AIM: To explore the risk factors of macular edema in patients with diabetes cataract after surgery, and provide reference for postoperative prevention and treatment.METHODS: A total of 55 diabetes cataract patients(55 eyes)with macular edema after phacoemulsification surgery at the ophthalmology department of Jiaozhou Central Hospital of Qingdao from January 2022 to January 2024 were selected as edema group. In addition, 59 patients(59 eyes)with diabetes cataract who received the same surgical treatment but did not develop macular edema were treated as control group, and the relationship between interferon-induced protein-10(IP-10), macrophage chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1), vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and postoperative macular edema was analyzed.RESULTS:Age, diabetes course, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c), creatinine, levels of IP-10, MCP-1 and VEGF in aqueous humor in the edema group were higher than those in the control group(all P<0.05). The risk factors for postoperative macular edema in patients with diabetes cataract were prolonged duration of diabetes, BCVA, increased HbA1c, increased creatinine and IP-10 in aqueous fluid, increased MCP-1 and increased VEGF(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Macular edema after surgical treatment in diabetes cataract patients is associated with prolonged duration of diabetes, BCVA, HbA1c, creatinine, IP-10, MCP-1, and VEGF, and clinical interventions should be given in advance.

Objective To explore the impact of deep learning image reconstruction(DLIR)algorithms on image quality of chest CT,detection rate of lung nodule and reproducibility of lung nodule radiomics feature data compared with adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction V(ASIR-V)algorithms.Methods Seventy-five patients with 211 lung nodules who underwent both ultra-low-dose CT(ULD-CT)and standard-dose CT(SDCT)were prospectively enrolled.ULD-CT images were reconstructed using different algorithms,namely high-level DLIR(DLIR-H),medium-level DLIR(DLIR-M)and 50％ASIR-V(50％ASIR-V),while SDCT images were reconstructed by 50％ASIR-V.Image noise was represented by the standard deviation(SD)of lung parenchyma CT values within identical ROI in both ULD-CT and SDCT images,and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)were calculated.The detection rate of lung nodule were obtained and compared among different images.Radiomics features of lung nodules in chest 50％ASIR-V SDCT and each ULD-CT were extracted based on automatic segmentation methods,and intra-class correlation coefficients(ICC)of each ULD-CT and 50％ASIR-V SDCT were calculated respectively,and then compared among different ULD-CT algorithms.Results Compared with SDCT images reconstructed with 50％ASIR-V algorithm,all ULD-CT images reconstructed by different algorithms showed higher SD and lower SNR(all P＜0.05).ULD-CT images reconstructed by DLIR-H,DLIR-M and 50％ASIR-V exhibited progressively increasing SD and decreasing SNR(all adjusted P＜0.05).Taken 50％ASIR-V SDCT images as standards,ULD-CT by DLIR-H,DLIR-M and 50％ASIR-V each detected 207 lung nodules(207/211,98.10％),respectively.In chest ULD-CT images,the reproducibility with 50％ASIR-V SDCT for texture feature data of lung nodules on ULD-CT reconstructed by 50％ASIR-V algorithm was lower than that by DLIR-H and DLIR-M(both adjusted P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between the latter two with 50％ASIR-V SDCT(adjusted P＞0.05).The first order and shape feature data of lung nodules on ULD-CT reconstructed by all 3 algorithms showed good reproducibility with 50％ASIR-V SDCT(median ICC＞0.75),and no significant difference was detected among them(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with 50％ASIR-V ULD-CT,both DLIR-H and DLIR-M ULD-CT could significantly reduce image noise and improve image quality,as well as maintain reproducibility of radiomics features in lung nodules in a certain degree,especially DLIR-H.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum hepcidin antimicrobial peptide (HAMP), secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), and regulator of G protein signaling 2 (RGS2) levels and the clinical pathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients, and their predictive value for postoperative recurrence or metastasis.Methods:A total of 92 gastric cancer patients treated at Handan First Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the gastric cancer group, and 92 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group. The serum levels of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 were compared between the two groups. According to the mean levels of HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 in the serum of gastric cancer patients, they were divided into HAMP high level group and HAMP low level group, SPP1 high level group and SPP1 low level group, RGS2 high level group and RGS2 low level group. The clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients with different levels of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 were compared respectively. After a median follow-up of 18 months, gastric cancer patients were divided into a non-recurrence or metastasis group ( n=59) and a recurrence and metastasis group ( n=33) based on whether the tumor recurred or metastasized. The serum levels of HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 were compared between the two groups of patients. The predictive value of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 for postoperative recurrence or metastasis in patients with gastric cancer was analyzed by using the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:Compared with the control group, the gastric cancer group had higher levels of serum HAMP [ (52.28±5.44) ng/ml vs. (31.22±4.18) ng/ml] and SPP1 [ (55.96±6.43) ng/ml vs. (36.99±5.25) ng/ml] ( t=29.44, P<0.001; t=21.92, P<0.001), and lower level of RGS2 [ (3.72±0.66) mg/L vs. (5.11±0.87) mg/L) ] ( t=12.21, P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in maximum tumor diameter ( χ2=13.07, P<0.001; χ2=6.71, P=0.010; χ2=10.56, P=0.001), TNM staging ( χ2=7.42, P=0.006; χ2=6.36, P=0.012; χ2=5.39, P=0.020), lymph node metastasis ( χ2=23.41, P<0.001; χ2=6.52, P=0.011; χ2=13.11, P<0.001), and differentiation degree ( χ2=9.01, P=0.003; χ2=7.97, P=0.005; χ2=15.29, P<0.001) between the gastric cancer patients in the HAMP high level group ( n=44) and the HAMP low level group ( n=48), the SPP1 high level group ( n=43) and the SPP1 low level group ( n=49), and the RGS2 high level group ( n=50) and the RGS2 low level group ( n=42). Compared with the non-recurrence or metastatic group, the recurrence and metastatic group had higher levels of serum HAMP [ (59.26±5.66) ng/ml vs. (48.37±4.28) ng/ml] and SPP1 [ (62.85±6.36) ng/ml vs. (52.11±5.38) ng/ml] level ( t=10.40, P<0.001; t=8.60, P<0.001), and lower level of RGS2 [ (3.01±0.48) mg/L vs. (4.12±0.69) mg/L] ( t=8.19, P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) values of serum HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 levels alone for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients were 0.777, 0.813, and 0.778, respectively. The AUC value of the combination of the three indicators for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients was 0.871. The predictive efficacy of the combination of the three indicators for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients was better than that alone ( Z=2.51, P=0.035; Z=2.61, P=0.032; Z=2.71, P=0.029) . Conclusions:The levels of HAMP and SPP1 in the serum of gastric cancer patients increase, while the level of RGS2 decreases, and the levels of the three are related to the maximum tumor diameter, TNM staging, lymph node metastasis and differentiation degree, and their combined detection has higher predictive value for postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients.

