AIM: To analyze the factors influencing total corneal surgically induced astigmatism(SIA)following implantable collamer lens(ICL)implantation.METHODS:This prospective study enrolled 162 patients(162 eyes)who underwent ICL implantation at our hospital between July 2023 and January 2024. Based on preoperative assessment of anticipated postoperative residual astigmatism, different incisions were selected. Superior incision was selected for patients with expected residual astigmatism with the rule in 75 eyes, and temporal incision was selected for patients with expected residual astigmatism againist the rule in 87 eyes. Parameters including total corneal refractive power, incision length, internal ostium-to-visual axis distance, central corneal thickness, preoperative total corneal astigmatism, and corneal diameter were measured using the Pentacam anterior segment analyzer before and at 3 mo after surgery. Postoperative total corneal SIA was calculated based on the changes in total corneal refractive power. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to assess the influence of the above parameters on postoperative total corneal SIA.RESULTS:A total of 162 cases(162 eyes)that implanted with ICL were included in the analysis, and 8 cases were lost to follow-up, with a loss rate of 4.9%. Eventually 154 cases(154 eyes)completed the research. The superior incision group comprised 72 cases(72 eyes), including 17 males and 55 females, with a mean age of 25.96±6.17 years, while the temporal incision group comprised 82 cases(82 eyes), including 20 males and 62 females, with a mean age of 27.79±6.47 years. No significant difference in postoperative total corneal SIA was observed between the two groups [0.31(0.21, 0.49)D vs. 0.27(0.13, 0.485)D, P=0.159]. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that internal ostium-to-visual axis distance and preoperative total corneal astigmatism significantly influenced postoperative total corneal SIA in the superior incision group(P=0.001). The regression equation was: postoperative total corneal SIA=0.71-0.381×internal ostium-to-visual axis distance+0.16×preoperative total corneal astigmatism. No significant influencing factors for postoperative total corneal SIA were identified in the temporal incision group.CONCLUSION: During ICL implantation, the magnitude of total corneal SIA is comparable between superior and temporal incisions. For patients receiving a superior incision, the internal ostium-to-visual axis distance and preoperative total corneal astigmatism value can be used to quantitatively predict postoperative total corneal SIA to a certain extent, thereby aiding in the optimization of postoperative visual quality.

AIM: To quantitatively evaluate the vectorial effect of different incision locations on surgically induced astigmatism(SIA)following implantable collamer lens(ICL)implantation and to clarify the relative contributions of the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces to total corneal SIA.METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on who underwent ICL/toric ICL implantation between July 1, 2023 and January 1, 2024. Patients were divided into superior incision group and temporal incision group according to the expected postoperative residual astigmatism. Pentacam measurements were performed preoperatively and at 3 mo postoperatively to obtain total corneal refractive power and anterior and posterior corneal curvature radii. Anterior and posterior corneal surface powers and total corneal astigmatism were calculated. Thibos vector analysis was applied to decompose corneal astigmatism into orthogonal components J0 and J45, and the changes in J0(ΔJ0)were calculated for each surface. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to explore the associations of anterior surface ΔJ0, posterior surface ΔJ0, and incision location with total corneal ΔJ0.RESULTS: This study included 162 patients(162 eyes), with 75 patients 75 eyes in the superior incision group and 87 patients 87 eyes in the temporal incision group. Totally 154 patients(154 eyes)completed follow-up: 72 patients(72 eyes)in the superior incision group(17 males and 55 females, aged 25.96±6.17 y)and 82 patients(82 eyes)in the temporal incision group(20 males and 62 females, aged 27.79±6.47 y). In the superior incision group, the total cornea and anterior surface J0 shifted toward positive values(against-the-rule), with ΔJ0 of 0.146±0.108 D and 0.199±0.117 D, respectively, while the posterior surface J0 shifted toward negative values(with-the-rule), with ΔJ0 of -0.050±0.022 D. The temporal incision group showed the opposite trend. Multiple regression analysis showed an excellent model fit(adjusted R2=0.943), with anterior surface ΔJ0 as the main influencing factor(B=0.968, β=1.137, P<0.001)and posterior surface ΔJ0 also contributing independently and significantly(B=1.018, β=0.297, P<0.001). Incision location and its interaction terms with anterior and posterior surface ΔJ0 were not statistically significant(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Based on 3 mo postoperative followup, superior incisions induce a predominant withtherule SIA vector, while temporal incisions induce a predominant againsttherule SIA vector. Anterior surface ΔJ0 is the primary contributor to total corneal ΔJ0, and posterior surface ΔJ0 also demonstrates a statistically significant association.

