Objective To identify possible associated genetic variants and characterise the clinical presentation of isolated ectopia lentis (IEL).Methods Forty-eight members with 5 generations of an IEL family were enrolled in this study.Peripheral blood samples of all members were collected, and clinical manifestations were observed through physical examination and routine ophthalmological examination.Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was per-formed for two patients to identify disease-causing variants.The target variants were verified by Sanger sequencing in family members and 200 normal controls.Then, candidate variants were verified using Sanger sequencing in family members and 200 healthy controls.SIFT, PolyPhen and MutationTester were used to predict the protein function.Results A total of 13 IEL patients in this family which inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern.The mean age at disease onset was 51.5 years.The main clinical phenotype of this ICE was characterised by ectopia lentis which anterior inclinated to the anterior chamber.As the anterior chamber became shallow, and the angle of the chamber became narrow, and eventually resulted in the secondary glaucoma.A heterozygous missense variant in the fibrillin gene-1 (FBN1) gene (c.3463G>A) was identified by WES, which was present in all patients but was absent in 200 healthy controls.SIFT, PolyPhen and MutationTester predicted that the variant affected protein function.Conclusion This IEL family is characterized by secondary glaucoma as the first symptom which is caused by ectopia lens with inclination.The c.3463G>A of FBN1 gene may be the pathogenic mutation leading to IEL in this family.

Objective:To analyze the association between healthy lifestyle and mortality among Henan Province 35-74 years old individuals.Methods:Data from the programme of screening and intervention subjects with high-risk cardiovascular disease 99 133 adults were analyzed in a provincial cohort study of 16 counties. Four healthy lifestyle behaviors were assessed based on a questionnaire survey. Information on mortality endpoints was retrieved from the national death surveillance system. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate the associations between healthy lifestyles, mortality risk and population attributable fraction (PAF).Results:Out of the adult participants in Henan, 50.6% adhered to a healthy lifestyle, and only 0.1% adhered to 4 healthy lifestyle behaviours. During a mean of 4.5 years, 2 685 all-cause death and 1 283 cardiovascular deaths were documented. The decreased risk of mortality among individuals with non-smoking, moderate drinking, adequate exercise and healthy diet were 0.85 (95% CI: 0.77-0.94), 0.75 (95% CI: 0.63-0.89), 0.73 (95% CI: 0.67-0.79) and 0.86 (95% CI: 0.77-0.96), while the adjusted PAF for all-cause deaths were 5.2% (95% CI: 2.5%-7.9%), 24.0% (95% CI: 10.7%-36.4%), 19.4% (95% CI: 13.8%-24.8%) and 12.3% (95% CI: 3.4%-20.9%), respectively. A combined healthy lifestyle can bring more health benefits. Adherence to 4 healthy lifestyle behaviours could avoid 49.1% of all-cause death. Conclusion:Adherence to a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of death, and participants with a healthy lifestyle had a lower mortality risk.

BACKGROUND:Tissue engineering is considered an ideal treatment for growth plate regeneration.However,most of the current research on regenerative tissue engineering is the traditional scaffold-based strategy.As the limitations of traditional scaffolds are gradually revealed,the research direction is gradually diversifying. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application of scaffold-based and scaffold-free strategies in the treatment of growth plate cartilage regeneration and their respective advantages and disadvantages. METHODS:The relevant articles were searched from PubMed,Wiley,and Elsevier.The search terms were"growth plate injury,regeneration,tissue engineering,scaffold,scaffold-free,biomimetic,cartilage"in English.The time was limited from 1990 to 2023.Finally,104 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The biomimetic strategy is to reduce the cell composition,biological signals and unique mechanical properties of each region to the greatest extent by simulating the unique organizational structure of the growth plate,so as to build a biomimetic microenvironment that can promote tissue regeneration.Therefore,the design of a biomimetic scaffold is to simulate the original growth plate as far as possible in terms of composition,structure and mechanical properties.Although some results have been achieved,there is still the problem of the unstable regeneration effect.The scaffold-free strategy believes that the limitations of scaffolds will have adverse effects on regenerative therapy.Therefore,the design of scaffold-free constructs relies as much as possible on the ability of cells to generate and maintain extracellular matrix without interfering with cell-cell signals or introducing exogenous substances.However,there are some problems,such as poor stability,low mechanical strength and greater difficulty in operation.Biomimetic strategy and scaffold-free strategy have different emphases,advantages and disadvantages,but they both have positive effects on growth plate cartilage regeneration.Therefore,subsequent studies,whether adopting a biomimetic strategy or a scaffold-free strategy,will focus on the continuous optimization of existing technologies in order to achieve effective growth plate cartilage regeneration therapy.
