The abnormal rate in the 6-month to 1-year-old group was 44.60%, in the >1 to 2 years old group was 26.02%, in the >2 to 3 years old group was 15.58%, in the >3 to 4 years old group was 10.86%, in the >4 to 5 years old group was 21.91%, in the >5 to 6 years old group was 23.27%, and the total refractive abnormal rate for children aged 6 mo to 6 years old was 22.61%. The refractive abnormal rate generally showed a decreasing trend with increasing age(P<0.001); the refractive abnormal rate in boys aged 6-month to 6 years old was 12.33%, and in girls was 10.28%, with no statistically significant difference in the abnormal rate between boys and girls(P>0.05); among children aged 6-month to 6 years old, the abnormal rate of single-eye myopia was 0.98%, of single-eye hyperopia was 5.41%, of single-eye astigmatism was 9.92%, of binocular myopia was 0.98%, of binocular hyperopia was 2.79%, and of binocular astigmatism was 8.14%; the prevalence of astigmatism in children aged 6-month to 1-year-old was 40.38%, in those aged >1 to 2 years old was 19.82%, in those aged >2 to 3 years old was 12.34%, in those aged >3 to 4 years old was 9.05%, in those aged >4 to 5 years old was 18.81%, and in those aged >5 to 6 years old was 16.89%; the prevalence of astigmatism in children aged 6-month to 6 years old was 18.06%. The abnormal rate of astigmatism in the four age groups ranging from 6-month to 4 years old decreased continuously with age(P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in the abnormal rate of astigmatism between the >4 to 5 years old group and the >5 to 6 years old group(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Refractive error has become a common eye disease among preschool children. Through early vision screening, establishing a systematic refractive management file, and early intervention, the best treatment period can be seized to avoid missing it and causing adverse consequences.

BACKGROUND:Periprosthetic fracture of the femoral of the knee after total knee arthroplasty is one of the common complications,and there is a lack of biomechanical research on the periprosthetic fractures of the femoral of the knee under different bone strength conditions.The three-dimensional finite element analysis can provide a biomechanical basis for clinical practice. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biomechanical changes of anterior femoral notching after total knee arthroplasty under different bone strengths,and to provide a mechanical basis for the clinical prevention of supracondylar femoral periprosthetic fractures after knee arthroplasty. METHODS:The femoral CT data of healthy adults were obtained,and the three-dimensional model of femoral lateral replacement of the knee joint was established by Mimics,Geomagic studio,and Solidworks software.Anterior femoral notching models of different depths were constructed,and the models were imported into ANSYS software to analyze the changes of biological stress on the femoral condyle with different bone strengths and different anterior femoral notching depths.The stress changes of the femoral anterior condyle section after and before the filling of anterior femoral notching with bone cement were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Under any bone strength,the supracondylar stress increased with the depth of anterior femoral notching.In normal bone conditions,there was a stress abrupt change point when the anterior femoral notching depth was between 3 mm and 4 mm.In the case of osteoporosis,there was a stress abrupt point when the anterior femoral notching depth was between 2 mm and 3 mm.(2)When anterior femoral notching occurred during knee arthroplasty and the depth exceeded the thickness of the bone cortex,the supracondylar stress of the femoral gradually increased as the bone strength decreased.(3)The stress of the anterior femoral condyle section decreased when the model with an anterior femoral notching depth of 3 mm was filled with bone cement.(4)The results show that anterior femoral notching should be avoided during knee arthroplasty,especially in patients with osteoporosis.If anterior femoral notching occurs during surgery,bone cement can be used to evenly fill the anterior femoral notching to reduce the supracondylar stress of the femur and reduce the incidence of periprosthetic fractures of the femoral joint

