AIM: To analyze changes in the anterior chamber angle structure in patients with implantable collamer lens with central-port(ICL V4c)implantation, and to investigate their associations with preoperative anterior segment anatomical parameters.METHODS: Retrospective case study. Patients with myopia or myopia combined with astigmatism who underwent ICL V4c implantation in the Refractive Surgery Center of the Department of Ophthalmology, the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between July 2024 and November 2024 were recruited. Preoperative and postoperative uncorrected visual acuity, best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber angle(ACA), white-to-white distance(WTW), anterior chamber depth(ACD), angle to angle distance(ATA), horizontal sulcus-to-sulcus distance(HSTS), vertical sulcus-to-sulcus distance(VSTS),crystalline lens rise(CLR), pupil diameter(PD), iris thickness at 750 μm from the scleral spur(IT750),maximal iris thickness(ITM), iris curvature(I-Curv), and iris cross-sectional area(I-Area), angle opening distance(AOD750), thetrabecular-iris angle(TIA750)and the trabecular-iris space area(TISA750)in the temporal, nasal, superior, and inferior directions,as well as the vault at various postoperative time points were measured.RESULTS: The study involved 40 patients(79 eyes)with myopia or myopia combined with astigmatism who underwent ICL V4c implantation(10 males and 30 females)with the mean age of 24.73±3.79 y. Compared with preoperative measurements, at 1 mo postoperatively, the AOD750, TIA750, and TISA750 parameters at the four angles(temporal, nasal, superior, and inferior)all showed a significant reduction(P<0.01). Statistically significant differences in vault were observed at postoperative 1d(0.49±0.1), postoperative 1 wk(0.43±0.14), and postoperative 1 mo(0.41±0.14)(all P<0.001). Correlation analysis indicated that the postoperative state of the anterior chamber angle was jointly influenced by anterior chamber parameters(ACD, ATA, HSTS、VSTS), iris morphology(I-Area, IT750), pupil size(PD), and surgical factors(ICL size, early vault), and that the combination of influencing factors varied across different orientations. Regression analysis showed that ACD was positively correlated with all postoperative anterior chamber angle parameters(P<0.05). IT750 exhibited negative correlations with the temporal and inferior angles(P<0.05). I-Area was positively correlated with temporal AOD750 and TISA750(P<0.05), and PD had negative correlations with temporal TIA750 and nasal AOD750(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Postoperative anterior chamber angle narrowing is a common phenomenon after ICL V4c implantation. The degree of change exhibits a significant correlation with multiple preoperative anterior segment anatomical parameters. Preoperative comprehensive assessment of ACD, PD, and IT750 may facilitate the evaluation of the risk of postoperative angle changes and the enhancement of surgical safety.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of TINAVI orthopaedic robot-assisted pedicle screw placement and free-hand pedicle screw placement in the treatment of lumbar spondylolysis in adolescents.Methods:The clinical data of 65 adolescents with lumbar spondylolysis who underwent surgery in Honghui Hospital, Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2021 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 20 males and 45 females with an age of (21.5 ± 4.3) years. The distribution of spondylolysis included 2 cases of L 3, 13 cases of L 4, 50 cases of L 5. According to the Meyerding classification of spondylolisthesis degree, there were 52 cases of grade Ⅰ, 5 cases of grade Ⅱ and 8 cases without spondylolisthesis, all of which were complicated with intractable back pain. All patients were treated with double segmental pedicle screw reduction and autogenous iliac bone graft. According to different screw placement methods, they were divided into TINAVI orthopedic robot-assisted screw placement group (robot group, 32 cases) and free-hand screw placement group (free-hand group, 33 cases). CT was re-examined after operation. The satisfactory rate of pedicle screw placement and cortical penetration rate were calculated according to Neo standard, and the superior articular process invasion rate of screw was calculated by Babu standard. The operation time, intra-operative blood loss, post-operative drainage, hospital stay, satisfactory rate of screw placement, cortical puncture rate and superior articular process invasion rate were compared between the two groups, and the operative complications and bony fusion time of isthmus were recorded. The visual analogue score (VAS) of lumbar pain, the score of Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and the score of Oswestry dysfunction (ODI) were compared between the two groups before operation, 1 month after operation and 1 year after operation. Results:There was no significant difference in preoperative general data between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients completed the operation successfully, anatomical reduction was achieved in patients with spondylolisthesis. No serious operative complications such as nerve and vascular injury occurred during surgery. The operation time in the robot group was longer than that in the free-hand group: (82.6 ± 6.8) min vs. (60.5 ± 7.1) min. There was no significant difference in intra-operative blood loss, post-operative drainage and hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). A total of 128 screws were placed in the robot group, and 132 screws were placed in the freehand group. There were significant differences in the satisfaction rate of screw insertion, cortical penetration rate and articular process invasion rate between the two groups: 96.9%(124/128) vs. 90.9%(120/132), 3.1%(4/128) vs. 9.1%(12/132), 2.3%(3/128) vs. 7.6%(10/132) ( P<0.05). One year after surgery, the isthmus of all patients fused well, the reduction was not lost, the intervertebral disc had no degeneration, and the instrumentation was removed. The VAS, JOA score and ODI score of the two groups at 1 month and 1 year after operation were significantly better than those before operation ( P<0.05). The VAS of the robot group was lower than that of the free-hand group at 1 month and 1 year after operation: (1.6 ± 0.8) points vs. (2.7 ± 0.9) points, (0.3 ± 0.1) points vs. (1.5 ± 0.2) points, the difference is statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in JOA score and ODI score between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:TINAVI orthopaedic robot assisted screw placement and free-hand screw placement can both effectively treat lumbar spondylolysis in adolescents. Compared with free-hand screw placement, TINAVI orthopedic robot assisted screw placement can further improve the accuracy and improve patients′ lumbodorsal pain.

Objective:The study investigated the full-time Clinical Research Coordinators (CRCs) working in hospitals on their current working situation and explored affecting factors to provide suggestions for a professional and systemic clinical research workforce establishment in municipal medical institutions.Methods:A questionnaire survey was designed for CRCs in municipal hospitals in Shanghai, descriptive and one-way cross-tabulation analysis were conducted, using t-test for continuous numerical variables, rank-sum test for count variables and chi-square test for categorical variables.Results:Totaling 177 CRCs in 9 municipal hospitals in Shanghai answered the questionnaire. The average age of the respondents was 28.56±7.299 years old. Their professional background was mainly nursing and pharmacy (139/177, 87.53%), and bachelor degree (114/177, 64.41%). Averagely worked 2.50±1.632 years, the average number of research projects undertaken by CRC was 3.45±2.179, and the average number of cumulative projects involved was 8.72±9.341. The CRCs employed by hospitals mainly undertook Investigator-Initiated clinical Trial/Research projects (IITs) (26/36, 72.22%), while the CRCs employed by SMO companies mainly undertook Industry-Sponsored Clinical Trial (IST) projects (96/141, 68.09%). 85.88% (152/117) of CRCs held GCP certificates valid within three years, and the proportion of CRCs employed by hospitals held GCP certificates was lower than that of SMO companies ( P<0.05). Among the CRCs employed by hospitals, 23 (63.89%) said they had no position or were not clear about their position; The CRCs in SMO companies were mainly primary and intermediate (χ 2=84.119, P<0.05). The average number of research projects undertaken by CRC was 3.45±2.179, and the average number of cumulative projects involved was 8.72±9.341. Conclusions:With the development of clinical research, the full-time specialized CRCs in medical institutions mainly have 2 sources: from SMO/CRO companies or self-employment by medical institutions. In general, there are still problems in the CRC talent team as unclear entry standards, insufficient, lack career positioning planning, large mobility, imperfect training system, and imperfect promotion mechanism. It is suggested to unify occupational access standards and set specialty in colleges or universities. Strengthen post-service education and training system, establish multi-party collaborative training mechanism, standardize the assessment and evaluation, improve the job title promotion system, to promote the rapid development of CRC team.

