Objective To explore the related risk factors of osteosarcopenia (OS) in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to evaluate their predictive value. Methods We selected 409 elderly patients with T2DM from our hospital between June 2021 and December 2024 as the study subjects, and divided them into an OS occurrence group and a non-occurrence group based on whether they were diagnosed with OS. Results Among the 409 elderly patients with T2DM included, 93 were diagnosed with OS, yielding a prevalence rate of 22.73%. Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant association between lumbar spine BMD and T-scores with age, history of previous fractures, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP), osteocalcin (OC), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). Gender (OR=0.193), Body Mass Index (BMI) (OR=0.254), history of previous fractures (OR=8.883), FPG (OR=0.543), Total Cholesterol (TC) (OR=3.684), High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) (OR=86.024), PINP (OR=0.818), and OC (OR=0.526) are identified as influential factors for the occurrence of OS in elderly patients with T2DM. The combined prediction of these variables yields a sensitivity of 96.5%, a specificity of 97.8%, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.992 for the occurrence of OS in elderly patients with T2DM, indicating an excellent predictive performance. Conclusion The following factors—gender, BMI, history of previous fractures, FPG, TC, HDL-C, PINP, and OC—are influential in the occurrence of OS among elderly patients with T2DM. Formulating intervention measures based on these influencing factors can provide assistance in preventing and treating the occurrence of OS.

Modern cataract surgery has completely moved beyond the traditional vision-restoring model and has fully entered a new era of refractive cataract surgery(RCS)centered on precise refractive correction. Its core objective is to provide patients with personalized visual experiences characterized by full-range, clear, and comfortable vision. Currently, although diagnostic and therapeutic technologies for RCS are rapidly evolving, there remain many bottlenecks in the precise management of the entire perioperative process that urgently need to be addressed. Preoperatively, the measurement consistency among ocular biometry devices based on different detection principles remains poor, and systematic measurement errors cannot be completely eliminated. Moreover, the individualized selection of intraocular lenses(IOLs)relies heavily on surgeons' clinical experience, lacking a standardized quantitative decision-making framework, which makes it difficult to achieve precise personalized matching. Intraoperatively, the quality of continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis is affected by multiple factors such as ocular anatomical characteristics and surgical proficiency, and its stability cannot be reliably ensured. Various intelligent surgical navigation systems are compromised by intraoperative ocular conditions, and their clinical performance fails to meet theoretical expectations. At the postoperative stage, existing IOL optical designs and materials have inherent limitations. The longterm prevention and control of posterior capsule opacification(PCO)remains a core factor restricting patients' long-term high-quality visual outcomes. This article systematically reviews the precise diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and core bottlenecks across the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative stages of RCS. It further explores frontier technological directions—including cross-device error compensation models, artificial intelligence-assisted decision-making, preoperative VR-based visual simulation, and the construction of intelligent surgical ecosystem platforms—to delineate targeted solutions and optimization pathways. This review aims to provide references and insights for the standardized clinical implementation, technological innovation, and future research endeavors in precision diagnosis and treatment of RCS.

Phacoemulsification represents the mainstream, efficient, and safe surgical modality for cataract treatment, and continuous technological advances have further improved the safety profile of this procedure in ordinary patients. However, patients with high myopia feature inherent anatomical abnormalities of the eyeball, leading to a fundamental incompatibility with conventional phacoemulsification protocols. Such patients face a markedly elevated risk of both anterior and posterior segment perioperative complications, posing a persistent clinical challenge in cataract surgery. Focusing on the unique ocular anatomical characteristics associated with high myopia, this review systematically summarizes the distinct traumatic effects and pathological impacts of phacoemulsification on the anterior and posterior ocular segments of affected patients. Moving beyond generalized discussions of routine cataract management, it consolidates clinical evidence specific to this special-population patients, aiming to provide refined references for perioperative risk prevention and control in cataract patients complicated with high myopia.

