Résumé
The incidence of myopia is increasing year by year and the trend of younger age is obvious. The situation of myopia prevention and control is very serious. The sclera is the target organ for the development of myopia. When myopia occurs and develops, the ultrastructure of the sclera tissue will undergo pathological changes, resulting in a decrease in its tensile strength, then progressive axial growth and posterior sclera expansion. Scleral collagen cross-linking can effectively increase the hardness and tensile strength of scleral tissue, which may have great potential in the prevention and control of myopia, especially pathological myopia. At present, the effectiveness of scleral collagen cross-linking technology in the prevention and treatment of pathological myopia researches are still in the stage of animal experiments, and there are a lot of controversies on the safety. The development of any new technology to ensure safety is the primary condition. A comprehensive understanding of the safety of scleral collagen crosslinking in the prevention and control of myopia can provide more basis and guidance for the further study of scleral collagen crosslinking.

Objective:To investigate the changes in the nerve fiber layer of the cornea in patients with demyelinating optic neuritis (DON) and its correlation with visual acuity.Methods:A cross-sectional study. From March 2021 to July 2022, 27 cases (39 eyes) of DON patients diagnosed in the Department of Neurology and Ophthalmology of Beijing Tongren Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were enrolled in this study. According to the serological test results, the patients were divided into aquaporin 4 antibody associated optic neuritis (AQP4-ON group) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody associated optic neuritis (MOG-ON group), with 15 cases (19 eyes) and 12 cases (20 eyes) respectively. According to previous history of glucocorticoid treatment, the patients were divided into glucocorticoid treated group and non-glucocorticoid treated group, with 17 cases (27 eyes) and 10 cases (12 eyes) respectively. Twenty healthy volunteers (20 eyes) with age- and gender-matched were selected as the control group. All eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) examinations. BCVA was performed using Snellen's standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, which was converted into logarithmic minimum angle resolution (logMAR) visual acuity during statistics. The corneal nerve fiber length (CNFL), corneal nerve fiber density (CNFD), corneal nerve fiber branch length (CNBL), corneal nerve fiber branch density (CNBD) and the density of corneal dendritic cells (DC) were detected by IVCM examination. Parameter comparison between groups by t-test and Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test. The correlation between logMAR BCVA and pamameters of corneal nerve fibers were analyzed using Spearman analysis. Results:The CNFL, CNFD, and CNBL of the DON group and the control group were (10.67±2.55) mm/mm 2, (57.78±12.35) root/mm 2, (3.27±1.34) mm/mm 2, and (13.74±3.05) mm/mm 2, (70.95±13.14) root/mm 2, and (4.22±1.03) mm/mm 2, respectively; the difference in CNFL, CNFD, and CNBL between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=4.089, 3.795, 2.773; P<0.05). The CNFL, CNBL, and CNBD of the affected eyes in the MOG-ON group and AQP4-ON group were (12.02±2.13) mm/mm 2, (3.80±1.19) mm/mm 2, (47.97±8.86) fibers/mm 2, and (9.25±2.19) mm/mm 2, (2.72±1.19) mm/mm 2, (39.43±13.86) fibers/mm 2, respectively; the differences in CNFL, CNBL, and CNBD between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=-4.002, -2.706, -2.306; P<0.05). The corneal DC density of the patients in the hormone treated group and the non-hormone treated group was (24.43±8.32) and (41.22±9.86) cells/mm 2, respectively. The difference in corneal DC density between the two subgroups was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Correlation analysis showed that there was a significant negative correlation between logMAR BCVA and CNBL and CNFL in patients with DON ( r=-0.422, -0.456; P<0.05). Conclusions:There are different degrees of corneal nerve fiber damage in patients with different types of DON. There was a negative correlation between BCVA and the length of corneal nerve fibers.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of acidified aliphatic ester in the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) in mouse models, and to preliminarily explore its mechanisms of action.Methods:Twenty female BALB/c mice aged 6 to 8 weeks were randomly divided into 2 groups: 5 mice in the blank control group were topically treated with absolute ethanol on both ears (14.3 μl per ear) every day, and 15 mice in the model group were topically treated with calcipotriol liniment (14.3 μl per ear) and 20 g/L ovalbumin (25 μl per ear) on both ears every day for 10 consecutive days to establish AD-like mouse models. From day 11, 15 mice in the model group were randomly divided into 3 groups (5 mice in each group), including AD model group, aliphatic ester group, and acidified aliphatic ester group; in the forenoon, all the 3 groups continued to be topically treated with calcipotriol liniment and ovalbumin to maintain AD-like models; in the afternoon, the aliphatic ester group and acidified aliphatic ester group were topically treated with aliphatic ester and acidified aliphatic ester respectively (10 μl per ear), and no treatment was given to the AD model group. Changes in body weight, ear thickness, ear skin lesion scores, and