? AIM: To analyze clinical characteristics and postoperative outcomes after open globe injury.?METHODS: Demographic characteristics ( age, gender, eye trauma, profession, cause of injury and injured part ) , as well as complications and prognosis were analyzed in 152 cases (152 eyes) of open globe injury.? RESULTS: Patients with open globe injury had an average age of 40. 45±38. 32 years old with a 5. 9:1 male-to-female gender ratio. The left-to-right eye ratio was 1. 27:1. Most patients were workers, farmers, or retired. The most common etiologies were scratches, boxing, and falls. Zone Ⅲ was the most commonly injured part. Iridoptosis or iris incarceration, retinal detachment, vitreal prolapse, hyphema or hypopyon, and vitreous hemorrhage were the most common complications. Visual acuity improved in 86 cases postoperatively but ophthalmectomy was still required in 25 eyes.?CONCLUSION: Vision can be improved after surgery in open globe injury. However, patients are usually seriously injured and improvement is minimal, thereby resulting in a great loss to patients and society.
4. Research progress on seed germination of Dendrobium species
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2013;48(19):1629-1633
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research progress on seed germination of Dendrobium plants. METHODS: The home and abroad published literatures were searched and reviewed. RESULTS: Asymbiotic germination was carried out on over twenty Dendrobium species, and the related techniques have been used for seedling production. The studies on symbiotic germination are in the ascendant, and some germination-promoting fungi have been discovered, which mainly include Tulasnellales spp. and Sebacima spp.. The fungi possess a good application prospect on seedling production. CONCLUSION: Asymbiotic and symbiotic germination are the two main research issues of Dendrobium species, and the latter should develop into an important technique in artificial cultivation of medicinal Dendrobium plants.
5. Research progress on chemical composition and chemical analysis of Dendrobium officinale
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2013;48(19):1634-1640
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research progress on chemical constituent and chemical analysis of Dendrobium officinale. METHODS: The literatures published in the last decade were searched and reviewed. RESULTS: D. officinale mainly contains polysaccharides, stilbenes, lignans and phenols. Fingerprint analysis, monosaccharide composition analysis of polysaccharide, and multivariate statistical analysis could help in the identification and the quality evaluation of D. officinale. CONCLUSION: It is imperative to determine the low-molecular effective components of D. officinale. Multi-component analysis should be beneficial to perfect the quality evaluation system for D. officinale.

?Proliferative diabetic retinopathy ( PDR ) is a group of disease characterized by neovascular disease complication of diabetes mellitus. Neovascular diseases of eye are one of the major causes of blindness of the world. Recent studies showed that vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) and pigment epithelium-derived factor ( PEDF ) are now accepted as the key cytokine in the development of diabetic retinopathy. Recent progress in the investigation of VEGF and PEDF of PDR are summarized in this review.

Abstract? AIM: To investigate changes of anterior chamber parameters after posterior chamber phakic implantable collamer lens ( ICL ) surgery and its correlation with intraocular pressure ( IOP) .?METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study. Seventy four eyes in 43 myopia patients were examined by Allegro Oculyzer anterior segment tomography to obtain the changes of anterior chamber volume ( ACV ) , anterior chamber angle ( ACA) , central anterior chamber depth ( ACD) and vault, meanwhile, to measure the IOP to analyze the correlation with anterior chamber parameters.?RESULTS: Compared with preoperative, ACV, ACA, ACD all decreased apparently ( P <0.01 ) in the postoperative period of 1, 3, and 6mo.ACV, ACA and ACD showed their stability in each period after the surgery.There were changes of vault in 1 and 6mo ( t=27.66, P=0.01).IOP had not altered when compared with the preoperative.This research revealed that IOP had no relation with ACV, ACA, ACD and vault in every phase( all P>0.05).?CONCLUSION:For patients underwent ICL, the anterior chamber parameters all decreased which included ACV, ACA, ACD, and had stabilized since early postoperative period. Correspondingly, IOP was stable and had not correlate with ACV, ACA, ACD and vault, however the long-term observation is still necessary.

BACKGROUND: Homogenate meals, as a replacement of normal diet, can be used in either hospitals or families. The homogenate meal as nutritious supplements should contain multiple components when it is applied in senior patients with chronic diseases because of the longterm application and complex complications.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of longterm tube feed of finished product of homogenate meal on the nutritious supplements of senior patients.DESIGN: A cross-sectional study based on diagnosis.SETTING, PARTICIPANTS and METHODS: Totally 24 senior patients with chronic diseases who had been used self-made finished products of homogenate meal for more than 1 year were selected for nutritious supplement from Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. The changes of nutritious index at before and 4, 8 and 12 months after supplement were observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Anthropometric measurement index and laboratorial index of 24 senior patients with chronic diseases before and after intervention were compared.RESULTS: Serous albumin at before nutritious supplements, and 4, 8 and 12 months after supplements were[ (36.4 ± 4.03), (36.60 ± 4.42),(38.20 ± 3.77), and(40.40 ± 3. 33) ] g/L respectively. Phosphorus and peripheral lymphocytes were significantly heightened while blood sugar began to decrease since 4 months after intervention, which all had significant differences compared with that of before intervention( t =2. 196 -2. 356,P <0.05; t=2.958-3.431. P <0.01) .Anthropometric measurement index also improved compared with that of before intervention.CONCLUSION: Longterm application of finished product of homogenate meal can improve the nutritious status of senior patients with chronic diseases.
