AIM: To investigate the effect of residual astigmatism on visual quality after phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in patients with age-related cataract, and to evaluate the astigmatism inclusivity of regional refractive IOL.METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 62 cases(73 eyes)of age-related cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive IOL(Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15)implantation from July 2020 to March 2022 at the ophthalmology department of our hospital were collected. They were grouped according to residual astigmatism at 6 mo postoperatively, taking 35 cases(40 eyes)with residual astigmatism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D as the experimental group, and 27 cases(33 eyes)with residual astigmatism ≤0.75 D as the control group. Visual acuity, defocus curves, objective visual acuity [wavefront aberrations, Strehl ratio(SR), modulation transfer functions(MTF)], subjective visual acuity(national eye institute visual function questionnaire-25), patients' satisfaction, and spectacle independence were compared between the two groups at 6 mo postoperatively.RESULTS:There was a difference in the preoperative astigmatism and the number of postoperative 6 mo residual astigmatism between the two groups(P<0.01). At 6 mo postoperatively, there was no difference in uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity, objective visual quality, subjective visual quality, satisfaction, and spectacle independence between the two groups(P>0.05). The defocus curves showed that there was no difference in visual acuity between the two groups at all points in the +2.00 to -4.00 D defocus range of the additional spherical equivalent(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL was able to accommodate regular astigmatism of 1.50 D.

Objective To investigate the effect of residual corneal astigmatism on visual acuity after regional refrac-tive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted.The medical records and follow-up data of 73 eyes of 57 cataract patients who underwent ultrasound emulsification cataract extraction combined with LENTIS Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL implantation in the Ophthalmology Department of the Hebei General Hospital from June 2020 to March 2022 were collected.These patients were grouped according to postoperative residual corneal astigmatism:32 patients(40 eyes)with a residual corneal astigmatism of 0.75(exclusive)-1.50 D were taken as the experimental group,and 25 patients(33 eyes)with a residual corneal astigmatism ≤0.75 D were taken as the control group.The uncor-rected distance visual acuity(5 m),uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(80 cm),uncorrected near visual acuity(40 cm),out-of-focus curve,objective visual quality,subjective visual quality,satisfaction degree and lens removal rate of pa-tients in the two groups were recorded 6 months postoperatively.Results The postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.10(0.00,0.22),the uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.00(0.00,0.10),and the uncorrected near visual acuity(logMAR)was 0.20(0.10,0.30)and 0.20(0.10,0.20)in the experimental and control groups,with no statistically significant differences(all P＞0.05).The postoperative out-of-focus curves showed that the distance visual acuity of patients with additional spherical equivalent refraction ranged from+2.00 D to-4.00 D in the two groups had no statistically significant difference(all P＞0.05).There were statistically significant differences in to-tal aberration,coma aberration,modulation transfer function and Strehl ratio in the objective visual quality of patients after surgery(all P＜0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference in the total higher-order aberration,spherical ab-erration and cloverleaf aberration(all P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the subjective visual quality,satisfaction degree and lens removal rate in the two groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Residual corneal astig-matism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D after LENTIS Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL implantation has no effect on higher-order aberration,spherical aberration,and cloverleaf aberration in subjective and objective visual quality,and has an impact on total aberra-tion,coma aberration,modulation transfer function and Strehl ratio in objective visual quality.

The optimal operation room cooling source can be selected to save energy in the whole hospital life cycle ac-cording to special cooling load characteristics of specialized hospital.This paper demonstrates the energy-saving performance of the system of water-cooled and air-cooled dual cooling source based on theoretical analysis.Taking the operation room of Zhongs-han Ophthalmic Center,Sun Yat-sen University as an example,the energy consumption data is analyzed under different season and different chilled water temperature of the transformed dual cooling source operation room.It is proposed that utilizing central-ized water-cooling system may not be more energy saving than the that of individual air-cooling system during transitional season or winter,and the vertical temperature rise and cold loss of chilled water should be considered as well,providing a reference for the dual cooling source in domestic specialized operation rooms.

