Objective:To observe the ultrasonographic features of idiopathic uveal effusion syndrome (IUES).Methods:A retrospective controlled study. From January 2012 to December 2023, 13 patients with IUES (26 eyes) diagnosed by ophthalmology examination in Department of Ophthalmonogy of Beijing Tongren Hospital (IUES group) and 22 healthy people with 30 eyes (control group) were included in the study. Both eyes of all participants were examined by color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) and ultrasonic biomicroscopy (UBM). The thickness of the ocular wall at 300 μm on the temporal side of the optic disc was measured by CDU. UBM was used to measure the thickness of the nasal and temporal scleral processes. Corneal thickness (CT), anterior chamber depth (AD), lens thickness (LT) and axial length (AL) were measured by A-mode ultrasound. There were no significant differences in age ( t=0.842), sex component ratio ( χ2=0.540), eye difference ( χ2=0.108) and AL ( t=0.831) between IUES group and control group ( P>0.05). The CDU and UBM imaging features and biometrics of IUES affected eyes were observed. Independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Results:CDU examination results showed that in 26 eyes of IUES group, choroidal detachment occurred in 20 eyes (76.9%, 20/26), which showed arc-shaped band echo connected with peripheral and equatorial eye wall echo, with uniform low echo area below, and blood flow signal could be seen on the band echo. The echo thickened and decreased in 4 eyes (15.3%, 4/26). Nine eyes (33.3%, 9/26) were accompanied by retinal detachment, which showed that the posterior pole vitreous echo was connected to the optic disc echo, and the blood flow signal was seen on the ribbon echo. UBM results showed ciliary detachment in 22 eyes (84.7%, 22/26), showing a spongy thickening of the ciliary body with interlamellar echo separation and an echoless area between the sclera. Ciliary body echo thickened and decreased in 2 eyes (7.7%, 2/26). Shallow space between ciliary body and sclera was observed in 2 eyes (7.7%, 2/26). Compared with the control group, CT ( Z=2.054), LT ( Z=1.867), scleral thickness ( Z=2.536) and ocular wall thickness ( Z=2.094) were thickened in IUES group, and AD ( Z=1.888) were decreased, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The CDU of IUES is characterized by a thickened echo of the ocular wall and a uniform low echo area under the detached choroid. UBM is characterized by a spongy thickening of the ciliary body echo with interlaminar echo separation.

Objective:To observe the color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) features of vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL).Methods:Retrospective case series. From January 2022 to December 2024, 71 eyes of 42 patients diagnosed with VRL at the Eye Center of Beijing Tongren Hospital were enrolled. Among them, 17 were male and 25 female; 29 had bilateral and 13 unilateral involvement. Age ranged 17-78 years (median 59 years). Eleven cases had histopathologic confirmation and 31 were clinically diagnosed. All patients underwent CDFI and optical coherence tomography (OCT). CDFI findings were analyzed, noting the presence or absence of vitreous opacities (centrifugal distribution), posterior vitreous detachment (PVD), retinal detachment, and retinal elevated lesions. With Doppler overlay, blood flow within retinal lesions was assessed. The χ 2 test was used to compare the detection rates of retinal lesions by CDFI and OCT, while Cohen’s Kappa assessed agreement in identifying the depth of lymphoma cell infiltration. Results:Among 71 eyes, vitreous opacity occurred in 66 eyes (93.0%, 66/71), of which 40 eyes (60.6%, 40/66) showed centrifugal opacity. 58 eyes (81.7%, 58/71) had posterior vitreous detachment. Retinal detachment occurred in 7 eyes (9.9%, 7/71). Retinal occupying lesions occurred in 23 eyes (32.4%, 23/61), of which 15 eyes (65.2%, 15/23) showed blood flow signals on the surface of the lesions but no blood flow signals inside the lesions by CDFI, and OCT showed that tumor cells gathered under the retinal pigment epithelium. CDFI showed blood flow signals inside the lesions in 8 eyes (34.8%, 8/23), and OCT showed that tumor cells gathered between retinal neuroepithelial layers. The lesion detection rate of OCT (69.6%, 16/23) was significantly lower than that of CDFI (100.0%, 23/23) ( χ 2= 6.066, P=0.014). OCT and CDFI showed perfect agreement in determining the depth of tumor cell infiltration (Kappa=1.0). Conclusions:The ultrasonographic manifestations of VRL include vitreous opacity, PVD, and some retinal occupying lesions. Vitreous opacity often presents a characteristic centrifugal distribution. By observing whether there is blood flow signal in retinopathy using Doppler, the level of lymphoma cell infiltration can be suggested.

