Objective To investigate the clinical characteristic and risk factors of corticosteriod-induced ocular hypertension after vitreoretinal surgery.Methods Retrospective analysis was made based on the clinical data of 866 patients,including 126 corticosteriod-induced ocular hypertension(89 male,37 female,age range 9-70 years old) after vitreoretinal surgery during May 2002 to May 2005.Results All cases used glucocorticoid locally or systemically.Multi-variance logistic analysis showed that male,complicated vitreoretinal surgery,longer hospital stay,therapeutic duration with glucocorticoid,cataracta were the independent predictive factors,while myopia,hypertension,diabetes were not closely related to corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension.Conclusion The incidence of corticosteriod-induced ocular hypertension after vitreoretinal surgery was 14.55%.The important factor leading to ocular hypertension is long-term application of glucocorticoid.
3.THE BLOOD SUPPLY OF THE RAMUS SUPERFICIALIS OF THE RADIAL NERVE, AND NERVUS CUTANEOUS ANTEBRACHII LATERALIS
Acta Anatomica Sinica 1954;0(02):-
1. Fifty upper limbs of adult cadavers were dissected under an operating microscope.2. The ramus superficialis of the radial nerve is about 180 mm long, and springs from the radial nerve at a level about 16 mm below the medial epicondyle of the humerus. As the radial artery, it can be divided into superficial and deep parts by the overlapping of musculus brachioradialis. The junction between the two parts corresponds to a plane which divides the forearm into upper 2/3 and lower 1/3. The width of the ramus superficialis increases gradually as it runs downwards, and its cross section looks elliptical distally and somewhat circular proximally. Each of the two parts of the ramus superficialis receives 1~4 arteries from the lateral cutaneous arteries or muscular branches of the radial artery. Measurements were made to determine the position of the origin of these arteries.3. The nervus cutaneous antebrachii lateralis divides into two branches in the forearm, and receives 2~8 arteries mainly from the lateral cutaneous branches of the radial artery. It usually gives a branch communicating with the ramus superficialis of the radial nerve. The nervus cutaneous antebrachii lateralis can be found easily at the point just 5~6 mm lateral to the junction of the superficial and deep parts of the radial artery.4. The applied anatomy of the vascular pedicle nerve graft was discussed.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(1):59-62
BackgroundOcular melanoma is a malignant tumor with a poor prognosis.To study its mode of pathogenesis and development is helpful for early diagnosis and treatment and improving prognosis. Objective This study was to analyze the location and pathological types of ocular melanoma,and explore the relationship of pathological types with prognosis of ocular malignant melanoma. Methods 110 clinical data and specimens of ocular melanoma were collected at West China Hospital,China.The specimens were examined by hematoxylin & eosin staining,immunochemistry and studying their ultrastructure.The growth location,histological classification,and their relationship with prognosis were analyzed and discussed.The clinicopathological records of the 1 l0 cases with ocular region malignant melanoma treated from January 1980 to December 2007 were analyzed.Results The primary locations of the tumors with respect to the tissue type were:66 cases in the uvea (60.00% ),27 cases in the ocular surface tissue (24.55%),8 cases in the secondary lesion of orbit cavity (7.27%),7 cases on the eyelid skin (6.36%),and 2 cases in the lacrimal sac ( 1.82% ).The neoplasm was classified according to pathological types:spindle-cell A type in 31 cases (28.18% ),spindle-cell B type in 31 cases (28.18%),mixed-cell type in 25 cases (22.73%),epithelioid-cell type in 17 cases ( 15.46% ) and other type in 6 cases (5.45%).The notability of diffusion or recurrence rate of the 5 pathological types showed statistical significance (x2 =14.463,P =0.006 ),and the rank in decending order was:other type,epithelioid-cell type,mixed-cell type,spindle-cell B type and spindle-cell A type.The clinical manifestations of ocular melanoma were dependent upon the lesion position without specificity.ConclusionsThe majority of the ocular malignant melanoma appears in the uvea and ocular surface tissue,and its common pathological types were spindle-cell type followed by mixed-cell type,epithelioid-cell type and other type.The highest recurrence rate is in other type of ocular malignant melanoma.Ophthalmologist should be aware of the clinical manifestation of ocular malignant melanoma.

