Purpose: To develop a predictive model for orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lens decentration 1 month after wear.
Methods: This study included myopic children who were fitted with Ortho-K lenses at Fujian Provincial Hospital between December 2022 and May 2024. Corneal topography parameters and other relevant metrics were collected pre- and post-treatment.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFQilong capsule (QLC) originates from the famous "Buyang Huanwu decoction" prescription. It is representative of drugs used in China during recovery from stroke, but its neuroprotective mechanism of action remains obscure. HPLC was used to evaluate the similarity of 10 batches of QLC samples.

However, whether the CXC subfamily of chemokine receptors (CXCR) is involved in the development and prognosis of LUAD remains unclear. Here, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with overall survival (OS) were selected from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) dataset using univariate Cox analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis.

We selected normally developing zebrafish embryos to explore the antagonism of salvianolic acid A (SAA) against clozapine-induced cardiotoxicity. Embryos were treated with CLZ and SAA, and zebrafish phenotypes were observed at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h after treatment.

Background: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a disease with distinct management complexities as it displays a remarkably heterogeneous molecular subtype. However, the landscape of angiogenesis for SCC is not fully investigated.
Method And Materials: The angiogenesis-related subtypes of SCC were established by using the ConsensusClusterPlus package based on angiogenesis-related genes and TCGA data.
Background: Prognostic genes in the tumor microenvironment play an important role in immune biological processes and the response of cancer to immunotherapy. Thus, we aimed to assess new biomarkers that are associated with immune/stromal cells in lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) using the ESTIMATE algorithm, which also significantly affects the prognosis of cancer.
Methods: The RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and clinical data of LUAD were downloaded from the the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA ).
We demonstrate a compact, all-fiber-integrated laser system that delivers Raman solitons with a duration of ∼100 fs and pulse energy of up to 13.3 nJ, continuously wavelength tunable from 1.98 to 2.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFUltrafast fiber lasers with broad bandwidth and short pulse duration have a variety of applications, such as ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopy and supercontinuum generation. We report a simple and compact all-fiber thulium-doped femtosecond laser mode-locked by carbon nanotubes. The oscillator operates in slightly normal cavity dispersion at 0.

Objective: To investigate clinical features of the patients with hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (AHE).
Methods: Totally 625 consecutive patients enrolled from Dec 2002 to Dec 2006 were studied retrospectively. All of the patients were subclassified into acute hepatitis E group (AHE=437 cases) and Superinfected Group (S=188 cases), and S group was further divided into the group of chronic hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (CHB+AHE, 130 cases) and the group of liver cirrhosis and hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (LCB+AHE, 58 cases).