OBJECTIVE To screen for GJB2,mitochondrial DNA12S rRNA 1555A>G and SLC26A4 gene mutations in 27 non syndromic hereditary hearing loss families,clarify the genetic causes.METHODS 125 members from 27 deaf families were for questionnaire surveys,audiological examinations,and peripheral blood DNA extraction.The GJB2,SLC26A4,and mitochondrial DNA A1555G coding regions were amplified and directly sequenced.RESULTS Twelve families and 52 individuals were screened for deafness gene mutations,the detection rate in 27 families was 44%(12/27),and the detection rate in all the members was 42%(52/125).The detection rate of gene mutation for GJB2 is 31%(39/125),for SLC26A4 is 6%(8/125),and for mitochondrial DNA1555A>G mutation is 4%(5/125).CONCLUSION GJB2,SLC26A4 and mitochondrial A1555G have a high detection rate in families with hereditary deafness.Mutation screening of these three genes can clarify the genetic causes of most deafness families and can be used as genetic screening targets for hereditary deaf families.

Objective To establish a stable and reproducible animal model of abdominal intestinal firearm penetrating injury in a cold high-altitude environment.Methods Twenty landrace pigs were randomly and equally assigned to a low-altitude normal temperature(LN)group and a high-altitude cold(HC)group.The HC group was placed in a cold environment at high altitudes,and the LN group was placed in a normal-temperature environment at low altitudes.They were raised for 48 hours respectively.After anesthesia,they were suspended on the shooting range,and the right lower abdomen of the experimental pigs was shot with a gun.After injury,they were simply bandaged and transported back to the laboratory for observation in the normal temperature environment of the low altitudes.The vital signs and injuries at 0,2,4,8,12 and 24 h and 24 h survival rates of experimental pigs were compared.Laparotomy was immediately performed on the dead pigs and the experimental pigs still alive at 24 h to explore the injuries and observe the pathology of the small intestine and colon.Results The 24 h survival rate of the HC group was 70％,with no statistically significant difference compared to the LN group's 90％(P＞0.05).After the injury,the body temperature of both groups gradually increased.The body temperature of the HC group was significantly higher than the LN group at 0,2,4 and 8 h time points(P＜0.001),and the LN group exceeded the HC group at 24 h(P＜0.05).Both groups showed an initial increase followed by a decrease in heart rate,with the HC group significantly higher than the LN group only at 0 h(P＜0.01),and no statistically significant differences were observed at other time points(P＞0.05).Both groups showed an early increase and later decrease in respiratory rate,with the HC group higher than the LN group at 0,4,8,12 and 24 h(P＜0.05 or P＜0.001).There was no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05)between the HC group and the LN group in small intestine rupture,small intestine contusion,mesenteric injury,colon rupture and wound diameter.The pathology of the small intestine and colon in the HC group showed extensive necrosis and shedding of the mucosa layer,severe congestion and edema of the submucosa,and extensive lymphocyte infiltration.The LN group also showed similar symptoms but to a lesser extent.Conclusion This study established a pig model of abdominal firearm intestinal perforation injury in a cold environment at high-altitudes.The model has strong operability and stable damage,which can provide a reference for subsequent research.

Objective:To prepare the anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) nanoantibody P3C8-C3Fab by ligating with C3Fab and to investigate its role in plasma half-life.Methods:The C3Fab peptide derived from protein G was molecularly fused with the nanobody P3C8 by DNA recombination technology. The nanoantibody P3C8-C3Fab was inducibly expressed and purified in the E. coli BL21 strain, and the binding of it to PD-L1 protein, mouse IgG, and PD-L1-expressing tumor cells was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The residual P3C8-C3Fab was detected in mouse serum at different times using double-antibody sandwich ELISA to assess the prolongation of the plasma half-life of PD-L1 nanobodies by C3Fab. Results:The nanoantibody P3C8-C3Fab was successfully constructed, and it could efficiently express itself in soluble form in BL21. The purified NbP3C8-C3Fab protein was obtained with a mass fraction of about 90% at a yield of 7.18 mg/L. The affinity of P3C8-C3Fab for PD-L1 protein and mouse IgG gradually increased with increasing mass concentration and showed a concentration correlation. The binding of P3C8-C3Fab to lung cancer A549 cells showed a concentration correlation. The concentration standard curve of P3C8-C3Fab in mouse serum showed a typical S-shape with a concentration correlation. The plasma half-life of P3C8 was only 0.44 h, while the plasma half-life of P3C8-C3Fab was 21.27-fold higher, up to 9.36 h.Conclusions:The linkage of C3Fab to the nanobodies of P3C8 can significantly prolong the plasma half-life of P3C8, which is valuable for the improvement of in vivo nanobody effects.

