AIM: To compare objective visual quality and vision-related quality of life after implantation of different presbyopia-correcting intraocular lenses(PC-IOLs).METHODS:A prospective, non-randomized controlled study. Cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with PC-IOL implantation at Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from September 2023 and December 2025 were included. These patients were divided into three groups according to the type of IOL: the Trifocal IOL group,the Vivity group, and the Synergy group. Follow-ups were conducted at 1 wk,1 and 3 mo postoperatively. Uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(UIVA), and uncorrected near visual acuity(UNVA), objective scatter index(OSI), modulation transfer function cut off(MTF-cut off), and Strehl ratio(SR), as well as contrast visual acuity(CVA)at 100%, 20%, and 9% contrast were assessed. Postoperative defocus curves were plotted. Vision-related quality of life and spectacle independence were evaluated using questionnaires.RESULTS: This study included 101 cataract patients(101 eyes),aged 30-70(53.8±9.7)y,with 59 males and 42 females.The Trifocal group consisted of 33 patients(33 eyes), aged 30-71(51.7±11.3)y, with 21 males and 12 females; the Vivity group consisted of 37 patients(37 eyes), aged 36-71(54.2±9.0)y, with 18 males and 19 females; and the Synergy group consisted of 31 patients(31 eyes), aged 30-73(55.9±8.5)y, with 20 males and 11 females.No significant differences were observed among the three groups in UDVA or UIVA(all P>0.05). Significant differences were found in UNVA among groups(P<0.05). UDVA differed significantly across different time points(P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in UIVA and UNVA(all P>0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, significant differences were found among the three groups in OSI, MTF -cut off, SR, and CVA at all contrast levels(all P<0.05). The defocus curve at postoperative 1 mo showed that the Trifocal group had a smooth and continuous profile from +1.0 D to -3.0 D, providing good distance, intermediate, and near vision. All groups demonstrated smooth transitions in the intermediate range(-1.0 D to -1.5 D), with LogMAR visual acuity better than 0.2. In the near range(-2.5 D to -3.5 D), the Trifocal and Synergy groups performed significantly better than the Vivity group. No significant differences were observed in VF-14 questionnaire scores among groups(P>0.05). For night driving(motorized or non-motorized), the Vivity group performed better than the Trifocal and Synergy groups. Spectacle independence rates were 92.3% in the Trifocal group, 54.1% in the Vivity group, and 80.0% in the Synergy group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: All types of PC-IOLs can effectively improve postoperative full-range visual acuity in cataract patients. There are discrepancies in the objective visual quality between Trifocal IOLs and extended depth of focus(EDOF)IOLs. Some patients suffer from postoperative optical disturbances, which result in certain difficulties with night driving, although patients generally report favorable subjective visual perceptions.

ObjectiveTo establish a model that can quickly identify the aroma components in different parts of Nardostachys jatamansi， so as to provide a quality control basis for the market circulation and clinical use of N. jatamansi. MethodsHeadspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-SPME-GC-MS） combined with Smart aroma database and National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST） database were used to characterize the aroma components in different parts of N. jatamansi， and the aroma components were quantified according to relative response factor（RRF） and three internal standards， and the markers of aroma differences in different parts of N. jatamansi were identified by orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） and cluster thermal analysis based on variable importance in the projection（VIP） value >1 and P<0.01. The odor data of different parts of N. jatamansi were collected by Heracles Ⅱ Neo ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose， and the correlation between compound types of aroma components collected by the ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose and the detection results of HS-SPME-GC-MS was investigated by drawing odor fingerprints and odor response radargrams. Chromatographic peak information with distinguishing ability≥0.700 and peak area≥200 was selected as sensor data， and the rapid identification model of different parts of N. jatamansi was established by principal component analysis（PCA）， discriminant factor alysis（DFA）， soft independent modeling of class analogies（SIMCA） and statistical quality control analysis（SQCA）. ResultsThe HS-SPME-GC-MS results showed that there were 28 common components in the underground and aboveground parts of N. jatamansi， of which 22 could be quantified and 12 significantly different components were screened out. Among these 12 components， the contents of five components（ethyl isovalerate， 2-pentylfuran， benzyl alcohol， nonanal and glacial acetic acid，） in the aboveground part of N. jatamansi were significantly higher than those in the underground part（P<0.01）， the contents of β-ionone， patchouli alcohol， α-caryophyllene， linalyl butyrate， valencene， 1，8-cineole and p-cymene in the underground part of N. jatamansi were significantly higher than those in the aboveground part（P<0.01）. Heracles Ⅱ Neo electronic nose results showed that the PCA discrimination index of the underground and aboveground parts of N. jatamansi was 82， and the contribution rates of the principal component factors were 99.94% and 99.89% when 2 and 3 principal components were extracted， respectively. The contribution rate of the discriminant factor 1 of the DFA model constructed on the basis of PCA was 100%， the validation score of the SIMCA model for discrimination of the two parts was 99， and SQCA could clearly distinguish different parts of N. jatamansi. ConclusionHS-SPME-GC-MS can clarify the differential markers of underground and aboveground parts of N. jatamansi. The four analytical models provided by Heracles Ⅱ Neo electronic nose（PCA， DFA， SIMCA and SQCA） can realize the rapid identification of different parts of N. jatamansi. Combining the two results， it is speculated that terpenes and carboxylic acids may be the main factors contributing to the difference in aroma between the underground and aboveground parts of N. jatamansi.

