Objective:To explore the feasibility and conformity of cone contrast test (CCT) and pseudoisochromatic plate test applied in medical selection of pilot.Methods:One hundred and sixteen male students were selected from pilot candidates by stratified sampling method. All students were tested the pseudoisochromatic plate test and the red, green, and blue cone contrast sensitivity and were divided into normal group, color weakness group and color blindness group according to the results of the pseudoisochromatic plate test. The students with a CCT score below 75 were judged as color vision anomalopia. The coincidence rates of the 2 detection results were compared and analyzed.Results:There were 76 students in normal group, 9 students in color weakness group and 31 students in color blindness group. Students with color vision abnormalities were mainly characterized by red-green color blindness and green color weakness, manifested by a significant decrease in CCT scores of red and green ( P=0.012 or <0.001), but there was no significant difference in the blue CCT scores among 3 groups (both P>0.05). The CCT scores of normal students were not less than 75 points, which meant that the compliance rate was 100%. The proportion of students in the color blindness group below 75 points was 29/31 (with a conformity rate of 93.5%), while the proportion in the color weakness group was 2/9. Conclusions:The conclusions of CCT and pseudoisochromatic plate test for identifying color blindness and normal students are basically consistent, but the conformity rate for identifying color weakness assessment by pseudoisochromatic plate test is relatively low. It is suggested that CCT would be the complement for identifying color weakness and marginal color vision abnormalities in the medical selection for pilot.

Objective:To compare the effect of percutaneous screw-rod system combined with sacroiliac screw internal fixation and non-operation of type II-IV fragility fracture of the pelvis (FFP).Methods:A retrospective multicentral cohort study was performed to analyze the clinical data of 74 patients with FFP treated in Jiangjin Central Hospital of Chongqing and Hechuan People′s Hospital of Chongqing from January 2017 to June 2021, including 23 males and 51 females, aged 62-95 years [(79.3±7.3)years]. A total of 41 patients received non-surgical treatment (non-operation group). and 33 patients received percutaneous screw-rod system combined with sacroiliac screw internal fixation (operation group). The time to get out of bed, visual analog scale (VAS) and Majeed score on admission and at 1, 3, 6, 12 months after treatment, fracture healing time and complications were evaluated in the two groups.Results:Except for 9 patients who died at 3-9 months after treatment, the remaining patients were followed up for 12-24 months [(13.5±3.2)months]. The time to get out of bed was (11.4±2.8)days in operation group and was (67.4±4.4)days in non-operation group ( P<0.01). The VAS and Majeed score at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment were significantly improved in both groups compared with those on admission (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS and Majeed score between the two groups on admission (all P>0.05). The VAS was (3.2±0.7)points in operation group compared to (4.2±0.8)points in non-operation group at 1 month after treatment, and was (1.8±0.5)points in operation group compared to (2.9±0.7)points in non-operation group at 3 months after treatment (all P<0.01). The Majeed score was (56.0±2.4)points in operation group compared to (40.4±2.7)points in non-operation group at 1 month after treatment; the score was (77.3±2.6)points in operation group compared to (57.7±4.2)points in non-operation group at 3 months after treatment; the score was (86.5±1.8)points in operation group compared to (79.6±2.8)points in non-operation group at 6 months after treatment (all P<0.01). In contrast, the two groups had no statistically significant difference in VAS at 6 months and 12 months after treatment and Majeed score at 12 months after treatment (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the fracture healing time between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complications related to fixation methods between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of bed-related complications was 24.2% (8/33) in operation group and was 51.2% (21/41) in non-operation group ( P<0.05). The 1-year fatality rate was 3.0% (1/33) in operation group and 19.5% (8/41) in non-operation group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with non-operative treatment, percutaneous screw-rod system combined with sacroiliac screw internal fixation in the treatment of type II-IV FFP can allow early off-bed movement, effectively relieve pain, improve quality of life of the patients, and reduce complication rate.