Application of LGK974 in the preparation of drugs for the prevention and / or treatment of dry eye syndrome

This invention discloses the application of LGK974 in the preparation of drugs for the prevention and / or treatment of dry eye syndrome, relating to the field of biomedical technology. The application of LGK974 in the preparation of drugs for the prevention and / or treatment of dry eye syndrome. This invention is the first to discover the application of the Wnt-β-catenin pathway inhibitor LGK974 in the treatment of dry eye syndrome. LGK974, by inhibiting the Wnt-β-catenin pathway, can effectively protect meibomian gland acini and ducts, restoring normal lipid metabolism and secretion. In a NOD (Normally Ophthalmic Disorder) Sjögren's syndrome model, oral administration of 200-400 μg / kg / day of LGK974 significantly improved dry eye symptoms, including reduced corneal defects and increased tear secretion, alleviating morphological and functional damage to the meibomian glands. LGK974 provides a new targeted strategy for the treatment of dry eye syndrome, especially Sjögren's syndrome-related dry eye syndrome and meibomian gland dysfunction-related dry eye syndrome, and may become a potent and effective drug for the clinical treatment of dry eye in the future.

A multi-dimensional quantitative assessment method and system combining meibomian gland morphology and function

This invention discloses a multi-dimensional quantitative assessment method and system combining meibomian gland morphology and function, belonging to the fields of ophthalmic diagnosis and artificial intelligence technology. It acquires color images of the eyelid margin, infrared images of the meibomian glands, and dynamic videos of gland expulsion upon pressure, inputting these into a dedicated AI analysis engine for processing. Employing an innovative anatomically guided backbone network and a meibomian gland region adaptive module, it achieves parallel automatic quantitative scoring across four dimensions: meibomian gland opening abnormality score, secretion characteristics score, expulsion capacity score, and morphological abnormality score based on gland segmentation loss rate. The four scores are summed to obtain a comprehensive total score, used for the graded diagnosis of meibomian gland dysfunction. By comparing changes in the patient's scores over time, it achieves macroscopic and microscopic evaluation of treatment efficacy. By integrating functional and morphological indicators into a unified automated quantitative system, it solves the problems of subjectivity and fragmentation in existing assessment methods, significantly improving the objectivity, comprehensiveness, and accuracy of diagnosis, and providing a reliable tool for individualized treatment and long-term management of MGD.

A meibomian gland dysfunction treatment device

PendingCN122272283AEyelidMechanical engineering
This invention provides a treatment device for meibomian gland dysfunction, relating to the field of medical device technology. It addresses the technical problem that existing eyelid heating treatment devices can only achieve eyelid heating or require the administration of symptomatic medication before initiating heating treatment, failing to achieve simultaneous heating and medication action. The device includes a frame, shaped like an eyeglass frame, for the patient to wear; temples for fitting the frame around the patient's ears; a heating mechanism fixedly mounted on the frame, comprising a heating plate and heating cotton; the heating plate and heating cotton being fixedly mounted on the frame and conforming to the outer side of the patient's eyelid; and an atomizing mechanism for spraying atomized medication from the inside of the temples onto the patient's eyelid corresponding to the heating cotton. Through the eyeglass-frame-like frame, temples, and integrated heating and atomizing mechanisms, heating and medication are simultaneously administered, achieving integrated and synergistic treatment and improving efficacy.
