AIM: To observe the preliminary application of fully automatic feedback perimeter based on the eye gaze tracking technique in the college students and to verify its test performance.METHODS: Home computer, monitor and eye tracker were used to complete the new automatic feedback perimeter meter. Based on the two characteristic eye movements of fixation and pulsation, the abnormal visual field is determined by analyzing whether the participant perceives the visual target, line-of-sight scan path and the fixation towards the visual target. RESULTS: A total of 63 participants(119 eyes)were collected with valid eye movement data. The average time for all participants was 82.46±14.68 s, the average time for right eyes was 88.21±15.30 s, and average time for the left eyes was 76.42±11.29 s(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The fully automatic feedback perimeter based on eye gaze tracking technique can realize automatic human-computer interaction, and the detection method is simple and easy, which shortens the time of perimetry and improves the experience of participants.

In this work, starting from 4-hydroxycoumarin, three series of 22 coumarin derivatives, among which 8 have not been reported in the literature, were synthesized and their in vitro anti-inflammatory activities and mechanisms of action were preliminarily investigated using mouse macrophage model. The results showed that most of the derivatives could significantly inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory factor NO, with compounds 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i, 2j, 4e, and 4f showing better anti-inflammatory activity than the positive control drug dexamethasone. Further experiments showed that compounds 2h and 4f significantly inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory factors IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β in RAW264.7 macrophages, and could, therefore, be used as lead compounds for further studies.

Objective To assess the nutritional status in elderly patients with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) and reveal the key factors affecting the nutritional status. Methods A total of 310 elderly patients with CRI who received hospitalization treatment and outpatient follow-up in the hospital from January 2021 to June 2024 were selected as the investigation subjects. The nutritional status of patients was evaluated by mini-nutritional assessment (MNA) questionnaire, and the nutritional status and dietary structure of patients were comprehensively evaluated by anthropometric indicators [height, weight, body mass index (BMI), upper arm circumference, calf circumference], biochemical indicators [serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), hemoglobin (Hb), transferrin (TF)] and 24-hour dietary review method. According to the investigation results of nutritional status, the patients were divided into good nutrition group (MNA score≥24 points), nutritional risk group (MNA score of 17-23.5 points) and malnutrition group (MNA score<17 points). Univariate analysis was adopted to screen the potential influencing factors of elderly CRI. Multivariate logistic regression model was applied to analyze the influencing factors of malnutrition in elderly CRI patients. Results Among the 325 questionnaires were distributed, but only 310 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.38%. Investigation results revealed that among the 310 patients, 29.35% (91 cases) had good nutritional status, and 42.26% (131 cases) had nutritional risk, and 28.39% (88 cases) had malnutrition. Univariate analysis indicated that there were statistical differences in BMI, CRI staging, serum ALB, PA, Hb, TF, protein intake and total calorie intake among the good nutrition group, the nutritional risk group and the malnutrition group (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that low BMI (OR=0.903, 95%CI: 0.867-0.941), high CRI stage (OR=1.091, 95%CI: 1.053-1.130), low serum ALB (OR=0.907, 95%CI: 0.867-0.948), PA (OR=0.918, 95%CI: 0.888-0.949), Hb (OR=0.944, 95%CI: 0.909-0.997), TF (OR=0.912, 95%CI: 0.874-0.952), insufficient protein intake (OR=0.924, 95%CI: 0.882-0.969) and insufficient total calorie intake (OR=0.938, 95%CI: 0.909-0.968) were influencing factors for malnutrition in elderly patients with CRI (all P<0.05). Drawing ROC curve of malnutrition in elderly patients with CRI according to the prediction probability of logistic regression model found that the AUC, sensitivity, specificity, 95%CI and Youden index were 0.976, 93.18%, 92.34%, 0.953-0.990 (P<0.05) and 0.855. Conclusion The incidence rate of malnutrition is high in elderly patients with CRI, and is mainly affected by factors such as low BMI, high CRI stage, low serum ALB, PA, Hb and TF levels and insufficient protein and total calorie intakes. In addition, logistic regression model has high predictive value and can provide a reference for early clinical identification of high-risk population with malnutrition among elderly patients with CRI.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility of establishing a temporary trauma team led by trauma experts in primary hospitals for disaster medical rescue. METHODS: In the coal mine flooding accident in Xiaoyi City, Shanxi Province on December 15, 2021, according to the local emergency plan and the characteristics of the accident, the trauma experts trained the medical staff from the local primary hospital on advanced trauma life support (ATLS) and damage control surgery (DCS) in the short time interval between the occurrence of the mine disaster and the admission of medical staff to the disaster scene. A temporary trauma team composed of trauma experts, ATLS team, and DCS team was formed to provide early diagnosis and treatment for survivors before and in the hospital. RESULTS: The miners were found on the 36th hour of the disaster. All 22 miners were male, and 2 died underground. Another 20 people were rescued 39－43 hours after the disaster, with a median age of 48 years (34-57 years). All the survivors suffered from hypothermia, dehydration, maceration of feet and other injuries. There were 18 cases of acute inhalation tracheobronchitis, 14 cases of electrolyte acid-base disturbance, 6 cases of trunk contusion, 1 case of psoas major hematoma, and 1 case of lower extremity hematoma. Deep vein thrombosis was in 4 cases. The ATLS team focused on injury assessment, rewarming and rehydration within 50－60 minutes before admission, and completed auxiliary examinations within 2 hours after admission to clarify the diagnosis. The DCS team evaluated 6 patients with mechanical blunt trunk injury and excluded the indication of emergency surgery. The trauma experts conducted the whole process of supervision and quality control of disaster rescue. The positive rate of capillary refill test in the all survivors at the third hour of admission was significantly lower than that immediately after being rescued (75.0% vs. 15.0%, P=0.000 3), and they were discharged 4－7 days after admission. CONCLUSION Under the leadership of trauma experts and relying on the medical staff of primary hospitals, it is feasible to establish and train a temporary trauma team with ATLS and DCS functions to participate in the medical rescue of disasters, which is in line with the current national conditions of China.