Objective:This study aims to systematically compare the differences in severity, clinical manifestations, and treatment processes between patients with foodborne and iatrogenic botulism, thereby providing evidence-based support for clinical diagnosis and management.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on botulism patients admitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 2010 and July 2024. The foodborne group was diagnosed according to the WS/T 83-1996 standard. The iatrogenic group required a documented history of type A botulinum toxin injection and typical clinical manifestations. Individuals with comorbid neurological disorders or incomplete clinical data were excluded. The severity of poisoning was classified into three groups: mild, moderate, and severe, according to the "Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for Botulism". SPSS 26.0 software was used to statistically analyze the distribution of poisoning severity between groups and to compare clinical symptoms and course indicators across severity grades.Results:A total of 220 botulism patients were included in this study, comprising 86 cases of foodborne poisoning (39.1%) and 134 cases of iatrogenic poisoning (60.9%). There was a significant difference in the distribution of poisoning severity between the two groups ( P=0.001), the proportion of severe poisoning was significantly higher in the foodborne group. Analysis of clinical symptoms indicated that, among patients with mild poisoning, the incidence of nausea and vomiting was significantly higher in the foodborne group, compared to that in the iatrogenic group (44.0% vs. 16.4%, P=0.006). In patients with moderate poisoning, the iatrogenic group exhibited a significantly higher prevalence of hoarseness (60.5% vs. 35.7%, P=0.041) and neck weakness (53.5% vs. 17.9%, P=0.003) compared to the foodborne group. Conversely, the foodborne cohort experienced a notably longer interval before seeking medical attention when compared to their iatrogenic counterparts (2.25 d vs. 1.50 d, P=0.003). Among severe poisoning patients, the foodborne group exhibited a higher likelihood of experiencing fever (51.5% vs. 25.0%, P=0.044) and abdominal distension accompanied by constipation (69.7% vs. 41.7%, P=0.034) when compared to the iatrogenic group. Furthermore, the foodborne cohort demonstrated a significantly shorter incubation period (1.00 d vs. 2.45 d, P<0.001), an extended length of hospitalization (22.0 d vs. 16.00 d, P=0.001), and a prolonged duration of antitoxin therapy (14.00 d vs. 9.50 d, P<0.001), alongside a markedly higher total dosage administered (315 900 U vs. 163 300 U, P<0.001) compared to their iatrogenic counterparts. Conclusions:Statistically significant differences exist between food-borne and iatrogenic botulism. Food-borne botulism is characterized by acute onset, greater severity, and a prolonged course, predominantly featuring systemic symptoms and gastrointestinal dysfunction. In contrast, iatrogenic botulism primarily manifests with ocular and oropharyngeal muscle symptoms and is generally less severe.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of Ubiquitin Carboxy-Terminal Hydrolase-L1(UCH-L1)and Netrin-1 in the serum of patients with spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage(ICH)complicated with cerebral edema,and to analyze their impacts on neurological deficits and prognosis.Methods A retrospec-tive analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 173 patients with spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University from September 2023 to January 2025.The serum levels of UCH-L1 and Netrin-1 were measured within 24 hours after the onset.They were divided into three groups according to the size of the cerebral edema volume(CEV):Group A(CEV<10 mL),Group B(CEV 10～30 mL),and Group C(CEV>30 mL).Pearson's correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum expression levels of UCH-L1 and Netrin-1 with hemorrhage,volume of cere-bral edema,distance of midline shift,Modified Edinburgh-Scandinavian Stroke Scale(MESSS)score,Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score,and Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score.Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors for poor prognosis.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of UCH-L1 and netrin-1 for poor prognosis.Results Significant differences were observed in the serum levels of UCH-L1 and netrin-1 among patients with different volumes of cerebral edema(P<0.05).The larger the volume of cerebral edema,the higher the expression levels of UCH-L1 and netrin-1.The serum levels of UCH-L1 and Netrin-1 were significantly higher in the poor prognosis group compared to the good prognosis group(P<0.05).The serum levels of UCH-L1 and Netrin-1 were positively correlated with MESSS score,hemorrhage volume,cerebral edema volume,distance of midline shift,and mRS score(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with GCS score(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that both UCH-L1 and netrin-1 were independent risk factors for poor neurological prognosis in basal ganglia hemorrhage patients(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis indicated that both markers had important predictive value for poor prognosis.The AUC for serum UCH-L1 level predicting poor prognosis was 0.77[95%confidence interval(CI):0.69～0.85,P<0.01],with a sensitivity of 84.9%and a specificity of 50.6%.The AUC for serum Netrin-1 level predicting poor prognosis was 0.89(95%CI:0.85～0.94,P<0.01),with a sensitivity of 82.1%and a specificity of 68.7%.Conclusions Serum UCH-L1 and Netrin-1 are differentially expressed in patients with spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage complicated with different volumes of cerebral edema.They are independent risk factors for poor prog-nosis and are important predictors of neurological function prognosis in these patients.

