Abstract? AlM: To observe the clinical effect of posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis ( PCCC ) in phacoemulsification with posterior capsular rupture.?METHODS: Thrity-eight age-related cataract patients (38 eyes) from March 2013 to October 2013 were selected as experimental group and 50 age - related cataract patients ( 50 eyes ) from March 2013 to October 2013 as control group. ln experimental group, PCCC were used in the intraoperative posterior capsule tears in phacoemulsification. And in control group phacoemulsification was applied. The visual acuity and surgical complications were compared between two groups, the follow-up period was continued to 3mo after operation.?RESULTS: The visual acuity and corneal edema in two groups had statistically significant ( P<0. 05 ) at 1d after operation. Three months after operation, the visual acuity and corneal edema in two groups was not statistically significant ( P > 0. 05 ). At 1d after operation, the intraocular pressure in two groups was not statistically significant (P>0. 05). Three months after operation, the pupil and cystoid macular edema, retinal detachment in two groups was not statistically significant (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSlON:PCCC can improve the therapeutic effect and prevent surgical complications for phacoemulsification with posterior capsular rupture.

Quetiapine is an atypical antipsychotic drug with a benign side effect profile. However, recent studies have reported that thyroid dysfunction is associated with quetiapine treatment. The authors report a patient with DSM-IV bipolar I disorder who developed subclinical hypothyroidism during quetiapine treatment. The patient showed no significant clinical symptoms, but only abnormal thyroid function test findings including antithyroglobulin antibody. The abnormal thyroid function test findings were normalized after discontinuation of quetiapine. The subclinical hypothyroidism developed during quetiapine treatment may be associated with autoimmune process.

Objective To study effects of tethered spinal cord on functions of bladder and urethra. Methods Thirty six patients with tethered spinal cord were evaluated by video urodynamic studies. Filling phase function of bladder was evaluated by compliance of bladder and the presence of vesicoureteral reflux; voiding phase function of bladder was evaluated by maximal detrusor pressure; the synergy between detrusor and external urethral sphincter and continence of urethra were evaluated by voiding study with synchronous X ray image and pressure flow plot. Results 50% patients was diagnosed as detrusor areflexia with low compliance bladder, which was the main type of neurogenic bladder for patients with tethered spinal cord. And 22% was diagnosed as detrusor hyperreflexia. The incidence (83%)of damage of kidney function in patients with detrsusor areflexia and low compliance was significantly higher than patients with detrusor hyperreflexia ( P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of midodrine (Gutron) in female patients with stress incontinence. Methods A randomized,double-blind,parallel,placebo-controlled,multicentric study was carried out.136 female patients with stress incontinence.68 cases in study group received Gutron (2.5 mg,thrice daily) for a course of 4 weeks.68 cases in control group received placebo in the same manner. Results 129 cases completed the treatment.The mean quantity of incontinent urine decreased by 9.9 g in those receiving Gutron ( n =66) and by 3.1 g in placebo ( n =63),respectively ( P 0.05). Conclusions Midodrine hydrochloride at the dose of 2.5 mg thrice daily has greater efficacy on female patients with stress incontinence than placebo, and the tolerability of midodrine was equivalent to that of placebo.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective mechanism of recombinant bactericidal permeability-increasing protein 21(rBPI21) in rat endotoxemia.METHODS The different dosage of rBPI21 in endotoxemia rats was injected and the changes in lipopolysaccharide(LPS), lipopolysaccharide binding protein(LBP) and tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF?) contents in blood of different group rats were continuously observed.RESULTS At 6 and 12 hours,the levels of LPS in rBPI21 treatment 1 group(rBPI21 dosage 0.625 mg/kg) were significantly lower than those in endotoxin group at the same time.Serum LBP and TNF? in rBPI21 treatment 1 group were both lower than those in endotoxin group at any time point.Compared with the endotoxin group,the levels of LPS,LBP,and TNF? in rBPI21 treatment 2,3 and 4 groups(rBPI21 dosage 1.25 mg/kg,2.5mg/kg,and 5.0mg/kg,respectively) markedly dropped at any time points,the survival rates were increased from 16.7%(endotoxin group) to 58.3%,91.7% and 100%(rBPI21 treatment 2,3,and 4 groups) individually.CONCLUSIONS The protection of rBPI21 in endotoxemia rats is primarily achieved through neutralizing LPS,decreasing LPS activity in vivo and inhibiting LBP and TNF-? synthesis.