The Healthy China 2030 Plan set the goal of reducing premature deaths from diabetes by 30% by 2030. However, there has been a lack of assessment of premature mortality for diabetes since the action plan was issued. This study used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021, calculated the premature deaths for diabetes by sex, provinces, and subtypes from 1990 to 2021. We explored the temporal trend of premature mortality using the average annual percent change (AAPC) for different sexes, provinces, and subtypes from 1990 to 2021. Furthermore, we predicted premature mortality for diabetes through 2030 for China and its provinces according to the average annual change rate from 2010 to 2021. There was a first slow upward trend in premature mortality for diabetes from 0.5% in 1990 to 0.6% in 2004, and then a decline until 2021 with premature mortality of 0.4%. By 2030, only Fujian (30.3%) will achieve the desired level of reduction, with only seven provinces meeting the target for females and none for males. There is a large range in the degree of decline between inland and coastal regions, showing obvious geographic differences, and there should be a focus on balancing medical resources.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)after traumatic hemorrhagic shock.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study of 314 patients with traumatic hemorrhagic shock at Trauma Medicine Center,Peking University People's Hospital from De-cember 2012 to August 2021,including 152 male patients and 162 female patients,with a median age of 63.00(49.75-82.00)years.The demographic data,past medical history,injury assessment,vital signs,laboratory examination and other indicators of these patients during hospitalization were recorded.These patients were divided into two groups,ARDS group(n=89)and non-ARDS group(n=225)ac-cording to whether there was ARDS within 7 d of admission.Risk factors for ARDS were identified using Logistic regression.The C-statistic expressed as a percentage[area under curve(AUC)of the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve]was used to assess the discrimination of the model.Results:The incidence of ARDS after traumatic hemorrhagic shock was 28.34％.Finally,Logistic regression model showed that the independent risk factors of ARDS after traumatic hemorrhagic shock included male,histo-ry of coronary heart disease,high acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)score,road traffic accident and elevated troponin Ⅰ.The OR and 95％confidence intervals(CI)were 4.01(95％CI:1.75-9.20),5.22(95％CI:1.29-21.08),1.07(95％CI:1.02-1.57),2.53(95％CI:1.21-5.28),and 1.26(95％CI:1.02-1.57),respectively;the P values were 0.001,0.020,0.009,0.014,and 0.034,respectively.The ROC curve was used to analyze the value of each risk factor in predicting ARDS.It was found that the AUC for predicting ARDS after traumatic hemor-rhagic shock was 0.59(95％CI:0.51-0.68)formale,0.55(95％CI:0.46-0.64)for history of coronary heart disease,0.65(95％CI:0.57-0.73)for APACHE Ⅱ score,0.58(95％CI:0.50-0.67)for road traffic accident,and 0.73(95％CI:0.66-0.80)for elevated troponin Ⅰ,with an overall predictive value of 0.81(95％CI:0.74-0.88).Conclusion:The incidence of ARDS in pa-tients with traumatic hemorrhagic shock is high,and male,history of coronary heart disease,high APACHE Ⅱ score,road traffic accident and elevated troponin Ⅰ are independent risk factors for ARDS after traumatic hemorrhagic shock.Timely monitoring these indicators is conducive to early detection and treatment of ARDS after traumatic hemorrhagic shock.

Objective To investigate the association between asthma and IL-9 level,to provide reference for early prevention of asthma occurrence and improvement of asthma condition.Methods The data of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were collected from two genome-wide association studies (GWAS) related to asthma and IL-9.Forty-three SNP instrumental variables associated with IL-9 were screened to conduct the forward direction Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis with asthma as the outcome.The three SNP associ-ated with asthma served as the instrumental variables,the IL-9 level change served as the study outcome to conduct the reverse MR analysis.Heterogeneity was detected by using Cochran's Q test,and the pleiotropy was detected by using the MR-Egger regression method.The robustness of the results was tested by the a leave-one-out method.Results The Q-test showed that no heterogeneity existed (P=0.383,0.883),and the MR analysis of fixed-effects model was used.The IL-9 level increase led to that the asthma occurrence risk was increased by 17％ (OR=1.17,95％CI:1.02-1.34).The asthma occurrence led to the IL-9 level increase by 0.09 standard deviation (OR=1.09,95％CI:1.01-1.19).After removing SNP one by one,the MR analy-sis results were steady.The MR-Egger regression method did not find the pleiotropy of instrumental variables (P=0.995,0.129).Conclusion There are bidirectional gene association between the IL-9 level change and asthma occurrence risk.

