Dry eye disease(DED)is a multifactorial ocular surface disorder characterized by the loss of tear film homeostasis among which evaporative DED associated with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD)accounts for up to 86%, and traditional drugs fail to effectively target the core pathological mechanism. As a new type of anhydrous and preservative-free eye drops approved by the FDA, perfluorohexyloctane has a unique amphiphilic structure, which can form an artificial lipid monolayer at the air-liquid interface of the tear film. It exerts its therapeutic effects by inhibiting tear evaporation, stabilizing the tear film, unclogging meibomian gland orifices, and promoting corneal oxygen supply. This drug can not only serve as a first-line treatment option for evaporative DED but also be combined with other drugs for personalized treatment. This review summarizes the mechanism of action, pharmacological properties, clinical efficacy, and safety of perfluorohexyloctane eye drops, and further elaborate on its application value in complex types of DED and patients with other concurrent ocular surface diseases, aiming to provide more evidence support for the precise treatment of DED.

Objective To explore enteral nutrition support and analyze its influencing factors in elderly patients with ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 328 patients with ischemic stroke in General Hospital of Western Theater Command were enrolled for nutritional screening between July 2020 and February 2024. Corresponding nutritional support plans were selected to investigate the compliance of patients with enteral nutrition support. Patients were divided into a standard group (n=140) and a non-standard group (n=97) based on whether their calorie intake met the standard. The effects of different clinical characteristics on enteral nutrition support were explored, and logistic analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of non-standard enteral nutrition support. Results In the 328 patients with ischemic stroke, proportions of total parenteral nutrition support, total enteral nutrition support, and parenteral/enteral nutrition support were 25.30%, 27.74% and 46.95%, respectively. The proportions of vomiting or regurgitation, gastric residual volume >100 mL, mechanical ventilation and use of antibiotics >2 in the non-standard group were higher than those in the standard group (P<0.05). Logistic analysis showed that the above clinical characteristics were risk factors influencing patients with enteral nutrition support and parenteral/enteral nutrition support. Conclusion Vomiting or regurgitation , gastric residual volume, mechanical ventilation, and amount of antibiotics used are important influencing factors of enteral nutrition support in patients. Clinicians should pay attention to the above clinical characteristics.

To summarize Professor DING Ying's clinical experience in treating children's IgA nephropathy from the perspective of "wind-induced water turbidity". It is believed that the core pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy in children is the wind stimμlating water to become turbidity, and the basic treatment principles are to eliminate wind and settle viscera, and to remove turbidity and drain water. For those with the syndrome of wind-heat invading the lungs and injury to blood collaterals, modified Yinqiao Powder (银翘散) combined with Xiaoji Decoction (小蓟饮子) could be used; for those with dampness-heat in Sanjiao, heavy dampness and light heat pattern, modified Sanren Decoction (三仁汤) combined with Bazheng Powder (八正散) could be used; for those with lung-spleen qi deficiency and kidney essence depletion pattern, modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction (补中益气汤) combined with Wuzi Yanzong Pill (五子衍宗丸) could be used; for those with deficiency of both qi and yin, kidney deficiency with stasis pattern, self-prescribed Yishen Huazhuo Formula (益肾化浊方) could be used. Meanwhile on the basis of pattern identification and treatment, rattan-type herbs could be combined in use in order to unblock the meridians and collaterals.

Chronic eczema is clinically characterized by pruritus and skin lesions such as macules,exudation,desquamation,and lichenification.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)typically attributes its pathogenesis to wind,dampness,and heat pathogens,and TCM treatment for chronic eczema focused on dispelling wind,eliminating dampness,and clearing heat.However,there were fewer reports about the treatment of accompanying emotional changes and sleep disturbances in chronic eczema patients.This paper integrated the physique-qi-spirit trinity life view with zang-fu organ differentiation,and proposed that the disorder of spleen transportation and transformation contributed to the pathological foundation of chronic eczema,while the dysfunction of heart and liver was the factor that significantly influenced disease progression after analyzing the clinical features of chronic eczema.For the treatment of chronic eczema,the establishment of strategies should consider clinical characteristics,duration of disease,and skin lesion patterns.The combination of physique-qi-spirit regulation with heart-liver-spleen treatment approaches aims to alleviate clinical symptoms,improve quality of life,and enhance therapeutic efficacy for chronic eczema patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) by analyzing inflammatory factors, lung ultrasound (LUS) scores, and CT scores, to establish a nomogram prediction model, and to provide a basis for early clinical intervention. MethodsA total of 409 patients with AP who were admitted to Changshu Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from January 2021 to October 2023 were enrolled as subjects, and they were divided into modeling group with 288 patients and validation group with 121 patients using the simple random sampling method at a ratio of 7∶3. According to the prognosis, each group was further divided into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group. The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured for both groups within 72 hours after admission, and LUS scores, modified CT severity index (MCTSI), and extrapancreatic inflammation on computed tomography (EPIC) scores were assessed within 48 — 72 hours after admission. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. A LASSO regression analysis was used to screen for the variables that were included in the multivariate logistic regression model to identify the independent risk factors for the poor prognosis of AP, and then a nomogram prediction model was established. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the calibration curve were used to assess the discriminatory ability and goodness of fit of the nomogram model, and a decision curve analysis was used to assess the clinical applicability of the model. ResultsAmong the 288 patients with AP in the modeling group, there were 33 (11.46%) in the poor prognosis group and 255 (88.54%) in the good prognosis group; among the 121 patients with AP in the validation group, there were 13 (10.74%) in the poor prognosis group and 108 (89.26%) in the good prognosis group. Compared with the good prognosis group, the poor prognosis group had significantly higher levels of CRP (Z=3.607, P<0.05), IL-6 (Z=4.189, P<0.05), and TNF-α (t=2.584, P<0.05), and significantly higher scores of LUS (t=8.075, P<0.05), MCTSI (t=5.929, P<0.05), and EPIC (t=8.626, P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CRP (odds ratio [OR]=3.592, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.272 — 10.138, P<0.05), IL-6 (OR=4.225, 95%CI: 1.468 — 12.156, P<0.05), TNF-α (OR=3.540, 95%CI: 1.205 — 10.401, P<0.05), LUS (OR=7.094, 95%CI: 2.398 — 20.986, P<0.05), MCTSI (OR=7.612, 95%CI: 2.832 — 20.462, P<0.05), and EPIC (OR=11.915, 95%CI: 4.007 — 35.432, P<0.05) were independent risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with AP. A nomogram prediction model was established based on the above 6 indicators, which had an area under the ROC curve of 0.924 (95%CI: 0.883 — 0.964), and the Youden index for the optimal cut-off value was 0.670, with a sensitivity of 0.909 and a specificity of 0.761. The calibration curve showed good consistency between the predicted and observed results in both the modeling group and the validation group. The decision curve analysis showed that the predictive model had certain clinical effectiveness. ConclusionThe nomogram model for predicting the risk of poor prognosis in AP patients based on CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, LUS score, MCTSI score, and EPIC score has relatively good predictive performance and can provide important strategic guidance for developing early intensified treatment regimens for AP patients in clinical practice.
