AIM:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of knowledge-attitude-practice in myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents in Ningbo City, thereby providing a scientific basis for formulating targeted prevention strategies.METHODS: Children and adolescents aged 6-12 years old were selected from the medical-school collaborative myopia prevention network in Ningbo City between August 2024 and May 2025 using stratified cluster sampling. Information on myopia prevention knowledge(15 items)and practice(9 items)was collected through questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were used to analyze factors influencing myopia occurrence in children and adolescents.RESULTS: A total of 664 children and adolescents aged 6-12 years were enrolled in this study. Participants were divided by age into three groups: 6-7 years old(n=221), 8-9 years old(n=221), and 10-12 years old(n=222). Of the 664 questionnaires distributed, 637 valid questionnaires were returned(201 from the 6-7 age group, 235 from the 8-9 age group, and 201 from the 10-12 age group), yielding an effective response rate of 95.9%. Based on myopia screening results, the non-myopic group comprised 203 participants(31.9%), including 100 males and 103 females, with a mean age of 8.82±1.98 years old. The myopic group comprised 434 participants(68.1%), including 213 males and 221 females, with a mean age of 9.10±1.95 years old. The myopia prevalence rates in the 6-7, 8-9, and 10-12 age groups were 37.8%(76/201), 71.9%(169/235), and 94.0%(189/201), respectively(P<0.001). Regarding the knowledge and practice of myopia prevention, the overall awareness rate in the non-myopic group(59.7%±9.7%)was significantly higher than that in the myopic group(48.7%±8.5%; P<0.001). Additionally, the non-myopic group scored higher on the key practice of “regular eye examinations”(4.27±0.96)compared to the myopic group(4.10±1.05; P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that age was the primary risk factor for myopia occurrence.CONCLUSION: Age is the dominant factor in the onset of myopia, and there is a phenomenon of “knowledge-practice gap”; the traditional health education model has limitations, and a precise prevention and control system based on developmental patterns should be established.

Gorham-Stout disease(GSD) is a rare osteolytic disorder characterized by spontaneous and progressive osteolysis, along with abnormal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, with no new bone formation. We present a case of a 15-year-old female admitted due to " recurrent right leg pain for 5 years, 11 months after undergoing right femoral fracture surgery". Through comprehensive integration of the patient's clinical phenotype, laboratory tests, imaging findings, pathological examinations, and molecular biological test results, GSD was considered highly likely. A multidisciplinary treatment approach was conducted, including a combination of zoledronic acid and sirolimus to inhibit osteolysis, along with rehabilitation training and orthopedic intervention, providing a personalized and comprehensive treatment strategy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of Xielitang on dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）-induced ulcerative colitis （UC） mice and its possible mechanism. MethodsDSS was used to establish UC model. Sixty mice were randomly divided into a normal group， a model group， a sulfasalazine group （0.6 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose Xielitang groups （1.67， 3.34， 6.68 g·kg^-1）. After treatment for 42 d， the colon length was recorded， and the disease activity index （DAI） score was calculated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the pathomorphological changes of colon. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of farnesoid X receptor （FXR）， small heterodimer partner （SHP）， liver receptor homolog-1 （LRH-1）， cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase （CYP7A1）， and fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 （FGFR4） in liver and FXR， sodium-dependent bile acid transporter （ASBT）， and fibroblast growth factor 15 （FGF15） in ileum. 16S rRNA sequencing was used to analyze the intestinal flora. Moreover， ultra-high performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry was used to detect the bile acid content. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed significantly decreased colon length， IL-10 content， α-diversity index， abundance of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus， and content of deoxycholic acid （DCA） and lithocholic acid （LCA） （P<0.01）， significantly increased DAI score， IL-6 and TNF-α content， abundance of Bacteroidetes， and the content of cholic acid （CA）， chenodeoxycholic acid （CDCA）， and taurocholic acid （TCA） （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly down-regulated protein expression of FXR， SHP， and FGFR4 in liver and FXR， ASBT， and FGF15 in ileum （P<0.01）， and significantly up-regulated protein expression of LRH-1 and CYP7A1 in liver （P<0.01）. In addition， the structure of colonic mucosa was destroyed， and inflammatory cells infiltrated in the model group. Compared with the model group， Xielitang could significantly increase the colon length， IL-10 content， α-diversity index， the abundance of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus， and DCA and LCA content （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decrease DAI score， abundance of Bacteroidetes， and the content of IL-6， TNF-α， CA， CDCA， and TCA （P<0.01）， up-regulate the protein expression of FXR， SHP， and FGFR4 in liver and FXR， ASBT， and FGF15 in ileum （P<0.01）， and down-regulate the protein expression of LRH-1 and CYP7A1 in liver （P<0.01）. The pathological damage of colonic mucosa was obviously alleviated. ConclusionXielitang protects against UC probably by regulating the "intestinal microbiota-bile acid" axis， regulating intestinal flora imbalance， and maintaining bile acid homeostasis.

OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical characteristics of patients with traumatic spinopelvic dissociation (SPD) and explore the diagnostic and therapeutic methods. METHODS: A clinical data of 22 patients with SPD who underwent surgical treatment between March 2019 and August 2024 was retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 males and 9 females, with an average age of 35.5 years (range, 14-61 years). The causes of injury included falling from height in 16 cases, traffic accidents in 5 cases, and compression injury in 1 case. Sacral fractures were classified based on morphology into "U" type (9 cases), "H" type (7 cases), "T" type (4 cases), and "λ" type (2 cases). According to the Roy-Camille classification, there were 4 cases of type Ⅰ, 12 cases of type Ⅱ, 2 cases of type Ⅲ, and 4 cases of type Ⅳ. The Cobb angle was (35.7± 22.0)°. Sixteen patients were accompanied by lumbosacral trunk and cauda equina nerve injury, which was classified as grade Ⅱ in 5 cases, grade Ⅲ in 5 cases, and grade Ⅳ in 6 cases according to the Gibbons grading. The time from injury to operation was 2-17 days (mean, 5.7 days). Based on the type of sacral fracture and sacral nerve injury, 6 cases were treated with closed reduction and minimally invasive percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation, 16 cases were treated with open reduction and lumbar iliac fixation (8 cases)/triangular fixation (8 cases). Among them, 11 patients with severe fracture displacement and kyphotic deformity leading to sacral canal stenosis or bony impingement within the sacral foramen underwent laminectomy and sacral nerve decompression. X-ray films and CT were reviewed during followed-up. The Matta score was used to evaluate the quality of fracture reduction. At last follow-up, the Majeed score was used to assess the functional recovery, and the Gibbons grading was used to evaluate the nerve function. RESULTS: All operations were successfully completed. All patients were followed up 8-64 months (mean, 20.4 months). Two patients developed deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs, 2 had incision infections, and 1 developed a sacral pressure ulcer; no other complications occurred. Radiological examination showed that the Cobb angle was (12.0±6.8)°, which was significantly different from the preoperative one ( t=6.000, P<0.001). The Cobb angle in 16 patients who underwent open reduction was (14.9±5.5)°, which was significantly different from the preoperative one [(46.8±13.9)° ] ( t=8.684, P<0.001). According to the Matta scoring criteria, the quality of fracture reduction was rated as excellent in 8 cases, good in 7 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 2 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 68.2%. Bone callus formation was observed at the fracture site in all patients at 12 weeks after operation, and bony union achieved in all cases at last follow-up, with a healing time ranging from 12 to 36 weeks (mean, 17.6 weeks). At last follow-up, the Majeed score was rated as excellent in 7 cases, good in 10 cases, fair in 4 cases, and poor in 1 case, with an excellent and good rate of 77.3%. One patient experienced a unilateral iliac screw breakage at 12 months after operation, but the fracture had already healed, and there was no loss of reduction. Among the 16 patients with preoperative sacral nerve injury, 11 cases showed improvement in nerve function (6 cases) or recovery (5 cases). CONCLUSION SPD with low incidence, multiple associated injuries, and high incidence of sacral nerve injury, requires timely decompression of the sacral canal for symptomatic sacral nerve compression, fractures reduction, deformities correction, and stable fixation.

