ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Myopia has become a significant eye health problem, which is thought to result from the complex interactions of genetic and environmental factors. This review focuses on two types of hereditary retinal diseases caused by mutations in photoreceptor genes, including rod-cone cell dystrophy(retinitis pigmentosa)and cone dysfunction syndromes(achromatopsia, blue cone monochromatism and Bornholm eye disease). It systematically explores the intrinsic connection between these diseases and the myopia phenotype, and elaborates on the core mechanisms by which pathogenic genes such as RPGR and OPN1LW/OPN1MW, which cause defects in ciliary structure and protein transport and interfere with the visual signal pathway, jointly induce choroidal thinning and scleral remodeling, ultimately driving the elongation of axial length and the occurrence of myopia. By tracing the association of photoreceptor gene mutations with myopia, this article provides a new perspective for in-depth understanding of the genetic mechanism of myopia and is of great significance for the development of early risk warning and targeted intervention strategies.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current situation of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in multicenter clinical research across 10 contracting medical institutions in Guangdong Province, analyze existing issues and propose improvement recommendations, thereby promoting the standardized management of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in medical institutions. MethodsData from 381 multicenter clinical studies conducted in these 10 medical institutions from January 24 to October 31, 2024, were collected. Text visualization was performed using Python and the WordCloud library, and statistical analyses were conducted with SPSS 25.0. ResultsOf the 381 studies investigated, industry-sponsored clinical trials (ISTs) accounted for 51.71%, while investigator-initiated clinical trials (IITs) constituted 48.29%. The proportions of ethical committees serving as primary reviewers and collaborative reviewers were 33.33% and 66.67%, respectively. The confirmation methods of mutual recognition outcomes were primarily expedited reviews (50.66%) and meeting reviews (49.34%), and no cases of “direct confirmation” were found. The Chi-square test revealed statistically significant differences in review confirmation methods based on project type (χ²=14.851, P<0.001) and ethics committee role (χ²= 69.435, P<0.001). The frequency distribution trend of the contingency table showed that IST projects and primary ethics committees preferred to employ meeting review (58.88% and 79.53% respectively, both higher than the average level of 49.34%), while IIT projects and the collaborative ethics committees more frequently utilized expedited review (60.87% and 65.75% respectively, both higher than the average level of 50.66%). ConclusionThe confirmation methods of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in multicenter clinical research are significantly associated with the role of the ethics committee and the type of project. It is recommended to improve management systems, enhance information construction and personnel training, as well as clarify mutual recognition responsibilities and strengthen supervision. This aims to ensure review quality while improving mutual recognition efficiency, thereby safeguarding the rights and interests of research participants.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) in rats with primary graft dysfunction after lung transplantation. Methods Twenty-four male Lewis rats were randomly divided into donor and recipient groups, with 12 rats in each group. The recipients were further divided into 3 groups: blank control group, negative control group, and treatment group, with 4 rats in each group. The color, size and texture of the transplanted lungs were observed 72 h after lung transplantation. The ventilation status and progression of consolidation in the transplant lungs of rats in each group were evaluated by micro-CT. Plasma, transplant lung tissue and alveolar lavage fluid samples of recipient rats were collected. The wet/dry ratio of lung tissue was measured to evaluate the degree of pulmonary edema. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to evaluate the degree of lung tissue damage. Terminal deoxyribonucleic acid transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining was used to evaluate cell apoptosis. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in lung tissue was detected, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels in plasma and alveolar lavage fluid. Results The appearance of the transplant lungs in the negative control group was significantly different from that of the autologous lungs, while the transplant lungs in the treatment group were almost identical in color to the autologous lungs compared to the blank control group. Compared with the negative control group, the treatment group showed reduced alveolar exudate and more intact airway epithelial cell structure. No alveolar exudate was observed in the blank control group, and the structure of the airways and alveoli remained normal. The treatment group had lower apoptosis rate of airway epithelial cells, lung tissue wet/dry ratio, and MPO activity compared to the negative control group (all P < 0.05). The levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the treatment group were lower than those in the negative control group, while the level of IL-10 was higher than that in the negative control group and the blank control group (all P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of cytokines in plasma among each group (all P > 0.05). Conclusions UC-MSC may effectively alleviate the severity of primary graft dysfunction in rats by reducing the apoptosis rate of cells in lung tissue and inhibiting inflammatory responses.

With the development of science and technology, electronic devices have become an inevitable part of our daily life and work. There has been an increase of interest in the use of various video display terminals(VDT). The ocular surface is the first barrier of the visual system to resist the damage of the external environment. In recent years, the number of patients with dry eye has consistently increased with the excessive use of VDT. Blue light produced by VDT, with wavelengths ranging from 400 to 500 nm, has a high energy in visible light. Therefore, blue light may also be an important risk factor for dry eye. In particular, the outbreak of COVID-19 has left people worldwide suffering from increased blue light, which promotes further research into dry eye caused by blue light emitted from VDT. In this review, we summarize the recent studies on the role of blue light produced by VDT in dry eye to provide reference for future related research.

OBJECTIVE To assess the safety profile of sintilimab in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS The data of patients with cholangiocarcinoma from January 1st, 2021 to December 31st, 2022 were collected and divided into control group (29 cases) and observation group (18 cases) based on different medication regimens. Patients in the control group were treated with Gemcitabine hydrochloride for injection+Cisplatin for injection or Oxaliplatin for injection, the observation group was treated with Sintilimab injection based on the control group. Patients in each group underwent blood routine, liver and kidney function, biochemical and other examinations before and after each treatment cycle to observe the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. The correlation of adverse drug reactions with drugs was evaluated with Naranjo’s scale. RESULTS The correlation between blood toxicity and drug use was deemed “probable” in both groups; however, the observation group exhibited a significantly higher score, indicating a stronger correlation. In the control group, hepatotoxic reactions were classified as “suspicious” whereas in the observation group, they were categorized as “probable”. The correlation of gastrointestinal symptoms between the two groups was considered “possible”. Systemic symptoms, skin toxicity, musculoskeletal toxicity, endocrine toxicity and renal toxicity were all classified as having a “suspicious” correlation with drug use. The total incidence of blood toxicity in the observation group was significantly higher than control group (P=0.014). There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidences of hepatotoxic, gastrointestinal symptoms, systemic symptoms, skin toxicity, musculoskeletal toxicity, endocrine toxicity, renal toxicity, or the incidence of grade 3 or higher blood toxicity, hepatotoxic between the two groups (P>0.05). For the patients experiencing adverse drug reactions, the symptoms were alleviated following drug discontinuation or symptomatic supportive treatment. No fatalities occurred during the treatment period. CONCLUSIONS Sintilimab combined with chemotherapy may significantly increase the risk of blood toxicity in patients with cholangiocarcinoma, especially thrombocytopenia, but the adverse reactions are within a controllable range, and the overall safety is good.
