Background Recent studies have demonstrated that glaucoma progression had great relationship with corneal biomechanical properties.However,there are not enough studies about corneal biomechanical properties in different types of glaucoma.Objective This study was to evaluate the corneal biomechanical properties in chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma (CPACG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).Methods Prospective observational study was adopted.Sixty-eight cases (68 eyes) with CPACG and 69 POAG patients (69 eyes) from Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center were investigated by a novel technique named Corvis-ST which can measure corneal deformation.The Cronbach's αt coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to evaluate the repeatability of the parameters from Corvis-ST.The differences of corneal biomechanical properties between POAG and CPACG were evaluated by independent-samples t test.Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the association between parameters of deformation response and clinical factors.This study protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center and complied with Helsinki Declaration.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to any medical examination.Results There were no statistic differences about age,sex and intraocular pressure (IOP) between CPACG and POAG patients (all at P＞0.05).However,differences existed in the number of anti-glaucoma medications (t =-2.388,P =0.020).Measurements of central corneal thickness (CCT),deformation amplitude (DA),and peak distance (PD) demonstrated excellent repeatability (ICC≥ 0.8).There were no statistic differences about CCT,first applanation time/length/velocity (A1 T,A1 L,A1V),second applanation time/length/velocity (A2T,A2L,A2V),DA between CPACG and POAG patients (all at P＞ 0.05).The highest concavity time was shorter (t =2.920,P =0.005),PD was bigger (t =-2.453,P =0.017),and central curvature radius (CCR) was smaller (t =1.997,P =0.050) in POAG than those in the CPACG patients.DA,A1V,A2T and PD were negatively associated with IOP (r =-0.709,-0.531,-0.645,-0.554;all at P＜0.001).However,A1T and A2V were positively associated with IOP (r=0.744,0.546;both at P＜0.001).And CCR was positively associated with CCT (r =0.181,P =0.039).Conclusions It is useable to evaluate corneal biomechanical properties of glaucoma by Corvis ST.Under the same level of IOP,the corneal concavity of POAG is easier than that of CPACG,which indicates that cornea in POAG patients is more deformable.

Objective: To understand the characteristics and trends of colorectal cancer incidence and mortality in Lishui residents from 2014 to 2018,so as to provide basis for the development of prevention and treatment measures of colorectal cancer. Methods : The incidence and mortality data of colorectal cancer in Lishui from 2014 to 2018 were collected through the information management system of chronic disease surveillance in Zhejiang Province. The incidence,mortality and annual percentage change(APC)of colorectal cancer were calculated and analyzed in different genders,ages and regions were analyzed. Results: From 2014 to 2018,there were 4 403 new cases of colorectal cancer in Lishui,with the crude and standardized incidence rate of 34.89/100 000 and 20.99/100 000,respectively. There were 2 369 deaths,with a crude mortality rate of 18.77/100 000 and a standardized mortality rate of 10.17 /100 000. The crude incidence rate and crude mortality rate in males were higher than those in females(39.71/100 000 vs. 29.77/100 000,21.31/100 000 vs. 16.08/100 000,both p<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between urban and rural residents in the crude incidence rate and crude mortality rate(37.24/100 000 vs. 34.44/100 000,19.75/100 000 vs. 18.45/100 000,both p<0.05). The crude incidence rate and crude mortality rate increased with age. The APC of the mortality rate of colorectal cancer among urban residents was 11.31%,showing an increasing trend from 2014 to 2018(p<0.05). Conclusion The incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer are high in Lishui,and the focus groups are men,people aged over 40 years and urban residents.

