AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of 3% diquafosol sodium ophthalmic solution in treating dry eye syndrome following cataract surgery and its impact on tear film stability.METHODS: This prospective clinical study was conducted at Xi'an Aier Eye Hospital, Northwest University from January 2021 to January 2024. A total of 124 patients(124 eyes)who underwent cataract phacoemulsification were enrolled and randomly assigned to either the study group(62 cases, 62 eyes)or the control group(62 cases, 62 eyes)using a random number table. The study group received 3% diquafosol sodium ophthalmic solution four times daily for 1 mo, while the control group was treated with sodium hyaluronate eye drops four times daily for 1 mo. Clinical efficacy, tear film breakup time(BUT), Schirmer I test(SⅠt), corneal fluorescein staining(FL)score, inflammatory factors [interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin-6(IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)] levels in tears, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: After treatment, the effective rate was 93.5% in the study group and 87.1% in the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). The study group showed significantly higher BUT, SⅠt values compared to the control group, while FL score, and inflammatory factor levels in tears were significantly lower at 1 mo after treatment(all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions did not differ significantly between the two groups(P=0.198).CONCLUSION: The 3% diquafosol sodium ophthalmic solution significantly improves tear secretion and tear film stability in patients with dry eye syndrome after cataract surgery, effectively alleviating dry eye symptoms. It is a safe and effective treatment method.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for neurological function recovery in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI)and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 156 patients with ACI(ACI group)and 266 patients with T2DM combined with ACI(T2DM+ACI group)hospitalized in our hospital were enrolled in this study from December 2016 to February 2020.The recovery degree in two weeks was evaluated according to the modified Rankin scale(m-RS)score in T2DM combined with ACI.The T2DM+ACI group was further divided into a good subgroup with a score of<1(n=50)and a poor subgroup with a score of≥1(n=216).Clinical characteristics were compared between the two groups.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between m-RS score and other indicators.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors for m-RS score.Results The levels of FPG,HbA1c and TG were higher in T2DM+ACI group than in ACI group(P<0.05).The poor subgroup had significantly higher age and LP(a)than the good subgroup(P<0.05),and significantly lower LDL-C,TG,and serum uric acid than the good subgroup(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that m-RS score was positively correlated with age,sex and LP(a)(r=0.227,0.170,0.157;P=0.000,0.005,0.011).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age and LP(a)were the influencing factors for m-RS score.Conclusions LP(a)a is a influencing factor for neurological function recovery in patients with T2DM combined with ACI,and clinical attention should be paid to the level of LP(a)a in such patients.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.
