Objective To investigate the effect of transient receptor potential M4 (TRPM4) on autonomous regulation disorder of cerebral blood flow following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rats.Methods A total of 120 clean grade male SD rats were selected.They were divided into sham operation,SAH,negative control,and treatment groups according to the random number table.The dead rats were excluded.A SAH model was induced by using the suprasellar cistern injection method with a stereotaxic apparatus.Isotonic saline 0.2 ml was injected into the rats of the sham operation group and negative control group respectively,and autologous tail arterial blood 0.2 ml was injected into the rats of the SAH group and the treatment group respectively.The isotonic saline solution was continuously pumped into lateral ventricle of rats via implantable micro-pump in the sham operation group and the SAH group respectively,and the concentration of 0.03 mol/L of TRPM4 blocking agent was continuously pumped into the lateral ventricles of rats in the control group and the treatment group respectively.The 4 groups of rats received the regional cerebral blood flow and whole cerebral blood flow detection on day 3,5,and 7,respectively.Results One hundred and six (88.3%) of the 120 SD rats survived to the time point of study,data analyses were performed in the 4 groups (with 21 rats in each group) respectively (n=7 in each time point).There were significant differences in cerebral cortex local and whole cerebral blood flow at day 3,5,and 7 in the sham operation,SAH and negative control groups (all P<0.05).Cerebral cortex local cerebral blood flow (141±18,148±24,and 168±19 PU,respectively at day 3,5,and 7) and whole cerebral blood flow (93±5,85±5,and 85±6 ml/[100 g·min],respectively at day 3,5,and 7 in the SAH group) were decreased significantly compared with the sham operation group (cortex local cerebral blood flow:235±17,220±24,and 224±20 PU),whole cerebral blood flow (141±10,147±8,and 143±8 ml/[100 g·min]),all P<0.05).Cerebral cortex local and whole cerebral blood flow (cortical local cerebral blood flow:183±26,173±26,and 187±15 PU,whole brain:114±10,104±9,and 119±5 ml/(100 g·min) in the treatment group were significantly increased compared with the SAH group (all P<0.05).Conclusion TRPM4 has an obvious effect on improving the autonomous regulation disorder of cerebral blood flow after SAH.

Objective:To observe the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of ciliary body tumors.Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From November 2011 to March 2023, 8 cases (8 eyes) with ciliary body tumours confirmed by pathohistological examination at the Department of Ocular Oncology, Beijing Tongren Hospital were included in the study. Patients' age, gender, involved eyes, symptoms, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, cataract, lens subluxation, and imaging manifestations were collected in detail. All affected eyes were treated surgically. The follow-up time after surgery ranged from 1 to 10 years. The patients' clinical presentation as well as imaging, pathohistological features and treatment and prognosis were analysed retrospectively.Results:Among 8 cases (8 eyes), there were 3 males (3 eyes) and 5 females (5 eyes), 3 and 5 eyes in the right and left eyes, respectively. The median age was 44 years. Ciliary body medulloepitheliomas, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, leiomyoma, schwannoma, and adenoma of the nonpigmcnted ciliary epithelium were in 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, and 1 eyes, respectively. All reported decreased or loss of vision. Cataract, vitreous opacity, red eye and or (ocular pain), retinal detachment, lens subluxation, and secondary glaucoma were 6, 4, 4, 2, 1, and 1 eyes, respectively. Diagnostic imaging was consistent with pathological findings in 3 eyes. The first surgery was performed for enucleation and orbital implantation in 2 eyes, the patients were 9 and 10 years old with medullary epithelioma; the follow-up time after surgery was 1 and 5 years, respectively. Local tumour resection was performed in 6 eyes. Among them, 3 eyes with benign tumours were followed up for 1 to 9 years after surgery; 2 eyes showed significant improvement in visual acuity, 1 eye with adenoma of the nonpigmcnted ciliary epithelium had a preoperative BCVA of finger count/1 m, and a postoperative BCVA of 0.5, and 1 eye with leiomyoma had a preoperative BCVA of 0.06, and a postoperative BCVA of 0.5; and 1 eye was lost to follow-up. Malignant tumour in 3 eyes, of which 2 eyes recurred after surgery. Re-operation for enucleation and local tumour excision combined with local cryotherapy in 2 eyes of recurrence were 1 eye each, respectively. The follow-up period after surgery was 2 and 4 years, respectively. No recurrence after surgery in 1 eye, but there was no significant improvement in visual acuity during follow-up. No recurrence or metastasis was observed in any of the eyes during the follow-up period or at the final follow-up.Conclusions:Ciliary body tumour types and clinical presentations are complex and varied; imaging can detect tumours but is poor at determining the nature of the lesion. Benign tumours do well with local excision surgery; malignant tumours do well with enucleation.