scratching frequency were observed. Ear skin swabs were obtained from the mice on days 10 and 14 for 16S rRNA gene - based microbial diversity tests. On day 14, mice were sacrificed after reflectance confocal microscopy examinations of the ear skin, ear tissues were resected for hematoxylin and eosin staining, mast cell staining, and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and blood samples were collected for detection of serum IgE levels. One-way analysis of variance was used for analysis of data that met homogeneity of variance criteria, and least significant difference- t test for multiple comparisons. Results:On day 14, the severity of mouse ear lesions was the highest in the AD model group, followed in turn by the aliphatic ester group, acidified aliphatic ester group, and blank control group; compared with the AD model group, the acidified aliphatic ester group showed significantly decreased mouse ear thickness ( F = 897.50, P < 0.001), skin lesion scores ( F = 268.80, P < 0.001), scratching frequency ( F = 64.36, P < 0.001), and epidermal thickness ( F = 256.20, P < 0.001). In addition, RT-qPCR indicated that the expression of inflammatory factors such as interleukin (IL) -33, thymic stromal lymphopoietin, IL-4, and tumor necrosis factor-α in lesional areas, and the degree of mast-cell infiltration were all significantly lower in the acidified aliphatic ester group than in the AD model group ( F = 3.38, 8.70, 41.73, 44.30, 134.30, P = 0.049, = 0.001, < 0.001, < 0.001, <0.001, respectively). Microbial diversity tests showed that the acidified aliphatic ester treatment could inhibit the colonization of Staphylococcus spp. in the ears of AD-like mouse models, and the Shannon index and Simpson index significantly differed among the 4 groups ( F = 9.00, 7.92, P = 0.001, 0.002, respectively) . Conclusion:Acidified aliphatic ester could improve skin lesions of AD-like mouse models, possibly by regulating immunity, suppressing inflammation, and restoring skin microecological diversity.
Résumé
OBJECTIVES@#Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a serious cerebrovascular disease. Early brain injury (EBI) and cerebral vasospasm are the main reasons for poor prognosis of SAH patients. The specific inhibitor of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), tubastatin A (TubA), has been proved to have a definite neuroprotective effect on a variety of animal models of acute and chronic central nervous system diseases. However, the neuroprotective effect of TubA on SAH remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the expression and localization of HDAC6 in the early stage of SAH, and to evaluate the protective effects of TubA on EBI and cerebral vasospasm after SAH and the underlying mechanisms.@*METHODS@#Adult male SD rats were treated with modified internal carotid artery puncture to establish SAH model. In the first part of the experiment, rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: a sham group, a SAH-3 h group, a SAH-6 h group, a SAH-12 h group, a SAH-24 h group, and a SAH-48 h group. At 3, 6, 12, and 24 h after SAH modeling, the injured cerebral cortex of rats in each group was taken for Western blotting to detect the expression of HDAC6. In addition, the distribution of HDAC6 in the cerebral cortex of the injured side was measured by immunofluorescence double staining in SAH-24 h group rats. In the second part, rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: a sham group, a SAH group, a SAH+TubAL group (giving 25 mg/kg TubA), and a SAH+TubAH group (giving 40 mg/kg TubA). At 24 h after modeling, the injured cerebral cortex tissue was taken for Western blotting to detect the expression levels of HDAC6, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining to detect apoptosis, and hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining to detect the diameter of middle cerebral artery.@*RESULTS@#The protein expression of HDAC6 began to increase at 6 h after SAH (P<0.05), peaked at 24 h (P<0.001), and decreased at 48 h, but there was still a difference compared with the sham group (P<0.05). HDAC6 is mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of the neurons. Compared with the sham group, the neurological score was decreased significantly and brain water content was increased significantly in the SAH group (both P<0.01). Compared with the SAH group, the neurological score was increased significantly and brain water content was decreased significantly in the SAH+TubAH group (both P<0.05), while the improvement of the above indexes was not significant in the SAH+TubAL group (both P>0.05). Compared with the sham group, the expression of eNOS was significantly decreased (P<0.01) and the expressions of iNOS and HDAC6 were significantly increased (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively) in the SAH group. Compared with the SAH group, the expression of eNOS was significantly increased, and iNOS and HDAC6 were significantly decreased in the SAH+TubA group (all P<0.05). Compared with the SAH group, the number of TUNEL positive cells was significantly decreased and the diameter of middle cerebral artery was significantly increased in the SAH+TubA group (both P<0.05) .@*CONCLUSIONS@#HDAC6 is mainly expressed in neurons and is up-regulated in the cerebral cortex at the early stage of SAH. TubA has protective effects on EBI and cerebral vasospasm in SAH rats by reducing brain edema and cell apoptosis in the early stage of SAH. In addition, its effect of reducing cerebral vasospasm may be related to regulating the expression of eNOS and iNOS.

