Background Wearing of soft contact lens,as one of the important methods to correct ametropia,has been widely applied at present.The clinically deleterious effects of soft contact lens have been reported,but researches about influence of apoptosis of corneal epithelial cells are scant.Objective This study was to detect and compare the ratio of apoptosis of corneal epithelial cells between the patients with contact lens wearing and without contact lens wearing,and explore the influence of soft contact lens wearing for long term on growth of corneal epithelial cells after injury.Methods A retrospective nest case-controlled study was designed.Forty eyes of 20 myopic patients with wearing of soft contact lens for ≥5 years and 40 eyes of 20 myopic patients without wearing of soft contact lens were included in Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College.All the patients received the off-flap epipolis laser in situ keratomileusis (Epi-LASIK) from 2010 October to 2011 June.The corneal flaps were collected during the surgery.The apoptosis of corneal epithelial cells was detected by flow cytometry(FCM),and the difference of apoptotic proportion between the two groups was compared using independent sample t test.Results The FCM scatter plot showed that compared to the without contact lens wearing group,the early stage of apoptotic cells with high staining annexin V and low staining proaium iodide (PI) were much more,and survival cells with low staining annexin V and PI were less,and necrotic and late stage of apoptotic cells with high staining of annexin V/PI were more in the with contact lens wearing group.The early stage of apoptosis proportion of corneal epithelial cells was (11.23 ± 5.31)% in the with contact lens wearing group,and that in the without contact lens wearing group was (7.31± 5.43)%,showing a significant difference between them (t=2.754,P=0.008).Conclusions A long term wearing of contact lens induce more apoptosis of corneal epithelial cells,which can result in a disorder of structure and function of ocular surface during the wound healing stage.

Objective To approach the treatment principle of lumbar spondylolisthesis with spina bifida occulta. Methods Twenty-six patients(male19,female 7,average 23.2 years old)with spondylolisthesis and spina bifida occulta were analyzed retrospectively.All cases were evaluated by radiological examinations including X-rays,computed tomography,magnetic resonance image.Based on the radiological results,the degeneration of intervertebual disc were varied by Ⅰ~Ⅴ types.Meyerdin’s score was used to evaluate the severe slip of the body of spondylolysis.At same time spina bifida occulta was divided into 4 models as follows,type A meant that the semi-lamina of sacrum was hypoplasia and still linked with spinous process;type B meant that the both sides of the lamina of sacrum was hypoplasia and the spinous process was free;type C meant that the lamina of sacrum was absent;type D meant that the spina bifida occulta was companied by other deformities such as the round formation of the end-plate of sacrum,the deformity of the transverse process of L5. Results The modality of the operations included 9 cases in single-vertabra fixation,13 cases in single-segment fixation,4 cases in two-segment fixation.All patients had been follow-up for 6~37 months(average 11.2 months).The effect of treatment was also obtained(8 in excellent,13 in good,5 in fair). Conclusions As for how to do with spondylolisthesis with spina bifida occulta(SBO),the type of SBO,degeneration scores of the disc and the degree of the slip of spondylolysis should be taken into consideration.
