目的:调查神经眼科用药现状,并对其超说明书用药进行评价,探索科学有效的管理策略,为神经眼科的临床合理用药提供参考。方法:随机抽取2023年7—12月郑州市第二人民医院神经眼科处方,依据国家药品监督管理局核准的药品说明书、美国食品药品监督管理局(Food and Drug Administration, FDA)说明书及PubMed、Micromedex等循证医学数据库证据判断超说明书用药类型,并对其进行分类(包括超适应证、超剂量、超疗程、超给药途径等)。同时基于Thomson分级理论建立三级评价标准,分别为A级(高证据等级,仅需口头告知),B级(中证据等级,需在病历或病程中详细记录),C级(低证据等级,须患者签署书面知情同意书)。通过处方前置审核系统干预,对未纳入评价标准的超说明书用药进行实时拦截与分级警示,比较2023年下半年(干预前)与2024年下半年(干预后)超说明书用药处方的不合理率变化。 结果:干预前共抽取超说明书处方370张,超说明书类型主要为超适应证、超给药途径和超剂量及次。干预后,共抽取超说明书用药560张,超说明书用药不合理率从9.2%(34/370)降至2.9%(16/560)。结论:神经眼科超说明书用药普遍,主要源于视神经炎、缺血性视神经病变等复杂疾病的治疗需求与药品审批滞后之间的矛盾。基于循证医学证据构建分级管理体系,结合信息化实时干预,可有效规范超说明书用药行为,降低医疗风险。
Objective: To investigate the current status of medication use in neuro-ophthalmology, evaluate off-label drug use, and explore scientific and effective management strategies, providing references for rational drug use in neuro-ophthalmology clinical practice. Methods: We Randomly selected neuro-ophthalmology prescriptions from July to December 2023 in our hospital. By refering to the drug instructions approved by the National Medical Products Administration, FDA instructions, and evidence from evidence-based medical databases such as PubMed and Micromedex, we identified and classified the types of off-label drug use, including off-label indications, off-label doses, off-label courses, off-label administration routes, among others. Simultaneously, based on the Thomson classification theory, we established a threelevel evaluation standard: Level A (high evidence level, requiring only oral notification); Level B (medium evidence level, necessitating detailed records in the medical record or medical course); Level C (low evidence level, demanding patients sign a written informed consent form). Through the intervention of pre-prescription review system, we carried out real-time interception and classification warnings for off-label drug use not covered in the evaluation standards. We then compared the changes in the unreasonable rate of off-label drug use prescriptions from the second half of 2023 (before intervention) to the second half of 2024 (after intervention). Results: Before the intervention, a total of 1852 prescriptions were selected, with the proportion of off-label drug use at 19.98% (370 prescriptions), primarily involving off-label indications (90.27%). After the intervention, the unreasonable rate of off-label drug use decreased from 9.2% (34/370) to 2.9% (16/560). Conclusions: Off-label drug use is prevalent in neuro-ophthalmology, mainly due to the conflict between the treatment requirements for complex diseases such as optic neuritis and ischemic optic neuropathy and the delay in drug approval. By constructing a hierarchical management system based on evidence-based medical evidence and combing it with real-time information-based intervention, we can effectively regulate off-label drug use behavior and reduce medical risks.
Schlemm管(Schlemm's canal,SC)作为房水流出的主要通道,通过调节房水外排来维持眼内压的平衡,其结构和功能的异常与高眼压及青光眼的发生发展密切相关。对SC的研究有助于阐明房水外排阻滞的发生机制、探索新的途径以增加房水排出,从而为降低眼压和青光眼治疗的新药物开发提供基础。目前,对SC发育和功能的调节机制的认识仍然有限,缺乏针对SC的特异性治疗策略。近年来,关于SC细胞命运决定及其结构发育的细胞学机制逐渐被揭示,功能调控的关键分子靶标也相继被发现,这促进了对SC结构和功能调控的深入理解。此外,作为降眼压药物靶点和针对性手术的创新应用也在不断拓展。文章系统回顾SC的结构与功能研究,总结关键的分子和细胞学调控机制,归纳SC靶向药物和手术疗法的最新进展,为青光眼的临床诊治提供了新的思路。
Schlemm's canal (SC), as the primary pathway for aqueous humor drainage, maintains intraocular pressure balance by regulating aqueous outflow. Abnormalities in its structure and function are closely associated with elevated intraocular pressure and the development of glaucoma. Research on SC aids in elucidating the mechanisms behind outflow resistance and exploring new avenues to enhance aqueous drainage, thereby providing a foundation for the development of new drugs aimed at lowering intraocular pressure and treating glaucoma. Currently, our understanding of the mechanisms regulating SC development and functionality remains limited, with a lack of specific therapeutic strategies targeting SC. In recent years, advancements in measurement and imaging technologies have revealed the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying SC development, leading to the identification of key regulatory targets. This has enhanced our understanding of SC structural and functional regulation. Furthermore, innovative applications of SC as a target for intraocular pressure-lowering medications and surgical interventions are continually expanding. This article systematically reviews the research on the structure and function of SC, summarizes the key molecular and cellular regulatory mechanisms, and discusses the latest advancements in SC-targeted pharmacological and surgical therapies, providing new insights for the clinical diagnosis and management of glaucoma.

