Objective:To provide evidence-based recommendations for the prevention and management of lower limb ischemia in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) patients during treatment according to search, evaluate, and summarize the best evidence on the prevention and management of lower limb ischemia in patients with VA-ECMO.Methods:Based on the PIPOST framework (population, intervention, professional, outcome, setting, and type of evidence), an evidence-based question was formulated. A systematic search was conducted according to the "6S" evidence pyramid model in both domestic and international databases, as well as professional association websites, for all evidence related to the prevention and management of lower limb ischemia in VA-ECMO patients (aged ≥18 years). The types of evidence included clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensus, systematic reviews, evidence summaries, and original studies. The search was conducted from the construction of the databases to February 2024. Two researchers independently conducted a literature quality evaluation, extracted and summarized evidence from the studies that met the quality criteria.Results:A total of 13 articles were included, consisting of 3 clinical decisions, 3 guidelines, 3 expert consensus, 3 systematic reviews, and 1 randomized controlled trial. A total of 18 pieces of evidence in 7 dimensions were summarized, including risk factors of VA-ECMO lower limb ischemia, evaluation before catheterization, evaluation and monitoring during treatment, prevention of lower limb ischemia, treatment of lower limb ischemia, management of distal perfusion catheter (DPC), and monitoring after VA-ECMO weaning.Conclusion:This evidence summary provides evidence-based recommendations for the prevention and management of lower limb ischemia in VA-ECMO patients, aiming to assist clinical healthcare professionals in developing tailored strategies for the prevention and management of lower limb ischemia based on during VA-ECMO support.

Objective:To observe alterations in center retinal thickness (CRT) in patients diagnosed with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) before and after undergoing superselective arterial thrombolysis (IAT) treatment.Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From August 2022 to September 2023, 12 patients (12 eyes) diagnosed with CRAO and treated with IAT at the ophthalmology department of Shenzhen Second People's Hospital. Among these patients, there were 8 males (8 eyes) and 4 females (4 eyes), all experiencing unilateral onset. The mean age was (47.00±15.06) years. The mean duration from onset to thrombolysis was (30.00±30.42) h. All eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessments; additionally, 6 eyes underwent Fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA). BCVA assessments were conducted using a standard logarithmic chart and transformed into logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) values for statistical analysis. The OCT measured CRT at various locations around the macular fovea (M), including upper (S1, S3), lower (I1, I3), nasal (N1, N3), and temporal (T1, T3) areas at 1 mm and 3 mm distances from the fovea. CRT was defined as the vertical distance between the inner retinal boundary membrane and the inner interface of the retinal pigment epithelial layer. Pre- and post-IAT examinations were performed using the same equipment and methodologies within a 24-hour interval. Changes in CRT at different macular points were compared and observed, while arterial imaging time changes were assessed in 6 eyes that underwent FFA. Paired t-tests were utilized to analyze logMAR BCVA, CRT at different locations, and arterial imaging time pre- and post-treatment. Results:Prior to IAT treatment, the logMAR BCVA for the affected eye was 3.48±1.42, while the arterial imaging time for the 6 eyes undergoing FFA examination was (27.50±5.47) s. After 24 hours, the logMAR BCVA had improved to 2.35±1.59 for the affected eye, with 9 eyes showing varying degrees of BCVA improvement. The arterial imaging time was (24.17±7.28) s post-treatment. The differences in logMAR BCVA and arterial imaging time before and after treatment were found to be statistically significant ( t=2.489, 3.262; P<0.05). Additionally, the comparison of CRT at S3 ( t=2.871), I1 ( t=2.325), and T3 ( t=3.446) before and after treatment yielded statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Conversely, the comparison of CRT at S1 ( t=1.879), I3 ( t=1.915), N1 ( t=2.001), N3 ( t=1.987), T1 ( t=2.180), and M ( t=-0.490) showed no statistically significant differences ( P>0.05). Conclusions:IAT treatment for CRAO has been shown to be effective in achieving therapeutic effects by reducing CRT in the macular area. However, the short-term improvement in retinal edema in the macular area is limited.

