AIM:To analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.METHODS:We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey in December 2022 on all students of a university in Shaanxi Province, and the questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, mobile phone addiction, high myopia, and lifestyle. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.RESULTS:A total of 19 952 college students were included. The prevalence of high myopia was 7.31%. The rate of mobile phone addiction was 25.68%, and the mobile phone addiction score was 37.59±13.38. The incidence of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was higher than non-mobile phone addiction(P<0.001). After adjusting for socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyle, the risk of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was 1.274 times(95%CI:1.131-1.434)higher than non-mobile phone addiction. For each point increase of total mobile phone addiction score, withdrawal symptoms score, salience score, social comfort score, and mood changes score, the risk of high myopia among college students increased by 0.9%(95%CI:1.005-1.013), 2.0%(95%CI:1.010-1.030), 2.6%(95%CI:1.010-1.043), 4.8%(95%CI:1.030-1.066), and 3.3%(95%CI:1.014-1.052), respectively.CONCLUSION:Mobile phone addiction is significantly associated with the increased risk of high myopia among college students, and early intervention of mobile phone use may reduce the risk of high myopia among college students.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between the occurrence of cardiovascular events in rheumatoid arthritis（RA） and traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） syndrome. MethodsThe cross-sectional study selected 6713 RA patients from 122 centres nationwide， in which general information such as name， gender， age， height， body weight， and course of disease were collected by completing a questionnaire； patients were classified into eight types of syndrome according to the information of their four examinations，i.e. wind-dampness obstruction syndrome， cold-dampness obstruction syndrome， dampness-heat obstruction syndrome， phlegm-stasis obstruction syndrome， stasis-blood obstructing collateral syndrome， qi-blood deficiency syndrome， liver-kidney insufficiency syndrome， and qi-yin deficiency syndrome. According to the occurrence of cardiovascular events， they were divided into the occurrence group and the non-occurrence group， and the condition assessment data and laboratory examination indexes were recorded. The test of difference between groups was used to analyse the possible risk factors for the occurrence of RA cardiovascular events， and binary logistic regression was used to analyse the correlation between TCM syndromes and RA cardiovascular events. ResultsA total of 6713 RA patients were included， including 256 cases in occurrence group and 6457 in non-occurrence group. There was no statistically significant difference between groups in terms of height， gender， insomnia， appetite， white blood cell（WBC）， hemoglobin（HGB）， platelets（PLT）， rheumatoid factor（RF）， anti-cyclic peptide containing citrulline（CCP）， alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， γ-glutamyl transpeptidase（GGT）， urea creatinine（CREA）， and glucose（GLU）（P＞0.05）. The TCM syndromes between groups showed significant statistic differences（P＜0.05）. Patients in occurrence group had longer disease duration， heavier body weight， and older age； more severe conditions such as disease activity（DAS-28）， number of painful joints（TJC）， number of swollen joints（SJC）， health questionnaire scores（HAQ）， visual analog scores（VAS）， restlessness， and fatigue； higher blood sedimentation rate（ESR）， low-density lipoprotein（LDL-C）， triglyceride（TG）， total cholesterol（TC）， D-Dimer， and lower high-density lipoprotein（HDL-C）（P＜0.05）. The distribution of syndrome types showed that dampness-heat obstruction syndrome accounted for the largest proportion of patients in both groups and was higher in RA cardiovascular events. Logistic regression analysis showed that the occurrence of RA cardiovascular events was strongly associated with dampness-heat obstruction syndrome［OR=5.937， 95%CI （4.434， 7.949）， P＜0.001］. ConclusionThe occurrence of RA cardiovascular events were associated with TCM syndromes， and the probability of cardiovascular events in the RA patients with dampness-heat obstruction syndrome was 5.937 times higher than patients with other TCM syndromes.

