Objective To investigate the early postoperative efficacy between Kahook dual blade(KDB)internal tra-beculectomy and internal gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy(GATT)in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma(POAG).Methods A total of 120 patients(120 eyes)with POAG were included and divided according to dif-ferent surgical treatment methods.Among them,62 patients(62 eyes)undergoing internal trabeculectomy by KDB were di-vided into Group A,and 58 patients(58 eyes)undergoing GATT were divided into Group B.Relevant data of patients in the two groups were collected,and the efficacy of the two surgical methods was compared.Results The intraocular pres-sure in both groups decreased 1 day,1 week,and 1 month after surgery compared with preoperative levels(all P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the intraocular pressure measured at the above time points between the two groups(all P＞0.05).The type of drugs for reducing the intraocular pressure in both groups decreased significantly 1 day,1 week,and 1 month after surgery compared with preoperative levels(all P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the type of drugs for reducing the intraocular pressure at the above time points between the two groups(all P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of complications between Group A(45.16％)and Group B(39.66％)(P＞0.05).Specifically,the main complications in Group A included anterior chamber hemorrhage and intraocular pressure rebound,while those in Group B included anterior chamber hemorrhage and ciliary detachment.Conclusion Both KDB internal trabeculectomy and GATT can effectively reduce the intraocular pressure in patients with POAG and reduce the use of postoperative intraocular pressure-lowering drugs.There was no significant difference in surgical complications between the two surgical methods.The selection of surgical procedures in clinical prac-tice can be determined based on patients' wishes and actual situation.

Aim To investigate the intervention effect of Rehmannia radix water extract on bleomycin(BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice combined with metabolomics and to reveal the potential mechanism,in order to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of pul-monary fibrosis.Methods Male C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into the control group,model group,pirfenidone group(positive control,PFD,270 mg·kg-1),and low dose(DH-L,4.55 g·kg-1)group,medium dose(DH-M,9.1 g·kg-1)group and high dose(DH-H,18.2 g·kg-1)group of Rehman-nia.Except for the control group,BLM(5 mg·kg-1)was instilled into the trachea to establish the model of pulmonary fibrosis in the other groups.The survival rate,lung index and blood oxygen saturation of mice in each group were evaluated.HE and Masson staining were used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissue.WBP was used to detect lung function.Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of primary lung cells,ROS and immune cells.ELISA was used to detect the levels of fibrosis markers and inflammatory factors(α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,collagen Ⅲ,TGF-β1,TNF-α,IL-1 β,and IL-6).Biochemical method was employed to detect the contents of GSH-Px,T-SOD and MDA.Liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer(LC-MS)metabolomics was used to analyze the changes of serum metabolic profile.Results Water extract of Re-hmannia significantly increased the survival rate,oxy-gen saturation and lung function of mice with pulmona-ry fibrosis,reduced the lung coefficient,ameliorated pathological damage and collagen deposition in lung tissue,reduced the levels of apoptosis and oxidative stress,and down-regulated the levels of inflammatory factors in lung tissue.It regulated the levels of metabo-lites such as bile acid metabolism,sphingolipid metabo-lism,and unsaturated fatty acid metabolism.Conclu-sions Water extract of Rehmannia inhibits lung injury and collagen deposition in mice with pulmonary fibrosis by inhibiting inflammatory response,which may be a-chieved by regulating the levels of inflammatory factors through the metabolic pathways of bile acid and sphin-golipid.

Objective:To observe the early efficacy of intense pulsed light(IPL)combined with non-ablative fractional laser(NAFL)in preventing postoperative pathological scar formation and intervention of inflammatory factors.Methods:93 patients with postoperative pathological scar formation who were admitted to our hospital from March 2022 to September 2024 were selected,they were divided into control group A(silicone gel treatment,n=31),control group B(NAFL on the basis of control group A,n=31)and study group(IPL on the basis of control group B,n=31)using the random number table method.The clinical efficacy,simple quality of life scale(SF-36),vancouver scar scale(VSS),inflammatory factors[interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),C-reactive protein(CRP)],and adverse reactions among three groups were compared.Results:The clinical total effective rate in the study group were higher than those in the control group A and control group B(P＜0.05).SF-36 increased sequentially and VSS decreased sequentially in control group A,control group B,and study group after treatment(P＜0.05).CRP,IL-6,and TNF-α decreased sequentially in control group A,control group B,and study group after treatment(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:IPL combined with NAFL in preventing postoperative pathological scar formation,can effectively reduce scar formation,reduce inflammatory factors levels,improve patients' quality of life,and be safe and reliable.

