AIM: To explore the efficacy of bilateral lateral rectus recession in the treatment of basic intermittent exotropia. METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 104 patients with basic intermittent strabismus admitted to our hospital from October 2022 to October 2023, patients were randomly divided into a study group of 52 cases and a control group of 52 cases using a random number ranking method. The control group received unilateral recess-resect, while the study group received bilateral lateral rectus recession, the differences in surgical success rate, postoperative strabismus, and postoperative exotropia drift were compared between two groups.RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups at 1 d, 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery(all P>0.05). The strabismus in the 6 m and 33 cm eye positions at 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery were lower than those at 1 d after surgery(all P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the strabismus in the 6 m and 33 cm eye positions between the two groups at 1 d, 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery(all P>0.05), and there was statistical significant difference between the two groups in exotropia drift at different postoperative time points(all P<0.05). The exotropia drift of both groups increased at 3 and 6 mo after surgery compared to 1 mo after surgery, and the exotropia drift at 6 mo after surgery was greater than that at 3 mo after surgery(all P<0.05). However, the exotropia drift of the study group at 3 and 6 mo after surgery was lower than that of the control group(all P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Bilateral lateral rectus recession for the treatment of basic-type intermittent exotropia effectively reduces the amount of postoperative exotropia drift, and it has better long-term stability.

Objective:To analyze the etiological characteristics, serotype distribution, drug resistance and molecular typing characteristics based on data collected by active surveillance of foodborne diseases in Shanxi Province from 2021 to 2022.Methods:Fecal and anal swabs for foodborne disease tests were collected from 17 sentinel hospitals in Shanxi Province from 2021 to 2022. The pathogens included Shigella, Salmonella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and 5 types of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli ( E. coli). The positive strains were identified by mass spectrometry or systematic biochemistry. Salmonella and Shigella were serotyped by slide agglutination, and diarrheagenic E. coli was typed by multiplex fluorescence PCR. Vibrio parahaemolyticus was tested for tlh/ tdh/ trh virulence genes by multiplex fluorescent PCR. All strains were also tested for drug resistance by the microbroth dilution method. Molecular typing was performed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results:A total of 4 481 samples were collected from patients with diarrhea, and 555 target strains were detected, with a detection rate of 12.39%(555/4 481). Among them, there were 365 strains of Salmonella, 175 strains of diarrheagenic E. coli, 15 strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and no Shigella. There were 32 serotypes of Salmonella, and the dominant serotypes were 158 strains of Salmonella senteritidis and 124 strains of Salmonella typhimurium. diarrheagenic E. coli classification: 79 strains of enteroaggregative E. coli, 72 strains of enteropathogenic E. coli, 23 strains of enterotoxic E. coli, 1 strain of enterohemorrhagic E. coli, and none of enteroinvasive E. coli. For Vibrio parahaemolyticus virulence gene carriage, all strains carried tlh; 11 strains (73.33%, 11/15) carried tdh only; 2 strains (13.33%, 2/15) carried trh; 1 strain (6.67%, 1/15) carried both tdh and trh genes; 1 strain (6.67%, 1/15) did not carry these two virulence genes. Antimicrobial resistance tests presented that Salmonella had the highest resistance rate to ampicillin (85.21%, 311/365), followed by naphridic acid (66.58%, 243/365), and multi-drug resistance (78.63%, 287/365), resulting in 135 drug resistance spectrums. The resistance rate of diarrheagenic E. coli to ampicillin was the highest (81.71%, 143/175), followed by tetracycline (67.43%, 118/175), and multi-drug resistance (72.57%, 127/175), resulting in 81 drug resistance spectrums. Vibrio parahaemolyticus had the highest resistance rate to cefazolin (93.33%, 14/15), followed by tetracycline (26.67%, 4/15) and multi-drug resistance (20.00%, 3/15), resulting in 3 drug resistance spectrums. A total of 158 strains of Salmonella enteritidi, 124 strains of Salmonella typhimurium, 13 strains of Salmonella london and 175 strains of DEC were typed by PFGE. Among 470 strains of PFGE typing, 6 strains of DEC were degraded by DNA, while the remaining strains obtained effective PFGE band. Salmonella enteritidi were divided into 64 PFGE band types, Salmonella typhimurium were divided into 115 PFGE band types, Salmonella london were divided into 13 PFGE band types and diarrheagenic E. coli were divided into 165 PFGE band types. Conclusions:Shigella is not detected in the active surveillance, and Salmonella is detected most frequently. Salmonella and diarrheagenic E. coli have the highest resistance rates to ampicillin, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus has the highest resistance rates to cefazolin. The PFGE classification is polymorphic, and the dominant band type is not obvious. The evidence of multi-drug resistance suggests further strengthening monitoring and management of drug resistance.

ObjectiveBased on the experience of traditional quality evaluation, the quality of Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma(AMR) with different production methods such as direct seeding, transplanting after seedling raising, topping and non-topping, and difference in growth years was compared. MethodVernier caliper was used to measure the trait data of AMR in different production methods. Paraffin sections of AMR with different production methods were made by saffron solid green staining, and the microstructure was observed. The contents of water-soluble and alcohol-soluble extracts in AMR with different production methods were determined according to the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The content of water-soluble total polysaccharides in AMR with different production methods was detected by sulfuric acid-anthrone method. Fiber analyzer was used to detect the content of fiber components in AMR with different production methods. The contents of monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and some secondary metabolites in AMR with different production methods were detected by ultra performance liquid chromatography(UPLC), and the differences of chemical components were compared by multivariate statistical analysis methods such as principal component analysis(PCA) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA). ResultIn terms of traits, the 3-year-old AMR with direct seeding and without topping was close to the high-quality AMR with "phoenix-head and crane-neck, strong sweetness and clear aroma" recorded in ancient materia medica, followed by the 3-year-old AMR with topping after transplanting, while the 2-year-old AMR with topping after transplanting with high market circulation rate was generally fat and strong with mild odor. In the microscopic aspect, the arrangement of xylem vessels and fiber bundles in the 3-year-old samples formed two obvious rings. Compared with the 2-year-old samples cultivated in Bozhou and Zhejiang, the 3-year-old samples without topping after transplanting had more wood fibers. In terms of chemical composition, the contents of 70% ethanol extract, fructose, glucose, sucrose, 1-kestose, atractylenolide Ⅰ, chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid and other components in 3-year-old AMR with direct seeding and without topping were significantly higher than those in the other three samples(P<0.05). The contents of cellulose, 70% ethanol extract, sucrose, atractylenolide Ⅰ, atractylone and other components in 3-year-old AMR with topping after transplanting were significantly higher than those in the 2-year-old AMR with high market circulation rate(P<0.05), while the contents of water-soluble extract and water-soluble total polysaccharides in 2-year-old samples with topping after transplanting were significantly higher than those in the 3-year-old AMR with topping after transplanting, direct seeding and without topping(P<0.05). ConclusionUnder the current mainstream production mode, too much manual intervention makes AMR heavily enriched in polysaccharides and increased the yield, but the accumulation of sweet substances, fragrant substances and fiber substances is insufficient, which affects its quality. The current quality standard of AMR has some shortcomings in guiding the high quality production of it, it is suggested to revise the quality standard of AMR, supplement the quantitative analysis of secondary metabolites, and strengthen the production of imitation wild AMR.
