Objective To predict the risk of coronary atherosclerosis using cerebral small vessel disease and cerebral artery stenosis in order to assist early identification of coronary artery disease(CHD).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 130 patients(aged≥65 years)who underwent cerebral MRI,magnetic resonance angiography(MRA),and coronary computed tomo-graphy angiography in the Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 2019 and December 2024.Based on coronary computed tomography angiography results,the patients were categorized into an asymptomatic CHD group(56 cases)and a non-CHD group(74 cases).Cerebral MRI and MRA were used to assess white matter hyperintensity,enlarged perivascular spaces,lacunar infarcts,cerebral microbleeds(CMB)scores,total score of cerebral small vessel disease and degree of cerebral artery stenosis.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the clinical and radiological indicators related to CHD.Then a predictive model was constructed,and then its performance in early predicting CHD was evaluated.Results Blood glucose,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,CMB score≥ 1,and≥50％stenosis of the posterior cerebral artery were independent risk factors for CHD(P＜0.05).The combined predictive model integrating clinical indicators,cerebral small vessel disease,and cerebral artery stenosis demonstrated the best performance,with an AUC value of 0.867(95％CI:0.807-0.927),outperforming the clinical model and the clinical-cerebral small vessel disease model.Conclusion cerebral small vessel dis-ease and cerebral artery stenosis are closely related to coronary atherosclerosis.The predictive model integrating clinical features and cerebrovascular disease imaging markers provides impor-tant reference for early screening of CHD.

The global prevalence of myopia is increasing year by year, leading to many ocular health issues and social problems. In recent years, it has been confirmed that peripheral defocus is closely related to the occurrence and development of myopia. Alteration of the state of peripheral defocus can significantly influence the progression of myopia and emmetropization, but the exact mechanisms are still unclear. At present, there is no method that can completely control myopia. Nowadays, the main controlling methods, including orthokeratology lens, peripheral defocus lens and multi-focal soft lens, have been confirmed to be closely related to peripheral defocus. In this paper, we will review and summarize the development and effect of these peripheral defocus relating control methods. In addition, the researches on the related mechanisms of peripheral retinal defocus and myopia prevention and control at home and abroad are reviewed, as well as the potential mechanisms of peripheral defocus, with a view to further improving the controlling effects of existing methods, developing new prevention and control methods and reducing the incidence and progression of myopia.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and conformity of cone contrast test (CCT) and pseudoisochromatic plate test applied in medical selection of pilot.Methods:One hundred and sixteen male students were selected from pilot candidates by stratified sampling method. All students were tested the pseudoisochromatic plate test and the red, green, and blue cone contrast sensitivity and were divided into normal group, color weakness group and color blindness group according to the results of the pseudoisochromatic plate test. The students with a CCT score below 75 were judged as color vision anomalopia. The coincidence rates of the 2 detection results were compared and analyzed.Results:There were 76 students in normal group, 9 students in color weakness group and 31 students in color blindness group. Students with color vision abnormalities were mainly characterized by red-green color blindness and green color weakness, manifested by a significant decrease in CCT scores of red and green ( P=0.012 or <0.001), but there was no significant difference in the blue CCT scores among 3 groups (both P>0.05). The CCT scores of normal students were not less than 75 points, which meant that the compliance rate was 100%. The proportion of students in the color blindness group below 75 points was 29/31 (with a conformity rate of 93.5%), while the proportion in the color weakness group was 2/9. Conclusions:The conclusions of CCT and pseudoisochromatic plate test for identifying color blindness and normal students are basically consistent, but the conformity rate for identifying color weakness assessment by pseudoisochromatic plate test is relatively low. It is suggested that CCT would be the complement for identifying color weakness and marginal color vision abnormalities in the medical selection for pilot.

Objectives:To examine the influence of the proportion of pathological subtypes on the prognosis of stage ⅠA lung adenocarcinoma cases, and to explore the association between the presence/absence of solid or micropapillary (S/M) components and survival outcome.Methods:Totally 321 patients with stage ⅠA lung adenocarcinoma who received complete surgical resection at Department of Thoracic Surgery, Tongji University Affiliated Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from January 2011 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 130 males and 191 females, aging 59(11) years ( M(IQR)) (range: 55 to 66 years). The diagnostic value of the proportion of each pathological growth subtype on relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by using receiver operator characteristic curve. Patients were firstly divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of S/M components. And patients without S/M components were farther divided into two groups according to predominant growth pattern. There were three groups in total: with S/M components (group S/M +), without S/M components and lepidic growth pattern predominant (group S/M -LPA), without S/M components and papillary or acinar growth pattern predominant (group S/M -P/A). Kaplan-Meier method were used to draw the survival curves of the three groups, and Log-rank test were used to compare RFS and OS among the three groups. Cox proportional risk model was used to verify whether the presence of S/M components was a prognostic factor on RFS. Results:The proportion of S/M components had no diagnostic value for recurrence (solid: area under curve (AUC)=0.588, P=0.095; micropapillary: AUC=0.566, P=0.106) and death (AUC=0.589, P=0.104; AUC=0.607, P=0.056). The 5-year RFS rate of group S/M -LPA, S/M -P/A and S/M + were 92.4%, 82.3% and 77.3%, respectively (all P<0.05), while the 5-year OS rate were 97.4%, 94.5% and 83.2%, respectively (all P<0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that the 3 groups were independent predictors of recurrence (S/M -P/A vs. S/M - LPA: HR=2.691, 95% CI: 1.249 to 5.799, P=0.011; S/M +vs. S/M -LPA, HR=6.763, 95% CI: 3.050 to 14.996, P<0.01). Conclusions:The proportion of S/M components in stage ⅠA lung adenocarcinoma with complete resection cases did not affect survival outcome. New grouping method based on the presence or absence of S/M components were significantly associated with patient survival outcomes: S/M + patients had the worst prognosis and S/M -LPA patients had the best prognosis.

Objective:To put forward the assessment and qualification suggestions for the military flying personnel with laser corneal refractive surgery by analyzing the cases of active military flying personnel in China and reviewing the progress of refractive surgery abroad.Method:Twelve cases of laser corneal refractive surgery, including photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) of the flying personnel treated in Air Force Medical Center, PLA from January of 2012 to December of 2021, were analyzed retrospectively, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:Five cases recovered to 1.0 or better distance visual acuity by 7 d, another 3 by 1 month. Till to 2 months all 12 cases recovered to that level. The visual acuity was stable 2-3 months after operation, and the refraction tended to be stable 1 month after operation. All 12 flying personnel returned to flight duty successfully 2-6 months after operation.Conclusions:It is recommended to use surface laser corneal refractive surgery (PRK and LASEK) to correct myopia for military flying personnel and the optimum re-flight time is 2-3 months after operation in case of passing the regular aviation medical evaluation.