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation with midnight-noon ebb-flow acupoint selection on postoperative delirium (POD) in the patients undergoing radical resection of colorectal cancer.Methods:A total of 93 patients of either sex, aged ≥18 yr, with body mass index <30 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱor Ⅲ, scheduled for elective radical resection of colorectal cancer under general anesthesia, were divided into 3 groups ( n=31 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), common TEAS group (group CT), and midnight-noon ebb-flow acupoint selection TEAS group (group MT). The patients received TEAS at bilateral Hegu, Quchi and Shousanli acupoints at 6: 00 in group MT and at 18: 00 in group CT on the day of operation and 1-3 days after surgery, with a frequency of 2/100 Hz, disperse-dense waves, intensity the maximum current that could be tolerated, and each TEAS lasted for 30 min. In group C, only the electrodes were pasted at the same acupoints without electric current at 6: 00 am. The POD was evaluated by the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) at 1, 3 and 5 days after operation (T 1-3). Blood samples were collected for determination of serum interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) concentrations at 1 day before operation and at T 1. The time to first flatus and defection and adverse reactions after operation were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the CAM scores at each time point and incidence of POD were significantly decreased, the concentrations of IL-1β, TNF-a and IL-6 in serum were decreased at T 1, the time to the first flatus and defecation was shortened, and the incidence of abdominal distension after surgery was decreased in MT and CT groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group CT, the CAM scores at T 3 and incidence of POD were significantly decreased, the concentrations of TNF-a and IL-6 at T 1 were decreased, and the time to first defecation after operation was shortened in group MT ( P<0.05). Conclusions:TEAS guided by midnight-noon ebb-flow acupoint selection provides better efficacy than common TEAS in decreasing the risk of POD in the patients undergoing radical resection of colorectal cancer, which is helpful for the early postoperative recovery of patients.

Objective:To prepare a peptide fluorescent probe based on aggregation-induced emission and to investigate its application in the detection of early caries.Methods:Eight aspartate-serine-serine (DSS) were combined with aggregation-induced emission material to prepare peptide fluorescent probes, and an artificial demineralization model was established in vitro. The samples were immersed in the peptide fluorescent probe solution for 1 min, and a fluorescence imaging system was applied to examine the tooth samples and collect images and fluorescence data. Scanning electron microscopy was also applied to observe the phenotype of the teeth, and electron microscopy was applied to detect the calcium-phosphorus ratio on the enamel surface of the teeth. Polarized light microscopy was also applied to observe the enamel area of the teeth. Results:The fluorescence intensity of demineralized teeth was clearly observed to be lower than that of normal teeth in the peptide fluorescent probe-treated area, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The results of scanning electron microscopy showed that the enamel surface of the demineralized group had more irregular pores, while the enamel surface of the undemineralized group was flatter with only some irregular accumulation of flakes. The results of polarized light microscopy showed that a clear birefringence could be observed in the enamel region of normal teeth, while a black area or the disappearance of the birefringence effect accompanied by a partial black dark shadow could be observed in the enamel region of demineralized teeth. Conclusions:An aggregation-induced luminescence-based peptide fluorescent probe was successfully prepared, which can precisely localize the enamel and show some application value in early caries detection.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety between WangShiBaoChiWan and mosapride in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:From September 2019 to September 2020, patients with postprandial fullness and early satiation who met the Rome Ⅳ criteria for FD diagnosis were enrolled from 15 hospitals, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University (Shanghai Changhai Hospital), Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical College. The subjects were randomly divided into WangShiBaoChiWan (experimental) group and mosapride (control) group in the ratio of 1∶1. The treatment regimens were WangShiBaoChiWan+ mosapride simulator, WangShiBaoChiWan simulator+ mosapride, respectively with a treatment period of 2 weeks. The primary efficacy outcome was the improvement rates of main symptoms before and after treatment, the secondary efficacy primary efficacy outcome was the total clinical effective rate and the change of the single symptom score. And the safety indicator included adverse events. Independent sample t-test, paired t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 251 FD patients were enrolled in the full analysis set, including 124 in the experimental group and 127 in the control group; 241 FD patients were in the per-protocol analysis set, including 117 in the experimental group and 124 in the control group. The analysis of per-protocol analysis set showed that the improvement rates of the main symptoms of the experimental group and the control group were (66±29)% and (60±30)%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The improvement rate of the main symptoms of the experimental group reached 117% of that of the control group, which exceeded the expected non-inferiority standard of 80%. The total clinical effective rates of the experimental group and the control group were 76.07% (89/117) and 75.81% (94/124), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of full analysis set showed that the incidence of adverse events of the experimental group and the control group was 1.62% (2/124) and 1.57% (2/127), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no serious adverse events in the two groups. Conclusion:The improvement rate of the main symptoms of WangShiBaoChiWan is not inferior to that of mosapride in the treatment of FD, and it has good safety.