Domestic management requirements for IIT were gradually improving, providing a basis for medical institutions to implement standardized management throughout the lifecycle of IIT, and achieve certain progress. However, there were still challenges in the departmental divisions, the unification of management standards, whole-process management and quality control, the scientific review, high-risk project management, and registration.Conclusions:Drawing on the excellent experience of domestic medical institutions, measures including identifying a primary responsible department, establishing unified supervision and inspection standards, and implementing a whole life cycle management may help overcome the challenges in IIT management and improve the quality and efficiency of IIT management.

Faced with the increasing demand for technological innovation, how to effectively carry out and regulate the export of medical-related scientific research data has become an urgent issue. The author reviewed the current requirements and status of data export in China and abroad, as well as the relevant requirements for medical data management in China, and introduced the practical experience of the first data compliance export case of medical field in China. In view of the main difficulties in the management of medical-related scientific research data export, such as the lack of multi-professional background members of the project team, the difficulty in writing professional documents, the relatively single template, the lack of personalized templates suitable for different professional field, and the need for homogenization of regulatory standards and requirements, it is proposed to rely on a qualified third-party platform in the form of entrusted business, adopt the optional mode under the general declaration template, establish unified regulatory standards, pay attention to the important data and national core data involved in the data export, pay attention to the ethical issues, and replace the original data with derivative data, and keep to " necessity principle" and " minimization principle", so as to provide reference for medical institutions and management departments to strengthen the standardized management and security guarantee of medical-related scientific research data export.

To meet China′s requirements for scientific and technological innovation and high-quality development in the new era, it is imperative to actively implement the innovation-driven development strategy and build high-level research hospitals. Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University has been working to build a research hospital since 2018. The hospital promoted discipline construction through the development mode of discipline clusters, made the research wards as a platform, adopted the " shared comprehensive service" mode to improve the quality and efficiency of clinical research, and strengthened talent cultivation through such key measures as a new talent recruitment system. The mode has proved successful in such aspects as improving the ranking of scientific and technological value of hospitals and disciplines, introducing high-level talents, and outputting scientific and technological achievements, supporting by research wards for other departments of the hospital, and improving the efficiency and quality of clinical trials. Such a mode can provide reference for general hospitals in building research hospitals.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of rubber band traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).Methods:A total of 49 patients with rectal endocrine tumor who underwent ESD at Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2016 to December 2019 were reviewed. Thirty-two patients who underwent traditional ESD from January 2016 to May 2018 were assigned to the non-traction group. Seventeen patients who underwent the operation with a rubber band as auxiliary traction from June 2018 to December 2019 were assigned to the traction group. Basic information, ESD procedure time, complications were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender or lesion size between the traction group and the non-traction group ( P>0.05). The ESD operation time of the traction group was significantly shorter than that of the non-traction group (13.76±5.71 min VS 22.99±10.32 min, t=-3.408, P=0.001). There were no postoperative complications in the traction group, but 3 cases of perforation occurred in the non-traction group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of perforation between the two groups ( P=0.542). Conclusion:Rubber band traction can safely improve the efficiency of ESD.

