Objective:To investigate the potential value of saccade and antisaccade parameters in early identification of Parkinson′s disease (PD) and its motor subtypes.Methods:A total of 111 PD patients [tremor dominant (TD) type in 45, postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD) type in 54 and indeterminate type in 12)] and 54 healthy controls were recruited from Department of Neurology, Guangdong Provincial People′s Hospital from July 2022 to July 2023. All subjects underwent oculomotor test including visually guided saccades and volitional antisaccades by the Eyeknow-M10-B Eye tracker. For PD patients, TD and PIGD scores were measured using the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson′s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part Ⅱ and Part Ⅲ. Oculomotor parameters among TD, PIGD patients and healthy controls were firstly compared. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed to assess the relationship between ocular parameters with differences and TD/PIGD score. Then receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was made between PD patients and healthy controls, as well as between PIGD and TD subtypes.Results:Compared to healthy controls, PD patients showed significantly decreased saccadic accuracy [100.0%(90.0%, 100.0%) vs 100.0%(100.0%, 100.0%), U=1 732.500, P<0.001], prolonged latency [252.2(228.5, 300.1) ms vs 227.7(214.2, 241.8) ms, U=1 401.000, P<0.001], minimum duration [233.6(211.2, 278.8) ms vs 211.0(200.0, 222.5) ms, U=1 534.500, P<0.001], average duration [356.6(313.8, 427.8) ms vs 279.4(267.4, 312.9) ms, U=881.000, P<0.001],as well as decreased peak [444.4(335.0, 593.7) °/s vs 526.7(412.6, 696.2) °/s, U=1 971.000, P=0.007] and average velocity [196.3(144.4, 240.5) °/s vs 256.7(226.7, 312.0) °/s, U=1 330.000, P<0.001] in saccades. And in antisaccades, PD patients also showed prolonged latency [432.0(362.9, 599.8) ms vs 352.9(309.8, 407.6) ms, U=1 553.000, P<0.001], minimum duration [333.4(299.8, 377.6) ms vs 290.1(263.9, 332.9) ms, U=1 608.000, P<0.001], average duration [518.2(462.7, 603.5) ms vs 424.2(377.1, 473.5) ms, U=1 181.000, P<0.001], decreased peak [458.5(327.9, 604.3) °/s vs 560.4(440.3, 698.5) °/s, U=1 838.500, P=0.001] and average velocity [186.6(143.1, 228.1) °/s vs 263.2(217.2, 301.5) °/s, U=1 131.000, P<0.001]. There was no statistically significant difference in antisaccadic accuracy [55.0%(15.0%, 80.0%) vs 66.7%(39.4%, 86.9%), U=2 167.500, P=0.053]. Compared with TD subtype, PIGD patients showed significantly decreased antisaccadic peak velocity [416.2(300.3, 534.3) °/s vs 527.1(402.3, 636.4) °/s, U=-26.474, P=0.009]. After adjusting for age, gender and education, antisaccadic peak velocity was negatively correlated with PIGD score in PD patients (β=-0.296, P=0.001), and no correlation with TD score was found. The ROC analysis was performed on combined saccadic and antisaccade metrics between PD patients and healthy controls, with area under the curve (AUC) as 0.918. For antisaccadic peak velocity between PIGD and TD subtypes, the AUC was 0.690. Conclusions:Eye movement metrics have potential value in distinguishing PD patients from healthy controls. The antisaccadic peak velocity is related to the severity of motor symptoms in PIGD patients, which is helpful for distinguishing the motor subtypes of PD patients.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-related adverse events in novice trainees and establishment of its prediction model.Methods:The prospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 12 novice trainees of ERCP in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from July 2016 to July 2019 were selected. The operation was performed by 12 novice trainees of ERCP under the guidance of the endoscopic experts. Observation indicators: (1) ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees; (2) analysis of influencing factors for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees; (3) establishment of a prediction model for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed by the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and com-parison between groups was analyzed by the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed by the chi-square test. The Logistic regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. The regression coefficients were used to construct a prediction model. