AIM: To compare the postoperative clinical outcomes of two diffractive extended depth-of-focus intraocular lenses(IOLs), the AMEUH and the Tecnis Symfony IOL.

METHODS:This prospective cohort, multicenter study enrolled patients with cataract who underwent cataract phacoemulsification with IOL implantation at three hospitals between October 2024 and June 2025. Patients were divided into the AMEUH group and the ZXR00 group according to the implanted IOL. The AMEUH group included patients implanted with diffractive extended depth-of-focus IOL, and the ZXR00 group included patients implanted with the Tecnis Symfony IOL. At 6 mo postoperatively, ocular biometric parameters, photopic uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(UIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity(UNVA), corrected distance visual acuity(CDVA), distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity(DCIVA), and distance-corrected near visual acuity(DCNVA); mesopic CDVA, DCIVA, and DCNVA, defocus curves, manifest refraction, contrast sensitivity, adverse visual symptoms, spectacle independence, patient satisfaction, and intraocular pressure were compared between the two groups.

RESULTS:A total of 83 patients(83 eyes)were included in this study, including 31 males(31 eyes)and 52 females(52 eyes), with a mean age of 63.18±10.30 y. The AMEUH group included 41 patients(41 eyes), aged 67.00(60.00, 72.00)y, including 13 males and 28 females. The ZXR00 group included 42 patients(42 eyes), aged 62.00(57.50, 69.00)y, including 18 males and 24 females. The 77 patients completed 6 mo postoperative follow up, with 6 patients lost to follow up(3 from the AMEUH group and 3 from the ZXR00 group). There were no significant differences in ocular biometric parameters between the two groups postoperative 6 mo(all P>0.05). No significant differences were observed in photopic UDVA, UIVA, UNVA, CDVA, and DCIVA, or in mesopic CDVA and DCIVA between the two groups(all P>0.05). However,photopic and mesopic DCNVA in the AMEUH group were significantly better than in the ZXR00 group(both P<0.05). The effective depth-of-focus in the AMEUH group was increased by 0.5 D compared with the ZXR00 group. Significant differences were observed in manifest refraction between the two groups(P<0.05). Under specific lighting conditions and spatial frequencies, contrast sensitivity in the AMEUH group was significantly better than in the ZXR00 group(all P<0.05). The incidences of glare, halos, and blurred vision in the AMEUH group were all significantly lower than in the ZXR00 group(all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in spectacle independence for distance, intermediate, and near vision, or in patient satisfaction for distance and intermediate vision between the two groups(all P>0.05). However, patient satisfaction for near vision in the AMEUH group was significantly higher than in the ZXR00 group(P<0.05).