Objective:To investigate the conversion of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) in the microenvironment of radiation-induced skin injuries to provide guidance for clinical applications.Methods:Based on a random number table, C57BL/6N mice were categorized into four groups: the blank control, negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups, with each group containing 25 mice. The backs of mice in the blank control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups were exposed to 15 Gy X-ray irradiation. Then, the mice in the negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups were injected subcutaneously with the SVF derived from B6/G-R mice. The survival of these mice was observed 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 d after the injection through fluorescence tracing and in vivo imaging. Accordingly, the clinical SVF injection regimens were optimized based on the experimental result of mice. Finally, local SVF injection was performed on different frequencies for patients in different wound conditions, with the efficacy being observed. Results:The fluorescence of SVF was observed from the tissue slices of the acute injury, chronic injury, and negative control groups 14 d post-injection. The result showed that the fluorescence intensity of SVF 1, 3, and 7 d post-injection was in the order of the negative control group > the acute injury group > the chronic injury group. The acute injury group ranked at the top and the chronic injury group remained at the bottom 14 d after the injection. The fluorescence of SVF in each group was barely detected 21 d after the injection. Compared to the negative control group, the acute injury group exhibited statistical differences only 14 d post-injection ( t = 4.11, P < 0.05), while the chronic injury group displayed statistical differences 1, 3, 7, and 14 d after the injection ( t = 3.88-5.74, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the acute injury group exhibited significantly higher fluorescence intensity of SVF than the chronic injury group ( t = 4.73-8.38, P < 0.05). The half-life of SVF for the negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups was 6.336, 6.014, and 2.163 d, respectively. As indicated by the application of SVF transplantation based on traditional surgical protocols in the clinical trial, SVF can significantly promote wound repair, with earlier SVF transplantation being more beneficial for wound healing. Conclusions:The conversion of SVF differs in the microenvironments of acute and chronic radiation-induced skin injuries. This can serve as an essential guide for the administration timing and injection frequency of SVF in clinical applications.

From the perspective of the physiological basis of liver and kidney sharing the common source in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),and by integrating the theory of kidney dominating bone,liver dominating tendon,and meridian sinew of TCM as well as the bone resorption and collapse theory,and non-uniform settlement theory and lower-limb musculoskeletal bowstring structure theory of modern orthopedics,the pathogenesis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)under the system of non-uniform settlement during bone resorption and multidimensional composite bowstring working in coordination with the theory of liver-kidney and muscle-bone was explored.The key to the TCM pathogenesis of ONFH lies in the deficiency of the liver and kidney,and then the imbalance of kidney yin-yang leads to the disruption of the dynamic balance of bone formation and bone resorption mediated by osteoblasts-osteoclasts,which manifests as the elevated level of bone metabolism and the enhancement of focal bone resorption in the femoral head,and then leads to the necrosis and collapse of the femoral head.It is considered that the kidney dominates bone,liver dominates tendon,and the tendon and bone together constitute the muscle-bone-joint dynamic and static system of the hip joint.The appearance of collapse destroys the originally balanced muscle-bone-joint system.Moreover,the failure of liver blood in the nourishment of muscles and tendons further exacerbates the imbalance of the soft tissues around the hip joint,accelerates the collapse of the muscle-bone-joint dynamic and static system,speeds up the process of femoral head collapse,and ultimately results in irreversible outcomes.Based on the above pathogenesis,the systematic integrative treatment of ONFH should be based on the TCM holistic concept,focuses on the focal improvement of internal and external blood circulation of the femoral head by various approaches,so as to rebuild the coordination of joint function.Moreover,attention should be paid to the physical constitution of the patients,and therapy of tonifying the kidney and regulating the liver can be used to restore the balance between osteogenesis and osteoblastogenesis,and to reconstruct the muscle-bone-joint system,so as to effectively delay or even prevent the occurrence of ONFH.

From an aqueous extract of the Angelica sinensis root head (guitou), nine pairs of lignanoid enantiomers [(+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-9], including three pairs of new structures [(+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-3] and two pairs of chiral separated enantiomers for the first time [(+)-/(-)-4 and (+)-/(-)-5], were isolated and chirally separated by column chromatography over different types of resin, normal and reversed phase silica gels, together with HPLC techniques using reversed phase and chiral columns. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic data analysis, theoretic calculation of electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The chiral separated new enantiomers named (+)-/(-)-angelignanins Q-T [(+)-/(-)-1-(+)-/(-)-4] and (+)-/(-)-daphneresinol [(+)-/(-)-5], respectively.

