Objective:To analyze the risk factors of postoperative vitreous hemorrhage (PVH) after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for vitreous hemorrhage (VH) secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO).Methods:A retrospective case-control study. A total of 195 RVO patients (195 eyes) with VH were first treated with PPV from November 2015 to December 2021 were included in this study. There were 102 males (102 eyes) and 93 females (93 eyes), with an age of (62.93±9.78) years. The patients were divided into PVH group (17 patients, 8.72%) and non-PVH group (178 patients, 91.28%) according to the occurrence of PVH. The time of occurrence of PVH was (140.33±130.85) days after PPV. All eyes were performed 23G or 25G systematic PPV by the same doctor. During the operation, different types of intraocular tamponade and intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor or triamcinolone acetonide after operation were selected according to the severity of retinopathy. The follow-up time was (9.45±6.68) months. The baseline systemic parameters, ocular parameters and intraoperative parameters affecting the occurrence of PVH were analyzed. Baseline systemic parameters included sex, age, diabetes mellitus and hypertension; ocular parameters included RVO type, lens status, VH course, preoperative best corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure; intraoperative parameters included cataract phacoemulsification, removal of internal limiting membrane, type of intraocular tamponade, type of intravitreal injection drug at the end of operation, etc. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and Cox univariate and multivariate regression analysis were performed to analyze the risk factors of PVH after PPV in RVO with VH patients.Results:In PVH group, the number of patients with diabetes was more than that in the non-PVH group, and the course of diabetes was longer, and differences were statistically significant. There were significant differences in RVO type, lens status and type of intraocular tamponade. Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that the combination with diabetes [odds ratio ( OR)=2.724, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.006-7.374, P=0.049], duration of diabetes ( OR=1.071, 95% CI 1.013-1.134, P=0.016), central retinal vein occlusion ( OR=4.387, 95% CI 1.421-13.546, P=0.010), intraocular lens ( OR=3.493, 95% CI 1.229-9.925, P=0.019), and intraocular gas tamponade ( OR=3.640, 95% CI 1.365-9.702, P=0.010) were associated with PVH. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that intraocular gas tamponade was independent risk factor for PVH. Conclusion:Intraocular gas tamponade can increase the risk of PVH after PPV in patients with VH secondary to RVO.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic evaluation process and the effectiveness and safety of intracavitary therapy for pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 38 patients admitted to Beijing Shijitan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from March 2019 to February 2022. Combined with the patient′s symptoms, PCS was diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography venography (CTV), and venography. The ovarian vein was embolized with controllable spring coil and polydocanol foam sclerosing agent. The patients were followed up 1, 3 and 6 months after operation.Results:The total surgical success rate of 38 patients was 100%, and the incidence of complications was 5.3%(2/38); Spring coils (2.8±0.3)per person; The dosage of hardener was (7.0±2.1)ml/person. The improvement rate of patient symptoms was 97.4%(37/38); After 1, 3, and 6 months of surgery, color Doppler ultrasound was reexamined and no recanalization was observed in the embolized ovarian veins; The diameter of the parauterine vein was (2.8±0.5)mm, which was significantly lower than the preoperative (7.5±1.9)mm ( P<0.05); The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score was significantly lower than the preoperative score [(2.12±1.87)points vs (7.58±0.82)points, P<0.001]. Conclusions:Process based assessment is helpful in identifying and diagnosing PCS patients who urgently need treatment; Endovascular treatment based on embolization of ovarian vein with controllable spring coil and foam sclerosing agent is minimally invasive, safe and effective.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of lower extremity three dimensional CT venography (CTV) and lower extremity ascending phlebography in evaluating recurrent varicose veins.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 235 patients with unilateral recurrent varicose veins who were treated at the Department of Vascular Surgery,Beijing Shijitan Hospital,Capital Medical University, between January 2015 and December 2020.There were 112 males and 123 females, with an age of (62.5±11.4)years (range:24 to 75 years).Patients were stratified into two groups based on preoperative imaging examination:the CTV group (utilizing lower extremity venous ultrasound+lower extremity CTV) and the control group (employing lower extremity venous ultrasound+lower extremity ascending phlebography).The two groups were matched in a 1∶1 ratio using propensity score matching, resulting in 43 cases per group.Comparative analyses between the groups at the one-year postoperative follow-up were performed using independent sample t tests, Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, χ2 tests, and linear regression analysis. Results:One year post-surgery,the CTV group exhibited a lower venous clinical severity score (VCSS) compared to the control group( M(IQR),3.0(4.3) vs.4.0(5.8), Z=-2.038, P=0.040).Additionally, the chronic venous insufficiency patients′ quality of life questionnaire (CIVIQ-20) scores were significantly higher in the CTV group than in the control group (89.0(8.0) vs.82.5(17.0), Z=-2.627, P=0.010).Patients in the CTV group also experienced a shorter ulcer healing time compared to the control group (4.0(4.0) weeks vs.12.0(7.0) weeks, Z=-3.217, P<0.01).Both groups showed no clinically symptomatic recurrent varicose veins or ulcers.However, they exhibited ultrasound-detectable varicose vein recurrence, with no statistically significant difference ( χ2=0.453, P=0.500).The number of diseased vessels requiring management based on ultrasound supplemented by CTV was 16, while the number supplemented by ascending phlebography was 7,with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=4.800, P=0.030).Linear regression analysis demonstrated that clinical-etiology-anatomy-pathology clinical grading and the preoperative imaging examination method exerted independent influences on VCSS and CIVIQ-20 during the one-year postoperative assessment. Conclusions:CTV-assisted ultrasound enables a direct and comprehensive evaluation and localization of diseased veins in patients with recurrent varicose veins.The utilization of lower extremity vein ultrasound combined with CTV-guided management of lower extremity vessels in minimally invasive treatment significantly improves patient prognosis, surpassing the assessment provided by ascending phlebography.

