With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially deep learning, AI research in the field of ophthalmology has presented a trend of diversification in disease types, generalization in scenarios and deepening in researches. The AI algorithm has showed a good performance in the studies of diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and other ocular diseases, yielding up the great potential of ophthalmic AI. However, most studies are still in their infancy, and the application of ophthalmic AI still faces many challenges such as lack of interpretability for results, deficiency of data standardization, and insufficiency of clinical applicability. At the same time, it should also be noted that the development of multi-modal imaging, the innovation of digital technologies (such as 5G and the Internet of Things) and telemedicine, and the new discovery that retina status can reflect systemic diseases have brought new opportunities for the development of ophthalmic AI. Learn the current status of AI research in the field of ophthalmology, grasp the new challenges and opportunities in its development process, successfully realizing the transformation of ophthalmic AI from research to practical application.

Objective To understand the cause of chest pain (precordium indisposition) in children and explore the thread of thought in its analysis.Methods Clinical data of 314 children with chest pain who visited the cardiovascular department for children of our hospital were collected and analyzed to study its causes.Results The cause could be attributed to organic cardiac diseases in 43 of 314 children (13.7%) with chest pain,to non-organic cardiac diseases in 108 (34.4%),to psychiatric-psychological factors in 60 (19.1%) and to unknown cause in 41 (13.1%).Average age of children with organic cardiac diseases was younger than that of children with other causes (P<0.05).Symptoms accompanied simultaneously in children with organic cardiac diseases were much more frequent significantly than those in them with non-organic cardiac chest pain and unknown causes (P<0.05).Conclusions Chest pain in children could be caused by a few causes,which was non-specific symptom for organic cardiac diseases,so, more should be taken into account in analyzing the cause of chest pain in children.

Hyperlipidemia pancreatitis in children is mostly genetic metabolic disease.The incidence of acute pancreatitis in children is only (3-13)/100 000, and pancreatitis caused by hyperlipidemia accounts for 9% of acute pancreatitis.A child suffering from V-type hyperlipidemia pancreatitis was admitted to the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University in July 2019.The missense mutation at position c. 2770G>A of CFTR gene (nucleotide 2770 in coding region changed from guanine to adenine) in children was detected by gene sequencing, thus resulting in amino acid change p. D924N.It is extremely rare to report that CFTR gene mutation causes hereditary pancreatitis, and there is no literature report on c. 2770G>A site.This case is reported as follows, hoping to provide reference and inspiration for pediatricians.

Objective To compare the features of OCT angiography (OCTA) between neovascular agerelated macular degeneration (nAMD) and myopic ehoroidal neovascularization (mCNV) patients before and after intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment.Methods A prospective cohort study.Twenty-nine patients (37 eyes) with nAMD (19 males and 10 females,aged 68.20±8.76) and 31 patients (34 eyes) with mCNV (9 males and 22 females,aged 43.10± 11.80,with the mean diopter of-9.71 ± 1.20 D) from Department of Ophthalmology,West China Hospital of Sichuan University during May and December 2017 were included in this study.Ranibizumab or Conbercept (0.5 mg/0.05 ml) was intravitreally injected in all eyes.The patients were follow-up for 3-6 months.The OCTA was conducted before treatment and 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3-6 months after treatment.In order to ensure that the scanning position was the same,the tracking mode was adopted for each scanning.According to the OCTA images,the lesion area,parafoveal superficial vessel density and perfusion area were measured and analyzed contrastively between nAMD and mCNV patients.Results The mean lesion area before and 1 month after treatment in nAMD patients were 0.38± 1.87 mum2 and 0.06±0.12 mm2,while in mCNV patients,those were 0.26± 1.06 mm2 and 0.03 ± 0.05 mm2,respectively.There were statistically significant differences (Z=4.181,4.475;P＜0.001) in CNV lesion area before and 1 month after treatment between nAMD and mCNV patients.Compared with those before treatment,the absolute change (Z=1.853,P=0.064) and the percentage changes (t=2.685,P=0.010) of CNV lesion area l month after treatment in nAMD and mCNV patients show a statistical meaning.There were significantly decreases in both parafoveal superficial vessel density (F=8.997,P=0.003) and perfusion area (F=7.887,P=0.015) 3 months after treatment in nAMD patients,while decreases in parafoveal superficial vessel density (F=11.142,P=0.004) and perfusion area (F=7.662,P=0.013) could be detected 1 day after treatment in mCNV patients,before rising 1 month after treatment.Conclusions There are significantly differences in lesion area before and after the treatment of intravitreal anti-VEGF between nAMD and mCNV patients by OCTA examination.Moreover,the changes of both parafoveal superficial vessel density and perfusion area after anti-VEGF treatment are statistically different in two groups.