Objective:To analyze the changing trends and international differences in the incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) in China from 1990 to 2021 based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database.Methods:The data were derived from the GBD database, covering the incidence and DALY data of HDP in countries or regions around the world. Descriptive statistics were used to compare the differences in disease burden between China and different regions of Europe, America and other developed countries, and to analyze the disease burden characteristics of women of childbearing age in different age groups (every 5 years). The Joinpoint regression model was used to identify trend change points. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze the independent effects of age, period and birth cohort.Results:(1) From 1990 to 2021, the incidence of HDP in China showed an overall downward trend, from 387.18/100 000 in 1990 to 216.35/100 000 in 2021. Compared with the global incidence rate (1990: 1 167.28/100 000; 2021: 923.48/100 000), the incidence rate of HDP in China was relatively low, but it was still higher than that in some developed countries. (2) The analysis of the Joinpoint regression model showed that the incidence rate of HDP in different age groups first decreased, then increased, and finally leveled off. The connection point with the lowest point was in 2005. DALY showed a continuous downward trend in all age groups. Among them, the decline in maternal DALY of pregnant women in all age groups from 15 to 39 years old was more obvious. (3) The age-period-cohort effect model showed that the incidence rate and DALY of HDP in women of childbearing age aged 20 to 24 years reached their peak.Conclusions:The burden of HDP in China continues to decrease, and the disease prevention and control has achieved remarkable results, but the incidence rate is still higher than that in some developed countries. It is suggested that personalized interventions should be developed for different risk groups to further reduce the burden of disease.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the Masquelet technique (induced membrane technique) combined with an antibiotic-impregnated bone cement-coated plate for the treatment of infected nonunion following internal fixation of clavicle fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 patients with clavicular infected nonunion who underwent staged treatment using the Masquelet technique combined with an antibiotic-loaded bone cement-coated plate between May 2021 and May 2023 in the Second Ward of Traumatic Orthopedics at Gansu Provincial People's Hospital. The cohort included 8 males and 4 females, with a mean age of 28.8±3.1 years (range: 12-48 years). Among them, 10 cases had mid-third clavicular defects, and 2 cases had lateral third defects. All 12 cases involved nonunion due to bone infection following internal fixation of clavicle fractures, with 6 cases initially fixed with Kirschner wires and 6 with plates. The induced membrane technique was applied in two stages. Stage One: Radical debridement was performed, including removal of the original internal fixation and infected necrotic tissue. A plate was implanted, and the bone defect area was filled with antibiotic-loaded bone cement, fully encapsulating the plate. Stage Two: Bone graft reconstruction was carried out 6-8 weeks later, after infection control was confirmed. The induced membrane was incised, the bone cement was removed, and a bone graft was placed within the membrane. Outcomes included infection control, bone union time, pain visual analogue scale (VAS), and Constant-Murley shoulder score (CMS) at the final follow-up.Results:The interval between the first and second surgeries was 7.42±1.17 weeks (range: 6-10 weeks). All 12 patients were followed up for a mean duration of 16.4±3.9 months (range: 12-24 months). One patient experienced recurrent infection after the first-stage surgery, which was controlled after repeat debridement and replacement of antibiotic-loaded bone cement, with no recurrence during follow-up. All 12 patients achieved bony union, with a mean healing time of 3.42±0.67 months (range: 3-5 months). Radiographs showed continuous bone cortex with no visible fracture lines. At the final follow-up, the mean VAS score was 0.42±0.51, significantly lower than the preoperative score of 6.68±1.12 ( t=18.711, P<0.001). The mean CMS score was 88.93±3.94, significantly higher than the preoperative score of 44.41±7.15 ( t=20.786, P<0.001). Conclusion:The Masquelet technique combined with an antibiotic-loaded bone cement-coated plate is effective in treating infected nonunion after internal fixation of clavicle fractures, significantly improving acromioclavicular joint function.

Objective To investigate the adverse pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with increased nuchal translucency(NT).Methods A total of 376 pregnant women at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2023 to January 2024 were selected as research subjects,who had a diagnosis of fetal NT ≥ the 95th percentile and complete pregnancy outcomes for singleton pregnancies.The fetuses were divided into simple thickening group(n=320)and thickening with structural abnormalities group(n=56)based on NT ultrasound results.The interventional prenatal diagnosis outcomes and pregnancy outcomes of two groups were compared.Results The rate of chromosomal abnormalities and the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes were higher in thickening with structural abnormalities group compared to simple thickening group with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The overall incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in NT thickened fetuses was 31.65％,but after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations,the good pregnancy outcome rate in NT thickened fetuses was 98.09％.Conclusion NT thickening is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in fetuses,and the risk of poor fetal outcome is further increased when NT thickening combined with structural abnormalities in early pregnancy,but the pregnancy outcome is better in fetuses with NT thickening after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations.

Objective:To investigate the trajectory of frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)following SARS-CoV-2 infection and its associated risk factors.Methods:This prospective cohort study focused on elderly patients who underwent baseline frailty assessment(T0)during hemodialysis treatment at Beijing Friendship Hospital for over 3 months between December 1st, 2022, and December 31th, 2022, and were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection.The Fried Frailty Phenotype was evaluated at 1 month(T1), 3 months(T2), and 6 months(T3)post-infection.Frailty trajectory after infection was analyzed using repeated measurement ANOVA.Patients were divided into stable/improvement or exacerbation groups based on their frailty status at T0 and T3, with logistic regression analysis employed to identify risk factors for different frailty trajectories.Results:A total of 130 elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients, with a median age of 66 years(range: 63-71 years)and 62 males(47.7%), were included in the study.Six months after the infection, a majority of surviving patients saw their frailty scores return to baseline levels.Specifically, 72 patients(55.4%)either maintained or improved to robust or pre-frail states, while 9 patients(6.9%)progressed to a pre-frail state, 18 patients(13.8%)progressed to a frail state, and 31 patients(23.8%)remained in a frail state.Results from multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that low grip strength( OR: 6.30, 95% CI: 1.48-26.73)and all-cause hospitalization( OR: 5.01, 95% CI: 1.19-21.03)were identified as risk factors for non-frail patients transitioning to frailty( P<0.05). Conclusions:The majority of elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients who survived SARS-CoV-2 infection returned to their baseline level of frailty or showed improvement within 6 months.Non-frail patients with low grip strength or those who were hospitalized were more likely to deteriorate towards frailty.
