AIM: To compare the efficacy of highly aspherical lenslets(HAL), defocus incorporated multiple segments(DIMS), and single-vision spectacle lenses(SVL)in slowing myopia progression in children and adolescents.

METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, myopic children and adolescents aged 6-16 y who were prescribed spectacle lenses at the hospital between January 2023 and June 2023 were included. Participants were divided into the HAL, DIMS, and SVL groups according to the correction modality voluntarily selected by participants and their guardians. The follow-up duration was 12 mo. After 12 mo of wear, changes from baseline in sphere, cylinder, spherical equivalent(SE), axial length(AL), flat corneal curvature(K1), steep corneal curvature(K2), mean corneal curvature, and binocular visual function \〖binocular cross-cylinder(BCC), negative/positive relative accommodation(NRA/PRA)\〗 were compared among the three groups after 12-month spectacle wear. Three groups were further stratified by age into age≤10 y and age>10 y subgroups to explore the effect of age on myopia control efficacy of defocus lenses.

RESULTS: A total of 159 myopic participants(159 eyes; only the right eye was included for each subject)were enrolled. In the HAL group(55 participants), there were 24 males and 31 females, with a mean age of 10.07±2.14 y. The DIMS group consisted of 60 participants(33 males, 27 females), with a mean age of 10.02±1.88 y. The SVL group included 44 participants(21 males, 23 females), with a mean age of 10.59±1.93 y. There were no significant differences in K1, K2, mean corneal curvature, NRA, BCC, and PRA among the three groups after 12-month spectacle wear(all P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the changes in sphere, SE, and AL(all P<0.05). The changes in sphere, cylinder, SE, and AL in the HAL and DIMS groups were significantly lower than those in the SVL group(all P<0.0167). The DIMS group showed a significantly smaller cylinder progression than the SVL group(P<0.0167). In participants aged≤10 y, the change in spherical power in the HAL group was significantly smaller than those in the DIMS group and SVL group after 12-month spectacle wear(all P<0.0167). The change in cylindrical power in the DIMS group was smaller than that in the SVL group(all P<0.0167). Among participants aged>10 y, the changes in spherical power, SE, and AL in both the HAL group and DIMS group were significantly smaller than those in the SVL group after 12-month spectacle wear(all P<0.0167).

CONCLUSION: Both HAL and DIMS lenses can effectively slow the progression of refractive error and AL elongation in children and adolescents, without significant adverse effects on binocular visual function. Among children≤10 y, HAL lenses yield superior spherical power control, whereas DIMS lenses provide better astigmatism control than SVL.

Congenital hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of hypoglycemia in children, characterized by a complex genetic basis, diverse pathogenic mechanisms, and significant clinical heterogeneity.Delayed diagnosis and treatment can lead to irreversible neurological sequelae, including epilepsy and psychomotor retardation.In this review, recent advancements in the molecular genetics, imaging localization, therapeutic strategies, and follow-up outcomes of congenital hyperinsulinism were summarized so as to offer valuable insights for its clinical management.

Fatigue driving is a major cause of traffic accidents,which poses a great threat to public safety and property.In order to reduce the losses caused by fatigue driving,many researchers have devoted themselves to the study about fatigue driving,such as driver behavior monitoring,brainwave monitoring,eye tracking and facial expression analysis.Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages.Behavioral monitoring reflects the fatigue state by analyzing the driver's driving habits and facial expression,which is easy to operate but prone to be affected by the external environment.Brainwave monitoring is more accurate and can detect the fatigue state in real time,but the equipment is complicated and costly,which limits its large-scale application.The detection based on eye-tracking and facial expression analysis also has a certain potential for application,but errors may occur under different light conditions.Herein the review introduces the effects of fatigue on driving ability and compares the research results of various fatigue driving detection methods by searching,collating,analyzing and summarizing the relevant literatures at home and abroad.Various detection methods are analyzed and summarized,and it is pointed out that the fatigue driving detection method based on multi-feature information fusion will become a research hotspot.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)is a progressive,irreversible neurodegenerative disorder characterized by gradual brain cell degeneration,leading to progressive decline in cognitive function and ultimately death.Early identification and intervention are critical to AD diagnosis.In recent years,deep learning has further advanced image-based AD classification methods and facilitated the application of deep models in the early AD diagnosis.To achieve accurate early diagnosis and subsequent classification of AD,researchers have integrated deep learning with magnetic resonance imaging to develop more precise models.By analyzing and synthesizing relevant domestic and international literature,this review introduces commonly used public datasets and evaluation criteria for AD,analyzes the application of magnetic resonance imaging in AD classification and its integration with deep learning methods,and highlights the roles of techniques such as convolutional neural networks,transfer learning,attention mechanisms,and multimodal approaches in AD classification.It also discusses the advantages,limitations,and developmental trends of deep learning in AD classification,aiming to provide new insights for the application of deep learning in AD research.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in healthcare facilities in major regions of China in 2023.Methods Clinical isolates collected from 73 hospitals across China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2023 Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) breakpoints.Results A total of 445199 clinical isolates were collected in 2023,of which 29.0％ were gram-positive and 71.0％ were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species (excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi) (MRSA,MRSE and MRCNS) was 29.6％,81.9％ and 78.5％,respectively.Methicillin-resistant strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents than methicillin-susceptible strains (MSSA,MSSE and MSCNS).Overall,92.9％ of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 91.4％ of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis had significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 93.1％ in the isolates from children and and 95.9％ in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 15.0％ for most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,22.5％ and 23.6％ of which were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively .Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.6％ to 10.0％.The resistance rate to imipenem and meropenem was 21.9％ and 17.4％ for Pseudomonas aeruginosa,respectively,and 67.5％ and 68.1％ for Acinetobacter baumannii,respectively.Conclusions Increasing resistance to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still observed in clinical bacterial isolates.However,the prevalence of important crabapenem-resistant organisms such as crabapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a slightly decreasing trend.This finding suggests that strengthening bacterial resistance surveillance and multidisciplinary linkage are important for preventing the occurrence and development of bacterial resistance.
