AIM:To evaluate the efficacy of treating traumatic optic neuropathy( TON) with mouse nerve growth factor.
METHODS: We searched the Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Medline, CNKI, Wanfang database and VIP to collect randomized controlled trials ( RCTs ) of using mouse nerve growth factor for TON. The quality of the included trials was assessed and poor-qualified trials were eliminated before the meta - analysis was conducted.
RESULTS:Seven RCTs with a total of 399 eyes included were retrieved, and OR=3. 78 with a 95%CI of [ 2. 35, 6.06], the difference was significant (P<0. 01).
CONCLUSION:The existing evidence supports that the prognosis of TON is better when mouse nerve growth factor are adopted in treatment, but there is still a need for well-planned, large-scale and multicenter RCTs to verify it.

PAX6 gene plays an important role in embryological development, and the mutation of this gene may result incongenital aniridia, retinoblastoma, macula hypoplasia, Peters' anomaly and so on. A brief introduction of the background PAX6 gene, and the association between PAX6 and retinal diseases were summarized in this review.

Phyllosphere and epiphytes have attracted significant interest of more and more researchers by their unique biological characteristics. Progress of research on phyllosphere and epiphytes was summarized in this paper, and the special emphasis was put on the characteristic of phyllosphere, microbial communities, invasion and the location of bacteria on leaf surfaces. Some ideas for further studies on phyllosphere microbes were also proposed.

Objective To explore the different characteristics of tumor recurrence after liver transplantation (LT)and hepatectomy(HC)in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The literatures about tumor recurrence of HCC after LT and HC were reviewed and their characteristics were compared.Results There are distinctions of recurrence rates,time,common sites between the recurred tumors after LT and HC,and their correlation factors and mechanisms of recurrence are also different.Conclusion Preventive measures should be strengthened and treatments should be more targeted according to the different characteristics of tumor recurrence after LT and HC to improve postoperative life quality and increase the survival rate.

Objective To investigate the relationship of ventricular and pulmonany function in preoperation,perioperation and postoperation in penumonectomies.Methods FEV 1%,FVC% and treadmill exercise test of preoperation and postoperation were compared.SPO 2 and ECG of preoperation,perioperation and postoperation also were compared.To give airway oxygen during good-lung ventilation in operation in 43 patients.Results Findings of obove mentioned markers measurement in preoperation,perioperation and postoperation at one week,three months were shown the pulmonary function of postoperation was changed appearently when FEV 1%

Objective To investigate the technique of b iliary reconstruction and treatment of biliary complications in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods From Feb. 1999 to Jan. 2003, OLT was performed in 103 patients with end-stage l iver disease. OLT was performed with standard techniques with or without a veno -venous bypass. Reconstructions of biliary tract were performed using choledoc hocholedochostomy (CDC) or Roux-en-Y choledochoje- junostomy (RCDJ). CDC was carried out in 94 cases, with T tube (CDCT) in 62 cases and without T tube (CDCO ) in 32 cases respectively. Among the 32 cases without T tube, 11 had a small tu be placed in the common bile duct through the recipient cystic duct. RCDJ was pe rformed in 9 cases without internal stent. Diagnosis of the biliary complication s after OLT was based on the clinical manifestations, ultrasound findings, MRCP and ERCP. All the patients were followed up regularly after discharge for 12 to 48 months. Results The overall incidence of biliary complications in 103 patients after OLT was 7 .8% (8/103). Of the 62 cases of CDCT posttransplant, biliary complications occ urred in 6 cases ( 9.6% ), including 4 cases of bile leaks following OLT and 2 cases of bile leaks following T-tube removed. Of the 32 patients subject to CD CO, 1 ( 3.1% ) had stricture of anastomosis. Of the 9 cases subject to RCDJ, one patient was complicated with bile leaks at the anasto mosis. Two cases of the bile leaks were drained reoperatively, and others were k ept adequate drained. The patient with stricture of CDCO was cured by balloon di latation and stent placed endoscopically. No death associated with biliary compl ications occurred. Conclusions Bile leaks and stricture of anatomosis are the common biliary complications afte r OLT. Good blood supply to biliary tract and surgical technique are the keys to prevent biliary complications after OLT. The timely endoscopical and radiologic al technique is a valuable nonoperative precedure for diagnosis and treatment of biliary complicat ions.

Objective To explore the selection and clinical effects of internal or external drainage for upper urinary tract obstruction complicated with acute renal failure.Methods A total of 25 cases of upper urinary tract obstruction complicated with acute renal failure were treated with double J(DJ) tube internal drainage(12 cases,15 times) or percutaneous nephrectomy(PCN) external drainage(19 cases,23 times).15 cases of obstruction were induced by tumor and 10 cases of obstruction induced by benign disease.Results The drainage treatments were performed successfully in 23 cases,with the success rate of PCN and DJ drainage being 86.9%(20/23) and 60.0%(9/15),respectively.Postoperative bleeding occurred in 1 patient with PCN.Conclusions PCN is superior to DJ in the treatment of malignant obstruction,but DJ internal drainage may be the first choice for non-malignant obstruction.

Seven crystalline compounds have been isolated from the soft coral Nephthea Bayer collected from the South China Sea, four of them have been identified to be 24-methyl-cholesta-5,24 (28 )-diene-3B, 7B,19-triol (1) , 24-methylcholesta-5, 24 (28)-diene-3B,19-diol (2), 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-diol-3B-ol (3) and l-octadecyl-2,3-dihydroxypropyl ether (4), respectively based on their data of IR, MS, 1HNMR and 13CNMR.