Objective: To investigate the sodium,potassium and blood pressure of adult residents in Liandu District of Lishui,and to provide evidence for salt reduction intervention. Methods: A stratified random sampling method was used to select residents aged 18 to 69 years in Liandu District from December 2016 to February 2017. A questionnaire survey and physical examination were conducted to collect basic information. The 24-hour urine samples were collected to detect sodium and potassium intake. Results: Among 300 participants,the average daily intake of sodium was（10.59±3.90）g,which was higher in men than in women [（11.11±4.33）g vs.（10.08±3.37）g,P<0.05]. There were 274 participants with average daily intake of sodium more than 6 g,accounting for 91.33%. The average daily intake of potassium was（1.67±0.71）g,which was higher in women than in men [（1.77±0.72）g vs.（1.57±0.68）g,P<0.05]. The average daily intakes of potassium were significantly different among different age groups,with participants aged 20 to 29 years the lowest（P<0.05）. There were 217 participants with average daily intake of potassium less than 2 g,accounting for 72.33%. The ratio of sodium to potassium was 4.7±2.2,which was higher in men than in women（5.3±2.7 vs. 4.1±1.4,P<0.05）and decreased with age（P<0.05）. There were 291 participants with the ratio more than 1.87,accounting for 97.00%. The prevalence of hypertension was 31.67%,which was 33.65% in men and 29.80% in women. Conclusion The residents in Liandu District have high intake of sodium and prevalence of hypertension,yet low intake of potassium.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the offset of a laser-assisted flap using the WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser and the clinical results after femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK). Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 125 patients who underwent FS-LASIK for myopia by WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser from June 2017 to July 2018 at the Tungwah Ophthalmic Center were divided into two groups according to the offset of the corneal flap from the pupil center: the no-offset group (57 eyes) and the certain-offset group (68 eyes); the baseline data, including age, sex, uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), spherical degree, and central corneal thickness were matched in the two groups.UCVA, residual astigmatism, spherical degree, corneal curvature and aberration were observed 1 week and 1 month after surgery.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Tungwah Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University (No.2017DHLL004). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to entering the study cohort. Results: UCVA, corneal curvature, spherical degree, spherical and corneal aberration between the two groups were not significantly different (all at P>0.05). One week after surgery, the residual astigmatism was ≤-0.50 D in 50 eyes (87.7%, 50/57)and >-0.50 D in 7 eyes (12.3%, 7/57) in the no-offset group; the residual astigmatism was ≤-0.50 D in 50 eyes (73.5%, 50/68) and >-0.50 D in 18 eyes (26.5%, 18/68) in the no-offset group.The residual astigmatism between the two groups 1 week after surgery was significantly different (χ²=3.902, P=0.048), and there was no significant difference in residual astigmatism 1 month after surgery (χ²=2.031, P=0.068). The trefoil of the no-offset group was statistically less than of the certain-offset group at 1 week and 1 month after surgery (0.05[0.04, 0.08]vs.0.06[0.04, 0.10]; 0.05[0.03, 0.07]vs.0.06[0.05, 0.09])(Z=-2.245, P=0.022; Z=-2.370, P=0.018). The spherical aberration and coma were not significantly different between the two groups at 1 week and 1 month after surgery (both at P>0.05). Conclusions The offset from femtosecond laser-assisted flap by WaveLight FS200 has no effect on long-term visual acuity or residual astigmatism.Some patients may have different visual experiences because of the residual astigmatism and higher order aberration during the early postoperative stage.

