不同公式计算角膜屈光术后白内障患者IOL屈光度的准确性比较

目的：对比观察5种人工晶状体(IOL)计算公式在角膜屈光术后白内障患者IOL屈光度计算中的准确性。

方法：前瞻性系列病例研究。收集2021-09/2023-03就诊于济南明水眼科医院的既往行角膜屈光手术矫正近视的白内障患者23例34眼,其中准分子角膜切削术(PRK)手术史1例1眼,准分子原位角膜磨镶术(LASIK)术后22例33眼。白内障术前采用IOL Master 700测量眼生物学参数; Pentacam眼前节分析系统测量角膜真实净屈光力(TNP); 眼前节OCT测量净角膜屈光力(NCP)、角膜后表面屈光力、角膜厚度(CCT)。采用Shammas公式、Haigis-L公式、Potvin-Hill Pentacam公式、OCT公式、Barrett True K公式进行IOL度数计算后综合选择合适的IOL度数。术后1 mo在客观验光的基础上行主觉验光获得术后实际屈光状态,根据术后验光结果计算5种公式的屈光预测误差(RPE),其绝对值为屈光绝对误差(RAE),比较RPE与0的差异及不同公式间RPE、RAE的差异,并统计RAE≤0.5 D、≤1.0 D的眼数所占百分比。

结果：5种公式计算所得的RPE与0比较均无差异(均P>0.05)。5种计算公式的RPE、RAE整体无差异(F=0.554,P=0.696; H=4.402,P=0.354); Potvin-Hill Pentacam公式、Barrett True K公式的RAE在≤0.5 D内的眼占比分别为26眼(76%)、24眼(71%),在≤1.0 D内的眼占比均为33眼(97%)。

结论：Barrett True K 公式、Potvin-Hill Pentacam公式在角膜屈光术后白内障患者IOL屈光度计算中表现出较高的预测性。由于此类人群角膜屈光力存在差异,IOL度数计算问题仍需要进一步研究,临床上建议多种公式综合考虑。     

Ocular surface in patients with different degrees of myopia

AIM: To investigate the clinical features of the ocular surface in patients with different degrees of myopia. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 122 participants with myopia in Beijing Tongren Hospital from February to June, 2023. After completing the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) score scale, measurements were taken for refraction, biometric parameters and ocular surface parameters. The prevalence, severity and related parameters of the dry eye among different groups based on axial length (AL) were compared. Correlation analysis was performed between ocular surface parameters and refraction/biometric measurement parameters. RESULTS: Statistically significant differences were observed in refractive error, corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, and subfoveal choroidal thickness among the groups (all P<0.05). With the increase in AL, the incidence and severity of dry eye increased significantly (P<0.05). Moreover, the tear film break-up time (BUT) shortened (P<0.05), and the corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) points increased significantly (P<0.05). OSDI scores were positively correlated with AL and spherical equivalent (SE; both P<0.05); BUT was negatively correlated with AL, SE, and corneal astigmatism (AST; all P<0.05); Schirmer I test (SIT) results were negatively correlated with AL and SE (both P<0.05). CONCLUSION: AL elongation is a risk factor for dry eye onset in myopic participants. The longer the AL, the more severe the dry eye is, with the increased CFS spots and tear film instability. Additionally, SE and AST exhibit negative correlations with dry eye symptom scores and ocular surface parameters.     

Evaluation of the Immunogenicity in Mice Orally Immunized with Recombinant Lactobacillus casei Expressing Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus S1 Protein

Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED), characterized by diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration, is an acute enteric infectious disease of pigs. The disease is caused by porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), which infects the intestinal mucosal surface. Therefore, mucosal immunization through the oral route is an effective method of immunization. Lactic acid bacteria, which are acid resistant and bile-salt resistant and improve mucosal immunity, are ideal carriers for oral vaccines. The S1 glycoprotein of PEDV mediates binding of the virus with cell receptors and induces neutralizing antibodies against the virus. Therefore, we reversely screened the recombinant strain pPG-SD-S1/Δupp ATCC 393 expressing PEDV S1 glycoprotein by Lactobacillus casei deficient in upp genotype (Δupp ATCC 393). Mice were orally immunized three times with the recombinant bacteria that had been identified for expression, and the changes of anti-PEDV IgG and secreted immunoglobulin A levels were observed over 70 days. The results indicated that the antibody levels notably increased after oral administration of recombinant bacteria. The detection of extracellular cytokines on the 42nd day after immunization indicated high levels of humoral and cellular immune responses in mice. The above results demonstrate that pPG-SD-S1/Δupp ATCC 393 has great potential as an oral vaccine against PEDV.

Elucidating the mechanism of nucleation inhibition of pathology crystallization of gout based on the evidence from amorphous form and in solution

The first gout attack in a hyperuricaemic patient may be regarded as a nucleation event which is caused by monosodium urate monohydrate (MSUM) deposition in the synovial fluid. The effect of Tailor-Made Inhibition (TMI) may be effective as drugs for the prevention of aberrant nucleation and crystallization. Therefore, the understanding of the underlying mechanisms in inhibiting the MSUM nucleation by TMI has proven to be of great significance. Yet most of the published studies about nucleation inhibition have tended to focus on simpler molecular models with a hydrogen-bonded acceptor and donor, which may be not suitable for the uric acid molecule with multiple hydrogen-bonded acceptors and donors under physiological conditions. Herein, the mechanisms of nucleation inhibition of MSUM were explored in a simulated biological environment (0.15 M Na⁺ and pH 7.40) in the presence and absence of TMI. And the evidence of nucleation inhibition by TMI in solution and the amorphous form of MSUM was investigated by HNMR, IR, Raman, PXRD, Dynamic light scattering (DLS), induction time measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Results showed that the inhibition comes from a combination of kinetic and thermodynamic effects, with an impact of kinetics as the TMI inhibition effects far exceeded what could be accounted for by changes in usual factors of classical nucleation theory. The data demonstrated that the complex between urate and TMI disturbed the formation of two-dimensional sheets of sodion and purine rings parallel to the (011) plane and further impeded the formation of a three-dimensional structure with aromatic stacking interactions in solution. To our knowledge, the nucleation inhibition of TMI is achieved by suppressing interplanar stacking, which is a mechanism proposed for the first time.

Xanthine, a tailor-made inhibitor, could suppress nucleation in the crystallization of gout pathology by blocking the dominant interplanar accumulation in a solution.