AIM:To test and compare the perceptual eye position and fixation stability of adolescents with emmetropia and adolescents with low myopia, investigating the characteristics of the perceptual eye position and fixation stability of adolescents with low myopia.METHODS: Cross-sectional study. A total of 132 adolescents(264 eyes)who visited in the ophthalmology clinic of our hospital from April to December 2023 were randomly selected as the research subjects. Participants were categorized into normal control group(n=45, 90 eyes), simple low myopia group(n=45, 90 eyes)and low myopia with anisometropia group(n=42, 84 eyes)according to their refractive status and were underwent assessments for perceptual eye position and fixation stability.RESULTS: Compared with the normal control group, the static and dynamic horizontal perceptual eye position deviation of the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly increased(P<0.05). Compared with the simple low myopia group, the static and dynamic horizontal perceptual eye position deviation of the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly increased(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in static and dynamic vertical perceptual eye position deviation among the three groups(P>0.05); compared with the normal control group, the horizontal and vertical fixation stability of the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group were significantly worse(all P<0.01), but there was no differences in the simple low myopia group and the low myopia with anisometropia group(P >0.05).CONCLUSION: Abnormalities are observed in perceptual eye position and fixation stability function in adolescents with low myopia compared with those adolescents with emmetropia, even at best corrected visual acuity. The occurrence of anisometropia could lead to an increased degree of horizontal perceptual eye position displacement.

The obtained objective remission rate (ORR) was 18%, the disease control rate (DCR) was 78%, and median PFS and median OS were 4.5 months and 9 months, respectively. The most common adverse reactions included fatigue (28%), bleeding (20%), anorexia (13%), and hand-foot syndrome (8%). Most of them were grade 1-2 in severity, 4 cases were documented as ≥grade 3, and no grade 5 toxicity was recorded.Conclusions:In the real world, radiotherapy added on anlotinib as a third-line regimen can prolong PFS and OS of the ES-SCLC patients, and the adverse reactions are generally tolerated. This combination treatment regimen is worthy of further investigation.

Improving the reproducibility of biomedical research results is a major challenge. Transparent and accurate reporting of the research process enables readers to evaluate the reliability of the research results and further explore the experiment by repeating it or building upon its findings. The ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines, released in 2019 by the UK National Centre for the Replacement, Refinement and Reduction of Animals in Research (NC3Rs), provide a checklist that is applicable to any in vivo animal research report. These guidelines aim to improve the standardization of experimental design, implementation, and reporting, as well as enhance the reliability, repeatability, and clinical translation of animal experimental results. The use of the ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines not only enriches the details of animal experimental research reports, ensuring that information on animal experimental results is fully evaluated and utilized, but also enables readers to understand the content expressed by the author accurately and clearly, promoting the transparency and completeness of the fundamental research review process. At present, the ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines have been widely adopted by international biomedical journals. This article is based on the best practices following the ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines in international journals, and it interprets, explains, and elaborates in Chinese the fifth part of the comprehensive version of the ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines published in PLoS Biology in 2020 (the original text can be found at https://arriveguidelines.org). This section includes the items 6-11 of Recommended 11 section, covering "Animal Care and Monitoring", "Interpretation/Scientific Implications", "Generalisability/Translation", "Protocol Registration", "Data Access" and "Declaration of Interests". Its aim is to promote a comprehensive understanding and use of the ARRIVE 2.0 guidelines among domestic researchers, to enhance the standardization of experimental animal research and reporting, and to promote high-quality development of experimental animal sciences and comparative medicine research in China.

Objective To investigate the causal association between 91 kinds of circulating inflammatory proteins and different subtypes of breast cancer(estrogen receptor-positive and-negative breast cancer)using a two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)method.Methods Corresponding exposure and outcome data were extracted from the genome-wide association study database.The data were analyzed by two-sample MR with inverse-variance weighting(IVW)as the primary study method,and MR-Egger,weighted median,simple mode,and weighted mode were used to complement the results.The results were complemented by sensitivity analysis to verify the reliability of the data.Results The IVW results showed that SULT1A1(P=0.0007)was associated with an increased risk of total BC,whereas IL-5(P=0.0011)was associated with a decreased risk of total BC.SULT1A1(P=0.0011)and CX3CL1(P=0.0005)were associated with an increased risk of ER+BC,whereas beta-NGF(P=0.0001)was associated with an increased risk of ER-BC.Supplem-entary analysis methods validated that the findings were consistent in direction and magnitude.The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the data were reliable and unbiased.Conclusion Using the MR method,this study confirms that SULT1A1 is a risk factor for overall breast cancer,whereas IL-5 is a protective factor for overall breast cancer.SULT1A1 and CX3CL1 are risk factors for estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer,and beta-NGF is a risk factor for estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer.
