Abstract
Objective: To analyze clinical effects of modified Yokoyama's surgery combined with medial rectus muscle recession for treatment of high myopic strabismus fixus. Methods: Retrospective analysis of records of 9 patients (14 eyes) with high myopic strabismus fixus treated from February 2013 to December 2016 in the Department of Ophthalmology, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University. All patients underwent modified Yokoyama's surgery. The temporal 1/2 of the superior rectus (SR) and the superior 1/2 of the lateral rectus (LR) were united 12 to 14 mm, combined with medial rectus muscle recession. The angle of deviation of primary position, the mobility of the affected eye, and the change of CT imaging were observed and analyzed before and 6 months after surgery. Statistical analysis was performed by Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The patients were 5 females and 4 males with an average age of (60±10) years. The duration of high myopia was (33.33±6.61) years. The refractive power was (-23.32±5.95) D, and the axial length was (33.04±2.63) mm. The recession mount of medial rectus was (7.2±2.1) mm (4.0-10.0 mm) intraoperatively. At 6 months, the median esotropia improved from 130 (80-140) prism diopter (PD) to 0 (0-10) PD, and the hypotropia from 20 (15-25) PD to 0 (0-5) PD. The median abduction limitation decreased from -3 (-4--1) to -1 (-2-0), and the median limitation of elevation decreased from -2 (-4--1) to 0 (-1-0). The angle of esotropia and hypotropia significantly improved (Z=-2.67, -2.70; P=0.008, 0.007), and the restriction of abduction and elevation decreased (Z=-3.35, -3.24; both P=0.001). Only 3 patients' CT images were enrolled in a comparative study. Preoperative orbital CT scans showed inferior LR displacement and medial SR displacement with the posterior portion of the eyeball to the superotemporal quadrant of the orbit. After surgery, the mean reduction ratio of dislocation degree of the 3 patients was 28.97%, the dislocation of LR and SR was reduced, and the posterior global part was correctly positioned within the orbit. Conclusions: The modified Yokoyama's surgery combined with medial rectus muscle recession can effectively correct high myopic strabismus fixus, recover the eyeball anatomical position, and evidently improve eye mobility. The clinical effects are satisfactory. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2019, 55: 670-676).

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the types of dietary patterns of women during pregnancy in Shaanxi and their association with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Methods: Data were derived from a cross-sectional program named "The prevalence and risk factors of birth defects in Shaanxi Province" from July to November in 2013. A multi-stage stratified random sampling method was used to extract 15 980 women of childbearing age who met the inclusion exclusion criteria from Shaanxi Province. The questionnaire obtained information such as the pregnancy outcome and the food intake of the study subjects during pregnancy. The dietary pattern was extracted by factor analysis, and the each dietary pattern of subjects were divided into T(1)-T(3) groups according to the factor score. The effects of each dietary pattern on major adverse pregnancy outcomes were estimated by unconditional logistic regression model. Results: Four dietary patterns were established:vegetarian pattern, balanced pattern, traditional pattern, and processing pattern. The multivariate logistic regression model results showed that compared with the vegetarian pattern T(2) group, the T(1) group had lower risk of low birth weight (OR=0.56, 95%CI: 0.41-0.83), and the T(3) group had higher risk of low birth weight in offspring (OR=2.32, 95%CI: 1.59-3.89); compared with the traditional pattern T(2) group, the T(3) group had higher risk of premature (OR=2.62, 95%CI: 1.58-5.01); compared with the balanced pattern T(2) group, the T(3) group had a lower risk of spontaneous abortion (OR=0.73, 95%CI: 0.36-0.89); compared with the processing pattern T(2) group, the T(3) group had a higher risk of spontaneous abortion (OR=1.97, 95%CI: 1.36-3.34) and higher risk of stillbirth (OR=2.96, 95%CI: 1.49-6.26), and the T(1) group had a lower risk of stillbirths in offspring (OR=0.52, 95%CI: 0.33-0.83). Conclusion: The women of childbearing age in Shaanxi have different dietary patterns, and there may be a correlation between dietary patterns and adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
Experiments on turbulence structures and features of a wind field under steady inflow and gusty wind inflows were implemented in a straight-through wind tunnel. Streamwise and wall-normal velocity components were measured using a streamline constant temperature anemometer (streamline CTA). Power spectra analyses revealed the existence of very large-scale motions (VLSMs) under both steady and gusty wind inflows; but new gusty scale motions (GSMs) were revealed under only gusty wind inflows. The GSMs might originate from an ordered external driving force that forces hairpin packets to align coherently in groups with a length scale related to the gust inflow condition. The streamwise wavelength of VLSMs is independent of inflow conditions, while the turbulent energy of VLSMs is associated with the wall-normal height and local mean streamwise velocity. In particular, the streamwise wavelength of GSMs increases linearly with the average value and period of sinusoidal gusty wind inflows, and the turbulent energy of GSMs is sensitive to the wall-normal height and all characteristic parameters of gusty wind inflows, including the average value, amplitude and period. Considerable wall-normal airflows induced by gusty wind inflows were detected and these are negatively correlated with the variation in gusty streamwise velocity, and root mean square (RMS) values of the gusty wall-normal velocity tended to increase linearly with the average value and amplitude of gusty wind inflows.

