Objective:To investigate the effect of "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode on risk factor control and medium-term prognosis improvement in patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:This was a intervention study. Patients with coronary heart disease who were admitted to the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2021 to January 2022 and successfully discharged after PCI were included. According to the different types of follow-up after discharge, patients were divided into the traditional follow-up group and the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode means that specialists, specialist managers in third-level A hospitals and general practitioners and health managers in basic hospitals were jointly responsible for post-discharge follow-up of PCI patients. Baseline clinical data were collected. The primary endpoints were the rate of compliance of coronary heart disease risk factor control at 12 months after surgery, the rate of secondary surgery, and the incidence of mid-term major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). Unplanned secondary PCI included symptom-driven secondary PCI and asymptomatic secondary PCI. MACCE includes myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure, stroke, major bleeding, all-cause death, and composite endpoints including these events.Results:A total of 2 181 patients were enrolled, including 1 097 patients in the traditional follow-up group and 1 084 patients in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. At baseline, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, discharge diagnosis, co-existing diseases, echocardiographic indexes, and coronary artery lesions between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in total PCI stent length, maximum internal diameter of stent, proportion of patients using drug balloon, proportion of patients with a planned second surgery during hospitalization, and discharge with drugs (all P>0.05). Twelve months after PCI, the reduction in HbA1c and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was greater in the "four-staff co-management " follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group (all P<0.05), and the rate of reaching the standard for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was higher than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.001), but there was no statistical significance between the two groups for blood pressure and blood glucose (all P>0.05). During the follow-up period, the proportion of symptom-driven second operation patients was lower in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P<0.001), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of asymptomatic second operation patients between the two groups ( P=0.191). The proportion of hospitalized patients with heart failure in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group was lower than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.029), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, massive hemorrhage, death and complex endpoint events between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode can effectively improve the control of risk factors and medium-term prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

AIM:To evaluate the effectiveness of EYESI binocular indirect ophthalmoscope simulation system as a training platform for fundus examination skills of general practitioner.METHODS:Prospective randomized study. A total of 40 general practitioners who received clinical ophthalmology training at Shenzhen Eye Hospital from January 2021 to December 2024 were selected and randomly divided into two groups by random number table method, with 20 cases in the study group and 20 cases in the control group. The study group was trained by EYESI binocular indirect ophthalmoscope simulation system and the control group was trained by conventional teaching. Training effects of the two groups were analyzed.RESULTS: The general information of the two groups was comparable. Through training with the EYESI binocular indirect ophthalmoscope simulator, the study group showed significant improvements in total examination and drawing scores compared to pre-training results(all P<0.001). Additionally, examination duration, retinal light exposure time, and drawing time were all significantly shorter than those before training(all P<0.001).The study group achieved significantly higher total examination and drawing scores than the control group during the EYESI binocular indirect ophthalmoscope simulator assessment(all P<0.001). Furthermore, examination duration, retinal light exposure time, and drawing time were all significantly shorter in the study group compared to the control group(all P<0.001). Moreover, ratings for the novelty of the training method and overall satisfaction with the training were significantly higher in the study group than in the control group(all P<0.001); while the perceived psychological stress during training was significantly lower in the study group(P<0.001).CONCLUSION:The EYESI binocular indirect ophthalmoscope simulaton system effectively enhances both the proficiency in fundus examination skills and overall training satisfaction among general practitioners.

Objective:To understand the current status, research hotspots, and future trends in the field of retinoblastoma (RB).Methods:Using the Web of Science Core Collection SSCI and SCI-Expanded as data sources, relevant RB literature from January 2015 to November 2024 was retrieved. The bibliometric analysis software CiteSpace 6.2.R6 was employed to perform visual analyses of countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, co-cited references, and keywords.Results:A total of 5 042 relevant publications were identified. Annual publication numbers in this field consistently exceeded 400, peaking at 565 in 2021. The United States contributed the highest number of publications, with 1 600 articles (31.73%). Among institutions, Harvard University ranked first with 167 publications (3.31%). Abramson DH of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center published the most papers (75). Nature (United Kingdom) received the highest citation count (2 349). The highest betweenness centrality was observed for the United States (0.14) among countries/regions, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (0.21) among institutions, and Berry JL of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (0.21) at the author level. Co-citation and keyword analyses revealed that RB research hotspots are shifting from a focus on basic molecular mechanisms, such as the cell cycle and RB protein, toward advanced therapeutic strategies, such as intra-arterial chemotherapy and nanoparticle-based drug delivery. Emerging keywords such as complexity, chemoresistance and carboplatin indicate that future studies will focus on optimising diagnosis and treatment. Conclusions:From 2015 to 2024, RB research displayed a sustained growth trend, with the United States and its institutions and scholars contributing the most publications. The research focus has shifted from the exploration of molecular mechanisms to the optimization of precise treatment strategies, among which the application of nanotechnology and the resolution of drug resistance mechanisms will become key breakthrough directions.

