Objective To investigate the effect of Verisyse iris-claw intraocular lens implantation on correction of high myopia.Methods9 patients with highly myopic (18 eyes and diopter between-6.75 DS to-28.00 DS) were treated with Verisyse intraocular lens implantation. All the treated eyes were observed for uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, anterior segment changes and corneal endothelium preoperatively and postoperatively.ResultsThe implantation was successfully performed in all of 18 eyes. After 3 months, 11 eyes (61.1%) had the uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) ≥0.5; 9 eyes (50.0%) had the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ≥0.8. UCVA and BCVA of every eye were significant improved ( P<0.01); the mean corneal astigmatism and mean intraocular pressure were not different from preoperation ( P>0.05). In all patients, one eye was oval and 2 other eyes showed decentered phakic IOL; 2 patients (2 eyes) complained of halo and glare; no severe complications occurred.ConclusionThe implantation of Verisyse iris-claw intraocular lens for the correction of high myopia has a significantly effect.

Objective To compare the effect of thin-sliced enhanced CT scanning and 3D-DSA data sources in the 3 D printing data reconstruction of intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM ). Methods Five patients with AVM were selected prospectively,3 were Spetzler-Martin grade II and 2 were grade III. Two of them used 256-slice spiral CT thin slice enhanced scanning. Three used the 3D-DSA rotating imaging,and the DICOM raw data of the examination results were extracted. Digital processing was performed by using the Mimics software,and the 3 D printing was performed according to the ratio of 1∶1 obtaining the solid model and the effects were compared. Results Using the data source 3 D printing of 256 slice spiral CT thin-slice enhanced scan could obtained skull and blood vessel image information and could reveal the smallest diameter of 0. 9 mm vessel,however,the fine branch structures of the vessel were difficult to distinguish. The 3D printing based on 3D-DSA data,although the digital subtraction did not have the skull data information,the vascular branches showed more abundant. It could reveal the smallest diameter of 0. 9 mm vessel. Conclusions Using the CT thin-slice enhanced scan or 3D-DSA data source can obtain reconstruction images of AVM nidus,and 3D-DSA shows that the better effect for spatial structure of AVM nidus. It is helpful to the design of preoperative treatment scheme and the development of corresponding auxiliary tools.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of negative pressure suction during laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) on rabbit retinal structure.Methods32 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into normal control, experimental control, negative suction 45 seconds and negative suction 3 minutes groups. Experimental control groups were treated only using eximer laser. In negative suction groups, rabbit eyes were suction for 45 seconds or 3 minutes by negative pressure generator. The tissues of optic nerve and retina both after negative pressure suction and of normal rabbit eyes were examined with electron and light microscope 0, 7, 14, 28 days after operation. ResultsThere was no change in the tissues of optic nerve and retina between normal control and experimental control. After the negative pressure suction for 45 s, the optic nerve and retinal cells changed lightly at different time point. After the negative pressure suction for 3 min, the optic nerve fibers and retinal cells changed sharply during postoperative instant to 14th days, which can be recovered until 28 days after operation.ConclusionUltrastructural changes of retina and optic nerve may be induced by acute intraocular pressure elevation caused by negative pressure suction during LASIK.

OBJECTIVETo construct a three-dimensional (3D) liver model of Wuzhishan mini-pig for virtual liver surgeries.

METHODSThe biliary tree and hepatic arteries of Wuzhishan mini-pig were perfused with perchloroethylene and ethyl acetate along mixed with lead oxide, and the hepatic vein and portal vein were perfused with a mixture of dental base acrylic resin and lead oxide. The sectional images were acquired using a 64-slice spiral CT, and the 3D models of the portal vein, hepatic vein, biliary tree, hepatic arteries, and liver parenchyma were reconstructed using Mimics software; the resection image of the liver was also designed. The intrahepatic vascular cast was prepared by corroding the soft tissue with hydrochloric acid.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONThe intrahepatic vascular cast obtained fully retained the vascular architecture and displayed the fifth- and sixth-level branches of the hepatic vein and portal vein and the third- and fourth-level branches of the artery and bile duct. The 3D model of liver allowed stereoscopic and accurate display of the third- and fourth-level branches of the hepatic vein and portal vein and the second- and third-level branches of the artery and bile duct. The 3D model showed fewer branches but represented the structural distribution identical to the cast. The 3D model could clearly display the spatial relationship between the vasculature and the soft tissue in virtual resection of the liver tissues, and thus provides a useful model for training of laparoscopic liver resection.

