1.Research progress of pigment epithelium-derived factor ,insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2017;25(3):277-280
Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF ) was originally found fromretinal pigment epithelium. It is confirmed that it plays an anti-angiogenic and apoptosis role in diabetic microangiopathy. Recently ,PEDF has been found to have a close relationship with insulin resistance ,type 2 diabetes and diabetic macroangiopathy. But the mechanism is unclear. More and more researches focused on its role in oxidative stress. PEDF may become a new target for diabetes and diabetic complication treatment and also a predictive factor for the disease.

Objective: To observe the effects of erigeron injection on the biochemical indicators of hepatotoxicity caused by ischemia and reperfusion of the mice intestine. Methods:A experimental model of liver lesion induced by ischemia-reperfusion of the mice intestine was set up. Serum was obtained after 20 minutes of ischemia followed by 1 hour of reperfusion. Contents of SOD and MDA in liver were measured. Results: The serum ALT significantly increased following ischemia and reperfusion, which was attenuated by the erigeron injection (P<0.01). Erigeron injection can also increase the contents of SOD and MDA in the mice liver (p<0.05 and 0.01, respectively). Conclusion: Erigeron injection can improve the biochemical indicators of liver lesion induced by ischemia and reperfusion of the mice intestine. It is indicated that the protective effects of erigeron injection was related to anti-oxidation mechanisms.

OBJECTIVE To compare the treatment effects of secreory otitis media with artificial eustachian tube insertion and tympanotomy tube insertion.To provide useful information for the treatment of secretory otitis media.METHODS Seventy-one patients(86 ears) with secretory otitis media were randomly divided into tow groups:experimental group(36 cases,44 ears) and control group(35 cases 42 ears).The experimental group was treated by artificial eustachian tube insertion under nasal endoscope.Drugs were injected through the tube into the tympanic cavity everyday after flushing it. The control group were treated by traditional method—the tympanic ventilation tube.All patients were followed up for 6 months.RESULTS The experimental group: 21 ears(47.73%) were cured,19 ears(43.18%) were straightened up,and no effects observed in 4 ears (9.09%).The control group:12 ears(28.57%) cured,17 ears(40.48%) wered straightened up and no effects obsered in 13 ears(30.95%).The efficiency rate of the experimental group(90.91%) was much higher than the control group(69.05%,P

?AIM:To investigate the causes and characteristics of retinal detachment after vitrectomy.?METHODS: Retrospective analysis of patients in our hospital in recent 4a who underwent primary, standard, three -port pars plana vitrectomy ( PPV ) . Retinal detachment occurred in 24 eyes ( 23 cases ) , 24-67 years old, average 49.0±12.0 years old.There were male in 17 cases, female in 6 cases, 6 right eyes, 18 left eyes.?RESULTS:Eighteen (75%) eyes without any symptoms were found during a routine check, 6 eyes ( 25%) with decreased visual acuity or in front of shadow.It took 1-223d from PPV to retinal detachment, average 40.7 ± 54.2d, of which retinal detachment occurred in 10 (42%) eyes within 1wk, 14 (58%) eyes within 1mo.The direct cause of retinal detachment was new retinal break ( a total of 27 holes ) in 19 eyes, proliferative vitreoretinopathy ( PVR) in 4 eyes, 1 eyes with primary hole not closed.All retinal detachment were ultimately completely reset.?CONCLUSION: The occurrence of new retinal breaks is the main cause of retinal detachment after vitrectomy, attention should be paid to the early postoperative peripheral retinal examination;after a timely surgery, the retina can be reset.
