Objective: To explore the association of screening myopia and sitting posture habits as well as screen viewing distance among primary school students, providing a scientific basis for myopia prevention and intervention among primary school students. Methods: From April to June 2024, a convenient sampling method was used to enroll 1 394 fourth grade students from four primary schools in a district of Beijing for vision examinations and questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were employed to analyze the relationship of screening myopia detection and sitting posture habits as well as viewing distance. Results: The screening myopia prevalence among primary school students was 63.8%. About 13.1% of students self reported poor sitting posture, and 47.1% selfreported a viewing distance of ≤20 cm. After adjusting for covariates including age, gender, school, sleep quality, parental myopia status, physical fitness level, daily high intensity physical activity, weekend outdoor activity time and types of after school services, Logistic regression analysis showed that students with poor sitting posture were more likely to have screening myopia than those with normal sitting posture ( OR =1.73,95% CI =1.03-2.92); students with a viewing distance of ≤20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia than those with a viewing distance of >20 cm( OR =1.32, 95% CI =1.02-1.71)( P <0.05). The association between sitting posture and screening myopia was more significant among boys( OR =2.00, 95% CI =1.03-3.88, P < 0.05 ). A multiplicative interaction was observed between sitting posture and viewing distance. Compared to primary school students with normal posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm, those with poor posture and a viewing distance of >20 cm were more likely to have screening myopia ( OR =1.82, 95% CI =1.12-2.96， P <0.05). Conclusions Both sitting posture habits and screen viewing distance are related to screening myopia in primary school students. Poor sitting posture poses a higher risk than screen distance, and the two factors exhibit an interactive effect on myopia risk.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with heart failure (HF) in Nanjing and explore the influencing factors. Methods A total of 773 COPD inpatients were selected from January 2021 to January 2024 in Nanjing Combined Hospital of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Nanjing Qixia District Hospital, Nanjing Lishui District People's Hospital, Nanjing Pukou District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Nanjing First Hospital., and were divided into 2 groups according to the presence or absence of combined HF. The general data and medical records of the two groups were compared, the clinical characteristics of COPD patients with HF were summarized, and the influencing factors of COPD patients with HF were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results Among the 242 patients (31.31%) with COPD had HF, chronic paroxysmal dyspnea was the most common first symptom, 169 patients (69.83%) had left heart failure, 63 patients (30.17%) were diagnosed as right heart failure or global heart failure , 17 patients (7.02%) had myocardial infarction. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of HF was 1.678 times and 1.691times higher in COPD groups ≥ 50 years old and male COPD groups than in < 50 years old and female groups, respectively; the risk of HF was 1.491 times higher in COPD groups engaged in physical work than in physical work groups; the risk of HF was 1.447 times and 1.580 times higher in COPD groups with hypertension and coronary heart disease than in COPD groups without hypertension and coronary heart disease, respectively; the risk of HF was 1.859 times higher in COPD groups smoking>400 vial/year than in COPD groups≤400 vial/ year; the risk of HF was 1.757 times higher in COPD groups with acute exacerbation frequency≥2 times/year than in COPD groups<2 times/year; the above differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Attention should be paid to elderly, male and heavy physical work group of COPD patients. Active treatment of hypertension and coronary heart disease, effective tobacco control and reduction of the frequency of acute exacerbation are effective ways to reduce the risk of HF in COPD patients in Nanjing.

Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Neck dissection(ND)is one of the main treatment methods for oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Although ND type is in con-stant improvement,but intraoperative peal-pull-push injury of the accessory nerve,muscle,muscle membrane,fascia and ligament induced shoulder syndrome(SS)is still a common postoperative complication,combined with the influence of radiochemotherapy,not only can cause pain,stiffness,numbness,limited dysfunction of shoulder neck and arm,but also may have serious impact on patient's life quality and phys-ical and mental health.At present,there is still a lack of a systematic evaluation and rehabilitation management program for postoperative SS of oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors.Based on the previous clinical practice and the current available evidence,refer to the relevant lit-erature at home and abroad,the experts in the field of maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation were invited to discuss,modify and reach a consenusus on the etiology,assessment diagnosis,differential diagnosis,rehabilitation strategy and prevention of SS,in order to provide clinical reference.