Objective To investigate whether 3D-guided cone-shaped segmentectomy can achieve comparable long-term outcomes with lobectomy for deep early-stage lung cancer with diameter≤2 cm. Methods We retrospectively screened patients with deep early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with diameter≤2 cm who underwent lobectomy or segmentectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2012 to 2018. All pulmonary segmentectomy was performed using 3D-guided cone-shaped segmentectomy with segment or subsegment as the resection unit. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed by Cox proportional hazard regression model. The patients who underwent segmentectomy and lobectomy were matched 1∶1 by propensity-score matching analysis. The oncological outcomes of two groups were compared. Results Our cohort was divided into a segmentectomy group (n=222) and a lobectomy group (n=127). The age, total nodule size, solid component size and proportion of pure solid nodule in the lobectomy group were significantly higher than those in the segmentectomy group. The median follow-up time was 49 months. Surgical margins were negative in all patients. The local recurrence rate of segmentectomy was 0.45%. The disease-free survival (DFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate of patients in the segmentectomy group were significantly better than those in the lobectomy group (5-year DFS rate: 98.64% vs. 89.77%, P<0.001; 5-year OS rate: 99.55% vs. 92.10%, P<0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the differences between two groups were not significant [DFS rate: HR=0.52. 95%CI (0.11, 2.59), P=0.427; OS rate: HR=0.08. 95%CI (0.00, 3.24), P=0.179] after adjusting for other factors. After propensity score matching, 77 patients were preserved in both segmentectomy group and lobectomy group, with the mean nodule size of 1.44 cm and 1.49 cm and the mean consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) of 0.46 and 0.52, respectively. There was no statistical difference in DFS rate (P=0.640) or OS rate (P=0.310) between the two groups. Conclusion 3D-guided cone-shaped segmentectomy can be an acceptable treatment for low-grade malignant NSCLC deep in lung parenchyma with diameter≤2 cm, and its oncology effect is not inferior to lobectomy.

Objective To analyze the relationship between serum exosomal microRNA(miR)-7-5p expression levels in children with asthma and their short-term prognosis.Methods A total of 132 asthmatic children(asthma group)and 30 healthy children(control group)from Tangshan Vocational & Technical College Affiliated Hospital between October 2021 and May 2023 were included as study subjects.These asthmatic children were categorized into a good prognosis group(n=91)and a poor prognosis group(n=41)based on their Childhood Asthma Control Test results.The levels of allergy history,forced vital capacity(FVC),fractional exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO),and miR-7-5p level among groups were compared,and logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify risk factors for the short-term prognosis of asthmatic children.The Kappa test,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,and mean absolute error(MAE)value were used to evaluate indicators in predicting short-term prognosis in children with asthma.Results The level of miR-7-5p in the asthma group[0.53(0.49,0.64)]was lower than that in the control group[1.03(0.97,1.10)],with significant difference(Z=8.548,P＜0.001).The poor prognosis group exhibited a higher proportion of allergy history(68.29％)and FeNO[38(36,41)ppb]levels,and lower FVC[1.86(1.84,2.05)L]and miR-7-5p levels[0.47(0.43,0.52)]compared to the good prognosis group[46.15％,35(30,40)ppb,1.94(1.87,2.06)L,0.60(0.50,0.68)],and the differences were significant(x2/Z=2.854～6.450,all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a history of allergies(OR=3.388,95％CI:1.328～8.643,P=0.011)and high FeNO levels(OR=1.161,95％CI:1.064～1.267,P=0.001)were independent risk factors,while a high level of miR-7-5p(OR=0.090,95％CI:0.033～0.248,P＜0.001)was an independent protective factor for the short-term prognosis of asthmatic children.The area under the ROC curve for miR-7-5p+allergy history+FeNO in predicting the short-term prognosis of asthmatic children was 0.851,which was higher than that for miR-7-5p alone(0.851,Z=2.097,P=0.036)and allergy history+FeNO(0.726,Z=4.239,P＜0.001).The Kappa value for miR-7-5p+allergy history+FeNO was 0.67,which was higher than miR-7-5p(0.44)and allergy history+FeNO(0.41).The MAE for miR-7-5p+allergy history+FeNO was 0.022,which was lower than miR-7-5p alone(0.067)and the combination of allergy history+FeNO(0.035).Conclusion Elevated level of miR-7-5p in the serum exosomes of asthmatic children is linked to a favorable short-term prognosis.The combination of miR-7-5p,allergy history,and FeNO may have certain value in evaluating the short-term prognosis of asthmatic children.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate whether the addition of pemetrexed is effective in improving progression-free survival (PFS) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–mutated patients with or without concomitant alterations. Materials and Methods: This multicenter clinical trial was conducted in China from June 15, 2018, to May 31, 2019. A total of 92 non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring EGFR-sensitive mutations were included and divided into concomitant and non-concomitant groups. Patients in each group were randomly treated with EGFR–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) monotherapy or EGFR-TKI combined with pemetrexed in a ratio of 1:1. PFS was recorded as the primary endpoint. Results: The overall median PFS of this cohort was 10.1 months. There were no significant differences in PFS between patients with and without concomitant and between patients received TKI monotherapy and TKI combined with pemetrexed (p=0.210 and p=0.085, respectively). Stratification analysis indicated that patients received TKI monotherapy had a significantly longer PFS in non-concomitant group than that in concomitant group (p=0.002). In concomitant group, patients received TKI combined with pemetrexed had a significantly longer PFS than patients received TKI monotherapy (p=0.013). Molecular dynamic analysis showed rapidly emerging EGFR T790M in patients received TKI monotherapy. EGFR mutation abundance decreased in patients received TKI combined chemotherapy, which supports better efficacy for a TKI combined chemotherapy as compared to TKI monotherapy. A good correlation between therapeutic efficacy and a change in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) status was found in 66% of patients, supporting the guiding role of ctDNA minimal residual disease (MRD) in NSCLC treatment. Conclusion EGFR-TKI monotherapy is applicable to EGFR-sensitive patients without concomitant alterations, while a TKI combined chemotherapy is applicable to EGFR-sensitive patients with concomitant alterations. CtDNA MRD may be a potential biomarker for predicting therapeutic efficacy.