目的:探究间歇性禁食(intermittent fasting, IF)对内毒素诱导小鼠葡萄膜炎(endotoxin-induced uveitis, EIU)的保护作用及其可能的抗炎机制。方法:小鼠随机分为对照组、EIU组及IF+EIU组。16∶8禁食方案(9 : 00—17 : 00进食)。对照组行玻璃体腔内注射磷酸盐缓冲溶液(phosphate buffered saline, PBS),其余两组行玻璃体腔内脂多糖注射。建模后监测小鼠空腹血糖及体质量。光学相干断层扫描和苏木精伊红染色观察评估炎症水平。视网膜铺片行神经炎症相关的观察评价。BV2细胞分为Ctr组,LPS组及饥饿+内毒素组,蛋白印迹及实时荧光定量逆转录PCR技术检测相关蛋白及mRNA表达水平。结果:①IF对体质量无明显影响,可引起血糖显著降低随后逐渐恢复。病程中期起IF干预下小鼠视网膜水肿恢复,玻璃体腔内炎性渗出比EIU组显著减少(P<0.01)。IF逆转LPS诱导的小胶质细胞激活,减轻视网膜神经节细胞及神经纤维损伤(P<0.05)。②饥饿培养抑制LPS诱导的BV2细胞的磷酸化信号转导与转录激活因子1和3及诱导型一氧化氮合酶( inducible nitric oxide synthase, iNOS)的蛋白表达水平(P<0.05),显著降低iNOS、白介素-6等炎症因子的表达水平。结论:IF能够加速EIU炎症的消退,减轻组织结构的炎性破坏,抑制小胶质细胞的促炎型激活。
Objective: To investigate the protective effects of intermittent fasting (IF) on endotoxin-induced uveitis in mice and its potential anti-inflammatory mechanisms. Methods: Mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group (Ctr), endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) group, and IF + EIU group. The IF regimen followed a 16:8 fasting scheme (feeding from 9:00 to 17:00). The control group received intravitreal injections of PBS, while the other two groups received intravitreal injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). After modeling, fasting blood glucose and body weight of the mice were monitored. Inflammation levels were assessed using OCT and H&E staining. Retinal flat mounts were used for evaluating neuroinflammation. BV2 cells were divided into Ctr group, LPS group, and starvation (LG) + LPS group. The expression levels of related proteins and mRNA were detected using WB and RT-qPCR. Results: IF had no significant effect on body weight but caused a significant decrease in blood glucose, which gradually recovered. From the middle stage of the disease, mice in the IF intervention group show edretinal edema recovery, significantly reduced intravitreal inflammatory exudation and cell infiltration compared to the EIU group (P <0.01). IF reversed LPS-induced microglial activation and significantly alleviated damage to retinal ganglion cells and nerve fibers (P <0.05). Starvation culture significantly inhibited LPS-induced expression levels of p-STAT1/3 and iNOS proteins in BV2 cells (P <0.05) and significantly reduced the expression levels of inflammatory factors such as iNOS and IL-6. Conclusion: IF can accelerate the resolution of EIU inflammation, reduce inflammatory damage to tissue structures, and inhibit pro-inflammatory activation of microglia.

