Objective:To establish a prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters.Methods:A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to extract the dataset. The dataset consisted of data collected from January 2022 to January 2023 by the Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University, from children aged 5 to 13 years in 2 key schools and 2 general schools of Yangpu District, Shanghai. Children’s ocular biological parameters, including sex, age, diopter, axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth were collected. The slope of the optimally fitted straight line was calculated using the least squares method. The least square-back propagation (BP) neural network model was established by combining baseline data and the pre-processed rate of the change of ocular biological parameters. The dataset was divided into the training set and the validation set according to the ratio of 8:2 for five-fold cross-validation. The model performance was evaluated by using the mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient R, and coefficient of determination R2. Results:The optimal performances of R2, R, RMSE, MAE, and MSE of the least square-BP neural network model were 0.96, 0.981 9, 0.214 2, 0.139 9 D, 0.045 9, respectively. The regression equation between the predicted value and the true value of the diopter was y=0.97 x+ 0.014 8, R2=0.97, with good correlation. In the internal verification, MAE values of the diopter at three, six, nine, and twelve months of follow-up were 0.110 1, 0.136 0, 0.153 7, and 0.184 8 D, respectively, which achieved clinically acceptable performance (less than 0.25 D). In the external validation, the errors were less than 0.25 D at all ages. Conclusions:A prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters was successfully developed.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by high power lateral green laser in the treatment of T 1a renal tumor. Methods:The clinical data of 10 patients with T1a stage renal tumor from February 2021 to April 2021 in department of urology, Gongli hospital affiliated to Naval Military Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 3 females, aged 47.0-74.0 years, with average of(58.8±9.7)years old. The diameter of the tumor ranged from 2.0 cm to 3.8 cm, with an average of (3.1±0.6)cm. There were 6 cases on the left side and 4 cases on the right side, locate on lumbar side in 9 cases and ventral sied in 1 case. The R. E.N.A.L score was 4.0-6.0, with an average of (5.0±0.8). The preoperative creatinine was 66.9-90.1μmol/L, with an average of (75.1±9.0)μmol/L, preoperative GFR of 44. 6- 67. 3 ml /min, with an average of(56.7±7.7)ml/min, preoperative hemoglobin level of 119.0-156.0g/L, with an average of (135.8±11.4)g/L. All patients underwent laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by 180w lateral green laser, free the surrounding area of the tumor fully and completely expose the renal tumor. The laser fiber was placed through the green laser hand piece, and the fiber was connected with normal saline to wash the strip. The initial green laser vaporization power was set at 80W, and the hemostasis power at 35W.About 3mm away from the edge of the tumor, and one optical fiber away from the renal parenchyma, the renal parenchyma was cut with 80W power. In order to reduce the interference by smoke, high-pressure flushing was used through the optical fiber while vaporizing, and an attractor was used to push and peel the tumor. In case of bleeding during operation, hemostatic power can be used to close the bleeding point and gradually advance until the tumor was completely removed. The wounds of renal inner medulla and renal outer cortex were continuously sutured in 1-3 layers with barbed suture. It involved 9 cases via retroperitoneal approach and 1 case via abdominal approach. The operation time, postoperative hemoglobin decrease, extraction time of negative pressure drainage, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pathology and postoperative complications were recorded, and the serum creatinine level and GFR level of the affected side were followed up 1 month after operation.Results:All the operations were successfully completed, and there was no conversion to open surgery or radical nephrectomy. One case changed to scissors fast resection and sutured hemostasis due to severe intraoperative bleeding. The operation time was 90.0-120.0 min, with the average of (104.5±9.0)min. The postoperative hemoglobin level was 96.0-132.0g/L, with an average of (115.2±11.8)g/L, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The postoperative hemoglobin decreased from 12.0g/L to 25.0g/L, with an average of (20.6±4.6)g/L. The time of vacuum drainage was 5.0-7.0 days, with an average of (5.7±0.7)d. Postoperative hospital stay was 6.0-8.0 days, with an average of (6.7±0.7)d. No bleeding, urinary leakage and other complications occurred in all patients. There were 7 cases of clear cell carcinoma, 2 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma and 1 case of angiomyolipoma. All margins were negative. One month after operation, creatinine ranged from 66.0 to 90.4μmol/L, with an average of (76.8±8.3)μmol/L, which was not significantly different compared with that before operation ( P>0.05). One month after operation, GFR was 45.1-60.8 ml/min, and with an average of (55.5±4.7)ml/min, and there was no significant difference compared with preoperative data( P>0.05). Conclusions:For T 1aN 0M 0 stage and exophytic renal tumors, laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by lateral green laser is safe and effective.