The proportions of the participants who had knowledge, attitude and practice of salt reduction for hypertension prevention were 33.40%,60.70% and 58.58%,respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that women（OR=1.583,95%CI：1.248-2.008）,hypertension（OR= 1.734,95%CI：1.303-2.308）,30 to 39 years old（OR=0.368,95%CI：0.226-0.597）,junior high school and above education（OR=0.057-0.403,95%CI：0.036-0.577）were the influencing factors for the knowledge of salt reduction for hypertension prevention;women（OR=1.342,95%CI：1.072-1.679）,married（OR=1.582,95%CI：1.167-2.144）,junior or senior high school education（OR=0.235-0.525,95%CI：0.163-0.736）,having the knowledge（OR=2.640,95%CI：2.033-3.430）were the influencing factors for the attitude of salt reduction for hypertension prevention;women（OR=1.632,95%CI：1.304-2.044）,30 to 39 years old（OR=0.494,95%CI：0.346-0.705）,rural residents（OR= 1.617,95%CI：1.276-2.050）,family history of chronic diseases（OR=1.455,95%CI：1.148-1.845）,having the knowledge（OR= 1.396,95%CI：1.084-1.797）,having the attitude（OR=4.059,95%CI：3.203-5.145）were the influencing factor for the practice of salt reduction for hypertension prevention. Conclusion The residents in Liandu District had low levels of the knowledge,attitude and practice of salt reduction for hypertension prevention. The higher levels of the knowledge and attitude of salt reduction for hypertension prevention,the higher level of the practice.

Objective:To evaluate the value of applying an artificial intelligence (AI) system for diabetic retinopathy (DR) detection and referral in community.Methods:A diagnostic test study was conducted.Four hundred and twenty-one patients (812 eyes) diagnosed with diabetes in three Dongguan community healthcare centers from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2021 were enrolled.There were 267 males, accounting for 63.42% and 154 females, accounting for 36.58%.The subjects were 18-82 years old, with an average age of (51.72±11.28) years.The disease course of the subjects was 0-30 years, with an average course of 3.00 (1.00, 7.00) years.At least one macula-centered 50-degree fundus image was taken for each eye to build a DR image database.All the images were independently analyzed by an AI-assisted diagnostic system for DR, trained and qualified community physicians and ophthalmologists to make diagnosis including with or without DR, referable diabetic retinopathy (RDR) and referral recommendation or not.With diagnoses from ophthalmologists as the standard, sensitivity and specificity of the AI system in detecting DR and RDR were evaluated.The consistency and effective referral rate of the AI system and community physicians in detecting DR, especially in detecting RDR were evaluzted.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Dongguan Tungwah Hospital (No.2019DHLL046).Results:Of 812 eyes, 242 eyes were diagnosed with DR, including 23 with mild nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), 120 with moderate NPDR, 60 with severe NPDR and 39 with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). The other 570 eyes were diagnosed without DR.The sensitivity/specificity of AI system to detect DR and RDR was 87.60%/97.89% and 90.41%/96.29%, respectively.Compared with the ophthalmologists' diagnosis, the Cohen' s Kappa statistic of AI system to detect DR/RDR was 0.87/0.87, which was lower than 0.93/0.98 of community physicians.Among the referral-recommended cases by ophthalmologists, the effective referral rate of the AI system was 90.87% (199/219), which was higher than 89.50% (196/219) of community physicians, without statistically significant difference ( P=1.000). Conclusions:The AI system shows high sensitivity, specificity and consistency in DR detection, especially in RDR.The AI system is better in recognizing RDR than trained community physicians.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) through quantitative computed tomography (QCT).Methods:The present study included 76226 participants. Abdominal fat areas were measured using the QCT Pro Model 4 system. Cardiometabolic indices were collected, including systolic and diastolic blood pressures, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterols CMR score was the sum of abnormal blood pressure, fasting glucose, triglyceride, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Restricted cubic spline and ordered logistic regression models were applied.Results:The mean age was 50±13 years and the percentage of men was 58.8%. The level of VAT area was higher in men than in women (191.7±77.1 cm 2 vs 116.4±56.2 cm 2, P<0.0001 for all). After adjustment for age, the cardiometabolic indices except high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased with increasing VAT area. When VAT area was 300 cm 2, age-adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of a CMR score ≥ 1 were 14.61 (13.31, 16.04) for men and 5.46 (4.06, 7.36) for women, and the age-adjusted probability of a CMR score ≥ 3 was 31.7% for men and 31.3% for women. Conclusions:QCT-derived VAT is closely related to CMR. The findings suggest that measurement of visceral fat is recommended for the management of abdominal obesity in subjects who agree to undergo lung cancer screening via low-dose CT without additional radiation exposure.

