Objective To investigate the influencing factors for eye cyclotorsion and pupil centroid shift during LASIK.Design Non-controlled retrospective case series.Participant 131 patients (262 eyes) with myopia received bilateral LASIK.Methods Eye cy- clotorsion and pupil centroid shift were measured with Custom Vue~(TM) software during operation and compared with age,gender,right or left eye,flap-making method,spherical equivalent (SE),pupil diameter before and during operation.Main Outcome Measures The de- gree of eye cyclotorsion and distance of pupil centroid shift during LASIK.Results The mean eye cyclotorsion during LASIK was 3.07??2.07?(0?-8.6?).The mean pupil centroid shift was 0.33?0.14 mm (0.04-0.51 mm).The eye cyclotorsion was relevant to preoperative pupil size,difference of pupil size before and during operation,and preoperative SE (r=0.188,0.156,0.130,all P7.0 mm was higher than that of with pupil diameter≤7.0mm (3.35??2.17?,2.71??1.89?,P=-0.014).Pupil centroid shift was higher in fight eyes than that in left eyes (0.39?0.12 mm,0.28?0.13 mm,P=0.000).Conclu- sion Eye cyclotorsion and pupil centroid shift during LASIK can be measured with Custom Vue~(TM) system.The eye cyclotorsion may be influenced by the preoperative pupil size.The pupil centroid during LASIK was more significant in the right eyes than in the left eyes.

Objective To compare the safety,effectiveness and predictability of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with fem- tosecond laser (IntraLase) and mechanical microkeratome (Moria M2,head 90?m).Design Prospective clinical study.Participant 148 patients (274 eyes) with high myopia received operation of LASIK.Method The patients were assigned to receiving LASIK with corneal flap creation by Intralase femtosecond laser (134 eyes of 76 patients) or Moria 90 keratome (140 eyes of 72 patients),both groups receiving eximer laser ablation with VISX Star S4.Followed-up examinations such as visual acuity,refraction,wavefront aberra- tion,etc.were scheduled for 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3 months postoperatively.Main Outcome Measures Visual acuity,refrac- tion,wavefront aberration,Schirmer test and tear film breakup time(BUT).Results At 3 months after operation,108 eyes (80.6%) of IntraLase group had UCVA better than or equal to BSCVA preoperatively,showing no statistically significant difference to microker- atome group (116 eyes,82.9%,P=0.642).The mean residual spheroequivalent of refraction of IntraLase group was -0.49?0.70D,show- ing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (-0.56?0.83D,P=0.448).The mean Schirmer test of Intralase group was 9.5?4.0mm,showing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (9.5?7.2mm,P=0.950).The mean BUT of IntraLase group was 7.9?4.3s,showing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (8.08?5.48s,P=0.869).The postoperative higher-order aberrations of the IntraLase group was 0.480?0.133?m,lower than that of microkeratome group (0.578?0.169?m,P=0.034). Conclusions Thin-flap LASIK with femtosecond laser and mechanical keratome flap creation are both safe,effective for the correction of high myopia,showing good predictability and stability.Femtosecond laser has slightly better clinical outcomes than microkeratome.