CONCLUSION:The diffractive extended depth-of-focus IOL AMEUH further extends the depth-of-focus through a higher-order aspheric optical design based on a diffractive design, providing comparable efficacy to the Symfony IOL in improving distance and intermediate vision. Meanwhile, benefiting from its higher add power, it provides superior near visual performance, and reduces spectacle dependence. The AMEUH IOL is associated with a lower incidence of postoperative adverse visual symptoms, as well as favorable safety, and high patient satisfaction.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib-based therapy in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced breast cancer based on real-world data, and to explore factors associated with prognosis. Methods A total of 102 patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer who received pyrotinib at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, were included retrospectively from January 1, 2019, to January 31, 2024, and prospectively from February 1, 2024, to November 30, 2025. Follow-up was conducted until March 31, 2026. Clinical and follow-up data of the patients were collected, and survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method. Prognostic factors were analyzed through multivariable Cox regression and logistic regression. Results Among the 102 patients, the median follow-up duration was 31.3 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.9 months, the median overall survival (OS) has not been reached (estimated to be 64.8 months), and the objective response rate (ORR) was 35.29%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that lung metastasis (HR＝2.562，P＝0.006), third-line and subsequent treatment (HR＝3.857，P＝0.010), and pyrotinib monotherapy (HR＝3.682，P＝0.015) were associated with shorter PFS. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS)≥2 (HR＝16.948，P＜0.001) and third-line and subsequent treatment (HR＝3.958，P＝0.034) were associated with shorter OS. No associated factors related to ORR were found. Regarding safety, diarrhea was the most common adverse event, occurring in 74.51% of patients. Conclusions In real-world clinical practice, pyrotinib-based therapy demonstrated clinical efficacy and manageable safety in patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer. Lung metastasis, pyrotinib monotherapy, ECOG PS≥2, and pyrotinib administration in multiple lines of therapy may affect patient prognosis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the quality of clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus statements on knee osteoarthritis （KOA） based on the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ （AGREE Ⅱ）， thus providing a new perspective for clinical selection as well as guideline development and updating. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for KOA-related guidelines and consensus statements published from November 1， 2019 to December 31， 2025. The databases and platforms searched included CNKI， VIP， Wanfang Data， PubMed， Web of Science， the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence （NICE）， SinoMed， Yimaitong， and relevant official websites. Two researchers independently screened the literature， and four researchers used AGREE Ⅱ to score the included documents and completed the quality appraisal after reaching a unified understanding. Subgroup analyses were further performed according to developing organization， document type， medical approach， funding status， and region of development， and longitudinal comparisons were conducted by year of publication. ResultsA total of 23 guidelines and consensus statements were included. The standardized scores of the six AGREE Ⅱ domains， from the highest to the lowest， were clarity of presentation ［（70.36±8.13）%］， scope and purpose ［（67.46 ± 11.44）%］， editorial independence ［（64.50±20.01）%］， rigor of development ［（62.24±15.26）%］， stakeholder involvement ［（55.73±10.29）%］， and applicability ［（53.89±13.17）%］. In terms of overall recommendation， 6 documents were rated as grade A and 17 as grade B. Stratified analyses showed that professional organizations scored higher than comprehensive organizations. The overall scores of traditional Chinese medicine/integrative medicine and Western medicine guidelines （or consensus statements） were similar. Guidelines scored higher than consensus statements. The overall scores were similar between documents with reported funding and those without reported funding. International guidelines scored higher than domestic guidelines. Longitudinal comparisons showed that the largest number of documents was published in 2021. The overall scores were higher in 2021—2022， and some domain scores declined in 2023—2024. Overall， the quality of recent guidelines and consensus statements for KOA showed slight fluctuations， without a clear linear trend. ConclusionThe included guidelines and consensus statements for KOA can generally serve as references for clinical practice. However， the quality across domains remains uneven， and stakeholder involvement and applicability are still weak domains. Future guideline development and updating should further improve methodological standardization and transparency in reporting.

BACKGROUND:Cervical rotation-traction manipulation is effective and safe in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy,and has been widely used in clinical work.However,its effects on the biomechanics of cervical vertebra and intervertebral disc and the area of intervertebral foramen have not been systematically clarified. OBJECTIVE:Based on the finite element analysis technique,a relevant research and analysis were carried out to provide digital evidence for the mechanism of effect of cervical rotation-traction manipulation in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy. METHODS:The CT image data of a volunteer with no neck diseases were selected as the finite element model material at its left-handed physiological limit position.The initial construction of the finite element model was completed by Mimics 19.0 software,Geomagic Studio 2013 software,Hypermash 14.0 software,and ANSYS Workbench 2020 R2 software,respectively.Based on the literature,the grid division of cervical structure and the assignment of elastic modulus and elastic coefficient were completed.Based on the previous work of the team,the mechanical effects of cervical rotation-traction manipulation were simulated on the model.Effects of cervical rotation-traction manipulation on the mechanical parameters of each vertebral body and intervertebral disc in C3-T1 segment and on the cervical lateral foramen area were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)During cervical rotation-traction manipulation,the stress of bone structure was significantly higher than that of soft tissue such as intervertebral disc.(2)When operating the technique,the stress at the top of each cervical vertebra was higher,the stress at the bottom was lower,and the stress at the facet joint and transverse process was lower.The stress at the top of the intervertebral disc was lower,the stress at the bottom was higher,but the highest point of the intervertebral disc stress was outside the top.(3)In addition,after loading the lifting force,the projected area of the C6/C7 intervertebral foramen increased significantly compared with that before loading.(4)It is indicated that the cervical rotation-traction manipulation has the mechanical characteristics of changing the stress structure of the cervical spine itself,and can expand the C6/7 intervertebral cervical foramen area on the opposite side of the patient's cervical rotation,so as to achieve the purpose of treating cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.

