Background Researches showed that femtosecond laser corneal small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) was used in the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism due to its fast recovery,good shortterm efficacy and few complications.However,few research focused on its long-term efficacy.Objective Thisstudy was to evaluate the effectiveness,safety,predictability,stability and complications of SMILE.Methods A serial cases-observational study was carried out under the approval of Ethic Committee of Henan Eye Institute and informed consent of patients.Sixty-seven eyes of 34 patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism were included in Henan Eye Institute from January to June 2013.All the patients received SMILE and followed-up for 2-year duration.The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),automatic optometry,intraocular pressure and corneal topography were examined before surgery and 1 day,1 week,1 month,3 months,1 year and 2 years after surgery and calculated the spherical equivalent (SE).The long-term efficacy of SMILE included effective index (preoperative BCVA/postoperative UCVA),safety index (postoperative BCVA/ preoperative BCVA),predictability (linear regression analysis between actual SE and attempted SE) and refractive stability (SE changes at postoperative time points).Results The preoperative BCVA was ≥ 20/20 in 60 eyes with the percentage of 89.55％.UCVA≥ 20/20 were found in 61 eyes and 60 eyes in postoperative 3 months and 2 years respectively (91.04％ and 89.55％).The effective index was 1.038±0.182 and 1.029±0.231 in postoperative 3 months and 2 years respectively,showing an insignificant difference between them (t =0.400,P ＞ 0.05).Compared with the preoperative BCVA,8.96％ (6/67) and 10.45％ (7/67) eyes lost 1 line at 3 months and 2 years after surgery,respectively.The safety indexes were 1.141±0.193 and 1.312±0.242 at 3 months and 2 years after surgery,with no significant difference between them (t =0.414,P＞0.05).A linear correlation was found between actual SE and attempted SE both at postoperative 3 months and 2 years,with the linear regression equations of Y=0.897 1X-0.440 8 (R2 =0.914 2,P＜0.05) and Y =0.893 7X-0.382 3 (R2 =0.915 7,P＜0.05),respectively.The SE was (0.013±0.578),(-0.033±0.489),(-0.106±0.508),(-0.103±0.375),(-0.154±0.518) and (-0.147±0.366)D 1 day,1 week,1 month,3 months,1 year and 2 years after surgery,respectively,and there were no significant difference among different time points (F =0.185,P =0.176).Eighteen in the 67 eyes occurred opaque bubble layer after surgery.Diffuse lamellar keratitis appeared in 6 eyes and punctate keratitis was in 2 eyes.These complications were cured 1 month after administration of drugs.Conclusions SMILE is good in effectiveness,safety,predictability and refreactive stability and has fewer complications during 2-year following-up.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of direct-acting antiviral (DAA) on the recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative treatment. MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched for the clinical studies of DAA and the recurrence of HCV-related HCC published up to April 2020. Stata 14.0 software was used to perform the meta-analysis. The Cochran Q test was used to evaluate heterogeneity between studies; the fixed effects model was used for non-heterogeneous data, and the random effects model was used for heterogeneous data. The Egger regression method or the Begg rank correlation method was used to evaluate the presence or absence of publication bias. ResultsA total of 10 articles (11 studies) were included in our study, among which 8 articles (9 studies) compared the effect of DAA versus the absence of anti-HCV therapy on the recurrence of HCC after curative treatment. There were 991 patients in DAA group and 808 patients in untreated group. The results of the meta-analysis showed that DAA reduced the recurrence rate of HCC after curative treatment in patients with HCV infection (hazard ratio ［HR］=0.42, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 0.28?0.36, P＜0.001). Three articles compared the effect of DAA versus interferon for the treatment of hepatitis C on the recurrence of HCC after curative treatment, with 267 patients in DAA group and 212 in interferon group, and the results of the meta-analysis showed that DAA and interferon had a similar effect on the recurrence rate of HCV-related HCC (HR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.64-1.15, P=0.298). ConclusionBoth interferon and DAA can significantly reduce the recurrence risk of HCV-related HCC after curative treatment, with no significant difference between them.