Objective To explore the efficacy and tolerance of adverse reactions of gene detection technique in guiding individualized targeted therapy for advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 62 patients with advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma before and after receiving targeted drug treatment in our department from October 2015 to October 2017.Among the 62 patients,there were 36 males and 26 females,with an average age of (54 ± 13) years old.16 patients were treated with sunitinib,20 patients were treated with sorafenib and 26 patients were treated with pazopanib.A total of 28 patients (individualized group) were selected to receive targeted drug according to the results of gene detection,and 34 patients were treated with targeted drug empirically (empirical group).In individualized group,there were 17 males and 11 females with the average age of (51.3 ± 15.6) years old.20 patients accepted the operation.The distant metastasis included bone metastasis in 21 cases,lung metastasis in 7 cases,liver metastasis in 16 cases,epidermal metastasis in 4 cases and lymphatic metastasis in 14 cases.According to risk of MSKCC,the case number of low risk,moderate risk and high risk were 15,7,6,respectively.7 patients were treated with sunitinib,8 patients were treated with sorafenib and 13 patients were treated with pazopanib.In empirical group,there were 19 males and 15 females with the average age of (56.3 ± 10.1) years old.22 patients accepted the operation.The distant metastasis included bone metastasis in 20 cases,lung metastasis in 5 cases,liver metastasis in 13 cases,epidermal metastasis in 3 cases and lymphatic metastasis in 15 cases.According to risk of MSKCC,the case number of low risk,moderate risk and high risk were 20,g,6,respectively.9 patients were treated with sunitinib,12 patients were treated with sorafenib and 13 patients were treated with pazopanib.The baseline characteristics of the two groups of patients,including gender,age,whether operation was performed,site of metastasis,and risk of MSKCC,didn't show significant difference.Patients in both groups received the standard treatment regimen and the follow-up duration was 4-26 months to observe the efficacy,progression-free survival and tolerance to adverse reactions of the targeted therapy.Results After 12 months of treatment,15 patients in the individualized group was recorded objective remission.7 patients in the empirical group was recorded objective remission,as well.The tumor control efficacy of the individualized group was significantly better than that of the empirical group (46.4％ vs.20.6％,P =0.03).Meanwhile,the median progression-free survival time (15.2 months,3.7-24.2 months) in the individualized group was significantly longer than that in the empirical group (12.1 months,2.8-22.1 months) (P =0.009).Compared with the empirical group,the higher incidence of targeted treatment-related adverse reactions occurred in the individualized group,including thrombocytopenia (46.4％ vs.17.6％ P =0.014),leukopenia (46.4％ vs.17.6％ P =0.005),hypertension (71.4％ vs.44.1％,P =0.031) and hypothyroidism(60.7％ vs.29.4％,P=0.013).Conclusions Compared with the patients with empirical drugs,the application of gene detection technique to select individualized targeted drugs for the treatment of advanced metastatic renal cancer is obvious curatively effective,and to a certain extent extends the progression-free survival time of patients.

AIM:Chronic heart failure (CHF), caused by ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM), is among the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide .Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) plays a criti-cal role in regulating Wnt signaling .Dysregulated Wnt signaling contributes to high incidence of arrhythmias .Thus, there might be an association between genetic variations of LRP6 and sudden cardiac death ( SCD) .The objective of the study was to examine the associ-ation between common variants of LRP6 and prognosis of CHF patients .METHODS:From July 2005 to December 2009, patients with CHF referred from 10 hospitals and participants without structural heart disease in China were undergone a prospective study .The sin-gle-nucleotide polymorphism rs 2302684 was selected to evaluate the effect of LRP6 polymorphisms on the survival of the patients .RE-SULTS:A total of 1 887 patients (1 437 with CHF and 450 in the control group)were finally enrolled for the analysis.During a medi-an follow-up of 61 months, a total of 546 (38.00%) patients died, including 201(36.81%) cases with SCD and 345 (63.19%) ca-ses with NSCD.No end point event occurred in the control group .Patients carrying A allele of rs2302684 had increased risks of all-cause death (P<0.01) and SCD (P<0.01).After adjusted for the other risk factors , the associations remained significant in all-cause death (P<0.01) and SCD (P<0.01).In patients with CHF caused by ICM , those carrying A allele of rs2302684 also had in-creased risks of all-cause death (P<0.01) and SCD (P<0.01).After adjusted for the other risk factors , the associations remained significant in all-cause death (P<0.01) and SCD (P<0.01).However, there was no association between A allele of rs 2302684 and prognosis in patients with CHF caused by NICM .CONCLUSION:The SNP rs2302684 T>A in LRP6 is associated with an increased risk of all-cause death and SCD in patients with CHF in Chinese Han population , and the association is more prevalent in patients with CHF caused by ICM.Thus, LRP6 might be added as a novel predictor of SCD and could provide an attractive and direct therapeutic target in SCD prevention .