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn, and the area under curve was used to evaluate the predictive ability. Results:(1) ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees. Of the 300 patients with ERCP operated by 12 novice trainees, 52 cases had ERCP-related adverse events and 248 cases had no ERCP-related adverse events. Cases in grade 1?2 or grade 3?4 of ERCP difficulty classification, score for intubation time, score for cannulation time, cases with or without completion of the cannulation, cases with or with-out basket stone removal, cases with or without stenosis expansion, score for contrast-enhanced interpretation, score for implementation of reasonable treatment and score for expected purpose reached were 22, 30, 8(range, 5?10), 20(rang, 9?20), 24, 28, 11, 41, 0, 52, 39±17, 39±19 and 44±23 for novice trainees with ERCP-related adverse events, versus 146, 102, 6(range, 4?9), 12(range, 8?20), 163, 85, 94, 154, 20, 228, 52±22, 80±20, 52±23 for novice trainees without ERCP-related adverse events, showing significant differences in the above indicators between them ( χ2=4.79, Z=?2.46, ?2.72, χ2=7.01, 5.30, 4.49, t=?4.00, ?2.97, ?2.29, P<0.05). (2) Analysis of influencing factors for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees. Results of univariate analysis showed that the diffi-culty classification of ERCP, intubation time, cannulation time, completion of cannulation, basket stone extraction, contrast-enhanced interpretation, implementation of reasonable treatment and expected purpose reached were related factors for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees ( odds ratio=1.95, 1.11, 1.08, 0.45, 0.44, 0.97, 0.98, 0.98, 95% confidence intervals as 1.07?3.58, 1.02?1.22, 1.02?1.14, 0.24?0.82, 0.22?0.90, 0.96?0.99, 0.96?0.99, 0.97?1.00, P<0.05). Results of multi-variate analysis showed that difficulty classification of ERCP and contrast-enhanced interpretation were independent influencing factors for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees ( odds ratio=2.08, 0.95, 95% confidence intervals as 1.10?3.96, 0.92?0.99, P<0.05). (3) Establishment of a predic-tion model for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees. According to the important outcome indicators of clinical training and results of multivariate analysis, 4 indicators including difficulty classification of ERCP, intubation time, cannulation time and contrast-enhanced interpretation were included to establish a prediction model for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees, which indicated that trainees with the predicted score >0.4 were in high risk of ERCP-related adverse events. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve of the prediction model was 0.72(95% confidence interval as 0.65?0.79, P<0.05), with the best cut-off value as 0.40, the sensitivity as 76.9% and the specificity as 63.3%. Conclusion:The difficulty classification of ERCP and contrast-enhanced interpretation are independent influencing factors for ERCP-related adverse events in novice trainees. Novice trainees with a predicted score >0.4 are high-risk groups of ERCP-related adverse events.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of low-energy laser in the treatment of erosive oral lichen planus (OLP) and its effect on patients' pain.Methods:Eighty-six patients with erosive OLP who were treated in Shanxian Central Hospital from February 2018 to January 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into control and observation groups ( n = 43/group). The control group was treated by local injection of dexamethasone, and the observation group was treated with semiconductor low-energy laser irradiation. All patients were treated for 8 weeks. Pain scores and physical sign score before and after treatment were evaluated in each group. Therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups. Area of lesion was measured in each group. Recurrence of erosive OLP was calculated at 3 and 6 months after surgery. Results:Before treatment, there were no significant differences in visual analogue scale (VAS) score and physical sign score between the two groups (both P > 0.05). At 7, 14, 28 and 56 days after treatment, VAS score and physical sign score were significantly decreased in each group compared with those before treatment, and VAS score and physical sign score in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). Total response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [93.02% (40/43) vs. 83.72% (36/43), χ2 = 1.81, P > 0.05). Before and 1 month after treatment, there was no significant difference in area of lesion between control and observation groups (both P > 0.05). At 3 and 6 months after surgery, area of lesion in the observation group was (0.31 ± 0.14) cm 2 and (0.32 ± 0.12) cm 2, respectively, which were significantly smaller than those in the control group [(0.42 ± 0.18) cm 2, (0.48 ± 0.19) cm 2, t = 3.16, 4.67, both P < 0.05). At 3 and 6 months after treatment, recurrence of erosive OLP in the observation group was 2.33% (1/43) and 13.95% (6/43), respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [13.95% (6/43), 37.21% (16/43), χ2 = 3.89, 6.11, both P < 0.05]. Conclusion:There is no significant difference in the short-term efficacy of low-energy laser versus conventional corticosteroids in the treatment of erosive OLP. However, low-energy laser has a more obvious short-term pain relief effect than conventional corticosteroids. It can accelerate the healing of injured tissue and decrease the recurrence rate of erosive OLP.

