AIM: To investigate the influence of pterygium thickness and area on corneal refractive status.METHODS: Prospective longitudinal study. A total of 60 cases(60 eyes)of pterygium patients admitted to our hospital from January 2024 to September 2024 were randomly selected. All patients underwent pterygium excision combined with pedicle conjunctival flap transplantation for treatment. Optical coherence tomography(OCT)was used to measure the preoperative thickness of patient's pterygium, and a digital slit lamp microscope was used to measure the area of pterygium. The corneal refractive status(degree of corneal astigmatism and average curvature)and changes in uncorrected visual acuity of patients before surgery, 1 d, 1, and 3 mo after surgery were compared. The relationship between preoperative thickness and area of pterygium in patients and corneal refractive status indicators at different postoperative time points were analyzed, and Logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of pterygium thickness and area on postoperative visual improvement in patients.RESULTS: All patients completed follow-up after surgery for 3 mo. At 3 mo after surgery, visual acuity improved in 21 eyes(35%). The results of bivariate Pearson correlation analysis showed that the thickness and area of pterygium positively correlated with the degree of corneal astigmatism and uncorrected visual acuity before surgery and 1 d, 1, and 3 mo after surgery(all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the average corneal curvature before surgery and 1 d, 1, and 3 mo after surgery(all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the thickness and area of pterygium before surgery, high degree of corneal astigmatism, and low uncorrected visual acuity(large LogMAR value)were all risk factors for poor postoperative visual improvement in patients(OR>1, P<0.05). The large average corneal curvature before surgery was a protective factor for poor postoperative visual improvement in patients(OR<1, P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The increase in thickness and area of pterygium can, to some extent, improve corneal astigmatism, reduce the average curvature of the cornea, and affect postoperative visual recovery.

Ferroptosis is a key driver of the onset and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). By exploring the role of ferroptosis in COPD from the perspective of "qi deficiency with retention and stagnation", it is considered that mitochondrial dysfunction and imbalanced antioxidant defenses are the microscopic manifestations of "qi deficiency", whereas iron accumulation and lipid peroxide deposition constitute the pathological basis of "retention and stagnation". In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the treatment principle is tonifying deficiency and benefiting qi, scattering retention and unblocking stagnation. Its mechanism involves improving the antioxidant system and mitochondrial function to enhance cellular resistance to ferroptosis, as well as relieving pulmonary iron overload, excessive lipid peroxidation, and inflammatory factor release to reduce the accumulation of pathological products, thereby exerting therapeutic effects on COPD.

