Objective:To compare the changes in spherical equivalent (SE) and axial length (AL) between children with axial myopia and refractive myopia.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted.A total of 1 738 students from grades 1 to 6 were recruited from two consistent 9-year schools in the Binhai New Area of Tianjin using cluster random sampling.Visual acuity, refractive status, and ocular biological parameters were measured from February to May in 2018 and 2021.Participants were categorized into subgroups as follows: low, moderate, and high myopia based on SE; longer AL group and shorter AL groups based on AL; and steeper cornea and flatter cornea groups based on corneal curvature radius (CCR). Myopic children were further classified into the following groups: axial myopia (longer AL and flatter cornea), refractive myopia (shorter AL and steeper cornea), mixed myopia (longer AL and steeper cornea), and non-axial non-refractive myopia (shorter AL and flatter cornea). Changes in SE (ΔSE) and AL (ΔAL) at the end of the follow-up period were compared among the different classification groups.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital (No.2020KY-39). Written informed consent was obtained from the guardians of all participants.Results:The ΔSE in the longer AL group was (-1.57±1.52)D, which was significantly greater than (-1.17±1.47)D in the shorter AL group ( t=3.99, P<0.01). The ΔAL in the steeper cornea group was (0.92±0.50)mm, which was significantly greater than (0.86±0.54)mm in the flatter cornea group ( t=-2.12, P=0.04). Among children aged 10-12 years, males, and the low myopia, SE progression was faster in those with longer AL compared to shorter AL, with statistically significant differences ( t=2.66, 3.31, 3.90; all P<0.05). In children aged 10-12 years, AL growth was faster in the longer AL group than in the shorter AL group, with a statistically significant difference ( t=-1.29, P=0.04). Among females and the low myopia, AL growth was faster in those with steeper corneas than in those with flatter corneas, with statistically significant differences ( t=-3.22, -2.43; both P<0.05). Refractive myopia had a smaller ΔSE than axial myopia and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Within the low myopia, SE progression was greater in axial myopia than in refractive myopia, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Among myopic children, those with longer axial lengths exhibit faster SE progression, while those with steeper corneas show faster axial elongation.Among children with low myopia, axial myopia is associated with a greater risk of SE progression than refractive myopia.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of biliary system diseases complicated by severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) and the risk factors.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 159 SAP patients admitted to the Department of Pancreatic and Biliary Surgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2019 to October 2024. There were 105 male cases, 54 female cases;aged (42.3±10.8)years (range:20 to 71 years). Grouping was performed according to the presence or absence of concurrent acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) and biliary stricture. There were 58 cases in the AAC group,including 40 males and 18 females;aged (43.8±10.6) years (range:28 to 71 years);101 cases in the non-AAC group,including 64 males and 37 females;aged (41.5±10.8) years (range:20 to 64 years);there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of admission total bilirubin,Balthazar-CTSI score,fasting time,and the proportions of concurrent shock and sepsis (all P<0.05);the time from onset of SAP to diagnosis of AAC( M (IQR)) was 10.5 (13.3) days (range: 3 to 34 days). There were 15 cases in the biliary stricture group,including 13 males and 2 females;age (46.5±10.0) years (range:33 to 63 years);141 cases in the non-biliary stricture group,including 89 males and 52 females;age (41.9±10.8) years (range: 20 to 71 years); there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the proportions of infected pancreatic necrosis,pancreatic head necrosis,and lower extremity venous thrombosis (all P<0.05);the time from the onset of SAP to the diagnosis of biliary stenosis in patients with biliary stenosis was 2.0 (3.0) months (range: 1 to 19 months). Univariate analysis was performed using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test,or Fisher′s exact probability method,and variables with P<0.05 in univariate analysis were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic and predictive value of the multivariate logistic regression model for AAC and biliary stricture. Results:There were statistically significant differences in fasting time,Balthazar-CTSI score,admission total bilirubin,and the proportions of concurrent shock and sepsis between the AAC group and non-AAC group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that admission total bilirubin ( OR=1.033,95% CI: 1.010 to 1.058, P=0.004),Balthazar-CTSI score ( OR=1.276,95% CI: 1.036 to 1.572, P=0.022),fasting time ( OR=1.127,95% CI: 1.044 to 1.216, P=0.002), and sepsis ( OR=4.033, 95% CI: 1.419 to 11.462, P=0.009) were independent risk factors for AAC complicated by SAP. The area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve was 0.820 (95% CI: 0.752 to 0.888). There were statistically significant differences in the proportions of infected pancreatic necrosis,pancreatic head necrosis,and lower extremity venous thrombosis between the biliary stricture group and non-biliary stricture group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that infected pancreatic necrosis ( OR=7.376,95% CI:1.566 to 37.750, P=0.012) and pancreatic head necrosis ( OR=3.898,95% CI:1.180 to 12.877, P=0.026) were independent risk factors for biliary stricture complicated by SAP. The AUC of the ROC curve was 0.806 (95% CI:0.715 to 0.898). Conclusions:AAC typically occurs in the early stage of SAP,and biliary stricture usually occurs in the late stage of SAP. Admission total bilirubin,Balthazar-CTSI score,fasting duration,and concurrent sepsis are independent risk factors for AAC complicating SAP. Infected pancreatic necrosis and pancreatic head necrosis are independent risk factors for biliary stricture complicating SAP.