AIM: To compare the efficacy of simple autologous blood coverage with ILM flap tamponade combined with autologous blood coverage after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)with internal limiting membrane(ILM)peeling in treating macular hole retinal detachment(MHRD)of high myopia patients with moderately long axial length.METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled 45 patients(45 eyes)with high myopia and MHRD, and axial lengths of 26-29 mm treated at our institution between January 1, 2020 and January 1, 2024. Patients were divided into two groups based on surgical technique: group A(24 eyes)underwent PPV with ILM peeling, ILM flap tamponade, autologous blood coverage, and silicone oil injection; group B(21 eyes)received PPV with ILM peeling followed by autologous blood coverage and silicone oil injection. Intraocular pressure, best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), retinal reattachment and macular hole closure status were compared at 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo postoperatively. Silicone oil removal was performed at 6 mo postoperatively, with additional 2-month follow-up.RESULTS:At 8-month postoperative follow-up, both groups achieved complete retinal reattachment. Macular hole closure rates showed no significant intergroup difference(88% vs 86%, P=0.860). Significant improvement in BCVA was observed in both groups compared to preoperative values, with the group B demonstrating better visual outcomes than the group A(P<0.001). Transient parafoveal subretinal fluid persistence was noted in 2 eyes of the group A(resolved spontaneously at 5 and 8 mo post-PPV, respectively), and 1 eye of the group B(resolved by 4 mo post-PPV). Serial optical coherence tomography(OCT)monitoring revealed no macular hole reopening, with complete subretinal fluid resolution confirmed in all cases at final follow-up.CONCLUSION:For high myopic MHRD patients with moderately long axial length, both surgical approaches effectively promote macular hole closure and retinal reattachment. However, the autologous blood coverage technique demonstrates better BCVA than the combined ILM tamponade.

Objective To analyze the influence of drainage volume on prognosis of acute hydrocephalus(AHC)after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage(aSAH)by continuous lumbar drainage.Methods A retrospective trial was conducted on 82 AHC patients after aSAH admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 2017 and January 2022.In 6 months after discharge,modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score was used to evaluate the prognostic outcomes.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed on demographic factors,severity of subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)at admission,medical history,cerebral vasospasm,and lumbar drainage data.Then a nomogram prediction model was constructed.Results Univariate analysis found that World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies(WFNS)score,Hunt-Hess grade,modified Fisher grade,time for continuous lumbar drainage,shunt dependence,cerebral vasospasm,and drainage volume were factors affecting the prognosis of the patients.Then logistic regression analysis revealed that high WFNS score(OR:3.25,95％CI:1.11～9.48),high modified Fisher grade(OR:3.66,95％CI:1.08～12.35),shunt dependence(OR:15.56,95％CI:1.22～198.57),and cerebral vasospasm(OR:22.24,95％CI:3.08～160.68)were independent predictors for mRS score,while volume of continuous lumbar drainage(OR:0.57,95％CI:0.40～0.82)was an independent protective factor.ROC curve analysis indicated a good predictive performance of the model(AUC=0.898,95％CI:0.935～0.861).Internal validation through Bootstrap method demonstrated excellent discriminatory ability of the model(C-index=0.950,95％CI:0.904～0.996;adjusted C-index:0.934).Conclusion Increased volume of lumbar drainage is an independent protective factor for poor prognosis following aSAH and can improve the prognosis of SAH patients.

Tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC)is a rare genetic disease that can lead to benign dysplasia in multiple organs such as the skin, brain, eyes, oral cavity, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and bones. Its main symptoms include epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, skin depigmentation, and facial angiofibromas, whilst incidence is approximately 1 in 10 000 to 1 in 6000 newborns. This case presents a middle-aged woman who initially manifested with epilepsy and nodular depigmentation. Later, she developed a lower abdominal mass, elevated creatinine, and severe anemia. Based on clinical features and whole exome sequencing, the primary diagnosis was confirmed as TSC. Laboratory and imaging examinations revealed that the lower abdominal mass originated from the uterus. CT-guided biopsy pathology and surgical pathology suggested a combination of leiomyoma and abscess. With the involvement of multiple organs and various complications beyond the main diagnosis, the diagnostic and therapeutic process for this patient highlights the importance of rigorous clinical thinking and multidisciplinary collaboration in the diagnosis and treatment of rare and challenging diseases.

The common clinical subtypes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) include systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SOJIA), oligoarthritis/polyarthritis juvenile idiopathic arthritis and juvenile spondyloarthritis. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis has no specific diagnostic index, and needs to be differentiated from infectious diseases and malignant diseases. The onset of SOJIA is rapid, the disease progresses rapidly, and it is easy to be complicated with macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) which is life-threatening. The experience of pediatric rheumatologists in dealing with JIA is still insufficient, and the standardized diagnosis and treatment level of this disease needs to be further improved. Based on the experience and guidelines of diagnosis and treatment in China and abroad, we formulated this diagnosis and treatment standard, aiming at standardizing the diagnosis and treatment of the subtypes of JIA and MAS, so as to reduce the incidence of disability and serious complications and improve the prognosis.

