The incidence of myopia is increasing year by year and the trend of younger age is obvious. The situation of myopia prevention and control is very serious. The sclera is the target organ for the development of myopia. When myopia occurs and develops, the ultrastructure of the sclera tissue will undergo pathological changes, resulting in a decrease in its tensile strength, then progressive axial growth and posterior sclera expansion. Scleral collagen cross-linking can effectively increase the hardness and tensile strength of scleral tissue, which may have great potential in the prevention and control of myopia, especially pathological myopia. At present, the effectiveness of scleral collagen cross-linking technology in the prevention and treatment of pathological myopia researches are still in the stage of animal experiments, and there are a lot of controversies on the safety. The development of any new technology to ensure safety is the primary condition. A comprehensive understanding of the safety of scleral collagen crosslinking in the prevention and control of myopia can provide more basis and guidance for the further study of scleral collagen crosslinking.

Herpes zoster ophthalmicus(HZO)is caused by the involvement of the ophthalmic division trigeminal nerve after reactivation of varicella-zoster virus(VZV)latent in the trigeminal ganglia, which usually occurs in the elderly and people with low immune function. The clinical manifestations of HZO are complex and diverse, which show not only keratoconjunctivitis and uveitis, but also retinal necrosis, optic neuropathy, and rare central nervous system lesions. Some cases do not have typical skin lesions, which can easily lead to missed diagnosis, misdiagnosis, and mistreatment, seriously affecting People's life quality. This article aimed to evaluate the clinical manifestations of HZO cases reported in the literature in recent years and comprehensively understand their diversity and complexity to better diagnose and treat the disease. This study also aimed to improve the diagnosis and cure rates of the disease, reduce the maximum number of visual damage, and provide more evidence for the precise diagnosis and treatment of HZO.

Objective:To investigate the influencing of high sodium donor liver transplan-tation from the death of a citizen′s organ donation (DCD) on the prognosis of recipients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was constructed. The clinicopathological data of 125 pairs of donors and recipients who underwent DCD liver transplantation in Xijing Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from January 2015 to June 2021 were collected. Of the 125 donors, there were 93 males and 32 females. Of the 125 recipients, there were 92 males and 33 females, aged 48(41,55)years. According to the last time of serum sodium level of donor liver in the 125 recipients, 9 donor livers with serum sodium level ≥170 mmol/L were divided into group 1 (extremely high sodium), 33 donor livers with serum sodium level ≥150 mmol/L and <170 mmol/L were divided into group 2 (moderate high sodium), and 83 donor livers with serum sodium level <150 mmol/L were divided into group 3 (normal sodium), respectively. Observation indicators: (1) postoperative recover situations; (2) follow-up and survival analysis. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Repeated measures were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and Pearson chi-square test or Fisher exact probability were used for data test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves and Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Postoperative recover situations. The changes of alanine transaminase (AlT), aspartate aminotransferases (AST), total bilirubin (TBil), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), albumin (Alb) and creatinine (Cr) from the first day to the 14th day after operation were (736±972)IU/L to (75±46)IU/L, (1 290±1 651)IU/L to (38±20)IU/L, (102±98)μmol/L to (33±11)μmol/L, (66±34)IU/L to (104±54)IU/L, (19.9±3.3)seconds to (11.3±1.0)seconds, 1.76±0.31 to 1.00±0.08, (34±5)g/L to (38±3)g/L and (91±41)μmol/L to (76±19)μmol/L, respectively, in the recipients of group 1.

