1.Classification and clinical significance of choroidal neovascularization
Ophthalmology in China 1993;0(04):-
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) can be classified into different types based on the etiology, positions with the retinal pigment epithelium, distance to the geometric center of the foveal avascular zone, fundus fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography. Subtypes of CNV are also existed. The different classifications have different clinical significances. Comprehend the classification of CNV has important value in evaluating the lesions and guideline for treatment.
2.Imaging features of branching vascular network in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2014;30(3):230-234
Objective To observe the imaging features of branching vascular network (BVN) in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).Methods Eighty PCV patients (90 eyes) were enrolled in this study.The patients included 58 males and 22 females.The age was ranged from 49 to 85 years,with a mean age of 61.4 years.All the patients were examined for fundus photography,fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA),indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT).The fibrovascular retinal pigment epithelium detachment (PED) was defined as a well-demarcated subretinal heterogeneous plaque with increasing fluorescence on FFA.The late lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque was defined as a well-demarcated lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque on late phase ICGA.The double-layer sign on OCT was defined as a wide range of shallow PED from Bruch membrane.Results BVN were found on early ICGA in 76 eyes among the 90 eyes (84.4%).Among these 76 eyes,18 eyes (23.7%) demonstrated the subretinal reddish-orange branches corresponding to BVN.Fifty-six eyes (73.7%) demonstrated all or part of the BVN on early FFA.Three eyes (3.9%) demonstrated branching transmitted fluorescence corresponding to BVN throughout the FFA.Seventy-three eyes (96.1%) were manifested by occult choroidal vascularization on FFA,and 21 eyes (27.6%) of them were fibrovascular PED.Among the 76 eyes with BVN,all BVN appeared earlier than polypoidal lesions on ICGA.Polypoidal lesions located on the terminal of BVN in 62 eyes (81.6%).Sixty-nine eyes (90.8%) on ICGA demonstrated the late lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque,whose area was equal to or greater than the area of BVN shown on early ICGA.Seventy-two eyes (94.7%) had the double layer sign.Among these 72 eyes,15 eyes (20.8%) had lumen like structure within the double-layer sign.Sixty-five eyes (90.3%) had punctate and linear hyperreflectance within the double-layer sign.Two eyes (2.8%) demonstrated a hyporeflective short segment and a gap of Bruch membrane on OCT corresponding to the origin of the BVN.Sixty-three eyes (87.5%) had an area of double-layer sign that matched the area of late lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque on ICGA.Conclusions BVN in PCV can be noted as reddish-orange branches on fundus examination.Most of the BVN are shown as early branching transmitted fluorescence but collectively an occult choroidal vascularization on FFA,as lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque on late ICGA,and as double-layer sign on OCT whose area matches late lichenoid hyperfluorescent plaque.
3.Analysis of surgical effect of the patients with uveitis-complicated cataract
Recent Advances in Ophthalmology 2001;21(3):197-198
Objective To analyze the surgical results of uveitis-complicated cataract.Methods Cataract phacoemulsification surgery was performed on 31 eyes (29 patients) due to uveitis (iridocyclitis 14 eyes, Fuchs heterochromic cyclitis 7 eyes, intermediate uveitis 7 eyes, Vogt-koyanagi-harada syndrome 2 eyes, and sympathetic ophthalmia 1 eye). Follow-up period was 5~28 months, averaging 15 months. Retrospective analysis was made.Results Postoperative visual acuity≥0.5 was 80%. One eye (Vogt-koyanagi-harada syndrome) showed severe anterior uveitic reaction; One eye (iridocyclitis) had fibrinous membranes on IOL, and white debris on IOL were found in 2 eyes (intermediate uveitis).Conclusion By using less traumatic phacoemulsification technique to ocular tissue, taking meticulous care to avoid stimulating iris, cleaning up cortex thoroughly during surgery and implanting the IOL in the bag, less inflammatory reaction, less complication and better vision acuity postoperatively at relative quiescence period of uveitis can be achieved.
