AIM:To observe the defocus state and myopia control in myopic children wearing single-vision, defocus, and orthokeratology lenses using multispectral refraction topography(MRT).METHODS: A total of 279 myopic patients aged 8-14 years old, with a spherical equivalent(SE)from -7.00 to -0.50 D, treated at the Chengdu Aier Eye Hospital from June 2022 to December 2023. Patients who volunteered for the study were assigned to three groups. A total of 94 cases were provided with single-vision spectacle lenses(SVL group), 90 cases received individualized ocular refraction customization(IORC group), and 95 cases received orthokeratology lenses(OK group). Simultaneously, the three groups were further categorized into low(-3.00 to -0.50 D), moderate(-6.00 to -3.25 D), and high myopia(-7.00 to -6.25 D)groups according to different SE. MRT was used to measure and compare the defocus changes of the retina in supperior, inferior, nasal, and temporal quadrants(RDV-S, RDV-I, RDV-N, RDV-T), and three angles of field of view, including 0-15°, 15°-30°, and 30°-45°(RDV-15, RDV-30, RDV-45)in the three groups(the data divide for the connected regions is grouped to the latter group). A one-way analysis of variance was used for intergroup comparisons. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were used to analyze the factors related to changes in the axial length(AL)at 1 a after intervention.RESULTS:There were significant differences in 1-year SE and AL growth among patients in the SVL, IORC, and OK groups before and after intervention(P<0.001). The 1-year SE and the difference of AL growth in patients with low myopia was significantly different among SVL, IORC, and OK groups(P<0.001); however, there was no significant difference between the IORC and OK groups(P>0.05); there were significant differences in the SE and AL growth changes between the OK group and the IORC and SVL groups in moderate myopia(P<0.001); and there were significant differences between the OK group and the IORC and SVL groups in SE and AL growth of high myopia group after wearing lenses for 1 a(P<0.001), while there were no significant differences between the IORC and SVL groups(P>0.05). In addition, there were significant differences in the relative peripheral refractive errors(RPRE)of 4 quadrants and 3 eccentric regions among the three groups of patients in different degrees of myopia groups(P<0.001). Pair-wise comparison of the growth difference of eccentric D-RDV-15 in low myopia group after wearing lenses for 1 a showed significant differences between the SVL, IORC, and OK groups(P<0.001), but no significant differences between the IORC and OK groups(P>0.05). The angle of field of view D-RDV-30 in moderate myopia subgroups was statistically different between the SVL group and the IORC and OK groups after wearing lenses for 1 a(P<0.001), while the IORC and OK groups showed no significant differences(P>0.05); the angle of field of view D-RDV-15 in high myopia subgroups was statistically different between the OK group and the IORC and SVL groups after wearing lenses for 1 a(P<0.001), but there was no significant difference between the IORC and SVL groups(P>0.05). Univariate and multivariate linear regression model analysis showed that the changes in D-TRVD, D-RDV-45, D-RDV-N, and D-RDV-I correlated with the increase in the difference in 1 a AL.CONCLUSION: MRT can be used to guide the clinical control of myopia. Myopia development is related to the peripheral retinal defocus state, and the difference of defocus quantity in the inferior nasal side at 30°-45° eccentricity may be a factor regulating the rapid progression of myopia.