Objective:To explore the effect of short-term healthy behavior management on lung function, daily activities habits and exercise-induced emotions in patients with chronic bronchitis.Methods:From May to October 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 180 patients with chronic bronchitis admitted to the Department of Respiration, the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University. Patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table, with 90 cases in each group. Control group carried out routine nursing measures, and observation group implemented the healthy behavior management. We compared the lung function, daily activity habits and exercise-induced emotional changes of patients between two groups. SPSS 23.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.Results:Before intervention, there was no statistical difference in the total scores of lung function, daily activity habits and exercise-induced emotional changes of patients between two groups ( P>0.05) .After four weeks of intervention, forced vital capacity (FVC) , forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) of observation group were higher than those of control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=19.071, 4.480, 25.735; P<0.01) . The basal metabolism, average daily exercise volume and total energy expenditure of observation group after four weeks of intervention were higher than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.914, 10.478, 2.774; P<0.01) . After four weeks of intervention, the total scores of vitality stimulation, body calm, emotional input and exercise-induced emotions of observation group were higher than those of control group, and the physiological fatigue score was lower than that of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.986, 6.044, 4.849, 6.992, 7.544; P<0.01) . Conclusions:Short-term healthy behavior management can effectively improve the lung function of patients with chronic bronchitis, enhance the patient's daily activity ability, and have a certain impact on exercise-induced emotions.

Objective:To analyze the survival efficacy, prognostic factors and failure patterns of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) underwent postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) using modified clinical target volume (CTV) based on postoperative high-frequency recurrence regions, so as to provide reference for the further optimization of CTV of PORT.Methods:The patients with ESCC underwent radical operation in Comprehensive Cancer Center of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from April 28, 2014 to November 29, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with stage pT 3-4aN 0 or N +, who underwent PORT with modified CTV based on postoperative high-frequency recurrence regions, were included in the study. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate overall survival (OS) and locoregional recurrence free survival (LRFS) , adverse events of patients were evaluated, Cox proportional hazards model was used for univariate and multivariate survival analysis, and the failure patterns of patients after PORT were analyzed. Results:A total of 85 patients were included in this study, and the median follow-up time was 52.6 months. The median OS of the whole group was 74.1 months. The 1-year, 2-year and 3-year OS rates were 97.6%, 84.7% and 71.7% respectively. The median LRFS was not reached, and the 1-year, 2-year and 3-year LRFS rates were 92.9%, 78.6% and 71.5% respectively. The incidence of grade 3-4 adverse events was 17.6% (15/85) , mainly including lymphopenia, bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal reaction and skin reaction. Univariate analysis of OS after PORT showed that the degree of differentiation (set G1+G1-2+G2 group as the control group, G2-3+G3 group HR=4.19, 95% CI: 1.91-9.17, P<0.001; NA+basal-like group HR=4.16, 95% CI: 1.29-13.44, P=0.017) and postoperative stage ( HR=2.19, 95% CI: 1.09-4.39, P=0.030) were the influencing factors of OS. Cox multivariate analysis showed that the degree of differentiation was an independent prognostic factor for OS after PORT (set G1+G1-2+G2 group as the control group, G2-3+G3 group HR=5.24, 95% CI: 2.30-11.93, P<0.001; NA+basal-like group HR=4.83, 95% CI: 1.33-17.62, P=0.017) . The first failure patterns analysis showed that 39 cases (45.9%) had recurrence, among which, 22 cases (25.9%) had locoregional recurrence with the median onset time of 15.2 months after operation, 19 cases (22.4%) had distant metastasis with the median onset time was 14.1 months after operation, and 2 cases (2.4%) were mixed failure mode. Among the locoregional recurrence, 16 cases (72.7%) recurred in the radiation field. Among all the local recurrence sites, the lymph node drainage regions in the supraclavicular, upper middle mediastinum and upper abdominal perigastric/celiac artery trunk areas were the most common sites. Among the distant metastatic organs, lung, bone and liver metastases were the most common. Conclusion:Patients of ESCC with high risk of recurrence after radical esophagectomy have long survival time and high safety after PORT with modified CTV according to the high-frequency recurrence regions. It is worthy of further confirmation by multicenter, large sample and prospective clinical trials.