International Eye Science 2025;25(3):455-460
AIM: To investigate the change trend of angle Kappa after intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in cataract patients and its relationship with IOL stability.METHODS: A total of 120 patients(120 eyes)with cataract who received IOL implantation in our hospital from February 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the research objects, including 56 left eyes and 64 right eyes. The results of ophthalmic examination, the distribution of angle Kappa, the changes of angle Kappa and the stability of IOL at different time points before and after operation were compared. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the correlation between IOL rotational stability and ophthalmic examination indexes. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between angle Kappa and IOL stability.RESULTS: After surgery, angle Kappa decreased and the degree of decrease decreased gradually(all P<0.05), and the IOL rotation degree also decreased gradually(P<0.05). The degree of IOL rotation at 2 mo after surgery was positively correlated with axial length(AL), lens thickness(LT), horizontal keratometer(K1), vertical keratometer(K2), pupil diameter(PD)and angle Kappa at 1 d after surgery(all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with anterior chamber depth(ACD)at 1 d after surgery(all P<0.05). AL, ACD, PD and angle Kappa had significant effects on IOL rotation degree(all P<0.05). With the increase of angle Kappa, the degree of IOL rotation gradually increased, that is, the stability of IOL gradually decreased(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Angle Kappa decreased significantly after IOL implantation in cataract patients, and then tended to be stable. The stability of IOL decreased with the increase of angle Kappa.

BackgroundSchizophrenia is a highly heterogeneous disease with different clinical subtypes. Artificial intelligence technology represented by deep learning models has provided considerable benefits for the electroencephalogram (EEG)-based schizophrenia diagnosis, treatment and research, however, to date little research has been conducted regarding any of these benefits among Chinese schizophrenic patients. ObjectiveTo investigate the application of deep learning techniques utilizing EEG parameters for the diagnosis of first-episode schizophrenia and grading of EEG abnormalities in patients, with the aim of contributing to improved clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies for the disorder. MethodsFrom January 2020 to January 2023, a total of 130 patients with first-episode schizophrenia who met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10), and attended at the Third People's Hospital of Fuyang, along with 150 health checkup examinees, were enrolled. All of them underwent EEG examination. An optimized long short-term memory (LSTM) deep learning model was developed utilizing EEG signals. Ten-fold cross-validation method was employed to evaluate the model's performance. The dataset was then split into two components: a training set (90%) for LSTM model development and a test set (10%) for validation. The accuracy, recall rate, precision, F1-score, schizophrenia diagnosis and EEG abnormality grading were used as evaluation indicators, and the results of the proposed model were compared to the assessments made by experienced psychiatrists. ResultsFor schizophrenia diagnosis, the modeling group achieved the following performance metrics: precision (94.40±3.03)%, recall rate (94.30±3.23)%, accuracy (94.60±2.22)%, and F1-score (94.20±2.20)%. In the validation group, the corresponding metrics were precision (90.90±2.85)%, recall rate (92.20±1.14)%, accuracy (92.20±1.69)%, and F1-score (91.50±1.78)%. Statistical analysis revealed no significant differences between the LSTM diagnostic model and the experienced psychiatrists in terms of precision, recall rate, accuracy, and F1-score for schizophrenia diagnosis (χ2=1.500, 0.750, 2.722, 1.056, P>0.05). The modeling group demonstrated an accuracy rate of (91.71±1.73)% in grading EEG abnormalities. For Grade 1 abnormalities, the modeling group reported a precision of (96.40±2.39)%, a recall rate of (94.77±1.40)%, and an F1-score of (95.55±1.14)%. In the case of Grade 2 abnormalities, the precision was (85.89±2.04)%, the recall rate was (88.10±6.18)%, and the F1-score was (87.06±3.12)%. For the more severe Grade 3 abnormalities, the modeling group's precision was (79.61±7.33)%, the recall rate was (81.79±9.87)%, and the F1-score was (80.41±6.79)%. Additionally, the validation group exhibited an accuracy rate of (85.61±6.16)%. The precision, recall rate, and F1-score for Grade 1 abnormalities were (91.43±6.25)%, (92.64±9.65)% and (91.56±4.83)%, respectively. For Grade 2 abnormalities, these metrics were (71.17±19.02)%, (77.64±17.24)% and (71.88±11.33)%. In the case of Grade 3 abnormalities, the precision was (90.00±21.08)%, the recall rate was (80.00±25.82)%, and the F1-score was (81.67±19.95)%. There was no significant difference in the accuracy, recall, accuracy and F1 value between LSTM model and senior doctors in evaluating the abnormal degree of EEG in schizophrenia (χ2=0.098, 0.036, 0.020, 0.336, P>0.05). The LSTM model takes less time to diagnose schizophrenia and EEG abnormalities than senior doctors, and the differences were statistically significant (t=57.147, 43.104, P<0.01). ConclusionThe study utilizes an EEG-based LSTM deep learning model for diagnosing first-episode schizophrenia and grading EEG abnormalities, and the model not only matches the performance of experienced psychiatrists but also significantly reduces the time required for diagnosis.

