Background The aspheric intraocular lenses(IOLs)can reduce ocular spherical aberration to some degree.However,the clinical effect depends more on the IOL proper alignment.It becomes more important to study the IOL position in eye,Objective This study was to analyze the position alteration of IOL after phacoemulsification combined with implantation of one-piece soft IOLs.Methods In this prospective control study,80 eyes of 40 patients with age-related cataract were enrolled.The phacoemulsification with IOL implantation was performed in all the eyes.Decentration and tilt of IOL in the nasal superior,superior temporal,inferior temporal and nasal inferior quadrants(the intersection point of the system optical axis and the IOL maximum cross plane were regarded as the ordinate origin)were measured by rotating Scheimpflug camera(Pentacam Oculus)in 3 months postoperatively under the mydriasis condition.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to this trial.Results In the right eye group,the IOL decentered toward temporal in 26 eyes(65％)and infratemporal in 16 eyes(40％).IOLs tilted temporally in the horizontal plane in 37 eyes(92.5％)and tilted inferiorly in the vertical plane in 34 eyes(85.0％).In the left eye group,IOLs decentered temporally 33 eyes(82.5％)and 20 IOLs (50％)infratemporally,IOLs tilted temporally in the horizontal plane in 37 eye(92.5％)and 36 IOLs(90％)tilted inferiorly in the vertical plane.There was no statistical difference for the intercomparsion of horizontal/vertical decentration in various quadrant in the right eye(F =0.221,0.792,P＞0.05).The obvious elevated horizontal decentration was found in the supertemporal and infratemporal quadrants compared with supernasal quadrant in the left eyes but there was no significant difference in the vertical decentration among 3 quadrants(F=0.576,P＞0.05).Decentrations were positively correlated with the tilt in both horizontal and vertical plane(right eye horizontal plane:r=0.374,P=0.002;right eye vertical plane:r=0.402,P=0.001 ;left eye horizontal plane:r=0.377,P=0.002；left eye vertical plane:r=0.347,P=0.002).Conclusions The one-piece soft IOLs(Adapt AO)decenter toward temporal mostly in 3 months after surgery,especially infratemporally in the eye.And the optical axis of the IOL tilt toward infratemperol mostly in both right and left eyes.The decentration and tilt are consisted in the corresponding direction between the right and left eyes.The position of the IOLs showed mirror symmetry between right and left eyes.The IOLs decentration show the positively correlation to tilt whatever in horizontal and vertical plane.

Objective To explore the lethal action and possible mechanism of RI-1, a RAD51 inhibitor, on MSH2 deficient colorectal cancer cells.Methods The expression of MSH2 protein level was assessed by Western blot, and the sensibility of human colorectal cancer cells to RI-1 (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 μmol/L)was measured by MTT method.Lentivirus vectors MSH2-shRNA and Neg-shRNA (negative control) were constructed and transfected into HT29 cell.Apoptosis and DNA damage of cells treated with RI-1(40 μmol/L)were detected by flow cytometry and Single cell gel electrophoresis respectively.In addition, the formation of γ-H2AX foci was analyzed by immunofluorescence.Results Compared with control, MSH2-deficient HCT8 cells had obviously apoptosis(P<0.01);in HCT8 and HT29 Shmsh2 cells, tail DNA%, tail length, tail moment and olive tail moment were markedly increased(P<0.05),and the number of γ-H2AX focus were increased(P<0.01).Conclusions RAD51 inhibitor RI-1 selectively kills MSH2 deficient colorectal cancer cells by increasing DNA damage.

Objective To analyze the influence of different recall time periods on epidemiological survey of injuries among children and adolescents. Methods A study on injuries for 12 months follow-up period was actively surveyed among 4523 pupils selected by cluster sampling from 12 kindergartens, 1 elementary school, 1 junior high school, 1 senior high school and 1 college in Maanshan city in November, 2007 to November, 2008. Injury events were actively surveyed by school doctors or class health workers simultaneously. Participants were divided into three groups, the first group including self-reported injuries by 3-months interval, the second group with self-recalled injuries by 6-months interval and the third group with self-reported injuries in the past 12 months. Validity and reliability of injuries between surveillance injuries and retrospective injuries were compared. Results The overall rate of injury events was 74.2% and injury events and rate was higher in boys than that in girls (P<0.01) , In total, 6350 injury events were registered for the survey. Compare with surveillance findings, the injury rate declined 0.02% and the number of injuries had a 19 person/time reduction from the retrospective injuries by 3-months interval. The injury rate declined 0.02% and number of injuries reduced 58 person/times from the survey of retrospective injuries by 6-month interval. The rate of injuries declined 8.8% and frequencies had a 505 reduction from data of self-reported injuries in the past 12 months. The largest declines were found for the 3 to 6 year-old age group and for minor injuries. Conclusion The 12-month recall period on underestimate injury rates was compared to the 3-month recall periods and 6-month recall periods. Recall periods of 6 months were recommended to be used in injury survey in children and adolescents.