Fundus neovascularization is a significant cause of ocular diseases, mainly including retinal neovascularization and choroidal neovascularization. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy, though effective, has limitations such as a short half-life, non-responsiveness, and drug resistance. 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), a key regulator of glycolysis, affects the generation of pathological blood vessels by modulating the metabolism of vascular endothelial cells. Small molecule inhibitors targeting PFKFB3 protein have been confirmed in animal and cell models to significantly inhibit pathological angiogenesis, showing good therapeutic potential. However, most of them are still in the preclinical research stage. In the future, it is necessary to further investigate the mechanism of PFKFB3 gene, optimize the specificity and safety of the inhibitors, and explore the effects of combining them with existing therapies, so as to provide new strategies for the treatment of fundus neovascular diseases.

Objective To observe the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)for evaluating DeBakey Ⅰ aortic dissection involved renal artery.Methods Totally 137 patients with DeBakey Ⅰ aortic dissection involved renal artery were retrospectively enrolled,including 132 cases involved unilateral and 5 cases involved bilateral renal arteries.The opening of totally 274 renal arteries in bilateral kidneys were observed.Taken CT angiography(CTA)as reference standard,the renal artery opened in true lumen was considered as unaffected,while opened in false lumen or true-false lumen were both considered as affected.Relative CEUS manifestations were observed,and their value for evaluating involved renal artery or not were analyzed.Results CTA showed that 132 renal arteries opened in true lumens,90 opened in false lumens and 52 opened in true-false lumens.CEUS diagnosed 131 renal arteries opened in true lumens,111 opened in false lumens and 32 opened in true-false lumens,and the sensitivity for diagnosing DeBakey Ⅰ aortic dissection involved renal artery was 90.84％,81.08％and 90.63％,respectively.The consistency between CEUS and CTA for evaluating renal artery opened in true lumen or false lumen was good(Kappa=0.786).Logistic regression analysis showed that the time to peak(TTP)and peak intensity(PI)of time intensity curve(TIC)were both impact factors for differentiating renal artery opened in true lumen or false lumen,as well as true lumen or true-false lumen(both P＜0.05),while the area under the curve(AUC)of TIC was impact factor for differentiating renal artery opened in true lumen or false lumen(P＜0.05).The AUC of receiver operating characteristic curve of the combination of TTP,PI and AUC of TIC for differentiating renal artery opened in true lumen or false lumen,true lumen or true-false lumen and false lumen or true-false lumen was 0.703,0.686 and 0.493,respectively.Conclusion CEUS was helpful for evaluating DeBakey Ⅰ aortic dissection involved renal artery.

Objective:To compare the short-term efficacy between proximal femoral bionic nails (PFBN) and 3G Gamma nails in the fixation intertrochanteric femoral fractures in the elderly.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 78 elderly patients with intertrochanteric femoral fracture who had been admitted to Department of Trauma Surgery, The Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University from October 2021 to December 2022. There were 35 males and 43 females with an age of (76.0±7.9) years. By Evans classification: 6 cases of type Ⅰ, 21 cases of type Ⅱ, 24 cases of type Ⅲ, 23 cases of type Ⅳ, and 4 cases of type Ⅴ. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to their internal fixation methods: a PFBN group of 35 patients fixed by PFBN and a Gamma group of 43 cases fixed with 3D Gamma nails. The time from injury to operation, hospital stay, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, weight-bearing time, fracture healing time, and Harris hip score, visual analogue scale (VAS) and incidence of complications at 6 months after operation were compared between the 2 groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for (14.0±4.0) months. There were no significant differences between the PFBN and Gamma groups in operation time [(58.9±8.2) min versus (58.1±6.8) min], intraoperative blood loss [(138.0±24.9) mL versus(126.8±25.7) mL], hospital stay [(10.9±2.9) d versus (10.3±4.0) d],fracture healing time [(5.0±1.3) months versus (5.1±1.3) months], or good and excellent rate by the Harris hip score [82.9% (29/35) versus 76.7% (33/43)], VAS score [0(0, 1) points versus 1(0, 1) points], or incidence of complications at 6 months after operation [2.9% (1/35) versus 4.7% (2/43)] (all P>0.05). However, the complete weight-bearing time for the PFBN group was (5.3±1.2) weeks, significantly earlier than that for the Gamma group [(6.9±1.4) weeks] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the fixation of intertrochanteric femoral fractures in the elderly patients, both PFBN and 3D Gamma nails can achieve satisfactory short-term efficacy, but PFBN is more beneficial to the functional recovery of the hip joint because it leads to earlier complete weight-bearing time than 3D Gamma nails.