Objective To identify the taste critical quality attribute and design and optimize the flavor-correcting formulation of the traditional Chinese medicine oral preparation Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid,in order to improve its taste and enhance patient medication adherence.Methods The taste assignment method was employed to identify the taste critical quality attribute of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid.Based on human sensory evaluation and the standardized Euclidean distance in electronic tongue analysis,suitable types of corrigent were determined.Subsequently,under constraints such as maximum allowable dosage,solubility,and sweetness,the optimal taste formulation for the sugar-free intermediate of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid was determined using Box-Behnken experimental design combined with electronic tongue and human sensory evaluation results.The study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine(Ethics Approval Number 2020BZYLL0609).Results The quantitative score for bitter taste of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid accounted for 30.36%,confirming bitterness as the taste critical quality attribute requiring attention.The optimal taste formulation for the sugar-free intermediate of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid was determined to be 120 mg·mL?1 erythritol,12 mg·mL?1 acesulfame potassium,and 2.4 mg·mL?1 stevioside.This formulation achieved an 11.75-point improvement in sensory evaluation scores compared to the original commercially available oral liquid.Conclusion This study successfully improved the taste of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid and established a comprehensive strategy for flavor-correcting formulation optimization,including a method for identifying taste critical quality attribute.This strategy provides a referential paradigm for palatability enhancement of similar traditional Chinese medicine oral preparations,laying a crucial technical foundation for elevating the clinical value of Chinese herbal medicines and promoting the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).

Objective To investigate the predictive value of pre-transfer serum fibroblast growth factor 21(FGF-21),anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH),and neuropilin-1(NRP-1)for early pregnancy loss at 6 weeks following in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer(IVF-ET),and to establish an early predictive model based on serum biochemical markers.Methods This prospective study consecutively enrolled 322 women who achieved clinical pregnancy after IVF-ET at our center between September 2022 and September 2024.Participants were randomly divided into a modeling cohort(n=225)and a validation cohort(n=97)at a 7:3 ratio.According to ultrasound findings at 6 weeks of gestation,patients in the modeling cohort were classified into an early pregnancy loss group(n=59)and an ongoing pregnancy group(n=166).Baseline clinical characteristics and pre-transfer serum levels of FGF-21,AMH,and NRP-1 were collected.Multivariate logistic regression was applied to identify inde-pendent risk factors for early pregnancy loss and to construct a predictive model.Model discrimination,calibra-tion,and stability were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test,and bootstrap resampling in both cohorts.Results Univariate analysis revealed that the FSH/LH ratio,antral follicle count,and number of retrieved oocytes were significantly associated with early pregnancy loss(P<0.001).Compared with the ongoing pregnancy group,women with early loss showed significantly elevated pre-transfer serum FGF-21 levels,whereas AMH and NRP-1 levels were markedly reduced(P<0.001).Multivariate logistic regression demonstrated that an FSH/LH ratio<1.8(OR=1.629,P=0.002)and higher FGF-21 levels(OR=1.338,P=0.002)were independent risk factors,while higher AMH(OR=0.741,P=0.010)and NRP-1 levels(OR=0.874,P=0.007)were protective.Stratified analysis indicated that among patients with FSH/LH≥1.8,FGF-21 levels were significantly higher and AMH and NRP-1 levels significantly lower(all P<0.001).Interaction analysis further suggested that the FSH/LH ratio significantly modified the associations between these biomarkers and pregnancy loss risk(P for interaction<0.05).Specifically,in the higher FSH/LH subgroup,the risk effect of FGF-21 was amplified,while the protective effects of AMH and NRP-1 were more pronounced.The combined predictive model achieved C-indices of 0.869(95%CI:0.826～0.926)in the modeling cohort and 0.835(95%CI:0.811～0.907)in the validation cohort.Its AUC for predicting early pregnancy loss was 0.934 in the modeling co-hort and 0.909 in the validation cohort,both significantly outperforming individual markers(AUCs:FGF-21=0.867,AMH=0.881,NRP-1=0.853;Z=2.024,1.831;P<0.001).Decision curve analysis showed that the model provided consistent net clinical benefit across threshold probabilities of 0.1～0.4,underscoring its clinical utility.Conclusions Elevated pre-transfer serum FGF-21 and reduced AMH and NRP-1 levels are strongly associ-ated with early pregnancy loss at 6 weeks after IVF-ET.The predictive model developed in this study demonstrates robust accuracy and stability,offering substantial clinical application value for early risk stratification.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective To propose a image processing strategy based on salient object detection algorithm for optimizing the presentation of prosthetic visual information at a limited resolution level,aiming to detect and enhance the salient objects in the scene and remove the background information.Methods A salient object detection model combining CNN and Transformer was used to extract salient objects.On this basis,methods such as object magnification,contour enhancement and contrast enhancement were utilized to optimize the image information.Psychophysical experiments were carried out at 5 resolution levels(16×16,24×24,32×32,48×48 and 64×64).Results In the simulated prosthetic vision,this image processing strategy had a remarkable effect on improving the object recognition ability of the subjects.Regardless of the resolutions of 16×16,24×24,32×32,48×48 and 64×64,the proposed strategy achieved the highest recognition accuracies,specifically 34%±6%,56%±9%,72%±9%,89%±4%and 96%±2%.Conclusion Using the salient object detection method and image processing strategy to extract and enhance salient objects can help prosthesis implant recipients effectively improve their object recognition ability.