Objective To compare the difference,agreement,and axial length measurement success rate between biometers ZW-30 and IOLMaser 700 based on swept-source optical coherence tomography for the measurement of ocular bi-ological parameters in patients with cataracts.Methods A total of 126 cataract patients(233 eyes)who were advised to undergo cataract surgery at the Department of Ophthalmology at Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from January to February 2024 were included in this study.Two biometers were used to measure the axial length(AL),mean keratometry(Km),anterior chamber depth(ACD),lens thickness(LT),central corneal thickness(CCT),and horizontal corneal diameter[namely,the white-to-white(WTW)distance].The axial measurement success rate of the two biometers and the difference and agreement between the parameters were calculated.Results The mean difference between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 was(-0.006±0.042)mm for AL,(-0.074±0.204)D for Km,(0.031±0.051)mm for ACD,(0.001±0.005)mm for CCT,and(-0.286±0.337)mm for WTW,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The mean difference between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 was(0.008±0.215)mm for LT,and the difference was not statis-tically significant(t=0.579,P=0.563).The 95％limits of agreement range was between-0.011 mm and 0.000 mm for AL,between-0.474 D and 0.326 D for Km,between-0.010 mm and 0.012 mm for CCT,between-0.068 mm and 0.131 mm for ACD,between-0.116 mm and 0.159 mm for LT,and between-0.947 mm and 0.376 mm for WTW.The intra-class correlation coefficient of all measurements ranged from 0.790 to 1.000.The AL measurement success rate of IOLMaster 700 and ZW-30 was 95.3％and 95.7％,respectively.The latter had an AL measurement success rate of 98.7％after manually marking the position of the retinal identification line.Conclusion There were statistically significant differences between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 in the measurement of the AL,Km,ACD,and CCT,which,however,were not clinically significant.The agreement between both was good.ZW-30 had a higher AL measurement success rate,espe-cially for the manual identification function of eyes with opacified refractive media,which can further improve the AL meas-urement success rate and provide reference for clinical work.

Objective:To analyze the biological parameters of the anterior segment of age-related cataracts patients with or without zonular weakness with the new generation of sweep-source anterior optical coherence tomography (OCT) device CASIA2 to provide a basis for the diagnosis of zonular weakness.Methods:A case-control study was conducted.A total of 158 cases (186 eyes) of patients with age-related cataracts having zonular weakness as a zonular weakness group, and 80 cases (80 eyes) of cataract with age-related cataracts without zonular weakness as a normal zonule group were enroll from June 2022 to June 2023 at Beijing Tongren Hospital.All patients underwent routine preoperative ophthalmological examination including slit lamp microsopy, IOLMaster 700, ocular B-ultrasound and OCT.The anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), lens thickness (LT), lens vault (LV), anterior chamber angle opening distance at 750 μm (AOD750), lens decentration and tilt, radius of curvature of the anterior lens surface (RAL), and radius of curvature of the posterior lens surface (RPL) of patients were measured with CASIA2 and compared between the two groups.The relationship between zonular weakness and anterior chamber parameters and lens parameters was evaluated by logistic regression analysis.