Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked recessive genetic disorder caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene, classified as a rare congenital muscular disease. Its clinical features include progressive skeletal muscle weakness, often involving respiratory and cardiac muscles, and frequently associated with spinal deformities. This paper reports the diagnosis, perioperative management, and follow-up of a case of DMD with multisystem involvement and severe scoliosis, aiming to provide a reference for clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and treatment regimens of patients with severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia, so that to improve the understanding and management of severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 15 patients with severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia in the Jiangnan University Affiliated Central Hospital and Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from January 2021 to December 2024. The clinical data on demographics, epidemiological history, clinical symptoms, laboratory results, imaging findings, treatment regimens, and prognosis were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher′s exact test. Results:Among the 15 patients, 13 were male and two were female, with ages ranging from 44 to 85 years and six over 65 years old. Six patients reported a history of poultry contact. The main complication was respiratory failure(14/15), followed by shock (3/15), rhabdomyolysis (2/15), encephalitis (1/15) and lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (1/15). The main clinical manifestations included fever (15/15), cough (11/15), dyspnea (8/15) and consciousness disturbance (5/15). Laboratory tests showed normal (7/15) or mild elevated (6/15) white blood cell counts, elevated neutrophil counts (9/15), decreased lymphocyte counts (15/15), elevated C-reactive protein (15/15), procalcitonin (11/15), liver enzymes (15/15) and D-dimer (15/15), normal creatinine levels (12/15), elevated creatine kinase (10/15), and decreased oxygenation reserve index (15/15). Chest computed tomography (CT) demonstrated large-scale consolidation (9/15) and patchy streaky opacities (9/15), frequently involving bilateral lungs (10/15). The pleural effusion was noted in 14 cases. Antibiotic regimens included tetracycline combined with fluoroquinolone (eight patients), fluoroquinolone alone (five patients), macrolide combined with fluoroquinolone (one patient), and third-generation tetracycline alone (one patient). Glucocorticoids were administered to seven patients. All 15 cases improved and were discharged from hospital. One-month follow-up showed no statistically significant difference in the incidence of residual streaks between glucocorticoid-treated and non-glucocorticoid-treated patients (1/5 vs 2/4, Fisher′s exact test, P>0.05). Conclusions:The main clinical manifestations of severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia are fever, cough, dyspnea, and consciousness disturbance, often complicated with respiratory failure and shock. Chest imaging commonly shows bilateral large-scale consolidation and patchy streaks with pleural effusion. Laboratory results suggest normal or mildly elevated white blood cell counts, decreased lymphocyte counts, elevated inflammatory markers, liver enzymes and thrombus markers. A tetracycline-base regimen is preferred for severe patients. The prognosis is generally favorable under early diagnosis and targeted antimicrobial treatment.

The SEPN1 gene encodes selenoprotein N,and mutations in this gene can cause SEPN1-re-lated myopathy(SEPN1-RM).SEPN1-RM is an extremely rare and complex congenital myopathy with an in-sidious onset and slow progression,often leading to multi-system involvement.The main clinical manifestations include axial and proximal muscle weakness,early respiratory dysfunction,and spinal deformities.This article reports the diagnosis and treatment conditions for a pediatric patient carrying novel mutation in SEPN1 gene who underwent spinal orthopedic fusion surgery.After detailed multidisciplinary evaluation,adequate preoperative preparation,and meticulous perioperative management,the patient successfully underwent high-risk spinal or-thopedic surgery and recovered well.Based on the patient's diagnosis,perioperative management,and follow-up,combined with the latest domestic and international literature,this article systematically discusses the diag-nostic and therapeutic characteristics of this rare disease.The aim is to enhance clinicians'understanding of such diseases and to provide evidence-based support and reference for perioperative comprehensive management for such diseases.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy and safety of ZKY001 eye drops with different concentrations in the treatment of corneal epithelial defects(CED)after primary pterygium excision.METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial. From March 15, 2022 to November 14, 2022, patients with primary pterygium who had undergone surgery were recruited from 12 tertiary hospitals across China. Using block randomization, 178 patients(178 eyes)were randomly assigned to 3 groups in a 1:1:1 ratio: 0.002% ZKY001 group(n=59), 0.004% ZKY001 group(n=59), and placebo group(n=60, receiving ZKY001 sham eye drops). Subjects in each group received 1 drop of the study drug 4 times per day for 4 d. The percentage of CED area recovery from baseline, the first complete healing time of CED area, the number of first complete healing cases of CED, and changes in visual analogue scale(VAS)scores for eye discomfort including eye pain, foreign body sensation, tearing and photophobia were observed.RESULTS: In terms of improvement in CED, there were no statistically significant differences among the three groups including the first healing time of CED, the percentage improvement in CED area compared to baseline, and the percentage of first healing cases at different follow-up visits(all P>0.05). Numerically, the first healing time of CED was shorter in the test groups compared to the placebo group(67.87±21.688 h for the 0.002% ZKY001 group, 61.48±22.091 h for the 0.004% ZKY001 group, and 68.85±20.851 h for the placebo group). On D1 morning, the percentage improvement in CED area compared to baseline was maximally different from the placebo group, and the numerical difference advantage was maintained at subsequent follow-up visits. The number of first healing cases in the CED area at different follow-up visits was higher in the test groups than the placebo group. In terms of improvement in ocular discomfort, the total VAS scores were lower in the test groups compared to the placebo group, mainly due to reductions in foreign body sensation and pain scores. At D3, the 0.004% ZKY001 group showed statistically significant improvement in foreign body sensation(P<0.017). In terms of safety, the overall incidence of adverse events was low(9.0%)and similar among groups.CONCLUSION: The use of ZKY001 eyedrops after primary pterygium surgery can safely improve the CED repair, and alleviate postoperative symptoms caused by CED.

