Objective To understand the status of body image disturbance and its influencing factors in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), so as to provide a scientific basis for the clinical management of AS. Methods A total of 353 AS patients admitted from January 2022 to December 2024 were selected as research subjects. Chinese version of Body Image Disturbance Questionnaire (BIDQ) was used to investigate the body image disturbance in AS patients. Single factor analysis was performed by t test and analysis of variance, and multiple factors were analyzed by multivariate linear regression. Results The total score of BIDQ in 342 AS patients was (25.01±4.22). Multivariate linear regression analysis results showed that self-paid medical expense, nighttime VAS score and negative emotion PANAS score could positively predict body image disturbance in AS patients (standardized regression coefficient=0.413, 0.413, 0.460, P<0.05), and PSSS score, positive emotion PANAS score and exercise management CDSSM score could negatively predict body image disturbance (standardized regression coefficient=-0.245, -0.134, -0.247, P<0.05). Conclusion The body image disturbance in AS patients is worthy of clinical attention. Nighttime pain, negative emotion and self-paid medical treatment can increase the risk of body image disturbance. Positive emotion, social support and high self-management level of exercise behavior can reduce the formation of body image disturbance, which can provide new ideas for clinical management of AS patients.

As the first marketed epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, gefitinib plays an important role in the targeted therapy of malignant tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer, but this drug can cause serious adverse effects such as liver toxicity. If the reaction occurs, the drug must be stopped for liver protection treatment, which greatly affects the treatment process of cancer. However, the mechanism of gefitinib-induced hepatotoxicity is still unclear, and clinical treatment measures are very limited. This article aims to review the molecular mechanism of gefitinib-induced hepatotoxicity and the commonly used clinical therapeutic drugs, so as to provide scientific basis for clinical prevention and rational drug use.

AIM:To compare the changes of macular microcirculation in eyes with idiopathic and diabetic macular epiretinal membrane(ERM)before and after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV), and to evaluate the prognosis of the two types of ERM.

METHODS:We conducted a retrospective study on 24 patients(24 eyes), 12 patients(12 eyes)with idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane(iERM)and 12 patients(12 eyes)with diabetic macular epiretinal membrane(dERM)who underwent PPV combined with ERM and internal limiting membrane(ILM)peeling from April 2020 to July 2020. In addition, 16 contralateral healthy eyes of iERM patients who underwent PPV combined with ERM and ILM removal from September 2019 to July 2020 were selected as the normal control group. All patients were followed up for more than 3mo. The area of foveal avascular zone(FAZ)and the macular vascular density(MVD), including superficial macular vascular density(SVD)and deep macular vascular density(DVD)were compared before and after surgery. And the prognosis was also analysed.

RESULTS: The area of FAZ in the iERM group and dERM group before surgery were significantly smaller than that in the control group(P<0.05); The total SVD in the iERM and dERM groups were lower than that in the control group, and the dERM group was lower than that in the iERM group, but no statistically significant difference was found. The total DVD in the iERM and dERM groups was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05). The foveal SVD in the iERM was significantly higher than that in the dERM and control groups, and the foveal DVD in the iERM was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). The parafoveal SVD in the iERM and dERM groups were lower than that in the control group, but only the difference was obvious between the dERM and the control group(P<0.05). The parafoveal DVD in the iERM and dERM groups were significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05). Postoperative visual acuity was significantly improved in the iERM group and dERM group(P<0.05), but the SVD was barely changed. The total and parafoveal DVD in the iERM group were statistically higher than those before surgery(P<0.05). DVD in the dERM group was higher than it was before surgery, but with no statistically difference. There were no differences in the visual acuity, SVD and DVD between the iERM and dERM groups after operation.

CONCLUSION: The changes of macular microcirculation in dERM were more obvious than those in iERM. DVD in the iERM patients was improved at the early stage after operation, while the improvement was not obvious in the dERM patients.

Objective To analyze the results from adopted evaluation of Composite Adaptation of Assistive Devices Program (CAADP) in Shanghai. Methods 1996 potential adaptation objects were evaluated by professional assessment panel with the questionnaire developed by our research group in the early. Results and Conclusion Physical disabilities were the majority. 97.69% of the objects needed different assistance from others or aids in their daily lives, with low quality of life. The assistive devices recommended were an average of 4.3 per person with complete species.
