AIM:To compare the effect of AT TORBI 709M and Tecnis ZMT intraocular lenses on astigmatism correction in patients with corneal astigmatism at 3 mo after operation based on the standard astigmatism vector analysis.METHODS: This was a retrospective case-control study. The clinical data of 69 patients(69 eyes)with corneal astigmatism who underwent phacoemulsification and implantation of toric intraocular lens(IOL)from June 2021 to December 2021 in Day Surgery Center of Xi'an No.1 Hospital was analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups. In group one, 38 cases(38 eyes)were implanted with AT TORBI 709M, and 31 patients(31 eyes)with Tecnis ZMT in group two. The axial length, preoperative astigmatism and axis, and the degree of intraocular lens were recorded. The uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCDVA), best corrected distance visual acuity(BCDVA), diopter, residual astigmatism and axis were recorded preoperatively and at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo postoperatively. The postoperative surgical indicators, including spherical equivalent(SE), target induced astigmatism vector(TIA), surgically induced astigmatism vector(SIA), magnitude of error(ME), absolute value of angle of error(|AE|), absolute value of difference vector(|DV|), correction index(CI), and index of success(IOS)were evaluated by the standard astigmatism vector analysis.RESULTS:Postoperative UCDVA and BCDVA were significantly improved(all P<0.001), and there were statistically significant differences compared to preoperative UCDVA and BCDVA(all P<0.001). While, there was no significant difference in UCDVA and BCDVA between the two groups(P=0.275, 0.124). The standard astigmatism vector analysis showed that a good astigmatism correction was achieved in both AT TORBI 709M group and Tecnis ZMT group, and both |DV| and IOS were close to 0(P=0.329, 0.288). The CI of the AT TORBI 709M group was closer to 1, indicating a better astigmatism correction, while the CI of the Tecnis ZMT group was higher than 1, suggesting an overcorrection of astigmatism. However, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant(P=0.193). The mean residual astigmatism at 3 mo postoperatively was -0.11±0.91 D in the AT TORBI 709M group and -0.46±0.76 D in the Tecnis ZMT group, respectively, showing no statistically significance difference(t=1.732, P=0.088).CONCLUSION:Both the flat loop AT TORBI 709M and the double C-loop Tecnis ZMT intraocular lenses can effectively improve postoperative visual acuity in patients with regular corneal astigmatism, showing good rotational stability and comparable correction abilities for both astigmatism with the rule and against-the-rule astigmatism.

Objective The purpose of this study was to explore a suitable method to model no-reflow phenomenon following ischemic stroke and to evaluate perfusion decrease from multiple perspectives.Methods Laser scatter contrast imaging and two-photon live imaging were used to compare transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice and perfusion alterations in BALB/c mice with 1 or 1.5 h of ischemia.Several imaging techniques including laser scatter contrast imaging,low and higher magnification images of perfused brain slices and two-photon microscopy to monitor erythrocyte flow rate and flux were used to assess in vivo dynamics as well as whole brain sections and microvasculature for decreased cerebral perfusion after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion.Infarct size and behavioral deficits were assessed with microtubule-associated protein 2 staining and behavioral scoring.Results In C57BL/6 mice,most capillaries in the middle cerebral artery region remained flowing during ischemia,whereas most capillaries were blocked in BALB/c mice.In addition,cortical perfusion at 24 h of recanalization was significantly reduced to 76.1%of baseline following 1.5 h of ischemia in BALB/c mice(P=0.046 compared with the sham group),whereas for it was reduced to 79.9%following 1h of ischemia which was not significantly different from the sham group(P=0.299).Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in BALB/c mice for 1.5 h resulted in a reduction in whole-brain perfusion to 75.1%(P＜0.001 compared with the sham group),and erythrocyte flow rate assessed by two-photon live-imaging of erythrocyte flow on the cortical surface of the middle cerebral artery basin was reduced to 50.3%of baseline levels at 24 h of recanalization(P=0.010 compared with the sham group),and erythrocyte flux decreased to 38.9%of baseline levels(P= 0.010 compared with the sham group);high-magnification imaging of sections assessed an approximately 76%reduction in the length of capillaries with perfusion(P=0.0001 compared with the sham group),and a reduction in the fraction of the total volume occupied by perfused capillaries by an approximately 76%reduction(P＜0.001 compared with the sham-operated group).Microtubule-associated protein 2 staining suggested that transient middle cerebral artery occlusion for 1.5 h in BALB/c mice resulted in infarcts that accounted for approximately 36%of the total cerebral area and behavioral scores elevated to 9,suggesting behavioral deficits.Conclusion Transient ischemia in BALB/c mice for 1.5 h resulted in a significant decrease in cerebral perfusion as well as capillary no-reflow and thus can model the no-reflow phenomenon following ischemic stroke.The combination of laser scatter contrast imaging,low magnification and higher magnification images of perfused brain slices,and two-photon microscopy live imaging allows for a multifaceted assessment of perfusion changes.