BACKGROUND:In implant restoration in the aesthetic area,zirconium dioxide is gradually becoming the most commonly used upper restorative material and has achieved better clinical results.Resin-ceramic composite,a new type of dental restorative material,begins to try to be used as an upper restorative material in implant restoration,but there is less research on the application of this material in implant restoration. OBJECTIVE:To compare the biomechanical differences between resin ceramic crowns and zirconia all-ceramic crown implant restorations in three occlusal relationships for restoring maxillary central incisors. METHODS:The cone-beam CT image data of a patient with single-crown implant restoration of maxillary central incisor were selected,and the maxillary bone model was extracted by using Mimics 21.0 software,and the model was imported into Solidworks 2020 software.The crown,adhesive,abutment,central screw,and implant were modeled,and the model of single-crown implant restoration of maxillary central incisor was assembled.After giving the model material property parameters(resin-ceramic composite and zirconia for the upper restoration materials)in ANSYS Workbench 2021 R1 software,three occlusal relationships(edge-to-edge occlusion,normal overjet and deep overbite)were simulated and loaded to analyze the stress distribution of the resin-ceramic crown and zirconia all-ceramic crown implant restoration models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The stress concentration areas in the implant restoration models of the resin-ceramic crown group and the zirconia all-ceramic crown group in different occlusal relationships were distributed in the upper restoration loading point,the abutment-implant connection,the implant neck and the surrounding bone tissue.As the occlusal relationship changed from the edge-to-edge to normal and deep overbite,the peak equivalent forces of the restorative abutment,central screw,implant,and bone tissue in both the resin-ceramic and zirconia all-ceramic crown groups gradually decreased.The highest peak equivalent forces were observed for the upper restorations in deep overbite.The zirconia all-ceramic crown group had the highest peak equivalent force in the adhesive layer in the edge-to-edge relationship,and the resin-ceramic crown group had the highest peak equivalent force in the adhesive layer in the deep overbite.(2)In the edge-to-edge occlusion,the peak equivalent force of the adhesive layer and central screw in the resin-ceramic crown group was slightly smaller than that in the zirconia all-ceramic crown group,and there was no significant difference between the two groups in the peak equivalent force at the upper restoration,restoration abutment,implant,and bone tissue.The peak stresses in the upper restoration,adhesive layer,and central screw of the resin-ceramic crown group were slightly less than those of the zirconia all-ceramic crown group at normal fit,and there were no significant differences between the two groups in the peak equivalent forces at the restoration abutment,implant,and bone tissue.In deep overbite,the peak adhesive,abutment,and central screw stresses were greater in the resin-ceramic crown group than in the zirconia all-ceramic crown group,with no significant differences in the upper restorations,implants,or bone tissue.(3)The results showed that the upper restorative material had no significant effect on the stress distribution of the implant and bone tissue,and had some effects on the stress distribution of the upper restoration,adhesive,restoration abutment,and central screw,but the difference was not significant.The occlusal relationship has a significant influence on the stress distribution in all structures and bone tissue of the implant restoration.The resin-ceramic crowns have a buffering effect on the stresses in the case of edge-to-edge and normal occlusion.