Objective To study the influencing factors of intradialytic hypotension(IDH)in diabetic maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients,and to provide references for clinical prevention of IDH quality control.Methods A total of 200 diabetic patients from four hemodialysis centers in Beijing from March 2022 to September 2022 were collected as the research objects.According to the definition of IDH[systolic blood pressure during hemodialysis≤90 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)or systolic blood pressure reduction during dialysis≥30 mmHg],the patients were divided into IDH group(frequency of hypotension events during dialysis≥30%during 7 months of follow-up)and non-IDH group.Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of IDH.receive operating characteristic curve(ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of each influencing factor for IDH.Results Univariate analysis showed that compared with non-IDH group,IDH group had higher systolic blood pressure,higher blood glucose and lower serum albumin before dialysis(P<0.05).There were more patients with orthostatic hypotension in the IDH group than in the non-IDH group(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pre-dialysis systolic blood pressure,orthostatic hypotension and serum albumin were the influencing factors of IDH(P<0.05).ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of pre-hemodialysis systolic blood pressure for IDH.The area under the ROC curve was 0.787(95%CI:0.720-0.854,P<0.001),the threshold of IDH predicted by the Jorden index was 153 mmHg,the sensitivity was 75.5%,and the specificity was 75.4%.Conclusion Pre-hemodialysis systolic blood pressure,blood albumin and postural hypotension are independent factors of IDH in diabetic patients.In order to predict the occurrence of IDH,the pre-hemodialysis systolic blood pressure threshold was 153 mmHg.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Jiawei Jisheng Shenqi Decoction in improving the hypoxic microenvironment and antagonizing liver cirrhosis.Methods In vivo experiments were conducted using a rat model of carbon tetrachloride(CCL4)-induced liver cirrhosis.Rats were divided into normal,model,colchicine,JWJSSQ low-dose,JWJSSQ medium-dose,and JWJSSQ high-dose group.Pathological changes in liver tissues in each group were examined by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)and Masson staining,changes in serum liver function were detected using test kits,levels of hyaluronic acid(HA),laminin(LN),procollagen Ⅲ(PC Ⅲ),and collagen typeⅣ(COL4)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and protein expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),Notch1,Jagged1,and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)were detected by Western blot.In vitro experiments were conducted in HSC-T6 cells,and the optimal concentration of CoCl2(100 μ mol/L,200μmol/L,400 μmol/L,600 μmol/L and 800 μmol/L)in the cultured cells and the optimal concentration of drug-containing serum(5％,10％,15％,20％)were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay.The migration ability of cells in each group was detected by scratch testing,and changes in the apoptosis rates were determined by flow cytometry.Protein expression levels of HIF-1α,Notch1,Jagged1,α-SMA,matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP9),and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1(TIMP-1)were detected by Western blot.Results In the in vivo experiments,liver swelling,inflammatory cell infiltration,collagen deposition,and the appearance of pseudolobules were significantly increased in the model group compared with those in the normal group.Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),HA,LN,PCⅢ,and COL4 were significantly increased and albumin(ALB)was significantly decreased in the model group,while liver levels of HIF-1α,Notch1,Jagged1,and α-SMA proteins were significantly increased(P＜0.01).Liver swelling,inflammatory cell infiltration,and collagen deposition were significantly reduced in each treatment group compared with those in the model group,and the degree of fibrosis was reduced.Serum ALT,AST,HA,LN,PCⅢ,and COL4 were significantly decreased and ALB was significantly increased,while liver levels of HIF-1α,Notch1,Jagged1,and α-SMA proteins were also significantly decreased to varying degrees(P＜0.05).In the in vitro experiments,hypoxia promoted HSC-T6 migration and reduced apoptosis,increased the protein expression levels of HIF-1α,Notch1,Jagged1,α-SMA,and TIMP-1,and reduced the expression levels of MMP9(P＜0.01).Serum containing Jiawei Jisheng Shenqi Decoction inhibited HSC-T6 migration,promoted HSC-T6 apoptosis,lowered the expression of HIF-1α,Notch1,Jagged1,α-SMA,and TIMP-1 proteins,and enhanced the expression of MMP9 protein(P＜0.01).The inhibitory effect of Jiawei Jisheng Shenqi on HSC-T6 cell activation was reversed by the HIF-1α agonist dimethyloxalylglycine.Conclusions Jiawei Jisheng Shenqi Decoction can improve the hypoxic microenvironment via the HIF-1α/Notch pathway,thereby exerting an anti-liver cirrhosis effect.
