Journal of Third Military Medical University 2001;23(2):211-214
Objective To observe the effects of epithelial growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on wound healing of the penetration keratoplasty (PKP) with autograft in rabbits. Methods After the establishment of penetrating keratic autograft model on 24 rabbits, they were equally divided into EGF-, bFGF-, EGF+bFGF-treated and control groups. The wound healing of all the animals were observed with healing intensity, liquid scintillation counter, AgNORs staining, VG staining and transmission electron microscopy. Results ①EGF, bFGF, and EGF+bFGF increased the limiting pressure of the wounds and the 3H-TdR incorporation. ②The fibroblast cells and its secreting proliferative collagen in both the bFGF group and EGF+bFGF group were more well-arranged. Conclusion ①EGF, bFGF, EGF+bFGF can obviously elevate the intensity of wound healing after PKP and enhance the synthesis of DNA. ②The effect of this agent combination is just as the same as bFGF applied alone 14 d after the operation. ③bFGF can improve the quality of wound healing after PKP.

Objective To observe the effect of epidemic growth factor (EGF) combining with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on wound healing of the penetrative keratic autoplasy in rabbits. Methods All 18 rabbits (36 eyes) were randomly divided into 9 groups and undergone penetrative keratic autoplasy, eyedrop.Diameters of the trephines were all 6 mm. Liquid scintillation counter was used to measure the incorporation rate of 3H-TdR. Pressure-detector was used to survey the intensity of keratic wound healing. AgNORs staining was used to count the fibroblast cells at keratic wound. VG staining, AgNORs staining and transmission electron microscopy were used to observe the morphological changes of keratic wound. Results (1) Both the wound intensity and the number of fibroblast cells of combination groups were higher than the 2 control groups in 8 days. (2) From the 14 th day to 21 st day, the wound intensity, the number of fibroblast cells and the incorporation rate of 3H-TdR in wound healing had no obvious difference from the positive control groups. Conclusions At the primary time, EGF combining with bFGF topic is more efficient to accelerate the wound healing of PKP. But the effect of this combination topic is just the same as bFGF topic alone 14 days later.

Objective To investigate regional systolic function in left ventricle(LV) and postsystolic shortening(PSS) in patients with essential hypertension with different remodeling patterns of LV by strain and strain rate imaging. Methods According to the level of LV mass index and relative wall thickness, forty patients with hypertension were divided into LV normal geometry(LVN) group and LV remodeling(LVR) group, with thirty healthy subjects as control. The strain and strain rate were compared among the basal,middle and apex segments. Results Compared with control, systolic peak strain and strain rate in both groups of LVN and LVR were decreased significantly(P<0.05). Prevalence of PSS in LVR group (55%) was higher than that in LVN group(39%) and control(22%) with significant differences(P<0.01).Conclusions High prevalence of pathologic PSS in patients with hypertension could implied that unbalance of segmental motion in regional myocardial ischemia. However,presence of PSS in healthy subjects might be the result of synchronization and balance of normal myocardium under physical condition.
