AIM: To evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of thickness profile measurement of intra-retinal layers determined by an automated algorithm applied to OCT images from Cirrus optical coherence tomography (OCT) instrument.METHODS: In this prospective cross-sectional study,retinal thickness images at 6mm×6mm around fovea were obtained from 86 eyes of 43 normal subjects with Cirrus HD-OCT instrument.The retinal images from patients were analysis by Cirrus automated algorithm GCA software,including ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer(GCIPL).During this study,operator A would make 2 times measurements to all patients,after that operator B would make another 2 times measurements by Repeat scan model.All the data,including GCL average thickness,min thickness,12 clock average thickness,2 clock average thickness,4 clock average thickness,6 clock average thickness,8 clock average thickness and 10 clock average thickness were measured by SPSS 15.0 software.Standard deviation (SD),coefficient of variation (CV) and interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were calculated from the results of three-times tests by different examiner to evaluate the repeatability and from the results of two different examiners to assess the reproducibility.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to any medical procedure.RESULTS: The average GCIPL thickness of OD was 85.12±3.95μm;the minimum average GCIPL thickness was 83.21±4.41μm;the standard deviation of OD in clock map was from 3.79μm to 4.84μm;CV(95%CI) was between 0.26 and 0.93;ICC was from 0.939 to 0.989.The average GCL+IPL thickness of OS was 84.65±8.73μm;the minimum average GCPL thickness was 81±13.08μm;the standard deviation of OS in clock map was from 8.24μm to 10.56μm;CV(95%CI) was between 0.92 and 4.94;ICC was from 0.264 to 0.968.CONCLUSION: Cirrus HD-OCT GCA software with automated algorithm can offer accurate and repeatable thickness profile of OCT retinal image.GCA is a useful and reliable approach to the measurement of intra-retinal layer thickness,which may improve the diagnosis and monitoring of retinal diseases.

Objective To investigate the effects of circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) on atrial effective refractory period (ERP) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.Methods 30 patients who underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation for paroxysmal AF were enrolled in this study.Using FAM mode,the RA and LA anatomical models were achieved in the CARTO 3 system.SVC,MRA,RAA,LA-A,LA-R,LA-P,LAA,LSPV,LIPV,RSPV,RIPV,CSp,CSd,were respectively located in the RA or LA anatomical model.Before and after CPVI,ERPs were measured in different locations of the atrium using programmed stimulation.The ERPs of the RA (SVC,MRA,RAA,CSp),LA (LA-A,LA-R,LA-P,LAA,CSd),PVs (LSPV,RSPV,LIPV,RIPV) were compared.Bilateral CPVIs were completed in all patients,and PV-LA bidirectional conduction block was achieved.The changes of electrophysiological characteristics of atrium before and after CPVI were observed.Results (1) ERP at different locations in the atrium before CPVI:Comparisons of ERPs at different locations of atrium:RAA had the minimal ERPs[(197.4 ± 28.6) ms (P < 0.01);followed by PVs measuring,respectively,LSPV (213.0 ± 47.5) ms,LIPV (208.9 ± 45.9) ms,RSPV (209.3 ± 43.6) ms,RIPV (213.5 ± 48.1) ms and LAA (218.1 ± 27.7) ms.Comparisons of ERPs in RA,LA,and PVs showed:PVs had the lowest ERPs (211.2 ± 35.2) ms versus RA ERP (227.0 ± 23.7) ms versus LA ERP (241.0 ± 21.5) ms (P < 0.05).(2) Comparisons of ERPs before and after CPVI:Comparisons of ERPs at different locations of atrium showed:RAA [(197.4 ± 28.6) ms vs.(208.6 ± 32.2) ms,P=0.003],CSp [(234.7 ± 29.1) ms vs.(246.9 ± 29.7) ms,P=0.007],LA-R [(242.9 ± 28.9) ms vs.(258.3 ± 26.9) ms,P=0.003],LA-P [(252.2 ± 28.5) ms vs.(261.1 ± 30.2) ms,P=0.039]and CSd [(238.6 ± 28.3) ms vs.(250.3 ± 23.6) ms,P =0.009].ERPs were found statistically prolonged at all different locations after CPVI.Comparisons of ERPs at RAand LA after CPVI showed:RA [(227.0 ± 23.7) ms vs.(235.9 ± 21.7)ms,P=0.002]and LA [(241.0 ± 21.5) ms vs.(249.7 ± 19.9) ms,P =0.001],which were statistically increased after CPVI.(3) A total of 90 episodes of atrial arrhythmias were induced before CPVI which were found at RAA (n =17),LAA (n =12),and PVs (n =36).After CPVI,8 episodes of atrial arrhythmias were induced which were found at,RAA (n =4),LAA (n =3),and SVC (n =1).Conclusions (1) Compared with other parts of atrium,ERPs at PVs,LAA and RAA are significantly shorter in patients with paroxysmal AF.At PVs,LAA and RAA,atrial arrhythmias are easily to be induce by programmed stimulation.(2) In patients with paroxysmal Af:PVs has the shortest ERPsfollowed by RAs whereas LA ERPs is the longest.There is a large ERP gradient change between PVs and LA.(3) The ERPs at RAs,LAs,As,and LA-PV are prolonged after CPVI.(4) Atrial arrhythmia is less likely to be induced after CPVI.

