AIM: To analyze the value of blue-on-yellow perimetry(B/Y)combined with macular ganglion cells inner plexiform layer(GCIPL)detection in the early diagnosis of open angle glaucoma.METHODS: A prospective case-control study was conducted to collect 100 patients(174 eyes)from May 2023 to May 2024 in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University as the case group, and 20 healthy volunteers(40 eyes)as the control group. The case group was divided into high intraocular pressure group, suspected glaucoma group, and early glaucoma group based on the examination results. All study subjects underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examination, white-on-white perimetry(W/W)and B/Y examination, and swept source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)was used to scan the optic disc and macula to obtain relevant parameters. The value of B/Y combined with macular GCIPL in the diagnosis of open angle glaucoma was analyzed.RESULTS: In the case group, 30 cases(52 eyes)were diagnosed with early primary open angle glaucoma, 46 cases(82 eyes)were suspected of open angle glaucoma, and 24 cases(40 eyes)were diagnosed with high intraocular pressure. The W/W mean defect(MD)and B/Y-MD values in the early glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group. The W/W pattern standard deviation(PSD)and B/Y-PSD values were higher than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The W/W-MD and B/Y-MD values in the suspected glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group and the high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). The B/Y-MD values in the high intraocular pressure group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05). The parameters of GCIPL in the macular area of the early glaucoma group were lower than those of the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The minimum GCIPL in the macular area of the suspected glaucoma group, as well as the upper and lower temporal areas, were lower than those of the control group and the high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). The average, upper, lower, temporal, 5:00, 6:00, and 12:00 positions of the retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL)parameters around the optic disc in the early glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The average and upper RNFL parameters in the suspected glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group and high intraocular pressure group. The rim area of the optic nerve head(ONH)parameters in the early glaucoma group was smaller than that in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group, while the horizontal and vertical cup-to-disc ratio was higher than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group; the rim area of the suspected glaucoma group was smaller than that of the control group and high intraocular pressure group, and the horizontal and vertical cup-to-disc ratio were higher than those of the control group and high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn, and the results showed that visual field parameters, macular GCIPL parameters, and RNFL parameters had certain diagnosibility for early open angle glaucoma and suspected glaucoma. Decision curve was drawn, and the results showed that when the threshold was between 0 and 1.0, the net return rate of diagnosing early open angle glaucoma with the combination of B/Y and macular GCIPL parameters was higher than the individual diagnostic efficacy of each indicator.CONCLUSION: The combination of B/Y and macular GCIPL detection can be an important means for the early diagnosis of glaucoma.

AIM: To analyze the changes of retinal structure and function before and after panretinal photocoagulation(PRP)in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR).METHODS: Prospective study. Totally 98 cases(98 eyes)of PDR patients who underwent PRP in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2022 to May 2023 were included. Optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)was used to detect central retinal thickness(CRT), central macular thickness(CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness(SFCT), foveal avascular zone(FAZ), deep vascular complex(DVC)blood flow density, superficial vascular complex(SVC)blood flow density before and at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after PRP. During the follow-up, 1 eye underwent vitrectomy, 2 eyes were lost to follow-up, and finally 95 eyes completed 1 a follow-up, with a loss rate of 3%. According to the visual prognosis at 1 a after treatment, the patients were divided into two groups: 73 eyes in good prognosis group and 22 eyes in poor prognosis group(including 9 eyes of visual disability and 13 eyes of visual regression). The changes in retinal structure and function before and after PRP treatment were compared between the two groups of patients, and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and decision curve were used to analyze the predictive value of retinal structure and function for PDR treatment.RESULTS: There were statistical significant differences in PDR staging, CRT, CMT, SFCT, DVC blood flow density, and SVC blood