Objective:To analyze and compare the corneal higher order aberration (HOA) after femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).Methods:A non-randomized controlled study was conducted.Sixty myopic patients (60 eyes) who underwent FS-LASIK or SMILE correction at Shandong Eye Hospital from April 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled and the data from the right eye were collected for analysis.Thirty cases (30 eyes) who received FS-LASIK in FS-LASIK group and 30 cases (30 eyes) who received SMILE in SMILE group had a preoperative equivalent spherical diopter of (-5.36±1.11)D and (-4.93±1.03)D, respectively.The HOA of the 6-mm anterior surface, posterior surface, and whole cornea were measured before surgery and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery using Pentacam.The root mean square values (μm) of total corneal HOA, spherical aberration, coma and trefoil were obtained.Differences in the above root mean square values at different time points were compared between the two groups.The study protocol adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shandong Eye Hospital (No.SDSYKYY20180306). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:The preoperative and 1-, 3-, 6-, 12-month postoperative total HOA of the anterior corneal surface were (0.428±0.126), (0.775±0.169), (0.811±0.194), (0.759±0.214), (0.704±0.199)μm in the FS-LASIK group and (0.409±0.094), (0.656±0.148), (0.681±0.161), (0.668±0.175), (0.648±0.160)μm in the SMILE group, with a significant overall difference ( Fgroup=5.652, P=0.024; Ftime=107.169, P<0.01). Compared with SMILE group, the postoperative total HOA of anterior corneal surface and spherical aberration at different time points were increased in FS-LASIK group, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). Compared with before surgery, the postoperative total HOA of the anterior corneal surface and spherical aberration at different time points were increased in both groups, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). In the two groups, the 6- and 12-month postoperative total HOA of the anterior corneal surface were reduced in comparison with the 3-month postoperative ones of the anterior corneal surface, and the 12-month postoperative spherical aberrations of the anterior corneal surface were significantly reduced in comparison with the 1- and 3-month postoperative ones of the anterior corneal surface, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). There were significant differences in the coma and trefoil of the anterior corneal surface between before and after the operation (coma: Ftime=47.848, P<0.01; trefoil: Ftime=2.497, P=0.046). Compared with before surgery, the postoperative coma was significantly increased in the two groups (all at P<0.05). There were significant differences in total corneal HOA and spherical aberration at different postoperative time points between the two groups (total HOA: Fgroup=8.093, P=0.008; Ftime=125.019, P<0.01.spherical aberration: Fgroup=4.771, P=0.037; Ftime=34.033, P<0.01). Compared with SMILE group, the total corneal HOA and spherical aberration were significantly increased in FS-LASIK group at different postoperative time points (all at P<0.05). Compared with before surgery, postoperative total HOA of the anterior corneal surface and spherical aberration at different postoperative time points were significantly increased in both groups (all at P<0.05). In both groups, the 12-month postoperative corneal spherical aberration was significantly reduced in comparison with the 1- and 3-month postoperative ones (all at P<0.05). There was a significant difference in coma between before and after surgery ( Ftime=30.829, P<0.01). Compared with before surgery, the postoperative coma was significantly increased at different time points in both groups (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Both FS-LASIK and SMILE increase the HOA of the anterior corneal surface and the whole cornea.Compared with FS-LASIK, SMILE introduces less HOA of the anterior corneal surface and the whole cornea as well as spherical aberrations.