Abstract
HOTAIR has been reported to be associated with development and metastasis in different types of cancer. This meta- analysis collected all relevant articles and explored the correlation of HOTAIR with lymph node metastasis (LNM) and distant metastasis (DM). A literature collection was conducted by searching PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar and Cochrane Library (up to Sep 11, 2016). The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was calculated to assess the association with strength. Nineteen studies were included in this study, with a total of 1874 patients. The study objects were all Asians. We found high HOTAIR expression in tumor tissues was significantly correlated with LNM and DM, and analysis showed a pooled OR of 3.18 (95% CI: 2.10-4.81, p<0.00001) and 3.93 (95% CI: 2.39-6.47, p<0.00001), respectively. HOTAIR may serve as a novel diagnostic biomarker for cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the changes of sex hormone and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels in young male patients with hyperthyroidism before and after antithyroid drug (ATD) treatment. Methods: Between January 2015 and July 2016, forty male patients with hyperthyroidism aged 19-52 years (with an median age of 33.1 years) were enrolled in the Department of Endocrinology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Blood samples were taken before treatment and at 1 month, 2 months, 3 months and 5 months after treatment to evaluate thyroid function, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone(T), free testosterone(FT), estradiol(E2), prolactin and SHBG. Results: A total of 40 patients were enrolled but only 35 patients completed the follow-up. The patients had high levels of thyroid function, SHBG and sex hormones before treatment. Before treatment, free thyroxine (FT(4)), free triiodothyronine (FT(3)), SHBG, LH, estradiol, testosterone and free testosterone was (0.30±0.12) pmol/L, (9.68±4.73) pmol/L, (146±111) nmol/L, (8.41±3.61) U/L, (19.9±7.7) pmol/L, (29.9±9.5) nmol/L and (0.24±0.08) nmol/L, respectively. After treatment, the level of triiodothyronine, thyroxine, FT(3) and FT(4) gradually decreased to normal (all P<0.001). Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) gradually increased to normal (P<0.001). LH and estradiol levels gradually decreased (all P<0.001). FSH decreased but the difference was not statistically significant. Prolactin did not change significantly. Testosterone and SHBG levels decreased significantly while the levels of free testosterone, free testosterone percentage (FT%), bio-available testosterone (BAT), bio-available testosterone percentage (BAT%), free androgen index (FAI) gradually increased and stabilized (all P<0.001). The difference was not statistically significant between T/LH and E2/LH before and after treatment (all P>0.05). However FT/LH gradually increased and its difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusion: The levels of LH, estradiol, testosterone and SHBG in male patients with hyperthyroidism significantly increased, while the free testosterone level decreased, but they all gradually returned to normal with the lowering of thyroid hormone levels during ATD treatment.

