Objective To evaluate the diagnosis of blue-on-yellow perimetry and macular threshold perimetry in early primary glaucoma. Methods Humphrey II 750 automatic perimetry was used to test 60 eyes of 60 cases in normal control group and 63 eyes of 63 cases in early primary glaucoma group with white-on-white perimetry (W/W), blue-on-yellow perimetry (B/Y),and macular threshold perimetry (M TP). The results of the visual field defects detected by the three perimetries were compared and analyzed.Results The differences of mean sensibility of W/W, B/Y and MTP between the two groups had statistical significance[t=-3 .01, P=0.0054 (W/W); t=-2.95, P=0.006 3 (B/Y); t=-2.59,P=0. 0150 (MTP)]. In the diagnosis of early primary glaucoma, the sensitivity of MTP was the highest (83%), B/Y was the second (65%), and W/W was the lowest (48%). When B/Y and MTP were combined, the sensitivity was improved to 94% using parallel testing, and the specificity was improved to 87% using serial testing.Conclusions B/Y and MTP are valuable in diagnosis of early primary glaucoma, and the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis can be improved when B/Y and MTP are combined.

Objective To study the retinal light sensitivity of central visual field in normal children. Methods The QZS-Ⅱ automated perimetry was used to assess the visual field of centro-30deg;and centro-6deg; in normal or ametropic eyes in 60 eyes of 5~9 years old children. Results The mean sensitivity(MS)was not influenced by sex,age and laterality and ametropia of the eye.The normal type of dB distribution was obviously higher than the abnormal(P<0.01).We set normal range as 30deg;MS>19.3 dB, 6deg;MS>22.5 dB.The abnormality of value or distribution didnprime;t appear in the same field. Conclusions In normal children,the dB distribution of visual field was mainly of the normal type.We suggest that in evaluating function of visual filed of the children,the dB distribution of centro-30deg;and centro-6deg;field and the value of MS should be included.

Objective To analyze the central visual fields and the ocular fundus changes of both eyes of patients with pituitary adenoma.Methods A total of 70 cases of pituitary adenoma received the examination of static central visual fields of all-liminal values by Humphrey instruments 750 cycloscope and the fundus exams by Topcon TRC-50X fundus photography before operations. Results There were 64.3% patients with decreased visual acuities, 80.7% with the defect of visual field, and 46 .4% with fundus changes. The decrease of the visual acuity was the first diagnostic symptom in 45.7% patients, among whom 28.6% were misdiagnosed as ocular diseases.Conclusions The misdiagnosed cause is that the first diagnostic symptom is the decrease of visual acuity without defect of visual field accompanied by ocular diseases. To avoid the misdiagnosis and the omitter of pituitary adenoma, general examination of visual field should be carried out in the patients with decreased visual acuity and optic atrophy with unknown reason in the clinical diagnosis of ophthalmology.

