Objective To analysis the flash electroretinogram (FERG) of diabeic retionpatby patients. Method 90 cases of DR patients were selected. According to the partial signs and the overall symptoms, the patients can be divided into three syndromes - dry heat by yin deficiency, deficiency of both qi and yin, deficiency of yin and yang. FERG were detected. Result There was close relation between the occurrence and development of DR and the evolution of the syndrome from yin deficiency to yang involved by deficient yin. Retina actional potential will change along with the change of syndrome. Conclusion The retina actional potential which recorded by FERG can be used as an objective criterion of syndrome differentiation, thus we can establish a diagnosis and treatment system of DR.

Objective To study the effect of comprehensive Chinese medicine therapy,including Chinese herbal medicine fumigation,massage,and quadriceps exercise,on adipokines of visfatin and chemerin content in joint fluid of patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA),and to explore its possible therapeutic mechanism for KOA.Methods A total of 60 cases of KOA patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,30 cases in each group.The treatment group was treated with comprehensive Chinese medicine therapy,and the control group was treated with Chinese medicine fumigation alone.After treatment for 2 weeks,the clinical efficacy of both groups was evaluated,and the changes in the scores of the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC)were observed.Moreover,the contents of visfatin and chemerin in jointfluid were examined.Results (1) The total effective rate of the treatment group was 96.7％ and that of the control group was 83.3％,the difference being significant (P ＜ 0.01).(2) After treatment,WOMAC scores of both groups were obviously decreased(P ＜ 0.01 compared with those before treatment),and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P ＜ 0.01).(3) The contents of visfatin and chemerint in joint synovial fluid of both groups were decreased (P ＜ 0.01 compared with those before treatment),and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The comprehensive Chinese medicine therapy of Chinese herbal medicine fumigation,massage and quadriceps exercise is effective for the treatment of KOA,and can decrease the contents of visfatin and chemerin in joint fluid of KOA patients,which may be one of its therapeutic mechanisms.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after total joint arthroplasty.Methods 40 cases of proximal DVT were collected from May 2007 to October 2016 which were all diagnosed by lower limb venography or sonography.There were 9 males and 31 females aged from 38 to 86 years,average 67 years,and body mass index was from 16.94 to 31.25kg/m2,with an average of 24.3 kg/m2.29 cases of THA patients and 11 cases of TKA patients.The anatomical distribution,size,radiological performance,local physical findings were recorded and multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between distribution of proximal DVT and related parameters including age,gender (male/female),side of leg(left/right),surgery type(knee and hip),preoperative diagnosis(femoral neck fracture/other disease),time of diagnosis with DVT (during hospitalization/after discharge).Results Among 40 proximal DVT cases,31 cases diagnosed by phlebography and 9 cases were diagnosed by ultrasound.2 cases were isolated proximal DVT while 38 cases connected with distal DVTs.9 cases of blood clots in the proximal and distal thrombosis connected discontinuously.There was no isolated proximal DVT in TKA group and 10 cases (90.9％) of blood clots in the proximal and distal thrombosis connected continuously while there were 2 cases (6.9％) isolated proximal DVTs in THA group and 21 (77.8％) of blood clots in the proximal and distal thrombosis connected discontinuously,and there was no statistic significant difference between the two groups.The average length of proximal was 8.85±9.3 1cm (range from 2-35cm) with 5.0±2.05 cm in TKA group and 10.31 ± 10.55 cmin THA group.A significant difference was found between the 2 groups (P=0.014).13 cases located in femoral veins and upper venous region which were all from THA group.There was a significant difference in the distribution between surgery type and preoperative diagnosis.However,there was no significant difference between other potential factors and distribution of proximal DVT.25 cases accepted the evaluation of symptom of DVT before scanning.However,no significant difference were found in edema,VAS score,Homans sign,Neuof sign between 9 TKA and 16 THA cases.Conclusion Proximal DVTs after knee and hip arthroplasty are more preferred to connect with distal DVT continuously.Surgery type and preoperative diagnosis have a significant effect on the distribution of proximal DVT.Proximal DVTs in THA and patients with preoperative femoral neck fracture could be more easily involving femoral veins and upper parts.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(UC-MSCs)implantation on knee osteoarthritis(OA)in rabbits. Methods The healthy adult New Zealand rabbits were divided into control group(n=4),OA model group(n=4),and treatment group(n= 4).OA model was induced by 4% papain injection(0.1 ml/kg for 2 times),and treatment group were treated with UC-MSCs implantation(1 ml,1×105/L).At 2 weeks after papain injection for preparation of osteoarthritis model,rabbits knee joints were examined by MRI,and synchrony serum levels of IL-6 and-8,MMP-3 and-13 were tested.At 3 weeks after papain injection for OA,1×106/L 1 ml UC-MSCs were injected into articular cavity in treatment group,and normal saline was injected into articular cavity in blank control group and OA model group.At 2 weeks and 4 weeks after the treatment,serum levels of IL-6 and IL-8,MMP-3 and MMP-13 were tested respectively.At 4 weeks after the treatment,knee joints were reexamined again by MRI.After this,the rabbits were sacrificed and synovium and articular cartilage were taken out for HE and immunohistochemistry examination.Serum levels of IL-6 and IL-8,MMP-3 and MMP-13 were tested by ELISA method. Results The levels of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6,IL-8,MMP-3,MMP-13 were significantly higher in model group 〔(44.7 ± 14.5)μg/L,(7.6 ± 2.5)μg/L,(16.5 ± 4.3)μg/L,(4.50 ± 1.20)μg/L〕and in treatment group 〔(43.9 ± 15.2)μg/L,(9.8 ± 2.9μg/L),(18.3 ± 4.9) μg/L,(4.80 ± 1.80)μg/L〕than in control group〔(20.8 ± 11.2)μg/L,(1.2 ± 0.6)μg/L,(2.8 ± 0.9) μg/L,(0.02 ± 0.02)μg/L〕(all P < 0.05).The levels of IL-6,IL-8,MMP-3,MMP-13 were significantly lower after UC-MSCs treatment〔(23.8 ± 11.4)μg/L,(2.4 ± 1.3)μg/L,(10.5 ± 3.4)μg/L,(0.50 ± 0.20)μg/L〕than before treatment(all P<0.05).Based on magnetic resonance imaging,the treatment group versus model group showed an improved coarse cartilage surface,thickened subchondral bone and synovium,and decreased volume of joints effusion.Pathological finding showed lower levels of inflammatory reaction in cartilage and synovium in the treatment group versus model group.Immunohistochemistry showed lower levels of IL-6 and MMP-13(all P<0.05). Conclusions The inflammatory response of cartilage and synovial tissue induces OA progress,and the inflammation factors play a significant role in OA progress.UC-MSCs could protect cartilage and synovial membrane of joints and inhibit the inflammatory response.Therefore,this study provides new therapy method for OA.