4.Study of correlation of diabetic nephropathy with serum endothelin(ET-1) and C-reactive protein(CRP)
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2009;17(11):842-843
Objective To investigate the relationship of diabetic nephropathy with serum endothelin-1(ET-1) and C-reactive protein(CRP). Methods Levels of blood pressure, glucose, lipid, creatinine,ET-1,CRP and urinary albumin excretion(UAER) were measured and calculated in 86 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and 30 healthy subjects. Results Serum ET-1 and CRP were significantly higher in T2DM than in control(P<0.05,P<0.01).Serum ET-1 and CRP were increased with increment of serum creatinine and UAER(P<0.05,P<0.01). Conclusions Serum ET-1 and CRP may be involved in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy.
5.Classification and clinical significance of retinal hemorrhage
Ophthalmology in China 2009;18(4):221-224
Retinal hemorrhage can be divided into intravitreal, subhyaloid, subinner limiting membrane, superficial retinal, deep retinal, subretinal and subpigment epithelial hemorrhage. Each of these hemorrhages has a characteristic and recognizable appearance. Comprehending the classification and characteristic of retinal hemorrhage has important value in diagnosis, differential diagnosis and guideline for treatment.(Ophthalmol CHN, 2009, 18: 221-224)

7.Paying attention to the differential diagnosis of central serous chorioretinopathy
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(12):1057-1060
Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC)is a common eye disease characterized by macular serous retinal detachment.However,sometimes there are some atypical features,such as diffuse retinal pigment epitheliopathy,choroidal neovascularization (CNV),acute bullous retinal detachment,subretinal fibrosis,etc.Atypical CSC often is misdiagnosed because of its similar manifestations to polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV),inflammatory diseases such as Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKH),et al.Furthermore,there are some other ophthalmic and systematic diseases which can cause serous retinal detachment and other atypical features.Nevertheless,the therapeutic regimens of these diseases are in great variation.In view of this,oculist should pay more attention to the differential diagnosis of CSC by fully understanding its clinical findings and concerning the general history including gluococorticoid administration.In this way,a precise diagnosis and correct management can be done.

Journal of Practical Radiology 2001;0(06):-
Objective To study the appearances and early fetures of sacroiliac joints(SIJ) in ankylosing spondylitis on X-ray film and CT,and to valuate the CT examination of sacroiliac joints in the same groups.Methods The plain X-ray film of 73 cases of SIJ of ankylosing spondylitis which had been proved clinicalhy were studied.All the patients had been examed with CT at the same time.The appearances presented by the two methods were concluded compared and graded,the relationship between them was analyzed with statistics.Results The erosion,cystic lesions of bone and swollen of soft tissues were the early features of sacroiliac joints in ankylosing spondylitis,but the detection rate of them by X-ray was 73%,38%,0.6%,by CT was 86%,72%,3%.They can find on CT and conventional radiography,but the detection rate of them by CT was much higher than that by X-ray plain film(?
9.A comparative study of the for-profit and nonprofit hospitals in a Southern province
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 1996;0(01):-
Objective To find out about the current situation of the for-profit hospitals in a Southern province and to compare them with the nonprofit hospitals there of the same size. Methods Using routine health statistics data of the year 2002,71 for-profit hospitals with authorized beds were compared with 132 nonprofit hospitals of the same size.Results The for-profit hospitals had a small number of staff and basically little burden posed by retired personnel;they provided a small volume of outpatient and emergency services but a volume of inpatient services equal to that provided by the nonprofit hospitals;their income and expenditure levels were less than half of those of the nonprofit hospitals,but they had a balanced budget;like the nonprofit hospitals,they faced the issue of patients defaulting on payment.Conclusion Now that the development of non-public economy is being encouraged in the country,for-profit hospitals will witness high growth.Thus possible adverse effects ought to be carefully taken into account in the formulation of policies and corresponding countermeasures ought to be taken.