Objective To describe the flow of tuberculosis (TB) cases for medical care in China in 2014.Methods The analysis and visualization of reported flow of TB cases were conducted with software R to indicate the case distribution/flow and the levels of hospital where TB cases sought medical care in different provinces.Results In a province,the TB cases mainly flowed to the province capital,but the inter-provincial flow was mainly to neighbor provinces and from central or westem provinces to eastem provinces (municipality),such as Beijing,Shanghai and Guangdong.The grade Ⅲ (A) hospitals were the choice of most TB cases seeking medical care in other provinces.Conclusion The epidemic situation of TB in China is still serious,and the flow of TB cases would facilitate the spread of the disease.It is necessary to strengthen the research on influence of TB case flow for seeking medical care on the spread of TB to provide evidence for better TB prevention and control.

Background Cornea astigmatism can be effectively corrected by implanting Toric intraocular lens (IOL) during cataract surgery and therefore improve visual acuity of patients.However,the decentration and rotation position errors were inevitable sometime.What's the difference of effect of position errors on quality of image between spherical IOL and Toric IOL needs further research.Objective This study was to evaluate the optical performance and wavefront with rotation and decentration of Toric IOL.Methods Different decentration for SN60AT IOL(spherical IOL) and Toric IOL in Hwey-Lan Lion model eyes was set with the role as follows:decentration 0.25 mm to 0.75 mm in a 5°-interval from 0° to 90°.Furthermore,Toric IOL was rotated at 5° and 10°,respectively.Then the image performances of SN60AT IOL and Toric IOL at different decentration distances and rotated degrees were evaluated with modulation transfer function (MTF) and value of wavefront aberration under all conditions.Results At the centration,the MTF curves of spherical IOL and Toric IOL were similar under 3,4 and 5 mm pupil diameter at each spatial frequency.Under the condition of 4 mm pupil diameter,when the decentration was 0.25 mm,the MTF values of SN60AT IOL at 6 c/d and 12 c/d were 0.581 087 and 0.411 960,respectively.T3 IOL were 0.454 259 and 0.382 313,T4 IOL were 0.426 020 and 0.360 490,T5 IOL were 0.425 606 and 0.359 877.When the decentration was 0.50 mm,the MTF values of SN60AT at 6 c/d and 12 c/d were 0.573 073 and 0.412 787,respectively.T3 IOL were 0.450943 and 0.379481,T4 IOL were 0.423 153 and 0.356 664,T5 IOL were 0.422 881 and 0.356 230.When the decentration was 0.75 mm,the MTF values of SN60AT at 6 c/d and 12 c/d were 0.560 038 and 0.413 624,respectively.T3 IOL were 0.445 597 and 0.374 322,T4 IOL were 0.418 522 and 0.350 087,T5 IOL were 0.418 468 and 0.349 976.When the IOL decentralized along 0°,5°,10°,90°meridian line,the MTF values were almostly same.The root mean square (RMS) of spherical IOL and Toric IOL was increased when the IOL decentralized from 0 mm to 0.75 mm,with the most increasing level in coma aberration and slight increase in trefoil aberration.When the T4 IOL decentralized from centre to 0.75 mm,the coma increased from 0 to C(3,-1)-0.049 79 μm,C (3,1)-0.037 59 μm and the trefoil aberration increased from 0 to C (3,3) 0.005 72 μm,C (3,-3) 0.004 64 μm.With the increase of rotation degrees (from 5°to 10°) of Toric IOL,the MTF was worse at high spatial frequency.Toric IOL rotation caused the increase of astigmatism and residual astigmatism and spherical error,but not high order aberration.Conclusions The tolerance of Toric IOL to decentration is very close to the spherical IOL,and optical performance is only associated with the amount of decentration but not direction.The aberration caused by Toric IOL decentration is mainly coma.The rotation of Toric IOL causes astigmatism error but not high order aberrations.

