Objective: To explore the relationship between visual acuity and physical fitness of university freshmen, so as to provide reference for myopia prevention and control for freshmen. Methods: From October to November 2022, 2 160 college freshman without majoring in public safety administration, selected from Guangxi Police College in 2022 by using the stratified cluster random sampling method, were reviewed for the results of visual acuity test and physical fitness scores. The physical fitness indices were evaluated by using the Z scores of physical fitness test scores, and the strength of association between the level of physical fitness index and myopia was analyzed by using Logistic regression model. Results: Among 2 160 college freshman without majoring in public safety administration, 917 (42.5%) students were diagnosed screening myopia, including 66 (3.1%) cases of high myopia, 383 (17.7%) cases of moderate myopia and 468 (21.7%) cases of mild myopia. The differences in the distribution of visual acuity tests among students with different physical fitness indices, body mass index, and gender were statistically significant ( Z/H=54.50, 49.53, 15.51, P <0.01). Low level and low middle level physical fitness indices were associated with screening myopia among freshmen[ OR (95% CI )=2.81(1.93-4.08),1.87(1.38-2.54)], and low level physical fitness indexes were associated with high myopia [ OR (95% CI )=7.22(2.33-22.32)] ( P <0.01). Conclusions Screening myopia among college freshman without majoring in public safety administration is related to physical fitness, and low level and low middle level physical fitness index are risk factors for myopia. Improving the level of physical fitness might be effective in preventing myopia.

AIM:To analyze the characteristics and correlation of phacoemulsification parameters and anterior segment parameters in cataract patients with different blood glucose levels.METHODS:A total of 45 type 2 diabetic cataract patients(45 eyes)treated in our hospital from March 2023 to April 2024 were stratified into two groups based on glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)levels: group A: HbA1c <7%(n=18)and group B: 7%≤HbA1c<8.5%(n=27); a total of 94 age-matched age-related cataract patients(94 eyes)were enrolled as the control group(group C). All underwent phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. Anterior segment parameters, including corneal, lens and anterior chamber measurements, were recorded. Correlations between phacoemulsification parameters and anterior segment parameters were analyzed, and differences among groups were compared.RESULTS: In groups A and B, effective phacoemulsification time(EPT)negatively correlated with corneal endothelial cell density(CECD)(r=-0.315, P=0.035). Average phacoemulsification time(APT)positively correlated with the anterior corneal surface radius of curvature(Rm; r=0.402, P=0.006)and negatively correlated with the flat axis meridian curvature(K1), steep axis meridian curvature(K2), mean curvature(Km)of the anterior corneal surface, and lens density at 6 mm zones(PDZ3; all P<0.05). Average phacoemulsification energy(AVE)positively correlated with mean lens density(LD-mean), lens density at 2 mm zones(PDZ1), lens density at 4 mm zones(PDZ2), and PDZ3(all P<0.05), and negatively with pupil diameter(r=-0.385, P=0.009). In the group C, EPT showed a positive correlation with Pentacam nucleus staging(PNS)density grade, PDZ1, PDZ2, and PDZ3(all P<0.05). A positive correlation was observed between AVE and PNS classification(r=0.246, P=0.018). Conversely, AVE exhibited a negative correlation with CECD(r=-0.245, P=0.018). EPT in groups A and B was higher than that in the group C(P<0.05). Both EPT and APT in the group B were higher than those in the group A(P<0.05). In diabetic cataract patients, CECD, corneal density(CD), and posterior corneal surface height positively correlated with diabetes duration(P<0.05). Posterior corneal surface K1 and Rm positively correlated with 7%≤HbA1c<8.5%(P<0.05). Total corneal astigmatism negatively correlated with HbA1c, 2-hour post-breakfast blood glucose(2hPBG), and fasting insulin(FINS; P<0.05). CD and lens thickness(LT)positively correlated with FINS(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification parameters and blood glucose-related indices exhibited varying degrees of correlation with anterior segment parameters in cataract patients with different blood glucose levels. EPT in diabetic cataract patients was higher than that in age-related cataract patients, while EPT and APT in diabetic cataract patients with poor glycemic control were higher than those with good glycemic control.

Aim To investigate the targeting mechanism of miR-23b on PINKl/Parkin pathway in transdifferentiation of NRK-52E cellsinduced by TGF-β1, and to elucidate the intervention mechanism of Qingshen granules drug-containing serum on NRK-52E cell transdifferentiation. Methods Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography ( UPLC ) fingerprinting method was used to analyze Qingshen granules. The NRK-52E transdifferentiation model induced by TGF-β1 was constructed. The NRK-52E cells were divided into simulated no-load control group, miR-23b-5p simulated group, inhibitor no-load control group, and miR-23b-5p inhibitor group, after transfection with siRNA, and the effect of miR-23b-5p on PINK1 expression was ob-served. The NRK-52E cells were then divided into normal group, TGF-(31 group, Qingshen granule group, miR-23 b-mimic group, miR-23 b-mimic group, and miR-23b-mimic + Qingshen granule group. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Pinkl, Parkin, LC3 n, Beclin-1, P62 and a-SMA proteins, and RT- PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-23 b-5p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1 and a-SMA mRNA in NRK- 52E cells. Dual-Luciferase Reporter gene experiment was used to detect the targeting relationship between miR-23b-5p and PINKL Results UPLC fingerprinting method found 11 active components in Qingshen granules. After overexpression of miR-23b-5p, the expression of PINkl mRNA significantly increased (P < 0. 05). And after silencing of miR-23 b-5 p expression, the expression of PINkl mRNA also significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 ). Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay showed that Rno-miR-23b-5p could significantly down- regulate the luciferase activity of Rno-PINKl-WT (P < 0. 05 ), but could not down-regulate the luciferase activity of mutant Rno-PINKl -mut ( P > 0. 05 ). The experimental results showed that the expressions of miR- 23b-5p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1, LC3 II and LC3 II/ I ratio in TGF-β1 group were significantly lower than those in normal group, but the expressions of P62 and a-SMA were significantly higher than those in normal group ( P <0.05). The expressions of miR-23 b-5 p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1, LC3 II and LC3 11/ I ratio in Qingshen granule group and miR-23 b-mimic group were significantly higher than those in TGF-β1 group, and the expressions of P62 and a-SMA were significantly lower than those in TGF-β1 group (P < 0. 05 ). The performance of miR-23 b-mimic + Qingshen granule group was better than that of miR-23 b-mimic group (P < 0. 05 ). Conclusions Qingshen granules can up- regulate the expression of miR-23b-5p in NRK-52E cellsand inhibit the transdifferentiation process of NRK- 52E cells by enhancing the mitochondrial autophagy activity mediated by PINKl/Parkin pathway.