ObjectiveTo investigate the immunological characteristics of the patients with aplastic anemia （AA） and elevated hemogram parameters treated with Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine and the predictive effects of immunological indexes on elevated hemogram parameters， thus providing a reference for the prediction of the treatment efficacy and the adjustment of the treatment regimen. MethodA retrospective study was conducted， involving 77 AA patients treated with Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine for 6 months in 19 medical institutions including Xiyuan Hospital， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from September 2018 to March 2021. The patients were assigned into two groups according to the elevations in hemogram parameters ［including hemoglobin （HGB）， white blood cell count （WBC）， platelet （PLT）， and absolute neutrophil count （ANC）］ after 6 months of treatment. One group had the elevation <50%， and the other group had the elevation ≥50% compared with the baseline. The clinical and immunological characteristics were compared between the two groups. Result① Compared with the group with HGB elevation<50%， the group with HGB elevation≥50% showed elevated level of CD3⁺ human leukocyte antigen-DR （HLA-DR）⁺ and increased proportion of patients with T-helper cell type 2 （Th2）<5%， CD8⁺≥50%， and CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺≥9% before treatment （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD8⁺≥50% before treatment was the independent influencing factor for HGB elevation ≥50% ［odds ratio （OR）=12.000， 95% confidence interval （CI） 2.218， 64.928， P<0.01］. ② Compared with the group with WBC elevation<50%， the group with WBC elevation≥50% showed increased proportion of patients with CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<6% and T-box transcription factor （T-bet）≥200% before treatment （P<0.05）. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<6% （OR=2.998， 95%CI 1.036， 8.680， P<0.05） and T-bet≥200% （OR=3.634， 95%CI 1.076， 12.273， P<0.05） before treatment were independent influencing factors for WBC elevation≥50%. ③ Compared with the group with PLT elevation<50%， the group with PLT elevation≥50% presented lowered Th1 and CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺ levels and increased proportion of patients with Th1<12%， CD4⁺≥6%， and CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<5% before treatment （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<5% before treatment was the independent influencing factor for PLT elevation≥50% （OR=16.190， 95%CI of 3.430 to 76.434， P<0.01）. ④ Compared with the group with ANC elevation<50%， the group with ANC elevation≥50% showed no significant changes in the hemogram parameters before treatment. ConclusionAs for the AA patients with rapid elevation in HGB， Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine demonstrate significant effects in the patients with Th2<5% and CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺≥9%， especially those with CD8⁺≥50%. As for the AA patients with rapid elevation in WBC， the therapy was particularly effective in the patients with CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<6% and T-bet≥200%. As for the AA patients with rapid growth in PLT， the therapy was particularly effective in the patients with Th1<12% and CD4⁺≥6%， especially those with CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺<5%.

Objective To analyze the relationship between expression levels of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)LINC00342 and microRNA-203a-3p(miR-203a-3p)in colorectal cancer tissue and the prognosis of patients within 5 years after surgery.Methods Samples of colorectal cancer tissue and paracancer tissue of 133 patients with colorectal cancer were collected.Expression levels of LncRNA LINC00342 and miR-203a-3p were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.Survival and death were recorded after 5 years of follow-up.The LncRNA LINC00342 and miR-203a-3p expressions and clinicopathological parameters in patients under different conditions were compared.The correlation between expressions of LncRNA LINC00342 and miR-203a-3p in colorectal cancer tissue was analyzed,and their predictive value for the prognosis was also analyzed.Results The expression level of LncRNA LINC00342 was higher in colorectal cancer tissue than that in paracancer tissue,and the expression level of miR-203a-3p was lower in colorectal cancer tissue than that in paracancer tissue(P＜0.05).The expression levels of LncRNA LINC00342 and miR-203a-3p in colorectal cancer tissue were negatively correlated(P＜0.05).The proportion of patients with low tumor differentiation,TNM stage Ⅲ and lymph node metastasis were higher in the LncRNA LINC00342 high expression group and the miR-203a-3p low expression group than those in the LncRNA LINC00342 low expression group and the miR-203a-3p high expression group,respectively(P＜0.05).The 5-year overall survival rate after operation was lower in the LncRNA LINC00342 high expression group and the miR-203a-3p low expression group(P＜0.05).The proportion of patients with low tumor differentiation,TNM stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis,and higher expression level of LncRNA LINC00342 were higher in colorectal cancer tissue of the death group than those in the survival group,and the expression level of miR-203a-3p was lower than that in the survival group(P＜0.05).Low tumor differentiation,TNM stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis,high expression of LncRNA LINC00342 and low expression of miR-203a-3p were independent risk factors for death within 5 years after colorectal cancer surgery(P＜0.05).The combined predictive value of LncRNA LINC00342 and miR-203a-3p for prognosis was greater than that of individual prediction.Conclusion LncRNA LINC00342 is higher expressed and miR-203a-3p is lower expressed in colorectal cancer tissue,and the combined detection of the two is expected to become a clinical evaluation indicator for predicting postoperative survival.

