AIM: To investigate the application of deep optical coherence tomography(DRI-OCT)combined with IOL Master 500 in measuring choroidal thickness and axial length(AL)in pediatric myopic patients, and analyze the relationship between choroidal thickness and AL.METHODS: Prospective study. A total of 210 pediatric myopia patients(210 eyes)admitted between August 2021 and August 2024 were enrolled. Based on spherical equivalent(SE)measurements, they were categorized into a low myopia group(-3.00 D 0.05). Intraocular pressure, SE, AL, and choroidal thickness at different locations all showed significant differences(all P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that AL negatively correlated with choroidal thickness(both P<0.001). The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicate that intraocular pressure, SE, and AL are factors influencing choroidal thickness(all P<0.001).CONCLUSION:DRI-OCT combined with IOL Master 500 is able to detect choroidal thickness and AL well, in addition, choroidal thickness closely correlated with intraocular pressure, SE and AL levels.

Objective: To explore the development history trends and research hotspots in children and adolescent overweight and obesity studies, so as to provide a basis for conducting scientific research in related fields. Methods: Relevant literature were retrieved from CNKI, WanFang Data Knowledge Service Platform, VIP Chinese Journal Service Platform, China Biomedical Literature Service System, Web of Science Core Collection and PubMed database from January 1980 to September 2024, and knowledge graph was constructed by using CiteSpace visualization software to explore and analyze. Results: A total of 9 108 articles were retrieved (5 197 in Chinese and 3 911 in English). From 1980 to 2024, the number of publications in the field of overweight and obesity research in children and adolescents showed an upward trend. Keyword cooccurrence analysis showed that body fat percentage (intermediary centrality:0.69), body mass index (intermediary centrality:0.50) and physical activity (intermediary centrality:0.13) were the bridge keywords connecting the research field. The keyword clustering results showed that coexistence outcomes of multiple diseases such as cardiovascular metabolic diseases and psychological disorders, as well as intervention plans based on family, school and community became research hotspots. The evaluation of the effects of highintensity interval training and emerging weight loss interventions such as electronic games gradually became a new trend in research. Conclusion Influencing factors, coexistence outcomes of multiple diseases, and the application and evaluation of intervention remain key research focuses in children and adolescent overweight/obesity studies.

The gradient field, one of the core magnetic fields in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems, is generated by gradient coils and plays a critical role in spatial encoding and the generation of echo signals. The uniformity or linearity of the gradient field directly impacts the quality and distortion level of MRI images. However, traditional point measurement methods lack accuracy in assessing the linearity of gradient fields, making it difficult to provide effective parameters for image distortion correction. This paper introduced a spherical measurement-based method that involved measuring the magnetic field distribution on a sphere, followed by detailed magnetic field calculations and linearity analysis. This study, applied to assess the nonlinearity of asymmetric head gradient coils, demonstrated more comprehensive and precise results compared to point measurement methods. This advancement not only strengthens the scientific basis for the design of gradient coils but also provides more reliable parameters and methods for the accurate correction of MRI image distortions.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the global cancer-associated thromboembolism risk assessment tools based on evidence- based methods， and to provide methodological reference and evidence-based basis for constructing a specific tool in China. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted on 6 databases， including CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP， CBM， PubMed， and Embase， as well as on the websites of NCCN， ASCO， ESMO and so on with a deadline of June 30， 2022. Furthermore， a supplementary search was conducted in January 2023. The essential characteristics and methodological quality of included risk assessment tools were described and analyzed qualitatively， focusing on comparing each assessment stratification ability. RESULTS Totally 14 risk assessment tools were included in the study， with a sample size of 208-18 956 cases and an average age distribution of 53.1-74.0 years. The applicable population included outpatient cancer student@sina.com patients， lymphoma patients， and multiple myeloma patients，etc. The common predictive factors were body mass index， venous thromboembolism history， and tumor site. All tools had undergone methodological validation， with 9 presented in a weighted scoring format. Only seven tools were used simultaneously for specificity， sensitivity， negative predictive value （NPV）， positive predictive value （PPV） and area under the curve （AUC） or C statistical analysis. CONCLUSIONS The risk of bias in constructing existing tools is high， and the heterogeneity of tool validation results is significant. The overall methodological quality must be improved， and its risk stratification ability must also be investigated. There are still certain limitations in clinical practice in China.