Abstract
Objective: The urine concentrations of phthalate metabolites were used to estimate the cumulative risk assessment in preschool children in Ma'anshan of Anhui province. Methods: Based on the China-Anhui Birth Cohort, the demographic information and urine samples of 3 743 children were collected in Ma'anshan from April 2014 to April 2015. The concentrations of 7 metabolites' [monomethyl phthalate (MMP), monoethyl phthalate (MEP), monobutyl phthalate (MBP), monobenzyl phthalate (MBzP), mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), mono (2-ethyl- 5-oxohexyl) phthalate (MEOHP) and mono (2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP)] of 5 phthalates [dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBzP), and di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)] in the urine samples of the children were measured by solid-phase extration-triple quadrupole high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-isotope method. In addition, the estimated daily intakes (EDIs) of 5 phthalates were calculated according to the metabolites' concentrations. Cumulative risk assessment was performed using hazard quotient (HQ) and hazard index (HI) methods. Results: The M (Q(R)) of seven metabolite concentrations were 29.58 (18.69-48.26), 26.65 (13.44-56.09), 256.86 (150.99-438.51), 0.12 (0.04-0.32), 6.27 (3.71-11.13), 17.94 (11.94-28.42) and 24.80 (16.05-40.32) μg/g creatinine, respectively. For the EDIs of 5 phthalates, DBP ranked first, followed by DEHP, DMP, DEP and BBzP with the M (Q(R)) of 7.54 (4.41-12.85), 3.35 (2.20-5.42), 0.75 (0.47-1.24), 0.71 (0.36-1.52) and 0.003 (0.001-0.009) μg/(kg·d), respectively. The HQ and HI varied with age, gender and sampling season, the differences were significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: These results indicated that risk of cumulative exposure to phthalates was high in preschool children aged 3-6 years in Ma'anshan. Age, gender and sampling season were influencing factors.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the prevalence of hypertension and quantitative relationship between family history and the risk of hypertension among rural residents living in Hanzhong District, Shaanxi province. Methods: A multistage random sampling survey was conducted. Data on the characteristics related to hypertension were collected and physical examination was conducted. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between family history and hypertension. Results: A total number of 2 817 rural residents aged 18-80 with complete information were recruited. The crude prevalence of hypertension was 33.7%. Results from the logistic regression analysis showed that the OR was 2.06 (95% CI: 1.70-2.50) between family histories with or without hypertension. When the first-degree relatives were with the degrees of family history of hypertention as Ⅰ, Ⅱ or Ⅲ, the OR values of hypertension appeared as 1.83 (95% CI: 1.47-2.27), 2.94 (95% CI: 2.09-4.13) and 4.48 (95% CI: 2.17-9.27) respectively. Either father or mother having the positive family history of hypertension, the corresponding OR values appeared as 2.50 (95% CI: 1.84-3.40), 1.61(95% CI: 1.22-2.12) seen in mothers. However, when both father and mother having the family history of hypertention, the OR value was seen 2.82 (95%CI: 1.76-4.51) in the mothers. Conclusion: Family history appeared as a risk factor for hypertension. The number of first-degree relatives with positive family history showed a dose-response relationship to the occurrence of hypertension. Family history in both father or mother might further affect the incidence of hypertension.

Abstract
Objective: To study the procedure of CYP21A2 gene mutation detection in 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) patients. Methods: The detail clinical and biochemical data of 51 patients with 21-OHD [18 males and 33 females, with an average age of (16.4±9.9) years] were collected between December 2016 and December 2017 at Department of Endocrinology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and Sanger sequencing of the CYP21A2 gene were used to clarify the cause of 21-OHD. The genotype-phenotype correlation was also analyzed. Results: The incidences of large deletion, 8 bp deletion, I2G, I172N and F306+T were 19.6% (20/102), 1.0% (1/102), 30.4% (31/102), 25.5% (26/102) and 1.0%(1/102), respectively, and the detection rate of gene mutation in 51 21-OHD patients was 77.5% (79/102) by MLPA test. Except large and 8 bp deletion, all above mutations contained in MLPA and other 8 mutations, including P31L, Q319X, R361L, R357W, V282L, R484Q, G425S and R342W were detected, and the detection rate was 79.4% (81/102) by Sanger sequencing of CYP21A2. MLPA combined with direct sequencing identified mutations in all patients. Genotype correlated well with clinical phenotype in 21-OHD patients. Conclusions: When MLPA or CYP21A2 gene sequencing were used alone to diagnose the cause of 21-OHD, gene mutations in all patients could not be detected. The combination of the two methods can complement each other and fully clarify the underlying causes of 21-OHD.