Objective To explore the role of pulmonary surfactant(PS)combined with budesonide in improving oxygenation and clinical outcomes of neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods The present study is a historically controlled trial.Infants with ARDS requiring mechanical ventilation and PS replacement therapy were collected from the neonatal unit of Southwest Medical University.Those from January 2022 to November 2022 were set as intervention group(PS+ budesonid,n=35),treated with intratracheal instillation of a mixed suspension of budesonide(0.25 mg/kg)and PS(200 mg/kg),and continuous budesonide nebulization(0.25 mg/kg,twice per day)until withdrawal,then compared with a historical cohort,who just received intratracheal instillation of PS(200 mg/kg)(January 2020-December 2021,PS group,n=35).Baseline data such as gender,mode of delivery,1 min and 5 min Apgar score,birth weight,gestational age,time of onset,and cause of onset were recorded in both groups.The oxygenation and clinical outcomes of infants were compared between the two groups,including:(1)Arterial blood gas analysis indicators,such as partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2)and oxygenation index(OI)before treatment and at 6,12 and 24 hours of treatment;(2)Clinical observation and evaluation indicators,such as the time to withdrawal,duration of oxygen supplementation,length of stay,improvement of the radiological images of the lungs at 72 h of treatment,and repeated PS use;(3)Blood chemistry indicators,such as white blood cell(WBC),neutrocyte(NEU),procalcitonin(PCT)before treatment and at 3 and 7 days of treatment;and(4)Observation indicators of complications,weight growth,and mortality outcomes,such as the incidences of intracranial hemorrhage,gastrointestinal hemorrhage,neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC),and hyperglycemia,weight growth,and fatality rate.Results The differences in baseline data between the two groups were not statistically different(P＞0.05).The levels of PaO2 of the two groups were increased after treatment for different time periods,while the levels of OI were decreased(P＜0.001),and the levels of above indexes changed more significantly in PS+budesonide group than those in PS group(P＜0.05).The time to withdrawal,duration of oxygen supplementation,and length of stay in PS+budesonide group were shorter than those in PS group;the radiological images of the lungs showed that the pulmonary inflammation absorption was significantly better in PS+ budesonide group than that in PS group,while no significant difference between the two groups of infants with repeated PS use.The NEU was significantly higher in PS+budesonide group than in PS group at 3 d and 7 d of treatment(P＜0.001);and at 3 days of treatment,the PCT levels were significantly lower in PS+budesonide group than that in PS group(P＜0.05).The incidences of intracranial hemorrhage,gastrointestinal hemorrhage,NEC,hyperglycemia,weight growth,and fatality rate were not significantly different between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The use of budesonide in addition to surfactant may improve the oxygenation of neonates with ARDS,improve the inflammatory infiltrates in lungs,shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation and oxygen supplementation,and without short-term complications associated with budesonide use.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the use status and development trend of proton pump inhibitors(PPIs) in 33 hospitals in Wuhan, Hubei Province after the implementation of the national centralized drug procurement(NCDP) policy, and to provide reference for promoting the subsequent rational use of NCDP drugs and improving related policies. METHODS To make statistics and analysis of purchasing amount of PPIs, defined daily dose system(DDDs), defined daily dose consumption(DDDc) and utilization rate of 33 hospitals in Wuhan in 2019 and 2022. RESULTS After the implementation of the NCDP policy, the total purchasing amount of PPIs decreased by 53.6%, DDDs decreased by 15.4%, DDDc decreased by 45.2%, and the utilization rate of PPIs injectable dosage forms decreased by 12.6%. After NCDP, the highest growth rate of oral dosage forms was omeprazole(5.7%), followed by rabeprazole(5.0%), while injectable dosage forms showed a significant difference in utilization rate, with a significant decline in NCDP varieties and a significant increase in non-NCDP varieties. The overall NCDP utilization rate of PPIs in Wuhan was 64.9%, with little difference among hospitals of different grades. CONCLUSION The NCDP policy achieves the purpose of reducing the drug cost of patients and improving the accessibility of drugs, and is more optimized in the selection of dosage forms, which is in line with the policy expectations overall; but the quantity and price of PPIs in Wuhan decreased after NCDP, and highlighted a certain tendency in the selection of varieties. In the future, we still need to optimize measures to guide clinical priority in the selection of NCDP drugs, to ensure and improve the implementation of NCDP policy.
