Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of accelerated epithelium-off corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in the treatment of corneal ectasia after keratorefractive surgery.Methods:An observational case series study was performed.Twelve patients (22 eyes) diagnosed with corneal ectasia after keratorefractive surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University were enrolled from January 2016 to December 2018.All the patients received accelerated epithelium-off CXL and were followed up for 12 months.Before and 1 week, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the operation, the uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (LogMAR) unit were measured.The sphericity, cylindricity, and spherical equivalent were examined by Topcon auto refractor.The maximum keratometry (Kmax) of the front surface, mean keratometry (Km) of the front surface, Km of the back surface, symmetry index of front surface (SIf), symmetry index of back surface (SIb), thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), total aberrations, total high-order aberrations, coma aberration, trefoil aberration and spherical aberration were detected by the Sirius analyzer.The depth of corneal demarcation lines was determined by optical coherence tomography.The intraocular pressure was measured by the non-contact tonometry.The corneal endothelial cell density was assayed by the endothelial cell densitometry.The inflammatory reaction and haze were observed with a slit lamp at different time points after surgery.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (No.KY2020063). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before entering the cohort.Results:Among the 22 eyes of 12 cases, 3 eyes of 2 cases (13.64%) underwent small incision lenticule extraction, and 19 eyes of 10 cases (86.36%) underwent excimer laser in situ keratomileusis.The UCVA (LogMAR), BCVA (LogMAR), cylindricity and spherical equivalent before the operation were 0.61±0.42, 0.24±0.23, (-2.83±2.39)D, (-3.60±2.66)D, which were significantly worse than 0.45±0.31, 0.12±0.15, (-2.11±1.67)D, (-3.12±2.31)D at 12 months after the operation ( t=4.054, 4.956, -3.728, -2.742; all at P<0.05). The front surface Kmax, front surface Km and SIf at 12 months after the operation were (48.37±5.80), (41.49±3.04), (5.36±4.07)D, which were significantly lower than (49.61±5.97), (41.66±2.97), (5.85±4.18)D before the operation ( t=5.949, 2.278, 2.719; all at P<0.05). There was no significant difference in sphericity, Km of the back surface, SIb, TCT, total aberrations, total high-order aberrations, coma aberration, trefoil aberration, spherical aberration, intraocular pressure and endothelial cell density between before and 12 months after the operation (all at P>0.05). Grade 0.5-2 haze occurred in 8 eyes of 4 patients one month postoperatively.After administration of prednisolone acetate eye drops, haze decreased or disappeared 3 months postoperatively, with UCVA and BCVA unchanged.A corneal demarcation line with a depth of (285.40±51.61)μm was found in 11 eyes of 6 cases at 1 month after operation. Conclusions:Accelerated epithelium-off CXL can significantly improve visual acuity, reduce corneal astigmatism and corneal curvature, as well as effectively prevent the progress of corneal ectasia.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of post-stroke depression (PSD) in patients with first acute stroke 6 months after onset.Methods:Three hundred and sixty-seven patients with acute stroke who were treated for the first time in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected retrospectively. After onset for 6 months, the patients were followed up and divided into PSD group and non-PSD group. The clinical data, blood index, imaging data, degree of nerve damage and the patient's stigma level were compared between the two groups.Results:Totally 182 and 185 cases were included in the PSD and non-PSD groups, respectively. The incidence of PSD at 6 months post-stroke was 49.6% (182/367). The results of univariate analysis showed that diseased region, drinking history, monthly income, standard of culture, serum cortisol, total cholesterol (TC), high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness-8 Chronic Disease Stigma Scale-8(SSCI-8) scores, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores and subtype of stroke were risk factors for PSD ( P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that diseased region at frontal lobe ( OR = 3.245, P = 0.011), basal ganglia region ( OR = 2.820, P = 0.007), cerebellar hemisphere ( OR = 4.594, P = 0.010) and serum cortisol ( OR = 1.174, P<0.001), hs-CRP ( OR = 1.057, P<0.001), SSCI-8 scores ( OR = 1.674, P<0.001), NIHSS scores ( OR = 1.283, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for PSD. Conclusions:PSD is a common complication in patients with stroke. Diseased region (at frontal lobe, basal ganglia region, cerebellar hemispheres), hs-CRP, serum cortisol, level of morbidity stigma and degree of neurological impairment are development risk factors for the PSD at 6 months of acute stroke.