Objective To analyze the nonlinear relationship between hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) parameters and delayed graft function (DGF) and optimize the construction of a predictive model for DGF. Methods The data of 923 recipients who underwent kidney transplantation from deceased donors were retrospectively analyzed. According to the occurrence of DGF, the recipients were divided into DGF group (n=823) and non-DGF group (n=100). Donor data, HMP parameters and recipient data were analyzed for both groups. The nonlinear relationship between HMP parameters and the occurrence of DGF was explored based on restricted cubic splines (RCS). Over-sampling, under-sampling and balanced sampling were used to address the imbalance in the proportion of DGF to construct logistic regression predictive models. The area under the curve (AUC) of each model was compared in the validation set, and a nomogram model was constructed. Results Donor BMI, cold ischemia time of the donor kidney, and HMP parameters (initial and final pressures, resistance, and perfusion time) were significantly different between the DGF and non-DGF groups (all P<0.05). The RCS analysis revealed a threshold-like nonlinear relationship between HMP parameters and the risk of DGF. Among the models constructed using different sampling methods, the balanced sampling model had the highest AUC. Using this model, a nomogram was constructed to stratify recipients based on risk scores. Recipients in the high-risk group had higher serum creatinine levels at 1, 6, and 12 months after kidney transplantation compared to those in the low-risk group (all P<0.05). Conclusions There is a nonlinear relationship between HMP parameters and the risk of DGF, and the threshold is helpful for organ quality assessment and monitoring of graft function after transplantation. The predictive model for DGF constructed on the base of balanced sampling algorithms helps perioperative decision-making and postoperative graft function monitoring of kidney transplantation.

AIM: To compare the accuracy of intraocular lens(IOL)calculation formulas based on different corneal refractive power in calculating IOL diopters of cataract patients with a history of corneal refractive surgery.METHODS: A prospective clinical study was conducted with a cohort of 32 cataract patients(42 eyes)who had previously undergone myopic laser corneal surgery at Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital between February 2022 and August 2024. The study employed several IOL calculation formulas, including the Haigis-L formula, the Barrett True K formula based on simulated keratometry(SimK), the Haigis formula based on total keratometry(TK), the Potvin-Hill Pentacam(PVP)formula based on corneal true net power(TNP), and the OCT formula based on net corneal power(NCP). These formulas were used to calculate IOL power and predict postoperative refractive outcomes. At 1 mo postoperatively, subjective refraction was performed, and the prediction error(PE), mean absolute prediction error(MAE), median absolute prediction error(MedAE), and the percentage of prediction errors within the ranges of ±0.25, ±0.50, ±0.75, and ±1.0 D were determined.RESULTS: The intraclass correlation coefficient for the four types of corneal refractive power was 0.986(P<0.001). There was no significant difference between TNP and NCP(P=0.491), and there were differences between the other two groups(all P<0.001). Statistically significant differences were observed between PE and 0 for the Haigis-L(K)and Haigis(TK)formulas(all P<0.001). In contrast, no statistically significant differences were noted between PE and 0 for the PVP, OCT, and Barrett True K formulas(all P>0.05). The MedAE value of Barrett True K was the smallest 0.32(0.19, 0.71)D among the five formulas, and there was no significant difference in MedAE among the five formulas(P=0.870). The proportion of eyes with PE within ±0.25 and ±1.0 D in Barrett True K formula was 38%(16/42)and 95%(40/42), respectively. The proportion of eyes within ±0.50 D in PVP formula was 71%(30/42); and the proportion of eyes with PE within ±0.75 D in Haigis(TK)formula was 83%(35/42).CONCLUSION: After corneal refractive surgery, there are differences between different types of corneal refractive power. When calculating IOL, the accuracy of TK combined with Haigis formula is better than that of Haigis-L(K)formula, and Barrett True K formula shows good accuracy.

