Objective:To investigate esomeprazole combined with early enteral nutrition on the immune function and intestinal flo-ra in the elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Methods:Totally 78 elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis were selected and randomly divided into the observation group (39 cases) and the control group (39 cases). The control group was treated with early enteral nutrition therapy, and the observation group was treated with esomeprazole additionally. The treatment course was 14 days. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was higher that of the control group (P<0. 05). The abdominal pain relief time, recovery time of bowel sounds, abdominal distension relief time, and the time of serum amylase returning to normal and u-rine amylase returning to normal in the observation group were all better than those in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of intestinal flora disorders in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, CD3+, CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ increased in both groups (P<0. 05), and those in the observation group were higher than those in the con-trol group (P<0. 05). Serum amylase and urine amylase decreased in both groups after the treatment (P<0. 05), and the decrease in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group (P<0. 05). No serious adverse drug reactions appeared in both groups. Conclusion:Esomeprazole combined with early enteral nutrition in the elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis shows significant effect, and the effect may be related with improving the immune function and intestinal flora.

Background Bevacizumab and triamcinolone acetonide (TA) has been widely used in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME) clinically,but the effectiveness of both treatment has disadvantage.Therefore,some researchers try to combine bevacizumab with TA for the management of DME,but its efficacy is controversial.Objective This study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraovitreal injection of bevacizumab combined with TA versus bevacizumab for DME.Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of bevacizumab combined with TA versus bevacizumab via intraovitreal injection for DME were searched from Pubmed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,CNKI.The methodological quality of the literature was evaluated according to evidencebased medicine (EBM),and the quality of the RCTs was appraised based on the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version 5.0.The outcome indicators including the change values of central macular thickness (CMT) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) as well as the safety indicators including topical and system adverse response of RCTs were analyzed with Cochrane Collaboration' s software RevMan 5.0.Results Nine RCTs were included with 665 eyes.The decrease value of CMT was more remarkable in the bevacizumab combined with TA group than that of the only bevacizumab group 12 weeks and 18 weeks after intravitreal injection (WMD =-44.69,95% CI:25.27-64.11,P < 0.000 001 ; WMD =-66.86,95% CI:40.67-93.05,P < 0.000 001).However,no significant differences were found in the change value of CMT in 6 weeks and 6 months after injection between the two groups (WMD =-15.40,95% CI:-4.04-34.85,P =0.12 ; WMD =-2.57,95% CI:-19.62-24.75,P =0.82).The improvement value of BCVA (LogMAR) in the bevacizumab combined with TA group was superior to that of the only bevacizumab group 6 weeks after injection (WMD =-0.04,95 % CI:-0.08--0.00,P =0.05),but there were no significant differences between the two groups at 12weeks,18 weeks and 6 months after treatment (WMD =-0.04,95% CI:-0.12-0.05,P=0.36;WMD =-0.04,95% CI:-0.11-0.03,P=0.28; WMD =0.03,95% CI:-0.05-0.12,P=0.45).The incidence rate of transient anterior response after injection was not significantly different between the two groups (RR =0.89,95% CI:0.49-1.60,P =0.70).Secondary ocular hypertension after injection occurred in 30 eyes in the bevacizumab combined with TA group,but no hypertension was seen in the only bevacizumab group.Conclusions Compared with only bevacizumab,intravitreal injection of bevacizumab combined with TA has a better efficacy in improving CMT but no obvious dominant in increasing BCVA for early DME.Intravitreal injection of bevacizumab combined with TA seemingly has a higher risk of inducing controllable ocular hypertension than administration of only bevacizumab.

Idiopathic macular hole after the internal limiting membrane (ILM) is removed during surgery, the intraoperative optical coherence tomography can be used to observe the presence of debris tissue (RF) protruding into the vitreous cavity at the edge of the hole. Current studies suggest that RF may be caused by epiretinal proliferation and vitreomacular traction, but it is still controversial, and the influence of postoperative anatomical and functional recovery is not clear. Common points can still be found, some of the studies suggest that RF is not conducive to postoperative anatomical and functional recovery during the operation, ILM fragments remain on RF tissues after ILM peeling and re-staining. However, in some studies suggest that RF is beneficial to postoperative anatomical and functional recovery, and ILM fragments on RF are removed. This suggests that whether ILM is removed on RF lead to a certain influence on the postoperative efficacy. There are few researches on RF at present, so it is necessary to understand RF from its essence and assist judgment through histological analysis.

Objective:To define the expression levels of MDM2 gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)and its relationship with p53 protein expression and EB virus latent infection. Method :MDM2 gene expression atmRNA and protein levels,p53 protein and EB virus DNA were detected by nonradioactive in situ hybridization(ISH) ,immunohistochemistry(IHC) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) separately in 46 cases of NPC tissuesand 12 cases of chronic inflammation of nasopharyngeal epithelium (CINE). Result: Fourteen cases of NPCshowed MDM2 mRNA and protein overexpression, 38 cases were p53 protein positive,and 43 cases were EBV-DNA positive. Neither MDM2 nor p53 protein was expressed in any case of CINE. MDM2 expression was signifi-cantly related to p53 protein expression ( P <0. 05), but not to EB virus latent infection in NPC. Conclusion:MDM2 gene may play an important role in the pathogenesis of NPC through interacting with p53 protein.

High myopia (HM) is one of the main causes of vision loss. In recent years, optical coherence tomography and other techniques have shown a variety of vitreoretinal interface abnormalities (VRIA) in highly myopic eyes. Posterior vitreous detachment and paravascular abnormality are the relatively common manifestations of VRIA. Posterior vitreous detachment is classified in several different ways in HM eyes, the onset age of which is earlier in HM. Paravascular abnormality mainly includes paravascular microfold, paravascular cyst, paravascular lamellar hole, and paravascular retinoschisis. The former two are early-stage lesions, the latter two are advanced lesions. VRIA is closely related to many HM's fundus complications, such as myopic retinoschisis, macular hole, retinal detachment and so on. VRIA may develop into myopic retinoschisis, which in turn develop into full-thickness macular hole, and even retinal detachment. Therefore, the examination and judgment of VRIA in HM patients are of great significance for the early prevention and treatment of clinical retina diseases.
