		                        			 Cataract is the world's leading cause of blindness, and surgery is the most effective treatment for cataract. With the development of femtosecond laser technology and ophthalmic surgical equipment, the application of femtosecond laser systems in cataract surgery is becoming increasingly widespread. It can be used in cataract surgery for corneal incisions, anterior capsulotomy, lens fragmentation, arcuate incisions and other key operations. Compared to traditional surgery, femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery(FLACS)offers significant advantages in precision, safety and postoperative visual outcomes. Its clinical benefits have garnered growing recognition among ophthalmologists. However, the key technologies and high-precision equipment for FLACS remain predominantly controlled by Western countries. In China, the research in this field began later. This article reviews the technological advancements in FLACS, with a focus on femtosecond laser technology, optical coherence tomography(OCT), artificial intelligence, and clinical application progress. The objective is to provide theoretical foundations and practical insights for the development of ophthalmic medical technology in China.

		                        			OBJECTIVE To explore the effect and mechanism of the alcoholic extract from Scabiosa comosa against hepatic fibrosis (HF). METHODS Intragastrical administration of carbon tetrachloride was given to induce HF model. By observing the pathological changes in liver tissue, mRNA and protein expressions of HF indexes [α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), collagen type Ⅰ] and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway-related factors were detected, and the improvement effects and possible mechanism of low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) of alcoholic extract from S. comosa on HF model rats were investigated. Drug-containing serum was prepared by intragastrical administration of alcoholic extract from S. comosa at a concentration of 1 800 mg/(kg·d) (calculated by the amount of raw material). The effects of drug- containing serum of alcoholic extract from S. comosa on the expression of miRNA-21 were observed through the intervention of HSC-T6 cells with low, medium and high concentrations of drug-containing serum of alcoholic extract from S. comosa (diluted to 10%, 15%, 20%). miRNA-21 mimics or inhibitors were used to transfect HSC-T6 cells, and the mRNA and protein expressions of factors related to the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were detected. RESULTS The results of in vivo experiments showed that low, medium and high doses of alcoholic extract from S. comosa significantly ameliorated the histopathological changes in liver tissue of HF rats, and the percentage of collagen was significantly reduced (P<0.01); mRNA and protein expressions of the indicators related to HF as well as PI3K and Akt were significantly reduced (P<0.01), and mRNA and protein expressions of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) were increased in liver tissue of rats (P<0.01). The results of in vitro experiments showed that drug-containing serum of alcoholic extract from S. comosa significantly inhibited the expression of miRNA-21 at low, medium and high concentrations (P<0.01); whereas after transfection with miRNA-21 mimics, it was found that miRNA-21 mimics significantly increased mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K and Akt (P<0.01), while significantly decreased mRNA and protein expressions of PTEN (P<0.01); after transfection with miRNA-21 inhibitor, the changes of above indexes were opposite to the above results (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Alcoholic extracts of S. comosa may inhibit the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway by affecting the expression of miRNA-21, so as to achieve the effect of anti-hepatic fibrosis.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors on reducing residual lymph node metastasis in patients with gastric cancer.Methods:The cohort of this retrospective study comprised patients from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University who had undergone systemic treatment prior to gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy and had achieved Grade 1 primary tumor regression (TRG1) from January 2014 to December 2023. After exclusion of patients who had undergone preoperative radiotherapy, data of 58 patients (Nanfang Hospital: 46; First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University: 12) were analyzed. These patients were allocated to preoperative chemotherapy (Chemotherapy group, N=36 cases) and preoperative immunotherapy plus chemotherapy groups (Immunotherapy group, N=22 cases). There were no significant differences between these groups in sex, age, body mass index, diabetes, tumor location, pathological type, Lauren classification, tumor differentiation, pretreatment depth of invasion by primary tumor, pretreatment lymph node stage, pretreatment clinical stage, mismatch repair protein status, number of preoperative treatment cycles, or duration of preoperative treatment (all P>0.05). The primary outcome measure was postoperative lymph node downstaging. Secondary outcomes included postoperative depth of invasion by tumor, number of lymph nodes examined, and factors affecting residual lymph node metastasis status. Results:Lymph node downstaging was achieved significantly more often in the Immunotherapy group than the Chemotherapy group (pN0: 90.9% [20/22] vs. 61.1% [22/36]; pN1: 4.5% [1/22] vs. 36.1% [13/36]; pN2: 4.5% [1/22) vs. 0; pN3: 0 vs. 2.8% [1/36], Z=-2.315, P=0.021). There were no significant difference between the two groups in number of lymph nodes examined (40.5±16.3 vs. 40.8±17.5, t=0.076, P=0.940) or postoperative depth of invasion by primary tumor (pT1a: 50.0% [11/22] vs. 30.6% [11/36]; pT1b: 13.6% [3/22] vs. 19.4% [7/36]; pT2: 13.6% [3/22] vs. 13.9% [5/36]; pT3: 13.6% [3/22] vs. 25.0% [9/36]; pT4a: 9.1% [2/22] vs. 11.1% [4/36], Z=-1.331, P=0.183). Univariate analysis revealed that both preoperative treatment regimens were associated with residual lymph node metastasis status in patients whose primary tumor regression was TRG1 (χ 2=6.070, P=0.014). Multivariate analysis incorporated the following factors: pretreatment depth of invasion by primary tumor, pretreatment lymph node stage, pretreatment clinical stage, number of preoperative treatment cycles, and preoperative treatment duration. We found that a combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy administered preoperatively was an independent protective factor for reducing residual lymph node metastases in study patients whose primary tumor regression was TRG1 (OR=0.147, 95%CI: 0.026–0.828, P=0.030). Conclusion:Compared with preoperative chemotherapy alone, a combination of preoperative immunotherapy and chemotherapy achieved greater reduction of residual lymph node metastases in the study patients who achieved TRG1 tumor regression in their primary lesions.

		                        			The control strategy of rehabilitation robots should not only adapt to patients with different levels of motor function but also encourage patients to participate voluntarily in rehabilitation training.However,existing control strategies usually consider only one of these aspects.This study proposes a voluntary and adaptive control strategy that solves both questions.Firstly,the controller switched to the corresponding working modes(including challenge,free,assistant,and robot-dominant modes)based on the trajectory tracking error of human-robot cooperative movement.To encourage patient participation,a musculoskeletal model was used to estimate the patient's active torque.The robot's output torque was designed as the product of the active torque and a coefficient,with the coefficient adaptively changing according to the working mode.Experiments were conducted on two healthy subjects and four hemiplegic patients using an ankle rehabilitation robot.The results showed that this controller not only provided adaptive the robot's output torque based on the movement performance of patients but also encouraged patients to complete movement tasks themselves.Therefore,the control strategy has high application value in the field of rehabilitation.