Objective:To analyze and learn about the dose to the lens of the eye of interventional radiology workers in some hospitals in shaanxi province from 2018 to 2020.Methods:From 2018 to 2020, three tertiary hospitals in shaanxi province were selected to monitor the dose to the lens of the eye of interventional radiology workers for three consecutive years. Monitoring was made for 152 person times, lasting for a monitoring period of 3 months. Analysis and comparison were carried out of dose equivalents to the interventional radiology workers in terms of different sexes, positions and departments, together with associated influencing factors during the three years.Results:The difference in equivalent dose between the three years is statistically significant ( χ2=29.15, P<0.05), and a downward trend in the average annual equivalent dose was found from 2018 to 2020. The number of interventional radiology workers who received doses to the lens of the eye mainly between MDL and 5.0 mSv accounted for 69.08%. The difference in the average annual equivalent dose in different positions and departments was statistically significant ( H=18.44, 22.55, P<0.05). The average annual equivalent dose to doctor was higher than for nurses and technicians ( Z=-3.36, -3.02, P<0.05). The average annual equivalent dose in cardiovascular medicine department was higher than in other departments, with statistically significant difference ( Z=-2.58, -3.76, -3.40, P<0.05). Logistics regression analysis showed that radiation working hours, positions, routine personal doses, workload and exposure time are the factors that affect the average annual equivalent dose. Conclusions:The annual equivalent dose to the lens of the eye of interventional radiology workers in shaanxi province meets the relevant national standards. However, the annual dose to some radiological workers has a normal high value. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the continued monitoring of the dose to the lens of the eye of the interventional radiology workers, and adjust the types of work for the workers based on radiation work hours, position, routine personal dose, workload and exposure time, so as to effectively reduce the dose level of the eye lens.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of anticoagulant therapy for acute proximal deep vein thrombosis without inferior vena cava filter placement for femoral neck patients before hip arthroplasty.Methods From January 2013 to August 2017,9 femoral neck fractures patients with acute proximal deep vein thrombosis before hip arthroplasty were enrolled into this study.There were 3 men and 6 women.The average age was 76.44±5.39 years old (range,69 to 83 years old).The average injured time before admission was 4.00±4.06 days.All patients received anticoagulant therapy without placement of inferior vena cava filter before hip arthroplasty.Four patients received Rivaroxaban 10mg,two times per day,while two patients received Enoxaparin 0.4 ml,two times per day;3 cases received Batroxobin 0.5 ml,every other day combined with Rivaroxaban 10 mg one time per day or Enoxaparin 0.4 ml,one time per day.The size of thrombus before and after treatment,changes of coagulation markers,the outcome of thrombosis before surgery,during surgery,postoperatively and during follow-up,the related complications were recorded.Results The diagnosis time for proximal DVT was 3.89±3.01 days after admission.8 patients showed proximal DVT combined with distal thrombus and 1 patient showed isolated proximal DVT.The average length of proximal thrombus was 10.78±6.10 cm (range,4.0-20.0 cm).The mean duration of treatment was 14.22±7.03 days.The results showed 5 proximal DVTs have complete disappeared,3 cases significantly improved,and 1 case had no change but showed stable.After treatment,the length of the proximal thrombus was significantly decreased (10.77±6.10 cm vs.4.39±6.50 cm),there were statistically significant between two groups (t=3.429,P=0.009);D-dimer was significantly lower after treatment (10.47±4.87 μg/ml vs.2.59± 1.60 μg/ml) with statistical difference (t=4.970,P=O.O01).However,no statistical significance was found in other coagulation parameters such as plasma prothrombin time,the international normalized ratio,activated partial thromboplastin time,thrombin time,fibrinogen.Incision exudate occurred in one patient and anticoagulant therapy was paused,however,two days later,DVT recurred and then the patient received continuous therapy with drug anticoagulation.The average time for postoperative follow-up was 8.3±7.6 months.At the latest follow-up,4 cases had thoroughly recovered with the thrombi fully resolved;4 cases had significantly improved including three thrombi partly locating in the muscular veins and one partly locating in the infra-popliteal vein.One case became more severe after discharge and received continuous anticoagulant therapy.No death,symptomatic pulmonary embolism,bleeding and other adverse events occurred.Conclusion Inferior vena cava filter placement for femoral neck fracture patients with acute proximal venous thrombosis before hip arthroplasty may not be potent.Anticoagulant therapy which make the proximal thrombus completely dissolved or stabilized before surgery may be effective.