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing Tongren Hospital (No.TRECKY2018-049), and all enrolled patients signed the informed consent form.Results:In the zonular weakness group, ACD, ACV, RAL, and AOD750 were (2.34±0.56)mm, (85.05±40.19)mm 3, 7.52 (7.13, 8.08)mm, and 0.27 (0.07, 0.30)mm, respectively, which were smaller than (3.13±0.38)mm, (127.75±38.15)mm 3, 9.28(8.51, 9.76)mm, and 0.52 (0.31, 0.65)mm in the normal zonule group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05).LT and LV in the zonular weakness group were (5.14±0.45)mm and (1.22±0.53)mm, respectively, which were larger than (4.27±0.52)mm and (0.32±0.30)mm in the normal zonule group, and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0.05).Magnitude of lens decentration and tilt in the zonular weakness were 0.34 (0.13, 0.45)mm and 6.44 (3.67, 7.32)°, respectively, which were significantly larger than 0.19 (0.12, 0.25)mm and 4.88 (3.85, 5.65)° in the normal zonule group (both P<0.05).No obvious pattern was found in the direction of decentration and tilt.Logistic regression analysis showed that LV and lens decentration were risk factors of zonular weakness (odds ratios [ OR]=706.170, 335.339; both P<0.05), and RAL was a protective factor of zonular weakness ( OR=0.239, P<0.05). Conclusions:Age-related cataract patients with zonular weakness often present with a decrease in ACV due to increased anterior convexity of the lens.Decreased RAL, increased lens decentration and elevated LV are risk factors for zonular weakness.

Objective:To observe the ultrasonographic features of idiopathic uveal effusion syndrome (IUES).Methods:A retrospective controlled study. From January 2012 to December 2023, 13 patients with IUES (26 eyes) diagnosed by ophthalmology examination in Department of Ophthalmonogy of Beijing Tongren Hospital (IUES group) and 22 healthy people with 30 eyes (control group) were included in the study. Both eyes of all participants were examined by color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) and ultrasonic biomicroscopy (UBM). The thickness of the ocular wall at 300 μm on the temporal side of the optic disc was measured by CDU. UBM was used to measure the thickness of the nasal and temporal scleral processes. Corneal thickness (CT), anterior chamber depth (AD), lens thickness (LT) and axial length (AL) were measured by A-mode ultrasound. There were no significant differences in age ( t=0.842), sex component ratio ( χ2=0.540), eye difference ( χ2=0.108) and AL ( t=0.831) between IUES group and control group ( P>0.05). The CDU and UBM imaging features and biometrics of IUES affected eyes were observed. Independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Results:CDU examination results showed that in 26 eyes of IUES group, choroidal detachment occurred in 20 eyes (76.9%, 20/26), which showed arc-shaped band echo connected with peripheral and equatorial eye wall echo, with uniform low echo area below, and blood flow signal could be seen on the band echo. The echo thickened and decreased in 4 eyes (15.3%, 4/26). Nine eyes (33.3%, 9/26) were accompanied by retinal detachment, which showed that the posterior pole vitreous echo was connected to the optic disc echo, and the blood flow signal was seen on the ribbon echo. UBM results showed ciliary detachment in 22 eyes (84.7%, 22/26), showing a spongy thickening of the ciliary body with interlamellar echo separation and an echoless area between the sclera. Ciliary body echo thickened and decreased in 2 eyes (7.7%, 2/26). Shallow space between ciliary body and sclera was observed in 2 eyes (7.7%, 2/26). Compared with the control group, CT ( Z=2.054), LT ( Z=1.867), scleral thickness ( Z=2.536) and ocular wall thickness ( Z=2.094) were thickened in IUES group, and AD ( Z=1.888) were decreased, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The CDU of IUES is characterized by a thickened echo of the ocular wall and a uniform low echo area under the detached choroid. UBM is characterized by a spongy thickening of the ciliary body echo with interlaminar echo separation.

