AIM: To explore the accuracy and consistency of predicting postoperative vault in implantable collamer lens(ICL)surgery based on the NK and KS formulas of CASIA2 OCT.METHODS: Retrospective case study. The study included 85 patients(170 eyes)who underwent ICL implantation for the correction of moderate to high myopia at the Refractive Surgery Center of Lunan Eye Hospital from October 2022 to October 2023. Routine examinations including ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM), corneal endothelium assessment, optometry, intraocular pressure measurement, fundus examination, and corneal topography were performed. Patients who met the indications for ICL surgery were selected, and the recommended lens size was determined based on parameters such as corneal diameter and anterior chamber depth using standard methods. A CASIA2 OCT examination was used to obtain the corresponding lens size and predicted vault using the NK and KS formulas. The differences and consistency between the predicted vault by NK and KS formulas and the actual vault at 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo postoperatively were analyzed. Paired t-tests were used to analyze the differences between the predicted vault by NK and KS formulas and the actual vault at each postoperative time point. The consistency between the predicted vault by NK and KS formulas and the actual vault at each time point was assessed using Bland-Altman analysis. Multivariate linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between actual vault and various anterior segment parameters.RESULTS: The NK formula showed statistically significant differences between the predicted values and the actual vault at 1, 3, and 6 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was observed compared to the actual vault at 1 wk postoperatively(P=0.340). The KS formula demonstrated a statistically significant difference between the predicted values and the actual vault measured at 6 mo postoperatively(P<0.05). The lens vector height and lens model were influcing facotrs for the vault at 6 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05). Both the NK formula and KS formula had the highest consistency between their predicted vault and the actual vault at 6 mo postoperatively.CONCLUSION: The NK and KS formulas of CASIA2 OCT showed the highest consistency between the predicted postoperative vault and the actual vault at 6 mo postoperatively. Both formulas can serve as effective references for ICL model selection.

Yuejuwan is a classic formula widely used by doctors to relieve liver and depression， with precise clinical efficacy in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. The authors used bibliometric methods to collect and collate 495 ancient data related to Yuejuwan， and 105 valid data were screened out， involving 68 ancient Chinese medical books. After systematic verification of the origin of the formula of Yuejuwan， the main treatment symptoms， the principle of the formula， the composition of the drug， the dosage， the preparation method， the decoction method， and other information， the results showed that Yuejuwan originated from the Danxi Xinfa （《丹溪心法》） of the Yuan Dynasty by ZHU Zhenheng， and it is composed of five medicines， namely Atractylodis Rhizoma， Cyperi Rhizom， Chuanxiong Rhizoma， Massa Medicata Fermentata， and Gardeniae Fructus. In terms of drug base， Atractylodis Rhizoma， Cyperi Rhizom， Chuanxiong Rhizoma， and Gardeniae Fructus are in line with the records in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， and Massa Medicata Fermentata is used. The preparation method is as follows： Massa Medicata Fermentata and Gardeniae Fructus are fried， and Cyperi Rhizoma is roasted in vinegar. Chuanxiong Rhizoma is used in the raw form， and Atractylodis Rhizoma is prepared with rice swill. The formula can regulate Qi and relieve depression and broaden the middle and remove fullness. It is clinically used for the treatment of six types of depression syndromes， chest and diaphragm plumpness， abdominal distension and leg acid， acid swallowing and vomiting， eating and drinking disharmony， toothache， mouth and tongue sores， and other diseases. The most used dosage of the formula in the ancient records through the ages is converted into the modern dosage， namely 3.05 g Atractylodis Rhizoma， 3.05 g Cyperi Rhizoma， 3.05 g Chuanxiong Rhizoma， 3.05 g Massa Medicata Fermentata， and 3.05 g Gardeniae Fructus， and the daily dosage is 15.25 g.

