Dry eye disease is a chronic ocular surface disorder of multifactorial origin, characterized by a loss of tear film homeostasis and associated with a range of ocular discomfort symptoms. Growing evidence underscores a significant bidirectional relationship between dry eye and depression: individuals with dry eye disease exhibit a higher prevalence of depressive disorders, and conversely, those diagnosed with depression demonstrate an increased susceptibility to developing dry eye. This interplay is mediated through several pathophysiological pathways, such as chronic inflammation, cerebral functional alterations, gut microbiome dysregulation, and sleep disturbances, which may collectively sustain a vicious cycle. The use of antidepressant therapy introduces further complexity, exerting heterogeneous effects on dry eye—some agents may offer symptomatic relief, whereas others can aggravate ocular surface impairment. The mechanisms responsible for these differential outcomes remain incompletely elucidated and merit further investigation. This review systematically consolidates epidemiological data on the dry eye-depression link, examines potential shared pathological mechanisms, and evaluates current therapeutic options. We propose an integrated management approach that combines conventional dry eye treatments, such as traditional Chinese medicine, electroacupuncture, physical activity and antidepressants—a multimodal strategy that may yield synergistic benefits in alleviating both ocular and affective symptoms, thereby improving overall quality of life. Moving forward, research should focus on deciphering the underlying mechanistic pathways and facilitating the translation of these insights into clinical practice to inform targeted, combined treatment regimens for patients with dry eye and depression.

Objective:To explore baseline clinical and imaging characteristics of children with neonatal arterial ischaemic stroke based on their long-term motor function prognoses.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electroencephalogram (EEG) findings, were collected from 31 neonates diagnosed with ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neonataology, Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province between January 2015 and December 2019. Unified follow-up was conducted between May and July 2024. Long-term motor function outcomes were assessed using the modified Rankin scale(mRS) and categorized into two groups: the good motor function group (mRS score 0-1) and the motor impairment group (mRS score≥2).Baseline clinical and imaging data were summarized for all children, and differences between the two groups were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher′s exact test. Results:A total of 31 neonates (21 males, 10 females) with an admission age of 1-19 days, all diagnosed within 28 days of birth, were included. At follow-up, 4-8 years after disease onset, 26 neonates (84%) showed good motor function, while 5 (16%) had motor impairments. Compared to the good motor function group, the motor impairment group had higher proportions of females (4/5 vs. 23% (6/26)), main middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction (4/5 vs. 19% (5/26)), basal ganglia involvement (4/5 vs. 27% (7/26)), corticospinal tract involvement (posterior limb of internal capsule (PLIC) 5/5 vs. 38% (10/26) and cerebral peduncles 5/5 vs. 31% (8/26)) shown by MRI images, and meconium-stained amniotic fluid (4/5 vs. 15% (4/26))(all P<0.05).No significant differences were observed in gestational age, birth weight, abnormalities in muscle tone or primitive reflexes at admission or discharge, or abnormal EEG findings (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Neonatal arterial ischemic stroke commonly manifests as seizures, which are generally controllable, with a relatively stable clinical course and a low incidence of long-term motor impairment. Children with long-term motor impairments are more likely to have main MCA infarction, basal ganglia and corticospinal tract involvement (PLIC and cerebral peduncles), as well as meconium-stained amniotic fluid. This condition is also more commonly observed in females.

To develop a rapid differential detection method for porcine epidemic diarrhea virus(PEDV)and transmissible gastroenteritis virus(PEDV),M gene sequences of PEDV and TGEV were compared,the inner and outer primer pairs and probes were designed according to the highly conserved region.PEDV-Probe was labeled with FAM at5'end and BHQ1 at 3'end.TGEV-Probe was labeled with CY5.5 at the 5'end and BHQ2 at the 3'end.After optimizing the reaction condi-tions and system,a dual fluorescent RT-LAMP assay for PEDV and TGEV rapid identification was established.The amplification could be completed within 60 min in a 63 ℃ water bath and then stopped at 85 ℃ for 10 min.Then the tubes were placed in a multicolor imaging system,and the re-sults could be observed under 520 nm and 690 nm dual channels.There was no cross-reaction when other common swine viral pathogens were detected by this method.The sensitivity of the assay was evaluated with a 10-fold diluted recombinant plasmid as templates.The lowest detection limit was 102 copies/μL recombinant plasmid,which was 10 times more sensitive than the conventional RT-PCR method.Seventy-two PEDV-positive samples,49 TGEV-positive samples,and 40 PEDV and TGEV co-infected samples were detected from 175 anal swab samples of diarrheic piglets by the established method,which were all higher than the detection rates of the conventional RT-PCR method.The dual fluorescent RT-LAMP method established in this study can be used to amplify the target gene in an ordinary water bath without gel electrophoresis,which provides technical sup-port for rapid and convenient differential diagnosis of PED and TGE and simultaneous detection of PEDV and TGEV co-infection.
