AIM:To compare and analyze the effectiveness and safety of reducing the diameter of the back optical zone diameter(BOZD)of orthokeratology lens designed by CRT and VST in controlling the progression of myopia in children and adolescents.METHODS:Retrospective study. The study subjects were 400 myopia patients aged 8-16 years who were admitted to the orthokeratology fitting center of our hospital from June 2019 to May 2022, with 400 eyes(including right eye data analysis). The subjects were divided into CRT-S group(BOZD<6.0 mm), CRT group(BOZD=6.0 mm), VST-S group(BOZD<6.2 mm), VST group(BOZD=6.2 mm)according to the brand of orthokeratology lens and BOZD group, with 100 cases in each group. Uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), corneal flat K value, axial length, spherical equivalent, and incidence of corneal injury were collected and analyzed at 1 d, 1 wk, 1 and 6 mo, 1 and 2 a, respectively.RESULTS:After wearing lenses for 1 d, the UCVA of the VST-S group improved the fastest, but after 1 wk, all groups reached a good UCVA, and there was no significant difference between groups. The corneal flat K value of the CRT-S group decreased the most after wearing lenses for 6 mo, and there was no significant difference in the corneal flat K value of all groups after 1 year of lens wearing. At each time point, the axial length growth decreased significantly after reducing the BOZD of the same brand of orthokeratology lens. At 6 mo, there was no significant difference in the axial length growth and defocus ring diameter between the CRT-S group and the VST-S group, but at 1 and 2 a, the VST-S group had significantly lower axial length growth and defocus ring diameter than the CRT-S group. The growth of the diopter sphere and spherical equivalent(SE)was significantly reduced when the BOZD of the same brand of orthokeratology lens was reduced at 2 a follow-up. The VST-S group had the smallest changes in the degree of SE and had the best myopia control effect. There was no significant difference in the change value of the diopter cylinder and the incidence of corneal injury among the four groups.CONCLUSION:Reducing the BOZD of the orthokeratology lens can effectively control the growth of the axial length and the progression of myopia degree. The myopia control effect of the VST lens is better than that of the CRT lens after reducing the BOZD. Reducing the BOZD of the orthokeratology lens does not increase the risk of additional corneal injury.

Postoperative stress symptoms are caused by surgical trauma,and now still lack active intervention methods to promote the recovery of body function in the field of western medicine.Professor Cai Bingqin analyzed the etiology and pathogenesis of stress symptoms after abdominal surgery,which usually manifested as abnormal sweating,sleep disorders,emotional disorders,and gastrointestinal dysfunction,and then put forward the concept of postoperative stress syndrome for the perioperative period.Professor Cai Bingqin believes that surgical stimulation,as the important etiological factor responsible for postoperative stress symptoms,can cause excessive stress in the body,which results in a series of symptoms affecting the recovery of patients.Liver plays a defensive and adaptive role in postoperative stress by regulating qi movement,blood circulation and emotions.The symptoms of abnormal sweating,sleep disorders and emotional disorders are related with the function of the liver in governing emotions,housing the ethereal soul,and ensuring the free movement of qi,while the gastrointestinal dysfunction manifestations of poor appetite,abdominal distention and constipation are due to the disharmony of liver and spleen.For the treatment of postoperative stress syndrome,Professor Cai proposes the principle of treating disease from the perspective of liver,and the methods of soothing liver and alleviating depression,and warming and activating qi movement are adopted.Sini San(Sini Powder for Soothing Liver and Regulating Qi)is commonly used as the basic prescription to ensure the normal function of liver and to ensure the free movement of qi,and then the harmony of qi and blood and the unobstruction of blood vessels will be achieved.Additionally,the assistance of therapy for invigorating spleen to dissolve dampness,and replenishing qi to consolidate superficies can adjust zang-fu organs'dysfunction,and will restore the balance of qi-blood and yin-yang.The proposal of"postoperative stress syndrome"will provide an approach to the management of perioperative period with traditional Chinese medicine,and will become the beneficial supplement to the existing fast-track surgery system.