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the relationship of nighttime sleep duration and bedtime with preschool children's obesity, and to explore possible early life risk factors for childhood obesity. Methods: A total of 14 946 valid children from 16 439 pre-school children aged 3-6 years in 91 kindergartens in Ma'anshan city participated in the study. The body mass index cut-offs for overweight and obesity in Chinese children and adolescents aged 2-18 years was used as the criterion for judging overweight and obesity, and pathological and secondary causes of obesity were excluded. The associations of nighttime sleep duration and bedtime with preschool children's obesity was analyzed by using non-conditional multivariate binary logistic regression model. Results: Among the preschool children, 22.4% (n=3 345) had shorter sleep duration. 9.5% (n=1 415) had bedtimes after 22:00 on weekdays and 21.8% (n=3 260) had bedtimes after 22:00 on weekends. The prevalence of overweight and obesity were 16.5% (n=2 466) and 10.5% (n=1 562), respectively. After the adjustent of age, gender, whether or not only child, residence in the last six months, parents' body mass index parents' educational level, diet preference, outdoor activities, TV viewing duration, sleep duration, bedtime on weekdays and weekends, only the shorter sleep duration (OR=1.25, 95%CI: 1.03-1.51) was still positively associated with the prevalence of obesity in preschool children. Conclusion: Shorter sleep duration was positively associated with the prevalence of obesity among preschool children.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of soluble Semaphorin 5A(Sema 5A) in patients of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) and the effect of Sema 5A on osteoclastogenesis in RAW264.7 cells. Methods: (1)Soluble Sema 5A was detected in the serum of 62 RA patients, 30 osteoarthritis(OA) patients and 48 healthy controls(HC) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The relationships between serum Sema 5A and disease activity, radiographic severity and laboratory parameters were investigated in RA patients.(2)RAW264.7 cells were treated with different concentrations of Sema 5A(0,0.5,1,2.5,5 μg/ml).After 7 days, tartrate-resistant acid phosphate(TRAP) staining was performed. The mRNA levels of TRAP, cathepsin-K and matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP-9) were tested using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).(3)Bone resorption area of dentine slides cultured with RAW264.7 cells was calculated after Sema 5A(5μg/ml) treatment. Results: (1)The serum Sema 5A in RA patients[(5.24±0.59)μg/L] was significantly higher than those in healthy controls[(2.93±0.34)μg/L,P<0.01] and OA patients[(2.68±0.47)μg/L,P<0.05]. The Sema 5A level in RA patients was positively correlated with disease activity score with 28 joint using C-reactive protein(DAS28-CRP), clinical disease activity index (CDAI),C-reactive protein(CRP) and sharp scores(P<0.05 or P<0.01).In addition,the serum Sema 5A in RA patients with positive anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide(CCP) antibody was significantly greater than that of anti-CCP antibody-negative patients(P<0.05).(2)After RAW264.7 cells were treated with Sema 5A, the number of TRAP positive osteoclasts increased according to the increase of Sema 5A concentration with maximal effect at 5 μg/ml. Meanwhile, Sema 5A promoted mRNA expression of TRAP,Cathepsin-K and MMP-9.(3)Bone resorption area increased when RAW264.7 cells were treated with Sema 5A(5 μg/ml). Conclusions: Serum Sema 5A is elevated in RA patients and correlated with disease activity and radiographic severity. Sema 5A promotes osteoclastogenesis of RAW264.7 cells.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features and management of male patients with adult-onset idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (AIHH). Methods: Clinical features and treatment of six patients with AIHH between January 2010 and June 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: The patients were all male, with an age of 26 (20-35) years old and they experienced complete pubertal development. The main complaints were decreased libido, erectile dysfunction and gynecomastia. Physical examination found that the testicular size was 15 (12-20) ml and they were fully virilized. The serum luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and total testosterone was 0.1 (0.1-0.8) U/L, 0.4 (0.1-0.9) U/L and 0.62 (0.10-0.90) nmol/L, respectively. Pituitary MRI and other pituitary hormones were all normal. Testosterone was administrated to three patients and the libido and erectile function returned to normal. Sperm was successfully induced in two patients after combined gonadotropin therapy for 4-6 months. One patient had a reversed hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis function. Conclusions: The mechanism of male AIHH is unknown. Compared to those with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, patients with AIHH may achieve better spermatogenesis after gonadotropin therapy. Small portion of patients may have a reversal of hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis function.