Objective:To investigate the impact of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) level on major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause mortality in the Kailuan Study cohort undergoing revascularization.Methods:This is a prospective cohort study, with participants from the Kailuan Study cohort who participated in physical examinations from 2006 to 2020 and received revascularization therapy for the first time. According to the level of non-HDL-C, the study subjects were divided into 3 groups:<2.6 mmol/L group, 2.6-<3.4 mmol/L group, and≥3.4 mmol/L group. Annual follow-up was performed, and the endpoint events were MACCE and all-cause mortality. Cox proportional regression model was implemented to estimate the impact on MACCE and all-cause mortality associated with the different non-HDL-C groups. The partial distributed risk model was used to analyze the impact of different non-HDL-C levels on MACCE event subtypes, and death was regarded as a competitive event. The restricted cubic spline regression model was used to explore the dose-response relationship between non-HDL-C level and all-cause mortality, MACCE and its subtypes.Results:A total of 2 252 subjects were enrolled in the study, including 2 019 males (89.65%), aged (62.8±8.3) years, the follow-up time was 5.72 (3.18, 8.46) years. There were 384 cases(17.05%) of MACCE and 157 cases(6.97%) of all-cause mortality. Compared with patients with non-HDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L, patients with non-HDL-C<2.6 mmol/L were associated with a 38% reduced risk of MACCE after revascularization [ HR=0.62(95% CI: 0.48-0.80)]. Every 1 mmol/L decrease in non-HDL-C was associated with a 20% reduction in the risk of MACCE [ HR=0.80(95% CI: 0.73-0.88)]. The results of restricted cubic spline also showed that non-HDL-C levels after revascularization therapy were positively correlated with MACCE events (overall association P<0.001, non-linear association P=0.808). For all-cause mortality, compared to the non-HDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L group, the HR for all-cause mortality after revascularization in non-HDL-C<2.6 mmol/L group was 0.67(95% CI: 0.46-1.01). Every 1 mmol/L decrease in non-HDL-C was associated with a 15% reduction in the risk of all-cause mortality [ HR=0.85(95% CI: 0.73-0.99)]. The restricted cubic spline results showed a linear association between non-HDL-C levels after revascularization therapy and the risk of all-cause mortality (overall association P=0.039, non-linear association P=0.174). Conclusion:The decrease in non-HDL-C levels after revascularization were significantly associated with a reduced risk of MACCE and all-cause mortality.

Objective:To analyze the status and influencing factors of empathy fatigue in hospice nurses based on ABC-X model (A: stressor event; B:resources available to a family; C: family sperceptions of the stressor; X: likelihood of crisis), so as to provide a reliable basis for developing comprehensive intervention strategies.Methods:A total of 325 nurses engaged in hospice care in China from April 2022 to June 2022 were selected by convenient sampling method. The influencing factors of empathy fatigue of hospice care nurses were analyzed by ABC-X model (working environment, resilience and coping style). The hospice care nurses were investigated by self-made general questionnaire, Chinese version of Empathy Fatigue Scale, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, Coping Style Resilience Scale and Nursing Work Environment Scale. The statistical analysis was performed by SPSS.26.0 statistical software.Results:There were 316 females and 9 males with age of (33.0 ± 7.9) years old. The total score of empathy fatigue in 325 hospice nurses was (91.16 ± 9.60) points, the scores of empathy satisfaction, ocupational burnout and secondary traumatic stress were (31.35 ± 6.01), (28.43 ± 5.86), (31.38 ± 5.76) points respectively. The scores of positive coping style, negative coping style, psychological resilience and nursing working environment were (37.46 ± 5.69), (21.28 ± 6.90), (89.84 ± 16.46), (117.13 ± 19.95) points respectively. The negative predictive factor for empathy satisfaction among nurses with the professional title of palliative care ( t=-4.22, P<0.05), and the positive predictive factors for simple coping strategies, psychological resilience, and nursing work environment ( t=4.52, 3.05, 9.03, all P<0.05), could explain 56.7% of the total variation. Psychological resilience, simplified coping strategies, nursing work environment were negative predictive factors for occupational burnout among hospice nurses ( t=-6.93, -3.54, -2.51, all P<0.05), while work nature was a positive predictive factor ( t=2.36, P<0.05), which could explain 49.4% of the total variation. Simplified coping strategies, psychological resilience, and nursing work environment were all negative predictors of secondary traumatic stress in hospice nurses ( t=-5.40, -3.25, -5.95, all P<0.05), which could explain 48.8% of the total variation. Conclusions:Based on the ABC-X model, it is found that the empathic fatigue of hospice nurses is mainly affected by the nursing work environment, mental resilience and coping styles. It is necessary for nursing managers to actively take measures to improve the working environment and coping styles of nurses, enhance their mental resilience and reduce their empathic fatigue.
