Objective To investigate the influence of early hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on cerebral edema and neural function in patients after minimally invasive surgery for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods A random number table was used to divide 148 ICH surgery patients into a control group (n =75) and a treatment group (n =73).In the treatment group,HBO was administered in 51 cases 6-24 hours after surgery and then once a day for twenty days.Cerebral edema volume was measured by brain CT before the operation and on the 3rd,7th,14th and 21st day after the surgery.Neurological impairment was scored at the same time points.Results Average cerebral edema volume was significantly smaller in the treatment group than in the control group on the 7th,14th and 21st days,but not on the 3rd day.The neurological impairment scores (NIS) after therapy were significantly lower than that before therapy in both groups.The two groups' average scores were not significantly different before the operation or on the 3rd day,but they were significantly lower in the treatment group thereafter.Conclusion Early HBO therapy can significantly reduce cerebral edema and contribute to nerve functional recovery in patients after minimally invasive ICH surgery.

AIM: To observe the effects of scleral buckling surgery for retinal detachment under microscope and under indirect ophthalmoscope.
METHODS: Forty - six patients ( 46 eyes ) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-six patients received surgeries under microscope was retrospectively analyzed and compared to that of 20 patients who received surgeries under indirect ophthalmoscope by the same operator.
RESULTS: No statistical difference was found in patients' operation method choice, including condensation reaction reattachment situation and the retina reset operation at a time ( P> 0. 05 ). The best corrected visual acuity of microscopic group after 1mo of operation was better than before operation, and the improving rate of vision after operation was higher than that of the traditional group (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION:The curative effect of external approach microsurgery has the similar efficacy with the conventional external approach surgery, and gets better visual acuity.

? AlM: To analyze the reason of corneal epithelial implantation and ingrowth after laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASlK ) , and summarize the treatment experiences.
?METHODS: The clinical data of postoperative corneal epithelial ingrowth on 18 cases (30 eyes) from 1 256 cases (2 256 eyes) after LASlK were retrospectively analyzed in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2012. After the treatment of all eyes, patients’ general visual quality scores before and after treatment were analyzed.
?RESULTS:There were 18 cases ( 30 eyes ) with corneal epithelial implantation and ingrowth after LASlK, and the incidence rate was 1. 3%. ln the 18 cases (30 eyes), there were 12 eyes corneal flap epithelial ingrowth caused by postoperative trauma, 12 eyes caused by multiple corneal flap flush, 2 eyes caused by intraoperative irregular corneal flap, and nothing special for 4 eyes. The classification of corneal epithelial ingrowth of 30 eyes:grade I, 11 cases (18 eyes);gradeII, 4 cases (8 eyes);grade Ⅲ, 3 cases ( 4 eyes ) . Grade I-II were treated with TobraDex eye drops and intraocular pressure lowering drug. Grade Ⅲ firstly were treated by drugs, otherwise by surgery if it didn’t improve. After treatment, 8 cases (13 eyes) epithelial ingrowth disappeared from 11 cases ( 18 eyes ) , 3 cases ( 5 eyes ) implanted epithelial tumor shrank in grade l;epithelial implantation of 2 cases (4 eyes) in grade II disappeared, implantation degree of 2 cases (4 eyes) reduced to grade I;2 cases (2 eyes) in grade Ⅲ had 0. 5 ~ 1mm wide flap edge shallow gray ribbon 1 mm inside the limbus, visual acuity was 0. 8 ~1. 2, 1 case ( 2 eyes ) treated with curettage corneal epithelial implantation and endophytic epithelium hadn’t relapsed in the follow-up. After the treatment, 18 cases of corneal epithelial ingrowth got lower visual quality scores than those before therapy (Hc=10. 511, P<0. 01).
?CONCLUSlON: Operation standardized, postoperative early detection and aggressive treatment are important for prevention and treatment of complications after LASlK.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect and mechanism of Bufei Qingyu Granule (BQG) in mollifying the skin of scleroderma model mice.
METHODSScleroderma model induced with bleomycin in BALB/C mice 8-weeks old were administered with different dose of BQG for 26 days. The pathological changes of the mice skin were observed.
RESULTSTreatment with low, medium and high dose of BQG showed a tendency to ameliorate the thickened dermis in scleroderma mice but without statistical significance. Medium and high dose of BQG reduced the perivasculitis of dermis and alleviated the reduction or deletion of accessory structure, such as hair follicle and sweat gland. And the spleen index was lower markedly in mice treated with BQG of any dose than that in the untreated model mice (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONBQG could ameliorate the sclerosed skin in model mice and prevent the occurrence of splenomegaly.

Objective: To study relationship between exercise and risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Methods: A total of 750 military cadres retired or on the job, who received convalescence therapy in Guangzhou sanatorium, were enrolled as survey subjects, and divided into exercise group(488 cases), and no- exercise group (262 cases). The cardiovascular risk factors such as blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose(FBS), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG)and uric acid were measured. Questionnaires were used to survey mode of exercise, exercise frequency, exercise duration each time and total exercise time in a day. Results: 1. In no-exercise group, levels of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, BMI, FBS, TC and TG were significantly higher than those of exercise group (P<0.05 all), but there were no significant difference in age and levels of HDL-C, LDL-C and uric acid between the two groups(P>0.05 all); 2. (1) Abnormal rate of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (call for short was risk rate, similarly hereinafter)in different exercise duration each time (≥30 min、<30 min)and exercise mode(walking, taijiquan)were no significant(P>0.05 all);(2)Risk rate in subjects who took exercise >60min in a day was significantly lower than that of those with ≤60min (29.41% vs. 45.59%), in subjects whose exercise intensity with RPE(Borg rating of perceived exertion scale)11~15 was significantly lower than that of with RPE <11 (33.67% vs. 44.64%), P<0.05 all;(3)Risk rate in subjects whose exercise frequency ≥3 times/week was significantly lower than that of with <3 times/week (31.47% vs.8.43%), in subjects whose persistence time of exercise was 10~19 years was significantly lower than that of with <10 years, P<0.05 all. Conclusion: 1. Risk extent of cardiovascular diseases is lower in exercise group, and there is additive effect in risk factor for cardiovascular diseases; 2. take exercise >60min/d, Borg rating of perceived exertion scale 11~15, exercise frequency ≥3 times/week and long time persistence are conduce to decrease risk of cardiovascular diseases in middle-aged and aged persons.