ObjectiveBased on functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), we investigated the brain activity characteristics of gross motor tasks in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and motor dysfunctions (MDs) to provide a theoretical basis for further understanding the mechanism of MDs in children with ASD and designing targeted intervention programs from a central perspective. MethodsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 48 children with ASD accompanied by MDs were recruited into the ASD group and 40 children with typically developing (TD) into the TD group. The fNIRS device was used to collect the information of blood oxygen changes in the cortical motor-related brain regions during single-handed bag throwing and tiptoe walking, and the differences in brain activation and functional connectivity between the two groups of children were analyzed from the perspective of brain activation and functional connectivity. ResultsCompared to the TD group, in the object manipulative motor task (one-handed bag throwing), the ASD group showed significantly reduced activation in both left sensorimotor cortex (SMC) and right secondary visual cortex (V2) (P<0.05), whereas the right pre-motor and supplementary motor cortex (PMC&SMA) had significantly higher activation (P<0.01) and showed bilateral brain region activity; in terms of brain functional integration, there was a significant decrease in the strength of brain functional connectivity (P<0.05) and was mainly associated with dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and V2. In the body stability motor task (tiptoe walking), the ASD group had significantly higher activation in motor-related brain regions such as the DLPFC, SMC, and PMC&SMA (P<0.05) and showed bilateral brain region activity; in terms of brain functional integration, the ASD group had lower strength of brain functional connectivity (P<0.05) and was mainly associated with PMC&SMA and V2. ConclusionChildren with ASD exhibit abnormal brain functional activity characteristics specific to different gross motor tasks in object manipulative and body stability, reflecting insufficient or excessive compensatory activation of local brain regions and impaired cross-regions integration, which may be a potential reason for the poorer gross motor performance of children with ASD, and meanwhile provides data support for further unraveling the mechanisms underlying the occurrence of MDs in the context of ASD and designing targeted intervention programs from a central perspective.

AIM: To evaluate the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the iris and ciliary body of Wistar rats in the endotoxin-induced uveitis(EIU), and the effect of Xuebijing injection on its expression.METHODS:A total of 65 Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: Group A(normal saline, n=5), Group B(normal saline+endotoxin-injected, n=30), and Group C(Xuebijing+endotoxin-injected, n=30). The EIU model was induced in Wistar rats of the groups B and C by injecting LPS into the plantar surfaces of the hind feet, and normal saline(15 mL/kg)or Xuebijing(15 mL/kg)were intraperitoneally administered 30 min before LPS administration. The rats of the groups B and C were further divided into 6 subgroups after LPS injection, including 6, 12, 18, 24, 48, and 72 h subgroups, with 5 rats in each group. Furthermore, the intraocular inflammation of the rats was observed at each time above, the number of infiltrating cells in the aqueous humor was counted, and the pathological changes were observed in the iris and ciliary body of rats using hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining. TNF-α expression in iris and ciliary tissue at different postoperative time points was evaluated using immunohistochemistry.RESULTS: Clinical observations indicated no signs of uveitis in the group A, signs of uveitis were observed in the group B. Both iris symptoms and damage were significantly reduced in the group C compared to the group B(P<0.01). Cell counts in the aqueous humor revealed no inflammatory cells in the group A, while the number of aqueous humor cells in the group C was significantly reduced compared to Group B(P<0.01). HE staining revealed no cellular infiltration in the group A. In the group B, some cellular infiltration was observed in the eyes at 6 h post-LPS exposure. The number of infiltrating cells increased over time, peaked at 24 h, and gradually declined thereafter. In the group C, cell infiltration was not obvious at 6 h, few at 24 h, and nearly disappeared by 48 h. Immunohistochemical staining showed higher TNF-α expression in the ciliary body and iris in the group B than in the group A(P<0.01). Compared to the group C, TNF-α expression in the group B was significantly upregulated following LPS injection(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:TNF-α expression was elevated in EIU rats, and there was a positive correlation between its mean optical density ratio and inflammation degree. Moreover, Xuebijing injection could alleviate inflammation response through the reduction of TNF-α levels.