Objective:To observe and analyze the multimodal imaging characteristics of fundus in patients with sympathetic ophthalmia (SO).Methods:A retrospective study. From October 2012 to December 2021, 28 patients (36 eyes) diagnosed SO in the Department of Ophthalmology, Beijing Tongren Hospital were inclued in the study. There were 19 males (25 eyes) and 9 females (11 eyes), with the mean age of 51.61±12.02 years. There were 8 exciting eyes and 28 sympathizing eyes. The time to onset after trauma or surgery was 46.10±107.98 months. All patients underwent examinations including vision test, color fundus photograph, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus fluorescence angiography (FFA), indocyanine green angiography (ICGA). Angio-OCT (OCTA) was performed on 3 eyes and fundus autofluorescence (AF) was performed on 8 eyes. The early and late phase were defined respectively as ≤2 months and >2 months. Their multimodal imaging characteristics were summarized.Results:In 8 exciting eyes, subretinal fibrosis with mutifocal retinal atrophy and pigmentation was noted in 5 eyes (62.50%, 5/8), the other 3 eyes showed sunset glow fundus (37.50%, 3/8). In 28 sympathizing eyes, in the early phase, the fundus photograph showed shallow retinal detachment with optic disc edema in 9 eyes (32.14%, 9/28); in the late phase, peripapillary yellowish-white subretinal lesions in 11 eyes (39.29%, 11/28). In the late course of the disease, there were yellow-white lesions around the optic disc (peridisc) and peripheral subretinal area in 11 eyes (39.29%, 11/28). Dalen-Fuchs nodules were found in 10 eyes (35.71%, 10/28). On OCT, multiple serous retinal detachment and irregular choroidal folds were noted in the early phase; hill-like subretinal hyperreflective elevation was noted in peripapillary area and subfovea with presence of cystic spaces in the intraretina in the late phase. FFA examination showed"pinpoint-like" strong fluorescence in the early stage, and "multi-lake-like" fluorescein accumulation and leakage in the late stage; "map-like" weak fluorescence around the disc in the early stage of the disease, dot-like strong fluorescence lesions in each quadrant of the peripheral retina, and fluorescence in the late stage of the disease course. enhanced. ICGA examination showed that the FFA strong fluorescence lesions in the middle and late stages were weak fluorescence. FAF examination, point-like strong and weak autofluorescence lesions with unclear boundaries. Nine sympathizing eyes with subretinal yellow-white lesions has vision without light-0.1 (significantly decreased vison), while 8 eyes with sunset glow fundus was 0.5-1.0 (mildly decreased vison).Conclusions:SO could not only show the semblable features of acute phases of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, but also the yellowish-white lesions in the peripapillary area, macula and periphery. Most of the eyes with peripapillary lesions has a significantly decreased vison, while the eyes with sunset glow fundus has a mildly decreased vison.