Objective To investigate the value of neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) in quantitative evaluation of the microstructural changes in basal ganglia and thalamus in Wilson's disease (WD) patients,and to assess the diagnostic efficacy of NODDI.Methods Totally 27 WD patients (WD group) and 26 age-and sex-matched controls (control group) were enrolled.All subjects underwent MR scanning with NODDI.Parameters of NODDI,including intracellular volume fraction (Vic),orientation dispersion index (ODI) and isotropic volume fraction (Viso) of bilateral caudate nucleus,globus pallidus,putamen and thalamus were compared between the 2 groups.Correlation analysis was performed between each parameter of NODDI and clinical Young scores.Random Forest model was used to assess the relative importance of each parameter and to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy.Results The Vic and ODI of bilateral caudate nucleus,globus pallidus and putamen in WD patients were significantly lower than those in normal controls (all P＜0.05),while Viso was significantly higher than that in normal controls (all P＜0.05).The Vic of bilateral thalamus was lower,while Viso was higher in WD patients than those in normal controls (all P＜0.05),and ODI had no significant difference between the 2 groups (P=0.055).In WD patients,Vic and ODI of bilateral caudate nucleus,globus pallidus and putamen were negatively correlated with clinical Young scores.Viso of globus pallidus and putamen were positively correlated with clinical scores.The prediction accuracy of NODDI was 96.23％,and the area under ROC curve was 0.96.Conclusion NODDI can effectively evaluate changes in microstructures and metabolism during copper deposition in WD patients,and it may be useful in detecting changes of brain deep nuclei and assessing the progression of WD.

Objective:The tumor-stroma ratio(TSR)is considered an independent prognostic factor for gastric cancer.Traditionally,TSR as-sessments have relied on the visual evaluation of surgical specimens,which is a method that lacks objectivity.This study was conducted to investigate whether the TSR in preoperative biopsy specimens can be automatically quantified using deep learning methods and whether the TSR value can be used to predict the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)in patients with gastric cancer.Methods:In total,148 preoperative biopsy slides and 43 surgical resection slides from patients with gastric cancer who underwent NAC treatment at Yunnan Can-cer Hospital between March 2013 and March 2020 were used in the study.Tumor region segmentation and epithelial-stromal segmentation models were developed.The surgical resection slides were used to trained and evaluate the model,and the biopsy slides were used to test their predictive abilities.The TSR values were determined on the basis of the intersection of predictions from both models.The postoperat-ive pathological tumor regression grade(TRG)was used to categorize patients into good responders(TRG 0-1)and poor responders(TRG 2-3).Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the correlation between the TSR value and the ef-ficacy of NAC in gastric cancer.Results:The intersection over union(IOU)value was 0.94 for the tumor tissue segmentation model and 0.88 for the epithelial-stromal segmentation model.Using cutoff values of 44.93％and 70.22％,patients were classified into low,intermediate,and high TSR groups.The proportion of good responders was significantly different among these groups(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic re-gression analysis indicated that the TSR was an independent predictor of NAC response in gastric cancer(OR=0.10,95％CI:0.03-0.32).When the TSR three-category classification was added as a predictor of treatment response alongside conventional clinical information,the area under curve(AUC)increased from 0.71 to 0.85.Conclusions:This deep learning model is capable of automatically segmenting tumor,epi-thelial,and stromal regions based on pathological slides,accurately calculating TSR value,and predicting the efficacy of NAC on the basis of the automatically computed TSR values.

ObjectiveTo analyse the current implementation status of Chinese herbal medicine （CHM） placebo and systematically evaluate the placebo effect in randomised controlled trials （RCTs） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） for the treatment of functional dyspepsia （FD）. MethodsA combination of medical subject terms and free words was used to search six databases， including PubMed， EMBASE， Cochrane Library， Web of Science， China National Knowledge Infrastructure， and Wanfang， for RCTs with CHM placebo group for FD published from January 31st， 1994 to September 30th， 2023. The dosage forms， composition， and methodological quality were collected and evaluated. The quality of the included articles was evaluated by Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool， and meta-analysis was performed on the CHM placebo response rate of patients with FD， and subgroup analysis and meta-regression was performed according to diagnostic criteria， efficacy criteria， duration of treatment， type of placebo， whether it contained active ingredient， and whether it evaluated placebo effects. ResultsA total of 34 publications were included involving 5046 participants， of which 2221 FD patients received CHM placebo treatment. Granules were the predominant placebo preparation， accounting for 71% （24/34）； 32.35% （11/34） of the studies added real CHM to the placebo， and only 12 （35%） of the studies described appearance， odour， and taste. The placebo response rate in FD patients in the placebo group was 41% （95% CI： 0.35 to 0.47； P＜0.01， I² = 87%）； there was significant difference between groups with different diagnostic criteria and different treatment durations （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， but there was no significant difference between the different efficacy evaluation criteria， the different placebo preparation， the presence of a low-dose active ingredient， and the presence or absence of placebo assessment （P＞0.05）. ConclusionThere was a significant CHM placebo effect in patients with FD， with granules as the main preparation of placebop. Different diagnostic criteria and different treatment times may affect the response rate of patients， and the addition of low-dose real medicine to the CHM placebos has not been seen to have an effect on the response rate. Clinical investigators have not paid enough attention to placebos， and there is a lack of uniform standards and norms for the preparation and evaluation of CHM placebos.