6.Research progress of metabolomics in diabetic retinopathy
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2022;40(1):93-96
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the serious complications of diabetes, and its complex pathogenesis has not been completely clarified yet.Metabolic changes are closely related to phenotypes and metabolomics analysis can indicate the biochemical status of cells, tissues or organs.With the renewal of metabolomics technology and the improvement of detection sensitivity, more differential metabolites have been detected.Therefore, metabolomics has gradually become a powerful tool to explore the pathogenesis of DR and the therapeutic potential of drugs for DR.Metabolomics study in DR is still in its infancy, which mainly takes vitreous humor, aqueous humor and plasma as samples with the pentose phosphate pathway, arginine and proline pathway and ascorbic acidic pathway as main research pathways.Further research is necessary to explore the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of DR, and to determine its longitudinal association with the disease.Metabolomics studies related to the animal model of DR and the vitreous humor, aqueous humor and plasma of DR patients were reviewed in this article.

Objective:To understand the common viral infection among the surveillance cases of fever respiratory syndrome (FRS) in nine provinces in China.Methods:The research data were obtained from nine provinces (Anhui, Beijing, Guangdong, Hebei, Hunan, Jilin, Shandong, Shaanxi and Xinjiang) in the "Infectious Disease Surveillance Technology Platform Information Management System" of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention from January 2009 to June 2021. Finally, 8 243 FRS cases with nucleic acid detection results of eight viruses [human influenza virus (HIFV), human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV), human adenovirus (HAdV), human parainfluenza virus (HPIV), human rhinovirus (HRV), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), human coronavirus (HCoV) and human Boca virus (HBoV)] were included in the study. The χ 2 test/Fisher exact probability method was used to analyze the difference of virus detection rate in different age groups, regions and seasons. Results The M ( Q1, Q3) age of 8 243 FRS cases was 4 (1, 18) years old, and 56.56% (4 662 cases) were children under 5 years old. Males accounted for 58.1% (4 792 cases) of all cases. All cases were from outpatient/emergency department (2 043 cases) and inpatient department (6 200 cases). The virus detection rates of FRS cases from high to low were HRSV, HIFV, HPIV, HRV, HAdV, HMPV, HCoV and HBoV. Two or more viruses were detected simultaneously in 524 cases, accounting for 15.66% of virus-positive cases. The difference of the virus detection rate in different age groups was statistically significant (all P values<0.05), and the virus detection rate in children<5 years old was higher (49.96%). The positive rate of any virus in south China was higher than that in north China ( P<0.001). The virus-positive FRS cases were detected throughout the year. The detection rate of HRSV was higher in autumn and winter. The detection rate of HIFV was higher in winter. The detection rate of HMPV was higher in winter and spring. The detection rates of HPIV, HRV, HCoV and HBoV were higher in summer and autumn, while there was no significant difference in the detection rate of HAdV in different seasons. Compared with 2009-2019, the detection rate of any virus in 2020-2021 decreased from 41.37% to 37.86%. The detection rate of HIFV decreased sharply from 10.62% to 1.37%. The detection rate of HPIV decreased from 8.24% to 5.88%. The detection rate of HRV and HBoV increased from 5.43% and 1.79% to 9.67% and 3.19%, respectively. Conclusion:HRSV and HIFV infections are more common among FRS cases in nine provinces in China from 2009 to 2021, and the epidemiological characteristics of eight common respiratory viruses vary in different age groups, regions and seasons.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of microcystic elongated fragmented (MELF) and clinicopathological features of patients with low grade endometrial endometrioid carcinoma, and to analyze its impact on prognosis.Methods:The clinical pathological data of 512 cases with low grade endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma were collected. The MELF invasive pattern in all of the sections were reappraised. The correlations between MELF pattern and clinicopathological features were analyzed by chi-square test, and the independent risk factor of lymph node metastasis were evaluated by Logistic multivariate regression analysis. Survival curves was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method, and Log-rank test was used to compare progression free survival (PFS) between patients with or without MELF pattern. Disease progression-related multivariate analysis was carried out by Cox proportional hazards model.Results:MELF pattern was observed in 12.9% (66/512) low grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma. It was significantly associated with cervical stroma invasion, more than half of the depth of myometrial invasion, lymph node metastasis and vessel invasion ( P<0.05). In addition, MELF pattern was an independent risk factor for lymph node metastasis ( P<0.05). The 5-year PFS of patients with and without MELF pattern were 95.0% and 96.0% respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The patients with MELF pattern are more likely accompany with cervical stroma and deeper myometrium invasion, vessel invasion, and lymph node metastasis, and it is an independent risk factor of lymph node metastasis. However, MELF pattern has no significant impact on prognosis of patients with endometrioid carcinoma.
