As resident immune cells of central nervous system(CNS),microglia play a key role in immune surveillance and tissue repair.They can be activated by various types of pathological factors to form M1 or M2 phenotype,which mediates neuroinflam-mation or neuroprotective effects.At the same time,when the homeostasis of the microenvironment in which the neuron is located is broken,"signal"molecules are also released to induce microglial activation through ligand-receptor binding.Therefore,the regulation of microglia-neuron connection is of great significance for treatment of nervous system diseases.This article reviews the signaling mole-cules involved in the two-way interaction between microglial cells and neurons,and elucidates the immune mechanisms of microglia-neuron,thus providing a basis for targeted treatment of CNS diseases related to microglia activation.

Objective:To evaluate the scientificity, transparency and applicability of the Chinese guidelines and consensuses in medical imaging published in 2022 by the STAR scale.Methods:Medical imaging guidelines and consensuses were searched in CNKI, Wanfang data, CMB, Chinese Medical Journal Network, and Medline (PubMed). The publication date was selected from January 1 to December 31, 2022. Each guideline or consensus was independently evaluated and cross-checked by two evaluators using STAR scale.Results:A total of 65 guidelines and consensus that were published as Chinese or English were included, including 15 guidelines and 50 consensuses. Some guidelines and consensus have distinct disciplinary characteristics with topics such as artificial intelligence (4 articles) and Evidence-Based Medical Imaging-Medical Imaging Clinical Appropriateness (EB-MICA, 4 articles). In all guidelines and consensuses, the highest score was 89.9, the lowest was 3.6, and the M( Q1, Q3) was 25.0 (20.8, 35.4). There was no statistical difference in the scores of guidelines and consensuses ( P=0.383). The highest scoring areas were recommendation opinions (reporting rate of 56.0%), working groups (reporting rate of 38.2%), and clinical issues (reporting rate of 36.7%), while the lowest scoring areas were proposal (reporting rate of 9.6%), registration (reporting rate of 10.8%), and consensus methods (reporting rate of 21.8%). Conclusion:It is recommended that guidelines and consensuses initiators of medical imaging strengthen the learning of evidence-based medicine methods, such as STAR tools, in order to further improve the quality of guidelines and consensuses of medical imaging.

Objective:
To evaluate microstructural damage in high myopia (HM) patients using 3T diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI).
Materials and Methods:
This prospective study included 30 HM patients and 33 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) with DKI. Kurtosis parameters including kurtosis fractional anisotropy (FA), mean kurtosis (MK), axial kurtosis (AK), and radial kurtosis (RK) as well as diffusion metrics including FA, mean diffusivity, axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity derived from DKI were obtained. Group differences in these metrics were compared using tract-based spatial statistics. Partial correlation analysis was used to evaluate correlations between microstructural changes and disease duration.
Results:
Compared to HCs, HM patients showed significantly reduced AK, RK, MK, and FA and significantly increased AD, predominately in the bilateral corticospinal tract, right inferior longitudinal fasciculus, superior longitudinal fasciculus, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, and left thalamus (all p < 0.05, threshold-free cluster enhancement corrected). In addition, DKI-derived kurtosis parameters (AK, RK, and MK) had negative correlations (r = -0.448 to -0.376, all p < 0.05) and diffusion parameter (AD) had positive correlations (r = 0.372 to 0.409, all p < 0.05) with disease duration.
Conclusion
HM patients showed microstructural alterations in the brain regions responsible for motor conduction and visionrelated functions. DKI is useful for detecting white matter abnormalities in HM patients, which might be helpful for exploring and monitoring the pathogenesis of the disease.