ObjectiveTo explore the pharmacodynamic effect of the water extract of Citri Grandis exocarpium （WEC） on mice with alcohol-induced acute liver injury and provide data support for the development of this medicinal for anti-alcoholism and liver protection. MethodThe main components of WEC were determined by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）. Sixty Balb/c mice were randomized into 6 groups： control group （equal volume of 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium solution）， model group （equal volume of 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium solution）， low-， medium-， and high-dose WEC groups （0.5， 1.0， 2.0 g·kg^-1）， and Haiwang Jinzun tablet positive control group （2.0 g·kg^-1）. The administration lasted 14 days. One day before the end of the administration， mice were fasted for 12 h with free access to water. The mice， except the control group， were given 56° Chinese liquor （13 mL·kg^-1）. After 2 h， blood was taken from eyeballs and the liver was dissected and weighed. Automatic biochemical analyzer was employed to detect the expression of alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， and alcohol dehydrogenase （ADH）. The pathological changes of liver tissues were observed based on hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， and apoptosis of hepatocytes based on TUNEL/DAB staining. The expression of proteins related to apoptosis was detected by Western blot. ResultAccording to the HPLC fingerprint， the main components of WEC were rhoifolin and naringin. Compared with the control group， the model group showed increase in liver/body weight ratio （P<0.01） and the expression of ALT and AST （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decrease in the expression of ADH （P<0.05）， blurred structure of hepatic lobules， pathological changes of liver tissue， loose cytoplasm with edema， severe steatosis， rise of the TUNEL-positive rate （P<0.01）， reduction in expression of Bcl-2 （P<0.01）， and increase in Bax and Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， medium-dose WEC lowered liver/body weight ratio （P<0.05）. All doses of WEC depressed the activity of ALT and AST （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated the expression of ADH （P<0.05）， significantly improved the pathological features of alcohol-induced cytoplasmic porosity， edema， and steatosis， down-regulated the TUNEL-positive rate （P<0.05， P<0.01）， enhanced the expression of Bcl-2 （P<0.05）， and decreased Bax and Caspase-3 （P<0.01）. ConclusionWEC regulates the expression of ALT， AST， and ADH and improves hepatic steatosis and hepatocyte apoptosis to fight against acute liver injury.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the pharmacodynamic effects of the Citri Grandis Exocarpium extract on anorexia model immature rats.METHODS Ten immature rats were randomly selected as the control group and given regular diet， while anorexia model was induced in the remaining 50 immature rats using the etiological simulation method. The immature model rats were divided into the model group， Jianwei xiaoshi tablet group （0.65 g/kg）， Citri Grandis Exocarpium extract low-dose， medium- dose and high-dose groups （0.5， 1.0， 2.0 g/kg）. After 14 d of continuous intragastric administration， the body mass and food intake of rats in each group were observed， and the gastric acid concentration， pepsinase activity， serum levels of gastrin （GAS）， motilin （MTL） and gastric inhibitory peptide （GIP） were measured. The histopathological changes in the gastric tissue were observed.RESULTS Compared with control group， the food intake， gastric acid concentration， pepsin activity， the levels of GAS and MTL were significantly decreased and GIP level was significantly increased in the immature rats of model group （P＜0.05）； gastric histopathological examination showed significant gastric mucosal congestion and loosening and detachment of epithelial cells. Compared with model group， all administration groups showed different degrees of improvement in the above indexes and decreased gastric histopathological damage after drug intervention.CONCLUSIONS Citri Grandis Exocarpium extract improves gastric motility and protects gastric mucosa in the immature rats by regulating the concentration of gastric acid， pepsin activity， the levels of GAS， MTL and GIP， thus improving anorexia in immature rats.