青光眼是世界首位不可逆性致盲性眼病,降眼压是唯一被证实有效的干预措施。手术是降低眼压的主要途径,近年来创伤更小、术后炎症反应更轻、并发症更少的微创青光眼手术逐渐在临床得到应用。超声睫状体成形术(ultrasound cycloplasty, UCP)是一种新型微创青光眼治疗技术。本文综述了国内外现有研究,表明UCP在治疗各种类型青光眼中均表现出良好的降眼压效果,但不同类型青光眼疗效存在一定差异。UCP可减少术后局部抗青光眼药物的使用数量,同时显示出较少的并发症和较轻的术后反应。与其他睫状体分泌功能减弱性手术相比,该手术在缓解难治性青光眼患者因高眼压导致的局部疼痛方面尤为有效。青光眼类型、超声探头型号匹配及治疗扇区数量是影响疗效的主要因素,其适应证的准确把握及手术参数设计的优化将进一步提高其治疗效果。本文归纳了UCP治疗青光眼的作用原理、手术操作与术后用药、适应证与禁忌证、有效性、安全性及其疗效的影响因素,以期为其临床应用和研究提供参考依据。
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only proven intervention to effectively prevent visual field deterioration and slow the progression of glaucoma. Surgery plays a critical role in reducing IOP, with traditional glaucoma surgeries focusing primarily on classic filtration procedures. In recent years, minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS), characterized by less trauma, milder postoperative inflammation, and fewer complications, have been increasingly applied and continuously refined in clinical practice. Ultrasound cycloplasty (UCP) is a novel, minimally invasive technique for glaucoma treatment. This article reviews existing research both domestically and internationally, showing that UCP demonstrates good IOP-lowering effects in various types of glaucoma, though its efficacy varies across different glaucoma types. UCP reduces the need for postoperative anti-glaucoma medications, while also exhibiting fewer complications and milder postoperative reactions. Compared with other ciliary body function-reducing surgeries, UCP is particularly effective in alleviating local pain caused by elevated IOP in patients with refractory glaucoma. The type of Glaucoma, matching of the ultrasound probe model, and the number of treatment sectors are key factors influencing UCP efficacy. Accurate selection of indications and optimization of surgical parameters will further enhance its therapeutic outcomes. This article summarizes the mechanisms, surgical procedures, postoperative medication, indications and contraindications, efficacy, safety, and factors influencing UCP outcomes in glaucoma treatment, aiming to provide a reference for its clinical application and research.
年龄相关性黄斑变性(age-related macular degeneration, AMD)是导致老年人失明的主要原因之一,其特征为光感受器的死亡和视网膜色素上皮细胞的变性。该病的发病机制复杂,涉及遗传、环境和代谢等多种因素。细胞衰老是AMD的重要危险因素,表现为细胞在经历有限次数的分裂后进入永久性细胞周期停滞状态。随着年龄增长,衰老细胞的数量增加,并与多种年龄相关的慢性疾病密切相关。细胞衰老的潜在机制包括氧化应激、DNA损伤、线粒体功能障碍、自噬/线粒体自噬缺陷以及表观遗传改变等。在AMD中,色素上皮细胞、血管内皮细胞、Bruch膜、感光细胞和小胶质细胞等不同类型的细胞均表现出衰老及其相关变化。细胞衰老在AMD的发病机制中起着关键作用,涉及多种视网膜细胞类型和血管系统的退化。通过深入研究这些机制,期望能开发出更有效的治疗方法,以帮助患者恢复和保护视力。本文回顾了细胞衰老的生物学机制及其在AMD中的作用,深入探讨了不同细胞衰老引发AMD发病的具体机制,旨在为AMD的发病机制和治疗研究提供新思路。
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness among the elderly, characterized by the degeneration of retinal pigment epithelial cells and the death of photoreceptors. The pathogenesis of AMD is complex, involving a multitude of factors, including genetic, environmental, and metabolic influences. Cellular senescence serves as a significant risk factor for AMD, where cells enter a permanent state of cell cycle arrest after a limited number of divisions. As age increases, the accumulation of senescent cells is closely associated with various age-related chronic diseases. Key mechanisms underlying cellular senescence include oxidative stress, DNA damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, defects in autophagy and mitophagy, and epigenetic alterations. In the context of AMD, various cell types-including pigment epithelial cells, vascular endothelial cells, cells of Bruch's membrane, photoreceptors, and microglia-exhibit signs of senescence and related changes. Cellular senescence plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of AMD, contributing to the degeneration of different retinal cell types and supporting vascular systems. By thoroughly investigating these mechanisms, there is hope for the development of more effective therapies aimed at restoring and protecting vision in affected patients. This article reviews the biological mechanisms of cellular senescence and its role in AMD, exploring how different cell types contribute to the disease's onset, with the goal of providing new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of AMD.