flow density between the two groups of patients before treatment(all P<0.05). At 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment, the FAZ area of both groups decreased compared to before treatment, while the blood flow density of DVC and SVC increased compared to before treatment(both P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the blood flow density of FAZ, DVC, and SVC between the two groups at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT of the two groups at 1 wk after treatment were higher than those before treatment(all P<0.05), but there were no significant differences between the two groups(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT at 1 and 3 mo after treatment were lower than those at 1 wk after treatment and before treatment in both groups. The CRT, CMT and SFCT in the poor prognosis group at 3 mo after treatment were higher than those at 1 mo after treatment, and were higher than those in the good prognosis group(all P<0.05). ROC analysis showed that, at 3 mo after laser treatment in PDR patients, the area under the curve of the CRT, CMT, and SFCT alone or in combination after treatment for 1 a was 0.788, 0.781, 0.783, and 0.902, respectively, and the combined prediction value was better(P<0.05). Decision curve analysis showed that the combined detection of CRT, CMT, and SFCT in PDR patients at 3 mo after treatment can improve the predictive value of visual prognosis.CONCLUSION: The optimal time for retinal structure and function recovery in PDR patients after PRP treatment is between 1 wk and 1 mo. OCTA measurement of CRT, CMT, and SFCT at 3 mo after treatment can predict the visual prognosis during the 1 a treatment period.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of the integrated schistosomiasis control programme in Sichuan Province during the stage moving from transmission interruption to elimination (2015—2023), so as to provide insights into formulation of the schistosomiasis control measures during the post-elimination stage. Methods Schistosomiasis control data were retrospectively collected from departments of health, agriculture and rural affairs, forestry and grassland, water resources, and natural resources in Sichuan Province from 2015 to 2023, and a database was created to document examinations and treatments of human and livestock schistosomiasis, and snail survey and control, conversion of paddy fields to dry fields, ditch hardening, rivers and lakes management and building of forests for snail control and schistosomiasis prevention. The completion of schistosomiasis control measures was investigated, and the effectiveness was evaluated. Results A total of 20 545 155 person-times received human schistosomiasis examinations in Sichuan Province during the period from 2015 to 2023, and 232 157 person-times were seropositive, with a reduction in the seroprevalence from 2.10% (44 299/2 107 003) in 2015 to 1.12% (9 361/837 896) in 2023 (χ² = 7.68, P < 0.001). The seroprevalence of human schistosomiasis appeared a tendency towards a decline in Sichuan Province over years from 2015 to 2023 (b = −8.375, t = −10.052, P < 0.001); however, no egg positive individuals were identified during the period from 2018 to 2023, with the prevalence of human Schistosoma japonicum infections maintained at 0. Expanded chemotherapy was administered to 2 754 515 person-times, and medical assistance of advanced schistosomiasis was given to 6 436 persontimes, with the treatment coverage increasing from 46.80% (827/1 767) in 2015 to 64.87% (868/1 338) in 2023. Parasitological tests for livestock schistosomiasis were performed in 35 113 herd-times, and expanded chemotherapy was administered to 513 043 herd-times, while the number of fenced livestock decreased from 121 631 in 2015 to 103 489 in 2023, with a reduction of 14.92%. Snail survey covered 433 621.80 hm² in Sichuan Province from 2015 to 2023, with 204 602.81 hm² treated by chemical control and 4 637.74 hm² by environmental modifications. The area of snail habitats decreased from the peak of 5 029.80 hm² in 2016 to 3 709.72 hm² in 2023, and the actual area of snail habitats decreased from the peak of 8 585.48 hm² in 2016 to 473.09 hm² in 2023. The mean density of living snails remained low across the study period except in 2017 (0.62 snails/0.1 m²). Schistosomiasis control efforts by departments of agriculture and rural affairs in Sichuan Province included conversion of paddy fields to dry fields covering 153 346.93 hm², hardening of 6 110.31 km ditches, building of 70 356 biogas digesters, replacement of cattle with 227 161 sets of machines, and captive breeding of 21 161 070 livestock from 2015 to 2023, and the control efforts by departments of water resources included rivers and lakes management measuring 5 676.92 km and renovation of 2 331 irrigation areas, while the control efforts by departments of forestry and grassland included building of forests for snail control and schistosomiasis prevention covering 23 913.33 hm², renovation of snail control forests covering 8 720 hm² and newly building of shelterbelts covering 764 686.67 hm². All 63 endemic counties (cities and districts) had achieved the criterion for schistosomiasis elimination criteria in Sichuan Province by the end of 2023. Conclusion Following the integrated control efforts from 2015 to 2023, remarkable achievements have been obtained in the schistosomiasis control programme in Sichuan Province, with all endemic counties successfully attaining the schistosomiasis elimination target at the county level.