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of a portable REF-XT01 uric acid meter in measuring blood uric acid concentration, and to determine whether the results of the uric acid meter could be used to guide the adjustment of uric acid-lowering drugs.Methods:1 551 subjects were enrolled from the Gout Clinical Medical Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University. The fasting venous blood was collected and the serum uric acid was measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer. Meanwhile, the capillary blood uric acid was measured by fingertip puncture using the REF-XT01 uric acid meter. Linear regression, intra-group correlation coefficient(ICC), and Bland-Altman plots were used to analyze the uric acid concentration correlation between the biochemical analyzer(sUA BA)and the uric acid meter(sUA UM). The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve)was conducted to evaluate whether sUA UM can be used as a reference for the gout patients to take uric acid-lowering drugs. Results:The regression analysis showed correlation between sUA BA and sUA UM, with the regression formula Y=0.875X+ 39.525( r=0.84, P<0.01)and the ICC was 0.829(95% CI 0.814-0.844, P<0.01). The Bland-Altman diagram showed a good consistence(the absolute deviation was-143.4-114.5 μmol/L, mean deviation was -14.4 μmol/L)between sUA BA and sUA UM. The sensitivity was 96.61%, specificity was 48.81%, and the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.926( P<0.01)when 300 μmol/L was defined as the detection threshold of the uric acid meter, the sensitivity was 90.98%, specificity was 66.78%, and the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.914( P<0.01)when 360 μmol/L was defined as the detection threshold of the uric acid meter. Conclusion:REF-XT01 uric acid meter is applicable for the adjustment of uric acid-lowering drugs for the gout patients, because of its high accuracy for the detection of uric acid.

Objective:To investigate the repeatability of corneal topographic parameters with the Pentacam HR in patients with keratoconus of different severity.Methods:A diagnostic test study was performed.A total of 120 eyes from 98 patients with subclinical keratoconus or keratoconus were enrolled at Henan Eye Hospital from January 2019 to March 2022.The patients were divided into subclinical keratoconus group, mild keratoconus group, moderate keratoconus group and severe keratoconus group, with 30 eyes in each group.An additional 30 eyes of 30 subjects undergoing refractive surgery were selected as a control group.Three consecutive Pentacam HR measurements were performed by the same clinician.The recordings included a total of 53 parameters in anterior corneal surface, posterior corneal surface, thickness, composite index, and corneal densitometry.The within-subject standard deviation (Sw), repeatability limit ( r) and tolerance index (TI) were calculated to evaluate the repeatability of the parameters between different groups.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Henan Eye Hospital (No.HNEECKY-2019[5]).All subjects were informed of the purpose and significance of the study and signed an informed consent form before enrollment. Results:Compared with the control group, the TI of the subclinical, mild, moderate and severe keratoconus groups were 54.71%(29/53), 66.04%(35/53), 90.57%(48/53) and 94.34%(50/53), respectively, higher than 0.31.The steep keratometry (Ks), the maximum keratometry (Kmax) of the anterior corneal surface, the anterior corneal radius of curvature, the flat keratometry (Kf) of the posterior corneal surface, the posterior corneal radius of curvature (PRC), the thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), the average densitometry for the anterior 120 μm in the 0-2 mm area (A.0-2 mm), average densitometry for the anterior 120 μm in the 2-6 mm area (A.2-6 mm), average densitometry for the central tissue in the 0-2 mm area (C.2-6 mm), average densitometry for the total cornea in the 0-2 mm area (T.0-2 mm) and average densitometry for the total cornea in the 2-6 mm area (T.2-6 mm) showed good repeatability in the subclinical and mild keratoconus groups (TI<0.31).Kmax Zonal Mean 3 mm, posterior corneal surface mean keratometry, central keratoconus index showed good repeatability in subclinical, mild and moderate keratoconus groups.Kmax Zonal Mean 4 mm and Kmax Zonal Mean 5 mm showed good repeatability in all groups (TI<0.31).Conclusions:For patients with subclinical and mild keratoconus, Kf of the posterior corneal surface, PRC and TCT are recommended to monitor disease progression.To monitor the condition of patients with moderate and severe keratoconus, we may focus on the detection of Kmax Zonal Mean 4 mm and Kmax Zonal Mean 5 mm.
