Congenital entropion, an abnormal condition in which the eyelids roll inward, with the eyelashes losing their normal angulation and tilting toward the eye, especially in the lower eyelids and inner canthus, often occurs in infants and young children. Congenital entropion may lead to corneal epithelial abrasion, inflammation and ulcer, which may affect the function of the eye if not treated in time. Early surgical intervention is helpful to the health of children's eyes. The purpose of surgery is to change the structure of eyelid and weaken the force of entropion, thus improving the symptoms and corneal astigmatism. At present, there are many surgical treatments for congenital entropion. In this paper, the advantages, disadvantages and indications of these treatments are analyzed and summarized, providing a reference for clinical practice.

Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics of 9 hypertension drug related gene polymorphisms in the population of essential hypertension(EH)in Xi'an area,providing an objective basis for personalized treatment.Methods A total of 306 EH patients who visited the Shaanxi Provincial Armed Police Force Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects.The PCR melting curve method was used to detect 9 hypertension drug related gene polymorphisms,their genotype and allele distribution frequency were analyzed,and the correlations of gene polymorphism among patients of different genders,ages,and hypertension grading groups were compared.Results Among 306 patients,the distribution frequencies of each gene were consistent with Hardy Weinberg equilibrium(x2=0.153～2.941,all P＞0.05).Mutation rates of various gene were as follows:SLCO1B1 c.388A＞G,ADRB1 c.1165G＞C,MTHFR C677T,ADD1 c.1378G＞T,CYP2D6 c.100C＞T,ACE I/D,CYP3A5 c.806-4288C＞T,SLCO1B1 c.521T＞C,AGTR1 c.1166A＞C and CYP2C9 c.1075A＞C were 77.29％,73.20％,56.54％,48.37％,50.82％,35.13％,29.41％,11.76％,7.68％and 3.43％,respectively,and CYP2C9 c.403C＞T had no mutation.Comparing with patients of different genders,the mutation rate of SLCO1B1 c.388A＞G genotype and allele mutations in male group were higher than those in the female group(x2=5.221,8.237),the mutation rate of CYP2D6 c.100C＞T genotype and allele in the female group were higher than those in the male group(x2=5.093,9.661),the mutation rate of ACE I/D allele in the male group was higher than that in the female group(x2=6.118,8.032),with significant differences(all P＜0.05).The mutation rates of CYP2C9 c.1075A＞C,SLCO1B1 c.388A＞G,CYP2D6 c.100C＞T genotypes and alleles in the middle-aged and young age group were higher than those in the elderly group,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=11.683,10.243;9.003,9.803;10.617,9.931,all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the comparison of other genotypes and alleles among different gender and age groups and in the frequency of genotype and allele mutations among different hypertension grading groups(x2=1.321～7.733,1.031～5.198,all P＞0.05).Conclusion The distribution of gene polymorphisms related to antihypertensive drugs in the Xi'an area was related to the gender and age of EH patients.Thus,the genotype testing of antihypertensive drugs may have important guiding significance for personalized medication treatment of EH patients.

Background and purpose:Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)is closely associated with drug efficacy and prognosis in urothelial carcinoma(UC).HER2 is a significant biomarker and therapeutic target in various tumors.In recent years,anti-HER2 antibody-drug conjugates have shown significant clinical efficacy in UC patients with HER2 overexpression.Therefore,an in-depth understanding of HER2 expression and its characteristics in Chinese UC patients is crucial to guide treatment decision-making,optimize treatment strategies and achieve personalized therapy.This study aimed to thoroughly investigate correlation of HER2 expression and clinicopathological characteristics in Chinese patients with UC.Methods:This study was a multicenter study that retrospectively included UC patients from urology departments of 8 tertiary hospitals in 5 geographical regions of China(North China,East China,South China,Central China and Northwest)whose tissue samples were collected from January 2023 to March 2024.Inclusion criteria:① age above 18 years;② UC diagnosed by histopathological or cytological examination;③ complete results of HER2 expression detection using immunohistochemistry(IHC)in the primary tumor site were required.Exclusion criteria:① diagnosed patients with tumors in other parts of the body;② physicians evaluated other situations that were not suitable for inclusion in this study.IHC results for HER2 expression and clinicopathological data were collected.HER2 expression was determined according to the criteria outlined in"Clinical pathological expert consensus on HER2 testing in urothelial carcinoma in China",with HER2 2+and 3+defined as HER2 overexpression.The HER2 expression and clinicopathological features were analyzed.This study was approved by the medical ethics committee of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center(ethical number:2301268-12)and was registered at China Clinical Trial Registry(registration number:ChiCTR2300069746).Results:A total of 1054 patients with UC were included.Most of the tumors were bladder UC(n=807,76.6%).The mean age of patients was(66.8±10.5)years,and the majority were male(78.5%).The HER2 overexpression rate was 58.4%(n=616),with an additional 23%of patients having HER2 1+expression(n=242),and a small proportion exhibiting negative HER2 expression(n=196,18.6%).HER2 expression was significantly associated with various clinical and pathological characteristics such as Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)performance status,history of cardiovascular disease,history of metabolic disorders,smoking,UC disease location,differentiation grade,pathological type,and tumor stage.Conclusion:Retrospective analysis of multi-center data shows that HER2 expression is frequently observed in Chinese UC patients,with an overexpression rate of up to 58.4%.Furthermore,HER2 expression is closely associated with various clinical and pathological features of UC patients.This study underscores the critical importance of accurately assessing HER2 expression in UC patient to guide personalized therapies.

