With the rapid advancement of modern medicine, clinical observations indicate a growing trend of ischemic ocular disease with an increasingly younger age of onset. This condition remains a prominent and challenging focus in ophthalmic clinical practice. Treatment approaches focused solely on ophthalmic interventions yield less than satisfactory clinical outcomes. Some ischemic ocular disease patients concurrently suffer from obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS). These patients show rapid Ischemic ocular disease progression, difficulty in stabilizing blood pressure, and increased susceptibility to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events during ophthalmic treatment. This review primarily examines the correlation between ischemic ocular disease and OSAHS, the pathophysiological changes in ischemic ocular disease patients and the risk factors in OSAHS patients. It aims to provide a theoretical basis for clinical management and disease prevention in this patient population.

Objective In order to understand the current resistance status of Aedes albopictus(Ae. albopictus) adult population to commonly used insecticides and the resistance dynamics development in Zhejiang Province and provide a theoretical basis for the scientific and rational use of hygienic insecticides. Methods Resistance determination was carried out using the diagnostic dose method(GB/T 26347-2010)recommended by WHO in the adult mosquito contact cylinder method to monitor the resistance of Ae. albopictus field populations in 11 cities and districts in Zhejiang Province in 2024. Results The monitoring result showed that adult Ae. albopictus in 11 areas were resistant or suspected resistant populations to both cis-cypermethrin and permethrin; suspected and resistant populations to the organophosphate insecticide malathion were as high as 81.82%; while suspected resistance to the carbamate insecticide residual carbofuran accounted for 45.45%, and the rest of the monitoring sites were sensitive to it. Conclusions The result suggest that the generalized resistance of Ae. albopictus populations to pyrethroids and organophosphorus insecticides in the field in Zhejiang Province needs to be highly emphasized. In future mosquito vector and mosquito-borne disease control, insecticides should be selected based on the resistance monitoring information, while following scientific guidelines for insecticide use.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

Objective:To construct a clinical early warning model for bladder spasm occurred after transurethral resection of the prostate(TURP)in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)based on LASSO regression.Methods:The clinical data of 139 patients with BPH who underwent TURP treatment in Yellow River Sanmenxia Hospital from January 2022 to June 2024 were prospectively selected,and they were divided into spasm group(39 cases)and non-spasm group(100 cases)according to whether bladder spasm occurred after surgery.The characteristics of bladder spasm occurred after TURP in patients with BPH were statistically analyzed,and the general data between the two groups were compared.LASSO regression was used to screen the characteristic variables related to bladder spasm occurred after TURP,multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of bladder spasm after TURP.The prediction model of bladder spasm after TURP was constructed,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to evaluate the efficacy of the prediction model.Results:The incidence of bladder spasm after TURP was 28.06％.There were significant differences in age,history of diabetes,operation time,temperature of irrigating fluid,traction tension of urinary catheter,prostate volume and postoperative hospital stay between non-spasm group and spasm group(P＜0.05).LASSO regression showed that operation time,age,traction tension of urinary catheter,temperature of irrigating fluid,history of diabetes were important characteristics of bladder spasm occurred after TURP.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that old age,history of diabetes and long operation time were independent risk factors of bladder spasm occurred after TURP(P＜0.05).ROC curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the risk prediction model for bladder spasm occurred after TURP was 0.885(95％CI:0.752-0.921).Conclusions:Old age,history of diabetes and long operation time are independent risk factors of bladder spasm occurred after TURP,the clinical warning model based on LASSO regression has a certain value in predicting the risk for bladder spasm occurred after TURP,which helps to identify high-risk patients early.