Objective To examine the epidemiological features and relative risk factors of repeated injuries among middle, high and college students in Ma' anshan city of Anhui province. Methods A prospective study on repeated injuries for 1-year follow-up period was carried out among 1494 students from 3 middle schools or colleges. Risk factors for repeated injuries were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression model. Results 799 students suffered 1639 episodes of injuries, with an incidence rate of 53.48%. The repeated group consisted of 200 students who suffered 854 injuries, accounted for 52.10% among the total injuries. Results from Multi-normial logistic regression analysis showed that male, number of family members of 4 or over, extraversion of character trait, and upper quartile of self-rating anxiety symptoms were the risk factors for the occurrence of repeated injuries. Moderate or well-of family income, mothers with senior high school education, and upper quartile of self-rating depression symptoms were protective factors for repeated injuries. Conclusion Socio-demographic factors and emotional status may predict the occurrence of repeated injuries that called for further study.

Aqueous dispersion and stability of Fe3O4 nanoparticles remain an issue unresolved since aggregation of naked iron nanoparticles in water. In this study, we successfully synthesized different Fe3O4 super-paramagnetic nanoparticles which were modified by three kinds of materials [DSPE-MPEG2000, TiO2 and poly acrylic acid (PAA)] and further detected their characteristics. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) clearly showed sizes and morphology of the four kinds of nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction (XRD) proved successfully coating of the three kinds of nanoparticles and their structures were maintained. Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) verified that their magnetic properties fitted for the super-paramagnetic function. More importantly, the particle size analysis indicated that Fe3O4@PAA had a better size distribution, biocompatibility, stability and dispersion than the other two kinds of nanoparticles. In addition, using CNE2 cells as a model, we found that all nanoparticles were nontoxic. Taken together, our data suggest that Fe3O4@PAA nanoaparticles are superior in the application of biomedical field among the four kinds of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in the future.

Objective To describe the epidemiological characteristics of profession related long-standing behavior during preconception and progestation,and to probe the relationship between prolonged standing jobs and the common pregnancy related complications among pregnant women,in Ma' anshan city,Anhui province.Methods In this cohort study,subjects who had their first antenatal examination at Ma' anshan Maternal and Child Care Centers were recruited under informed consent,from October 2008 to October 2010.All the information were collected through questionnaires in the first,second and third trimesters respectively.Three questionnaires were filled in by subjects under the guidance of healthcare takers.Results In the study,the 754 percentile of prolonged-standing times were 4.0 h/d and 3.0 h/d respectively in preconception and progestation.The characteristics of pregnant women with low social/economic status,prone to be involved in stand-long occupation.Results in logistic regression analysis,prolonged-standing jobs during preconception was the risk factor of pregnancy-induced hypertension and severe anemia.The adjusted odds ratios were 2.05 (95％CI:1.26-3.31) and 1.38 (95％CI:1.03-1.85) respectively.Conclusion Prolonged standing jobs appeared to be common occupational exposure to and risks of both pregnant woman and their fetus.Exposure to these kinds of jobs during preconception could increase the risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension and severe anemia.In order to promote maternal health programs,all the related occupational risk factors should be valued and avoided during preconception and pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol and myocardium in myocardium on the expression of FOS nucleoprotein (C-fos) of rats with high spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods Eighty-one healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,control group and experimental group according to the random number table method.Each group had 27 rats.In the sham operation group,only the spinal dura mater was exposed to the spinal dura mater,but the control group was given intravenous injection of 6 mL · kg-1 lactic acid Ringer's solution,and 13 mL · kg-1 · h-1;in the experimental group,0.2％ propofol 6 mg· kg-1 was injected intravenously with propofol 15 mg · kg-1 · h-1.The C-fos protein and creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were measured.Results At the time of 24 h after operation,the CK-MB in the control group and experimental group were (3.41 ± 0.38),(2.20 ± 0.59) U · L-1;LDH were (6.20 ± 1.00),(5.00 ±0.19) U · L-1 in the two groups;CK were (16.01 ±3.59),(10.99±4.64) U · L-1in the two groups;the expression rates of C-fos protein were (22.4 ± 5.4) ％,(14.7 ± 4.2) ％ in the two groups,the difference was statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).After 30 min,the heart rate in the experimental group and the control group were (326 ± 11),(389 ± 15) beat · min-1;the mean arterial pressure were (75.95 ±5.04),(99.83 ±4.72) mmHg in the two groups;the leftventricular systolic peak pressure were (129.47 ±5.26),(131.29 ±4.33) mmHg in the two groups,the difference was statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Propofol has a little effect on the expression of C-fos protein and myocardial enzymes in high SCI rats,which can reduce the secondary damage of spinal cord and protect the myocardium from injury caused by high SCI.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical and laboratory characteristics of various hematopoietic malignant patients with t(3;3)(q21;q26) or inv(3) (q21q26).

