Objective To investigate the correlation between serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)level and the development and severity of diabetes mellitus cystoid macular edema(CME).Methods A total of 57 patients(57 eyes)with diabetic CME(the case group)and diabetes without eye complications(the control group)admitted to the Vitreoretinal Surgery Department of Tangshan Eye Hospital from June 2023 to June 2024 were prospectively selected,and all of them underwent systematic ophthalmic specialty examination and serum VEGF detection.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors of diabetes mellitus CME.The diagnostic value of VEGF in patients with diabetes CME was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Spearman correlation was used to analyze the relationship between VEGF levels and the severity of CME in patients with diabetes,such as corrected visual,number of cystoid edema and non-round index of macular foveal avascular zone(FAZ).Results Compared with the control group,the course of diabetes in the case group was longer,the incidence of hypertension was higher,levels of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),serum creatinine and serum VEGF were higher,and the estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)was lower(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that long duration of diabetes,increased levels of HbA1c and VEGF were risk factors for CME in diabetes mellitus patients,while elevated eGFR was protective factor(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of VEGF in diagnosing diabetes mellitus CME was 0.758(95%CI:0.669-0.834).The AUC of the combined application of diabetes duration,HbA1c,eGFR and VEGF in the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus CME was 0.916(95%CI:0.877-0.941),which was significantly higher than that of the application of VEGF alone(P<0.05).The VEGF level was negatively correlated with the corrected visual acuity[0.34(0.24,0.44)]in patients with diabetic CME,and positively correlated with the detection of cystoid macular edema[3(2,5)]and FAZ non-roundness index[1.16(1.08,1.20)](rs were 0.771,0.700,respectively,P<0.05).Conclusion Serum VEGF levels are closely related to the onset and severity of CME,and which can be used as a reliable reference index for the diagnosis of CME.

Objective To explore the application value of automatic cytomorphological analyzer in the morphological analysis of white blood cells(WBC)in peripheral blood.Methods A total of 306 venous blood samples from inpatients and outpatients were randomly selected and prepared with automatic cytomorphological analyzer for WBC pre-classification.The differences between automatic cytomorphological analyzer counting,automatic blood cell analyzer counting and manual counting were compared,and the correlation between automatic cytomorphological analyzer and manual counting method was analyzed.Results Compared with the other two methods,the automatic cytomorphologi-cal analyzer was able to detect more types of WBC,especially abnormal cells.There were no signifi-cant differences between automatic cytomorphological analyzer and manual counting method for 6 ma-ture WBC types(band neutrophils,segmented neutrophils,lymphocytes,monocytes,eosinophils,and basophils),immature cells at different stages and atypical lymphocyte counts(P>0.05).Re-sults of the 6 mature WBC types counted by the automatic cytomorphological analyzer and manual counting had favorable correlations(r>0.8).Conclusion The automatic cytomorphological analyzer can classify more types of WBC,provide WBC counting results that are highly consistent with manual microscopy,and the counting results of the two methods have a good correlation.