Objective To propose a brain electrical phase prediction method based on long short-term memory network(LSTM)to improve the accuracy and robustness of phase synchronization prediction in transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS).Methods First,an LSTM consisting of an input layer,an LSTM layer,an ReLU activation layer,a fully connected layer and a regression layer was constructed to capture the EEG signal features through the synergistic action of input gates,forgetting gates and output gates.Second,eye-open resting-state EEG data from 30 healthy subjects were trained using the LSTM to obtain a predictive model for EEG signal and EEG phase prediction.Finally,the LSTM method and the traditional autoregressive(AR)method were compared in terms of the phase prediction errors at the overall and individual levels and the prediction performance for peaks and troughs.A regression model was used to explore the relationships between instantaneous EEG amplitude,signal-to-noise ratio and phase prediction error with the LSTM method.Results The LSTM method achieved a total phase prediction error of 0.04°±5.69°,which was lower than that of the traditional AR method(-3.36°±51.13°).For each subject,the LSTM method demonstrated superior phase prediction accuracy compared to the traditional AR method(P＜0.001).The accuracy for predicting peaks(troughs)by the LSTM method(about 89％)was higher than that by the traditional AR method(about 10％).Unlike the traditional AR method,the LSTM method didnot result in linear relationships between instantaneous EEG amplitude,signal-to-noise ratio and phase prediction error,with Pvalues being 0.58 and 0.18,respectively.Conclusion The LSTM-based brain electrical phase prediction method shows high accuracy and robustness when used for EEG phase-synchronized TMS.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(3):1-8]

Objective:To compare the effect of high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) in the treatment of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted on ARDS children treated with mechanical ventilation in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatric from January 2017 to December 2018.They were randomly (computer digital method) divided into HFOV group and CMV group.The basic data and clinical indicators, such as pediatric critical illness scores, oxygenation index (OI), blood gas, mechanical ventilation time, ventilator parameters, ICU hospitalization time, complications, prognosis, dynamic changes of inflammatory factors, use of sedative muscle relaxants and vasoactive drugs, were recorded.SPSS 22.0 software was used to analyze the data.The Mann Whitney U test was used for inter-group comparison.The χ2 test was adopted for the comparison of counting data. Results:A total of 45 children were included in the analysis.There were 21 cases in the HFOV group and 24 cases in the CMV group.Moderate and severe ARDS was detected in 34 cases, including 16 cases in the HFOV group and 18 cases in the CMV group.Compared with those in the CMV group, the levels of OI-24 h and OI-48 h in the HFOV group were significantly lower [7.4 (5.9, 8.6) vs.9.0 (6.7, 13.6), P=0.018] and [5.9 (5.2, 8.5) vs.9.2 (7.4, 12.4), P=0.001].The levels of OI-6 h [8.2(6.5, 10.0) vs.10.5(8.2, 13.0), P=0.037], OI-12 h[7.8(6.5, 9.0) vs.9.8(8.0, 12.8), P=0.009], OI-24 h [7.7(6.4, 8.6) vs.10.1(8.7, 15.5), P<0.001], OI-48 h [6.0(5.3, 8.6) vs.10.7(8.8, 13.1), P<0.001] and OI-72 h [5.8(5.0, 8.6) vs. 8.0(6.6, 10.6), P=0.031] in children with moderate to severe ARDS of the HFOV group were significantly lower than those of the CMV group.There were no significant differences in ICU hospitalization time, invasive mechanical ventilation time, total mechanical ventilation time, 28-day prognosis, vasoactive drugs, muscle relaxants, blood purification, fluid balance, inflammatory factors, intracranial hemorrhage and pneumothorax between the 2 groups. Conclusions:This study confirms that HFOV can improve the oxygenation level in pediatric patients with ARDS more rapidly than CMV.HFOV does not increase the incidence of complications such as pneumothorax and intracranial hemorrhage, and the use of vasoactive drugs and muscle relaxants, showing safety in clinical application.

