Retinal vein occlusion(RVO)is the second most common blinding retinal vascular disease, and its secondary macular edema(ME)is an important cause of visual function impairment in patients. Intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)drugs serves as the first-line treatment, yet it is confronted with such issues as the need for repeated injections and non-response in some patients. Imaging and laboratory biomarkers play a crucial role in the early accurate diagnosis, prediction of disease progression, and evaluation of visual prognosis of RVO-ME. This study systematically reviews the research progress of imaging and laboratory biomarkers related to the prognosis of RVO-ME after anti-VEGF treatment in recent years, covering imaging biomarkers like central retinal thickness and ellipsoid zone integrity, as well as laboratory biomarkers such as serum APLN and aqueous humor IL-6. It summarizes the associations between different biomarkers and the prognosis of anti-VEGF therapy, aiming to provide a basis for the early accurate assessment and optimization of individualized treatment for RVO-ME patients, which holds significant clinical reference value.

Objective:To investigate the epidemic trends and spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection in China in recent years, and to provide a reference for its precise prevention and control.Methods:Data on reported cases of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection in China (not including Hongkong, Macau and Taiwan regions of China) were collected through the Infectious Diseases Surveillance System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System from 2018 to 2023. The trend in the incidence rate was analyzed using the Joinpoint 4.9.1 software. Global and local spatial autocorrelation analyses at the county level were conducted using the ArcGIS 10.5 software. Spatiotemporal scanning analysis was carried out with the SaTScan 10.1.2 software.Results:The reported incidence rates of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection slightly declined from 12.66 per 100 000 in 2018 to 12.45 per 100 000 in 2023, with an average annual percent change of -1.42%, which was not statistically significant ( t = -1.14, P = 0.318). The reported incidence rates of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection at the county level in China showed a significant positive global spatial autocorrelation, with the global Moran's indices ranging from 0.68 to 0.74 (all P < 0.001) ; the standardized statistic Z (G) values for the Getis-Ord general G were all greater than 1.96, indicating a high-value clustering pattern. Local spatial autocorrelation analysis revealed that hotspot areas were predominantly located in southern and eastern China. In the spatiotemporal scanning analysis, 38 statistically significant spatiotemporal clusters were identified, mainly distributed in southern and eastern China and consistent with the hotspot areas. Conclusions:From 2018 to 2023, the reported incidence rates of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection showed a slight decline, and the epidemic exhibited spatiotemporal clustering characteristics in China. Targeted prevention and control measures need to be implemented in hotspot areas and spatiotemporal clusters.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological trends and spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of syphilis in China from 2010 to 2023.Methods:Data on syphilis cases reported from 31 provinces, autonomous regions or municipalities from 2010 to 2023 were collected from the Infectious Diseases Surveillance System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Joinpoint 5.2.0 software was used to analyze the epidemiological trends of syphilis, ArcGIS 10.5 software was used for spatial autocorrelation analysis at the county level, and SaTScan 10.2.3 software was used for space-time scan analysis.Results:The national reported incidence rates of syphilis increased from 26.86 per 100 000 in 2010 to 37.60 per 100 000 in 2023, with an average annual percent change of 1.82% (95% CI: 0.81% - 2.89%), and the upward trend in the reported incidence rates was statistically significant ( P = 0.002). There was a positive spatial autocorrelation in the reported incidence rates of syphilis at the county level in China (Moran's Ⅰ range: 0.47 - 0.60, all P < 0.001), and all of the Getis-Ord general test statistic Z (G) values were > 1.96, indicating a high-value clustering pattern in the reported incidence rates of syphilis. The local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the annual number of hotspot areas ranged from 180 to 294, which were mainly located in Xinjiang, Qinghai, Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan. A total of 92 spatio-temporal clusters were identified by space-time scan analysis, which were mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Guangxi, Guangdong and Fujian from 2010 to 2012, in Xinjiang from 2013 to 2017, and in Sichuan, Guizhou, Chongqing, etc., from 2019 to 2023. Conclusions:From 2010 to 2023, the reported incidence rates of syphilis in China exhibited a fluctuating increase on the whole, with obvious spatio-temporal clustering characteristics. The hotspot areas were basically consistent with the spatio-temporal clusters, and were mainly distributed in the northwestern, southeastern coastal and southwestern areas. Over time, the spatio-temporal clusters gradually changed from the southeast coastal and northwestern areas to the southwestern areas.