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of paragonimiasis cases in Sichuan Province, and to provide an evidence for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of paragonimiasis in medical institutions. MethodsData were collected from case reports submitted by cities (prefectures) from 2020 to 2023, including demographic information, epidemiological features, clinical symptoms, laboratory testing indicators, and awareness of paragonimiasis. Epidemiological descriptions and statistical analyses were performed on these variables. ResultsA total of 125 paragonimiasis cases were reported in Sichuan Province from 2020 to 2023, including 53 thoracic/pulmonary cases and 72 extrapulmonary cases. Geographically, cases were distributed in Dazhou City (63 cases, 50.40%), Yibin City (61 cases, 48.80%), and Deyang City(1 case, 0.80%). The male-to-female ratio was 1.66∶1, with 77.60% (97 cases) aged 0‒18 years. Students accounted for the majority of cases (67 cases, 53.60%). Among the patients, 67 cases (53.60%) had a history of consuming raw or undercooked crabs, and 94 cases (75.20%) reported drinking untreated water. The predominant symptoms included migratory subcutaneous nodules (26.40%), cough (24.80%), and abdominal pain/diarrhea (21.60%). Younger patients exhibited a higher proportion of migratory subcutaneous nodules, while older patients more frequently presented with cough and chest pain (χ²=4.060, P=0.044; χ²=9.235, P=0.002). Elevated eosinophil percentages and absolute counts were observed in 99.20% (124 cases) and 93.60% (117 cases) of patients, respectively. Peripheral white blood cell counts were higher in thoracic/pulmonary cases than that in extrapulmonary cases (Z=2.398, P=0.016), but no statistically significant differences were found in eosinophil absolute counts or percentages between the two types (Z=0.609, P=0.542; Z=0.732, P=0.464). In terms of treatment courses, 28 cases had 1 course, 31 cases had 2 courses, 43 cases had 3 courses, 11 cases had 4 courses, and 10 cases had 5 courses or more. Extrapulmonary cases required significantly longer treatment durations than thoracic/pulmonary cases (t=2.299, P=0.023). Only 12.80% (16 cases) of patients were aware of paragonimiasis. ConclusionParagonimiasis in Sichuan Province occurred sporadically, and the patients were mainly children and adolescents. The clinical manifestations of the patients lacked specificity, making it easy to lead to misdiagnosis. During the diagnosis, epidemiological history, migratory subcutaneous nodules and other main symptoms should be fully considered. An increase of the absolute count and proportion of eosinophils served as significant warning indicators for paragonimiasis infection.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effect of artemisinin derivative dihydroartemisinin(DHA)on anti-tumor immune function of CD8+T cells induced by non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)cells.Methods NSCLC A549 cells were divided into DMSO control group and DHA treatment group.A549 cells were treated with DMSO and DHA at different concentrations(25,50 and 100 μmol/L),and the optimal concentration of DHA was selected to treat A549 cells for 0,24,48 and 72 h according to half maximal inhibitory concentrate(IC50).CCK-8 method and colony formation test were used to detect the effect of DHA on the proliferation and colony formation ability of A549 cells.Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of healthy individuals were isolated by density gradient centrifugation.After monocytes were removed by adhesion method,A549 cells pretreated with mitomycin C were co-cultured with PBMCs at 10:1 ratio.After 2 weeks,flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD8+T cells and the expression levels of perforin and granzyme B.Results Compared with the control group,the proliferation inhibition rates of A549 cells increased after treatment with 25,50 and 100 μmol/L DHA for 24 h(P<0.01).The IC50 of DHA on A549 cells was46.26 μmol/L.According to IC50 concentration analysis,the inhibi-tion rates of A549 cells treated with 50 μmol/L DHA for 0,24,48 and 72h were 1.53%,53.50%,63.84%and 69.91%,and the cells inhibition rates of A548 cells increased compared with the previous observation time point,namely 0,24 and 48 h(P<0.01).The colony formation assay showed that the colony formation number of A549 cells in DHA treated group decreased compared with the control group(P<0.01).Flow cytometry results showed that compared with the control group,the proportion of CD8+T cells induced by A549 cells in the co-culture system and the proportion of CD8+T cells expressing perforin and granzyme B were higher in DHA pretreatment group(P<0.01).Conclusion DHA inhibits the growth of NSCLC cells and promotes anti-tumor immune response of CD8+T cells induced by NSCLC cells.