Methamphetamine(METH)is highly addictive and neurotoxic,which causes cognitive and memory dysfunction in abusers.The harm of METH lies not only in its own toxicity,but also in the high physical and mental dependence of drug addicts,often causing mental disorders and violent behavior,bringing great safety risks to society.Non-coding RNA(ncRNA)does not encode proteins and is an important factor in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.Studies have shown that ncRNA plays an important regulatory role in methamphetamine-induced addiction and neurotoxicity,but the specific mechanism is unclear.This article reviews the current research progress of ncRNA in regulating METH-induced addiction and neurotoxicity to provide a reference for ncRNA as a forensic identification index and potential therapeutic target for METH abusers.

Objective:To explore the current situation and influencing factors of quality of life of septic patients in intensive care unit (ICU) after discharge, and to provide theoretical basis for clinical early psychological intervention and continuity of care.Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. The septic patients who were hospitalized in the department of critical care medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University and discharged with improvement from January 1 to December 31, 2022 were selected as the research objects. The demographic information, basic diseases, infection site, vital signs at ICU admission, severity scores of the condition within 24 hours after ICU admission, various biochemical indexes, treatment process, and prognostic indexes of all the patients were recorded. All patients were assessed by questionnaire at 3 months of discharge using the 36-item short-form health survey scale (SF-36 scale), the activities of daily living scale (ADL scale), and the Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA scale). Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the quality of life of septic patients after discharge from the hospital.Results:A total of 200 septic patients were discharged with improvement and followed up at 3 months of discharge, of which 150 completed the questionnaire. Of the 150 patients, 57 had sepsis and 93 had septic shock. The total SF-36 scale score of septic patients at 3 months of discharge was 81.4±23.0, and the scores of dimensions were, in descending order, role-emotional (83.4±23.0), mental health (82.9±23.6), bodily pain (82.8±23.3), vitality (81.6±23.2), physical function (81.4±23.5), general health (81.1±23.3), role-physical (79.5±27.0), and social function (78.8±25.2). There was no statistically significant difference in the total SF-36 scale score between the patients with sepsis and septic shock (82.6±22.0 vs. 80.7±23.6, P > 0.05). Incorporating the statistically significant indicators from linear univariate analysis into multiple linear regression analysis, and the results showed that the factors influencing the quality of life of septic patients at 3 months after discharge included ADL scale score at 3 months after discharge [ β= 0.741, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.606 to 0.791, P < 0.001], length of ICU stay ( β= -0.209, 95% CI was -0.733 to -0.208, P = 0.001), duration of mechanical ventilation ( β= 0.147, 95% CI was 0.122 to 0.978, P = 0.012), total dosage of norepinephrine ( β= -0.111, 95% CI was -0.044 to -0.002, P = 0.028), mean arterial pressure (MAP) at ICU admission ( β= -0.102, 95% CI was -0.203 to -0.007, P = 0.036) and body weight ( β= 0.097, 95% CI was 0.005 to 0.345, P = 0.044). Conclusions:The quality of life of patients with sepsis at 3 months after discharge is at a moderately high level. The influencing factors of the quality of life of patients with sepsis at 3 months after discharge include the ADL scale score at 3 months after discharge, the length of ICU stay, the duration of mechanical ventilation, the total dosage of norepinephrine, MAP at ICU admission and body weight, and healthcare professionals should enhance the treatment and care of the patients during their hospitalization based on the above influencing factors, and pay attention to early psychological intervention and continued care for such patients.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of lower eyelid blepharoplasty combined with micro-autologous fat transplantation (MAFT) in the rejuvenation of the infraorbital regions.Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with lower eyelid pouch and tear trough treated with lower eyelid blepharoplasty combined with MAFT in the Department of Plastic Surgery of Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from March 2020 to March 2022. Patients seeked medical attention due to lower eyelid pouch and tear trough, with or without skin laxity, and some patients had varying degrees of midface depression. After preoperative examination and evaluation of the patient’s infraorbital area and midfacial depression, appropriate individualized plans were developed.The patient underwent lower eyelid blepharoplasty by transconjunctival approach combined with tear trough MAFT. For patients with low or depressed midface, midface MAFT was also performed, and for patients with skin laxity, skin removal surgery was performed simultaneously. Complications were recorded after the operation. Preoperative and postoperative photos of more than 6 months were taken with the same postion and delivered to the same doctor to grade the patient’s Barton classification (0-3 grades, with higher grade indicating more obvious tear trough deformity). The improvement of tear trough deformity after surgery was assessed, and the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) score was also assessed. The patients evaluated their improvement using the patients aesthetic improvement scale (PAIS) score (GAIS and PAIS are both 1-5 points, with