AlM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of canalicular intubation combined with external dacryocystorhinostomy ( ext-DCR ) for treatment of chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis.
METHODS:Thirty-three patients (33 eyes) with chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis who underwent canalicular intubation combined ext-DCR were retrospective analyzed. The silicon tube was indwelt for 6mo. All cases were re-examined 1wk;1, 3, 6, 9mo post-operation, flow of tears, pus excretion and lacrimal duct clearance were observed.
RESULTS: Clear lacrimal duct ratio was 100% in all cases during 1wk~6mo post-operation; Silicon tube was removed 6mo post-operation, 3mo after tube removal, rechecking reported 32 cases with clear lacrimal duct (97%) and 1 case with resistant duct (3%). Two cases ( 6%) with minor lacerations, no other complications were observed.
CONCLUSlON: Canalicular intubation combined ext-DCR is an effective treatment for chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis.

Objective To investigate the curative effects of oxalic acid Ai Sciplan in assisting psychological therapy for coronary heart disease accompanied with depression. Methods A total of 136 patients of coronary heart disease with de?pression were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. The routine drug treatment was given to control group. Treatment group was given oxalic acid Ai Sciplan which is assisted by the psychological therapy based on the routine drug treatment schedule for six months. HAMD score before treatment, one-week, one-month, 3-month and 6-month after treatment were compared between two groups. Homocysteine (Hcy) and high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were detected by circulating enzymatic method before treatment and 6-month after treatment. The WHO quality of life scale (WHOQOL-BREF) was used to assess the quality of life in two groups of patients. The improvements of angina and depressive symptoms were evaluated after 6-month treatment. The cardiovascular events were followed up in two groups. Re?sults HAMD scores significantly decreased after treatment in both groups (P < 0.05). HAMD scores at all different time points were significantly lower after treatment than those before treatment in treatment group. In control group, HAMD scores at different time points were also significantly lower after treatment than those before treatment, except time point of one week after treatment. The levels of Hcy and hs-CRP were decreased after treatment in two groups, and the levels were lower in treatment group than those of control group. Values of WHOQOL-BREF score, mental status, social relations and the sur?rounding environment scores were higher after treatment in both groups. Also they are higher in treatment group than that of control group. The angina and depressive symptoms were improved in treatment group. The incidences of angina, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, heart failure, sudden cardiac death and other cardiovascular events were significantly lower in treat?ment group than those of control group (χ2=9.396, P<0.05). Conclusion Escitalopram oxalate combined with psychological therapy shows a significant beneficial effect and a better prognosis in the treatment of coronary heart disease and depression.

Objective To explore the influence of electrical stimulation on prefrontal cortical neurons and synaptic ultramicrostructure of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD)in neonatal rats.Methods The sixty 7-day-old newborn healthy SD rats were randomly divided into hypoxic-ischemic group(model group),electrical stimulation(intervention)group and sham operation group(control group),which 20 for each group.The models of perinatal HIBD rats were prepared by ligation of left common carotid artery with a temporary systemic hypoxia for 2 hours.Intervention group was subject to electric stimulation for 30 minutes,once everyday after surgery.Control group and model group were not subject to electric stimulation but caught to fix in corresponding period.Fastigial nucleus electric stimulations were performed for 3 d,14 d and 21 d.Five rats were killed in each group after the application of electron microscope to observe the brain cortex neurons and synaptic ultrastructure changes.Results In model group,the neuronal shrinkage,the amount of organelles dacrease,ob-vious edema of cytoplasm,obvious swellen mitochondria,and synapse quantity decrease,synaptic space fusion,obvious synaptic vesicle were observed.Intervention group different times,mitochondria hydrops gradually alleviated,synaptic space gradually cleared,synaptic vesicle increased,pathological changes obviously lessened compared to model group at the same time,and there was no apparent abnormality compared with control group on the 21st d.Conclusion Electric stimulation can promote the ultramicrostructures recovery of HIBD rats.

Objective To investigate the effects of electrical stimulation on vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and its receptor expressions of neonatal rat brain with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD).Methods Seventy-five 7-day-old newborn health SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(control group,n=25),hypoxia-ischemia group(model group,n=25) and the electrical sti-mulation group(intervention group,n=25).To bulid HIBD animal model of neonatal rats,the left common carotid artery was ligated and nitrogen-oxygen gas mixture was inhaled 2 hours.Fastigial nucleus stimulation was given 12 hours after the operation in intervention group,30 min?time-1,1 time?d-1,the time length was 1 d,3 d,7 d,14 d or 21 d,respectively.There was no electrical stimulation in model group and control group.The rats in these groups were captured at the corresponding time.Five rats in each group were killed at the corresponding pe-riods after electrical stimulation,the expression of VEGF and its receptor fam-like tyrosine kinase receptor(flt-1 / VEGFR1),fetal liver kinase receptor(flk-1/KDR/VEGFR2) in hippocampus were observed by immunohistochemistry.SPSS 15.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The expression of VEGF,VEGFR1,VEGFR2 at every time point in electrical stimulation group were higher significantly than those in model group and control group(Pa0.05).Conclusion Electrical stimulation can promote the expression of VEGF and its receptors VEGFR1,VEGFR2.

Objective:To investigate frequencies of microsatellite instability(MSI)and loss of heterozygosity(LOH)in renal ceil carcinoma(RCC),and to discuss the relationship of clinicopathological characteristics of RCC with MSI and LOH. Methods:Twelve microsatellite markers located at chromosomes 3p,9p and 14q were selected to investigate microsatellite alterations(MSI and LOH)in 31 RCC specimens and their paired metastasis specimens by polymerase chain reaction- polyacrylamide gel elect rophoresis-ethylene dibromide(PCR-PAGE-EB)staining and sequencing.Results:The frequency of MSI could reached 61.3% and that of LOH could reach 54.8%.The highest frequency of MSI was at locus of D9S168(32.3%);the highest frequency of LOH was at locus of D3S1289(21.4%).No correlation was found between MSI or LOH and the patients' age,sex,pathology type and metastastis,except that MSI was correlated with TNM stage of RCC(P

Objective To study the influence of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma SHG-44 cells cultured invitro,and to explore the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma cells.Methods The SHG-44 cells were cultured and divided into blank control group and 8, 40, 200, 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups.The inhibitory effect of Rhizoma typhonii extract on the growth of glioma SHG-44 cells was measured by MTT assay. The secretion levels of Bax and caspase-3 proteins were examined by ELISA assay. The expression level of caspase-3 protein was examined by Western blotting method. Results Compared with blank control group, the inhibitory rates of the growth of SHG-44 cells in 200, 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 24 h,and 8,40,200,and 1 000μg·L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 48 h were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The secretion levels of Bax and caspase-3 proteins in 40,200,and 1 000μg· L-1 Rhizoma typhonii extract groups at 48 h were increased compared with blank control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01 ). Compared with blank control group, the expression levels of caspase-3 protein in different doses of Rhizoma typhonii extract groups were increased significantly (P<0.01). Conclusion Rhizoma Typhonii extract can inhibit the growth of cells through up-regulating the expression of Bax protein,increasing the expression level of caspase-3 protein and activating apoptosis pathway.