Abstract: Objective To compare the different effects of body mass index (BMI) and lean body mass index (LBMI) on the risk of all-cause death among elderly Chinese individuals. For the more scientific, accurate and convenient measurement of the elderly physique, analysis and evaluation of the health risk factors of the elderly in China. Methods This study is based on follow-up data from 2014 to 2018, involving 5 990 participants who met the inclusion criteria in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. Participants were grouped according to their BMI and LBMI, and both univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were established to compare the effects of BMI and LBMI on the risk of death in the elderly. According to gender, age, activities of daily living, and comorbidities, subgroup analysis was conducted to study the influence of LBMI in different subgroups. Results The study population predominantly comprised females (52.9%, 3 167/5 990), with an average age of (84.7 ± 10.1) years, and most participants lived in rural areas (55.1%, 3 298/5 990). A majority were non-smokers (82.7%, 4 952/5 990) and non-drinkers (84.3%, 5 050/5 990). The prevalence of hypertension was 32.8% (1 966/ 5 990), diabetes 5.6% (334/5 990), and heart disease 12.9% (774/5 990). In the analysis of the impact of BMI on all-cause death in the elderly, univariate analysis showed that an increase in BMI was associated with a reduced risk of mortality. After adjusted by multiple factors (age, gender, living environment, marital status, average arterial pressure, number of children, smoking, drinking, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, tumor, ADL/IADL, number of complications), compared to the normal group, the emaciated group (BMI<18.5 kg/m2) had the highest risk of death (HR=1.15,95%CI: 1.01-1.30); the overweight group (24.0 kg/m2≤BMI<28.0 kg/m2) had a lower risk of death (HR=0.78, 95%CI: 0.67-0.91). In the analysis of the impact of LBMI on the risk of death in the elderly, compared to moderate LBMI, lower LBMI was associated with a higher risk of death. Multivariate analysis showed that compared with moderate LBMI, a decrease in LBMI increased the risk of death, whereas an increase in LBMI did not show statistically significant differences in mortality risk in the elderly. Conclusion In measuring fitness and quality of life in the elderly, LBMI has better representativeness and practical value.

Objective To observe the characteristics of vertical cast-off bloodstain pattern by different hitting-tools. Methods The regular hitting tools, a kitchen knife, a dirk, a plane set-hammer and an iron pipe, were selected. At a distance of 30 cmaway fromthe wall, the hitting tool with 5 mL fresh chick-en blood made the cast-off bloodstain fromtop to bottom. Then the holistic distribution characteristics ( length , width and density ) of cast-off bloodstain and morphology characteristics ( length , width and contact angle) of first single cast-off bloodstain were analyzed. Results The distribution length of cast-off bloodstain formed by dirk was minimum( P<0 .05 ) . The distribution width of cast-off bloodstain formed by kitchen knife was minimum(P<0.05). Except the pair of kitchen knife and plane set-hammer, the distribution density between each two tools had statistical differences (P<0.05). The length of first single cast-off bloodstain formed by plane set-hammer was longest compared (P<0.05). The width of first single cast-off bloodstain had statistical differences between kitchen knife and plane set-hammer, and between dirk and plane set-hammer (P<0.05). Conclusion The type of hitting tool could be inferred by the specific characteristics of cast-off bloodstain pattern formed by every specific type of hitting tool in crime scene.

Objective:Use a new F-PCR method to develop a hepatitis C virus(HCV) diagnostic kit, test the kit through clinical trial and compare it with immunological method. Methods: Fluorescence PCR(F-PCR) is a method which combines PCR and fluorescence probe hybridization together to measure DNA/RNA. Because in-tube monitoring of fluorescence signal can be done to stand for the quantitity of PCR product. Electrophoresis and UV detection are eliminated, so after-PCR cross-contamination which causes false positive can be avoided. Results:A clinical diagnostic kit for HCV with this method is developed. 512 clinical serum samples were tested with this kit, using HCV FLISA kit from Abbott Co.and HCV Fluorescence RT-PCR kit from Biotronics Co. (B-PCR) as control. The results shows :positive rate is 30.5%,sensitivity 97.3 % and specificity 98.1% . Conclusion: F-PCR is obviously superior to ELBA, and higher than B-PCR in sensitivity. The specificity of those three kits have no statistic difference. F-PCR can be used to monitor RNA of HCV in serum, and could be useful for clinical diagnose and therapy effects monitoring.

Objective To study the clinical features of renal angiomyolipomas with tuberous sclerosis and to improve the recognization of this disease. Methods The diagnosis and treatment of 4 cases of tuberous sclerosis with bilateral and multiple renal angiomyolipomas were reviewed.The age range was 17 to 44 years,two of them were men.One patient presented with the classic triad:facial angiofibroma,seizures,and mental retardation.Facial angiofibroma occurred in three and seizures were found in two,three patients showed multiple extrarenal organ involvement including liver,spleen and bone.Brain CT revealed classical calcified cortical tuber and(or) subependymal nodule in three cases. Results The diagnosis of renal angiomyolipomas in three cases was affirmed on CT scan.However,the giant renal angiomyolipomas in one case can not be diagnosed from renal CT scan which did not demonstrate characteristic fatty tissue whereas the diagonsis was confirmed by ultrasound-guided right renal tumor biopsy and subsequent right nephrectomy for the large leisions.Regular monitoring of one patient was adopted for his mild symptomatic small renal leisions,the other two with hemorrhage in renal angiomyolipomas were reluctant to aggressive treatment and underwent conservative therapy.Follow-up ranged 6 to 36 months, none had recurrent symptoms and no significant growth of renal lesions was observed. Conclusions CT may not be pathognomonic for renal angiomyolipomas associated with tuberous sclerosis,needle biopsy may be needed to exclude renal carcinoma.The choice of treatment is based on tumor size distribution pattern,progression,and associated symptoms.
