AIM: To construct an assessment model for the risk of myopia in preschool children and evaluate its clinical value.METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of preschool children who established refractive profiles in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2024. The eye with lower refractive error was selected. The right eye was chosen in cases where the refractive error of both eyes was identical. The data were divided into a training set(n=385)and a validation set(n=165)in a 7∶3 ratio. The data of the children were collected in detail, and the children's spherical equivalent(SE)was used as the dependent variable. The multiple linear regression model was used to screen the indicators that affected the biological indicators related to myopia in preschool children.Subsequently, the children in the training set were divided into a myopia group and a normal vision group based on whether myopia occurred(SE≤-0.50 D can be diagnosed as myopia according to refractive power assessment). Subsequently, the influencing factors selected by the multiple linear regression model were included as predictive variables, and a risk assessment equation was constructed using Logistic regression. The discrimination, calibration and clinical application value of the assessment model were verified through the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test and decision curve.RESULTS: This study included 550 preschool children(550 eyes). The training set comprised 385 children(385 eyes; 190 boys and 195 girls), and the validation set comprised 165 children(165 eyes; 82 boys and 83 girls). Among the children in the training set, the myopia group included 34 children(34 eyes; 16 boys and 18 girls), and the non-myopic group included 351 children(351 eyes; 174 boys and 177 girls). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the ratio of axial length(AL)to corneal curvature radius(CR), subfoveal choroidal thickness(SFCT), anterior chamber depth(ACD), age, parental myopia history, and outdoor activity time were risk factors for myopia in preschool children(all P<0.05). Based on the above risk factors, a Logistic regression risk assessment model was constructed, and the evaluation model Logit(P)was obtained as 0.894×AL/CR-1.312×SFCT+1.182×ACD+2.063×age+0.763×parental myopia history-5.868. The effectiveness of the myopia risk assessment model for preschool children based on the training set was evaluated. The results showed that the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.939(95%CI: 0.912-0.965), the H-L test was χ2=1.487, P=0.993, and the decision curve indicated that within the threshold range of 0.03-0.81 and 0.89-0.97, the net return rate was greater than 0. This suggested that the model had good discrimination, calibration, and clinical application value in evaluating the myopia risk and actual risk of preschool children. Internal validation was conducted in an independent validation set, and the results showed that the AUC of the ROC curve was 0.967(95%CI: 0.919-1.000), the H-L test was χ2=3.818, P=0.873, and the decision curve indicated that within the threshold range of 0.01-0.99, the net return rate was greater than 0, further suggesting that the model assessment had good consistency with the actual risk.CONCLUSION: Age, parental history of myopia, AL/CR, SFCT, and ACD are risk factors for myopia in preschool children. The Logistic regression risk assessment model constructed based on these factors has high evaluation value and can effectively evaluate the probability of myopia occurrence in individuals, providing reference for individualized prevention of myopia risk in preschool children.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TurboHawk plaque resection system in the treatment of lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans.Methods Clinical data of 36 patients with atherosclerotic occlusion of lower extremity treated with TurboHawk from January 2016 to August 2017 were retrospectively collected.The characteristics of lesion,improvement of symptoms,ankle brachial index (ABI) and postoperative complications were analyzed.The measurement data were expressed as ((x) ± s),All patients were reviewed every 3 months after operation,followed up for 3-18 months,with an average of (9 ± 0.5) months.And the ABI comparison before and after treatment were performed by paired t test;the counting data were expressed as rate (％),and the comparison of different stages was performed by chi-square test.Results In 36 patients,the technical success rate was 100％,and the symptoms of lower limbs were significantly improved.The ABI (0.85 ±0.07) and ABI (0.75 ±0.10) were significantly better in 3 days and in 3 months after operation than before operation (0.29 ±0.10)(t =37.76,P ＜0.001).Postoperative complications occurred in 2 cases,in one case,the artery dissection was covered with a bare scaffold,and in the other case,the blood vessel was ruptured after resection,and was closured by using balloon angioplasty.Conclusion TurboHawk plaque resection system is an effective,less traumatic and safer option for the treatment of lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect and safety of topical propranolol hydrochloride gel for treatment of infantile hemangioma. METHODS Thirty nude mice (BALA/c, nu/nu) were divided into three groups, experimental group, control group and normal group. Human hemangioma endothelial cells cultured in vitro were injected subcutaneously in experimental group and control group to establish infantile hemangioma model. Topical propranolol hydrochloride gel was applied on the surface of the hemangioman in experimental group and normal group. Tumor volumn change and the skin situations (edema, erythema, ulceration) were observed at different periods. 45 days after cell injection, the mice were killed and plasma concentration was detected in the experimental group and the control group by high performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detector, and tumors were subjected to histopathologic examination and immunohistochemistry for CD31 and CD34. The correlation between volumes and plasma concentration was statistically analyzed with SPSS 13.0 paired samples t test with α = 0.05 as statistical standard.

RESULTSAt 45 days, the volume of the tumor in control group was (366.57 ± 17.08) mm³, which has a significant difference as compared to the experimental group (13.36 ± 2.09) mm³ (P < 0.05); and the plasma concentration was (16.83 ± 1.53) ng/ml in experimental group, and (18.42 ± 2.21) ng/ ml in normal group (P > 0.05 ). Topical propranolol hydrochloride gel (3%) has no irritation to nude mice's skin.

CONCLUSIONSTopical application of 3% propranolol hydrochloride gel is effective and safe for the treatment of infantile hemangioma.
