Previous studies have indicated a possible link between obesity and myopia, although the results varied. The objective of this study was to investigate correlation new measure obesity, weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), myopia.
Summary Little is known about the risk factors associated with hepatitis B virus ( HBV ) intrauterine transmission among HB sAg‐positive mothers. We conducted a study in Taiyuan, China, including 1133 mothers and their babies. A total of 101 neonates had sAg and/or DNA positive an rate 8.9%. Maternal menstrual irregularity OR = 4.95, 95% CI : 1.71, 14.33) severe nausea during first trimester 1.86, 1.11, 3.09) were increased transmission, while caesarean delivery 0.32, 0.20, 0.51) was...
Sesamol, an antioxidant lignan from sesame oil, possesses neuroprotective bioactivities. The present work was aimed to elucidate the systemic protective effects of sesamol on cognitive deficits and determine possible link between gut brain. Wildtype ApoE–/– mice were treated with a high-fat diet (0.05%, w/v, in drinking water) for 10 weeks. Behavioral tests including Morris-water maze, Y-maze, elevated plus maze indicated that could only improve anxiety behaviors wildtype. Consistently,...
Pond aquaculture is the major freshwater method in China. Ammonia-oxidizing communities inhabiting pond sediments play an important role controlling culture water quality. However, distribution and activities of ammonia-oxidizing microbial along sediment profiles are poorly understood this specific environment. Vertical variations abundance, transcription, potential ammonia oxidizing rate, community composition bacteria (AOB) archaea (AOA) samples (0-50 cm depth) collected from a were...
Abstract To assess anatomical changes in eyes with progressive myopia, we morphometrically examined the of guinea pigs lens-induced axial elongation. Starting at an age 3–4 weeks, experimental group (n = 20 animals) developed unilateral elongation by wearing goggles for 5 weeks compared to a control animals without intervention (axial length:8.91 ± 0.08 mm versus 8.74 0.07 mm; P < 0.001). Five after baseline, were sacrificed, and enucleated. As measured histomorphometrically, Bruch’s...
A yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated strain ZFGT-11(T), was isolated from roots of Geum aleppicum Jacq. collected Taibai Mountain in Shaanxi Province, north-west China, and subjected to a taxonomic study by using polyphasic approach. Cells ZFGT-11(T) were Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic rods that surrounded thick capsule motile means single polar flagellum. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed member the genus Sphingomonas closely related naasensis KACC...
Introduction: The purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between retinal vascular characteristics and cognitive function using artificial intelligence techniques obtain fully automated quantitative measurements morphological parameters. Methods: A deep learning-based semantic segmentation network ResNet101-UNet was used construct a model for measurement parameters on fundus photographs. Retinal photographs centered optic disc 3107 participants (aged 50-93 years) from Beijing Eye...
To assess the potential role of amphiregulin as messenger molecule in ocular axial elongation.The experimental study included guinea pigs (total n = 78) (age: 3-4 weeks) which underwent bilateral lens-induced myopization and received 15 days later three intraocular injections weekly intervals antibody (doses:5 μg, 10 20 μg) into their right eyes, phosphate-buffered saline left eyes; without unilateral (dose: or (doses: 1 ng; ng) eyes. Seven later, animals were sacrificed. Intravitally, we...
To examine the influence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its receptor (EGFR) on axial ocular elongation, we intraocularly injected an EGF antibody EGFR into young guinea pigs with lens-induced elongation (myopization). Mean was reduced in eyes EGF/EGFR-antibody compared contralateral control PBS (phosphate-buffered solution) (0.43 ± 0.13 mm vs 0.53 mm; P < .001). The intereye difference length increased (P = .005) as doses increased. As a corollary, thickness retina at posterior pole...
We aimed to develop a deep learning system capable of identifying subjects with cognitive impairment quickly and easily based on multimodal ocular images. Cross-sectional study Participants Beijing Eye Study 2011 patients attending Tongren Center Hospital Physical Examination Center. trained validated algorithm assess using retrospectively collected data from the 2011. Cognitive was defined as Mini–Mental State (MMSE) score <24. Based fundus photographs optical coherence tomography (OCT)...
A bacterial strain, designated as ZFJT-2T, was isolated from the stem of Geum aleppicum Jacq. collected Taibai Mountain in Shaanxi Province, north-west China. Cells strain ZFJT-2T were Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped and motile by means a single polar flagellum. The major fatty acids summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1 ω7c and/or ω6c), C16 0, 11-methyl 3 DNA G+C content 58.3 mol% (HPLC). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that member genus...

Lens-induced myopization in guinea pigs has been used as model for the process of humans. It not explored yet whether change globe shape eyes undergoing is similar experimental myopia and clinical patients. The study included 70 (age:2–3 weeks) equally divided into a group with lens-induced 5 weeks, control wearing goggles no refractive power. diameters were measured using microcaliper after enucleation. horizontal diameter (9.19 ± 0.15 mm versus 9.15 0.18 mm; P = 0.25) vertical (9.02 0.11...
This is a case report of patient with Fabry disease (FD). We successfully treated ventricular septal hypertrophy and left outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction caused by FD. our exclusive new surgery for patients LVOT obstruction, percutaneous intramyocardial radiofrequency ablation (PIMSRA) procedure™ (percutaneous ablation). The recovered well 7 months after operation, no arrhythmia occurred.
Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) was explored to produce CoCrNi medium entropy alloys (MEAs) from pre-alloyed with a relatively high oxygen concentration (870 ppm). Microstructure, strengthening, and toughness were investigated, revealing the effect of oxide dispersion strengthening (ODS). LPBF MEAs had porosity < 0.10% superior mechanical properties compared CoCrNi-based reported in literature. Notably, specimen denoted as S2, exhibited an excellent combination yield strength (768 MPa), UTS >...
Since the mechanisms underlying myopic axial elongation have remained unclear, we examined effect of neuregulin-1 (NRG-1), an epidermal growth factor family member, on elongation.