Objective To investigate the expression of serum Sestrin2 and Toll-like receptor 7(TLR7)in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis and their predictive value for heart failure.Methods A total of 86 patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis complicated with heart failure(complicated with heart failure group)and 86 patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis(uncomplicated with heart failure group)who were diagnosed and treated in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from February 2022 to May 2023 were studied.Another 86 patients who underwent health examinations were included as the control group.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method was applied to measure serum levels of Sestrin2 and TLR7.Color doppler echocardiography was applied to measure cardiac function related indicators:left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVEDD),and left ventricular end systolic diameter(LESD).The expression of Sestrin2 and TLR7 levels and cardiac function in three groups was analyzed.Pearson correlation was applied to analyze the relationship between serum levels of Sestrin2 and TLR7 and cardiac function related indicators in patients with heart failure.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum levels of Sestrin2 and TLR7 in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis complicated with heart failure.Results The serum levels of Sestrin2(11.59±3.31 ng/ml,16.13±3.62 ng/ml),TLR7(48.93±9.52 ng/ml,61.74±10.11 ng/ml),and cardiac function related indicators[LVEDD(53.28±5.76 mm,62.54±6.11 mm)and LESD(38.16±4.38 mm,48.15±5.02 mm)]were higher in uncomplicated heart failure group and complicated heart failure group than those in control group(7.11±2.34 ng/ml,40.12±10.16 ng/ml,44.86±5.02 mm,29.02±4.07 mm),with significant differences(qSestrin2=13.241,26.659,qTLR7=8.224,20.182,qLVEDD=13.824,29.028,qLESD=18.805,39.359,all P＜0.05),and those values in complicated with heart failure group were higher than those in uncomplicated with heart failure group,with significant differences(q=13.418,11.985,15.203,20.554,all P＜0.05).The LVEF(55.43％±6.62％,41.67％±5.84％)index in uncomplicated heart failure group and complicated heart failure group was lower than that in control group(62.75％±7.16％),with significant differences(q=10.344,29.789,all P＜0.05),and the index in complicated with heart failure group was lower than that in uncomplicated with heart failure group,with significant difference(q=19.455,P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum levels of Sestrin2 and TLR7 in patients with heart failure were negatively correlated with LVEF(r=-0.419,-0.467,all P＜0.05),and positively correlated with LVEDD and LESD(r=0.456,0.419;0.402,0.437,all P＜0.05).Sestrin2 was positively correlated with TLR7(r=0.641,P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum Sestrin2 combined TLR7 for predicting heart failure in severe pneumonia sepsis patients was 0.940,with sensitivity of 74.9％and specificity of 73.3％.Conclusion The serum levels of Sestrin2 and TLR7 in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis were elevated and may have good predictive value for patients with heart failure.

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.

An analytical method based on ultra high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution tandem mass spectrometry(UHPLC-HRMS/MS)and high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry(HPLC-TQ MS)was established to reveal the characteristics of various sulfur mustard analogs with different active thiol molecules in CWC Schedule 1.A.04.Firstly,the toxic agents were prepared by micro-directed synthesis,and then the differences of the reactivity and abundance of formed adducts between different sulfur mustards and glutathione(GSH),cysteine(Cys)and N-acetylcysteine(NAC)in incubation solution,plasma and cell were investigated,respectively.The results indicated that all target sulfur mustards could react with three kinds of thiol molecules.The content of Cys and sulfur mustard adducts in plasma was higher than that of GSH and sulfur mustard adducts,while NAC and sulfur mustard adducts might have fewer types of adducts due to low content or poor mass spectrometry response.Additionally,the content of GSH and sulfur mustard adducts in exposed cells was higher than that of Cys,which should be due to the significant difference in the content of thiol molecules in plasma and cells.