Objective:To analyze the effect of montelukast combined with budesonide in the treatment of children with intermittent asthma, and the impact on airway remodeling and T helper type 1 (Th1)/T helper type 2 (Th1/Th2) related cytokines.Methods:A prospective study was conducted among 120 children with intermittent asthma admitted to Huanghua Municipal People′s Hospital from December 2021 to February 2023. The children were randomly divided into the control group (60 children treated with budesonide atomizationinhalation) and the observation group (60 children treated with montelukast on the basis of the treatment of control group). Clinical efficacy, airway remodeling indicators [total area of airway (Ao), outer diameter of airway (D) and wall area to total airway cross-sectional area (WA%)], pulmonary function [peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) and the maximum expiratory flow at 25% of vital capacity (MEF25%)], Th1/Th2 related cytokines, inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)], recurrence, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group: 90.00% (54/60) vs. 75.00% (45/60) ( P<0.05). After treatment, Ao, D and WA% in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (17.58 ± 1.89) mm 2 vs. (19.22 ± 1.94) mm 2, (4.25 ± 0.48) mm vs. (4.48 ± 0.49) mm, (63.75 ± 6.49)% vs. (69.22 ± 7.14)% ( P<0.05). PEF, FEV 1/FVC and MEF25% in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (3.13 ± 0.34) L/s vs. (2.86 ± 0.35) L/s, (87.45 ± 8.86) % vs. (83.59 ± 8.42) %, (87.63 ± 8.86)% vs. (82.15 ± 8.43)% ( P<0.05). The levels of Th1 and Th1/Th2 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (14.13 ± 1.46) % vs. (10.27 ± 1.25) %, 3.46 ± 0.39 vs. 1.88 ± 0.25, and the level of Th2 was lower than that in the control group: (3.96 ± 0.45)% vs. (5.48 ± 0.56)% ( P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (76.15 ± 7.78) ng/L vs. (66.38 ± 6.47) ng/L, (7.15 ± 0.74) ng/L vs. (6.14 ± 0.66) ng/L. The levels of IL-4 and IL-6 were lower than those in the control group: (77.85 ± 7.96) ng/L vs. (86.42 ± 8.74) ng/L, (37.25 ± 3.89) mg/L vs. (44.23 ± 4.57) mg/L ( P<0.05). The recurrence rate in the observation group was lower than that in the control group: 3.33% (2/60) vs. 15.00% (9/60) ( P<0.05). The incidence rates of adverse reactions in the two groups were without statistically significant difference between the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Montelukast combined with budesonide can reduce airway remodeling in children with intermittent asthma, improve their pulmonary function, Th1/Th2 related cytokines and inflammatory response indicators, and reduce recurrence rate, with good safety.

