Objective: To investigate the current status of screening myopia and anxiety symptoms and associated factors among junior and senior high school students in Beijing, so as to provide evidence for myopia prevention and control and the improvement of mental health among adolescents. Methods: From September to November 2024, a total of 17 245 junior high schools, general senior high schools and vocational high schools from 16 districts in Beijing were enrolled by stratified cluster sampling method. Questionnaire surveys and vision screening were conducted to collect data on anxiety symptom and screening diagnosed myopia. The Chi square test was used to analyze the co-occurrence of myopia and anxiety symptoms, and binary Logistic regression analysis was adopted to explore the related factors of the co-occurrence. Results: The overall detection rate of cooccurrence screening myopia and anxiety symptoms among Beijing junior and senior high school students was 6.00%. The detection rate was higher in females ( 7.15 %) than in males (4.90%), higher in urban areas (6.65%) than in suburban areas (5.41%), and higher in general senior high school students (7.61%) than in vocational high school students (6.46%) and junior high school students (4.65%). All differences were statistically significant ( χ 2=38.49, 11.66, 54.88, all P <0.01). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that female gender ( OR =1.43), general senior high school ( OR =1.60), vocational high school ( OR =1.59), daily sugar sweetened beverage intake ( OR =1.66), participation in academic extracurricular classes in preschool ( OR =1.30), electronic screen use for more than 2 hours per day ( OR =1.21), and insufficient sleep ( OR =2.41) were associated with an increased risk of co-occurring screening diagnosed myopia and anxiety symptoms (all P <0.05). Conclusions The co-occurrence of screening diagnosed of myopia and anxiety symptoms among junior and senior high school students in Beijing is common. Female gender, senior high school students, and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors are all risk factors for the co-occurrence of myopia and anxiety symptom. Comprehensive intervention measures can be adopted to simultaneously promote vision protection and mental health among junior and senior high school students.

Objective:To explore the application effect of continuous intravenous infusion of lidocaine on patients undergoing transnasal pituitary tumor resection.Methods:Ninety patients undergoing transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection under general anesthesia from May 2022 to January 2025 were selected.The participants were randomly divided into two groups:a control group and a lidocaine group,with 45 patients in each group.Before starting anesthesia,the lidocaine group received intravenous injection of 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine,followed by continuous intravenous injection at a rate of 2 mg/(kg·h)throughout the entire surgical process.The control group received an equal amount of physiological saline.The other anesthesia regimens and drugs for the two groups of patients were consistent,and all anesthesia related drugs were stopped from infusion at the end of the surgery.Compare the intraoperative mean arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate changes between two groups,evaluate visual analog scale(VAS)scores at different time points,postoperative opioid dosage and recovery level,and incidence of adverse reactions.Results:There was a certain degree of fluctuation in MAP and heart rate in both groups during the operation,with the lidocaine group showing a smaller level of fluctuation.There was no significant difference in MAP and heart rate levels between the two groups at T1 and T6 times(P＞0.05),while the MAP and heart rate levels in the lidocaine group were higher than those in the control group at T2,T3,T4,and T5 times(P＜0.05);Compared with the control group,there was no statistically significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups at T0 time(P＞0.05).The VAS scores of the two groups showed an upward trend at T1,T2,T3,and T4 time,and a downward trend at T5 time.However,the VAS scores of the lidocaine group were lower than those of the control group at T1,T2,T3,T4,and T5 time(P＜0.05);The dose of remifentanil administered via intravenous pump during the lidocaine group,the duration of first postoperative ventilation,and the length of hospital stay were all lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05);The incidence of nausea,vomiting,and coughing related adverse reactions in the lidocaine group was lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Lidocaine assisted intravenous anesthesia can promote stable hemodynamic fluctuations during pituitary adenoma resection surgery,reduce postoperative pain,decrease opioid dosage,shorten hospital stay,and reduce adverse reactions such as coughing,nausea,and vomiting.