Measurement data with normal or approximate distribution were expressed as xˉ± s, and independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Enumeration data were expressed as percentage, and chi-square test was adopted for between-group comparison. Results:After 15 days of treatment, the C-ACT score with (16.20±3.14) points in observation group was higher than (14.80±2.62) points in control group while the ACQ score with (30.30±4.14) points was lower than (34.60±6.23) points in control group, with statistical differences between groups (t values were 2.54 and 4.26; P values were 0.012 and <0.001).

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) therapy in children with steroid dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS)/frequently relapsed nephrotic syndrome (FRNS).Methods:The clinical data of children with SDNS/FRNS who received treatment with prednisone acetate tablets were retrospectively collected from June 2019 to June 2023 in the Nephrology Department of Xi′an Children′s Hospital. The children were divided into glucocorticoid+ACTH group and glucocorticoid group, according to whether ACTH was used or not. The differences in cortisol, total cholesterol and 24 hour urinary protein quantity between 2 groups of children at baseline and follow-up endpoints were compared, and the effectiveness (the proportion of no recurrence and discontinuation of glucocorticoid) and occurrence of adverse reactions were evaluated.Results:A total of 39 patients with SDNS/FRNS were included in this study, with 21 cases in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group and 18 cases in the glucocorticoid group. Among the 39 children, there were 33 cases of SDNS and 6 cases of FRNS, respectively. The proportion of baseline low cortisol levels was 76.9% (30/39). The proportion of cortisol levels returning to normal after ACTH treatment in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group was 76.2% (16/21). The baseline and follow-up endpoint for cortisol levels in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group were 28.0(19.8, 51.5) μg/L and 79.9(58.9, 113.0) μg/L, respectively. The baseline and follow-up endpoint for cortisol levels in the glucocorticoid group were 21.0(15.8, 37.4) μg/L and 25.3(18.2, 51.4) μg/L, respectively.