ObjectiveTo preliminarily explore application and effectiveness of stimulation learning based on a live demonstration system in hepatobiliary surgical training, using laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) as an example. MethodsFrom March 2023 to February 2024, 60 surgical residents undergoing a 4-month standardized residency training at the Liver Transplant Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, were randomly assigned into an observation group (n=30) and a control group (n=30) using a random number table. The observation group received stimulation learning based on the live demonstration system, while the control group received traditional teaching methods. At the end of the training, both groups underwent an operative assessment on LC and completed a resident satisfaction questionnaire. Operative assessment used critical view of safety (CVS) scoring to evaluate surgical safety. Resident satisfaction was assessed using a self-designed questionnaire covering five domains: stimulating the learning atmosphere, increasing learning engagement, improving surgical proficiency, enhancing the understanding of surgical complications, and recognition of the teaching model. The final results were categorized as positive or negative evaluations. ResultsThe observation group had significantly higher CVS score than the control group (4.2±1.3 vs. 2.8±1.7, t=3.57, P=0.001). All 60 questionnaires were collected, and the observation group reported significantly higher positive evaluations in improving surgical proficiency, enhancing the understanding of surgical complications, and recognition of the teaching model compared to the control group (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups regarding positive evaluations for stimulating the learning atmosphere and increasing learning engagement (P>0.05). ConclusionThe results of this study suggest that the stimulation learning model based on a live demonstration system demonstrates good effectiveness in hepatobiliary surgical training and can improve the quality of surgical teaching during standardized residency training for surgical residents.
Objective To investigate the correlation of microperimetric parameters, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT) in diabetic macular edema (DME) eyes. Methods It is a prospective, no controlled, open study. Twenty-four consecutive patients (40 eyes) with DME were included. There were 10 males (18 eyes),14 females (22 eyes); aged from 41 to 79 years, with the mean age of (56.84±8.96) years. All the patients were type 2 diabetes, the average duration of diabetes was 8 years. BCVA was evaluated using the international Snellen E vision test chart, and then recorded as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). CRT was measured by Cirrus HD-OCT4000. MAIA microperimetric parameters were evaluated, including average threshold (AT) of retinal sensitivity, macular integrity index (MI), fixating points within a circle of 1° (P1) and 2° of radius (P2), bivariate contour ellipse area (BCEA) considering 63% and 95% of fixating points (A63,A95), and horizontal and vertical axes of that ellipse (H63,H95,V63,V95). Pearson correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the association between these variables. The independent factor influenced the type of fixation was analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis. Results Strong correlations of logMAR BCVA with CRT (r=0.58,P=0.000), V63 (r=0.44,P=0.004), V95 (r=0.41,P=0.008), MI (r=0.36,P=0.024), AT (r=−0.61,P=0.000), P1 (r=−0.41,P=0.009), P2 (r=−0.38,P=0.015) were found. AT was correlations with P1 (r=0.53,P=0.000), P2 (r=0.51,P=0.001), A63 (r=−0.39,P=0.012), A95 (r=−0.40,P=0.012), V63 (r=−0.53,P=0.000), V95 (r=−0.46,P=0.003), MI (r=−0.50,P=0.001). There was no correlation between AT and CRT (r=−0.21,P=0.190). Forty eyes were included in this study, 8 eyes (20%) had stable fixation,14 eyes (35%) had relatively unstable fixation,18 eyes (45%) had unstable fixation. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that fixation classification was independently affected by P1. Conclusions In DME eyes, logMAR BCVA was positively correlated with CRT, negatively correlated with AT, P1 and P2. There is no correlation between AT and CRT. The fixation classification was independently affected by P1.
Objective To observe the visual field loss after 577 nm krypton pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP) in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods A prospective clinical studies. Forty-six eyes of 26 patients with proliferative DR (PDR) and severe non-proliferative DR (NPDR) diagnosed by clinical examination from No. 306 Hospital of PLA during January 2014 and December 2015 were included in this study. Among them, 21 eyes of NPDR and 20 eyes of PDR; 13 eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) (DME group) and 28 eyes without DME (non-DME group). All eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), fundus color photography, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) examinations. The visual field index (VFI) and visual field mean defect (MD) values were recorded by Humphrey-7401 automatic visual field examination (center 30° visual field). The BCVA of DR eyes was 0.81±0.28; the VFI and MD values were (89.8±8.4)% and −7.5±3.85 dB, respectively. The BCVA of the eyes in the without DME group and DME group were 0.92±0.20 and 0.57±0.27, the VFI were (90.86±7.86)% and (87.46±9.41)%, the MD values were −6.86±3.43 and 8.87±4.48 dB. PRP was performed on eyes using 577 nm krypton laser. The changes of VFI, MD and BCVA were observed at 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment. Results Compared with before treatment, the VFI of DR eyes decreased by 12.0%, 12.3% and 14.8% (t=7.423, 4.549, 4.79; P<0.001); the MD values were increased by −4.55, −4.75, 6.07 dB (t=−8.221, −5.313, −5.383; P<0.001) at 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment, the differences were statistically significant. There was no difference on VFI (t=1.090, −0.486; P>0.05) and MD value (t=−0.560, −0.337; P>0.05) at different time points after treatment. Compared with before treatment, the BCVA was significantly decreased in DR eyes at 1 month after treatment, the difference was statistically significant (t=2.871, P<0.05). Before and after treatment, the BCVA of the DME group was lower than that of the non-DME group, the difference were statistically significant (t=4.560, 2.848, 3.608, 5.694; P<0.001); but there was no differences on the VFI (t=1.209, 0.449, 0.922, 0.271; P>0.05) and MD values (t=1.582, 0.776, 0.927, 1.098; P>0.05) between the two groups. Conclusion The range of 30° visual field loss is about 12%-14.8% after 577 nm krypton laser PRP for DR. VFI and MD can quantitatively analyze the and extent of visual field loss after PRP treatment.
Objective To investigate the characteristic of the multifocal visual evoked potentials(MVEP)and the visual function across the visual field in anisometropic amblyopes and isometropic amblyopes. Methods MVEP from 32 anisometropic amblyopic eyes and 31 control eyes were tested. Results In anisometropic amblyopic eyes,the latencies of MVEP were significantly prolonged.The amplitudes of MVEP were significantly attenuated in the central region of the visual field,and these phenomena gradually reduced with the increase of the eccentricity. Conclusion The visual function of anisometropic amblyopic eyes is reduced more significantly in the central region than in the peripheral region of the visual field.