Objective To evaluate the change of energy metabolism during cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.Methods Adult CD-1 male mice were intraperitoneally injected with a single dose of cisplatin (20 mg/kg), and renal function and renal tissue pathology were tested;gene expression was analyzed and signaling pathways were en-riched in cisplatin-treated renal tubular epithelial cells using transcriptome; the contents of renal glycolysis and a-mino acid metabolites were analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) .Re-sults Serum urea nitrogen and blood creatinine significantly increased in cisplatin-treated mice.Pathological his-tology observed swelling and shedding of renal tubular epithelial cells.Transcriptome analysis revealed that 2632 genes were upregulated and 2799 genes were downregulated in cisplatin-treated HK-2 cells.GO and KEGG analy-sis showed that differential genes were enriched in energy metabolism.The GSEA analysis results showed that cispl-atin caused an upregulation of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and a downregulation of the glycolysis pathway in renal tubular epithelial cells, further KEGG analysis demonstrated that cisplatin caused changes in the expression of amino acid genes in renal cells.Metabolomics showed that the contents of glycolytic intermediates and several a-mino acids were altered in the kidney of cisplatin-treated mice.Conclusion Cisplatin-induced acute renal injury is accompanied by modification in renal tubular cell glycolysis and amino acid metabolism.

With the increasing proportion of human papilloma virus(HPV)infection in the pathogenic factors of oro-pharyngeal cancer,a series of changes have occurred in the surgical treatment.While the treatment mode has been im-proved,there are still many problems,including the inconsistency between diagnosis and treatment modes,the lack of popularization of reconstruction technology,the imperfect post-treatment rehabilitation system,and the lack of effective preventive measures.Especially in terms of treatment mode for early oropharyngeal cancer,there is no unified conclu-sion whether it is surgery alone or radiotherapy alone,and whether robotic minimally invasive surgery has better func-tional protection than radiotherapy.For advanced oropharyngeal cancer,there is greater controversy over the treatment mode.It is still unclear whether to adopt a non-surgical treatment mode of synchronous chemoradiotherapy or induction chemotherapy combined with synchronous chemoradiotherapy,or a treatment mode of surgery combined with postopera-tive chemoradiotherapy.In order to standardize the surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer in China and clarify the indications for surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,this expert consensus,based on the characteristics and treat-ment status of oropharyngeal cancer in China and combined with the international latest theories and practices,forms consensus opinions in multiple aspects of preoperative evaluation,surgical indication determination,primary tumor re-section,neck lymph node dissection,postoperative defect repair,postoperative complication management prognosis and follow-up of oropharyngeal cancer patients.The key points include:① Before the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,the expression of P16 protein should be detected to clarify HPV status;② Perform enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial region before surgery to evaluate the invasion of oropharyngeal cancer and guide precise surgical resec-tion of oropharyngeal cancer.Evaluating mouth opening and airway status is crucial for surgical approach decisions and postoperative risk prediction;③ For oropharyngeal cancer patients who have to undergo major surgery and cannot eat for one to two months,it is recommended to undergo percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before surgery to effectively improve their nutritional intake during treatment;④ Early-stage oropharyngeal cancer patients may opt for either sur-gery alone or radiation therapy alone.For intermediate and advanced stages,HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer general-ly prioritizes radiation therapy,with concurrent chemotherapy considered based on tumor staging.Surgical treatment is recommended as the first choice for HPV unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(including primary and re-current)and recurrent HPV related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy;⑤ For primary exogenous T1-2 oropharyngeal cancer,direct surgery through the oral approach or da Vinci robotic sur-gery is preferred.For T3-4 patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer,it is recommended to use temporary mandibu-lectomy approach and lateral pharyngotomy approach for surgery as appropriate;⑥ For cT1-2N0 oropharyngeal cancer patients with tumor invasion depth＞3 mm and cT3-4N0 HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,selective neck dissection of levels ⅠB to Ⅳ is recommended.For cN+HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,therapeutic neck dissection in regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ is advised;⑦ If PET-CT scan at 12 or more weeks after completion of radiation shows intense FDG uptake in any node,or imaging suggests continuous enlargement of lymph nodes,the patient should undergo neck dissection;⑧ For patients with suspected extracapsular invasion preoperatively,lymph node dissection should include removal of surrounding muscle and adipose connective tissue;⑨ The reconstruction of oropharyngeal cancer defects should follow the principle of reconstruction steps,with priority given to adjacent flaps,followed by distal pedicled flaps,and finally free flaps.The anterolateral thigh flap with abundant tissue can be used as the preferred flap for large-scale postoperative defects.