Results of overall effect showed there were significant differ-ences in the change trend of TBil (time effect, inter-group effect, interaction effect) in recipients among the three groups after liver transplantation ( Fgroup=5.42, Ftime=22.78, Finteraction=3.85, P<0.05). There were significant differences in the time effect of ALT, AST, ALP, PT, INR, Alb, Cr in recipients among the three groups after liver transplantation ( Ftime=50.17, 36.24, 19.24, 10.55, 59.61, 41.94, 10.82, P<0.05). (2) Follow-up and survival analysis. All recipients were followed up. Cases with early postoperative liver dysfunction, cases with donor liver failure 1 year after operation, cases with biliary complica-tions 1 year after operation, cases with vascular complications 1 year after operation, cases with rejection 1 year after operation were 2, 1, 0, 0, 0 in the recipients of group 1. The above indicators were 2, 1, 3, 0, 1 in the recipients of group 2 and 10, 8,20, 1, 6 in the recipients of group 3. There was no significant difference in the above indicators among the three groups ( χ2=1.58, 0.60, 5.19, 1.62, 0.97, P>0.05). The 1-year and 3-year cumulative survival rates of the donor liver were 100.00% and 100.00% in the recipients of group 1 after liver transplantation. The above indicators were 94.74% and 77.16% in the recipients of group 2 and 91.57% and 89.30% in the recipients of group 3. There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate of donor liver among the three groups ( χ2=2.69, P>0.05). The 1-year and 3-year cumulative survival rates were 100.00% and 100.00% in the recipients of group 1 after liver transplantation. The above indicators were 93.74% and 77.16% in the recipients of group 2 and 89.40% and 86.00% in the recipients of group 3. There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate among the three groups ( χ2=1.94, P>0.05).

Objective:To explore the effect of alcohol abstinence intervention based on timing theory on patients with alcoholic liver disease.Methods:A total of 106 patients with alcoholic liver disease hospitalized in the Department of liver disease of Taian Medical District, 960th Hospital of Chinese PLA from July 2018 to June 2019 were selected by convenience sampling method and divided into observation group and control group by random digits table method, 53 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing, and through the improvement of patients' cognition and support system, implemented short abstinence intervention during hospitalization; the observation group received abstinence intervention based on timing theory on the basis of the control group intervention. At 1 month and 6 months after discharge, the differences of rehydration rate, alcohol dependence and physical and mental status between the two groups were compared.Results:Finally, 49 cases in the control group completed the study, and 51 cases in the observation group completed the study. The rehydration rates of the observation group were 21.57%(11/51) and 15.69%(8/51) respectively at 1 month and 6 months after discharge, while those of the control group were 40.82%(20/49) and 36.73%(18/49) respectively at 1 month and 6 months after discharge. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2 values were 4.328, 5.754, P<0.05). The alcohol dependence scores were 0(2,3), 0(1,2) in the observation group and 2(0,3), 3(1,4) in the control group at 1 month and 6 months after discharge, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z values were -6.719, -7.345, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the score of Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90) before intervention and 1 month after discharge between the two groups ( P>0.05). Six months after discharge, the score of SCL-90 was 8.26 ± 1.37 in the observation group and 10.11 ± 1.68 in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant( t value was 6.046, P<0.01). Conclusions:The application of timing theory in alcohol abstinence of patients with alcoholic liver disease can significantly reduce the relapse rate and the degree of alcohol dependence of patients with alcoholic liver disease, improve the physical and mental state of patients.

