Objective To detect the changes of function of blood-aqueous barrier in different Syndrome stages of patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome in order to provide the appropriate therapy. Methods According to clinical manifestation, 77 patients (144 eyes) with VKH syndrome were divided into 4 groups: 10 cases in posterior uvietis stage group (20 eyes), 27 in anterior uveal involvement stage group (50 eyes), 23 in recurrent anterior uvitis stage group (41 eyes), and 17 in convalescent stage group (33 eyes). The other 50 cases (100 eyes) were in the control group. Flare and cells of anterior chamber in patient with VKH Syndrome at different stages were graded and measured by laser flare and cell meter (LFCM) and slitlamp microscope. Results According to the results of slitlamp biomicroscopy, anterior chamber flare and cells were at the 0 grade in the patients at posterior uvietis stage (20 eyes). The results of LFCM examination revealed that the flare value and cells were (9.7?3.4) pc/ms and (0.9?0.6)/0.5 mm3 in posterior uvietis stage group, and (5.3?2.3) pc/ms and (0.8? 0.6)/0.5 mm3 in the control group. The differences between the two groups were significant (P

Objective To investigate the effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine serotonin receptor-1A (5-HT1 A) agonists on micturition dysfunction in rats with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods Female SD rats weighing 175 -200 g were used.Seven of the rats were modified for a spinal cord injury model (transsection at T10).Eight weeks later,control rats and SCI rats were tested.Rats were anesthetized with urethane ( 1.3 g/kg ).A polyethylene (PE) -50 catheter was placed in the left jugular vein for intravenous drug administration.A PE-90 catheter was inserted through the bladder dome,and the other end of the bladder catheter was connected to a syringe pump for continuous infusion of saline and to a pressure transducer for intravesical pressure monitor.Dose-response curves for 8-OH-DPAT were followed by the WAY-100635 test.The capacity,residual volume,micturition volume,and EUS-EMG were measured.Results With an increasing dose of 8-OH-DPAT,the capacity of the bladder decreased from 33.2 ± 8.3 ml to 22.8 ± 2.4 ml.The micturition volume was increased from 0.14 ± 0.08 ml to 0.38 ± 0.09 ml.The residual volume decreased from 3.68 ± 1.36 ml to 1.84 ± 0.21 ml,and peak intravesical pressure changed from 27.1 ± 3.6 mm Hg to 22.8 ± 2.4 mm Hg.Control rats showed little significant change in the cystometric variable.Effects of 8-OH-DPAT were reversed by WAY-100635.That 8-OH-DPAT induced phasic relaxation occured in spinal cord-injured rats but the control group showed no significant change.ConclusionsThe 5-HTIA/7 receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT may induce periodic EUS relaxation during voiding in urethane-anesthetized chronic spinal cordinjured rats.And this could result in an increase in micturition volume,a decrease in bladder capacity,and thus an increase in voiding efficiency.

Objective To construct a human phage single chain-antibody library, and to sieve out the antibody ScFv against lung cancer from the library. Methods Total RNA was abstracted from lymph node tissue of the lung cancer, and was used to amplify V_H and V_L gene by RT-PCR. V_H and V_L were joined by a DNA linker by SOE-PCR to form the single chain variable fragment ( ScFv) gene. ScFv gene was coloned into the phage vector pCANT-AB5E. Panning against lung cancer cell line A549 was performed and positive clones were chosen for soluble expression. Results A recombination phage single chain-antibody library was constructed. After 4 rounds panning, the number of eluted phages increased by 115 times. Positive reactions to A549 were detected in 7 of 10 random clones. The human ScFvs against lung cancer were produced and confirmed by SDS-PAGE and ELISA analysis. Conclusion ScFvs against lung cancer were acquired by the construction of phage single chain-antibody library. The soluble ScFvs has specificall avidity to human lung cancer cells.

Chinese, as a logographic language, fundamentally differs from alphabetic languages like English. Previous neuroimaging studies have mainly focused on alphabetic languages, while the exploration of Chinese reading is still an emerging and fast-growing research field. Recently, a growing number of neuroimaging studies have explored the neural circuit of Chinese reading. Here, we summarize previous research on Chinese reading from a connectomic perspective. Converging evidence indicates that the left middle frontal gyrus is a specialized hub region that connects the ventral with dorsal pathways for Chinese reading. Notably, the orthography-to-phonology and orthography-to-semantics mapping, mainly processed in the ventral pathway, are more specific during Chinese reading. Besides, in addition to the left-lateralized language-related regions, reading pathways in the right hemisphere also play an important role in Chinese reading. Throughout, we comprehensively review prior findings and emphasize several challenging issues to be explored in future work.

Osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly will seriously reduce their quality of life and life expectancy. For osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, spinal reconstruction is necessary, which should comprehensively consider factors such as the physical condition, fracture type, clinical characteristics and osteoporosis degree. While there lacks relevant clinical norms or guidelines on selection of spinal reconstruction strategies. In order to standardize the concept of spinal reconstruction for osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, based on the principles of scientificity, practicality and progressiveness, the authors formulated the Clinical guideline for spinal reconstruction of osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in elderly patients ( version 2022), in which suggestions based on evidence of evidence-based medicine were put forward upon 10 important issues related to the fracture classification, non-operative treatment strategies and surgical treatment strategies in spinal reconstruction after osteoporosis thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, hoping to provide a reference for clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the characteristics, treatment and outcome of patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
METHODSA total of 37 patients with PCNSL treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from June 1999 to June 2012 were enrolled into this retrospective study. The clinical characteristics, results of treatment and prognostic factors were analyzed.
RESULTSThe median age of 37 patients with PCNSL at diagnosis was 57 years(range 17 to 78 years) with a male to female ratio of 2.7:1. The symptoms or signs of elevated intracranial pressure and cognitive dysfunction were the most common initial manifestations. The median time period between onset of symptoms and diagnosis was 1.5 months. The majority of lesions were located in the cerebral hemisphere. At a median follow-up of 50 months, the median overall survival for all treated patients was 36.0 months (95% CI 21.7-50.3 months), with a progression-free survival of 18.0 months(95% CI 9.1-26.9 months). The 3-year cumulative survival rate was 46.9%. Compared to chemotherapy alone, combined-modality regimens which did not improve outcome were associated with a greater risk of neurotoxicity.
CONCLUSIONThe prognosis of PCNSL was still poor, and the optimal treatment strategy for these patients should be explored in the future clinical trials.

A young male diagnosed with severe hemophilia A since childhood, was presented with recurrent joint and urinary bleeding. Annualized bleed rates dropped below five with low dose prophylactic medication.Bleeding in the right knee joint recently aggravated. Due to coexisting HIV infection and advanced hemophilic arthritis, the patient was managed by a multi-disciplinary team(MDT).Total knee arthroplasty was performed by an experienced surgeon using modern prosthesis design and intraoperative navigation technologies.Physical and rehabilitation therapy was provided during the postoperative period, and joint function improved. The MDT managed the young patient with HIV infection and advanced hemophilic arthritis. The patient was diagnosed with osteoporosis thought to have been caused by hemophilia, HIV infection and antiviral drugs; and he received treatment. The treatment of this patient reflects the importance of multidisciplinary cooperation in the management of difficult and rare diseases.