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of echocardiographic parameters among the many parameters of two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography(2D-TTE) and three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (3D-STI) that can be used for early identification of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(FHCM) mutation gene carriers, and construct a Nomogram prediction model, in order to provide a diagnostic method for early identification of G+ P- patients for clinical practice.Methods:A total of 15 FHCM families admitted to the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from November 2017 to August 2022 were enrolled.Whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing technology were used for gene detection, among which 54 were G+ P- and 75 were G-P-. Stratified random sampling was used to divide the subjects into training set ( n=90) and test set ( n=39) according to the ratio of 7∶3. Philips iE33 ultrasonic diagnostic instrument and TomTec offline software were used to obtain relevant ultrasonic parameters. Lasso regression and Logistic regression were used to screen echocardiographic parameters and obtain independent risk factors for early prediction of G+ P-, based on which a Nomogram prediction model was established. Results:①Lasso-Logistic regression showed that global longitudinal strain(GLS) ( OR=1.739, 95% CI=1.305-2.316) and left ventricular outflow trac velocity time integral(LVOT-VTI) ( OR=1.358, 95% CI=1.072-1.722) could be used as independent risk factors for early prediction of G+ P-. ②The Nomogram prediction model was established based on the above indicators. After 1000 internal verifications of Bootstrap self-sampling, the C-indices of the training set and the test set were 0.885 (95% CI=0.816-0.954), 0.878 (95% CI=0.764-0.992), which had good internal consistency. ③The results of the calibration curve showed that the risk of G+ P- predicted by the Nomogram model was basically consistent with the actual risk (training set P=0.990, test set P=0.961); the clinical decision curve shows that under different threshold probabilities, using this prediction model to provide patients with clinical decision-making could bring benefits to patients. Conclusions:Echocardiographic parameters GLS and LVOT-VTI can be used as independent risk factors to predict FHCM mutation gene carriers. The Nomogram prediction model has good discrimination, goodness of fit and clinical benefit in identifying whether the family members of FHCM patients carry the mutation gene, and it can provide a new idea and evaluation method for the early identification of FHCM mutation gene carriers by echocardiography.

The research management department should strengthen the publicity and training of clinical research ethics of medical staff, to improve their clinical research ethics knowledge literacy, and ensure the well-functioning of clinical research ethics review.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Chenpi Huoxiangtang against diarrhea based on network pharmacology and experimental verification. MethodThe active components and targets of Chenpi Huoxiangtang were retrieved from Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP）， and targets related to diarrhea from GeneCards and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）. Thereby， the common targets were screened out. The component-target-disease network and protein-protein interaction （PPI） network were constructed with Cytoscape 3.7.1 and STRING. Bioconductor and R language were employed for gene ontology （GO） term enrichment and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment of core targets， and AutoDockTools 1.5.6 and AutoDockVina 1.1.2 for molecular docking. Finally， animal experiment was carried out for verification. ResultA total of 51 active components 226 targets of Chenpi Huoxiangtang and 37 common targets of the medicine and the disease were screened out. The core targets were involved in 1 249 GO terms （P<0.05） and 110 KEGG pathways （P<0.05）， mainly the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）， Janus kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT）， hypoxia inducible factor （HIF）-1， and mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） pathways. Molecular docking suggested that hesperidin and Akt1 showed the highest binding affinity. Animal experiment demonstrated that Chenpi Huoxiangtang significantly alleviated the diarrhea symptoms. The diarrhea index on the first day of administration decreased to 0.92， which was statistically different from that （1.24） of the model group （P<0.05）. The intestinal ink propulsion rate was 70.36%， higher than that （58.20%） in the model group （P<0.01）. Moreover， intestinal peristalsis was improved by the decoction. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） indicated the decrease in the levels of interleukin-6 （IL-6） and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） （P<0.05） and increase in the levels of Akt1， epidermal growth factor （EGF）， and epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe active components of Chenpi Huoxiangtang mainly regulate PI3K/Akt， MAPK， and other signaling pathways through Akt1， IL-6， IL-1β， EGF， EGFR， and other core targets， thereby relieving diarrhea. This study is expected to lay a basis for the research on the pharmacological mechanism of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium-Pogostemonis Herba combination and the scientific connotation of their compatibility.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of ultrasound in posterior fossa anomalies (PFA) at 11-13 + 6 gestational weeks by measuring brainstem (BS), brainstem-to-occipital bone (BSOB) diameter and BS/BSOB ratio. Methods:A total of 209 normal fetuses (control group) were randomly selected from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University, between March 2018 and November 2021. Reference ranges for BS, BSOB diameter and BS/BSOB ratio were obtained on the mid-sagittal view of the fetal profile and the relationship of three parameters and crown-rump length (CRL) was investigated. The intra- and inter-observer reliabilities were determined by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) in 30 normal fetuses. Fourteen fetuses diagnosed with PFA in the same period including 10 cases of cystic posterior fossa malformations (cPFM) and 4 cases of open spine bifida (OSB) were retrospectively selected to compare BS, BSOB diameter and the BS/BSOB ratio with control group.Results:BS and BSOB diameters were successfully obtained in all control fetuses (100%), and the intra- and inter-observer reliabilities for BS and BSOB diameters were good (ICC=0.877, 0.846 and 0.939, 0.895). In the control group, BS and BSOB diameter linearly correlated with CRL ( r=0.867, 0.794; all P<0.001), while the BS/BSOB ratio was 0.75 (0.71, 0.79). There were significant differences of BSOB diameter and BS/BSOB ratio between control group and PFA group (all P<0.05). Except for one isolated vermian hypoplasia (VH), the BSOB diameters in 9 (90%) cases of cPFM were above the 95th percentile of the calculated normal range and were below the 5th percentile in 4(100%) cases of OSB.Except for one isolated VH, the BS/BSOB ratio in 9 (90%) cases of cPFM was below the 5th percentile of the calculated normal range. The BS/BSOB ratio in 4 (100%) cases of OSB was above the 95th percentile of the calculated normal range. Conclusions:The measurements of BS and BSOB diameter are feasible with good repeatability. Abnormal BSOB diameter and BS/BSOB ratio are suggestive for PFA. The posterior fossa of isolated VH can be normal in the first trimester.

Objective:To observe and analyze the correlation between time within target glucose range (TIR) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and the risk of diabetic retinopathy (DR).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From March 2020 to August 2021, 91 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who were hospitalized in Department of Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases, Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University, were included in the study. All patients underwent Oburg's no-dilatation ultra-wide-angle laser scan ophthalmoscopy, HbA1c and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) examinations. According to the examination results and combined with the clinical diagnostic criteria of DR, the patients were divided into non-DR (NDR) group and DR group, with 50 and 41 cases respectively. The retrospective CGM system was used to monitor the subcutaneous interstitial fluid glucose for 7 to 14 consecutive days, and the TIR was calculated. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between TIR, HbAlc and DR in patients with T2DM0. At the same time, a new indicator was generated, the predicted probability value (PRE_1), which was generated to represent the combined indicator of TIR and HbA1c in predicting the occurrence of DR. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to analyze the value of TIR, HbAlc and PRE_1 in predicting the occurrence of DR.Results:The TIR of patients in the NDR group and DR group were (81.58±15.51)% and (67.27±22.09)%, respectively, and HbA1c were (8.03±2.16)% and (9.01±2.01)%, respectively. The differences in TIR and HbA1c between the two groups of patients were statistically significant ( t=3.501,-2.208; P=0.001, 0.030). The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that TIR, HbA1c and DR were significantly correlated (odds ratio=0.960, 1.254; P=0.002, 0.036). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of TIR, HbA1c and PRE_1 predicting the risk of DR were 0.704, 0.668, and 0.707, respectively [95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.597-0.812, P=0.001; 95% CI 0.558-0.778, P=0.006; 95% CI 0.602-0.798, P=0.001]. There was no statistically significant difference between TIR, HbA1c and PRE_1 predicting the AUC of DR risk ( P>0.05). The linear equation between HbAlc and TIR was HbAlc (%) = 11.37-0.04×TIR (%). Conclusions:TIR and HbA1c are both related to DR and can predict the risk of DR. The combined use of the two does not improve the predictive value of DR. There is a linear correlation between TIR and HbAlc.
