AIM:To analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.METHODS:We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey in December 2022 on all students of a university in Shaanxi Province, and the questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, mobile phone addiction, high myopia, and lifestyle. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.RESULTS:A total of 19 952 college students were included. The prevalence of high myopia was 7.31%. The rate of mobile phone addiction was 25.68%, and the mobile phone addiction score was 37.59±13.38. The incidence of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was higher than non-mobile phone addiction(P<0.001). After adjusting for socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyle, the risk of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was 1.274 times(95%CI:1.131-1.434)higher than non-mobile phone addiction. For each point increase of total mobile phone addiction score, withdrawal symptoms score, salience score, social comfort score, and mood changes score, the risk of high myopia among college students increased by 0.9%(95%CI:1.005-1.013), 2.0%(95%CI:1.010-1.030), 2.6%(95%CI:1.010-1.043), 4.8%(95%CI:1.030-1.066), and 3.3%(95%CI:1.014-1.052), respectively.CONCLUSION:Mobile phone addiction is significantly associated with the increased risk of high myopia among college students, and early intervention of mobile phone use may reduce the risk of high myopia among college students.

Objective:To understand the relationship between unhealthy lifestyle and hyperuricemia, as well as the modification effects of hypertension and dyslipidemia in occupational population and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention of hyperuricemia.Methods:A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, based on baseline data from the Southwest Occupational Population Cohort from China Railway Chengdu Group Co., Ltd., which included the population in 28 prefectures from Sichuan Province and Guizhou Province, and 33 districts (counties) from Chongqing Municipality between October and December 2021. This study collected the information about the demographics characteristics, lifestyles, and prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases of the study subjects through questionnaire, physical measurement and laboratory biochemical test. The unhealthy lifestyle score was scored based on smoking, alcohol consumption, dietary patterns, physical activity, and low weight or overweight, with higher scores being associated with more unhealthy lifestyles. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between unhealthy lifestyle score, smoking, alcohol consumption, other factors and hyperuricemia, and the stratified analysis was used to explore the modification effect of hypertension and other diseases on the relationship between unhealthy lifestyle and hyperuricemia.Results:A total of 11 748 participants were included in this study, the prevalence of hyperuricemia was 34.4%. Multivariate logistic regression model showed that current/previous smoking, current/previous alcohol consumption and BMI abnormality were risk factors for hyperuricemia, and the unhealthy lifestyle score showed a "cumulative" effect on the risk for hyperuricemia, with higher score increasing the risk of hyperuricemia, and the OR increased from 1.64 (95% CI: 1.34-2.00) to 2.89 (95% CI: 2.39-3.50). Stratified analysis showed that unhealthy lifestyles had a greater impact on the risk for hyperuricemia in people with hypertension and dyslipidemia. Conclusions:The coexistence of multiple unhealthy lifestyles might increase the risk of hyperuricemia, and this effect was stronger in participants with hypertension and dyslipidemia. Timely correction of unhealthy lifestyles, and control of hypertension and dyslipidemia might reduce the risk for hyperuricemia.

Objective:To compare the patient-reported outcomes and short-term clinical outcomes between robotic-assisted and laparoscopic-assisted radical gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer.Methods:This single-center prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from October 2020 to August 2022. Patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who were to undergo radical gastrectomy were selected and randomly divided into two groups according to 1∶1, and received robotic surgery and laparoscopic surgery, respectively. Patient-reported outcomes and short-term clinical outcomes (including postoperative complications, surgical quality and postoperative short-term recovery) were compared between the two groups by independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, repeated ANOVA, generalized estimating equation, χ2 test and Fisher′s exact test. Results:A total of 237 patients were enrolled for modified intention-to-treat analysis (120 patients in the robotic group, 117 patients in the laparoscopic group). There were 180 males and 59 females, aged (63.0±10.2) years (range: 30 to 85 years). The incidence of postoperative complications was similar between the robotic group and laparoscopic group (16.7% (20/120) vs. 15.4% (18/117), χ2=0.072, P=0.788). The robotic group had higher patient-reported outcomes scores in general health status, emotional, and social domains compared to the laparoscopic group, differences in time effect, intervention effect, and interaction effect were statistically significant (general health status: χ2 value were 275.68, 3.91, 6.38, P value were <0.01, 0.048, 0.041; emotional: χ2 value were 77.79, 6.04, 6.15, P value were <0.01, 0.014, 0.046; social: χ2 value were 148.00, 7.57, 5.98, P value were <0.01, 0.006, 0.048). However, the financial burden of the robotic group was higher, the differences in time effect, intervention effect and interaction effect were statistically significant ( χ2 value were 156.24, 4.08, 36.56, P value were <0.01, 0.043,<0.01). Conclusion:Compared to the laparoscopic group, the robotic group could more effectively relieve postoperative negative emotions and improve recovery of social function in patients.