Objective To identify the indicators associated with poor prognosis by retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of 129 patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) complicated by brain metastases (BMs). Methods We retrospectively assessed the clinical data of 129 LUAD patients with BMs who met the inclusion criteria. Follow-up was conducted through electronic medical record review and telephone consultations. Univariate survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method with corresponding survival curves. Statistically significant variables identified in the univariate analysis were subsequently incorporated into a multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model to further identify independent adverse prognostic factors affecting the survival of LUAD patients with BMs. Results The following factors were significantly associated with patient survival prognosis (P<0.05): pathological morphology, KPS score, number of BMs, presence of genetic variations, quantity of genetic variations, type of genetic variations, EGFR mutation status, Cyfra-211, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) at initial diagnosis. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that pathological morphology, KPS score, number of BMs, NLR at initial diagnosis, and presence of genetic variations served as independent prognostic factors for LUAD patients with BMs (P<0.05). Further analysis of the survival conditions of different treatment subgroups revealed that combined therapy could significantly increase the median survival period of patients, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.034). Conclusion Solid and complex glandular structures, KPS score <80, ≥3 BMs, elevated NLR levels at initial diagnosis, and the presence of genetic alterations are identified as independent poor prognostic factors for LUAD patients with BMs. Combination therapy can significantly prolong the survival of patients.

Objective To explore the application effect of personalized osteotomy guide plate in high tibial osteotomy for patients with knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Methods A total of 99 patients with KOA who underwent open wedge high tibial osteotomy(OWHTO)in our hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were selected and randomly divided into a study group(50 cases)and a control group(49 cases)using a random number table method.The control group received traditional medial OWHTO treatment,and the study group received a combination of medial OWHTO and personalized osteotomy guide plate treatment.The indexes of operation and postoperative rehabilitation,serum inflammatory stress factor[C-reactive protein(CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),cortisol(Cor),adrenocorticotropin(ACTH)],anatomical structure of knee joint[tibial plateau posterior Angle(PTSA),proximal medial tibial Angle(MPT A),hip knee ankle Angle(HKA)],knee function,ACL shape and function,postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results The amount of bleeding,the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy,and the postoperative drainage volume in the study group were(138.69±24.03)ml,(4.83±1.07)times,and(228.95±38.72)ml,respectively,which were all less than those in the control group(154.28±27.16)ml,(7.15±1.14)times,and(271.61±42.19)ml.In the study group,the operation time,incision length,and hospitalization time were(40.96±7.28)min,(8.96±0.85)cm,and(10.73±2.05)d,respectively,which were all shorter than those in the control group[(52.31±10.12)min,(9.51±1.03)cm,and(12.16±2.37)d],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The levels of serum CRP,TNF-α,Cor,and ACTH in the study group on the 3rd day after the operation were(31.36±4.68)mg/L,(26.71±3.84)ng/ml,(241.28±27.45)ng/ml,and(18.65±3.01)pmol/L,respectively,which were lower than those in the control group[(35.07±5.16)mg/L,(30.29±4.15)ng/ml,(279.65±30.12)ng/ml,and(21.73±3.28)pmol/L,respectively],and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The Hospital for Special Surgery(HSS)knee score and Knee Society Score(KSS)of the study group at 12 months after surgery were(81.24±6.85)points and(78.26±6.14)points,respectively,which were higher than those of the control group[(78.08±6.42)points and(75.53±5.82)points,respectively],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05);at the 12th month after surgery,the width of the ACL body in the study group was(5.68±0.71)mm,which was greater than that in the control group[(5.12±0.64)mm].The amount of anterior tibial displacement was(5.81±0.43)mm,which was smaller than that in the control group(6.19±0.41)mm,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05);the incidence of postoperative complications in the study group was 4.00％,which was lower than that in the control group(18.37％),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The combined treatment of medial OWHTO and personalized osteotomy guide plate can reduce surgical trauma in patients with KOA,lower the incidence of complications,facilitate patient recovery,while maintaining the morphology and function of the ACL,and improving prognosis.

