Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd∶YAG) laser vitreolysis in the treatment of symptomatic vitreous opacity.Methods:An observational case series study was performed.Forty-four eyes of 44 patients diagnosed as physiological vitreous opacity in Shenzhen Eye Hospital from June 2021 to September 2022 and treated with Nd∶YAG laser vitreolysis were enrolled.Before treatment and 2 months after last treatment, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) evaluated with standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, floater areas calculated through infrared fundus photography, and objective scattering index (OSI) obtained by the Optical Quality Analysis System (OQAS) were recorded.The occurrence of complications during the follow-up period was recorded.The differences in each indicator were compared, and a simple linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between floater area and OSI.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Shenzhen Eye Hospital (No.2021-6-3).Patients were informed of the study methods and purposes.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:There was no significant difference in BCVA before and after Nd∶YAG laser vitreolysis ( t=-0.478, P=0.635).The floater area before laser treatment was (3.043±1.942)mm 2, which was significantly larger than (1.074±0.735)mm 2 after laser treatment ( t=0.769, P<0.001).The OSI before laser treatment was 1.976±0.975, which was significantly greater than 1.560±0.796 after laser treatment ( t=0.730, P<0.001).The results of linear regression analysis showed that the OSI=1.45+ 0.16× floater area ( F=5.681, P=0.020).No patient had visual acuity loss or intraocular pressure increase and no traumatic cataract or retinal damage occurred. Conclusions:After laser treatment, the floater area decreased, the OSI decreased, and the visual quality of patients improved.The OSI from OQAS Ⅱ and floater area can be used as quantitative evaluation indicators to objectively evaluate the effectiveness of Nd∶YAG laser vitreolysis.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of the gastrointestinal endoscopic super minimally invasive surgery (eSMIS) and the laparoscopic minimally invasive procedure (LS) for the treatment of gastric glomus tumors(GGT).Methods:This study retrospectively included 15 patients with GGT who underwent eSMIS at the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from May 2014 to May 2024. Data on demographic characteristics, surgical indexes, efficacy evaluation indexes, postoperative medical disposition, health economics indexes and postoperative laboratory indexes were collected and analyzed, the patients were followed up for survival outcomes and the postoperative quality of life, efficacy and safety of the two groups were compared.Results:The amount of bleeding in the eSMIS group was lower than that in the LS group: 1.25 (0, 3.75) ml vs. 41.56 (10.00, 50.00) ml, and the surgical cost in the eSMIS group was lower than that in the LS group: 10 792.87 (8 424.90, 12 730.30) yuan vs. 21 773.06 (19 940.60, 24 843.10) yuan, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The surgical efficacy, postoperative laboratory indicators and medical treatment convenience between the two groups had no statistical differences ( P>0.05). Conclusions:In the choice of surgical procedures for the treatment of GGT, eSMIS is superior to LS in terms of bleeding and surgical cost, and not inferior to LS in other indicators. This suggested that the treatment of GGT with eSMIS is feasible, safe and effective.

AIM: To study the perception of first-order grating acuity and second-order spatial contrast sensitivity in patients with monocular anisometropia amblyopia.METHODS:A total of 715 children(715 eyes)diagnosed as monocular anisometropia amblyopia in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2022 were collected as amblyopia group, and 745 children(745 eyes)with normal corrected visual acuity were collected. The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), first-order grating acuity and/or second-order spatial contrast sensitivity were measured, repectively. The perception ability of amblyopia patients to first-order grating acuity and second-order spatial contrast sensitivity were analyzed.RESULTS:There were significant differences between amblyopia group and normal control group in the perception of first-order grating acuity(11.58±6.10 vs. 20.27±3.47, P<0.001)and second-order spatial contrast sensitivity(0.33±0.16 vs 0.12±0.04, P<0.001). And there were significant differences between mild-to-moderate amblyopia and severe amblyopia patients in first-order grating acuity(12.10±6.23 vs. 8.13±3.70, P<0.001)and second-order spatial contrast sensitivity(0.32±0.16 vs. 0.37±0.17, P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The first-order and second-order visual pathway of the cerebral cortex in children with monocular anisometropia amblyopia have different degrees of damage. The injury of severe amblyopia is more serious than that of mild-to-moderate amblyopia.

Objective To investigate the clinical and CT features of basal cell adenomas (BCA)of parotid gland,and to improve the understanding of the disease.Methods Clinical and CT data of 1 8 patients with BCA of parotid gland confirmed by surgery and pathology were collected.The characteristics of age,sex,clinical symptom,lesion site,number,size,shape,density and CT dualGphase enhancement of the lesions were retrospectively analyzed.Results (1)Age and sex of onset:1 2 cases(6 6.6 7%)of age stage from 30 to 5 9,5 cases (27.78%)of the elder over 60,1 case of the younger below 29,5 cases (27.78%)for males,1 3cases (72.22%)for females,the incidence ratio of male to female being 1 ︰ 2.5.(2)Clinical manifestations:there were sporadic masses in the parotid region,3 cases were accompanied by mild pain and all patients had no facial nerve symptoms.(3)Location site,number,size:23 lesions in 18 cases, of which 15 cases (83.3%)were single and 3 cases (16.7%)had multiple lesions on one side.17 lesions (73.9%)were located in superficial lobe, and 6 lesions (26.1%)were located in the deep lobe;(4)Shape and cross section diameter:the shape of the tumor was round or ellipse with wellG defined margin,13 cases (56.5%)of the round shape,10 cases (43.5%)of the ellipse;the maximum cross section diameter was (2.49±1.3 8)cm,the superficial lobe group was (2.05 ±1.02)cm,and the deep lobe group was (3.73 ±1.59)cm.The difference between the two groups on the maximum cross section diameter was significant (P＜ 0.05).(5)Density:the density of most lesions was heterogeneous.17 lesions were accompanied by central or peripheral cystic degeneration of varying degrees,of which 10 lesions with cystic regions ＞ 50% and 2 lesions with maximum transverse diameter ＜ 0.8 cm.(6)CT dualGphase enhancement:19 lesions showed obvious homogeneous or heterogeneous enhancement on the arterial phase,and persistent enhancement on the venous phase.4 lesions showed progressive heterogeneous enhancement,and the enhancement degree of venous phase was even higher than that of arterial phase.Conclusion The BCA of the parotid gland aremainly occuring in middleGaged and older women,displaying regular shape of lesions,developing to cystic degeneration easily and presenting＂fastGelevation and sustained enhancement＂or progressive enhancement patterns in the dualGphase enhanced scans.These characteristics are helpful to make a diagnosis preoperatively.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of cervical stability training on cervical vertigo. Methods67 patients were divided into 2 groups. The experiment group was treated with Neurac (neuromuscular activation) for cervical stability training, meanwhile, the control ones with manipulation. They were assessed with clinical assessment and fall index before and 14 d after treatment. ResultsThe scores of clinical assessment and value of fall index were significant improved more in experiment group than in controls （P＜0.05）. ConclusionSpecific cervical stability training is effective on cervical vertigo based on cervical instability and proprioceptive disorder.