Objective:To observe the safety of 2-port non-vitrectomized subretinal injection (SRI) for the treatment of Bietti crystalline dystrophy (BCD).Methods:A exploratory clinical study. From February to May 2023, 6 BCD patients with 6 eyes who were confirmed by examination in Xiamen Eye Center of Xiamen University and were treated with SRI adeno-associated virus vector transgenic drugs were included in the study. Among them, 2 males had 2 eyes and 4 females had 4 eyes. Age were 34-60 years old. The study eye underwent adeno associated virus gene therapy via 2-port non-vitrectomized SRI. Two scleral ports were created using 25G vitrectomy trocar to place the light pipe and injection cannula. Anterior chamber paracentesis was performed to lower intraocular pressure. Under the silicone oil infusion mode of the vitrectomy machine, a 38G injection cannula penetrated the retina to reach the subretinal space. The injection speed was controlled by the foot pedal of the vitrectomy machine, and the drug was slowly injected into the subretinal space to create a subretinal bleb. if intra-ocular pressure assessed by finger palpation was high at the end of injection, drainage of the aqueous humor can be made by compressing the cornea incision until the intraocular pressure was normal. Patients were followed for 9-12 months and be examined using the same equipment and methods as before.Results:Retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal atrophy were observed in all 6 eyes of 6 patients were graded as stage Ⅲ by the fundus examination revealing atrophy of retinal pigmented epithelium and choroid, with or without yellow- white crystals and/or complex lipid. The range were operation time 9-14 minutes. No vitreous prolapse, retinal hemorrhage, or retinal tear was observed during surgery. After 24 hours, optical coherence tomogrophy examination showed absorption of subretinal fluid and retinal reattachment. None of the six patients showed corneal keratic precipitates, anterior chamber cells, vitreous cells, inflammation, high intraocular pressure, or retinal tear within the 9-month follow-up.Conclusion:Subretinal injection without vitrectomy using two ports is a safe and feasible alternative for adult gene therapy, and it shortens the surgical time.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the therapeutic effect of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and cytokines in aqueous humor in patients with diabetic retinopathy(DR).Methods From July 2023 to December 2023,50 DR patients(56 eyes)who were treated with anti-VEGF drugs in the Department of Ophthal-mology,the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University were included in this study.The patients were divided into the diabetic macular edema(DME)group(30 patients,36 eyes)and the proliferative DR(PDR)group(20 patients,20 eyes).Patients in the DME group received an intravitreal injection of aflibercept once a month for three consecutive times,with aqueous humor extracted before each injection.Patients in the PDR group received an intravitreal injection of aflibercept one week before vitrectomy,with aqueous humor extracted before injection and during vitrectomy,respective-ly.The concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGF-A),placental growth factor(PLGF),interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-23,IL-17A,and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the aqueous humor were detected using the Luminex as-say.Before injection therapy,all patients underwent best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and central macular thickness(CMT)examinations,and their correlations with cytokine concentrations in DR patients before injection therapy were ana-lyzed.Results Compared to before injection therapy,the concentrations of VEGF-A,PLGF,and IL-23 in the aqueous humor of patients in the DME group decreased significantly after treatment(all P＜0.05);additionally,the CMT de-creased,and the BCVA increased(both P＜0.05).After injection therapy,the concentrations of VEGF,PLGF,IL-1β,IL-23,IL-17A,and TNF-α in the aqueous humor of patients in the PDR group significantly decreased compared to before injec-tion therapy(all P＜0.05).Before injection therapy,the levels of VEGF-A,PLGF,and IL-23 in the aqueous humor of pa-tients in the DME group were higher than those in the PDR group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The correlation analysis results showed that before injection therapy,VEGF was negatively correlated with BCVA(r=-0.767,P=0.004)and was positively correlated with CMT(r=0.662,P=0.019)and IL-23(r=0.765,P=0.004)in the DME group.There was no correlation between the cytokines in the aqueous humor of patients in the PDR group be-fore injection therapy(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Changes in the concentration of VEGF-A,PLGF,and IL-23 are closely related to the occurrence and development of DR.Anti-VEGF treatment can improve BCVA and decrease CMT in DME pa-tients.The expression level of IL-23 in aqueous humor can serve as a predictive factor for the anti-VEGF efficacy in DR pa-tients,providing new targets for early diagnosis and treatment of DR.
