Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)is a vision-threatening ocular emergency with the potential risk of blindness. Pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)is the treatment of choice for RRD, especially for complex retinal detachments such as posterior pole retinal tears, grade B or higher proliferative vitreoretinopathy, and concomitant choroidal detachment. Although most patients achieve good anatomical restoration after surgery, some patients may still experience postoperative symptoms such as distorted vision, abnormal color perception, and lack of improvement in corrected visual acuity. Epiretinal membranes(ERM), as one of the most common complications after RRD, occur in 4% to 13% of cases, which not only affect the recovery of patients' postoperative vision, but also are frequently associated with visual distortion. In severe cases, a second surgical intervention may be required. In recent years, internal limiting membrane peeling(ILMP)has been introduced as an adjunctive procedure in the treatment of RRD, to facilitate retinal reorientation, reduce postoperative complications, and improve patients' postoperative visual quality and quality of life. However, previous studies on the effects of combined intraoperative ILMP on retinal anatomy and visual function recovery are limited. Therefore, this article reviews the mechanism, clinical application, challenges and research progress of ILMP in RRD, providing a reference for surgical decision making, disease assessment, and prognosis evaluation.

Background The decline of physical activity in the elderly due to aging may increase the risk of sarcopenia. Currently, there is a lack of evidence from large natural populations on the relationship between PA and sarcopenia. Objective To explore the relationship between PA and sarcopenia in the elderly aged 60 years and above in 10 provinces (autonomous regions) of China. Methods Data were retrieved from the 2022—2023 round of the China Development and Nutrition Health Impact Cohort. Personal basic information and PA data were collected by questionnaire survey. Skeletal muscle mass was measured by bio-electrical impedance analysis, muscle strength was measured using a grip dynamometer, and physical performance was reflected by 6-meter walk speed. The Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 criteria were used to diagnose sarcopenia. Light physical activity (LPA) duration, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) duration, and total physical activity volume were calculated. A total of 3326 residents aged ≥60 years with complete data were selected as the survey participants. Multiple logistic regression models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess the association between PA duration/volume and sarcopenia. Results In 10 provinces (autonomous regions) of China, the prevalence of sarcopenia in the elderly aged 60 years and above was 5.5% (95%CI: 4.7%, 6.2%). The logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the elderly reporting 0-7.0 h·week⁻¹ in LPA duration, the risk of sarcopenia in the elderly with LPA duration of >14.0-21.0 h·week⁻¹ was reduced by 51% (OR=0.49, 95%CI: 0.26, 0.96). Compared with the elderly with total physical activity ≥15.0 metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-h·week⁻¹, those with <7.5 MET-h·week⁻¹ had a 2.24-fold increased risk of sarcopenia (OR=2.24, 95%CI: 1.17, 4.29). The RCS results found that LPA duration and total physical activity volume each showed a nonlinear dose-response relationship with the risk of sarcopenia (P_overall<0.05, P_non-linear<0.05). Compared with the elderly with an LPA duration of 0 h· week⁻¹, the risk of sarcopenia in the elderly with an LPA duration of 12.6 h· week⁻¹ was the lowest (OR=0.42, 95%CI: 0.21, 0.83). Compared with the elderly with a total physical activity volume of 15.0 MET-h· week⁻¹, the elderly with a total physical activity volume of 46.0 MET-h· week⁻¹ had the lowest risk of sarcopenia (OR=0.57, 95%CI: 0.38, 0.84). There was no statistically significant association between weekly MVPA duration and the risk of sarcopenia (P>0.05). Conclusion Increasing weekly LPA duration and total physical activity volume would help to reduce the risk of sarcopenia.

Objective:To comprehensively search the relevant literature on prone position-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (PP-CPR) in adults at home and abroad, analyze the content, summarize the evidence, and provide reference for clinical health care professionals.Methods:Systematic search of CNKI, China Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed), Wanfang Data, VIP database, PubMed, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Cochran Library, Web of Science, Scopus literature database and other Chinese and English databases was conducted. The search period was from inception to June 15 in 2024. The contents of PP-CPR from randomized controlled trial (RCT), non-RCT (prospective or retrospective), cohort studies and case reports were extracted and systematically analyzed. The search results were standardized by the method of scoping review.Results:A total of 523 articles were obtained through preliminary search, and 14 references and gray literature were retrieved, totaling 537 articles. After strict screening by two researchers, a total of 26 literatures were included, 3 were non-RCT and 23 were case reports, involving 12 countries, including 3 in Chinese, 19 in English, 2 in French, 1 in German, and 1 in Korean. Three non-RCT demonstrated that compared with standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), PP-CPR could produce higher pressure, and provide good respiratory and circulatory support. A total of 25 adult patients were included in the 23 case reports, of which 17 reported total recovery time and 13 reported PP-CPR time ≤ 5 minutes, all of which recovered spontaneous circulation, indicating the effectiveness of PP-CPR technology. In terms of final outcome, 4 patients (16.0%) died and 21 patients (84.0%) survived, indicating that PP-CPR technology could provide timely blood circulation and improve clinical outcomes for prone cardiac arrest patients. Among the 11 patients who reported complications after resuscitation, no neurological damage was found in the short-term outcomes, indicating that PP-CPR technology had a certain level of safety.Conclusions:PP-CPR can provide timely blood circulation for patients with cardiac arrest who are unable to lie supine quickly, and win "golden time" for defibrillation and further treatment. In clinical practice, medical staff need to evaluate the emergency environment, the number of rescuers and the specific condition of the patient, and implement first aid as soon as possible, so as to reduce the time of no blood flow in the vital organs of patients with cardiac arrest in prone position, and improve the clinical prognosis.

