Evaluating the myopia progression control efficacy of defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) lenses and Apollo progressive addition spectacle lenses (PALs) in 6- to 12-year-old children: study protocol for a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial
摘要： Background: Myopia is increasing in prevalence and is currently recognized as a significant public health issue worldwide, particularly in China. Once myopia develops, appropriate clinical interventions need to be prescribed to slow its progression. Currently, several publications indicate that myopic defocus (MD) retards eye growth and myopia progression. However, no clinical trials have compared the outcomes of different MD spectacle lenses in the same observational group, especially in mainland China. The aim of the present study is to compare the myopia control efficiency of two different MD spectacle lenses: defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) lenses and Apollo progressive addition lenses (PALs). Methods: The trial is designed as a 3-year, prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical trial of schoolchildren treated with DIMS lenses and PALs. A total of 600 Chinese primary school children aged 6–12 years will be recruited, and each group is intended to include 300 subjects. The inclusion criteria are myopia between ? 1.00 and ? 5.00 diopters and astigmatism ≤ 1.50 diopters. The follow-up time points will be 1 month (m), 3 m, 6 m, 12 m, 18 m, 24 m, 30 m, and 36 m. The primary outcome will be determined by the difference between the two groups in cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction between baseline and the last follow-up visit. The secondary outcome is the axial length, and the exploratory outcomes include ocular biometric measures, peripheral refraction, binocular vision, accommodation, compliance, and the results of questionnaires related to wearing experiences.

Final Results of the Prospective Multicenter Excimer Laser-Assisted High-Flow Bypass Study on the Treatment of Giant Anterior Circulation Aneurysms
摘要： BACKGROUND: Both conventional bypass utilizing temporary recipient vessel occlusion and the excimer laser-assisted nonocclusive anastomosis (ELANA) bypass technique are possible strategies in the treatment of giant aneurysms. These treatments have only been studied in single institutional retrospective studies. The potential advantage of the ELANA technique is the absence of temporary occlusion of major arteries, decreasing the risk of intraoperative ischemia. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risks and potential benefits of high-flow bypass surgery for giant and complex aneurysms of the anterior cerebral circulation. In addition, the effectiveness of the ELANA bypass procedure in the treatment of these aneurysms is determined. METHODS: A total of 37 patients were included in 8 vascular neurosurgical centers in the United States, Canada, and Europe. A 30-d postoperative bypass follow-up was studied by using digital subtraction angiography and/or magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography angiography to assess patency as well as by clinical monitoring in all patients. RESULTS: In 35 patients, an ELANA high-flow bypass was performed and the aneurysm treated. Four patients had remaining neurological deficits after 30 d caused by stroke (11.4%). These strokes were not related to the ELANA anastomosis device. CONCLUSION: This study does not prove that the ELANA technique has an advantage over conventional bypass techniques, but it appears to be an acceptable alternative to conventional transplanted high-flow bypass in this very-difficult-to-treat patient group, especially in select patients whom cannot be bypassed using conventional means in which temporary occlusion is considered to be not recommended.
