		                        			Objectives:To investigate the impact of baseline non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C)levels on new-onset cardiovascular disease(CVD)in postmenopausal women. Methods:This prospective cohort study selected 8 893 postmenopausal women who participated from 2006 to 2018 employee health examination of Kailuan Group and had complete total cholesterol(TC)and HDL-C data and no history of CVD.Participants were followed up to 31 December,2021.The primary endpoint was the occurrence of CVD or death.According to the Chinese Lipid Management Guidelines(2023),the participants were divided into non-HDL-C<4.1 mmol/L group(n=6 079),4.1 mmol/L≤non-HDL-C<4.9 mmol/L group(n=1 824)and non-HDL-C≥4.9 mmol/L group(n=990).The cumulative incidence of CVD in different groups of non-HDL-C levels was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and tested by log-rank analysis.Multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyze the effects of different non-HDL-C levels on CVD. Results:The mean follow-up time was(10.78±4.48)years,the cumulative incidence of CVD in different non-HDL-C level groups was 1.82%,3.24%and 2.89%,respectively.Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed a statistically significant difference in cumulative incidence among the three groups(log-rank P<0.0001).The results of Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors such as age and sex,the HR(95%CI)values for CVD in the 4.1≤non-HDL-C<4.9 mmol/L group and the non-HDL-C≥4.9 mmol/L group were 1.40(1.13-1.74)and 1.35(1.03-1.78),respectively. Conclusions:High non-HDL-C levels are an independent risk factor for new-onset CVD in postmenopausal women.

		                        			Objective:To study the clinical and immunological features of two case of rare antisynthetase syndrome (ASS), so as to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment.Methods:Two cases with rare antisynthetase syndrome admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2020 to August 2022 were collected.Results:The two rare ASS were anti-Zo antibody and anti-Ha antibody positive patients, both of which had interstitial lung disease (ILD) as the main clinical manifestation and positive anti-Ro52 antibody. Two rare antisynthetase autoantibodies manifested cytoplasmic ANA indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) staining pattern, but it is different from the cytoplasmic dense speckled pattern of several common ASS antibodies. After treatment with glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, case 1 died of respiratory failure due to a long course of disease and late diagnosis, the lung lesions of case 2 improved significantly.Conclusion:When encountering the cytoplasmic ANA fluorescent pattern in ILD patients, especially with anti-Ro52 antibody, it is necessary to screen more myositis specific antibodies to rule out the possibility of rare ASS.

		                        			 AIM: To observe the changes of corneal densitometry(CD)in patients with keratoconus after corneal cross-linking(CXL).METHODS: Retrospective study. A total of 32 patients(43 eyes)with keratoconus in Ningxia Eye Hospital from April 2020 to April 2022 were selected. Pentacam analysis system divided the cornea into three layers: anterior 120 μm, middle layer and posterior 60 μm, and divides it into five regions with diameters of 0-2, 2-6, 6-10, 10-12 mm and full diameter according to the diameter, and measures the CD in different ranges. The changes of CD were compared before operation and at 1, 3 and 6 mo after operation.RESULTS: There were differences in uncorrected visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure before and 6 mo after operation(all P<0.05), and there was no difference in corneal endothelial cells(P=0.477). CD reached its peak at 1 mo after operation, and decreased at 3 mo and 6 mo after operation, but it was still higher than that before operation. There is a significant positive correlation between CD and Kmax in the anterior layer and the whole layer(r=0.164, P=0.016; r=0.152, P=0.023).CONCLUSION: The values of CD peaked at 1 mo after CXL, then it gradually decreased, tending to become stable at 6 mo postoperatively.

		                        			Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

		                        			【Objective】 To explore a transfusion therapeutic plan for hemolytic disease of the newborn(HDN) caused by anti-c antibodies in mother of Asian-type DEL. 【Methods】 The ABO blood type and Rh phenotype of the mother and child were determined using the saline tube method. The mother′s RhD negativity was confirmed through classical anti-human globulin testing and RhD adsorption-elution test. The mother′s unexpected antibodies were screened and their titers were measured using classical anti-human globulin testing, antibody card test and polyamine method. Cross-matching was conducted. The three hemolysis tests were performed by antibody card test. The mother′s RHD gene typing was conducted using a commercially available RHD negative identification gene detection kit (PCR-SSP method). 【Results】 The mother exhibited a CCee Rh serological phenotype, and the DEL gene test confirmed the presence of RHD*1227A, indicating the production of anti-c antibodies. The infant displayed a DCcEe Rh serological phenotype, positive for direct antiglobulin test and red cell elution. Based on the mother′s obstetric history, clinical manifestations of the infant and blood examination results, the diagnosis was HDN caused by anti-c antibodies. 【Conclusion】 For infants with HDN caused by anti-c antibodies in mother of Asian-type DEL, DCCee Rh phenotype red blood cell transfusion is recommended, while CCee Rh phenotype deglycerolized red blood cell transfusion is recommended for the mother.

		                        			Objective:To summarize the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of epilepsy patients with fixation-off sensitivity (FOS).Methods:Using "fixation-off sensitivity" and "epilepsy" as search terms, data were retrieved from the Electroencephalogram Monitoring Center Database of Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University. Information was collected on epilepsy patients with FOS who were seen at the Xijing Hospital Electroencephalogram Monitoring Center from March 2019 to May 2023. A retrospective analysis of video electroencephalograms and clinical information was conducted, along with follow-up. Single factor analysis and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis of the patients.Results:A total of 78 patients met the inclusion criteria, including 43 females and 35 males; the age at first epilepsy onset was 12.00 (8.00, 15.25) years. Among these 78 patients, 46 were diagnosed with genetic generalized epilepsy, 11 with self-limited focal epilepy, 9 with familial cortical myoclonic tremor with epilepsy, 7 with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 3 with symptomatic epilepsy, and 2 with progressive myoclonic epilepsy. The fixation-off induction trial most commonly triggered seizures in epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia (EEM) patients, with eyelid myoclonia being the most common type of seizure. Twenty-five epilepsy patients with FOS showed a positive photoparoxysmal response, of whom 6 experienced photo-convulsive response. Sixty-eight patients completed follow-up with comprehensive clinical data. At the last follow-up, 45 patients had been free from tonic-clonic seizures for at least one year. A history of febrile seizures ( OR=20.559, 95% CI 2.179-193.997, P=0.008) and cognitive decline ( OR=3.752, 95% CI 1.118-12.588, P=0.032) were identified as risk factors for poor prognosis in epilepsy patients with FOS. The age of first epilepsy onset, the number of anti-seizure medications, and the intermittent photo stimulation trial results had no correlation with prognosis. Conclusions:FOS is more common in female epilepsy patients and can be observed in both generalized and focal epilepsy syndromes. EEM patients are prone to seizures during fixation-off induction trial, and the most common type of seizures is eyelid myoclonus seizure. Patients with epilepsy with FOS who have a history of febrile seizures and cognitive impairment tend to have poor prognosis.