OBJECTIVE: To study the anatomical characteristics of blood vessels in the lateral segment of the vertebral body through the surgical approach of oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) using MRI imaging, and evaluate its potential vascular safety zone. METHODS: The lumbar MRI data of 107 patients with low back and leg pain who met the selection criteria between October 2019 and November 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The vascular emanation angles, vascular travel angles, and the length of vessels in the lateral segments of the left vertebral body of L ₁-L ₅, as well as the distance between the segmental vessels in different Moro junctions of the vertebral body and their distances from the edges of the vertebrae in the same sequence (bottom marked as I, top as S) were measured. The gap between the large abdominal vessels and the lateral vessels of the vertebral body was set as the lateral vascular safe zones of the lumbar spine, and the extent of the safe zones (namely the area between the vessels) was measured. The anterior 1/3 of the lumbar intervertebral disc was taken as the simulated puncture center, and the area with a diameter of 22 mm around it as the simulated channel area. The proportion of vessels in the channel was further counted. In addition, the proportions of segmental vessels at L ₅ without a clear travel and with an emanation angel less than 90° were calculated. RESULTS: Except for the differences in the vascular emanation angles between L ₄ and L ₅, the vascular travel angles between L ₁, L ₂ and L ₄, L ₅, and the length of vessels in the lateral segments of the vertebral body among L ₁-L ₄ were not significant ( P>0.05), the differences in the vascular emanation angles, vascular travel angles, and the length of vessels between the rest segments were all significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the distance between vessels of L ₁, L ₂ and L ₂, L ₃ at Moro Ⅰ-Ⅳ junctions ( P>0.05), in L ₃, L ₄ and L ₄, L ₅ at Ⅱ and Ⅲ junction ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the vascular distance of L ₂, L ₃ between Ⅱ, Ⅲ junction and Ⅲ, Ⅳ junction, and the vascular distance of L ₃, L ₄ between Ⅰ, Ⅱ junction and Ⅲ, Ⅳ junction ( P>0.05). The vascular distance of the other adjacent vertebral bodies was significant different between different Moro junctions ( P<0.05). Except that there was no significant difference in the distance between L ₂I and L ₃S at Ⅰ, Ⅱ junction, L ₃I and L ₄S at Ⅱ, Ⅲ junction, and L ₂I and L ₃S at Ⅲ, Ⅳ junction ( P>0.05), there was significant difference of the vascular distance between the bottom of one segment and the top of the next in the other segments ( P<0.05). Comparison between junctions: Except for the L ₃S between Ⅰ, Ⅱ junction and Ⅱ, Ⅲ junction, and L ₅S between Ⅰ, Ⅱ junction and Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅲ, Ⅳ junctions had no significant difference ( P>0.05), there were significant differences in the distance between the other segmental vessels and the vertebral edge of the same sequence in different Moro junctions ( P<0.05). The overall proportion of vessels in the simulated channels was 40.19% (43/107), and the proportion of vessels in L ₁ (41.12%, 44/107) and L ₅ (18.69%, 20/107) was higher than that in the other segments. The proportion of vessels in the channel of Moro zone Ⅰ (46.73%, 50/107) and zone Ⅱ (32.71%, 35/107) was higher than that in the zone Ⅲ, while no segmental vessels in L ₁ and L ₂ were found in the channel of zone Ⅲ ( χ ²=74.950, P<0.001). Moreover, 26.17% (28/107) of the segmental vessels of lateral L ₅ showed no movement, and 27.10% (29/107) vascular emanation angles of lateral L ₅ were less than 90°. CONCLUSION L ₁ and L ₅ segmental vessels are most likely to be injured in Moro zones Ⅰ and Ⅱ, and the placement of OLIF channels in L _{4, 5} at Ⅲ, Ⅳ junction should be avoided. It is usually safe to place fixation pins at the vertebral body edge on the cephalic side of the intervertebral space, but it is safer to place them on the caudal side in L _{1, 2} (Ⅰ, Ⅱ junction), L _{3, 4} (Ⅲ, Ⅳ junction), and L _{4, 5} (Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ junctions).