The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement aims to enhance the quality of reporting for randomized controlled trial (RCT) by providing a minimum item checklist.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of Xiaoyao San (XYS), a herbal medicine formula, on exercise capacity and liver mitochondrial metabolomics in a rat model of depression induced by chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS). METHODS: A total of 24 male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group (C), CUMS control group (M), Venlafaxine positive treatment group (V), and XYS treatment group (X). Depressive behaviour and exercise capacity of rats were assessed by body weight, sugar-water preference test, open field test, pole test, and rotarod test. The liver mitochondria metabolomics were analyzed by using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. TCMSP database and GeneCards database were used to screen XYS for potential targets for depression, and GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were performed. RESULTS: Compared with C group, rats in M group showed significantly lower body weight, sugar water preference rate, number of crossing and rearing in the open field test, climbing down time in the pole test, and retention time on the rotarod test (P < 0.01). The above behaviors and exercise capacity indices were significantly modulated in rats in V and X groups compared with M group (P < 0.05, 0.01). Compared with C group, a total of 18 different metabolites were changed in the liver mitochondria of rats in M group. Nine different metabolites and six metabolic pathways were regulated in the liver mitochondria of rats in X group compared with M group. The results of network pharmacology showed that 88 intersecting targets for depression and XYS were obtained, among which 15 key targets such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF were predicted to be the main differential targets for the treatment of depression. Additionally, a total of 1 553 GO signaling pathways and 181 KEGG signaling pathways were identified, and the main biological pathways were AGE-RAGE signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, and calcium signaling pathway. CONCLUSION XYS treatment could improve depressive symptoms, enhance exercise capacity, positively regulate the changes of mitochondrial metabolites and improve energy metabolism in the liver of depressed rats. These findings suggest that XYS exerts antidepressant effects through multi-target and multi-pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma(PPARγ)gene silen-cing in human bone marrow stromal cells(HS-5)on hematopoietic function in bone marrow-suppressed mice,and to explore the potential mechanisms involved.Methods A bone marrow-suppressed mouse model was established by whole-body X-ray irradi-ation.Two hours after modeling,the mice were randomly divided into three groups:experimental group(intravenous injection of PPARγ RNAi-interfered HS-5 cells through the tail vein),control group(intravenous injection of PPARγ RNAi-uninterfered HS-5 cells through the tail vein),and blank group(intravenous injection of an equal amount of saline through the tail vein),with 5 mice in each group.Peripheral blood routine tests were performed before,24 hours after,1 week after,and 2 weeks after radio-therapy.In vitro osteogenic and adipogenic induction was performed in cells,and the cells were divided into experimental group(PPARγ RNAi-interfered HS-5 cells),control group(PPARγ-uninterfered HS-5 cells),and blank group(HS-5 cells without os-teogenic/adipogenic induction).Osteogenic/adipogenic staining was observed.The effects of PPARγ gene-silenced HS-5 cells on mouse bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells(HSCs)were detected by CCK-8 proliferation assay.The groups included experi-mental group(PPARγ RNAi-interfered HS-5 cells were co-cultured with mouse HSCs after 3 days of osteogenic induction dif-ferentiation),positive control group(HS-5 cells treated with 50 μmol/L PPARγ inhibitor were co-cultured with mouse HSCs af-ter 3 days of osteogenic induction differentiation),negative control group(PPARγ RNAi-uninterfered HS-5 cells were co-cul-tured with mouse HSCs after 3 days of osteogenic induction differentiation),and blank group(Mouse HSCs were cultured alone without co-culturing with HS-5 cells).Results After radiotherapy,the hematological parameters of mice in each group showed a decreasing trend initially,and then increased.One week after radiotherapy,there were significant differences in platelet and white blood cell levels among the three groups(experimental group＞control group＞blank group,all P＜0.05).Two weeks after radiotherapy,there were significant differences in the percentage of adipocyte vacuole area among the three groups(experi-mental group＜control group＜blank group,all P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between hematological parameters and PPARγ expression levels(all P＜0.05),as well as a negative correlation between hematological parameters and the percentage of adipocyte vacuole area(all P＜0.05).After in vitro osteogenic/adipogenic induction differenti-ation,compared to the control group,the experimental group showed a significantly lower proportion of orange-red cells and a significantly higher proportion of red calcium nodules.After 3 days of osteogenic induction differentiation,the experimental group,positive control group,and negative control group of human bone marrow stromal cells were co-cultured with mouse HSCs,while HSCs were solely cultured in the blank group.The results showed that after 24 h,48 h and 72 h of co-culture,the A values of mouse HSC cells in the experimental group and positive control group were higher than those in the negative control group and blank group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Silencing of the PPARγ gene in HS-5 cells implanted into bone marrow-sup-pressed mice contributes to enhanced hematopoietic function in mice.After interference and silencing of the PPARγ gene,the os-teogenic differentiation ability of HS-5 cells is enhanced,while the adipogenic differentiation ability is weakened.Furthermore,osteogenic-induced HS-5 cells can further enhance the proliferation capacity of mouse HSCs.

【Objective】 To explore the expression of USP9X in platelets and its effect on platelet function. 【Methods】 The expression of USP9X in human and mouse was evaluated by PCR and Western blot. Platelets from young and old mice were separated and prepared, and the expression of USP9X was detected. USP9X inhibitos were used to assess the regulation of USP9X in platelet function, including aggregation, ATP release and spreading. Platelet lysates were collected in different time points to evaluate the change of phosphorylation of Akt in USP9X inhibitors treated platelets. 【Results】 Both human and mouse platelets expressed USP9X. Compared to the young mice, the old mice showed significantly enhanced expression of USP9X(P<0.05). To assess the effect of USP9X on platelet function, USP9X inhibitor was used to pre-incubate platelets for 30 min and platelet function were examined later. Results showed that USP9X inhibitor significantly decreased platelet activation including aggregation, ATP release and spreading(P<0.05). Compared to the control group, the inhibitor treated group showed a significant decrease in the spreading area after 45 minutes. The Western blot results showed a significant decrease in Akt phosphorylation levels of platelets in the USP9X inhibitor treated group. 【Conclusion】 Both human and mouse platelet express USP9X, and inhibition of USP9X decreased platelet function including aggregation, ATP release and spreading. USP9X can also influence the phosphorylation of Akt. The inhibitor of USP9X may become a potential therapeutic target for thrombosis intervention.

Maternal depression can cause physical and mental harm to herself. This condition can lead to poor physical development in early offspring (newborns). However, the effect of maternal depression on the long-term physical development of offspring remains controversial. Studies have shown that offspring exposed to maternal depression in developed countries are at an increased risk of obesity. In view of the high incidence of maternal depression and childhood obesity in China, this article reviews the correlation between maternal depression and offspring obesity, aiming to provide insights for relevant research in China and offer references for the prevention and intervention of maternal depression and childhood obesity.