Objective:To investigate the application value of virtual reality laparoscopic simulator training in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty (TAPP).Methods:The prospective cohort study was conducted. Twenty young physicians from The First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University with ≥3 years of clinical experience in general surgery and no foundation in laparoscopy were selected for training during July to August 2023. Physicians were divided into two groups based on random number table method. Physicians undergoing virtual reality laparoscopic simulator training were divided into the virtual reality group, and physicians undergoing regular laparoscopic simulator training were divided into the regular group. Two groups of physicians were trained using laparoscopic simulator for 10 days (2 hours for each skill, with a total of 6 hours per day for 3 skills), and the training covered basic laparoscopic surgical skills such as clamping, cutting and suturing and knotting. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups were conducted using the independent sample t test and the paired ttest was used for intra group comparison. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups were conducted using the chi-square test. Results:(1) Physicians situation before training. A total of 20 physicians were selected for eligibility. There were 13 males and 7 females, aged 31(range, 30?34)years. There are 7 males and 3 females in the virtual reality group, with age of (31.5±1.4)years and the TAPP simulation surgery time of (42±4)minutes before training. There are 6 male and 4 female students in the regular group, with age of (31.2±1.0)years and the TAPP simulation surgery time of (42±4)minutes before training. There was no significant difference in gender, age, TAPP simulation surgery time between the two groups of physicians ( P>0.05), confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Basic skills of physicians before and after training. For physicians in the virtual reality group, the clamping score was 5.1±1.0, the cutting score was 4.9±1.0, the suturing and knotting score was 4.7±1.5 before training. The clamping score was 8.0±1.3, the cutting score was 7.9±1.5, the suturing and knotting score was 6.6±1.3 after training. There were significant differences in the above indicators before and after training ( t=?5.75, ?5.21, ?3.07, P<0.05). For physicians in the regular group, the clamping score was 5.3±1.0, the cutting score was 5.0±1.2, the suturing and knotting score was 4.3±1.5 before training. The clamping score was 7.1±1.2, the cutting score was 6.7±1.3, the suturing and knotting score was 5.7±1.1 after training. There were significant differences in the above indicators before and after training ( t=?3.73, ?3.16, ?2.42, P<0.05). (3) Completion of simulated surgical situations before and after training. The time of completing TAPP simulation surgery for virtual reality group after training was (29±3)minutes, versus (42±4)minutes before training, showing a significant difference before and after training ( t=7.69, P<0.05). The time of completing TAPP simulation surgery for regular group after training was (36±4)minutes, versus (42±4)minutes before training, showing a significant difference before and after training ( t=3.75, P<0.05). The time of completing TAPP simulation surgery of virtual reality group after training was shorter than that of regular group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=?3.89, P<0.05). Conclusion:Both of virtual reality and regular laparoscopic simulator can enhance the basic laparoscopic surgical skills and the proficiency of TAPP simulation surgery of physicians, and the training effect of virtual reality laparoscopic simulators is better.

Malignant bowel obstruction(MBO) is a common complication of advanced ventral-pelvic tumors, with poor overall prognosis and seriously affecting the quality of life of these patients. Numerous factors are involved in the pathogenesis of MBO and there is no standard treatment. Most MBO patients were not suitable for surgery. The use of chemotherapy and total parenteral nutrition(TPN) is also controversial. The best treatment is still supportive treatment, including drug treatment and gastrointestinal decompression. Here we reported a case diagnosed as MBO. Transnasal ileus cathete was inserted immediately when hospitalizated after diagnosed 5 days. The symptom was partial relieved after conservative treatment. The abdomen CT scan suggested the sign of closed-loop obstruction. Then, an exploratory laparotomy was performed and found proximal small intestine obviously decompressed with transnasal ileus catheter. However, the tumor caused the closed-loop obstruction of terminal ileum and colon, then the transverse colostomy and terminal ileostomy were performed. After treatment, the patient recovered and was discharged from the hospital. In conclusion, the use of transnasal ileus catheter combined with surgery in MBO, could improve the accuracy of condition judgment, increase the feasibility and safety of surgery, and achieved the goals of treatment expected, and might be a potential treatment regimen for MBO.