Objective To explore the characteristics of response inhibition of military university students during multitasking operation. Methods Repeated measures of ANOVA as well as distribution test were employed to explore how the performance of 127 military university students in Go/No-Go test was affected by simulated driving task. Results The test results of 127 participants showed that there was a interaction between the interference task and the Go trial proportion on the hit rate and false alarm rate,that is,no significant difference was observed between the 60％ and 40％ of trial proportion without interference task (both P>0.05),but the hit rate and false alarm rate in the 60％ trial proportion condition were significantly higher than those in the 40％ trial proportion condition under interference task (both P<0.01).In addition,significant main effects of interference task were observed on hit rate,false alarm rate,and discrimination index d' (all P<0.01),that is,the interference task reduced the hit rate and discrimination,but increased the false alarm rate.Moreover,individual differences existed in the discrimination index d' changes,and the participants were divided into easily disturbed group (n=23,18.11％),undisturbed group (n=20,15.75％),and intermediate group (n=84,66.14％) by adding or subtracting 1 standard deviation from the mean of the difference. Conclusion The interference tasks increase the psychological load of military university students during multitasking operation,and impair the response inhibition;and individual differences exist in response inhibition.

Objective:To explore the value of adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in evaluating the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on coronary microvascular angina (CMVA). Methods:Sixty eight patients diagnosed with CMVA in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and a nicorandil group, with 34 patients in each group, using a random number table method. The control group received isosorbide mononitrate in addition to conventional treatment, while the nicorandil group received nicorandil in addition to conventional treatment. Both groups were treated continuously for 3 months. All patients underwent adenosine loading 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT before and after treatment to measure the degree of myocardial perfusion defect (SDS), myocardial perfusion defect area (SRS), and degree of improvement of myocardial perfusion defect (SIS). Clinical symptoms, electrocardiogram changes, myocardial enzyme indicators [cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)], hemodynamic parameters [systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), peripheral resistance (TPR), left ventricular work index (LVWI), and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO 2)] were evaluated. Results:After treatment, the SDS and SRS of the nicorandil group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01), and the SIS was significantly higher than that of the control group (all P<0.01); The improvement of abnormal myocardial perfusion imaging was significantly better than that of the control group (χ 2=4.976, P<0.05); the frequency, duration, and severity of angina attacks, Canadian Heart Association (CCS) grading, and incidence of ischemic changes on electrocardiogram were all lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01); The levels of serum cTnI, CK-MB, and LDH were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01); SBP, DBP, HR, LVWI, and MVO 2 were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01), while SV and CO were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT can effectively evaluate the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on CMVA, and nicorandil can improve myocardial perfusion defects and clinical manifestations in CMVA patients.

Objective To explore the professionalization model of nursing management team in an international medical center in a provincial public tertiary hospital.Methods Through literature research and Delphi method,a three-person nursing management team was established respectively in three nursing units:outpatient,first-ward,and second-ward of the center,and then trained professionally to define management boundaries and responsibilities.The training effect was verified by applying the professionalization management in the international medical center.The three nursing teams(nine nurses totally)were compared in terms of leadership,patient satisfaction,and nursing discipline construction before and after the training.Results Following the training,the three teams all exhibited a significant improvement in leadership as well as its dimensions(P＜0.05),and pa-tient satisfaction(P＜0.05).Additionally,care quality,scientific research capacity,and innovation ability were all elevated across the three groups.Conclusion The establishment of a nursing management team and performance of professional training can effectively promote the concept of professionalization management,improve the leadership of nurses,cultivate talent eche-lons,drive the overall development of disciplines and teams,and expand the connotation of nursing culture.For all these bene-fits,this model is suitable for promotion and application among clinical departments.
