Alzheimer's disease(AD), a neurodegenerative disorder associated with aging, is the most prevalent form of dementia.As the aging population continues to expand, AD presents significant health and caregiving challenges for families and society, making it a pressing international public health concern.In recent years, numerous countries have implemented dementia prevention and treatment strategies that emphasize community-based comprehensive approaches.Currently, the community-based AD prevention and treatment model in China is still in the exploratory phase, with community efforts lacking organization.In alignment with China's action plan for advancing dementia prevention and treatment, and to achieve the strategic objective of "healthy aging, " this consensus is based on the principle of three-level prevention and is tailored to the characteristics of AD disease progression.It aims to develop a comprehensive prevention and treatment strategy for AD that is suitable for communities in China, providing technical guidance and support to establish a scientific basis for formulating community AD prevention and treatment models.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Guhong Injection for the treatment of patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction(CMD)of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome.Methods Sixty cases of patients with CMD of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome who were admitted to Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 2021 to August 2022 were randomly divided into the control group and the trial group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional western medicine,and the trial group was treated with Guhong Injection on the basis of treatment for the control group.The course of treatment for the two groups covered 10 days.The changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,and levels of lipid indicators,serum inflammatory factors and endothelial factors in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)During the trial,three cases in the control group and two cases in the trial group fell off and a total of 55 cases were finally included in the statistical analysis of efficacy,including 27 cases in the control group and 28 cases in the trial group.(2)After 10 days of treatment,the total effective rate of the trial group was 89.29%(25/28),and that of the control group was 40.74%(11/27),and the intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the therapeutic efficacy of the trial group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.01).(3)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of patients in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(4)After treatment,the levels of lipid indicators triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)in the two groups of patients were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)was increased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the decrease of TG,TC,and LDL-C levels as well as the increase of HDL-C level in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(5)After treatment,the serum levels of inflammatory factors high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),interleukin 6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)in the two groups of patients were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(6)After treatment,the serum level of endothelial factor nitric oxide(NO)in the two groups of patients was increased(P<0.05)and the serum endothelin 1(ET-1)level was decreased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase of serum NO level,as well as the decrease of serum ET-1 level in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Based on the conventional treatment in western medicine,the application of Guhong Injection in the treatment of patients with CMD of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome exerts remarkable efficacy,which can effectively alleviate the symptoms,regulate the levels of blood lipids,reduce the inflammatory response,and improve the endothelial function.

In February 2025, a local cluster outbreak caused by the D8 genotype Measles virus (MV) was first discovered in Henan Province. Epidemiological investigations and laboratory testing were conducted, including the collection of serum and throat swabs for MV IgM antibody and nucleic acid detection, virus isolation and genetic homology analysis. Measures such as close contact tracing, vaccination rate assessment and supplementary immunization activities were implemented, successfully preventing broader community transmission. A total of three cases were reported during the outbreak, including one imported-related adolescent and two secondary local adult cases. All cases presented with typical symptoms such as fever and rash. Both adult cases were complicated by pneumonia, with one case developing into severe pneumonia. MV genotyping showed that the two secondary cases were both the D8 genotype, with the viral sequences being completely homologous to the Kazakhstan strain. Among the close contacts, 98.2% were adults, and 142 individuals received emergency vaccination.

