Objective:To compare and observe the visual acuity and ocular anatomical outcome of different subtypes in open-globe injury (OGI) Ⅲ.Methods:A retrospective study. A total of 187 eyes of 187 patients with OGI involving zone Ⅲ who were admitted to the Department of Ophthalmology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2020 to December 2023 were included in the study. According to the 2022 International Globe and Adnexal Trauma Epidemiology Study groups consensus, zone Ⅲ was further divided into Ⅲa zone (5-8 mm posterior to the limbus) and Ⅲb zone (>8 mm posterior to the limbus), with 58 eyes (31%, 58/187) in group Ⅲa and 129 eyes (69%, 129/187) in group Ⅲb. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was examined using the international standard decimal visual acuity chart, converted into the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity when recorded. The injured zone, initial visual acuity, final visual acuity, retinal detachment (RD), uveal prolapse, and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) were collected. The follow-up time after surgery ≥ 6 months. The final visual acuity and anatomical prognosis of the two groups were observed. Silicone oil dependence, phthisis, and enucleation were defined as poor anatomical outcomes. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to analyze the impact of zone Ⅲb of OGI on the final visual acuity.Results:At the 6-month follow-up, the logMAR BCVA of group Ⅲa and group Ⅲb was 1.49±1.0 and 2.51±0.85; there was a statistically significant difference in the logMAR BCVA between the two groups ( t=-2.736, P<0.05). Compared with group Ⅲa, the proportion with light perception in group Ⅲb was higher, and the proportions with visual acuity of hand movement, counting fingers, and >0.01 were lower, and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with group Ⅲa, RD and PVR were more likely to occur in group Ⅲb, and the differences were all statistically significant ( χ2= 16.696, 8.697; P<0.05). Among the affected eyes in group Ⅲa and group Ⅲb, there were 14 eyes (24.1%, 14/58) and 95 eyes (73.6%, 95/129) with poor final anatomical outcomes respectively; the incidence of poor final anatomical outcomes in group Ⅲb was higher, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2= 40.332, P<0.01). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that initial visual acuity, RD, and uveal prolapse were independent risk factors affecting the final visual acuity (odds ratio=2.407, 4.162, 3.413; P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with OGI in zone Ⅲb have a worse visual prognosis and a higher incidence of poor anatomical outcomes. The subclassification of zone Ⅲ is helpful for better predicting the prognosis of OGI clinically.

Objective:To observe the epidemiological characteristics and transmission chain of COVID-19 in Harbin, and to provide epidemiological evidence for improving the COVID-19 preventive measures and optimizing prevention and control strategies.Methods:The epidemic situation of COVID-19 in Harbin in January 2021 was analyzed by using the Infectious Disease Report Information Management System and the Public Health Emergency Management Information System of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, the epidemic situation information publicly released by the Heilongjiang Provincial Health Commission, and the epidemiological report of Heilongjiang Province Certer for Disease Control and Prevention and Harbin Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The main transmission chains were sorted out through combination of epidemiological field investigation, serological testing, gene sequencing, big data and other means.Results:From January 12 to February 4, 2021, 295 cases of COVID-19 infection (including confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections) were reported in Harbin, which affected 6 districts of Harbin and were concentrated in 41 of the 274 townships in the city. The sex ratio of male to female was 1.00∶1.12 (139∶156); the age ranged from 1 to 86 years old, and the median age was 45 years old. The proportion of confirmed cases and asymptomatic infection was 1.00 ∶ 1.02 (146 ∶ 149), and there was a significant difference in the distribution of different ages between them ( P = 0.042). The cases were mainly found through the health screening of the centralized isolation personnel (178 cases, 60.3%). Other detection methods included active screening (87 cases, 29.5%), screening of the home isolation personnel (26 cases, 8.8%), and medical treatment in medical institutions (4 cases, 1.4%). The main transmission chain of the outbreak was the case associated with a food processing enterprise, with a total of 259 cases, accounting for 87.8% of the total cases. The gene sequencing results showed that the case sequence was homologous with that of Wangkui County, Suihua City, Heilongjiang Province. Conclusions:A food processing enterprise is involved in the main transmission chain, which indicates that the epidemic prevention and control measures needs to be further optimized. Specifically, the supervision and management of food processing enterprises, cold chain storage companies and other enterprises should be strengthened. High attention should be paid to the hidden dangers of COVID-19 in large and medium sized enterprises with hermetic space in Harbin.