higher scores indicating more significant postoperative improvement). Normal distribution metric data was represented by Mean±SD, and count data was represented by frequency and/or percentage; skewed distribution metric data was represented by M ( Q1, Q3), and compared by rank sum test. Results:A total of 69 patients were enrolled, including 9 males and 60 females, aged 25-45 years, with an average age of 36.7 years. Among them, 35 patients had midfacial depression, and 11 patients had skin laxity. (0.37±0.07) ml (0.2-0.6 ml) of micro-autologous fat was injected into the orbicularis oculi muscle on each side; (0.18±0.06) ml (0.1-0.2 ml) of micro-autologous fat was injected into the subcutaneous layer on each side; (3.80±0.98) ml (3-5 ml) of micro-autologous fat was injected into the deep medial cheek fat compartment and pyriform aperture fat compartment on each side. No serious complications occurred after the surgery. Postoperative follow-up lasted for 6-13 months, with an average of 8.7 months. The patient’s lower eyelid pouch, tear trough deformity, and depression in the midface have all improved, presenting a youthful and smooth appearance from the infraorbital area to the midface. The skin texture in the lower eyelid area had also improved. At the last follow-up, the Barton classification of the lacrimal groove decreased compared with that before surgery, and the difference was statistically significant [grade 0 (0, 1) vs. grade 2 (1, 2), Z=-7.62, P<0.001]. At the last follow-up, the PAIS score of 69 patients was 5 points in 49 cases (71%) and 4 points in 20 cases (29%); doctor’s GAIS score was 5 points in 38 cases (55%), 4 points in 27 cases (39%), and 3 points in 4 cases (6%) . Conclusion:For those patients with aging status of infraorbital region, like lower eyelid pouch and tear trough deformities, the combination of lower eyelid blepharoplasty through the transconjunctival approach and MAFT can achieve good therapeutic effects. This method is safe with a short recovery time.

Objective To perform genetic analysis in a family line of a pregnant couple with autosomal reces-sive non-syndromic deafness in order to identify its possible genetic etiology and provide prenatal diagnosis.Methods Whole-exome sequencing(WES)was used to analyze the genes of the proband,and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the suspected pathogenic loci.Prenatal genetic diagnosis was performed after amniotic fluid collection at 18 weeks of pregnancy.Results Autosomal recessive deafness type 3 related gene MYO15A c.10419_10423delCAGCT/c.10294_10308delCCTTGCATCCTTGCC compound heterozygous variant was found in the wife.A compound heterozygous variant of autosomal recessive deafness type 77-related gene LOXHD1:c.6388C＞T/ex-on 33-38 del.Maternal MYO15A c.10294_10308del CCTTGCATCCTTGCC heterozygous variant were detected in the husband and paternal LOXHD1 exon 33-38 del heterozygous variant were detected in the fetus.At the same time,the paternal CDH23 c.6693delT heterozygous mutation and the maternal PCDH15 c.5048_5051dupAGAA heterozygous mutation were detected in the fetus.These two heterozygous mutations lead to the possibility of the fe-tus suffering from ID/F Usher syndrome.Conclusion The deafness of the couple is caused by two different deaf gene mutations,and the probability of the fetus having the same deafness as the couple is very low.However,the fetus has a high possibility of having deafness caused by two gene mutations.Therefore,deafness caused by two gene mutations should be paid attention to in the prenatal diagnosis of families with both deaf parents.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of psoriasis and status quo of medical care for patients in county areas of China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional investigation. Based on the “Qianxian Wuyin” Project (a national project for upgrating ability for psoriasis care at county level), an online questionnaire survey was conducted in the dermatology departments of 459 county hospitals in 404 pilot administrative counties across China from February to June 2023. The questionnaire included demographic information of patients (gender, ethnicity, age, place of residence, education, marital status), and clinical characteristics of psoriasis (disease course, type, comorbidities, body surface area (BSA) and previous treatment. The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) were applied for assessing the quality of life and disease severity, and completed by patients or guardian and doctors, respectively.Results:A total of 16 935 patients completed the questionnaire. The age of patients was 1-102(44.17±11.58)years, and 71.0% (12 036/16 935) were 30-59 years old. The ratio of male to female was 2.21∶1; 24.3%(4 117/16 935) of patients had high school education; there were 9 940 patients(58.7%) with previous or current smoking and/or alcohol use; 42.8%(7 218/16 855) of patients had a disease course of 1-5 years. There were 15 630 patients(92.3%) with DLQI≥10, 8 346 patients(49.7%) with PASI≥10, 15 017 patients(89.2%) with BSA≥10%. The plaque type was the most common disease type ( n=14 965, 88.7%), and spotting type ranked the second ( n=1 141, 6.8%). The most common initial site was the trunk ( n=12 309, 72.9%). Among the comorbidities, hypertension was the most common one ( n=1 681, 10.0%). There were 7 650 reports of treatment response to conventional topical drug therapy and 3 112 reports of treatment response to systemic drug therapy, with 6 269 (81.9%) and 2 493 (80.1%) reporting poor or no response, respectively. Conclusions:The survey shows that in the county areas of China, the majority of psoriasis patients are severe patients with short course of disease, plaque type is the most common type, and hypertension is the most common comorbidity; and the conventional treatment is less effective for most patients.