The clinicopathological data of 242 gastric cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy in 19 hospitals of the Chinese Laparoscopic Gastrointestinal Surgery Study Group-04 study, including 54 patients in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 32 patients in the First Hospital of Putian City, 32 patients in Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, 31 patients in Zhangzhou Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, 17 patients in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, 11 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University, 8 patients in Qinghai University Affiliated Hospital, 8 patients in Meizhou People′s Hospital, 7 patients in Fujian Provincial Hospital, 6 patients in Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University, 6 patients in Longyan First Hospital, 5 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, 5 patients in the First Hospital Affiliated to Army Medical University, 4 patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 4 patients in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, 4 patients in Beijing University Cancer Hospital, 3 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University, 3 patients in Guangdong Provincial People′s Hospital, 2 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University, from September 2016 to October 2017 were collected. There were 193 males and 49 females, aged 62(range, 23?74)years. Observation indicators: (1) age distribution, comorbidities and ACCI status of patients; (2) the grouping of ACCI and comparison of clinicopathological characteristics of patients in each group; (3) incidence of postoperative early complications and analysis of factors affecting postoperative early complications; (4) follow-up; (5) analysis of factors affecting the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of patients. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination or telephone interview to detect postoperative survival of patients up to December 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametric rank sum test. The X-Tile software (version 3.6.1) was used to analyze the best ACCI grouping threshold. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves. The Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. The Logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting postoperative early complications. The COX proportional hazard model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses of factors affecting the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of patients. Multivariate analysis used stepwise regression to include variables with P<0.05 in univariate analysis and variables clinically closely related to prognosis. Results:(1) Age distribution, comor-bidities and ACCI status of patients. Of the 242 patients, there were 28 cases with age <50 years, 68 cases with age of 50 to 59 years, 113 cases with age of 60 to 69 years, 33 cases with age of 70 to 79 years. There was 1 patient combined with mild liver disease, 1 patient combined with diabetes of end-organ damage, 2 patients combined with peripheral vascular diseases, 2 patients combined with peptic ulcer, 6 patients combined with congestive heart failure, 8 patients combined with chronic pulmonary diseases, 9 patients with diabetes without end-organ damage. The ACCI of 242 patients was 2 (range, 0-4). (2) The grouping of ACCI and comparison of clinicopathological characteristics of patients in each group. Results of X-Tile software analysis showed that ACCI=3 was the best grouping threshold. Of the 242 patients, 194 cases with ACCI <3 were set as the low ACCI group and 48 cases with ACCI ≥3 were set as the high ACCI group, respectively. Age, body mass index, cases with preoperative comorbidities, cases of American Society of Anesthesiologists classification as stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲ, tumor diameter, cases with tumor histological type as signet ring cell or poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and cases with tumor type as moderately or well differentiated adenocarcinoma, cases with tumor pathological T staging as stage T1, stage T2, stage T3, stage T4, chemotherapy cycles were (58±9)years, (22.6±2.9)kg/m 2, 31, 106, 85, 3, (4.0±1.9)cm, 104, 90, 16, 29, 72, 77, 6(4,6) in the low ACCI group, versus (70±4) years, (21.7±2.7)kg/m 2, 23, 14, 33, 1, (5.4±3.1)cm, 36, 12, 3, 4, 13, 28, 4(2,5) in the high ACCI group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=-14.37, 1.98, χ2=22.64, Z=-3.11, t=-2.91, χ2=7.22, Z=-2.21, -3.61, P<0.05). (3) Incidence of postoperative early complications and analysis of factors affecting postoperative early complications. Of the 242 patients, 33 cases had postoperative early complications, including 20 cases with local complications and 16 cases with systemic complica-tions. Some patients had multiple complications at the same time. Of the 20 patients with local complications, 12 cases had abdominal infection, 7 cases had anastomotic leakage, 2 cases had incision infection, 2 cases had abdominal hemorrhage, 2 cases had anastomotic hemorrhage and 1 case had lymphatic leakage. Of the 16 patients with systemic complications, 11 cases had pulmonary infection, 2 cases had arrhythmias, 2 cases had sepsis, 1 case had liver failure, 1 case had renal failure, 1 case had pulmonary embolism, 1 case had deep vein thrombosis, 1 case had urinary infection and 1 case had urine retention. Of the 33 cases with postoperative early complications, there were 3 cases with grade Ⅰ complications, 22 cases with grade Ⅱ complications, 5 cases with grade Ⅲa complications, 2 cases with grade Ⅲb complications and 1 case with grade Ⅳ complica-tions of Clavien-Dindo classification. Cases with postoperative early complications, cases with local complications, cases with systemic complications were 22, 13, 9 in the low ACCI group, versus 