Objective:To summarize the clinical experiences of pediatric en-bloc kidney transplantation (EBKT) at a single center and explore the measures of improving its efficacy.Methods:Clinical data and outcomes retrospectively analyzed for 38 EBKT children between September 2014 and November 2019 from Department of Urology Affiliated Union Hospital Tongji Medical College Huazhong University of Science & Technology. The pediatric donors were aged (63.6±5.7) days with a weight of (4.1±0.2) kg. And the transplant recipients were aged (28.1±1.4) years with a weight of (48.7±4.9) kg. Serum levels of creatinine and basic profiles of both donors and recipients were recorded at Day 0/7/30/90/80/360 post-EBKT. The postoperative occurrences of such complications such as thrombosis, urine leakage, delayed graft function (DGF), proteinuria and hematoma were measured.Results:The one-year graft survival rate was 76.3%(29/38) and the recipient survival rate 100.0%(38/38). Among 29 recipients with long-term graft survival, no dialysis was required at Week 2 post-EBKT and the serum level of creatinine dropped to normal at Year 1. Thrombosis was a major post-EBKT complication with an incidence of 18.4%(7/38). The other complications included urine leakage (20.7%, 6/29), hematoma (6.9%, 2/29) and primary non-functioning kidney (2.6%, 1/38).Conclusions:As an effective way of expanding the pool of donors, pediatric EBKT is clinically feasible.

The paper is aimed to search more natural plant antioxidants and further research and develop new medicinal plant resources in Guizhou. The Guizhou special miao medicine "bod zangd dak" was extracted with 60% ethanol. The antioxidant activity of the different polarity components separated from the extract was tested by DPPH method with ascorbic acid as positive control. The results showed that the IC50 of the different polarity components was as following: ascorbic acid (0.033 4 g x L(-1)) < ethyl acetate components (0.052 3 g x L(-1)) < total tannins components (0.054 9 g x L(-1)) < 60% ethanol extraction components (0.076 7 g x L(-1)) < butanol extraction components (0.110 g x L(-1)) < water-soluble polysaccharides components (0.168 g x L(-1)) < water extraction components (0.174 g x L(-1)) < water components after extraction (0.226 g x L(-1)) < total polysaccharides components (0.645 g x L(-1)). It is concluded that the different polarity components have different free radical scavenging activity and that provides a scientific basis for further search of the active ingredients and the activive mechanism.

Objective To design the small interference RNA (siRNA) specific to human CCL20 gene by RNA interfering technique, construct its recombinant lentiviral expression vectors, and identify these vectors by DNA sequencing. Methods According to Tuschl’s principle, the siRNA was designed and converted into cDNA of shRNA (small hairpin RNA) of siRNA for CCL20 gene. The cDNA was synthesized and inserted into plasmid pHSER-dsRNA-GFP-SIN which was linearized by restriction endonucleases SpeⅠ and SalⅠ. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into competent E. coli. DH5? cells. The positive recombinant colony was selected by ampicillin medium agar and identified by DNA sequencing. Results Two recombinant lentiviral plasmids of siRNA specific to CCL20 gene were constructed successfully. Their DNA sequence analysis completely coincided with their designed sequences. Conclusion Lentiviral vector-based siRNA expression plasmids against CCL20 gene have been successfully constructed and identified. They will be further used for interfering CCL20 mRNA transcription and lay the foundation for CCL20 gene modified human keratinocyte stem cells.