Objective:To observe and preliminarily analyze the risk factors related to silicone oil dependence after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in open globe injuries (OGI) .Methods:A retrospective clinical study. This study included 211 patients with OGI who received PPV treatment from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2016 in Eye Injury Vitrectomy Study database. Silicone oil dependence was defined as the intraocular pressure <10 mm Hg (1 mm Hg= 0.133 kPa) in silicone oil tamponade eye 6 months after PPV. The patient's age, intraocular pressure, type of injury, length of eyeball wound, as well as the presence of ciliary body injury, choroidal injury, and retinal resection and/or defect area were recorded in detail. Logistic multifactorial regression analyzed the correlation between age, eye wound length and ciliary body iinjury, choroidal injury and retinal resection and/or defect severity and silicone oil dependence.Results:211 OGI eyes underwent vitrectomy were included, the mean age of the study population was 32.93 years (range 1-73 years), and the median follow-up period was 20.06 months (range 5.85-90.58 months). Among the 211 eyes, 121 (57.3%, 121/211), 52 (24.6%, 52/211), 23 (10.9%, 23/211) and 15 (7.1%, 15/211) were rupture, perforation, intraocular foreign bodies and penetrating injury, respectively. 98 eyes (46.4%, 98/211) of silicone oil dependence in total, among them, 64 (65.3%, 64/98), 19 (19.4%, 19/98), 9 (9.2%, 9/98) and 6 (6.1%, 6/98) eyes were rupture, perforation, intraocular foreign body and penetrating injury, respectively. Correlation analysis revealed that silicone oil dependence was significantly associated with ciliary body injury [odds ratio ( OR) = 2.150, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.052-4.393], choroidal injury ( OR=3.233, 95% CI 1.454-7.191), and retinal injury ( OR=2.731, 95% CI 1.393-5.353). No correlation was found with age ( OR= 0.981, 95% CI 0.960-1.002) or ocular wound length ( OR=1.716, 95% CI 0.987-2.984) ( P> 0.05). Conclusion:Silicone oil dependency following PPV in OGIs are associated with ciliary body, choroidal, and retinal injuries, but no association with age or length of the ocular wound.

The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system, belonging to the type II CRISPR/Cas system, is an effective gene-editing tool widely used in different organisms, but the size of Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9) is quite large (4.3 kb), which is not convenient for vector delivery. In this study, we used a codon-optimized Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 (SaCas9) system to edit the tyrosinase (tyr), oculocutaneous albinism II (oca2), and paired box 6.1 (pax6.1) genes in the fish model medaka(Oryzias latipes), in which the size of SaCas9 (3.3 kb) is much smaller and the necessary protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) sequence is 5'-NNGRRT-3'. We also used a transfer RNA (tRNA)‍-single-guide RNA (sgRNA) system to express the functional sgRNA by transcription eitherin vivo or in vitro, and the combination of SaCas9 and tRNA-sgRNA was used to edit the tyr gene in the medaka genome. The SaCas9/sgRNA and SaCas9/tRNA-sgRNA systems were shown to edit the medaka genome effectively, while the PAM sequence is an essential part for the efficiency of editing. Besides, tRNA can improve the flexibility of the system by enabling the sgRNA to be controlled by a common promoter such as cytomegalovirus. Moreover, the all-in-one cassette cytomegalovirus (CMV)‍-SaCas9-tRNA-sgRNA-tRNA is functional in medaka gene editing. Taken together, the codon-optimized SaCas9 system provides an alternative and smaller tool to edit the medaka genome and potentially other fish genomes.

The finite element method(FEM)is a widely employed mathematical technique in mechanical research that divides an object into discrete and interacting finite elements. Medically, finite element analysis(FEA)enables the simulation of biomechanical experiments that are challenging to conduct. Orbital surgery poses significant challenges to ophthalmologists due to its inherent difficulty and steep learning curve. FEM enables the simulation and analysis of the mechanical properties of orbital tissue, offering a novel approach for diagnosing and treating orbital-related diseases. With technological advancements, FEM has significantly matured in the diagnosis and treatment of orbital diseases, becoming a popular area of research in orbital biomechanics. This paper reviewed the latest advancements in orbital FEM, encompassing the development of orbital FEA models, simulation of orbital structure, and its application in orbital-related diseases. Additionally, the limitations of FEM and future research directions are also discussed. As a digital tool for auxiliary diagnosis and treatment, orbital FEA will progressively unlock its potential for diagnosing and treating orbital diseases alongside technological advancements.

Congenital entropion, an abnormal condition in which the eyelids roll inward, with the eyelashes losing their normal angulation and tilting toward the eye, especially in the lower eyelids and inner canthus, often occurs in infants and young children. Congenital entropion may lead to corneal epithelial abrasion, inflammation and ulcer, which may affect the function of the eye if not treated in time. Early surgical intervention is helpful to the health of children's eyes. The purpose of surgery is to change the structure of eyelid and weaken the force of entropion, thus improving the symptoms and corneal astigmatism. At present, there are many surgical treatments for congenital entropion. In this paper, the advantages, disadvantages and indications of these treatments are analyzed and summarized, providing a reference for clinical practice.