Objective To evaluate the effects of transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)on left ventricular reverse remodeling(LVRR)and outcomes in patients with mixed aortic valve disease(MAVD)and predominant aortic stenosis(AS).Methods Patients undergoing TAVR at our center between January 2020 and December 2022 were enrolled consecutively.Propensity score matching(PSM)(1∶1 ratio)was used to reduce selection bias.Transthoracic echocardiography(TTE)was used to monitor left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and other structural parameters over time.The study outcome was a composite of cardiovascular death and rehospitalization due to cardiovascular causes.Linear mixed-effects models and logistic regression were utilized for comparing echocardiographic changes across groups and identifying independent risk factors for no-LVRR,respectively.Results After PSM,126 patients were included.MAVD group exhibited larger structural parameters(left ventricular end-systolic/end-diastolic diameter and volume,left ventricular mass index)and a lower left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)(all P＜0.05).However,more pronounced improvements in left ventricular structure and hemodynamics were observed during follow-up.Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the left ventricular mass index(LVMI)was an independent predictor of left ventricular reverse remodeling(LVRR)after TAVR,whereas persistent moderate or greater mitral regurgitation(MR)and paravalvular leak(PVL)significantly reduced the incidence of LVRR.During a median follow-up period of 23 months,a total of 31 endpoint events occurred,and there was no statistically significant difference in long-term prognosis between the two groups(Log-rank P=0.330).Conclusions Compared to patients in the AS group,those in the MAVD group exhibited more severe left ventricular remodeling before TAVR.However,more significant LVRR was observed during postoperative follow-up.Additionally,the long-term prognosis was comparable between the two groups.

Aim To explore the protective effect of icariin on the damage of tight junctional function of Sertoli cells in naturally aging mice and the related mechanism.Methods 15-month-old C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into three groups:aging model group,low-dose and high-dose icariin treatment group(5 and 20 mg·kg-1).Another 1-month-old C57BL/6J male mice were considered as adult control group(n=10).The mice in adult control group and aging model group were given the vehicle(0.5％sodi-um carboxymethyl cellulose solution)by intragastric administration,while the mice in icariin-treated groups were given different concentrations of icariin,respec-tively.After continuous administration of icariin for three months,the testes and epididymis were immedi-ately removed,weighed,and the organ index was calcu-lated.Sperm viability and sperm concentration in epi-didymis were measured.The morphological changes of testes were observed by HE staining.The ultrastructur-al changes of tight junctions of Sertoli cells were ob-served by transmission electron microscopy.The ex-pression levels of tight junction-related proteins ZO-1,Occludin,and Claudin11 of testicular Sertoli cells were detected by Western blot.The expression and localiza-tion of ZO-1,Occludin,Raptor,Rictor,p-70S6K,and p-rps6 were detected by immunofluorescence.Results Compared with the aging model group,icariin signifi-cantly increased testicular weight and its index,and ep-ididymal index,improved sperm viability and increased sperm concentration in naturally aging mice.In addi-tion,icariin improved the degeneration of testicular morphology and the damage of ultrastructure of Sertoli cell tight junction with aging.Furthermore,Western blot results showed that icariin up-regulated the expres-sion of ZO-1 and Occludin,but had no significant effect on the expression of Claudin 11.Immunofluorescence assay showed that icariin up-regulated the expression of Rictor,and down-regulated the expression of p-70S6K,p-rps6 and Raptor.Conclusions Icariin improves the tight junction damage of Sertoli cells in naturally aging mice,and its mechanism may be related to restoring the balance between mTORC1 and mTORC2.

Objective To develop an objective and precise prognostic model for assessing severity and prognosis in elderly patients with community-acquired pneumonia(CAP)admitted to the emergency department.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on elderly patients with CAP admitted to Department of Emergency,Minhang Hospital,Fudan University between Jun 2018 and Dec 2020.With the primary outcome being the 30-day in-hospital mortality rate of elderly CAP patients,four systemic inflammatory response markers,including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio(MLR),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)were evaluated using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses.The predictive performance of different scoring systems was compared.Results A total of 421 elderly CAP cases were enrolled.The results of the multivariate Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that NLR was an independent risk factor for elderly inpatients with CAP.We combined NLR with the existing CURB-65 score for joint optimization to construct a scoring system or a clinical prognosis model,by quantifying and assigning optimal cut-off value of 11.4 for NLR,and established the NLR+CURB-65 score.The ROC curve was constructed to compare the areas under the curve of the three different scoring systems(NLR,CURB-65,and NLR+CURB-65).The area under the curve of the NLR+CURB-65 score was significantly higher than that of the CURB-65 score.Based on the optimal cut-off value of 3 for NLR+CURB-65 score,the patients were stratified into high-risk group(n=188)and low-risk group(n=233).The K-M survival curve was utilized and indicated that compared with high-risk group,low-risk group had a lower mortality rate and a higher discharge rate.Conclusion For elderly emergency hospitalized patients with CAP,the combination of NLR and CURB-65 score showed high predictive value for assessing disease severity and prognosis.