BACKGROUND:Total hip and knee arthroplasty is widely used in the elderly population,but there is a lack of accurate prediction methods for unplanned readmission and postoperative complications. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of the Rothman index on unplanned readmission and complications in elderly patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A total of 153 patients who underwent elective total hip and knee arthroplasty from December 2020 to December 2022 in Ward Area One,Department of Orthopedics,The First People's Hospital of Zunyi were selected as the study subjects.According to whether they were unplanned readmission within 90 days after discharge,they were divided into a readmission group(n=21)and a non-readmission group(n=132).The general data of all patients were collected through the electronic medical record system,including gender,age,body mass index,diabetes mellitus,hypertension,and surgical joint type.The Rothman index was evaluated according to the literature.Postoperative complications were counted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There was no significant difference in gender,body mass index,surgical joint type,and length of hospital stay between the readmission group and the non-readmission group(P>0.05).There were significant differences in the number of comorbidities,age,and Rothman score between the two groups(P<0.05).(2)The results of multivariate Logistics regression analysis showed that the number of comorbidities,age,and Rothman score were independent influencing factors for readmission 90 days after total hip and knee arthroplasty in elderly patients with hip and knee diseases(P<0.05).(3)The results of receiver operating characteristic curve analysis exhibited that the area under the curve of the Rothman index for predicting readmission 90 days after total hip and knee arthroplasty was 0.824;the sensitivity was 80.85%;the specificity was 78.85%;the maximum Youden index was 0.597,and the optimal cutoff value was 46 points.(4)The incidence of total complications in elderly patients with Rothman<46 was higher than that in elderly patients with Rothman≥46(P<0.05).(5)It is concluded that the Rothman index can accurately predict unplanned readmission after total hip and knee arthroplasty in elderly patients with hip and knee joint diseases.Simultaneously,patients with Rothman index of less than 46 points have a higher overall risk of complications and poor joint recovery,which can be used to improve postoperative management of patients in clinical practice.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common cause of blindness among people over 65 in developed countries.With the rapidity of population aging process,the prevalence of AMD will be further increased.The application of anti-vascular endothelial factor growth medicine in ophthalmology has made great progress in the therapeutic effect and prognosis of wet AMD.In this context,many countries and regions have successively formulated guidelines for the AMD clinical diagnosis and treatment,especially the United States,Europe and Australia.Through the analysis of AMD clinical guidelines of American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) in 2015,and by comparing it with AMD analysis and treatment guidelines of European Society of Retina Specialists (EURETINA) in 2014,this paper provides an accurate,effective and comprehensive diagnosis strategy and lays a foundation for providing AMD patients with quality diagnosis and treatment plans.

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are highly conserved immune cells that could participate in innate and adaptive immune responses after being activated by major histocompatibility complex class 1-related molecule (MR1) pathway or cytokine pathway. At present, it has been confirmed that a large number of MAIT cells exist in human peripheral blood and specific tissues, and play an important role in infectious diseases. This review focused on the role of MAIT cells in immune responses to different pathogens. Additionally, the therapeutic methods and challenges of targeting MAIT cells in infectious diseases were also discussed.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics ofretinoblastoma (RB) in Southwest China.Methods A retrospective clinical study.From January 2010 to December 2017,66 RB patients diagnosed in Ophthalmology Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were included in the study.All the patients underwent ocular B-ultrasound,orbital CT or MRI examination.Ten patients underwent RetCam examination at the same time.Twenty-nine patients were diagnosed by histopathological examination,and 37 patients were diagnosed by clinical symptoms and imaging examination.According to whether the tumor invaded the orbit and optic nerve,it could be divided into extraocular stage and intraocular stage.Intraocular tumors were divided into A-E stages according to the international intraocular RB classification.Treatments were performed according to different stages.The general information,age at diagnosis,course of diseases (the time between onset symptoms and diagnosis),causes of visiting a doctor,classification,treatment methods and eyeball preservation rate were retrospectively analyzed.Results Patients all came from Southwest China (56 patients from Sichuan Province,2 patients from Yunnan Province,2 patients from Guizhou Province,and 6 patients from Tibet).The permanent residence were identified in 43 patients,including 27 patients (62.8％) from rural areas.There were 38 males (57.6％);50 unilateral tumors (75.8％) and 16 bilateral tumors (24.2％);51 firstvisiting patients (77.3％) and 15 re-visiting patients (22.7％).The average diagnostic age of first-visiting patients was 20.9 ± 14.4 months,with 23.2 ± 14.7 and 11.2 ± 7.6 months for unilateral and bilateral tumors,respectively.There were 41 patients had definite course and causes,of whom the average course was 90.6± 115.2 days.The most common cause was leucocoria in 32 patients (62.7％),followed by redness and swelling in 4 patients (9.8％),and other causes in 5 patients (12.2％).Among the 15 re-visiting patients,the average diagnostic age was 63.6± 46.8 months,the average course was 32.8 ± 45.5 months.Recurrence was occurred in 5 patients (33.3％),leucocoria in 4 patients (26.7％),postoperative complication in 3 patients (20.0％),protrusion in 2 patients (13.3％) and redness in 1 (6.7％) patient,respectively.Fifty out of 82 eyes were admitted to hospital,including 37 eyes of first-visiting patients and 13 eyes of re-visiting patients.Among 37 first-visiting eyes,there were 5 eyes (13.5％) in stage A-C,26 eyes (70.3％) in stage D-E,6 eyes (16.2％) in extraocular stage.Five eyes in stage A-C were treated with laser photocoagulation and (or) cryotherapy combined with systemic chemotherapy.Four eyes in stage D were treated with intraocular arterial chemotherapy.Nineteen eyes (51.3％) were performed with enucleation,2 eyes (5.4％) with evisceration and 7 eyes (18.9％) abandoned treatment.Among 13 re-visiting eyes,6 eyes (46.2％,with 5 eyes of recurrence) had been enucleated before,4 eyes (30.8％) were in extraocular stage and 3 eyes (23.1％) in stage D-E.Five eyes (38.5％) were treated with evisceration,4 eyes (30.8％) with enucleation,1 eye with oculoplastic surgery and 3 eyes (23.1％) abandoned treatment.The rate of eye preservation was 18.0％,29.0％ for intraocular stage and 0％ for extraocular stage,respectively.Conclusion RB patients in Southwest China have a longer course between onset symptoms and diagnosis,more advanced classification and lower rate of eye preservation.

With an increasing proportion of sedentary lifestyle related chronic diseases, an efficient way to help fight the growing world epidemic of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and promote public health in a fast-changing world is urgently needed. Exercise and medicine science have played an important role in prevention and control of NCDs. However, the current status and future development directions regarding the integration of exercise science and medicine (IESM) in China have not been well discussed.