Objective To analyze and assess the postoperative motor function in children with spastic cerebral palsy (SCP) by surface electromyography (sEMG) and joint angle. Methods Sixteen children with SCP were involved in this study. The sEMG of rectus femoris, biceps femoris, semitendinosus, tibialis anterior, lateral gastrocnemius and medial gastrocnemius muscles and joint angles of the hip, knee and ankle during straight walking were collected preoperatively and postoperatively. In every gait phase, the mean values of joint angles, root mean square and integrated electromyography of sEMG were calculated, to evaluate muscle strength and muscular tension quantitatively. Results The muscle tension of lower limbs was significantly decreased (P<0.05). The muscle strength of rectus femoris and biceps femoris was decreased in the swing phase. At the midswing and terminal swing phase, the strength of tibialis anterior increased significantly (P<0.05). The flexion angle of hip and knee decreased significantly (P<0.05). The dorsiflexion angle of ankle increased significantly (P<0.05), and the varus angle decreased significantly (P<0.05). Conclusions After operation, the crouching gait and clubfoot were improved positively. Therefore, the motor function of children was improved. Combining sEMG and joint angle can evaluate the muscle function of patients quantitatively, and it also can provide references for clinical diagnosis.

Objective:Taking emergency department (ED) as a starting point, to analyze the epidemiological characteristics and mortality risk factors of sepsis, and to provide evidences for ED to carry out the strategy of "three early and two lower" for sepsis.Methods:Based on the ED and inpatient medical record management information platform of Tianjin Medical University Gernal Hospital, adult ED patients with sepsis from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2020 were included according to the third international consensus definitions for sepsis and septic shock in 2016 and the consensus of Chinese experts on early prevention and blocking of sepsis in 2020. The epidemiological characteristics of patients were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was used to compare the difference of age, sex, hospitalization times, length of stay, hospitalization cost and infection location between dead patients and survival patients, and a stepwise logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of mortality in hospitalized patients with ED sepsis.Results:A total of 7 494 patients with sepsis in ED were included in this study, and the annual and monthly component ratios varied from 3.8‰ to 6.1‰ and 2.0‰ to 9.0‰, respectively. The main characteristics of patients with sepsis in ED were as follows: 40-69 years old (46.0%), male (59.0%), mostly diagnosed with sepsis (96.8%), mainly treated with urban health insurance (59.6%), and ED diagnosis and treatment fees of 2 000-8 000 Yuan (51.1%). The mortality of hospitalized patients with ED sepsis was 24.4% and that of hospitalized patients with septic shock was 28.8%. The main characteristics of hospitalized patients with ED sepsis were as follows: most of them were male (56.2%) patients over 70 years old (56.0%), most of them were diagnosed with sepsis (94.0%) and hospitalized for the first time (76.0%), the median hospitalization time was 15 d, most of them were hospitalized under urban health insurance (65.2%), and the median hospitalization fees was 47 000 Yuan. The risk factors of death were influenced by age and length of stay. Patients aged 70 years or older had a higher risk of death than those aged from 18 to 39 years, and patients with a length of stay of more than 7 d had a lower risk of death than those with a length of stay of shorter than 7 d. The primary infection focus were mainly respiratory and urinary systems, while the death rate of patients with hematological and abdominal infections was relatively high, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Respiratory and abdominal infections were risk factors for death in patients with ED sepsis. Conclusions:The composition ratio of sepsis in ED patients is not regular in time, so vigilance of sepsis in elderly men and patients with respiratory system, blood system, urinary system and abdominal infections should be constantly raised. Patients with sepsis who are older, hospitalized more frequently, hospitalized for a shorter time, and infected in the respiratory system or abdomen have a higher risk of death.

A software and hardware platform for gait simulation and system evaluation for lower limb intelligent prosthesis is proposed and designed, in order that the wearable symmetry effect of the intelligent knee prosthesis can be quantitatively analyzed by machine test instead of human wear test. The whole-body three-dimensional gait and motion analysis system instrument, a device to collect gait data such as joint angle and stride of adults, was used for extracting simulated gait characteristic curve. Then, the gait curve was fitted based on the corresponding joint to verify the feasibility of the test platform in the experiment. Finally, the developed artificial knee prosthesis was worn on the prosthetic evaluation system to quantitatively analyze the gait symmetry effect. The results showed that there was no significant difference in gait symmetry between the developed knee joints at different speeds, which could reach more than 88%. The simulation and evaluation of the prosthetic gait have good effects on the functional simulation and evaluation of the lower limb intelligent prosthesis.