The clinical data of patients with hypoparathyroidism accompanied by elevated and normal muscle enzymes were analyzed retrospectively.The results showed that there were no differences in age,gender,pathogenesis,etiology,and parathormone level between groups with elevated muscle enzyme and normal muscle enzyme.Serum calcium concentration in the group with normal muscle enzyme was within normal range.Serum calcium concentration in the group with elevated muscle enzyme was significantly lower than that in the group with normal muscle enzyme (P<0.01).As the serum calcium concentration rose,the elevated enzyme level gradually returned to normal range,suggesting that the decrease of serum calcium concentration resulted in the elevated muscle enzyme levels in patients with hypoparathyroidism.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the level of postprandial blood glucose (PBG)and the incidence of coronary artery disease(CAD). Methods Eighty-five patients performed coronary angiography with abnormal blood glucose levels were divided into 3 groups according the blood glucose levels: impaired fasting glucose(IFG)group(28 cases), impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)group(29cases)and diabetes mellitus(DM)group(28 cases). The detection rate and the extent of CAD were observed. The risk factors of CAD in 3 groups such as C-reactive protein(CRP),carotid artery intima-media thickness(CIMT), blood lipids, blood pressure, body mass index(BMI)and the correlation with CAD were analyzed. Results Sixty-two cases were confirmed CAD by coronary angiography. The incidence rate of CAD in IGT group[79.3%(23/29)]and DM group[85.7%(24/28)]was significantly higher than that in IFG group[53.6%(15/28)](P < 0.01). The incidence rate of CAD in DM group was higher than that in IGT group, but there was no significant difference(P > 0.05). The incidence rate of two-lesion and three-lesion in IGT group and DM group were significantly higher than those in IFG group(P< 0.01). The incidence rate of two-lesion and three-lesion in DM group were higher than those in IGT group, but there was no significant difference(P>0.05). The levels of CRP, CIMT, BMI, triacylglycerol(TG)and systolic blood pressure(SBP)were higher and HDL-C was lower in IGT group and DM group than those in IFG group(P < 0.01 or < 0.05).The levels of CRP,TG and SBP were higher in DM group than those in IGT group(P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed, in IGT group and DM group,2 h PG had significantly positive correlation with CRP, CIMT,B MI, TG(P<0.05 or<0.01), and had significantly negative correlation with HDL-C(P<0.05 or <0.01).Conclusions PBG is closely related with the development of CAD.IGT patients should be intervened as early as possible, which can be effective in preventing cardiovascular events.

Objective:To investigate the optimal administration approach of using aspirin by observing the effects of the rats in-testinal mucosal barrier and somatostatin receptors level with different administration approaches of using non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs-aspirin.Methods:32 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:oral intake group,enema group,intraperitoneal injection group and control group.Every group had 8 rats.The ileum mucosal injury was scored.The level and distribution of SSTRs in every group was detected by ELISA and immunohistochemistry, respectively, The IOD score in each group was measured by image analysis.Results:(1) The scores of ileum mucosal injury in aspirin experimental groups were significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05), but there were no difference among aspirin experimental groups.( 2 ) All subtypes of SSTR were expressed in rat intestinal mucosa.However,SSRT1 and SSTR2 were expressed mainly ( P<0.05 ).( 3 ) The expressions of SSTR1-5 on intestinal mucosa in aspirin experimental groups were significantly less than that in control group (P<0.05).(4) There was incompletely no same effects of SSTR1-5 in intestinal mucosa by different approaches ( P<0.05 ).( 5 ) There were no significant difference of SST concentration and IOD score among all groups ( P>0.05).Conclusion:Aspirin can damage the rat intestinal mucosa.Aspirin could lead to the decrease of SSTR1-5 expression in the intestinal mucosa.All subtypes of SSTR in rat small intestine mucosa were expressed, suggesting that aspirin could affect the barrier function of the intestine.There were different influences on SSTR1-5 expression by different administration approaches,suggesting aspirin by parenteral approach may reduce the intestinal damage.

Objective To explore the epidemic situation of nontuberculous Mycobacteria in both Yuexiu and Zhuhai districts. Methods Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture and strain identification were conducted in suspected smear-positive tuberculosis patients who had visited our clinics at Yuexiu and Haizhu districts in Guangzhou during the period of 2010 to 2012. Results 2 014 sputum samples were identified as NTM and MTC, 1 630 samples were MTC (80.9%), and 384 samples were NTM (19.1%). The isolated rate for NTM from 2010 to 2012 was 17.6%, 17.1% and 21.2%, respectively. 79 strains of 384 NTM were identified; the rapid-growing mycobacterium was 50.6%, and the slow-growing mycobacterium was 49.4%. Conclusions The sputum-isolated rate of NTM for the suspected tuberculosis patients was 19.1% in Yuexiu and Haizhu districts in Guangzhou. For the smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients who respond to treatment poorly , we should pay attention to NTM lung disease.