Objective: o develop an onset risk prediction nomogram for patients with homocysteine-type (H-type) hypertension (HTH) based on pulse diagram parameters to assist early clinical prediction and diagnosis of HTH. Methods: Patients diagnosed with essential hypertension and admitted to Shanghai Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Shanghai Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from July 6th 2020 to June 16th 2021, and from August 11th 2023 to January 22nd 2024, were enrolled in this retrospective research. The baselines and clinical biochemical indicators of patients were collected. The SMART-I TCM pulse instrument was applied to gather pulse diagram parameters. Multivariate logistic regression was adopted to analyze the risk factors for HTH. RStudio was employed to construct the nomogram model, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration curve (bootstrap self-sampling 200 times), and clinical decision curve were drawn to evaluate the model’s discrimination and clinical effectiveness. Results: A total of 168 hospitalized patients with essential hypertension were selected and divided into non-HTH group (n = 29) and HTH group (n = 139). Compared with non-HTH group, HTH group had a lower body mass index (BMI), and higher proportions of male patients and drinkers (P < 0.05). The ventricular wall thickening (VWT) could not be determined. The proportions of left common carotid intima-media wall thickness (LCCIMWT) and serum creatinine (SCR) were higher in HTH group (P < 0.05). The pulse diagram parameter As was significantly higher, and H4/H1 and T1/T were lower in HTH group (P < 0.05). Gender, alcohol consumption, serum creatinine, and the pulse diagram parameter H4/H1 were identified as independent risk factors for HTH (P < 0.05). The nomogram’s area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.795 [95% confidence interval (CI): (0.706 6, 0.882 8)], with a specificity of 0.724 and sensitivity of 0.799. After 200 times repeated bootstrap self-samplings, the calibration curve showed that the simulated curve fits well with the actual curve (x2 = 9.5002, P = 0.301 9). The clinical decision curve indicated that the nomogram’s applicability was optimal when the threshold for predicting HTH was between 0.38 and 1.00. Conclusion The nomogram model could be valuable for predicting the onset risk of HTH and pulse diagram parameters can facilitate early screening and prevention of HTH.

Objective:To study the resistance of Aedes albopictus to commonly used insecticides in Hangzhou, and to investigate the polymorphism distribution characteristics of voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) and acetylcholinesterase (AchE) 1 (Ace-1) genes in Aedes albopictus in the region, providing a scientific basis for control of Aedes albopictus in Hangzhou. Methods:From May to June 2023, Aedes albopictus larvae and pupae were collected from residential areas across divided different urban areas by directions in Hangzhou. They were reared in the laboratory, and their resistance to malathion, propoxur, pyrethroid insecticides (permethrin, deltamethrin, and beta-cypermethrin) was evaluated using the World Health Organization-recommended adult mosquito contact tube method. The 24 h mortality rates of adult mosquito of 98% - 100% was susceptible, 80% - < 98% was suspected resistance, < 80% was resistant. Genomic DNA was extracted from adult Aedes albopictus, and mutations in the VGSC and Ace-1 genes were detected through PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing. Results:The 24 h mortality rates of adult Aedes albopictus exposed to 0.5% malathion, 0.05% propoxur, 0.4% permethrin, 0.03% deltamethrin, and 0.08% beta-cypermethrin in Hangzhou were 100% (75/75), 96.00% (72/75), 41.43% (29/70), 17.33% (13/75), and 32.86% (23/70), respectively. A total of 146 surviving Aedes albopictus were tested for VGSC gene mutations at diagnostic doses of pyrethroid insecticides. Among them, 6 Aedes albopictus (4.11%) had a gene mutation at position V1016, and 146 Aedes albopictus (100%) had a gene mutation at position F1534. A total of 63 Aedes albopictus that died at diagnostic doses of pyrethroid insecticides were analyzed for VGSC gene mutations. No gene mutation was detected at position V1016, while 63 Aedes albopictus (100%) had a gene mutation at position F1534. One non synonymous mutation was detected at position V1016 of the VGSC gene, which was a heterozygous mutation of V1016V to V1016V/G. Two non synonymous mutations were detected at position F1534 of the VGSC gene, namely F1534F to F1534S or a F1534F/S heterozygous mutation. No Ace-1 gene mutation was detected in all Aedes albopictus exposed to 0.05% propoxur ( n = 75). Conclusions:The Aedes albopictus in Hangzhou has developed resistance to permethrin, deltamethrin, and beta-cypermethrin. It shows suspected resistance to propoxur and sensitivity to malathion. Moreover, a high frequency of mutations in the VGSC gene has been observed in these mosquitoes. It is crucial to enhance resistance monitoring in Aedes albopictus populations in Hangzhou and to implement the rational rotation of chemical insecticides to slow down the progress of drug resistance.