Objective:To investigate the normal reference values of spinal bone mineral density measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and the differences of bone mineral density (BMD) in different regions of in Chinese adult males.Methods:Men who underwent low-dose CT lung scan for cancer screening in regions of Northeast, North, East, South, Central and Southwest of China from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected. And the lumbar vertebrae BMD values in the male subjects were measured by the QCT system (Mindways Software, Inc.). The mean BMD values and their decline rates were calculated at an age interval of 10 years, and the prevalence of osteoporosis was calculated according to the American College of Radiology spine QCT osteoporosis diagnostic criteria.Results:A total of 50 682 males with a mean age of (50.22±12.79) years (ranged 20 to 98 years) were included in this study. The peak BMD of (173.11±28.56) mg/cm 3 in the healthy Chinese adult male population appeared in the age group of 20 to 29 years and then declined with age. Before the age of 70 years, the BMD was relatively higher in males in South China, and it was lower in Central China and Southwest China, and it was intermediate in Northeast, North and East of China, with statistically significant differences. There was no significant differences in BMD in the males in the two age groups of 70 to 79 years and 80 and older among the regions in China. The overall decline rate of spinal BMD in Chinese males under QCT was about 46.92% over the lifetime, and it declined obviouslyin the 40-49 age group. The overall prevalence of osteoporosis in Chinese male population aged 50 years and above was approximately 11.42%, with the highest prevalence in Southwest China and Central China (14.72% and 13.87%, respectively) and the lowest in North China and South China (8.53% and 7.71%, respectively). Conclusions:A reference of lumbar spine BMD values for healthy males in China based on QCT is established. BMD values were highest in South China and Lowest in Central China.

Objective:To establish the normal reference value of lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) under quantitative CT (QCT) in Chinese healthy adult females and to explore the regional differences.Methods:Total of 35 431 healthy women who met the inclusion criteria of Chinese health quantitative CT big data program were selected in this study. The BMD of the central plane of L 1 and L 2 vertebrae was measured by Mindways′s QCT system, and the mean value was taken. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the BMD differences of lumbar vertebrae in women of different ages and regions. The subjects were grouped by an age interval of 10 years, and the level of BMD in different regions of the same age group were compaired. Results:The peak BMD of Chinese healthy adult women appeared in the age group of 20-29 years (Northeast China(183.01±24.58) mg/cm 3, North China (188.93±24.80) mg/cm 3, East China (187.54±27.71) mg/cm 3, South China (186.22±33.72) mg/cm 3, Central China (176.33±24.91) mg/cm 3, Southwest China(182.25±28.00) mg/cm 3), and then it decreased with age. The level of BMD in different regions decreased with the age. Before the age of 70 years, BMD in Central and Southwest China was always at a low level((176.23±24.91) to (90.38±28.12) mg/cm 3, 182.25±28.00 to (88.55±25.68) mg/cm 3), lower than those in Northeast China ((183.01±24.58) to (99.69±27.85) mg/cm 3), North China ((188.93±24.80) to (95.89±26.12) mg/cm 3), East China ((187.54±27.71) to (95.65±27.86) mg/cm 3). After 70 years of age, BMD tended to be the same in different regions ( P>0.05). The BMD values in Central China and Southwest China were similar in the age group of 40-60 years ( P>0.05). The BMD values in the health adult femles in the age group of 60 years in different regions of Chinawere all lower than those of bone mass abnormality (all P<0.05). The detection rate of osteoporosis in females over 50 years was the highest in Southwest China (25.65%) and it was the lowest in North China (17.30%). Conclusions:This study establishes reference values of BMD under QCT in healthy Chinese women, which can be used as a reference basis for identifying women with low BMD who are at risk of osteoporosis. The BMD value is the lowest in Southwest China and the highest in South China.