Nanocrystalline (NC) materials have fascinating physical and chemical properties, thereby they exhibit great prospects in academic and industrial fields. Highly efficient approaches for fabricating bulk NC materials have been pursued extensively over past decades. However, the instability of nanograin, which is sensitive to processing parameters (such as temperature and time), is always a challenging issue to be solved and remains to date. Herein, we report an ultrafast nanostructuring strategy, namely ultrasonic vibration consolidation (UVC). The strategy utilizes internal friction heat, generated from mutually rubbing between Ti-based metallic glass powders, to heat the glassy alloy rapidly through its supercooled liquid regime, and accelerated viscous flow bonds the powders together. Consequently, bulk NC-Ti alloy with grain size ranging from 10 to 70 nm and nearly full density is consolidated in 2 seconds. The novel consolidation approach proposed here offers a general and highly efficient pathway for manufacturing bulk nanomaterials.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the pituitary hormone changes of patients with craniopharyngioma of different growth patterns during perioperative period and follow up time. Methods: Retrospective studies were performed on 212 cases of primary craniopharyngioma patient who received total tumor excision surgery in our hospital from January 2001 to May 2012. The characteristics of pituitary hormone and associated clinical manifestation during preoperative, perioperative and postoperative periods were analyzed according to the QST surgical classification. Results: One hundred and seventy-seven (83.5%) of patients present preoperative hypopituitarism, 36 of them were panhypopituitarism. The hypopituitarism condition was exacerbated during the early stage of post-operation period. The abnormal rates of HPA and HPT during the follow up were 60.1% and 58.3% respectively and hormone replacement treatment was needed for these patients. Craniopharyngioma of different growth patterns showed diversities in the characteristics of hypopituitarism. Conclusion: QST surgical classification was closely associated with the pattern of hypopituitarism, it can help to optimize treatment and prognosis estimation, and could be important criterion for improving the clinical practice of neuroendocrine monitoring, treatment and health education of patients with craniopharyngioma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on metabolic parameters in patients with craniopharyngioma surgeries. Methods: Totallys 30 patients with craniopharyngioma were included in this retrospective study. They were divided into growth hormone (GH) group and control group according to whether they received rhGH therapy or not. The following parameters, including body mass index (BMI), weight, waist circumstance, transaminase, fasting blood glucose, lipid profile and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were compared after rhGH therapy for 4-6 months. Results: In GH group, patients were 18-46 (30.0±8.8) years old. The duration after craniopharyngioma surgery was (12.9±5.4) years. Before rhGH therapy, they had got sufficient thyroid and glucocorticoid hormone replacement. After rhGH therapy, the body weight decreased from (92.3±20.1) to (87.6 ±14.6) kg (P=0.190), with a reduction of BMI from (30.1±5.9) to (28.2±3.7) kg/m(2) (P=0.120). The waist circumference decreased from (104.4±9.4) cm to (98.8±10.6) cm (P=0.002). Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) decreased from (52±34) to (28±19) U/L (P=0.029), with a reduction of aspartate transaminase (AST) from (46±21) to (33±18) U/L (P=0.035) and γ-glutamyl transpeptadase (GGT) from (59±42) to (29±15) U/L (P=0.02). hsCRP decreased from (5.3±4.9) to (2.3±2.8) mg/L (P=0.006) and triglyceride (TG) decreased from (1.8±0.7) to (1.5±0.6) mmol/L (P=0.028). Fasting blood glucose, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and free fat acid (FFA) were not significantly changed(all P>0.05). In the control group, the above mentioned parameters did not changed significantly during 4-6 months of observational period(all P>0.05). Conclusion: rhGH therapy improves metabolic parameters in patients after craniopharyngioma surgery by decreasing body weight, waist circumstance and fat deposit in liver, as well as lowering TG and hsCRP levels.