Based on the theory of "disease involving both dryness and dampness"， it is believed that the complex of dryness and dampness and the mutual stalemate between them produce the disease， forming a pathological state of dampness within dryness and dryness within dampness. The two can occur accompanied by each other， transform into each other， and coexist as a disease. According to the clinical characteristics of sjögren's syndrome-related dry eye disease （SS-DED）， it is believed that its symptoms can reflect the pathological state of coexistence of dryness and dampness， and that "disease involving both dryness and dampness" is the key pathogenesis. The main treatment principles are performing both purgation and tonification， and treating the dryness and dampness simultaneously. The treatment should focus on rectifying qi， fortifying spleen and dispelling dampness， as well as opening orifices， nou-rishing yin and moistening dryness， usually with Shashen Maidong Decoction （沙参麦冬汤） and Xiangsha Liujunzi Decoction （香砂六君子汤） in modifications. The theory of "disease involving both dryness and dampness" is expected to provide ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of SS-DED.

Objective To observe the changes to,and possible mechanism of,intestinal permeability in pigs without direct injury after an abdominal-and intestinal-penetrating injury from firearms in cold environment at high altitudes.Methods Fifty-five experimental pigs were divided into two groups:high-altitude cold group(HC)and low-altitude normal temperature group(LN).According to the observation time,each group was divided into five experimental subgroups:0h,2h,4 h,8h,and 24 h.There were six pigs in each HC subgroup and five pigs in each LN subgroup.After euthanasia,intestinal tissues were taken,and the levels of the inflammatory factors TNF-α,and IL-6 in intestinal homogenate and the concentrations of intestinal permeability-related proteins DAO and D-lactate acid in blood were detected by ELISA method.The intestinal tissues of experimental pigs were taken at 0 h and 8 h for LN and 8 h for HC,and intestinal pathological changes were observed and scored after HE staining.The concentrations of Occludin,ZO-1,Claudin-3,TLR4,NF-κB,and MLCK(proteins related to intestinal permeability)were detected by Western blot to explore the effect of a cold environment at high altitude on secondary intestinal permeability changes after injury and the possible mechanisms.Results Both the HC group and LN group experienced typical abdominal intestinal penetrating injuries,and there were no significant differences in their abdominal infection scores or intestinal adhesion(P＞0.05).The levels of DAO and D-LA in the serum of experimental pigs in the HC and LN groups gradually increased over time.The levels of DAO and D-LA in the HC group were significantly higher than those in the LN group at all time points(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The fastest increase in DAO and D-LA in the HC group was 4 h to 8 h,while in the LN group,it was 8 h to 24 h.The pathological score of intestinal tissue in the HC group was significantly higher than that in the LN group of experimental pigs(P＜0.01).The inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6 both increased over time in the intestinal tissue of LN and HC groups.The most significant time point for a increase of inflammatory factors in the HC group was 4 h to 8 h,while in the LN group,it was 8 h to 24 h.The intestinal tissue IL-6 and TNF-α levels of experimental pigs in the HC group were higher than those in the LN group the entire time(P＜0.05,P＜0.01,or P＜0.001).The levels of occludin and ZO-1 in the HC group at 8 h decreased significantly compared to those of the LN group at the 8 h time point(P＜0.05),while claudin-3 showed a significant decrease in LN(P＜0.001).In the HC group,TLR4,NF-κB,and MLCK were both higher than those in the LN group at 8 h,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions A high-altitude cold environment can lead to a secondary increase in intestinal permeability after abdominal-penetrating firearm injury,and its mechanism may be related to the TLR4/NF-κB/MLCK pathway.
