Nanoliposomes are used as a delivery vehicle of drugs or genes in the targeted treatment of cancer and in gene therapy respectively. These treatment methods have shown better therapeutic effects when compared with conventional therapeutic methods. Nanoliposome are also being used to deliver imaging contrast agents in the targeted imaging of cancer cells and angiogenesis, which can result in better monitoring of patients' response to therapy.

The utility of anticoagulants is a significant content of total quality management(TQA)of clinical laboratory.The accurate results of laboratory investigations are closely correlated witll appropriate application of blood anticoagulants.The paper reviews the utility field and effects on investigation result of different anticoagulants,and it also raises the current problems of using anticoagulants and Dut forward corresponding solutions.

Abstract?AIM: To comparatively analyze the efficacy and clinical value of cutting frontal muscular slap or not during frontalis aponeurosis flap suspension in treating congenital severe ptosis.?METHODS: Clinical data of 44 children ( 54 eyes ) with congenital severe ptosis treated in our hospital from May 2013 to October 2015 was retrospectively analyzed. Children included were divided into two groups according to the different ways of operation, observation group ( cutting frontal muscular slap ) and control group ( without cutting frontal muscular slap ) , 22 cases ( 27 eyes ) in each group. The general information, postoperative follow-up, eyelid closure and complication occurrence in two groups were compared.?RESULTS: The general information of the two groups had no statistical difference (P>0.05).After 1, 6mo, the cosmetic correction rate, the rate of overcorrection, and the rate of under correction in two groups had no statistical difference (P>0.05), but the activity of upper eyelid in observation group was bigger than that in control group (P<0.05).After 1, 6mo, the incomplete closure in two groups had no statistical difference ( P>0.05 ) , but eyelid fissure height in natural closed eyelids in control group was higher than that in observe group ( P<0.05 ).After 1mo, 2 eyes in control group were with abnormal feelings in frontal part, and 3 eyes in observation group.After 6mo, 2 eyes in control group were with abnormal feelings in frontal part, and 3 eyes in observation group.There were no complications such as exposure keratitis, eyelid margin deformity, infection, hematoma, and diplopia in two groups.?CONCLUSION: The total therapeutic effects of two different surgery procedures in treating severe congenital ptosis are quite similar.The surgery with cutting frontal muscular slap could improve the activity of upper eyelid and postoperative eyelid closure.

Objective To classify Mongolian medicine prescription by using fuzzy c-means algorithm (FCM) and hard c-means algorithm (HCM); To explore the rationality of two kinds of clustering algorithm. Methods 27 Mongolian medicine prescriptions for treating Heiyi disease from Chuan Tong Meng Yao Yu Fang Ji were set as experimental data, and the data were preprocessed first. MS Visual Studio 2010 platform was used, and C# language was used for research and development. Chinese version and Mogolian version were implemented with WindowFrom and WPF technology, respectively. The medicine prescriptions were classified into 3, 4, 5, and 6 types by using FCM and HCM. Results All categorization with zero classification showed the existence of inclusion phenomena. The medicine in the classification results obtained by the two kinds of clustering algorithm did not exist cross. FCM could produce clustering results with smaller quantity difference and the more uniform classification compared with HCM. Conclusion The two algorithms are correct and reasonable, in which FCM algorithm has better clustering effect, and can be widely used in Mongolian prescription analysis, with a purpose to provide data supports for the research and development of new medicine.

Background The circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs)play an important role in postnatal vasculogenesis and restoration of endothelial injury.Previous investigation illustrated that a reduced ocular blood flow and vascular dysfunction caused by endothelial dysfunction plays a role in the pathogenesis of glaucoma.However,endothelial system accommodation is accomplished with the circulating EPCs.Objective The present trail was to investigate EPCs change in patients with primary acute angle-closure glaucoma (PACG)and explore the role of EPCs in the pathogenesis of PACG. MethodsA prospective cohort study was designed.Thirty patients with PACG were enrolled in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital as PACG group,and 20 normal subjects served as control group.Periphery bloodsamples were obtained fromall the patients and thenstained with saturating concentrations of monoclonal antibodies,FITC-conjugated anti-CD34 and CD133 mAb.EPCs identified by CD34,CD133 were enumerated by flow cytometry,and the correlation between EPCs change and its relative factors was analyzed.Informed consent was obtained from each subject before any medical procedure. Results No significant differences were found in age,gender,vascular-related risk factor,blood biochemical indicators between PACG group and normal contol group(P＞0.05 ),but a higher intraocular pressure( IOP)was displayed in PACG group compared with normal control group ( P =0.00 ).The numbers of EPCs were ( 48 ± 22 ) cells/ml in PACG group and ( 65 ± 20 )cells/ml in normal control group with a significant difference between them (P=0.004).In PACG group,the numbers of EPCs were(60± 19 )cells/ml and (34 ±7 )cells/ml respeetively in phase 1 and phase 3 of optical nerve damage (Z=-3.015,P=0.002 ).There was a negative correlation between EPCs numbers and baseline IOP within a certain range( r=-0.835,P＜0.05 ).However,no obvious correlations were seen between EPCs numbers and blood lipid Level,blood glucose level or glaucoma course ( r =0.343,P =0.227 ; r =-0.203,P =0.419 ; r =0.198,P =0.610 ).The EPCs numbers in PACG patients with cardiovascular disease were(56±22)cells/ml and that of without PACG were (35± 15 ) cells/ml( P =0.005 ). ConclusionsThe numbers of EPCs decrease in PACG patient.These results imply that EPCs might play role during the restore of the optical nerve damage in PACG eye.

Objective To explore the correlation between the recurrence rate of the elderly patients with lacunar infarction and the risk factors including blood pressure, blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides,low density lipoprotein cholesterol values, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and other. Methods 207 over 60 years old patients with lacunar infarction occurred the first time were included in the study. All patients were followed up two years to assess the relapse rate and the risk factors of the patients with lacunar infarction. Results 207 cases of elderly patients with lacunar infarction complicated with hypertension,type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia were 148 cases,22 cases,7 cases respectively, and the recurrence rates of three groups were 8.78%, 18.18%, 14.29% respectively;The patients complicated with hypertension and 2 type diabetes were 6 cases,and the recurrence rate was 34.62%;The patients without hypertension,type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia were 4 cases,and the recurrence rate was 0%. In two years,27 cases of lacunar infarction recurred,and the recurrence rate was 13.04%. Conclusion Hypertension,type 2 diabetes,hyperlipidemia could also be considered as the high-risk predictor factors for the recurrence rate of the elderly patients with lacunar infarction.