Objective: To investigate a non-invasive,smart device capable of monitoring the quantitative visual behavior of school age children, and to analyze quantitatively the relationship between visual behavior and the occurrence of myopia. Methods: This study recruited 171 subjects aged between 7 and 11 years from the third grade of Shiwan SecondPrimary School and the fifth grade of Shicheng Middle School in Chancheng District, Foshan City. Participants werecategorized into a myopia group (108 subjects) and a non-myopia group (63 subjects) based on results from non-ciliary muscle paralysis optometry. All subjects wore "clips" to track their near-work distance, near-work duration, lighting conditions during near-work, and time spent on outdoor activities between September 21, 2020, and October 10, 2020. Differences in these habits between the myopia and non-myopia groups were compared, and logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the impact of habitual eye use on myopia. Results: The prevalence of myopia was found to be 63.2%. Statistically significant differences (all P<0.05) were observed between the myopic and non-myopic groups regarding average daily near-work time, average single near-work session duration, average near-work distance, average daytime and nighttime near-work lighting conditions, average daily outdoor activity time, and average daily effective outdoor activity exposure. Logistic regression analysis indicated that longer average single near-work sessions and increased average daily near-work time were risk factors for myopia. Spearman correlation analysis further supported these findings, showing a positive correlation between average single near-work session duration and average daily near-work time with the occurrence of myopia (all P<0.05). The predictive accuracy of a model combining average single near-work session duration and average daily near-work time for myopia occurrence was high, with an area under the curve of 0.939. Conclusions: The wearable device "Cloud clip" effectively monitors the visual behavior of school-age children. The occurrence of myopia in this age group may be associated with increased near-work activities. A predictive model incorporating refractive development in myopic children can assess the quantitative risk of myopia, enabling the classification and management of school-age children. Personalized interventions may serve as protective factors against myopia.
目的:探讨青光眼日间手术患者的自我管理行为现状及影响因素分析。方法:采用便利抽样法选取2021年9月—2022年5月于广州市某三级甲等眼科专科医院就诊的223例青光眼日间手术患者。采用一般资料调查表、青光眼自我管理行为量表、慢性疾病自我效能量表和青光眼知识学习问卷进行问卷调查。结果:青光眼日间手术患者的自我管理行为得分为(54.03±6.95)分,其中生活调整维度得分最低。慢性病自我效能与自我管理行为呈正相关(r=0.368, P<0.001)。疾病知识与自我管理行为无显著相关性(r=0.077, P=0.252)。多因素线性回归分析结果显示,患者的文化程度(P<0.001)和自我效能(P=0.028)是自我管理行为的影响因素,可解释自我管理行为总变异的12.4%。结论:青光眼日间手术患者具有良好的自我管理行为,较低的自我效能和文化程度是自我管理行为的危险因素,因此应优先提高患者的自我效能,并提供个性化教育。
Objective: To determine self-management and its association with self-efficacy and knowledge among glaucoma patients undergoing day surgery. Methods: A total of 223 glaucoma patients were recruited from September 2021 to May 2022and they were investigated with the Glaucoma Self Management Questionnaire (GSMQ), The Self- Efficacy in Chronic Disease Scale (SECD-6), and the glaucoma knowledge questionnaire. Results: Of the 223 study participants, the study population had a total GSMQ score of 54.03±6.95 with the lowest score found in the life adjustment dimension. The total SECD-6 score was showing a significantly positive correlation with the total GSMQ score(r =0.368, P <0.001). The total score of disease knowledge was without significant correlation with the total GSMQ score (r =0.077, P =0.252). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that self-efficacy (P <0.001) and education level was independently associated with self-management(P =0.028). Conclusions: Glaucoma patients undergoing daytime surgery demonstrated good overall self-management, yet further improvement was required in terms of life adjustment. Low self-efficacy and educational level were identified as risk factors for self-management. Therefore, self-management programs should prioritize enhancing patients' self-efficacy and delivering individualized education.

Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effects of bilberry extract on oxidative damage and angiogenesis in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Methods: Human RPE cells (ARPE-19) were divided into control, model and bilberry extract groups. The model group was treated with 0.5 mmol/L SIN-1 for 24 h, and the bilberry extract group was treated with 10ng/bilberry extract for 1 hour, followed by 0.5mmol/L SIN-1 for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by CCK-8. Level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was determined using flow cytometry. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were divided into three groups, control group, model group and bilberry extract group. The model group was treated with 10ng/mL VEGF for 8 h, and the bilberry extract group was treated with 10 ng/mL bilberry extract for 12 h, followed by 10ng/mLVEGF for 8 h. Cell migration and invasion were measured by wound healing assay and Transwell assay. Cell angiogenesis was determined by tube formation assay. Results: 1. Bilberry extract had no obvious toxicity to ARPE-19 cells(≤10 ng/mL). AfterSIN-1 treatment , the the viability of ARPE-19 cells was significantly reduced, while incubation with 10 ng/ml bilberry extract could restore cell activity to the normal levels(P<0.001). This concentration was selected for subsequent experiments. Additionally, bilberry extract reduced the level of ROS in SIN-1-induced ARPE-19 cells(P<0.0001). VEGF treatment significantly enhanced the migration and invasion of HUVEC, whil epretreatment with bilberry extract attenuated these effects(P<0.0010). Meanwhile, bilberry extract could significantly inhibit VEGF-induced tube formation in HUVEC(P<0.0001). Conclusion: Bilbery extract possess strongantioxidant and anti-angiogenetic activities, suggesting its potential as treatment agent for AMD.