Objective To compare the smile incision combined with indirect reduction technique with traditional ORIF technique and systematically evaluate the advantages of this innovative surgical method in terms of functional recovery and postoperative cosmetic effects.Methods A total of 60 patients with midshaft clavicle fractures were enrolled between October 2022 and August 2024.The patients were randomly assigned to either ORIF group(open reduction and internal fixation,n=30)or MIPPO group(MIPPO combined with smile incision,n=30).Outcomes assessed included surgical trauma,functional recovery,and cosmetic outcomes.Results The MIPPO group exhibited significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss[(32.9±7.6)mL vs.(90.2±14.0)mL,P＜0.05],shorter incision length[(3.0±0.5)cm vs.(8.5±1.2)cm,P＜0.05],and reduced operative time compared to the ORIF group.Functional recovery indicators such as bone healing time[(10.1±1.7)weeks vs.(12.8±2.0)weeks,P＜0.05],initial and complete self-care time,and weight-bearing recovery were all significantly improved in the MIPPO group.The Constant-Murley score was higher in the MIPPO group(91.5±5.1 vs.82.4±6.0,P＜0.05).Cosmetic outcomes also favored the MIPPO group,with a superior SBSES score(9.2±0.4 vs.3.0±0.7,P＜0.05)and better results in scar visibility,pigmentation,thickness,and elasticity.Conclusion The smile incision combined with indirect reduction technique significantly reduces surgical trauma,accelerates postoperative recovery,and provides substantially better cosmetic outcomes compared to conventional methods,making it particularly suitable for patients with high aesthetic expectations.

Objective:To design a morning quality assurance method for pencil-beam scanning proton system to achieve integrated measurement of multiple parameters.Methods:A functionally partitioned morning check phantom was designed and manufactured, which was fixed to a specific position on the treatment bed with a 3D-printed clip, along with the two-dimensional matrix ionization chamber, for consistency checks of proton field and beam-related parameters. Additionally, a groove for an imaging phantom was reserved on one side of the clip for the functional check of the onboard imaging guidance system. The sensitivity and specificity of the aforementioned morning check method were tested, demonstrating its effectiveness. The morning check data from a rotating beam treatment room at the Hefei Ion Medical Center over a continuous period of 7 months (126 d) were analyzed. The output, field flatness, symmetry, field size and the duration of morning check were observed.Results:The results showed that the changes in the output, field flatness, and symmetry were all within 1%, the change in the field size was within 0.5 mm, and the range variations for both 155 MeV and 240 MeV energy levels were within 1 mm. The changes in the spot size for the four energy levels of 100 MeV, 130 MeV, 160 MeV, and 190 MeV were all within 2%, and the spot position deviations were within 1.5 mm. The entire morning check process could be completed within 20 min.Conclusions:The morning check method designed and manufactured in this study specifically for pencil-beam scanning proton therapy can efficiently and integrally measure various proton system parameters and can be used as an implementation method for clinical proton therapy morning check.

AIM:To investigate the visual quality and stereopsis after the implantation of PanOptix trifocal intraocular lens(TFNT00).METHODS: A prospective clinical study was conducted. A total of 36 cataract patients(50 eyes)who underwent phacoemulsification combined with TFNT00 implantation in Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from November 2022 to April 2024 were selected. They were followed up until 3 mo after the operation. The uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(UCIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity(UCNVA), objective scatter index(OSI), modulation transfer function cut off(MTF-cut-off), Strehl ratio(SR)and 100%, 20%, 9% contrast visual acuity(CVA)were observed. The binoptometer was used to collect the patients' far and near stereopsis acuities. The defocus curve was drawn after the operation; the Chinese version of the VF-14 Visual Function Index Scale was used to evaluate the visual quality and satisfaction after the operation.RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences in the UCDVA, UCIVA and UCNVA of the patients at different time after the operation(all P<0.05). The transition of the defocus curve was gentle between +0.5--3.0 D after the operation. The OSI value at 3 mo postoperatively after the operation was significantly lower than that before the operation(P<0.01), and the MTF-cut-off, SR, 100% CVA, 20% CVA and 9% CVA were significantly improved than those before operation(all P<0.01). The far and near stereopsis acuities of 34 patients were abnormal before the operation. The far stereopsis acuities of the patients who underwent bilateral eye surgeries were all normal after the operation, and the near stereopsis acuity of 12 patients was normal. Among the patients who underwent unilateral eye surgeries, the far stereopsis acuities of 13 patients were normal, and the near stereopsis acuities of 11 patients were normal. The far and near stereopsis acuities of the patients who underwent bilateral eye surgeries were significantly better than those patients who underwent unilateral eye surgeries.CONCLUSION: The PanOptix trifocal intraocular lens can provide patients with good full-range visual acuity. The stereopsis of the patients with bilateral implants is better than that of the patients with unilateral implants. The overall visual quality and satisfaction of the patients after the operation are relatively high.