Objective:To study the changes of stenotic segment trachea diameter, trachea length and carina angle before and after slide tracheoplasty.Methods:From January 2010 to January 2018, 77 children with congenital tracheal stenosis(female=36) with complete clinical data accepted slide tracheoplasty in Shanghai Children's Medical Center were selected as the observation group. The diameter of stenosis segment, the length of stenosis segment, the full length of trachea and carina angle were measured by CT image, and the ratio of stenosis segment length to full trachea length was calculated. A group of children with normal trachea morphology and the same sample number, and they had no significant difference in age, height and weight were selected as the control group.Results:The median operative age of 77 children in the observation group was 1.3(1.1, 1.9)years old, the height was 76.0(72.0, 83.0)cm, and the weight was 9.0(7.9, 10.8)kg. The age, height and weight of 77 children in the control group were 1.5(1.0, 2.0) years old and 78.0(71.0, 85.0) cm, 9.2(7.9, 11.0) kg respectively. After slide tracheoplasty, the diameter of trachea in the stenotic segment of children increased from 2.7 mm to 4.4 mm, which was increased by 63.0%( P<0.001), but still smaller than that of children in the control group(6.1 mm). The average length of trachea was shortened by 0.7 cm( P<0.001), and there was no significant difference between the total length of trachea(5.4 cm) and the total length of trachea(5.5 cm). The postoperative carina angle decreased by 27.9°( P<0.001), there was no significant difference in postoperative carina angle between the observation group(93.0°) and the control group(90.7°). Conclusion:The diameter of reconstructed trachea in children with CTS is significantly increased, the length and carina angle of trachea become smaller after slide tracheoplasty. The morphology of trachea is more similar to children in the control group.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are special materials formed by self-assembly of metal ions and organic ligands, with special physical and chemical properties, such as large specific surface area, excellent biocompatibility and strong pH sensitivity, etc. Through modification, they have synthesized nanomaterials with excellent performance, which have huge application prospects in treating tumors. This paper mainly reviews the properties of MOFs and their derived materials, and the application progress of MOFs in tumor drug-loaded therapy, photodynamic therapy and immunotherapy.

Backgrounds::Inadequate sleep duration is associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and the relationship is nonlinear. We aim to assess the curve relationship between night sleep duration and the incidence of type 2 diabetes in China.Methods::A cohort of 11,539 participants from the REACTION study without diabetes at baseline (2011) were followed until 2014 for the development of type 2 diabetes. The average number of hours of sleep per night was grouped. Incidence rates and odds ratios (ORs) were calculated for the development of diabetes in each sleep duration category.Results::Compared to people who sleep for 7 to 8 h/night, people with longer sleep duration (≥9 h/night) had a greater risk of type 2 diabetes (OR: 1.27; 95% CI: 1.01-1.61), while shorter sleep (<6 h/night) had no significant difference in risk of type 2 diabetes. When the dataset was stratified based on selected covariates, the association between type 2 diabetes and long sleep duration became more evident among individuals <65 years of age, male, body mass index <24 kg/m 2 or with hypertension or hyperlipidemia, no interaction effects were observed. Furthermore, compared to people persistently sleeping 7 to 9 h/night, those who persistently slept ≥9 h/night had a higher risk of type 2 diabetes. The optimal sleep duration was 6.3 to 7.5 h/night. Conclusions::Short or long sleep duration was associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes. Persistently long sleep duration increased the risk.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics of ketosis-associated prurigo pigmentosa after ketogenic diet and bariatric surgery.Methods:Clinical data were collected from patients with ketosis-associated prurigo pigmentosa, who were diagnosed and treated in Department of Dermatology, Peking University People′s Hospital from September 2018 to September 2020. The clinical characteristics, sequelae and therapeutic effect of dietary modification were analyzed and summarized.Results:A total of 6 patients with ketosis-associated prurigo pigmentosa were collected, including 5 females who developed prurigo pigmentosa after ketogenic diet, and 1 male who developed prurigo pigmentosa after bariatric surgery. The skin lesions mainly involved the chest, back, waist and abdomen, and rarely involved the eyelids, axillae, elbows and mons pubis. Common skin lesions included urticaria-like erythema, papules and pigmentation arranged in a reticular distribution, and rare skin lesions included mung bean- to soybean-sized blisters, whose walls were liable to break. Among 5 patients undergoing routine urine analysis, 4 were positive (from + to ++++) for ketone bodies in the urine, and 3 were positive for urinary protein (+) . Pathological examination in 2 patients showed epidermal spongiosis, scattered necrotic keratinocytes, basal cell liquefaction, lymphocyte infiltration in the superficial dermis, and erythrocyte extravasation. The 6 patients were advised to eat staple foods. After dietary modification, 5 patients were nearly cured within 1 week; 1 patient, who continued ketogenic diet for weight loss, still received marked improvement after the treatment with minocycline at a dose of 100 mg/d in spite of restriction of carbohydrate intake. The levels of urinary ketone bodies and urinary protein in the 6 patients all returned to normal within 1 week after treatment.Conclusions:Ketosis plays an important role in the occurrence of prurigo pigmentosa. Dietary modification alone or adjuvant medical treatment such as minocycline is effective for the treatment of ketosis-related prurigo pigmentosa.

Pulmonary valve regurgitation is a common complication after radical surgery in children with tetralogy of fallot. Long-term presence of pulmonary valve regurgitation can lead to increased right heart load, and then increase the risk of arrhythmia, right heart failure, movement limitation and even sudden death. This review summarize and analyze the mid- and long-term pulmonary valve regurgitation, right heart function, and reconstruction effect after radical surgery in patients with tetralogy of fallot, in order to clarify the necessity and feasibility of long-term pulmonary valve reconstruction of children with tetralogy of fallot after radical surgery, and to briefly discuss the operation timing and indications.