To analyze the clinical characteristics of acute diquat poisoning complicated by central nervous system injury (CNSI) and identify early risk factors, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for reducing mortality in diquat poisoning with CNSI. Clinical data from patients with acute diquat poisoning admitted to the Emergency Department of Fuyang People's Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University between October 2019 and October 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into CNSI and non-CNSI groups based on complications. Clinical features were compared between groups, and variables with statistical significance were subjected to binary logistic regression to identify independent risk factors for CNSI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to evaluate the predictive value of these factors. A total of 63 eligible patients were included, with 18 deaths (28.57%) and 26 cases (41.27%) complicated by CNSI. The median time from diquat ingestion to CNSI onset was 15.5 (9.8, 31.3) hours. The CNSI group exhibited significantly higher mortality rates and required more frequent respiratory support and anti-shock therapy than the non-CNSI group (all CNSI is a fatal complication of acute diquat poisoning with high mortality. Diquat plasma concentration (≥549.95 μg/L) and APACHE Ⅱ score are independent risk factors for CNSI, and their combined application enhances predictive accuracy. These findings underscore the importance of early risk stratification and targeted interventions in high-risk populations.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of Gandou decoction (GDD) by analyzing theclinical efficacy of GDD combined with speech training on the treatment of dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat in Wilson's disease (WD), so as to provide more clinical data and theoretical support for the selection of appropriate treatment schemes for WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat. MethodA total of 60 eligible WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat were selected and divided into a control group and a treatment group according to the random grouping method, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with speech training + sodium dimercaptopropanesulfonate (DMPS), and the treatment group was combined with GDD on the basis of the control group, with eight days as a course of treatment for 32 days. The total clinical effectiveness rate (Goldstein clinical classification), dysarthria grading assessment from China Rehabilitation Research Center, TCM syndrome scores, 24-hour urine copper content, and modified Frenchay dysarthria rating scale scores of the two groups were compared before and after treatment. ResultAfter treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 90.0% (27/30), and that of the control group was 70.0% (21/30). The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (Z=-1.986,P<0.05). After treatment, the modified Frenchay dysarthria score, dysarthria grading assessment from China Rehabilitation Research Center, and 24-h urine copper in the two groups were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the TCM syndrome score was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the control group after treatment, except for the respiratory and jaw score, the modified Frenchay dysarthria score of the observation group was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). The dysarthria grading from China Rehabilitation Research Center and 24-h urine copper content were significantly increased (P<0.01), and the observation group had better efficacy. During the study period, there were no serious adverse reactions such as fever, rash, oral and eyelid mucosal swelling, exfoliative dermatitis, vomiting, diarrhea, or allergic shock during copper excretion treatment of DPMS and oral administration of GDD. ConclusionGDD combined with speech training can improve the symptoms and efficacy of WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat and enhance the patients' living standard to a certain extent, which can be widely used in clinics.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of paeoniflorin on glucose metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and its potential mechanism based on nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/ heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) signaling pathway. METHODS The female rats fed with high fat and high sugar diet and the male rats fed with an ordinary diet were caged, the successfully conceived rats were collected, and streptozotocin was injected intraperitoneally once to induce the GDM model. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group, metformin hydrochloride group (200 mg/kg metformin by gavage), paeoniflorin low-, high-dose groups (45, 90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage, respectively), paeoniflorin+ML385 group (90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage and intraperitoneal injection of 30 mg/kg Nrf2 inhibitor ML385), with 12 rats in each group; in addition, another 12 conceived rats fed with an ordinary diet were selected as the control group. The rats in each drug group were given the corresponding drug/normal saline, once a day, for 2 consecutive weeks. Glucose metabolism indexes [fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR)], serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF- α)] and renal tissue oxidative stress indexes [superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)] were detected; the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed, and the protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the renal tissue lesions of the model group were obvious, including glomerular atrophy, edema degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells and a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration; the levels of FBG and FINS, HOMA-IR, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in serum, and the level of MDA in renal tissue were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the levels of SOD and GSH-Px and the protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the renal tissue lesions of rats in paeoniflorin low-dose and high-dose groups were reduced, the above quantitative indexes were significantly improved, and the improvement effect was better in high-dose group (P<0.05), while ML385 could significantly reverse the improvement effect of paeoniflorin on the above indexes (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Paeoniflorin can improve the abnormal glucose metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress damage of renal tissue in GDM rats, which may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1/NOQ1 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical effect of Budigafol combined with Staphylococcus and neisseria tablets in maintenance treatment of patients with stable moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS A total of 122 patients with stable moderate to severe COPD who were admitted to the infections diseases ward of the department of