METHODSBone marrow samples were collected at presentation, prepared by short-time unstimulated culture and R-binding, and karyotyped by conventional cytogenetical assay (CCA); megalokaryocytes were detected by Streptavidin-AKP (SAP); immunotype of the leukemia cells was tested by flow cytometric anylysis of surface antigens (FACS).

RESULTSAll of the 9 hematopoietic malignant patients with t(3;3)(q21;q26) or inv(3) (q21q26) manifested myelodysplasia and poor treatment response. One of them relapsed shortly after allogenic hemotopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

CONCLUSIONPatients with 3q21q26 rearrangement can be found in various hematopoietic malignances and demonstrate an unique entity. These patients show poor treatment response and have extremely poor prognosis.

The purpose of this study was to compare the detection of trisomy 8 in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients with interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and cytogenetic karyotype analysis. Using Spectrum Green labeled chromosome 8 centromere probe, interphase FISH was established. The trisomy 8 clones were simultaneously detected in 48 MDS cases with FISH and conventional cytogenetic analysis (CCA). Results showed that the CCA revealed no significant difference of constitutional proportion between MDS-RA and MDS-RAEB with karyotypes of whole +8, partial +8 and one +8. With FISH, detectable rates were 66.1% for whole +8. Partial +8 and sole +8 were significantly higher than one +8 and complex +8, respectively. The percentages of trisomy 8 were similar in MDS-RA and MDS-RAEB. Trisomy 8 was detected in 1 of 15 specimens with normal or abnormal karyotype without trisomy 8 by FISH. There was linear correlation between the percentages of partial +8 detected by FISH and CCA. Two patients received CCA and FISH examination at diagnosis and during treatment, the percentage of trisomy 8 was increased with progress of disease. In conclusion, our results showed that FISH is a sensitive and accurate technique to detect trisomy 8 in MDS patients. It can provide contribute to diagnosis, assessment of curative effect and predicting progress of disease in MDS. Clone size of trisomy 8 does not related to classification of MDS, but sole +8 is seems to see in MDS-RA frequently.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the utilities of dual-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in diagnosis and monitor of treatment in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t (8; 21).

METHODSSeventy patients having FISH results were divided into two groups: untreated and treated group. Comparative analysis was performed between the results of conventional cytogenetic analysis (CCA) and FISH analysis, and in some of them, between FISH and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) results. A successive FISH following R-banding was carried out in those with cytogenetic undetermined cases.

RESULTSIn untreated group, 30/42 cases of t (8; 21) AML were positive for AML1/ETO in FISH assay. Three cases were positive for AML/ETO by FISH although two of them lacked t (8; 21) by CCA and one negative for AML1/ETO by RT-PCR. Six cases with complex karyotype abnormalities were confirmed to be AML1/ETO positive by the successive R-banding and FISH assay, and the involved genes were clearly visualized in FISH image. In the treated group, there were 28 cases of t (8; 21) AML diagnosed. Three cases without t (8; 21) by CCA were positive by FISH. Two patients were detected relapse earlier by FISH.

CONCLUSIONThe dual-color FISH technique is a much more sensitive and accurate approach to the diagnosis of t (8; 21) AML and minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring. It can also provide precise mapping of fusion signals in complex karyotype.