Objective:To explore the application of a 3D printed patient-specific guider (3D-PSG) in complex total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of the data of 44 patients who had received complex artificial TKA for articular and extra-articular deformities of the knee from January 2016 to October 2019 at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Nanjing First Hospital. According to whether a 3D-PSG had been applied, the patients were divided into 2 groups. In the 3D-PSG group of 23 patients, there were 11 males and 12 females, with an age of 63.7 years ± 10.2 years (from 53 to 81 years); in the conventional group of 21 cases, there were 10 males and 11 females, with an age of 64.2 years ±12.1 years (from 51 to 79 years). In the 3D-PSG group, the preoperative CT data were 3D reconstructed for measurement of a full lower limb and design of a 3D-PSG and TKA was assisted by a 3D-PSG which had been manufactured by a 3D printer using the STL files of the 3D-PSG imported. In the conventional group TKA was performed in a standard manner. In the 3D-PSG group, the TKA surgical parameters in the preoperative plan were compared with actual surgical measurements. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, length of hospital stay, visual analogue scale (VAS), Knee Society Score (KSS), hip knee ankle (HKA), frontal femoral component (FFC), frontal tibial component (FTC), lateral femoral flexion (LFF) and lateral tibial component (LTC).Results:There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the preoperative general data, showing comparability ( P>0.05). In the 3D-PSG group, no significant differences were found between preoperative parameters designed and actual intraoperative measurements in the prosthetic type of femoral condyle (3.4±1.1 versus 3.5±0.9) or of tibial plateau (3.1±0.9 versus 3.3±1.2), or in the filler thickness (10.6 mm ± 3.2 mm versus 10.9 mm ± 4.7 mm) ( P>0.05). The 44 patients were followed up for an average of 10.8 months (from 7 to 13 months). The 3D-PSG group had significantly less operation time (65.7 min ± 10.5 min), intraoperative blood loss (19.8 mL ±7.3 mL), postoperative drainage volume (124.6 mL ± 27.9 mL) and hospital stay (7.3 d ± 2.5 d) than the conventional group (82.4 min ± 11.7 min, 86.5 mL ± 35.7 mL, 154.6 mL ± 21.3 mL and 10.6 d ± 3.1 d) ( P<0.05). The VAS and KSS scores at postoperative day 1, week 1 and week 2 in the 3D-PSG group were significantly better than those in the conventional group ( P<0.05). Significantly more patients in the 3D-PSG group achieved approximately ideal values in HKA, FFC, FTC, LFF and LTC than those in the conventional group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:A 3D printed patient-specific guider may improve surgical accuracy, reduce operation time and achieve better surgical outcomes in complex total knee arthroplasty.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of ultra-low anastomosis for anal preservation in laparoscopic rectal can-cer surgery. Methods: The clinical data of 54 patients with low rectal cancer admitted to The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from July 2014 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The short-term effect and complications were analyzed. Results:All patients underwent successful operations; conversion to laparotomy or death was not observed in any of the patients. The mean operative time was (165 ± 31) minutes, and the intraoperative bleeding volume was (12 ± 5) mL. There was no prophylactic ileostomy in all patients. Postoperative anastomotic bleeding and anastomotic leakage occurred in 2 and 3 cases, respectively; these complica-tions were managed with conservative treatment. Postoperative urination and sexual functions of the patients remained good, and most patients were satisfied with their anal function 1 year post-operation. No local recurrences or deaths were noted after follow-up for more than 2 years. However, liver metastases were detected in 3 patients 1 year post-surgery. Conclusions: Laparoscopic transab-dominal ultra-low anastomosis for rectal cancer has a good short-term effect; however, the long-term effect remains to be evaluated.

Objective To investigate the differences of clinicopathological features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis between patients with extra?gastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGIST) and duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (DGIST). Methods A retrospective case?control study was performed. Case inclusion criteria: (1) tumor confirmed by histology and pathology; (2) primary tumor locating in the extra?gastrointestinal tract or duodenum; (3) without other synchronous tumors; (4) complete clinical and pathological data. Clinical data of 20 EGIST patients and 32 DGIST patients from March 2011 to September 2016 at Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The observational parameters included clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis conditions. Continuous data of abnormal distribution were expressed as median (range) and compared using the Mann?Whitney U?test. Survival curves were drawn by the Kaplan?Meier method and compared with the Log?rank test. Results Of the 20 EGIST patients, 8 were males and 12 were females with age of 61.0 (30.0 to 86.0) years and of the 32 DGIST patients, 12 were males and 20 were females with age of 55.5 (27.0 to 70.0) years. Compared with DGIST patients, EGIST patients were older (U=188.000, P=0.012], had larger tumor size [10.0 (3.0 to 29.0) cm vs. 4.0 (1.5 to 10.0) cm, U=98.500, P<0.001] and higher ratio of high risk classification [85.0% (17/20) vs. 12.5% (4/32), χ2=26.870, P<0.001]. Among the 20 EGIST patients, 5 were diagnosed with distal metastasis and received imatinib (400 mg/d), and the other 15 patients underwent radical resection who were included in survival analysis. All the 32 DGIST patients underwent radical resection. The median follow?up of whole group was 43 (14 to 76) months. The 3?year recurrence/metastasis?free survival rate of 15 cases undergoing radical resection in the EGIST group was 85.6%, which was lower than that of the DGIST group (88.6%), and the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.745). There was no significant difference in the 3?year overall survival rate between the EGIST group (92.9%) and the DGIST group (100%) (P=0.271). Conclusions As compared to DGIST, EGIST mostly occurs in those with older age, larger tumor size and higher risk grade. The prognosis of EGIST patients after radical resection is similar to that of DGIST patients.