Objective　To analyze the epidemic characteristics of dengue fever in Yunnan Province and explore whether the prevention and control measures taken during the COVID-19 epidemic in Yunnan Province have impacted the epidemic situation of dengue fever, providing a scientific basis for formulating more targeted prevention and control strategies. 　　　Methods The epidemiological characteristics of dengue fever in Yunnan Province from 2013 to 2023 were analyzed. The data of dengue fever cases from 2013 to 2019 were selected to establish an Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model to predict the number of dengue fever cases from 2020 to 2022. The predicted values were compared with the actual observed values. Results　A total of 28 131 cases of dengue fever were reported in Yunnan Province from 2013 to 2023, including 24 209 local cases and 3 922 overseas imported cases, with an average annual reported incidence of 5.35/100 000. There was only one peak incidence per year, mainly distributed from July to November. Dengue fever cases were reported in all states and cities in Yunnan Province, with the top four regions having the highest average annual incidence rates being Xishuangbanna (117.34/100 000), Dehong (56.93/100 000), Lincang (8.44/100 000), and Puer (3.12/100 000). The male-to-female ratio was 1.08∶1, with the age group predominantly from 20 to 50 years. The main occupations of the cases were farmers, commercial service, housework, and the unemployed. Using SPSS software, an ARIMA (0,0,1)(1,2,0)12 model was fitted to the dengue case data from 2013 to 2019, showing good fitting results. The model was used to predict the number of dengue fever cases in each month in Yunnan Province from 2020 to 2022, with only a few of the actual values falling within the 95% confidence interval of the predicted values. Conclusions　The various prevention and control measures effectively reduced the number of reported cases of dengue fever. With the continuous optimization and adjustment of the prevention and control policy of COVID-19, new requirements for dengue fever prevention efforts should be put forward, implementing more precise control strategies.

Objective:To explore the application effect of Internet-based hospital-institution linkage care management model in elderly care for the elderly of dementia.Methods:The research was a quasi-experiment study. A total of 80 elderly people of dementia from three combined medical and nursing institutions, Beijing Fangshan District Mental Health Care Hospital, Beijing Jinhai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Beijing Yiciyuan Nursing Care Center, were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling. The elderly people of dementia enrolled from May to August 2021 served as the control group, and elderly people of dementia enrolled from September to December 2021 served as the experimental group, with 40 cases in each group. Conventional management methods were taken in the control group, while Internet-based hospital-institution linkage care management model was taken in the experimental group. Before the intervention, at 3 months of intervention, the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Barthel index (BI) and Cohen Mansfield agitation behavior inventory (CMAI) were used to evaluate the cognitive function, activities of daily living and agitation behavior of two groups.Results:A total of 78 cases were included, including 39 cases in the experimental group and 39 cases in the control group, respectively. Before intervention, there was no significant difference in scores of MMSE, BI, and CMAI in the two groups of elderly people with dementia ( P>0.05). After 3 months of intervention, the score of MMSE in the experimental group was (17.36±5.67) points, which was higher than (15.05 ± 2.70) points of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.13, P<0.05). The score of CMAI in the experimental group was (34.18 ± 4.37) points, which was lower than (37.13 ± 5.06) points of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.76, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in BI scores ( t=0.13, P>0.05). Conclusions:The Internet-based hospital-institution linkage care management model improves the cognitive function and agitated behavior of the elderly with dementia in medical-nursing institutions.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province from 2004 to 2021, to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control strategies. Methods The data on outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province from 2004 to 2021 from the National Emergency Public Health Events Information Management System and on-site epidemiological surveys were collected and analyzed using descriptive epidemiology method. Results From 2004 to 2021, a total of 1 806 outbreaks of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province was reported. The majority of the reports were of general events (90.25%), affecting 2 183 493 people with reported cases numbering 94 643 and 13 deaths. The main modes of transmission were respiratory infectious diseases. The top three reported diseases were chickenpox (588), influenza (300) and hand-foot-and-mouth disease (267), accounting for 64.0% of the total reported events. The events were distributed in 121 counties and districts throughout the province, concentrated in March–June and September–January of the following year. The main outbreaks were of chickenpox, with an average duration of 19 days. Most public health emergencies (1 386) occurred in kindergartens and primary schools, and the median time to discover the outbreak was 7 days (ranging from 4 to 13 days). Conclusions Respiratory infectious diseases are the main type of outbreak of infectious diseases in schools in Yunnan Province. Kindergartens and primary schools are the focus of prevention and control. Early reporting and effective handling will help control the spread of events and reduce hazards. At the same time, the prevention and control of school infectious diseases and the emergency drill of the plan during peak periods need to be particularly strengthened.