Objective:To investigate the fall-related psychological experience of elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:A descriptive research method was used. A total of 15 elderly patients with AMI who received PCI in Hefei Second People′s Hospital from April 2021 to July 2021 were selected by the maximum difference sampling method for semi-structured interview. Colaizzi seven-step analysis method was used to analyze the data.Results:The fall-related psychological experience of elderly AMI patients after PCI could be divided into three themes: abnormal perception of fall risk (insufficient perception of fall risk, enhanced perception of fall risk); negative emotional distress of falling (fear of falling, foreboding sadness of falling outcome); the need for a safe home environment and a supportive monitoring system (need a safe home environment, rely on family/health care staff for support and supervision, lack of self-management information on falling prevention at home).Conclusions:Elderly patients with AMI have abnormal perception of risk of fall after PCI, and have negative emotions such as fear and sadness for postoperative fall. There is a certain demand for environmental safety and fall prevention support and supervision system in home cardiac rehabilitation. Nursing staff should formulate personalized early warning and intervention measures for them, pay attention to the psychological needs of patients, promote the role adaptation of patients, and provide continuous health services to prevent falls at home.

Objective:To observe and analyze the genotype and clinical phenotype in 34 families of familial exudative vitreoretinopathy associated with (FEVR) gene variation.Methods:Cohort study. Thirty-four FEVR families, in which the patients and both of their parents were all found to have FEVR-related gene mutations (proband 34 cases, 67 eyes; parents 68 cases, 136 eyes), were included in the study. These patients were identifIed from 722 FEVR patients through genetic screening, which diagnosed in Department of Ophtalmology of Xinhua Hospital and Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital from January 2010 to December 2018. The probands and their parents underwent a comprehensive ophthalmological examination appropriate to their age, including BCVA, intraocular pressure, axial length, slit lamp examination, indirect ophthalmoscopy, FFA or color fundus photography or wide field color fundus photography. According to the severity of the disease, the clinical manifestations were divided into severe phenotype and mild phenotype. Thirty-four normal healthy people over 40 years old were included as the control group. The peripheral blood samples of FEVR family members and control group members were collected, and the genes known to be involved in FEVR, such as FZD4, LRP5, NDP, TSPAN12, ZNF408 and KIF11, were analyzed by next generation sequencing molecular genetics. The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS. The counting data was expressed in numbers or rates, and tested by Kruskal-Wallis test and χ2 test to find out the existence of significant difference. Results:In 67 eyes of the 34 probands, 48 eyes (71.64%) were classified into severe phenotype and 19 eyes (28.36%) were mild phenotype. In 136 eyes of 68 parents of the proband patients, 76 eyes (55.88%) were normal, 60 eyes (44.12%) were classified into mild phenotype, and no severe phenotype was found. A total of 65 variants of FEVR-related genes were detected in the 34 probands, of which LRP5 mutation was the most common (64.61 %), followed by FZD4 (12.31%), NDP (10.77%), TSPAN12 (6.15%), ZNF408 (4.62%) and KIF11 (1.54%). Missense mutations were the most common variant in FEVR-related genes. However, the results of correlation analysis indicated that there was no significant correlation between the type of mutation and the severity of clinical phenotype ( H=1.775, P=0.620). Among the 65 mutation types, 21 types have been previously identified and 44 were novel in this study. Thirty-nine eyes of 20 cases had only one single pathogenic mutation gene but with multiple mutation sites, 26 eyes of 13 cases carried 2 relevant pathogenic mutation genes, and 2 eyes in one case had 3 pathogenic mutation genes. The mutation frequencies of LRP5, NDP, ZNF408, FZD4, TSPAN12 and KIF11 genes in probands were significantly higher than those in control group, and the difference was statistically significant. The total mutation frequencies of LRP5, NDP, ZNF408, FZD4, TSPAN12 and KIF11 genes in proband group were significantly higher than those in control group ( χ2=64.702, P <0.001). Conclusions:In the FEVR families, the most frequent mutations were those in LRP5, followed by FZD4, NDP, TSPAN12,ZNF408 and KIF11. Missense mutation is the most common type of FEVR-related gene mutation, but there is no significant correlation between the clinical phenotype and gene variation type. Most of the probands were with severe clinical phenotype, while most of the parents with FEVR pathogenic gene mutation showed normal or mild manifestations.