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the prevalence of prenatal supplementations of iron, iron-containing multi-micronutrients (IMMN) and antianemic Chinese patent medicines (ACPM) and associated factors in women in Shaanxi province. Methods: A sample of 28 367 childbearing-age women who gave birth during 2010-2013 and had specific information of the prenatal nutrients supplementation were recruited using stratified multistage cluster random sampling in Shaanxi province. The information about their basic characteristics and prenatal supplementation of nutrients were collected by a questionnaire survey. Descriptive analysis method was used to analyze the intake rate of iron, IMMN and ACPM during each period of pregnancy, and logistic regression model was used to identify associated factors. Results: The overall prevalence of prenatal iron, IMMN and ACPM supplementation was low (28.99%), and the intake rate of iron was the lowest (5.33%). The prevalence of prenatal supplementation of iron, IMMN and ACPM were lower before pregnancy and in the first trimester than in the second and third trimester. The intake rates for consecutive 2 periods were very low (all were lower than 2.00%). The intake rates of iron, IMMN and ACPM significantly increased year by year. Women living in central Shaanxi had relatively high intake rates of iron (7.22%) and IMMN (16.55%), and women in southern Shaanxi had relatively high intake rate of ACPM (18.50%). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that higher educational level (OR=1.920, 95%CI: 1.617-2.279), antenatal care times≥6 (OR=1.832, 95%CI: 1.604-2.091), etc. were the positive factors for iron intake, and these positive factors were similar to those for IMMN intake. Additionally, rural residence was the negative factor for IMMN intake (compared with urban residence, OR=0.872, 95%CI: 0.788-0.966). Conversely, higher educational level (OR=0.855, 95%CI: 0.746-0.979), higher household income (OR=0.864, 95%CI: 0.796-0.938) were negative factors for ACPM intake, and rural residence was its positive factor (OR=1.285, 95%CI: 1.141-1.447). Conclusions: The prevalence of prenatal supplementation of iron, IMMN and ACPM were low in women in Shaanxi, especially the intake rate of iron was the lowest. The prophylactic iron supplementation before pregnancy or in the first trimester was rare. Measures should be taken to improve the prenatal supplementation of iron in Shaanxi and to standardize the clinical use of ACPM.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the relationship between the prevalence of self-reported myopia and outdoor activities among middle school students and to explore the influence factors of the self-reported myopia. Methods: A total of 12 979 participants were recruited from junior and senior middle school students in in Shenzhen, Nanchang, Zhengzhou and Shenyang by random cluster sampling method between December 2015 and March 2016. All participants completed an anonymous questionnaire to collect the information of demographic characteristics, self-reported myopia, outdoor activities, etc. 12 603 out of 12 979 copies of questionnaire were valid. The prevalence of self-reported myopia was compared among middle school students with different characteristics. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship between myopia and outdoor activities. Results: The prevalence of self-reported myopia among middle school students was 69.6% (8 766/12 603); which was separately 52.1% (1 216/2 335) in seventh grader, 61.6% (1 459/2 369) in eighth grader, 69.0%(1 470/2 129) in ninth grader, 80.0% (1 812/2 265) in freshmen, 79.4% (1 622/2 042) in sophomore, and 81.1%(1 187/1 463) in junior. The prevalence of self-reported myopia showed an increasing trend with the increase of grade (χ(2)=639.67, P<0.001). The prevalence of self-reported myopia was separately 63.5%(4 927/7 756) in non-myopic parents group, 78.0%(2 664/3 415)in either myopic parent group, and 82.1%(1 175/1 432) in both myopic parents group(χ(2)=328.28, P<0.001). Outdoor activities were associated with self-reported myopia. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of self-reported myopia was significantly increased by always staying at home in extracurricular time among the middle school students (OR=1.58, 95%CI: 1.36-1.82). The risk of self-reported myopia were significantly decreased by always physical exercise and recreational activities after school among middle school students: the ORs were separately 0.67 (95%CI: 0.57-0.78) for physical exercise and 0.77 (95%CI: 0.64-0.92) for recreational activities. After stratified analysis by the parents' myopia status, in non-myopic parents group, exercise and recreational activities after school among middle school students decreased the risk of myopia: the ORs were separately 0.68 (95%CI: 0.55-0.82) for physical exercise and 0.76 (95%CI: 0.61-0.95) for recreational activities; in either myopic parent group, OR(95%CI) were separately 0.65 (0.47-0.90) and 0.68 (0.47-0.98). Conclusion: Outdoor activities was negatively associated with self-reported myopia among middle school students. However, the parents' myopia status may affect the protective effect.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression of ether à go-go 1 (Eag1) in human osteosarcoma and its molecular mechanisms of regulating the malignant phenotype of osteosarcoma. Methods: The expression levels of Eag1 in osteosarcoma cell lines and human osteosarcoma tissues were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. The small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to inhibit the expression of Eag1. The abilities of proliferation and invasion in osteosarcoma cells transfected with Eag1 siRNA were determined by CCK-8, colony formation assay, transwell assay and wound healing assay. The osteosarcoma xenograft model of nude mouse was established and tumor growth curve was drawn. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in osteosarcoma cells transfected with Eag1 siRNAs. Results: Eag1 was overexpressed in the osteosarcoma cells and tissues. Compared with the scrambled siRNA group, the cell survival rates of Eag1 siRNA1 and Eag1 siRNA2 groups of the two cell lines were significantly lower. [MG-63 cells: scrambled siRNA group (100.0±4.65)%, Eag1 siRNA1 group (63.57±3.89)%, and Eag1 siRNA2 group (54.13±3.70)%; Saos-2 cells: scrambled siRNA group (100.00±5.46)%, Eag1 siRNA1 group (56.70±5.34)%, and Eag1 siRNA2 group (40.27±5.28)% (P<0.001 for all)]. Similar results were obtained from colony formation assay. The colony formation rates of MG-63 cells: the scrambled siRNA group was (92.00±3.46)%, Eag1 siRNA1 group (60.00±3.06)%, and Eag1 siRNA2 group (53.67±2.40)%; the colony formation rates of Saos-2 cells: the scrambled siRNA group was (92.00±5.57)%, Eag1 siRNA1 group (52.33±5.13)%, and Eag1 siRNA2 group (41.67±2.73)%. Compared with the scrambled siRNA group, P<0.001 for all. The tumor volumes of osteosarcoma xenograft in the Eag1 siRNA1 and Eag1 siRNA2 groups were significantly smaller than that in the scrambled siRNA group after 10 days treatment (P<0.01 for all). The invasion assay data showed that MG-63 and Saos-2 cells transfected with Eag1 siRNAs exhibited the ability of cell invasion, when compared with the cells transfected with scrambled siRNA. (Invasive cell number of MG-63 cells: the scrambled siRNA group was 134.00±3.61, Eag1 siRNA1 group 105.20±2.52, and Eag1 siRNA2 group 91.00±3.01; Invasive cell number of Saos-2 cells: the scrambled siRNA group was 132.30±3.23, Eag1 siRNA1 group 114.30±3.48, and Eag1 siRNA2 group 82.67±6.33. Compared with the scrambled siRNA group, P<0.01 for all. The migration rates were (62.48±1.83)%, (35.98±1.23)% and (32.30±1.20)% in the three groups of MG-63 cells, and (70.15±1.42)%, (41.38±1.34)% and (32.40±1.92)% in the three groups of Saos-2 cells, respectively. Compared with the scrambled siRNA group, P<0.001 for all. Notably, the expression levels of VEGF decreased evidently after Eag1 siRNAs transfection, paralleled with reduction in the expression levels of STAT3. Conclusions: Eag1 may promote osteosarcoma cell proliferation and invasion by targeting STAT3-VEGF pathway and may be a potential therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role of hypoxia on the regulation of innate immunity of human corneal epithelium. Methods: Telomerase-immortalized human epithelial cells (THCEs) were incubated under normoxia (21% O2) or hypoxic (1% O2) conditions respectively. After 6, 12, 24, 48 h culture, the mRNA and protein levels of toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. After 24 h culture, THCEs of each group were challenged respectively with TLR4 ligand lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (1 μg/ml) for 6 h. RT-PCR was used to assess the mRNA level of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), interleukin(IL)6, IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Western blot was used to examine the protein level of inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B α (IκBα) and phosphorylated IκBα (p-IκBα). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the secretion of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α. Results: The results of RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that the expression of TLR4 downregulated 90% and 55% respectively after hypoxic exposure for 48 h. Hypoxia also inhibited LPS-induced secretion of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, expression of MyD88 and activation of NF-κB. The mRNA level of MyD88 was diminished 63%, and the protein expression of p-IκBα was also lowered. Meanwhile, the secretions of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α under hypoxia were reduced (31%, 55% and 50% respectively). Conclusion: Hypoxia attenuated immune and inflammatory response of the cornea epithelium by suppressing TLR4 signaling, and could enhance cell susceptibility to microorganism infection.

Abstract
Myopia has become a major health problem on global scale due to its increasing high prevalence in the past few decades and gradual younger onset age. Accumulated epidemiological surveys have shown that decreased time of exposure to sunlight would be an inducement for the development of myopia. Increasing time spent outdoors and exposure to sunlight might be the most cost-effective and effective measure for children to prevent myopia. This paper summarizes the progress in research of the association between sunlight exposure and myopia in children and its mechanisms to provide new clues for the research on myopia prevention and control.