OBJECTIVE To understand the current management status of the special campaign for enhancing the pathogen detection rate before antimicrobial therapy in hospitalized patients in China,analyze identified issues dur-ing implementation,and propose improvement suggestions.METHOD A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data from medical institutions participating in the special campaign within the region from May to Jul.2024,covering aspects such as quality control management,coordination mechanisms,data sources,indicator connotations and existing issues.RESULTS Variations were observed among medical institutions in the manage-ment of pathogen detection rates,primarily reflected in inconsistent usage of detection rate indicators,varying im-plementation levels of quality control measures and differences in multi-departmental participation.Additionally,discrepancies in data sources,statistical methods and interpretations of indicator connotations limited the compara-bility of data.CONCLUSIONS To address these issues,improvement measures such as strengthening informatiza-tion construction,standardizing indicator statistical methods and enhancing multi-departmental coordination mech-anisms should be implemented.These efforts will provide a scientific basis for the implementation of special cam-paign and robust support for the rational use of antimicrobial agents.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP), whose etiology is influenced by genetic and clinical risk factors, considerably impacts women's quality of life. However, the genetic underpinnings in non-European populations and comprehensive risk models integrating genetic and clinical factors remain underexplored. This study constructed the first polygenic risk score (PRS) for POP in the Chinese population by utilizing 20 disease-associated variants from the largest existing genome-wide association study. We analyzed a discovery cohort of 576 cases and 623 controls and a validation cohort of 264 cases and 200 controls. Results showed that the case group exhibited a significantly higher PRS than the control group. Moreover, the odds ratio of the top 10% risk group was 2.6 times higher than that of the bottom 10%. A high PRS was significantly correlated with POP occurrence in women older than 50 years old and in those with one or no childbirths. As far as we know, the integrated prediction model, which combined PRS and clinical risk factors, demonstrated better predictive accuracy than other existing PRS models. This combined risk assessment model serves as a robust tool for POP risk prediction and stratification, thereby offering insights into individualized preventive measures and treatment strategies in future clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo elucidate the correlation between alterations in digestion and absorption functions and hepatic deficiency states in aging rats based on the R-spondin1/Wnt3a signaling pathway， and reveal the intervention mechanism of Bugansan. MethodsForty-eight SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly assigned to six groups： blank control， model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （7.03， 14.06， 28.12 g·kg^-1， respectively） Bugansan， and vitamin E （suspension， 27 mg·kg^-1）， with 8 rats in each group. The rat model of aging was established by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactose （400 mg·kg^-1）， while the blank control group was injected with normal saline. Since the day of modeling， rats in intervention groups received corresponding agents by gavage， and those in blank control and model groups received an equal volume of normal saline （10 mL·kg^-1）. General biological features such as fur color， activity， body mass， water intake， and food intake were observed. Meanwhile， the content of malondialdehyde （MDA） and the activities of superoxide dismutase （SOD） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） in the serum were measured to assess aging. Grip strength and the content of total bile acids （TBA） and the activity of α-amylase （AMY） in the serum were measured to evaluate hepatic deficiency states. The activity of β-galactosidase （β-gal） in the duodenum was measured to evaluate intestinal senescence. The levels of glucagon-like peptide-1 （GLP-1）， vasoactive intestinal peptide （VIP）， and D-xylose in the serum were determined to assess digestion and absorption functions of the small intestine. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to observe pathological changes of the duodenum to assess the small intestine damage. Immunohistochemical staining was employed to visualize the expression of B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus integration site 1 （Bmi1） and leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 （Lgr5） in the duodenal tissue. Moreover， Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was utilized to quantify the mRNA levels of Ki67， Bmi1， and Lgr5 to assess proliferation and regeneration of the small intestine. Additionally， the mRNA levels of R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and glycogen synthase kinase-3β （GSK-3β） and the protein levels of R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and phosphorylated GSK-3β （p-GSK-3β） in the duodenum were determined by Real-time PCR and Western blot， respectively， to analyze the mechanisms of intestinal digestion and absorption dysfunction in aging rats and the regulatory characteristics of Bugansan. ResultsCompared with blank control group， the model group showed decreases in body mass， water intake， food intake， grip strength， activities of SOD， GSH-Px， and AMY in the serum and content of GLP-1， VIP and D-xylose in the serum （P<0.05）， increases in the content of MDA and TBA in the serum and β-gal activity in the duodenum （P<0.05）， reductions in villus length， villus width， crypt depth， and villi/crypt （V/C） value， down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Ki67， Lgr5， Bmi1， R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and up-regulated level of GSK-3β， phosphorylation （p）-GSK-3β （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， Bugansan increased the body mass， water intake， food intake， grip strength， and activities of SOD， GSH-Px， and AMY and levels of GLP-1， VIP and D-xylose in the serum （P<0.05）， while decreasing the content of MDA and TBA in the serum and β-gal activity in the duodenum （P<0.05）. Furthermore， Bugansan increased the villus length， villus width， crypt depth， and V/C value， up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Ki67， Lgr5， Bmi1， R-spondin1， Wnt3a， β-catenin， and down-regulated the level of GSK-3β and p-GSK-3β （P<0.05）. ConclusionAging rats exhibit obvious impairments in digestion and absorption functions， accompanied by a state of hepatic deficiency. The traditional Chinese medicine approach of tonifying liver Qi effectively ameliorates aging-related changes by modulating the R-spondin1/Wnt3a signaling pathway to mitigate intestinal senescence and enhance digestion and absorption functions， ultimately contributing to the delay of aging.