respiratory and critical care medicine in our hospital from October 1, 2021 to January 31, 2023 were divided into control group (n=61) and observation group (n=61) according to the random number table method. Patients in the control group were treated with Budigafol inhalation aerosol alone (2 presses each time, twice a day), and patients in the observation group were treated with Staphylococcus and neisseria tablets (1.2 mg each time, 3 times a day) on the basis of the control group. The treatment course of both groups was 3 months. The quality of life, exercise tolerance, lung function, inflammatory indexes, immune function, as well as the number of acute attacks of COPD and the occurrence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. RESULTS Control group and observation group shed 12 and 9 patients, respectively. After treatment, the 6 minute walking distance of the two groups of patients was significantly prolonged compared with that before treatment (P<0.05). The COPD assessment test questionnaire score, St George’s respiratory questionnaire score, the ratio of residual volume to total lung capacity, the fractional exhaled nitric oxide, the serum levels of C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 were significantly E-mail:13956685295@163.com decreased compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). The forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), the ratio E-mail:13966580920@163.com of FEV1 to forced vital capacity, the percentage of the measured value of carbon monoxide diffusion capacity to the predicted value, and the percentage of the measured value of FEV1 to the predicted value were significantly increased compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). The improvement of the above indicators in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with before treatment, there was no statistical significance in the immune function indexes of the control group or the serum levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA) and IgM in the observation group after treatment (P>0.05). The percentages of CD3+ , CD4+ , B lymphocytes and natural killer cells, the levels of CD4+/CD8+ and IgG were significantly increased in the observation group (P< 0.05), the percentage of CD8+ cells was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the improvement degree of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the number of acute exacerbations of COPD during the follow-up period and the incidence of adverse events during treatment between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Budigafol combined with Staphylococcus and neisseria tablets can effectively improve the immune function of patients with stable moderate to severe COPD, further reduce the level of inflammation, and improve their exercise tolerance and their quality of life with good safety.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of Tanreqing injection combined with Ceftazide on the clinical efficacy, lung function, and laboratory inflammatory index of patients suffering from phlegm heat obstructing lung syndrome in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). MethodFrom June 2021 to June 2023, 76 patients diagnosed with phlegm heat obstructing lung syndrome in AECOPD were enrolled in the respiratory and critical medical department of Jieshou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group with 38 cases each. The control group used Ceftazidime intravenous drip and other conventional oxygen inhalation and antispasmodic treatment measures of western medicine. The observation group received Tanreqing injection intravenous drip based on the treatment of the control group, with a course of 10 days. The changes of laboratory indicators such as hs-CRP, calcitonin (PCT), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after treatment were analyzed, and the improvement of forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), one second rate (FEV1/FVC), assessment and improvement of the British Medical Research Society’s dyspnea index (mMRC), self-evaluation test of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (CAT), and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score was compared. In addition, the total effective rate between the two groups after treatment was compared. ResultAfter treatment, the hs-CRP, PCT, IL-6, FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, mMRC, CAT scores, and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome evaluation of both groups improved (P<0.01). After treatment, compared with the control group, the observation group showed more significant improvements in hs-CRP, PCT, IL-6, FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, mMRC, CAT scores, and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome evaluation, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05,P<0.01). The total clinical effective rate of the control group was 86.84% (33/38), while that of the observation group was 94.74% (36/38). The therapeutic effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group (χ2=8.471, P<0.05). ConclusionTanreqing injection combined with Ceftazidime has obvious efficacy in the treatment of phlegm heat obstructing lung syndrome in AECOPD, which is better than the treatment of Ceftazidime antibiotics alone. It can reduce the risk of acute exacerbation, alleviate clinical symptoms, and delay the decline of lung function.

OBJECTIVE
To systematically review the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in CYP2C19 loss-of-function carriers with mild ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack(TIA).
METHODS
Databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang were systematically searched, and the search period was from database establishment to June 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and evaluated the methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.
RESULTS
A total of 2 studies with 7 087 patients were included. Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor reduced the incidence of stroke[RR=0.78, 95%CI(0.66−0.93), I2=0%, P=0.007] and vascular event[RR=0.78, 95%CI(0.66−0.91), I2=0%, P=0.002] in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA carrying the CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele. The incidence of any bleeding[HR=2.18, 95%CI(1.66−2.85)] and minor bleeding[HR=2.41, 95%CI (1.81−3.20)] in the ticagrelor-aspirin group was higher than that in the clopidogrel-aspirin group, and dyspnea (1.2% vs 0.2%, P<0.001) and arrhythmias(1.7% vs 0.8%, P=0.001) were more common in the ticagrelor-aspirin group than in the clopidogrel-aspirin group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of severe bleeding between the two groups.
CONCLUSION
Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor reduces the incidence of stroke and vascular events in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA carrying the CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele, and did not increase the risk of severe bleeding. However, the ticagrelor group had a higher incidence of minor bleeding, dyspnea and arrhythmias.
