AIM: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone combined macular grid photocoagulation treatment for macular edema.
METHODS: Totally 150 cases (150 eyes) with macular edema in our hospital from July 2009 to November 2013 were selected, which were randomly divided into study group (75 cases, 75 eyes) and control group (75 cases, 75 eyes) . The cases in control group were treated with macular grid photocoagulation treatment, those in the study group used triamcinolone acetonide combined macular grid photocoagulation treatment. Best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , parallel optical coherence tomography ( OCT) and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were detected before treatment, after treatment 7d, 1, 3, and 9mo.
RESULTS:After the treatment, patients' vision were significantly improved in two groups (P<0. 05). In the study group 7d, 1, 3, and 9mo after operation, the visual acuity was better than the control group and preoperative (P<0. 05); fovea macular neurosensory layer thickness decreased significantly (P<0. 05). In the control group, the point omentum macular neurosensory retinal thickness was not statistically significant at 7d, 1, 3, and 9mo after operation compared with before treatment (P>0. 05). Fovea macular neurosensory retinal thickness in the study group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0. 05). Intraocular pressure of 7 cases in the study group increased slightly, and were normal after treatment.
CONCLUSION: Triamcinolone acetonide combined macular grid photocoagulation treatment is accurate, can effectively improve the visual acuity, reduce macular edema, it is safe and reliable, and suitable for clinical application.

Objective　To analyze the current status of influenza in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and provide targeted measures for the prevention and control of influenza in the entire region. Methods　We collected data on influenza cases reported in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from the "Disease Monitoring Information Report Management System" of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System from 2018 to 2022. Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS 22.0, and the comparative differences were assessed using the χ2 test. ArcGIS 10.5 was used to create thematic maps. In this study, SaTScan 9.5 was used for spatiotemporal scanning analysis of influenza incidence data in the entire region from 2018 to 2022, conducting retrospective spatiotemporal reordering scans. Results From 2018 to 2022, a total of 25 485 cases of influenza were documented in Inner Mongolia, with the highest number of cases reported in 2019 (9 933 cases). Cases were reported throughout the year, with a peak season occurring in the winter and early spring of the following year. There were 13 538 cases in males and 11 947 cases in females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.13:1, indicating a higher incidence rate in males. Cases were mainly concentrated in individuals under the age of 20, especially in the age group of 0 to 10 years, There were significant differences in influenza incidence rates among different regions and years, showing alternate patterns of prevalence. Retrospective spatiotemporal scanning analysis of influenza cases in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from 2018 to 2022 revealed that, in terms of temporal distribution, the cluster of cases mainly occurred in November to December each year and in January of the following year. During the influenza season, cases exhibited significant spatiotemporal clustering in the region. Conclusions　The number of reported influenza cases in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region varied from year to year but there was no increasing trend over time. Children under 10 years old were the primary susceptible population, and influenza exhibited significant seasonal variation and spatiotemporal clustering. It is recommended to strengthen public awareness and education on influenza prevention and vaccination before the influenza season each year, develop good hygiene habits, seek medical attention early when symptoms occur, and reduce the risk of clustered influenza outbreaks.

A description of the contents, indexes, and method appropriateness for supervision and appraisal of the tobacco control management in hospitals, and an insight on the regularity and effectiveness of building tobacco-free hospitals. The dual indexes of intervention and outcome were ascertained from both dimensions of the management process and effect; in terms of methodology, the paper described the time appropriateness of the supervision focus, management effectiveness of the supervision and appraisal areas, priority of supervision objects, population appropriateness of the supervision and appraisal indexes, method appropriateness of the supervision, appraisal and penalty, as well as the conditional support for supervision and appraisal. It is pointed out that timely summary and appraisal, proper conditional support and circular work chain, can help consolidate tobacco control in hospitals.

The changes of interstitial cells of Cajal(ICC)distribution and connexin 43(Cx43)expression in gastric muscle layers were assayed in gastroparesis models of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.The results showed that gastric emptying was significantly delayed,the contraction frequency and amplitude of gastric muscle segments were greatly decreased,Cx43 gray values were significantly increased and Cx43 distributed homogeneously with ICC immunopositivity in the model rats.These changes appear to be related to the pathogenesis of diabetic gastroparesis.