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system for fresh subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to include 10 patients with fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2024 to July 2024. There were 7 males and 3 females with an age of (45.0±14.3) years and an interval from injury to surgery of (7.9±3.7) d. All the patients were treated by minimally invasive reduction which was assisted by our self-designed intelligent robot, and internal fixation with intramedullary nails. The operation duration, intraoperative reduction duration, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency were recorded. The reduction effect was evaluated by calculating the differences between preoperative planning and postoperative CT reconstruction (i.e., the differences in femoral shaft length and in rotation angle). The hip functional recovery was assessed by Harris hip function Scoring.Results:The mean operation time was 200.0 (161.3, 217.5) min, the reduction time (83.0±35.5) min, the intraoperative blood loss (290.0±110.1) mL, and the intraoperative fluoroscopy 18.5 (9.0, 19.3) times. In all patients, the difference in femoral shaft length was (2.4±1.4) mm, and the difference in rotation angle 5.1°±3.0°. All patients were followed up for (8.2±2.0)months. All the fractures got united at the last follow-up. Their Harris hip function score was (83.3±4.1) points.Conclusion:Our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system is feasible and effective in the surgery of fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur, because the robot system can complete the autonomous planning of reduction approaches before surgery and assist fracture reduction under real-time monitoring with three-dimensional images, leading to fine outcomes.

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes and costs in arthroscopic repair of small and medium-sized supraspinatu tendon tears between double-pulley suture-bridge (DPSB) and traditional suture bridge (SB).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted at Department of Joint Surgery, The Second Hospital Affiliated to Hengyang Medical School to analyze the data of 26 patients with small and medium-sized supraspinatus tendon tears who had been treated by SB repair from May 2018 to December 2020 (SB group) and those of 35 patients with small and medium-sized supraspinatus tendon tears who had been treated by DPSB repair from January 2021 to December 2022 (DPSB group). There were 61 patients in the 2 groups, including 44 males and 17 females, with an age of (59.1±7.5) years. The left shoulder was affected in 26 patients and the right shoulder in 35 patients. The tear size was small in 25 cases and medium in 36 ones. The total number of anchors used, total anchoring costs, and surgical time were recorded and compared between the 2 groups. Visual analogue scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) score and shoulder range of motion were used to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the 2 groups before surgery and at the last follow-up. Comparisons were made within and between the 2 groups. Tendon integrity was assessed using MRI or ultrasound at 3, 6, 12 months or at the last follow-up.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). DPSB and SB groups were followed up for (28.1±3.5) and (27.1±1.8) months, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between DPSB group and SB group in surgical time or total number of anchors ( P>0.05). The total costs of anchoring in DPSB group [(6,028.6±173.4) yuan] were significantly lower than those in SB group [(13,257.1±554.2) yuan] ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the anterior flexion, abduction, external rotation and internal rotation of the shoulder, as well as VAS pain score, ASES score and UCLA score, were significantly better in both DPSB group and SB group than their preoperative values ( P<0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences between DPSB group and SB group ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference either in tendon retear between DPSB group (2 cases) and SB group (1 case) ( P>0.05). No such complication as wound infection or nerve damage was found in either group. Conclusions:In arthroscopic repair of small and medium-sized supraspinatu tendon tears, both DPSB and SB techniques can achieve satisfactory and comparable clinical outcomes. However, DPSB leads to lower total costs of anchoring.

Pediatric urological non-Hodgkin lymphoma is relatively rare.When a single renal or ureteral tumor with multiple lymph node or bone metastases is present, it is very easy to be misdiagnosed as urinary tumor with metastasis, resulting in unnecessary radical nephrectomy. This paper reports two cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma presenting with single urinary nodules. Case 1 was diagnosed with a 4.5cm tumor in the right kidney due to fever and fatigue. CT and PET-CT showed multiple bone destruction and lymph node metastasis. Renal biopsy was performed and ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma was diagnosed. Chemotherapy was effective for 6 months. Case 2 was diagnosed with left hydronephrosis due to intermittent low back pain for 2 weeks. Ultrasound examination revealed ureteral dilation with left hydronephrosis and low echo occupying of the lower ureter. The patient had sudden blurred vision before surgery. MRI examination revealed space occupying in the right optic nerve frame, and PET-CT found multiple bone, lymph nodes and nerve invasion. A lymph node biopsy was performed and Burkitt lymphoma was diagnosed. After 6 months of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the tumor shrank significantly.