ObjectiveTo explore the expression levels of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 and microRNA-22-3p (miR-22-3p) in the serum of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and their diagnostic value for AMI. MethodsA total of 176 AMI patients were selected as the experimental group and were divided into ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group (n=95) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) group (n=81) based on their medical history and electrocardiogram. Meanwhile, 156 patients with negative angiography during the same period were selected as the control group (CON group). The relative expression levels of lncRNA H19 and miR-22-3p in the serum of the two groups were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The diagnostic value of miR-22-3p and lncRNA H19 in AMI was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. The levels of serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK-MB), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) were detected in all study subjects. Spearman correlation analyses were used to evaluate the correlations between lncRNA H19 and miR-22-3p and cTnI, CK, CK-MB and CRP. ResultsCompared with the control group, the expression level of lncRNA H19 was upregulated and the expression level of miR-22-3p was downregulated in the AMI group (all P<0.01); compared with the NSTEMI group, the expression level of lncRNA H19 was upregulated and the expression level of miR-22-3p was downregulated in the STEMI group (P<0.01). The areas under the ROC curves (AUC) for the diagnosis of AMI by miR-22-3p, lncRNA H19 and their combination were 0.555, 0.977, and 0.983, respectively. lncRNA H19 was positively correlated with cTnI, CK, CK-MB and CRP (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (P<0.001); miR-22-3p was negatively correlated with cTnI, CK and CRP, and positively correlated with LVEF (P<0.05). ConclusionThe expression level of lncRNA H19 is elevated and the expression level of miR-22-3p decreased in AMI patients, and their levels may have potential value as an auxiliary biomarker for AMI diagnosis and cardiac function assessment.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods The domestic and foreign clinical studies on transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate (observation group), TURP or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (control group) in the treatment of BPH during Jan. 2015 and Mar. 2025 were retrieved. The data were extracted with Cochrane systematic review method. The operation time, decrease in hemoglobin, bladder irrigation time, catheter indwelling time, total complication rate, retrograde ejaculation rate and urinary incontinence rate of the two groups were compared with RevMan 5.3.0 statistical software. Results A total of 5 Chinese studies involving 491 patients (248 in the observation group and 243 in the control group) were included in the Meta-analysis. Compared with the control group, the observation group had shorter operation time [MD=-20.80, 95%CI:-26.88—-14.72, P<0.00001], less decrease in hemoglobin [MD=-10.61, 95%CI: -20.21—-1.01, P=0.03], shorter bladder irrigation time [MD=-17.85, 95%CI: -32.62—-3.09, P=0.002], shorter catheter indwelling time [MD=-1.71, 95%CI: -2.81—- 0.62, P=0.002], lower total complication rate [OR=0.11, 95%CI: 0.06—0.21, P<0.00001], lower retrograde ejaculation rate [OR=0.05, 95%CI: 0.02—0.16, P<0.00001] and lower urinary incontinence rate [OR=0.24, 95%CI: 0.07—0.79, P=0.02]. There were no significant differences in other complications between the two groups (P>0.05). The international erectile function score (IIEF-5) of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group [MD=1.87, 95%CI:1.16—2.57, P<0.00001]. There were no significant differences in international prostate symptom score (IPSS), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) and post-voiding residual (PVR) between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion All three surgical procedures can effectively improve the lower urinary tract symptoms of BPH patients. Compared with TURP or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate, transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate has obvious advantages in terms of perioperative recovery, reduction of total complications, urinary incontinence and retrograde ejaculation rates, and preservation of sexual function.

The prescription Mahuang Shengmatang in the Treatise on Cold Damage (《伤寒论》) has sparked considerable debate among medical practitioners throughout history, with varying opinions on its indications, pathogenesis described in the text, principle of compatibility, and clinical applications. Both ancient and modern interpreters of Mahuang Shengmatang often focus on herbal compatibility as a primary approach to deduce the pathogenesis and treatment methods. Building upon this foundation, this paper utilizes herbal dosage as a clue to discern the primary and secondary herbs in the prescription. It further analyzes the principle of compatibility based on herbal indications, summarizing the indications and therapeutic principles of this prescription. Ultimately, it reveals the underlying pathogenesis reflected in the text. The internal closure of heat and toxin leads to the stagnation of Qi, preventing Yang Qi from reaching the extremities and causing cold hands and feet. When the pathogenic Qi finds no outlet, it floods both the upper and lower regions of the body, attacking the throat and causing cough with expectoration of pus and blood, and descending to the large intestine to consume Yin fluids, resulting in persistent diarrhea. Based on this pathogenesis, the paper expands the scope of symptoms and signs associated with the prescription, providing a more detailed portrayal of the applicable patient population and enhancing the basis for clinical prescription references. Additionally, the paper presents considerations on several controversial topics, suggesting that the "lower pulse" described in the text refers to the lower limb arterial pulsation, and the symptoms and signs resemble those of septic shock in modern medicine. Therefore, Mahuang Shengmatang should be categorized as a prescription for treating warm diseases and it is not developed by ZHANG Zhongjing. By employing a detailed discussion on the syndrome, pathogenesis, and clinical application in the texts of Mahuang Shengmatang from the dosage, principle of compatibility, and herbal indications, this paper not only enriches the theoretical foundation of Mahuang Shengmatang but also provides a comprehensive perspective and fresh ideas for understanding its clinical application.
