RESUMO
Objective: To assess the impact of femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification on corneal endothelial characteristics and prognosis among patients with type 2 diabetes and age-related cataracts, considering varying nuclear hardness. Methods: This non-randomized controlled trial involved 161 patients (161 eyes) with type 2 diabetes undergoing cataract extraction at Weifang Eye Hospital between March 2020 and December 2022. The cohort comprised 73 males and 88 females, with an average age of (65.9±5.23) years. Based on patient preference, 101 individuals underwent conventional phacoemulsification (group A), while 60 chose femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification (group B). Patients were further stratified based on Emery-Little grade of lens nuclei into A1/B1 (grade â and â ¡), A2/B2 (grade â ¢), and A3/B3 (grade â £) subgroups. The study compared effective phacoemulsification time (EPT), cumulative energy release of phacoemulsification (CDE), central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell density (ECD), coefficient of variation (CV), and hexagon cell ratio (HEX) before and after surgery at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months. Results: The intraoperative EPT of patients in groups A and B were (6.52±4.93) and (5.63±4.31)s, respectively, and the CDE were 11.57%±5.21% and 10.68%±6.02%, respectively. The differences between them were not statistically significant (all P>0.05).There were no significant differences in EPT and CDE between groups A1 and B1 (all P>0.05), and there were statistically significant differences between groups A2 and B2, A3 and B3 (all P<0.05).The postoperative CCT was increased in both groups.There were no statistically significant differences in CCT between A1 and B1 groups at different time after surgery (all P>0.05), and there were statistically significant differences in CCT between A2 and B2, A3 and B3 groups at 1 day and 1 week after surgery (all P<0.05), and group B was significantly lower than group A.There was no significant difference between 1 month and 3 months after surgery (P>0.05).ECD was reduced in both groups.There was no statistically significant difference in ECD at different time of operation between A1 and B1 groups (all P>0.05), while there was statistically significant difference in ECD at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after operation in A2 and B2, A3 and B3 groups (all P<0.05). Group B was significantly better than group A. There was no significant difference in coefficient of variation and HEX between the two groups at different time after surgery (P>0.05). Conclusion: Femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification demonstrates benefits in preserving corneal endothelial cells, reducing early postoperative corneal edema, and minimizing corneal injury in type 2 diabetes patients with cataracts of high nuclear hardness.

Abstract Except for a few stick insects that are economically valuable, most species be considered to be forest pests, so it is extremely important to obtain plant host-use information of more stick insects. In this paper, the plant hosts of three species of stick insects were recorded for the first time. We also discovered these stick insects can feed upon the flowers or leaves of plants. Lopaphus unidentatus (Chen & He, 1995) (Phasmida: Lonchodidae) attacked Hypericum choisianum Wall. ex N. Robson, 1973 (Hypericaceae), Leurophasma dolichocercum Bi, 1995 (Phasmida: Aschiphasmatidae) attacked Antenoron filiforme (Thunb.) Roberty & Vautier, 1964 (Polygonaceae) and Megalophasma granulatum Bi, 1995 (Phasmida: Lonchodidae) attacked Debregeasia orientalis C. J. Chen, 1991 (Urticaceae). Finally, we were lucky enough to also obtain photographs of them mating and feeding.
Resumo Exceto por alguns insetos-pau que são economicamente valiosos, a maioria das espécies pode ser considerada praga florestal, por isso é extremamente importante obter informações sobre o uso de hospedeiros de plantas de mais insetos-pau. Neste artigo, as plantas hospedeiras de três espécies de bicho-pau foram registradas pela primeira vez. Também descobrimos que esses bichos-pau podem se alimentar de flores ou folhas de plantas. Lopaphus unidentatus (Chen & He, 1995) (Phasmida: Lonchodidae) atacou a parede de Hypericum choisianum. ex N.

Finalmente, tivemos a sorte de também obter fotos deles se acasalando e se alimentando.