11, 7, 7 in the high ACCI group, respectively. There were significant differences in cases with postoperative early complications and cases with systemic complications between the two groups ( χ2=4.38, 4.66, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in cases with local complications between the two groups ( χ2=2.20, P>0.05). Results of Logistic regression analysis showed that ACCI was a related factor for postoperative early complications of gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy [ odds ratio=2.32, 95% confidence interval ( CI) as 1.04-5.21, P<0.05]. (4) Follow-up. All the 242 patients were followed up for 36(range,1?46)months. During the follow-up, 53 patients died and 13 patients survived with tumor. The 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of the 242 patients was 73.5%. The follow-up time, cases died and cases survived with tumor during follow-up, the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate were 36(range, 2-46)months, 29, 10, 80.0% for the low ACCI group, versus 35(range, 1-42)months, 24, 3, 47.4% for the high ACCI group. There was a significant difference in the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate between the two groups ( χ2=30.49, P<0.05). (5) Analysis of factors affecting the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of patients. Results of univariate analysis showed that preoperative comorbidities, ACCI, tumor diameter, histological type, vascular invasion, lymphatic invasion, neural invasion, tumor pathological TNM staging, postoperative early complications were related factors for postoperative 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy [ hazard ratio ( HR)=2.52, 3.64, 2.62, 0.47, 2.87, 1.90, 1.86, 21.77, 1.97, 95% CI as 1.52-4.17, 2.22-5.95, 1.54-4.46, 0.27-0.80, 1.76-4.70, 1.15-3.12, 1.10-3.14, 3.01-157.52, 1.11-3.50, P<0.05]. Results of multivariate analysis showed that ACCI, tumor pathological TNM staging, adjuvant chemotherapy were indepen-dent influencing factors for postoperative 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy ( HR=3.65, 11.00, 40.66, 0.39, 95% CI as 2.21-6.02, 1.40-86.73, 5.41-305.69, 0.22-0.68, P<0.05). Conclusions:ACCI is a related factor for post-operative early complications of gastric cancer patients undergoing laparos-copic radical gastrectomy. ACCI, tumor pathological TNM staging, adjuvant chemotherapy are indepen-dent influencing factors for postoperative 3-year recurrence-free survival rate of gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.

Objective: To diagnose a large family of patients with hereditary angioedema, and to study its inheritance pattern and gene locus. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out from August 2021 to February 2022 in a proband (female, 48 years old) and 12 family members who underwent medical history collection and laboratory examinations in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. The clinical data of members and non-affected members [including 7 males and 5 females, aged 12-78 (median 24) years old], were drawn a family map while confirming the diagnosis. Whole exome sequencing technology was used to detect the genetic sequence of the proband and to verify its family members to map the genetic pedigree of the mutation. Results: The inheritance pattern of the family was autosomal dominant, and 8 members of the family were diagnosed with hereditary angioedema by laboratory examination, including 7 cases of type I and 1 case of type Ⅱ. Whole exome sequencing analysis was performed on 2 patients with 2 phenotypes, and it was found that they both carried the same pathogenic mutation locus, which was c.890-2A>G. The family members were verified by next-generation sequencing, and it was found that all members of the family who had a history of edema contained this mutation site, while the younger brother of the proband who had no history of edema did not have this mutation. Conclusion: Both type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ phenotypes are present in this hereditary angioedema family, and the mutation of SERPING1 gene c.890-2A>G causes the onset of each patient in this family.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for open pancreatic necrosectomy (OPN), an effective treatment method for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) after the failure of percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD), in patients with SAP. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for 156 patients with SAP who underwent surgical intervention based on the step-up approach in The Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2018, and according to whether OPN was performed, the patients were divided into PCD group with 126 patients and PCD+OPN group with 30 patients. Related clinical data were collected, including age, sex, etiology, blood calcium on admission, white blood cell count on admission, whether CTSI score was ＞7, APACHE-Ⅱ score, Ranson score, presence or absence of peripancreatic fluid accumulation, presence or absence of infection, presence or absence of multiple organ failure (MOF), and whether PCD was performed at more than 1 week after admission. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups; a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictive factors for OPN. ResultsThe probability of OPN was 19.2% for SAP patients in the later stage. Compared with the PCD+OPN group, the PCD group had a significantly lower proportion of patients with MOF on admission ［27.0% (34/126) vs 70.0% (21/30), χ2=19.642, P＜0.01］ and a significantly higher proportion of patients undergoing PCD at less than 1 week after admission ［61.9% (78/126) vs 20.0% (6/30), χ2=17.121, P＜0.01］. MOF on admission (odds ratio ［OR］=5.343, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.832-15.583, P＜0.05), initial PCD performed at more than 1 week after admission (OR= 5.518, 95% CI: 1.742-17.477, P＜0.05), and infection on admission (OR=5.016, 95% CI: 1.322-19.378, P＜0.05) were independent risk factors for subsequent OPN in SAP patients. ConclusionSAP with MOF on admission, initial PCD performed at more than 1 week after admission, and SAP with infection on admission are independent risk factors for subsequent OPN in SAP patients undergoing PCD in the early stage based on the step-up approach. Timely identification of related risk factors helps to grasp the timing of OPN in clinical practice and improve the clinical prognosis of SAP patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological diagnosis and differential diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT).Methods:Thirty-two cases of IMT collected at the People′s Hospital of Jiangsu Province from May 2010 to May 2020 were evaluated for their clinical, histologic, immunohistochemical and genomic features, and relevant literature was reviewed.Results:There were 19 male and 13 female patients, with age ranging from 5 to 65 years (mean, 37 years). The tumors were located in the lung and mediastinum (10 cases), gastrointestinal tract and mesentery/omentum (12 cases), urinary bladder (5 cases), head and neck (3 cases), somatic soft tissue (1 case), and retroperitoneum (1 case). Four cases of epithelioid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma (EIMS) were all located intra-abdominally. Histologically, the tumor cells were myofibroblasts and fibroblasts arranged in predominantly fusiform pattern, with variably edematous to myxoid background or sclerotic collagenized stroma, and variably mixed chronic or acute inflammatory cells infiltration. EIMS were composed mainly of epithelioid tumor cells, with myxoid stroma and numerous neutrophils. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells expressed cytoplasmic ALK (25/32, 78%), whereas the four EIMS showed nuclear membrane ALK staining pattern. The tumor cells also expressed CKpan (8/19), SMA (24/32, 75%) and desmin (12/32, 38%); all four EIMS also showed strong positivity for desmin. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for ALK gene rearrangement showed split apart signals in 12 of 15 cases, most commonly with atypical signals. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed in three tumors and showed that one case of lower leg IMT harbored a novel CLIP2-ALK fusion, and two cases of EIMS harbored RANBP2-ALK fusion. Follow-up data were available in 29 patients. Twenty-two patients were alive with no evidence of tumor, four patients had tumor recurrences (three patients were treated with crizotinib and were alive with tumor), and three patients died of the disease (including two patients with EIMS).Conclusions:IMTs show a wide morphologic spectrum, and should be differentiated form a variety of benign or malignant tumors. Immunohistochemistry (ALKp80, ALKD5F3) and FISH (ALK break-apart probe) could assist the diagnosis of IMT, with NGS recommended for the atypical cases.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological and molecular features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of TFE3-rearranged epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE). Methods Two cases of TFE3-rearranged EHE arising from soft tissues, diagnosed by the Pathology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2013 to 2020 were observed. EnVision method was used for immunophenotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to test TFE3 gene rearrangements and WWTR1-CAMTA1 fusion gene,and next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to delineate the fusion transcripts.Results:Details of these two cases were as follows: case 1, male, 51 years old, with tumor in the right temporal region; case 2, female, 42 years old, with tumor in the right neck. The tumors showed progressive painless enlargement. Grossly, the tumor of case 1 was multinodular with unclear boundary and grayish red cut surface, while the tumor of case 2, originating from a vein, appeared as a firm, tan mass within vessel wall. Microscopically, both tumors showed moderate cellularity and were consisted of plump, epithelioid, or histiocytoid cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm and mild-to-moderate nuclear pleomorphism. Most of the tumor cells were arranged in solid or alveolar growth patterns, while some tumor cells showed intraluminal papillary growth pattern in case 1 and anastomosing vascular channels and extramedullary hematopoiesis in case 2. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells showed diffuse positivity for CD31, CD34, ERG, and TFE3. FISH revealed TFE3 break-apart signals in two cases, but WWTR1-CAMTA1 gene fusion was not detected. NGS identified YAP1 (exon1)-TFE3 (exon6) fusion gene in case 2. Clinical follow-up information was available in both cases for a follow-up period of 15 and 59 months respectively. Patient 1 had a relapse 22 months after surgery, and was currently alive with the tumor. Patient 2 remained disease-free.Conclusions:TFE3-rearranged EHE is a rare molecular subtype of EHE, with accompanying characteristic morphologic features. However the morphologic spectrum remains under-recognized, and more experience is needed. Immunohistochemical and molecular examinations are helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.

Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is the main cause of liver damage and even multiple organ failure after complex liver surgery.When liver ischemia reperfusion occurs,the non-coding RNAs in the liver tissue is dysregulated and part of the non-coding RNAs with abnormal expression is involved in HIRI regulation.Non-coding RNAs to may be the intervention target for reducing HIRI.This article summarized the types and related functions of non-coding RNAs,the role of different non-coding RNAs in HIRI,and the interconnections between various non-coding RNAs in HIRI.