Objective:To explore the role of interleukin-18 (IL-18) in the pathogenesis of dermatomyositis (DM) associated with positive anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibodies(MDA5-DM).Methods:Twenty-eight cases of MDA5-DM in the department of rheumatology and immunology, the first hospital of Nanjing medical university and the first affiliated hospital od Wannan medical colledge from August 2018 to December 2011 were included in this study, comprising 15 cases with combined rapidly progressive interstitial pneumonia (RPILD) and 13 cases without RPILD (nonRPILD). Additionally, 28 cases of antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) and 28 healthy volunteers (HC) were included for comparison. Clinical, laboratory, and imaging data were collected for both the DM and ASS groups. Serum IL-18 levels were measured using ELISA. Independent t test, Mann-whitney U test, χ2 test and Fisher′s exact probability method were used for analysis. Results:Significant differences were observed in LDH, hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH), ESR, CRP, serum ferritin (SFE), and IL-18 levels between the MDA5-DM group, the ASS group and the HC group ( F=46.65, 43.19, 31.28, 23.94, 30.94, 49.44, all P<0.001). Additionally, lymphocyte counts and hemoglobin levels differed significantly among the three groups( F=35.26, P<0.001; F=18.59, P<0.001). MDA5-DM patients exhibited higher incidences of Gottron′s sign, helitrope rash, periungual erythema, skin ulcers, and RPILD compared to ASS patients ( χ2=20.96, P<0.001; χ2=5.85, P=0.016; χ2=13.69, P<0.001; χ2=9.16, P=0.002; χ2=4.79, P=0.029). However, the incidence of mechanic′s hand was lower in MDA5-DM patients ( χ2=3.90, P=0.048). The level of IL-18 significantly decreased in MDA5-DM after treatment[(104.28(71.96,151.10)pg/ml vs. 78.30(56.20, 94.80)pg/ml, =2.27, P=0.023)]. Similar reductions were observed in the ASS group[(72.30(61.39, 95.94)pg/ml vs. 45.30(29.00,84.10)pg/ml, Z=2.691, P=0.007]. The IL-18 level changes in the MDA5-DM combined with RPILD group were not statistically significant [99.49 (77.65, 130.87)pg/ml vs. 89.40(54.80, 120.20)pg/ml, Z=0.65, P=0.515]. In the MDA5-DM survival group, IL-18 levels decreased significantly after treatment [59.45(53.58, 81.63)pg/ml vs. 106.37(83.62, 152.07)pg/ml, Z=2.80, P=0.005], while the changes in the IL-18 levels of patients in the MDA5-DM death group were not statistically significant [99.49(56.70, 140.15)pg/ml vs. 94.80(71.40, 155.45)pg/ml, Z=1.75, P=0.080]. Conclusion:MDA5-DM patients are different from the ASS patients in clinical manifestations and indicators involved in laboratory tests. The expression level of IL-18 tends to increase during the active phase of MDA5-DM and ASS, and decrease with remission of the disease. MDA5-DM may play an important role in the pathogenesis, and persistent high level of IL-18 is responsible for RPILD and death of MDA5-DM. Sustained high level of IL-18 can be used as a potential biomarker for the estimating development of MDA5-DM into RPILD.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a dedicated neonatal-infant brain 0.35 T MRI system.Methods:A dual-center controlled clinical trial was conducted with single-arm objective performance criteria. From June to July 2020, sixty-six infants aged 0-12 (6.3±3.4) months were recruited from Children′s Hospital of Soochow University and the First People′s Hospital of Lianyungang prospectively. All infants underwent brain MRI with a dedicated neonatal-infant 0.35 T brain MRI system, using the dedicated two-channel transceiver head coil. MRI protocol included spin echo T 1WI, fast spin echo T 2WI, fluid attenuated inversion recovery, diffusion weighted imaging and 3D gradient echo sequence. MRI sequences were set with three orientations (axial, sagittal and coronal). Each case received at least two scanning planes and two scanning sequences. Five-point Likert scoring system was used to evaluate the image quality of acquired images, and the target value was set as at least 3 points per image. The temperature, heart rate and breathe of the infants were recorded before and after MRI; the acoustic noise of the MRI system was measured during the scanning process; and the adverse reactions were recorded if presented. Results:Five infants successfully completed their examination during non-sedated sleep in a single attempt, and 61 infants after sedation with chloral hydrate. Based on MRI-based five-point Likert scoring system, 41 cases achieved a score of 5, 21 cases with a score of 4 and 4 cases with a score of 3. Cases with score of 3 was due to movement of the infants during the scan, which resulted in motion related artifacts. The vital signs of all infants showed stable before and after imaging, with heart rate of (126.8±12.9) beats per minute, breathe of (38.2±6.8) times per minute. It was found that 47 cases showed no sign of temperature raise after brain MRI, 15 cases had less than 0.3 ℃ raise and 4 cases had 0.3 ℃ to 0.5 ℃ raise. The noise recorded during the scanning process was (57.5±1.8) dB(A). One case had mild diarrhea on the day of MR scan, and the symptoms disappeared on the second day without treatment; no adverse reactions were found for the rest subjects.Conclusion:Dedicated neonatal-infant 0.35 T brain MRI system allows data acquisition with high safety and excellent image quality, which has potentials in the clinical applications.