ObjectiveTo identify the direct target proteins for the anti-obesity effect of resveratrol （Res） via chemical proteomic analysis and systematically explore the molecular mechanisms by which Res inhibits lipid accumulation in adipocytes from mitochondrial function regulation， adipocyte browning， and inflammation inhibition， thus providing new targets and experimental evidence for the prevention and treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases. MethodsThe cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was adopted to detect the safe and effective doses （7.5， 15， 30 μmol·L^-1） of Res for treating 3T3-L1 cells based on the cell survival rate. After being induced to differentiate into mature adipocytes， the cells were assigned into the blank ［treated with dimethyl sulfoxide （DMSO）］ group and the Res （7.5， 15， 30 μmol·L^-1） groups and treated for 48 h. Oil red O staining and total triglyceride （TG） content were assessed to measure lipid accumulation in adipocytes. Target protein identification of Res was conducted through IAA-P-based chemical proteomics combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry. Target proteins of Res were validated by cellular thermal shift assay （CETSA） combined with Western blot analysis. Furthermore， the expression of browning markers peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α （PGC-1α） and mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 （UCP1）， as well as the target proteins NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit S8 （NDUFS8） and high-mobility group protein B1 （HMGB1） were determined by Western blot. The ATP assay kit was used to measure the ATP concentration. Mitochondrial biogenesis was characterized with MitoTracker Green， on the basis of which the regulatory effect of Res on mitochondrial function was analyzed. The level of the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， on the basis of which the anti-inflammatory effect of Res on adipocytes was evaluated. ResultsCompared with the control group， Res demonstrated safety and efficacy within the range of 7.5-30 μmol·L^-1， without significantly affecting cell viability. Compared with the control group， different concentrations of Res reduced lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes （P<0.01）， promoted the expression of NDUFS8 （P<0.01）， increased the ATP concentration and the protein levels of UCP1 and PGC-1α， elevated the level of TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionNDUFS8 and HMGB1were identified as the target proteins of Res in mitigating obesity. Res promotes mitochondrial biogenesis to induce the browning of 3T3-L1 adipocytes via targeting NDUFS8 and it inhibits the TNF-α-mediated inflammatory signaling via targeting HMGB1， thus inhibiting lipid accumulation and ameliorating obesity.

AIM: To compare the changes in corneal epithelial thickness(CET)after small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK).METHODS: A total of 187 patients(187 eyes)who underwent either SMILE or FS-LASIK at Urumqi Aier Eye Hospital between December 2022 and November 2023 were collected. The patients were divided into SMILE group and FS-LASIK group according to surgical methods. The CET of the patients was measured by optical coherence tomography(OCT)system before surgery and at 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo postoperatively.RESULTS: Changes in corneal epithelial thickness(△CET)in the central, paracentral, and mid-peripheral regions were compared at 6 mo postoperatively. The SMILE group was characterized by the most significant thickening in the central area and the least thickening in the mid-peripheral area; while the FS-LASIK group was characterized by the most significant thickening in the paracentral area and the least thickening in the mid-peripheral region. At 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo postoperatively, within the 0-7 mm corneal area, the △CET for both the SMILE and FS-LASIK groups was correlated with the preoperative spherical equivalent.CONCLUSION: Within 6 mo postoperatively, both SMILE and FS-LASIK showed a similar trend in epithelial thickening but with distinct characteristics. The change in corneal epithelial thickness for both procedures was positively correlated with the preoperative diopter.

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) mutation is a rare subtype of mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with advanced NSCLC carrying the EGFR ex20ins mutation tend to have poor responses to traditional EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), chemotherapy, and immunotherapy, leading to a poor clinical prognosis. Significant progress has been made in the development of new drugs targeting the EGFR ex20ins mutation. The research on new drugs targeting EGFR ex20ins mutations has made significant progress. The main ones include new EGFR-TKIs (such as sunvozertinib, mobocertinib, and furmetinib, etc.), bispecific antibodies (such as amivantamab, JMT101, and GB263T, etc.), and emerging drugs such as AUY922. These agents have demonstrated promising efficacy in clinical trials, improving the objective response rate and progression-free survival of patients, and are expected to improve overall survival. An in-depth analysis of the mechanism of action and clinical trial progress of these novel targeted drugs for EGFR ex20ins-mutated NSCLC can offer new therapeutic strategies for patients with EGFR ex20ins-mutated NSCLC.

