AIM: To analyze the recovery of stereopsis and its influencing factors in children with intermittent exotropia(IXT)after binocular vision training.METHODS: A total of 166 cases of IXT children who were treated in our hospital from October 2021 to October 2023(2 cases lost their follow-up, and 164 cases were finally included)were included as the research object, taking 36 cases with no stereopsis after binocular vision training in eye position correction surgery as no stereopsis group, and other 128 cases as stereopsis group. All the children underwent eye position correction surgery under general anesthesia, and all received binocular vision training for 6 mo after surgery. The recovery of stereoscopic vision of IXT children after binocular vision training was counted, and the influencing factors of stereoscopic vision recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training were analyzed by single factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: The incidence of postoperative no stereopsis was 22.0%. The proportion of children with an age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a and anisometropia in the group without stereoscopic vision after operation was larger than the group with stereoscopic vision(all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the course of disease ≥1 a, age ≥9 years old and anisometropia were independent influencing factors for the recovery of stereoscopic vision in IXT children after binocular vision training(OR=1.470, 1.626, 1.539, all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a, and anisometropia are the independent influencing factors of stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training. Therefore, targeted intervention measures can be given to high-risk children to improve the stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training.

Objective:To evaluate the endometrial implantation window in patients with recurrent implantation failure using endometrial receptive array(ERA)sequencing or endometrial histological detection methods,and to explore the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness analysis of two technologies for improving clinical outcomes in such patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on clinical data of 125 patients diagnosed with repeated implantation failure in Gansu Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022.According to whether endometrial receptivity testing was accepted and different detection techniques were used,they were divided into a control group(n=36),a genomic group(n=35),and a histological group(n=54).The clinical data and pregnancy outcomes of the three groups were compared.Results:①The results of one-way ANOVA showed that the embryo implantation rate in the genomic group and histological group was significantly higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no sta-tistically significant difference in embryo implantation rate between genomic and histological groups(P=0.48).②There was no statistically significant difference in clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate among the three groups(P＞0.05).③Log rank test showed:The time for 50％of patients to reach live labor was significantly shorter than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);There was no sta-tistically significant difference in the time to live birth in 50％of patients between the genomic and histological groups of 50％of patients(P＞0.05).④The average number of embryos transferred in the control group was significantly higher than that in the genomic and histological groups,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The cost of genomic patients was significantly higher than that of histology group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:①Endometrial implantation window detection is feasible for patients with re-peated implantation failure,which can effectively shorten the time to live birth and reduce the number of transplan-ted embryos;②Both ERA sequencing and endometrial histology detection have limitations as methods to evaluate endometrial implantation window,and it is not clear which detection method has more advantages in accuracy and practicability.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether Jiedu Huoxue prescription can induce macrophage autophagy and inhibit inflammatory response to stabilize vulnerable plaques of atherosclerosis （AS） by regulating phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway. MethodThirty ApoE^-/- mice fed with high-fat diet were randomly assigned into model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （5.35， 10.7， and 21.4 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） Jiedu Huoxue prescription （Chinese medicine）， and rapamycin （2 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） groups. Six ApoE^-/- mice fed with common diet were used as the control group， and 6 C57BL/6J mice fed with common diet as the blank group. The drugs or equal volume of normal saline were administrated by gavage after 7 weeks of modeling， and the treatment lasted for 4 weeks. The serum levels of lipids and inflammatory cytokines ［monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 （MCP-1） and interleukin-6 （IL-6）］ were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was employed to observe the pathological changes of the vascular wall of the aortic root. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of macrophages/monocytes monoclonal antibody （MOMA-2） and α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）. Transmission electron microscopy was employed to count the autophagosomes in the aorta， and Western blot to determine the protein levels of Beclin-1， LC3， PI3K， Akt， and mTOR. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group showed elevated serum levels of lipids， MCP-1， and IL-6 （P<0.05）， inhibited expression of MOMA-2 and α-SMA （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated protein level of Beclin-1 （P<0.05）， and down-regulated protein levels of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The model group presented obvious atherosclerotic plaques on the inner wall of the aorta， infiltration of inflammatory cells in the plaque， thickened and disarranged vascular intima where the plaque was attached， decreased autophagosomes and mitochondria， and destroyed mitochondrial structure. Chinese medicine and rapamycin groups showed lower levels of total cholesterol， triglycerides， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol， MCP-1， and IL-6 （P<0.05）， higher level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （P<0.05）， inhibited expression of MOMA-2 and α-SMA （P<0.05， P<0.01）， higher protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and lower protein levels of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR （P<0.05， P<0.01） than the model group. Moreover， Chinese medicine and rapamycin groups showed only a small number of atherosclerotic plaques on the inner wall of the aorta， reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells and thickness of the blood vessel wall， and increased autophagosomes and autophagic lysosomes. ConclusionJiedu Huoxue prescription can improve lipid metabolism， enhance macrophage autophagy， and reduce AS-induced inflammation to improve the stability of vulnerable plaques in AS mice by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.
