 images (800 from EyePACS and 200 from PD) for each type in the training dataset and 500 images (400 from EyePACS and 100 from PD) for each type in the testing dataset.There were 5 000 images in the training dataset and 2 500 images in the testing dataset.All images were normalized and augmented.The transfer learning method was used to initialize the parameters of the network model, on the basis of which the current mainstream deep learning classification networks (VGG, Inception-resnet-v2, ResNet, DenseNet) were compared.The optimal network ResNet50 with best accuracy and Micro F1 value was selected as the main network of the classification model in this study.In the training process, the One-Cycle strategy was introduced to accelerate the model convergence speed to obtain the optimal model ResNet50-OC.ResNet50-OC was applied to multi-class classification of fundus image quality.The accuracy and Micro F1 value of multi-classification of color fundus photographs by ResNet50 and ResNet50-OC were evaluated.Results:The multi-classification accuracy and Micro F1 values of color fundus photographs of ResNet50 were significantly higher than those of VGG, Inception-resnet-v2, ResNet34 and DenseNet.The accuracy of multi-classification of fundus photographs in the ResNet50-OC model was 98.77% after 15 rounds of training, which was higher than 98.76% of the ResNet50 model after 50 rounds of training.The Micro F1 value of multi-classification of retinal images in ResNet50-OC model was 98.78% after 15 rounds of training, which was the same as that of ResNet50 model after 50 rounds of training.Conclusions:The proposed ResNet50-OC model can be accurate and effective in the multi-classification of color fundus photograph quality.One-Cycle strategy can reduce the frequency of training and improve the classification efficiency.

The abnormal increase of iron content in the substantia nigra pars compacta of Parkinson's disease (PD) is closely related to dopaminergic neuron injury, which affects the occurrence and development of PD. MRI techniques, including iron concentration-sensitive R2*, Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM), have already applied in the quantification of iron load in brains. MRI techniques have wide application prospects in the early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, monitoring the disease progress and guiding treatment of PD. This article runs retrospective analysis on MRI quantitative research status of iron deposition in brains of patients with PD.

Dissociated optic nerve fiber layer (DONFL) appearance is consists of numerous arcuate dark striae within the posterior pole in the direction of the optic nerve fibers. And on the cross-sectional image, DONFL was correspond to inner retinal dimples. It mainly occurs after the internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling due to the direct damage on the local retina and the broad tractional effect on the posterior retina during membrane peeling. DONFL appearance is considered to be a spontaneous and delayed morphologic change with a subclinical nature, and appears to have little effect on retinal function. In addition to avoiding the removal of ILM and reducing the area of ILM peeling, a novel technique for reposition of the fixed ILM flap with the assistance of perfluoro-n-octane and the temporal inverted ILM flap technique can also be used to prevent and reduce the occurrence of DONFL appearance. Further studies on its development, clinical features and clinical significance are still required.

Objective:To observe and analyze the accuracy of the optic disc positioning and segmentation method of fundus images based on deep learning.Methods:The model training strategies were training and evaluating deep learning-based optic disc positioning and segmentation methods on the ORIGA dataset. A deep convolutional neural network (CNN) was built on the Caffe framework of deep learning. A sliding window was used to cut the original image of the ORIGA data set into many small pieces of pictures, and the deep CNN was used to determine whether each small piece of picture contained the complete disc structure, so as to find the area of the disc. In order to avoid the influence of blood vessels on the segmentation of the optic disc, the blood vessels in the optic disc area were removed before segmentation of the optic disc boundary. A deep network of optic disc segmentation based on image pixel classification was used to realize the segmentation of the optic disc of fundus images. The accuracy of the optic disc positioning and segmentation method was calculated based on deep learning of fundus images. Positioning accuracy=T/N, T represented the number of fundus images with correct optic disc positioning, and N represented the total number of fundus images used for positioning. The overlap error was used to compare the difference between the segmentation result of the optic disc and the actual boundary of the optic disc.Results:On the dataset from ORIGA, the accuracy of the optic disc localization can reach 99.6%, the average overlap error of optic disc segmentation was 7.1%. The calculation errors of the average cup-to-disk ratio for glaucoma images and normal images were 0.066 and 0.049, respectively. Disc segmentation of each image took an average of 10 ms.Conclusion:The algorithm can locate the disc area quickly and accurately, and can also segment the disc boundary more accurately.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of GSK484 on ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and neutrophil extracelluar traps (NETs) in mice.Methods:Forty-eight SPF healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 5-6 weeks, weighing 15-20 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=12 each) by a random number table method: spontaneous breathing group (group S), spontaneous breathing+ GSK484 intervention group (group SG), VILI group (group V), and VILI + GSK484 intervention group (group VG). The animals kept spontaneous breathing for 4 h after tracheal intubation in S and SG groups. The animals were mechanically ventilated for 4 h (tidal volume 30 ml/kg, respiratory rate 75 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶2, positive end-expiratory pressure 0 mmHg, fraction of inspired oxygen 21%) in V and VG groups. At 3 days before developing the VILI model, GSK484 4 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected once a day in SG and VG groups, while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in S and V groups. Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta for blood gas analysis at 4 h of spontaneous breathing or mechanical ventilation, and PaO 2 was recorded. The mice were then sacrificed and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected and lung tissues were obtained for microscopic examination of the pathological changes (with a light microscope after HE staining) which were scored and for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio), concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in BALF (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), neutrophil elastase (NE), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and citrullinated-histone 3 (Cit-H3) in lung tissues (by Western blot). Results:Compared with S and SG groups, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased, PaO 2 was decreased, concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and MPO in BALF were increased, and the expression of PAD4, NE, HMGB1 and Cit-H3 in lung tissues was up-regulated in V and VG groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group V, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly decreased, PaO 2 was increased, the concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and MPO in BALF were decreased, and the expression of PAD4, NE, HMGB1 and Cit-H3 was down-regulated in group VG ( P<0.05). Conclusions:GSK484 can alleviate VILI in mice, and the mechanism is associated with inhibition of PAD4, reduction of the production of NETs and attenuation of inflammatory responses in lung tissues.