Objective: In this study,we examined the effects of Shizhenqing granule(SZQG)on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis and serum inflammatory factors in a rat model of chronic eczema,in or-der to explore the mechanism of action of SZQG in treatment of this disease.Methods: Sixty Sprague—Dawley male rats were randomly divided into six groups(with 10 rats per group): blank group; model group; positive control group(prednisone); and the low-,medium-,and high-dose SZQG groups.Except for the blank group,rats in all other groups were treated with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene to induce chronic eczema.These rats were administered prednisone or SZQG for 7 consecutive days after successful establishment of the chronic eczema model,and samples were collected 12 h after the last administration.The degree of skin lesions and the changes in serum levels of corticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH),adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),cortisol(CORT),inter-leukin(IL)-4,interferon(IFN)-γ,IL-25,and IL-31 among the groups were compared.Results: SZQG effectively increased the levels of CRH,ACTH,and CORT,which decreased in the serum of rats with chronic eczema,stimulated the function of the HPA axis,and promoted the expression of glucocorticoids.SZQG reduced the serum levels of inflammatory factors including IL-4,IL-25 and IL-31,which were overexpressed in rats with chronic eczema,and increased those of anti-inflammatory factor IFN-γ,thereby alleviating the inflammatory symptoms and itching,and ameliorating the clinical symptoms of chronic eczema.Conclusion: SZQG effectively alleviates skin lesions in the chronic eczema rat model by stimulating the function of the HPA axis.

Scars caused by trauma will not only affect the appearance and cause dysfunction, but also affect the quality of psychological life of the patients to varying degrees. With the in-depth understanding of the process of scar formation after trauma and the continuous development of related intervention methods, early intervention within 3 months after trauma has been proved to be able to promote wound healing, inhibit scar hyperplasia, and interfere with the natural remodeling of scar collagen. This review summarizes the process of scar formation after trauma, as well as the timing and method of early intervention.

Objective:To study the outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with history of thoracotomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical diagnosis, treatment data and outcomes of 10 COVID-19 patients with history of thoracotomy were studied in Tongji Hospital of Wuhan.Results:10 COVID-19 patients with history of thoracotomy were severe or critical cases. The clinical manifestations of all patients were mainly represented in respiratory system, and these patients were all confirmed by chest CT and virus nucleic acid detection. After admission, all patients were given oxygen therapy, antiviral therapy (abidol and Lianhuaqingwen), and antibiotic therapy (Moxifloxacin and / or Cefoperazone Sodium and Sulbactam Sodium). Finally, 3 patients died of respiratory failure and 7 patients were cured and discharged smoothly.Conclusion:COVID-19 patients with a history of thoracotomy are easy to develop progression, and the use of antibiotics might be more active. At present, there is no specific treatment, and the combination of multiple methods may be effective.

Radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) is a common complication of radiotherapy and one of the main causes of non-cancer death in patients with thoracic malignant tumors, which seriously affects the clinical outcome and quality of life of patients. PET imaging is able to assess myocardial perfusion, abnormal myocardial metabolic, cardiac sympathetic disorders, myocardial fibrosis and inflammation, and is of great value in the early diagnosis and detection of RIHD. This article reviews the progress of PET imaging in the early detection of RIHD.