Objective To study the value of platelet/lymphocyte ratio(PLR)in predicting coronary artery lesions and their outcome in acute coronary syndrome(ACS)patients after PCI.Methods Three hundred and forty-four elderly ACS patients who underwent PCI and CAG in our hospital from May 2016to August 2018were divided into MACCE group(n=95)and MACCE-free group (n=249).They were further divided into high PLR group(n=247)and low PLR group(n=97) according to the ROC curve for PLR.Their clinical data were analyzed,and the prognostic threshold of PLR was determined according to the ROC curve for PLR and logistic regression analysis respectively.Results The number of smokers was significantly greater,the incidence of DM,serum LDL-C level,PLR and Gensini score were significantly higher in MACCE group than in MACCE-free group(P＜0.01).The area under the ROC curve for PLR in predicting the poor outcome in ACS patients after PCI was 0.898and 0.842respectively(95％CI:0.859-0.937,95％CI:0.794-0.891).The PLR was positively related with the Gensini score(r=0.654,P＜0.01).The incidence of MACCE was significantly higher in high PLR group than in low PLR group(78.35％ vs 7.69％,P＜0.01).High PLR was an independent risk factor for MACCE in elderly ACS patients after PCI(OR=2.527,95％CI:1.058-6.039,P=0.037).Conclusion PLR is related with MACCE in elderly ACS patients after PCI.

OBJECTIVETo study the reasons for the discrepancies in pathologic diagnosis of gastric dysplasia/early cancer in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) specimens, and how to cope with the discrepancies.

METHODSThe pathologic diagnoses in 60 cases of ESD specimens according to the three currently used classification systems (namely Western criteria, Japanese criteria and Vienna classification) were compared. The diagnostic discrepancies were analyzed.

RESULTSFifteen of the 17 cases diagnosed as low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia according to the Western criteria were revised as adenoma by the Japanese criteria. Amongst the 43 cases of gastric intramucosal adenocarcinoma diagnosed according to the Japanese criteria, 23 cases had concordant diagnosis by the Western criteria. While the diagnosis of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia/adenoma was basically similar irrespective of classification system used, there were significant differences in the interpretation of gastric early cancer.

CONCLUSIONSThe diagnostic discrepancies in the gastric dysplasia/early cancer are mainly related to the morphologic criteria applied in different classifications. In order to facilitate clinical and pathologic communication, a consensus using Vienna/WHO classifications, supplemented with Japanese system, is desirable.

Objective To investigate the relationship of carotid artery intima-media thickness(IMT) and blood pressure variation in patients with prehypertension. Methods Three hundred and ninety-two patients were selected as our subjects. Artery IMT was measured by Doppler ultrasonography. All patients were divided into carotid artery IMT group( n = 204 ),not carotid artery IMT group( n = 188 ) based on carotid IMT. Meanwhile,all patients were monitored by ambulatory blood pressure. Results (1)The indices of 24 h mean systolic blood pressure,systolic blood pressure variability and diastolic blood pressure variability in patients of carotid artery IMT group were(136. 85 ± 9. 67)mmHg,(4. 13 ± 0. 67)% ,(2. 97 ± 0. 45)% respectively, higher than those of Not carotid artery IMT group((121. 92 ± 6. 54)mmHg,(2. 64 ± 0. 86)% ,(2. 06 ± 0. 36)% ;t = 21. 08,5. 97,3. 32;P < 0. 05).(2)The rate of the carotid artery thickness increased with systolic blood pressure variability increasing( P = 0. 001). There were no significant correlations between rate of the carotid artery thickness and diastolic blood pressure variability,24 h mean diastolic blood pressure(P = 0. 435, 0. 126). The IMT thickening rate was higher when the average systolic blood pressure was greater(P = 0. 013). (3)Regression analysis indicated that carotid artery IMT was positively related with systolic blood pressure variability,high-sensitivity C-reactive protein,24 h mean systolic blood pressure,2-hour postprandial blood glouse. Conclusion Carotid artery IMT is independently associated with variation of blood pressure,especially with systolic blood pressure variability in prehypertension patients.