Objective To compare the postoperative enhanced recovery outcomes of lobectomy performed under non-intubated video-assisted thoracic surgery (NIVATS) versus intubated video-assisted thoracic surgery (IVATS). Methods Computerized searches were performed in the following databases: China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP Information, China Biomedical Literature Database (CBMdisc), Web of Science, Clinicaltrials.gov, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, and PubMed. We collected randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies comparing NIVATS and IVATS. The search period extended from the inception of each database to April 1, 2023. Two independent researchers screened the literature and assessed study quality. Results A total of 14 studies were included, comprising 4 RCTs, 7 retrospective cohort studies, and 3 propensity score matching studies, involving 1 840 patients. Meta-analysis results indicated that, compared to IVATS, NIVATS was associated with significantly shorter operative time [MD=–13.39, 95%CI (–20.16, –6.62), P<0.001], shorter length of hospital stay [MD=–0.81, 95%CI (–1.39, –0.22), P=0.005], shorter chest tube duration [MD=–0.73, 95%CI (–1.36, –0.10), P=0.02], shorter postoperative anesthesia recovery time [MD=–20.34, 95%CI (–26.83, –13.84), P<0.001], and shorter time to oral intake after surgery [MD=–5.68, 95%CI (–7.63, –3.73), P<0.001]. Furthermore, NIVATS showed a lower incidence of postoperative airway complications [OR=0.49, 95%CI (0.34, 0.71), P<0.001] and less total chest tube drainage volume [MD=–251.11, 95%CI (–398.25, –103.98), P<0.001], all contributing to significantly accelerated postoperative enhanced recovery for patients. Conclusion NIVATS is a safe and technically feasible anesthesia method in thoracoscopic lobectomy, which can to some extent replace IVATS.

AIM: To observe the changes of corneal densitometry(CD)and higher-order aberrations after small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE), and to explore their correlations and influencing factors.METHODS: Prospective study. A total of 62 high-degree myopia and compound myopic astigmatism patients(62 eyes)who underwent SMILE in Urumqi Aier Eye Hospital from December 2022 to November 2023 were collected. The CD, root mean square of corneal higher-order aberrations(RMS HOA), spherical aberration, vertical coma, horizontal coma, and corneal epithelial thickness(CET)of the patients were measured before surgery, and at 1 d, 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery, respectively.RESULTS:There were 4 patients lost to follow-up during the period, all due to failure to attend scheduled reexaminations. The number of complete and valid cases was 58 eyes. The CD in the central and paracentral regions of the anterior, middle, and total layer of the cornea increased significantly on the first day after surgery(all P<0.003). At 6 mo after surgery, there was a slight but statistically significant decrease in the CD of the central and paracentral regions of the anterior and the total anterior layer(all P<0.003). Compared with the preoperative baseline values, the RMS HOA, spherical aberration, and vertical coma significantly increased at 6 mo after surgery(all P<0.003), while the change in horizontal coma was not statistically significant. Compared with the preoperative baseline values, the CET in the central, paracentral, and peripheral regions of the cornea, as well as the total average CET in the 0-7 mm range of the cornea increased at 6 mo after surgery(all P<0.003). At 1 d after surgery, CD of the anterior layer and total layer in the central region of the cornea were positively correlated with the CET in the central region(rs=0.327, rs=0.250, all P<0.05). At 6 mo after the surgery, the CD of the middle layer and posterior layer in the central corneal region were negatively correlated with the preoperative spherical equivalent and the change of RMS HOA(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The anterior CD decreases at 6 mo after SMILE for high myopia correction, and there is a certain correlation between the changes in CD and some clinical parameters.