Objective To describe the clinical characteristics of idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) with fragmented QRS complex (f-QRS) and J wave in resting electrocardiogram. Methods We reviewed data from 21 case subjects in our hospital who were resuscitated after cardiac arrest due to IVF and assessed the prevalence of f-QRS and J wave in resting electrocardiogram (ECG). All the case subjects were classified among three groups based on the electrocardiographic morphology: group I, both f-QRS and J wave were observed (n = 6), group II, only J wave was observed (n = 9), group III, neither f-QRS nor J wave was observed (n = 6). Population characteristics, history of syncope or sudden cardiac arrest, incidence of ventricular fibrillation (VF), and circumstance of VF were evaluated among the three groups. Results The incidence of index events (syncope, survived cardiac arrest and VF episodes recorded in implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or pacemakers) was 13.4 ± 5.6 per-year in group I, 10.8 ± 3.9 per-year in group II, and 9.8 ± 4.2 per-year in group III. There were significant differences in incidences among the three groups, the most frequent index events were observed in group I. The hazard ratio for incidence was 3.2 (95%CI, 1.1-7.9; P = 0.01). The history and circumstance of the index events were different among the groups. In group I, all the index events occurred during sleep in early morning. In group II, four subjects suffered VF during strenuous physical activities or agitation state, two during sleep in early morning, three in usual activity. In group III, one subject suffered VF during sleep in early morning, one in agitation state, four in usual activity. Conclusions This study suggests that the IVF patients with the combined appearance of f-QRS and J wave in the resting ECG suffer an increased risk of VF, this subgroup of IVF patients has a unique clinical feature.

Primary hepatocellular carcinoma progresses from liver fibrosis and cirrhosis to eventually result in liver failure and distant metastasis.Surgical resection is the preferred method of treatment for liver cancer while interventional treatment and liver transplantation are the choices to treat end-stage liver cancer.Unfortunately,partial hepatectomy and interventional treatment are not ideal due to the resulting consequence of hepatocyte dysfunction.Extensive clinical application of liver transplants is limited by the lack of available donors and high costs.Over the past decade,researches on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs)have made remarkable achievements in the medical field.In this review,we summarize the recent progress of BMSCs in the treatment of liver diseases.

Objective To study the factors influencing the outcome of patients suffering from in-hospital ventricular fibriUation (IHVF), as there have been few studies focusing on this topic. Methods Patients with IHVF collected in a single cardiac center were classified into a successful group and a failure group. Data relevant to the predicting factors of the two groups were compared. Results There were 206 events in the analysis. The most common underlining disease was coronary artery disease (CAD), especially acute myocardial infarction (AMI). On multiple logistic regression analysis, it was shown that the independent predictors for failure of defebriUation were higher NYHA class (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.3-2. 2,P <0.001), higher blood potassium level (OR 2.9, 95% CI 1.9-4.3, P =0.007) and adrenaline usage (OR 25.0, 95% CI 11.5-55. 1, P <0.001). In a AMI sub-group, 56. 9% of the IHVF events occurred within the first day of AMI, and the occurrence descended with time going on within 2 weeks. Before the occurrence of IHVF, the patients with right coronary artery as the infarction related artery (IRA) often suffered from(8/9, 88.9%) bradycardia (R-R interval > 1 s), but those with left anterior descending artery as IRA often showed (8/12, 66.7%) tachycardia (RR interval < 0.6 s). Conclusions The common disease causing IHVF is CAD. The worse the heart function, the higher the rate of IHVF and the worse theprognosis. It IHVF not induced by hypokalemia and use of adrenaline in resuscitation predict lower successful defibrillation rate.