Blood routine examination results showed that the median value of hemoglobin in GOV2 group was lower than that in IGV1 group(91.00 g/L VS 112.00 g/L, P<0.05). The incidence of portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) in GOV2 group was higher than that in IGV1 group [20.14% (28/139) VS 5.63% (4/71), P<0.05]. The incidence of peptic ulcer was lower in GOV2 group than that in IGV1 group [12.23% (17/139) VS 38.03% (27/71), P<0.05]. The median diameter of portal veins in GOV2 group was larger than that in IGV1 group (15.09 mm VS 12.85 mm, P<0.05), and the volume of gastric fundus varices in GOV2 group was smaller than that in IGV1 group (2.14 mL VS 10.00 mL, P<0.05). The proportion of afferent veins in left gastric vein in GOV2 group was higher than that in IGV1 group [98.43% (125/127) VS 77.78% (42/54), P<0.05], and the median diameter of left gastric vein in GOV2 group was larger than that in IGV1 group (5.58 mm VS 4.53 mm, P<0.05). The efferent vessels mainly included gastrorenal shunt and splenorenal shunt. The incidences of gastrorenal shunt [27.56% (35/127) VS 66.67% (36/54)] and splenirenal shunt [12.60% (16/127) VS 25.93% (14/54)] in GOV2 group were lower than those in IGV1 group ( both P<0.05). The incidences of venae parumbilicales vein [38.58% (49/127) VS 12.96% (7/54)] and retroperitoneal collateral shunt [30.71% (39/127) VS 11.11% (6/54)] in GOV2 group were higher than those in IGV1 group (both P<0.05). Conclusion:There is significant heterogeneity in clinical features and imaging findings between cirrhotic patients complicated with GOV2 and IGV1. Recognizing and understanding the differences between the two types of patients is beneficial to taking appropriate clinical measures and improving patient prognosis.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical data of Chinese patients with colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R)-related leukoencephalopathy, and clarify the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of Chinese patients.Methods:Medical history of patients with CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy diagnosed from April 1, 2018 to January 31, 2021 in the department of neurology of 22 hospitals in China was collected, and scores of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), magnetic resonance severity scale were evaluated. Group comparison was performed between male and female patients.Results:A total of 62 patients were included, and the male-female ratio was 1∶1.95. The age of onset was (40.35±8.42) years. Cognitive impairment (82.3%, 51/62) and motor symptoms (77.4%,48/62) were the most common symptoms. The MMSE and MoCA scores were 18.79±7.16 and 13.96±7.23, respectively, and the scores of two scales in male patients (22.06±5.31 and 18.08±5.60) were significantly higher than those in females (15.53±7.41 , t=2.954, P=0.006; 10.15±6.26, t=3.328 , P=0.003). The most common radiographic feature was bilateral asymmetric white matter changes (100.0%), and the magnetic resonance imaging severity scale score was 27.42±11.40, while the white matter lesion score of females (22.94±8.39) was significantly higher than that of males (17.62±8.74 , t=-2.221, P<0.05). A total of 36 CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, among which c.2381T>C/p.I794T was the hotspot mutation that carried by 17.9% (10/56) of the probands. Conclusions:The core phenotypic characteristics of CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy in China are progressive motor and cognitive impairment, with bilateral asymmetrical white matter changes. In addition, there exist gender differences clinically, with severer cognitive impairment and imaging changes in female patients. Thirty-six CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, and c.2381T>C/p. I794T was the hotspot mutation.

FibroTouch (FT) has been used widely in clinic. Studies of the FT diagnostic efficiency and influencing factors of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) of liver fibrosis in autoimmune liver diseases (AILD) have shown that FT has a good diagnostic efficiency and accuracy, especially in AIH. However, for patients with primary biliary cholangitis and overlap syndrome of autoimmune hepatitis, FT results should be vigilant. In addition, the diagnostic efficiency of FT. Notably, when using FT to diagnose AILD, the value of elastic stiffness depends on five influencing factors, such as, age, total bile acid, international standardized ratio, FIB-4 index, and prothrombin time.

Objective To investigate the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and the risk factors of DPN. Methods From April 2016 to may 2017,the clinical data of 62 patients with T2DM diagnosed and treated in Hebei Provincial Corps Hospital of armed police were analyzed retrospectively.