Objective To study the effect of T-2 toxin on proliferation and cell cycle of rat chondrocytes,in order to provide a new idea in molecular mechanism of T-2 toxin-induced chondrocyte damage.Methods Primary chondrocytes of neonatal Wistar rats were isolated and stained by toluidine blue staining and type Ⅱ collagen immunofluorescence staining.The effects of different concentrations of T-2 toxin [0 (control),1,5,10,20,50,100 μg/L)] on proliferation of chondrocytes for 24 h were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method,and control,1 (low dose),5 (medium dose),and 10 μg/L (high dose) T-2 toxin were selected for subsequent experiment;cell cycle changes were detected by flow cytometry;Real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the effects of T-2 toxin on mRNA and protein expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and Cyclin D1 in chondrocytes.Results With increase of T-2 toxin concentration (control,1,5,10,20,50,100 μg/L),the cell survival rates [(100.00 ± 0.00)％,(93.12 ± 1.66)％,(77.12 ± 1.11)％,(59.44 ± 4.09)％,(46.64 ± 3.86)％,(38.15 ± 3.37)％,(33.79 ± 0.99)％] were decreased,and the differences were statistically significant (F =139.21,P ＜0.05).The percentages of quiescent phase/pre-DNA synthesis phase (G0/G1 phase) ceils in 1,5,10 μg/L T-2 toxin groups [(22.03 ± 0.42)％,(30.54 ± 2.61)％,(36.01 ± 1.51)％] were significantly higher than that in control group [(13.79 ± 1.65)％,P ＜ 0.05];the percentages of DNA synthesis phase (S phase) cells [(60.27 ± 3.53)％,(53.88 ±4.38)％,(49.55 ± 2.49)％] were significantly lower than that in control group [(76.72 ± 4.24)％,P ＜ 0.05].The differences of mRNA levels of PCNA and Cyclin D1 between groups were statistically significant (F =46.80,17.97,P ＜ 0.05),and 5,10 μg/L T-2 toxin groups (0.77 ± 0.13,0.79 ± 0.08,0.60 ± 0.07,0.56 ± 0.05) were lower than the control group (0.99 ± 0.02,1.01 ± 0.01,P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of PCNA protein in 5,10 μg/L T-2 toxin groups (0.69 ± 0.03,0.49 ± 0.03) were lower than that in control group (0.92 ± 0.05,P ＜ 0.05);the expressions of Cyclin D1 protein in 1,5,10 μg/L T-2 toxin groups (0.80 ± 0.06,0.60 ± 0.07,0.33 ± 0.13) were lower than that in control group (0.95 ± 0.07,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion T-2 toxin can inhibit the proliferation of chondrocytes,which may be worked through influencing the expression of cell cycle protein,causing cell cycle arrest,thereby inhibiting DNA synthesis.

Objective To investigate the effect of fluoride exposure on expression of miRNA (miR)-200c and its target in human osteoblast Saos-2 cells.Methods Saos-2 cells were cultured in DMEM/F-12 medium and treated with fluoride (sodium fluoride,NaF).There were two groups including:control group (0 mg/L) and fluoride group (4 mg/L).Cells were harvested after 48 hours of culture with fluoride.The expression of miR-200c,the mRNA of alkaline phosphatase (ALP),osteocalcin (BGP),the target phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) and dual-specific phosphatase 1 (DUSP1) of miR-200c was detected by qRT-PCR.The protein expression of PTEN and DUSP1 was detected by Western blotting.Results The expressions of ALP,BGP mRNA and miR-200c in Saos-2 cells in the fluoride group (23.60 ± 1.87,9.41 ± 0.94,8.61 ± 0.26) were higher than those in the control group (1.00 ± 0.11,1.00 ± 0.07,1.00 ± 0.12).The differences were statistically significant (t =-24.084,-18.388,-8.687,P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA expressions of PTEN and DUSP1 in the fluoride group (0.63 ± 0.02,0.38 ± 0.02) were lower than those in the control group (1.02 ± 0.24,1.02 ± 0.24).The differences were statistically significant (t =3.327,5.454,P ＜ 0.05).The protein expressions of PTEN and DUSP1 in Saos-2 cells in the fluoride group (1.19 ± 0.10,0.83 ± 0.07) were lower than those in the control group (1.81 ± 0.14,1.44 ± 0.25).The differences were statistically significant (t =6.250,4.171,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Exposure to fluorine may increase the expression of miR-200c in Saos-2 cells,and fluorine may act on PTEN and DUSP1 through miR-200c,downregulates the mRNA and protein expression levels of PTEN and DUSP1.

Objective:To investigate the preoperational nutritional condition for the children with congenital heart disease,and to analyze the relevant factors.Methods:According to the standards of WHO,the Z-scores was used to assess the nutritional condition for the children,and the generational information questionnaire,State-Trait Anxiety Inventory,Self-Rating Depression Scale and Parent Understanding Questionnaire were used to analyze the maternal factors.Results:Stunting,underweighting and wasting represented the poor nutritional conditions,which accounted for 28.6％,25.3％ and 25.3％,respectively.Maternal accurate perception and the psychological problems such as anxiety and depression were the main relevant factors.Conclusion:The poor nutritional condition for the congenital heart disease was serious.It is very important to improve the maternal accurate perception and to relieve the maternal psychological problems for changing the nutritional condition through appropriate health education and effective intervention.

Objective To investigate the relationship between abnormal methylation in promoter regions for OPN and VSMC phenotype switching in varicosity.Methods Immunohistochemistry and Western-blot were used to evaluate the expression of SMA and OPN in VSMC.Methylation-specific PCR was used to evaluate the methylation level of OPN in VSMC of vein samples.Ultrastructure change of VSMC was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM).Results Compared to normal vein,OPN in VSMCs were significantly highly expressed,mainly in the neointimal region (P ＜ 0.01).SMA in neointima region was in low expression (P ＜ 0.01).The density of OPN in varicose group was significantly higher (P ＜0.01).DNA methylation level of OPN was lower in varicose veins.Conclusions Hypomethylation of the promoter regions for OPN may cause high expression of OPN leading to VSMC phenotype switching and development of varicosity.