The baseline and follow-up endpoint for total cholesterol in the glucocorticoid group were 4.80 (4.17, 5.28) mmol/L and 5.74 (5.04, 6.88) mmol/L, respectively. In the 2 groups of total cholesterol, there was statistically significant difference in the interaction effect between time and group ( Wald χ 2=9.842, P=0.002), there was statistically significant difference at the follow-up endpoint between the 2 groups ( Wald χ 2=12.187, P<0.001), the difference was statistically significant between the 2 groups in the time effect at baseline and the follow-up endpoint (glucocorticoid+ACTH group: Wald χ 2=6.488, glucocorticoid group: Wald χ2=7.112; all P<0.05). The baseline and follow-up endpoint for 24 hour urinary protein quantity in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group were 115 (105, 128) mg/d and 121 (113, 128) mg/d, respectively. The baseline and follow-up endpoint for 24 hour urinary protein quantity in the glucocorticoid group were 118 (113, 125) mg/d and 138 (119, 2 100) mg/d, respectively.

The proportion of no recurrence (17/21) and discontinuation of oral glucocorticoid (16/21) in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group were higher than those in the glucocorticoid group (the proportion were both 6/18), and the differences between the 2 groups were statistically significant (the chi square values were 9.084 and 7.240, respectively; all P<0.01). No adverse reactions occurred in the glucocorticoid group. The incidence of adverse reactions in the glucocorticoid+ACTH group was 14.3% (3/21), of which 2 cases developed generalized urticaria and 1 case developed hypertension. Conclusions:ACTH has a good efficacy and safety in children with SDNS/FRNS. The results of this study need to be further validated by increasing the sample size and conducting multicenter studies.

Objective To explore the impact of deep learning image reconstruction(DLIR)algorithms on image quality of chest CT,detection rate of lung nodule and reproducibility of lung nodule radiomics feature data compared with adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction V(ASIR-V)algorithms.Methods Seventy-five patients with 211 lung nodules who underwent both ultra-low-dose CT(ULD-CT)and standard-dose CT(SDCT)were prospectively enrolled.ULD-CT images were reconstructed using different algorithms,namely high-level DLIR(DLIR-H),medium-level DLIR(DLIR-M)and 50％ASIR-V(50％ASIR-V),while SDCT images were reconstructed by 50％ASIR-V.Image noise was represented by the standard deviation(SD)of lung parenchyma CT values within identical ROI in both ULD-CT and SDCT images,and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)were calculated.The detection rate of lung nodule were obtained and compared among different images.Radiomics features of lung nodules in chest 50％ASIR-V SDCT and each ULD-CT were extracted based on automatic segmentation methods,and intra-class correlation coefficients(ICC)of each ULD-CT and 50％ASIR-V SDCT were calculated respectively,and then compared among different ULD-CT algorithms.Results Compared with SDCT images reconstructed with 50％ASIR-V algorithm,all ULD-CT images reconstructed by different algorithms showed higher SD and lower SNR(all P＜0.05).ULD-CT images reconstructed by DLIR-H,DLIR-M and 50％ASIR-V exhibited progressively increasing SD and decreasing SNR(all adjusted P＜0.05).Taken 50％ASIR-V SDCT images as standards,ULD-CT by DLIR-H,DLIR-M and 50％ASIR-V each detected 207 lung nodules(207/211,98.10％),respectively.In chest ULD-CT images,the reproducibility with 50％ASIR-V SDCT for texture feature data of lung nodules on ULD-CT reconstructed by 50％ASIR-V algorithm was lower than that by DLIR-H and DLIR-M(both adjusted P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between the latter two with 50％ASIR-V SDCT(adjusted P＞0.05).The first order and shape feature data of lung nodules on ULD-CT reconstructed by all 3 algorithms showed good reproducibility with 50％ASIR-V SDCT(median ICC＞0.75),and no significant difference was detected among them(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with 50％ASIR-V ULD-CT,both DLIR-H and DLIR-M ULD-CT could significantly reduce image noise and improve image quality,as well as maintain reproducibility of radiomics features in lung nodules in a certain degree,especially DLIR-H.