Dissemination of legal knowledge is a fundamental component of establishing the rule of law.Effective imple-mentation of legal education is of paramount importance for enhancing the capacity of public hospitals to govern in accordance with legal frameworks while mitigating institutional risks.Confronting challenges including insufficient legal awareness among staff,scarcity of specialized personnel,and work-education conflicts during implementation,the Sixth Affiliated Hospital,of Sun Yat-sen University has adopted a multidimensional strategy.This approach involved clarifying departmental accountability,optimizing internal regulatory frameworks,leveraging leadership engagement from key administrators,and targeting high-risk domains such as clinical practice and procurement management.Through these efforts,the hospital has fostered a concerted force for law popu-larization,solidified its foundation,intensified its efforts,and developed distinctive approaches in this regard.Consequently,it has achieved certain results in law popularization,with its system gradually improving,a significant enhancement in legal aware-ness,a steady decline in complaints and disputes,and successful support for the review of its tertiary hospital status.These a-chievements provide actionable insights for law popularization efforts in public hospitals.
5.Epidemiological characteristics and trends of other infectious diarrhea among children during 2014-2020
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(7):922-925
Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and trends of other infectious diarrhea among children under 18 years old in Guangzhou City from 2014 to 2020, and to explore the correlation between climatic factors and the incidence of the disease, so as to provide reference for the early prevention of infectious diseases.
Methods:
The data of cases of other infectious diarrhea and meteorological data of children under 18 years old in Guangzhou City from 2014 to 2020 were collected through the Chinese Infectious Disease Reporting System and the Guangzhou Meteorological Bureau. The correlation between meteorological factors and the incidence of other infectious diarrhea was analyzed using negative binomial regression.
Results:
A total of 104 566 cases of other infectious diarrhea among children under 18 years old were reported in Guangzhou City from 2014 to 2020, with a male to female ratio of 1.48∶1. The incidence rate was the highest in 2017 (980.83 per 100 000) and the lowest in 2020 (388.22 per 100 000). The peak of incidence occurred from October to March of the following year. Children under 5 years old accounted for 87.95% of all cases. The number of cases of other infectious diarrhea was negatively correlated with the temperature of the previous 6 days ( IRR = -0.07 ), and positively correlated with the temperature difference on the day of onset ( IRR =0.02) (both P <0.05). It was also positively correlated with the wind speed of the previous 7 days ( IRR=0.07, P <0.05), but there was no statistically significant correlation with the relative humidity on the day of onset ( IRR=-0.00, P >0.05).
Conclusions
Low temperature, large temperature difference, and high wind speed can increase the risk of other infectious diarrhea. It is necessary to strengthen the prediction and early warning in conjunction with meteorological changes, and warn kindergartens and schools to enhance preventive measures against the clustering of other infectious diarrhea cases.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate to evaluate the performance of equilibrium dialysis combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the accurate measurement of free testosterone in clinical samples. Mthods We conducted a prospective observational study using 161 serum samples from healthy women of reproductive 26(24, 32)years at the Gynecology Outpatient department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from June to September 2024, and their concentrations were determined. In this study, after equilibrium dialysis of serum samples, free testosterone was extracted from the dialysate using a magnetic bead-based method. It was then directly derivatized using hydroxylamine hydrochloride in situ after elution from the magnetic bead and further quantified by LC-MS/MS.Method:validation assessed linearity, limit of quantification (LOQ), precision, accuracy, matrix effects, and carryover according to established guidelines. Data were analyzed using Origin 2019 and WPS Office 2019.Results:The method demonstrated excellent linearity ( R2>0.99) across 1-250 pg/ml with an LOQ of 1 pg/ml. The coefficients of variation for both intra-day and inter-day imprecision were less than 10% while recovery rates ranged from 92.60% to 99.10%. Matrix effect deviations were all within the range of 6% and carryover was negligible. Conclusions:In this study, the established method of magnetic bead-based extraction followed by in situ derivatization combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry performed well, and could be further applied to the detection of free testosterone concentration in childbearing age women.
