Objective:To analyze the clinical manifestations and fundus multimodal imaging features of patients with acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome, and provide a reference for early diagnosis of VKH syndrome.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data and related examinations including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) of patients diagnosed with acute VKH syndrome in the Ophthalmology Department of the Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022.Results:A total of 17 patients (34 eyes) with acute VKH syndrome were included. SD-OCT showed exudative retinal detachment in all 34 eyes with punctate hyperreflective signals; 26 eyes had choroidal folds, and 14 patients (28 eyes) had " septum-like" structures under the neuroepithelium. FFA early images showed late retinal fluorescence pooling in a multi-lake pattern in all 34 eyes. ICGA was performed in 15 patients (30 eyes), with early images showing hyperfluorescence of choroidal vessels in all 30 eyes; 26 eyes had scattered hypofluorescent lesions in the fundus. Mid-to-late images showed blurred boundaries of choroidal vessels in 28 eyes.Conclusions:Patients with acute VKH syndrome have characteristic manifestations in SD-OCT, FFA, and ICGA. Fundus multimodal imaging can provide important references for the diagnosis of VKH syndrome.

Objective:To analyze the current situation of low copper diet management in children with hepatolenticular degeneration, so as to provide reference and help for individualized low copper diet guidance.Methods:Questionnaire survey and semi-structured interview were used. In the questionnaire survey, a total of 113 parents of children with hepatolenticular degeneration who were treated in the Pediatric Outpatient Department and ward of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 2021 to October 2022 were selected as the research objects. And a self-designed Low Copper Diet Status Questionnaire for Children with Hepatolenticular Degeneration was used for investigation. In the semi-structured interview, the purposive sampling method was used to recruit research objects that met the inclusion criteria. When the information reached saturation, they were no longer included, and finally 16 interviewees were included. Results:The results of the questionnaire showed that the items with the lowest accuracy in the part of the low-copper diet knowledge questionnaire for parents of children with hepatolenticular degeneration were "whether the food was edible according to the amount of copper in the food, for example, if the copper content in 100 g food exceeded 0.5 mg, it was forbidden to eat" and "in the following bean food (tofu, yuba, dried bean curd, oily bean curd), which one had the highest copper content". Among the 113 children, 55 were completely managed by their parents on a low copper diet, 53 children were jointly managed with their parents on a low copper diet, and 4 children were self-managed on a low copper diet. A total of 64 children currently followed the principle of a low copper diet, only consuming a few major categories of foods with low copper content. A total of 32 children ensured a diversified diet while ensuring that the total copper content in their daily food did not exceed the standard. The themes extracted from semi-structured interviews included insufficient awareness of low copper diet among parents of affected children, concerns about their children dining outside, doubts about how to balance low copper diet and nutritional balance among parents, and hopes that medical staff could provide some assistance in low copper diet guidance.Conclusions:The management of low-copper diet in children with hepatolenticular degeneration is poor. The parents of the affected children lack knowledge about low copper diet and have many confusions, and there is an urgent need for medical personnel to provide more specific, rich and practical guidance on low copper diet.

Objective:To understand the mental health status of fathers in neonatal intensive care unit and the intervention strategies for fathers′ mental health problems.Methods:Using the scoping review method as a framework, the studies on the mental health status of fathers with NICU in PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM were searched. The included studies were summarized and analyzed. The search time was from the database establishment to 30 August 2022. The content of literature extraction included author, country, publication time, research type, sample size, research variables, research content, and research results.Results:A total of twenty-five articles were included. Among them,11 literatures reported the mental health status of fathers of children in neonatal intensive care unit. Fathers experienced both negative and positive psychological changes after admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, stress, sadness, and post-traumatic growth. Fourteen articles involved intervention strategies for mental health problems of fathers. Intervention strategies include enhancing social support (emotional support, peer support), stress management training (written disclosure, relaxation training, mindfulness therapy), information support, family integrated care (accompanied visits, kangaroo care).Conclusions:The admission of a newborn to the intensive care unit has caused many psychological problems for the father. However, there is still a lack of intervention strategies for fathers′ mental health problems, and it is still necessary for medical staff to take corresponding intervention measures according to fathers′ needs.

Objective:To investigate the whole genome characteristics and mutation of imported 2019-nCoV and trace potential source at the genomics level, the viral genomes from the specimens of a cluster of COVID-19 cases which were imported from a freighter were directly sequenced and determined by high-throughput sequencing technology and bioinformatics analysis.Methods:Throat swab specimens from the 8 confirmed cases of COVID-19 from the same freighter were collected to perform the whole genome sequencing for 2019-nCoV using the targeted genome amplification, combined with Ion S5 next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. Varieties of online virus analysis platforms was used to classify the viruses and analyze mutation sites in the whole genome. Phylogenetic analysis software was used to construct a phylogenetic tree for the viruses, combined with the epidemiological data of the case, to speculate about the source of the viruses.Results:Eight complete genome sequences of 2019-nCoV was successfully obtained. The complete genomes of the viruses were 29, 822-29, 865 bp in length, with the average sequencing depth of 11 928×-33 588× and the coverage of 99.73%-99.87%; the result of Pangolin classification showed that all the eight 2019-nCoV genomes belong to VOC/Delta (B.1.617.2) lineage. The result of whole genome mutation analysis showed that compared with the Wuhan reference strain, the median number of nucleotide mutations in the eight 2019-nCoV genome sequences was 35 (31 to 38), and the median number of amino acid mutations was 26 (24-28); the mutation sites were distributed in 8 gene coding regions (ORF1a, ORF1b, S, ORF3a, M, ORF7a, ORF8, N). Further analysis revealed that eight 2019-nCoV genomes contained 23 characteristic mutation sites belonging to the Delta (B.1.617.2·AY.2) variants of 2019-nCoV. Since the mutation sites among the eight 2019-nCoV genomes were not completely overlapped, and the epidemiological survey report showed that the freighter stopped at multiple ports and had personnel alternation, it was speculated that the clustered COVID-19 cases might have different origins. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all the eight 2019-nCoV genomes were on the AY.2 sub-lineage of the B. 1.617.2 lineage. This result was consistent with the result of Pangolin classification and mutation analysis.Conclusions:In this study, 8 whole genome sequences of Delta variants were obtained through NGS technology from the clustered COVID-19 cases which were imported from a freighter. The sequencing method and analysis result in this study could provide reference for the 2019-nCoV mutation analysis and tracing the source of the COVID-19 cases for the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic.

OBJECTIVE To boost access to medical insurance for drugs and improve the accessibility and affordability of drugs. METHODS The current status of the application of international and domestic drug Managed Entry Agreement (MEA)were investigated through literature research method and other methods ,and analyzed comparatively from the aspects of the scope of agreement drugs ,the types of agreements and the content of the agreement ,etc. The problems existing in the application of drug MEA in China were summarized to put forward the suggestions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The UK ,Australia and Italy had rich experience in the application of drug MEA ,and the operation management mechanism were complete. The scope of drugs included in MEA in these countries were relatively broad and the types of agreements were relatively diversified. In China ,drugs included in MEA were mainly oncology drugs and rare disease drugs. The types of agreements mainly included “finance-based agreements”and effect guarantee/effect-based payment in individual-level of“performance-based agreements ”. China ’s evidence collection platform was imperfect and lacked standardized process of MEA. It is suggested that stakeholders should consider increasing the types of drugs ,diversified types of agreements ,improving the accuracy and continuity of evidence collection , establishing a standardized process for MEA.