Résumé
Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is a hereditary retinal vascular dysplasia. So far, 6 genes have been found to be associated with FEVR: Wnt receptor Frizzled Protein 4, Norrie's disease, co-receptor low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5, tetraspanin 12, zinc finger protein 408, and kinesin family members 11 genes. Its clinical manifestations, pathological processes and genetic patterns are diverse, and it shows the relationship between gene polymorphism and clinical manifestation diversity. It is characterized by different symptoms between the same individual, the same family, and the same gene mutation; different clinical stages and gene mutation types of parents or unilateral genetic children; different clinical characteristics and gene mutation patterns of full-term and premature infant; combined with other eye disease and systemic diseases;double gene mutations and single gene mutations have different clinical manifestations and gene mutation characteristics. A comprehensive understanding of the different clinical manifestations and diverse genetics of FEVR can provide better guidance for the treatment of FEVR.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations and gene mutation of a pedigree with retinal lattice degeneration and granular corneal dystrophy (GCD) type 2.Methods Ten members in 3 generations of a pedigree with retinal lattice degeneration and GCD2 were included in the study, including 6 patients (3 males and 3 females) and 4 healthy family members. All members underwent visual acuity, slit lamp microscope, three-mirror lens, fundus color photography, optical coherence tomography, and corneal endothelial cells counting. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood (2 ml) from all the subjects and their spouses, who had no related inherited diseases. The next generation sequencing method was used to detect the mutation sites of transforming growth factor β (TGFBI), and all results underwent Sanger verification.Results Among the 12 eyes of 6 patients, the visual acuity was FC/20 cm-1.0. In the superficial central corneal stroma, snowflake-like deposits were observed in three cases (6 eyes), and a small amount of granular deposits were observed in three cases (6 eyes). Corneal endothelial cell counts were normal. Retinal lattice degeneration were observed in 3 cases, 6 eyes (including 3 cases of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in 4 eyes); retinal thinning without obvious lattice degeneration in 4 eyes of 2 patients. Nystagmus in 1 patient and fundus examination showed no significant abnormalities. DNA sequencing results showed that the proband and 4 patients had missense mutation of TGFBI gene in exon 4 c.371G> A, the mutation site corresponding to the amino acid change encoded by TGFBI gene No. 124 Amino acids, from arginine to histidine (p.R124H). Patients with this mutation have varying degrees of clinical phenotype.Conclusions The mutation of c.701G> A (p.R124H) in TGFBI gene is the causative gene of GCD in this pedigree. The patients with this mutation have different clinical phenotypes.

The inhibitory effects of Endostar in combination with radiotherapy in BALB/c nude mice model of human CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the mechanism were investigated. In nude mice model of CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the inhibitory rate and the sensitizing enhancement ratio (E/O) were calculated according to the tumor volumes in different groups. The expression of microvascular density (MVD) in tumor tissues was examined by using immunohistochemistry staining. The transcription of VEGF gene was detected by using RT-PCR. The inhibitory rate in Endostar+ radiotherapy group was higher than in other groups. In Endostar+radiotherapy group, the tumor volume was significantly decreased and the E/O ratio was 2.335, suggesting that Endostar could be a radiosensitizer. The expression of MVD of tumor tissues in Endostar+radiotherapy group was reduced significantly. The expression of the MVD in treatment groups was significantly different from that in control group (P<0.05). Compared to other groups, VEGF mRNA expression in Endostar+radiotherapy group was decreased remarkably. Endostar in combination with radiotherapy significantly inhibited the growth of CNE2 tumor. The combination therapy decreased the expression of VEGF, and inhibited tumor angiogenesis and proliferation. When combined with radiotherapy, Endostar acted as a radiosensitizer.

Objective To study metabonomics in the urine of rats of different genders by magnetic resonance (MR) with 2 normalization methods. Methods Different normalization methods such as mean-centering not scaling (Ctr) and unit variance scaling (UV) were used before orthogonal to partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA). Distinguished metabolites in the urine of different gender rats were analyzed by calculating the correlation coefficients. Results The data normalized by Ctr before OPLS-DA analysis revealed high degree conception metabolites in the urine such as valine, alanine, acetate, ornithine, aminohippurate, phenylethylamine, cytosine, citrate, dimethylamine, allantoin, methylamine, fumarate and one unknown metabolite whose chemical shift was δ4.14. Data normalized by UV before OPLS-DA analysis revealed the above 12 high degree conception metabolites except citrate, and also low degree conception metabolites such as thiamine, creatinine, formate and one unknown metabolite whose chemical shift was δ2.92.Conclusion Unit variance scaling is a more effective normalization method in metabonomic analysis.