BACKGROUND: Nasal insertion is the preferred method for non-intubated patients in flexible bronchoscopy; however, the relatively narrow nasal cavity results in difficulties related to bronchoscope insertion. This study aimed to investigate whether pre-operative nasal probe tests could reduce the time to pass the glottis, improve the first-pass success rate and patients' tolerance, and reduce postoperative bleeding. METHODS: This three-arm prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted in a tertiary hospital between May and October 2020. Three hundred patients requiring diagnosis and treatment using flexible bronchoscopy were randomly allocated to three groups: control group, simple cotton bud detection group (CD group), and adrenaline + lidocaine detection group (AD group). The primary outcome was the time to pass the glottis. Secondary outcomes included the first-pass success rate, the patients' tolerance scores, and post-operative bleeding. One-way analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, and Bonferroni's multiple comparison tests were used in this study. RESULTS: In total, 189 men and 111 women were enrolled in this study, with a mean age of 55.72 ± 12.86 years. The insertion time was significantly shorter in the AD group than in the control group (18.00 s [12.00-26.50 s] vs . 24.00 s [14.50-45.50 s], P = 0.005). Both the AD (99% vs . 83%, χ2 = 15.62, P < 0.001) and CD groups (94% vs . 83%, χ2 = 5.94, P = 0.015) had a significantly higher first-pass success rate than the control group. Compared with the control group, post-operative bleeding (1% vs . 13%, χ2 = 11.06, P < 0.001) was significantly lower in the AD group. However, no significant difference was found in the patients' tolerance scores. CONCLUSIONS: Pre-operative nasal cavity probe tests especially with adrenaline and lidocaine during flexible bronchoscopy can significantly reduce the time to pass the glottis, improve the first-pass success rate, and reduce post-operative nasal bleeding. Pre-operative nasal probe tests are recommended as a time-saving procedure for patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy.

Metformin is currently a strong candidate anti-tumor agent in multiple cancers. However, its anti-tumor effectiveness varies among different cancers or subpopulations, potentially due to tumor heterogeneity. It thus remains unclear which hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patient subpopulation(s) can benefit from metformin treatment. Here, through a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9-based knockout screen, we find that DOCK1 levels determine the anti-tumor effects of metformin and that DOCK1 is a synthetic lethal target of metformin in HCC. Mechanistically, metformin promotes DOCK1 phosphorylation, which activates RAC1 to facilitate cell survival, leading to metformin resistance. The DOCK1-selective inhibitor, TBOPP, potentiates anti-tumor activity by metformin in vitro in liver cancer cell lines and patient-derived HCC organoids, and in vivo in xenografted liver cancer cells and immunocompetent mouse liver cancer models. Notably, metformin improves overall survival of HCC patients with low DOCK1 levels but not among patients with high DOCK1 expression. This study shows that metformin effectiveness depends on DOCK1 levels and that combining metformin with DOCK1 inhibition may provide a promising personalized therapeutic strategy for metformin-resistant HCC patients.

OBJECTIVE To conduct the pharmacoeconomic evaluation of empagliflozin in the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction （HFrEF），and to provide evidence-based reference for rational drug use and medical and healthy decision-making. METHODS A Markov model was used to perform a cost-effectiveness analysis of the regimen of empagliflozin in the treatment of HFrEF ，and to evaluate the cost and effectiveness of standard treatment plan plus empagliflozin （empagliflozin group）vs. standard treatment plan （standard treatment group ）. Clinical parameters were obtained from the EMPEROR-Reduced study；cost and utility data came from the published literatures. The cycle of the model was 1 month and the simulation time was 20 years. Single-factor sensitivity analysis and probability sensitivity analysis were performed to validate the results of cost-effectiveness analysis. RESULTS Compared with the standard treatment group ，each additional quality-adjusted life year in the empagliflozin group cost 37 995.94 yuan more ，which was less than China ’s 1 time GDP per capita in 2020（72 447 yuan）. The results of single factor sensitivity analysis showed that steady-state hospitalization rate of 2 groups was the most important factor affecting the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio . The results of probability sensitivity analysis showed that when the willingness-to-pay threshold （WTP）was 1 time GDP per capita in 2020（72 447 yuan），the probability of empagliflozin group with cost-effectiveness advantage was 58.8％；when the WTP was 3 times GDP per capita in 2020（217 341 yuan），the probability of empagliflozin group with cost-effectiveness advantage was 63.8％. CONCLUSIONS Compared with standard treatment plan alone，standard treatment plan plus empagliflozin is more cost-effective in the treatment of HFrEF. However ，the economic probability is not high.