Objective:To explore the impact of negation effect on color judgment of the color-word pairs and the impairment of cognitive inhibition function of the patients with schizophrenia (SCH) through embedding negation into the Stroop task.Methods:From January to December 2021, " Affirmative/ negative + color words" as the experimental materials, classical Stroop paradigm as the experimental paradigm, a mixed experimental design of 2 (groups: the SCH group vs the normal control group)×2(phrase polarity: affirmative phrases vs negative phrases)×2 (word-color congruence: consistency vs inconsistency) was designed to explore the inhibition function of negative phrases of the SCHs under bipolar negation conditions (Experiment 1) and multi-polar negation conditions (Experiment 2) respectively. The schizophrenic patients in Experiment 1(28 patients and 28 normal controls) and Experiment 2(30 patients and 30 normal controls) were sampled from the inpatients of Tangshan Kailuan Mental Health Center and Suzhou Guangji Hospital respectively, and the healthy controls were recruited from the community. SPSS 25.0 software was adopted as statistical analysis, and accuracy, response time of Stroop and the Stroop effect were analyzed by repeated measurement analysis of variance. Results:(1) The group main effects of response time were both significant in bipolar negation conditions(Experiment 1) ( F=49.22, P<0.001, ηp2=0.48) and multi-polar negation conditions (Experiment 2) ( F=37.58, P<0.001, ηp2=0.39). In bipolar negation (Experiment 1) conditions, as for the Stroop effect of response time, there was a significant interaction between the groups and polarities( F=4.42, P<0.05, ηp2=0.08), and there was a statistically significant difference between the affirmative Stroop effect (-0.137±0.522)and the negative Stroop effect(0.082±0.169) in the schizophrenia group( F=7.15, P<0.05, ηp2=0.12). In multi-polar negation conditions (Experiment 2), there was a marginal significant of the interaction between Stroop conditions and polarities in accuracy( F=3.81, P=0.056, ηp2=0.06). The accuracy under the word color consistency condition was higher than that under inconsistency condition((96.51±1.55)%, (90.00±2.54)%) ( F=5.15, P<0.05, ηp2=0.08). (3)In bipolar negation (Experiment 1) conditions, as for the accuracy, the interaction among groups, word color consistencies, and polarities was significant( F=6.66, P<0.05, ηp2=0.11). The interaction between word color consistencies and polarities was significant in the schizophrenia group( F=9.16, P<0.05, ηp2=0.15). In the normal group, the interaction between Stroop conditions and polarities was not significant( P>0.05). Conclusion:The impairment of cognitive inhibition function in schizophrenia is severe, which is reflected in negative processing; negation functions as cognitive inhibition, which is particularly prominent in bipolar negation.
