2.Effect of ultraviolet rays and mechanism of injury to eyes
Chinese Journal of Radiological Medicine and Protection 2016;36(2):149-153
With continued ozone deletion and increased ultraviolet application,ultraviolet (UV) induced eye injury receives more attention,especially for astronauts,residents on high elevation plateaus and other people exposed to intense beams of UV.Continuous exposure to UV can lead to damage of conjunctiva,cornea,crystalline lens and retina,which are correlated with conjunctivitis,keratitis,ocular tumor,climatic droplet keratopathy,and pterygium.This paper focuses on the effect of UV on eyes,with a systematic elaboration of UV-induced eye injury.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of dipeptide base peptidase 4 ( DPP-4 ) inhibitors alone or combined with metformin in curing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods 90 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in Tangshan Fengrun District Hospital and Tangshan Checheng Hospital were selected and randomly divided into therapy group ( DPP4 inhibitor ) , control group ( metformin ) and combination therapy group with 30 cases in each group.And treatment for three months, the free blood glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and other indicators were compare before and after treatment, and the rates of hypoglycaemia and adverse events during treatment were monitored and counted.Results After 3 months of treatment, the free blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, LDL-C and HbA1c levels were significantly decreased, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) while the combination therapy group compared with the the therapy group and control group with better results.The incidence of side-effect in the combination therapy group is significantly lower than the therapy group and control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).It is no cases of hypoglycemia occurs in the combination therapy group, and had a smaller effect on BMI.Conclusion DPP-4 inhibitors combined with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes has better efficacy and safety.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of parallel scalp acupuncture therapy on hemodynamic function of cerebral circulation in post-stroke patients. Methods: Twenty post-stroke patients were taken as our objects. The cerebral circulation indices before and after parallel acupuncture therapy, were detected with KF-3000 Brain Circulation Analyze, to compare the change of hemodynamics indexes before and after parallel scalp acupuncture. Results: After the therapy, minimum and mean blood velocity of carotid artery (Vmin and Vmean) increased significantly (P<0.001); peripheral resistance (Rc) decreased significantly (P<0.001). And the other indices had no significant differences. Conclusion: Parallel Scalp Acupuncture can improve the state of cerebrovascular autoregulation, raise the velocity of blood, decrease the peripheral resistance, and increase the steady energy, total energy and the ratio of kinetic energy to total energy, decrease the ratio of oscillatory kinetic energy to total kinetic energy.

Objective To establish the method for detemining the content of Icariin in Chuanlong Guci Pian by HPLC. Methods Diamonsil ODS1 C18 Column was used with acetonitrile-water (27∶73) as the mobile phase, detection wavelength as 270 nm, and flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. Results The calibration curve was linear at the range of 0.125~1.00 ?g for Icariin and linear equation was Y=81 601X+10 356, r 2=0.999 7. The average recovery was 99.12% and RSD was 0.65% (n=6). Conclusion This method was simple, accurate and proper, and the reduplication of the result was good, which provides scientific quantitative analysis of Icariin in Chuanlong Guci Pian.

Objective To optimize the technology for processing Fructus Corni steamed with alcohol. Methods With the yield of polysaccharide from Fructus Cornias as the indicators,three factors(of wine volume,moistening time, steaming time)were optimized by orthogonal test . Results The optimal processing technology for processing Fructus Corni is as follows: the wine volume for 25 %,moistening for 2 h, steaming for 4 h. Conclusion The optimal processing technology for processing Fructus Corni is reasonable.

Objective To study the anatomic relationship between the thoracic transverse process and adjacent bony structures and its clinical significance for thoracic screw fixation.Methods The present anatomic measurement used 45 dry cadaveric specimens of the normal adult thoracic vertebrae.We measured the distances from the horizontal midline of the transverse process to the superior,middle and inferior margius of the pedicle,the height of the anterolateral transverse process sheltered by ribs,and the position at the horizontal midline of the transverse process corresponding to the vertebral body.Results The horizontal midlines margius of the transverse processes of T1 to T10 are localized in the plane ranging from the superior to the inferior margins of the pedicle.The midlines of the transverse process are closer at T6 and T7 while more apart at T9 and T10.From T1 to T8,the anterolateral transverse process is totally or mostly sheltered by ribs,but the shelter is much less at T9 and T10.The horizontal midline of the transverse process corresponds to the upper 1/3 or middle 1/3 of the vertebral body.Conclusion Thoracic screw fixation across the transverse process to the vertebral body is safe,reliable and feasible in clinic.

Objective To investigate the correlation of clinical and pathological characteristics of bladder transitional cell carcinoma(BTCC) with platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF). Methods Expression of PD-ECGF,VEGF and MVD were examined in the specimens of 52 cases of BTCC by Envision immunohistochemical staining.All the 52 cases were followed up via interview for a period of 5 years. Results Of the 52 cases 50 provided complete relevant data.The 5-year postoperative tumor-free survival rate was 42.9%(21/49) and overall survival rate was 78.0%(39/50).The positive expression rate of PD-ECGF in G 1 tumors was 17.6%(3/17);in G 2,59.3%(16/27) and in G 3,87.5%(7/8)(P
