AIM: To evaluate the reliability of a digital multimedia system for measuring near-distance horizontal heterophoria.METHODS: This cross-sectional diagnostic study enrolled patients with refractive errors who visited Shantou Aier Eye Hospital from May 2023 to August 2025, presenting with symptoms of visual fatigue, undergoing myopia management, or receiving routine ophthalmic examinations, and who completed heterophoria testing during this period. All patients wearing full refractive correction underwent near-distance(0.4 m)horizontal heterophoria measurement in a random order using the digital multimedia system, the Von Graefe method, and the Maddox rod method. Two consecutive measurements were performed for each method. The intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC)was used to analyze the measurement repeatability of each method, and Bland-Altman analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were employed to evaluate the consistency between the digital multimedia system and the two traditional methods.RESULTS: A total of 60 patients(120 eyes)were included, comprising 27 males and 33 females, with a mean age of 21.03±7.24 y. Repeatability analysis showed that the ICC for the digital multimedia system was 0.960(95%CI: 0.934-0.976), for the Von Graefe method was 0.979(95%CI: 0.964-0.987), and for the Maddox rod method was 0.956(95%CI: 0.926-0.973), all indicating excellent repeatability. Bland-Altman analysis revealed a mean difference of 0.367△ [95% limits of agreement(LoA): -2.97△ to 3.70△] between the Von Graefe method and the digital system, and a mean difference of 0.067△(95% LoA: -3.05△ to 3.19△)between the Maddox rod method and the digital system. Both differences were within the clinically acceptable range(difference <4△). Spearman correlation analysis showed positive correlations between the digital system and the Von Graefe method(rs=0.867)and between the digital system and the Maddox rod method(rs=0.777, all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The digital multimedia system demonstrates high repeatability and good consistency with the traditional Von Graefe and Maddox rod methods for measuring near-distance horizontal heterophoria. It shows promise as a new and effective tool for clinical near-distance horizontal heterophoria measurement.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of puerarin and puerarin lobate extract in rats and compare the difference of pharmacokinetic behavior of them. METHODS:24 SD rats were randomly divided into high-dose and low-dose groups of puerarin (300,100 mg/kg) and puerarin lobate extract (equal to 300,100 mg/kg of puerarin). 0.2 ml blood sample were collected from posterior venous plexus of bulbus oculi before intragastric administration and 0.083,0.17,0.33,0.5, 0.67,1,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10 h after administration,respectively. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by using DAS 3.0 software. RESULTS:Compared with puerarin high-dose group,AUC0-t and cmax of puerarin low-dose group increased sig-nificantly,while CL decreased significantly;MRT0-t of puerarin low-dose group and puerarin lobate extract high-dose and low-dose groups decreased significantly (P<0.01). There was no statistical significance in pharmacokinetic parameters between puerarin lo-bate extract low-dose group and puerarin lobate extract high-dose group (P>0.05). CONCLULSIONS:There is difference in the pharmacokinetic behavior between puerarin and puerarin lobate extract in rats. Some components of puerarin lobate extrats maybe speed up the elimination of puerarin in rats,so as to shorten the average retention time of it.