Transradial approach is the classical access for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). With the increase in the number of interventional procedures, some disadvantages of the transradial approach have also been found, it is easy to lead to various complications, such as radial artery occlusion, radial nerve injury, and puncture difficulties after radial artery spasm. Therefore, some experts put forward the approach of distal radial artery approach for interventional therapy, which has the advantages of convenient positioning, easy postoperative hemostasis, less damage to the proximal radial artery and improving patients' comfort. However, there is no special distal radial artery hemostat in clinic, which limits the development of this approach to a certain extent. Therefore, based on the principles of anatomy and physics, cardiovascular physician at Jiading District District Central Hospital in Shanghai designed and invented a distal radial artery hemostatic device, which is convenient for clinical hemostasis of distal radial artery puncture, and obtained the National Utility Model Patent (patent number: ZL 2021 2 2097829.6). The hemostatic device consists of a glove body with a silicone gasket protruding towards the skin on the inner surface and a binding component. The patient's hand is inserted into the glove body, and after being fixed by the restraint component, the silicone gasket can effectively compress the location of the radial artery puncture point, and play a good hemostatic effect with less pressure, avoid the common complications of proximal radial artery hemostatic, and reduce the discomfort of the patient. Has good application value.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective: To analyze the trends in disease burden of tuberculosis among children under 5 years of age in China from 1990 to 2021, so as to provide insights for future tuberculosis control measures among children in China. Methods: Based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 datasets, the incidence, prevalence, mortality and disability adjusted life year(DALY) of tuberculosis of children under 5 years of age in China and globally were collected from 1990 to 2021. The incidence, prevalence, mortality and DALY rate of tuberculosis were compared by genders and types. In addition,the annual percent change(APC) and the average annual percent change(AAPC) of children s tuberculosis burden in China and globally from 1990 to 2021 were calculated by using the Joinpoint regression model, and the changing trends were analyzed. Results: The numbers of incident, prevalent and dead tuberculosis cases were 9 700, 8 477 800 and 200 among children under 5 years of age in China in 2021, and the DALY due to tuberculosis were 27 100 person years. There were significant reductions in incidence, prevalence, mortality and DALY rate of tuberculosis among children under 5 years of age in China ( AAPC =-5.45%, -1.14%, -12.37%, -11.34 %) and globally( AAPC =-2.38%, -1.41%, -4.66%, -4.56%), and the reductions in the incidence, mortality and DALY rate were more significant in China than globally ( P <0.05).In 1992 and later, the numbers of incident, prevalent and dead tuberculosis cases and the DALY of tuberculosis were higher among male than among female. In addition, the disease burden of drug susceptible tuberculosis appeared a tendency of downward in China from 1990 to 2021, while the incidence and prevalence of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis rose since 2015. Conclusions The disease burden of tuberculosis remarkably reduced among children under 5 years of age in China from 1990 to 2021. However, the burden of disease due to multidrug resistant tuberculosis appeared an upward trend recently. Increased attention is required to be paid to the prevention and control of tuberculosis among children and improved diagnosis and treatment of drug resistant tuberculosis are recommended.

Objective:To construct an evaluation framework with detailed indices for demonstration units (wards) of enteral nutrition nursing, in order to improve the competence of nurses in enteral nutrition nursing and inform the specialized development of enteral nutrition demonstration units (wards).Method:On the basis of literature review and expert discussion, a preliminary draft was developed, and the Delphi expert consultation method was used to conduct two rounds of consultation with 15 clinical experts in the field of enteral nutrition nursing from 15 tertiary hospitals.Results:The effective response rates of questionnaires in two rounds of consultations were both 100%. The first round of expert consultation showed an authority coefficient of 0.90 and a coefficient of variation of 0 to 0.167, while the second round showed an authority coefficient of 0.93 and a coefficient of variation of 0 to 0.113. The Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.338 and 0.368, respectively. Finally, the evaluation framework with detailed indices for the demonstration unit (ward) of enteral nutrition nursing was formed, which consisted of 3 primary indicators, 16 secondary indicators, 54 tertiary indicators, and 62 detailed items.Conclusions:The evaluation framework we developed for the demonstration unit of enteral nutrition nursing follows the diagnosis and treatment process of enteral nutrition management for inpatients, including the triad of structure, process, and outcome. The framework is objective and practical, and can inform the daily practice of enteral nutrition nursing demonstration units (wards) and the development of enteral nutrition nursing specialties.

Objective:To understand the nutritional nursing competence in the enteral nutrition demonstration wards at this stage, so as to inform subsequent training plan.Methods:From September to October in 2023, nurses from 287 institutions involved in the enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project were selected using convenience sampling. Questionnaires on general characteristics and self-assessment scale on nutrition nursing competence were used for online survey. The status quo and influencing factors of nutrition nursing competence in included institutions were analyzed.Results:A total of 5 409 valid questionnaires were collected, with a response rate of 62.63%. The total score of nutrition nursing competence was 74.74±16.11, with the least subtotals in the domain of nutrtion knowledge. Multiple linear regression showed that influencing factors of nutrition nursing competence includes years of working, department, registered dietitian or not, nutrition management specialist or not, completion of the curriculum in enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project, and training/supervision arranged by their department concerning nutrtion nursing and relevant evaluation criteria ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The nutritional nursing competence of clinical nurses in the wards involved in enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project still needs to be improved. Seniors should take into consideration the varying nutritional nursing competence among junior nurses and nurses from different departments, and strengthen the training on nutrition knowledge. It should be encouraged for nurses to actively participate in nutritionist training. Actions including enhancing nutrition specialist training, establishing the multidisciplinary collaborative nutrition care team and conducting regular supervision and assessment should be implemented in the future, to improve the nutritional nursing competence among nurses.
