Objective:To investigate the toxicity effect of intravitreous injection with conventional dosage of domestic triamcinolone acetonide (TA) on rabbits retina. Methods:Forty-eight healthy purebred New Zealand white rabbits nnderwent intravitreous injection. The right eye of the 24 animals was injected wilh sterile saline solution 0.1ml as the control A group; and the left eye was injected with TA suspension 4mg (0.1ml) as the B experimental group;The right eye of the other 24 animals was injected with TA 0.1ml wilhout excipient as the C experimenlal group,the exeipient removed was supplemented with terile saline solution;and the left eye was injected with exeipient 0.1ml separated from TA suspension as the D experimental group. Flash electroretinography (FERG) was performed on each animal before intravitreous injection,3 days,2 weeks,and 1 months after the injected. After the examination the animal was killed and the eyeballs were extirpated at the three points of time after the injected. The ultrastructural changes of the retina were observed by light and electron microscopy. Results:No significant difference was found in the latent period of b-wave of FERG before and after the injected,but the amplitudes of b-wave of FERG was lower in all the groups than that before the treatment in a short time after the injected (P

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of intravitreous injection with conventional dosage of domestic triamcinolone acetonide(TA)for retinal edema in rabbits. Methods:The model of retinal edema was established with argon laser photocoagulation to retinal vein in fourty-eight healthy purebred New Zealand white rabbits. The right eye of A group wasn't injected anything as the control group, and the right eye of B group was injected with TA suspension 4mg(0.1ml)as the TA group. Six animals were killed randomly 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 1 month after the injected. The changes of the retinal edema were observed by light microscopy. The expression of VEGF mRNA and IL-6 were observed respectively by hybridization in situ and immunohistochemical method. Results:The model of retinal edema was established in all the eyes. The pathologic changes in TA group were better than that in control group. The expressions of VEGF mRNA and IL-6 in control group were higher than in TA group (P

Objective To investigate the characteristics of multifocal visual evoked potential (mf-VEP) in healthy individuals, and provide normal reference values for its clinical application. Methods The mf-VEP of 37 healthy individuals (70 eyes) were examined by VERIS Science TM 4.0. The visual stimulus was a dart board with patterns consisted of 60 patches spanning a 25? visual field. The length of m-sequence was 2 14-1. The results were recorded by bipolar occipital straddle. The signal was amplified 100 K and was put through a band-pass filter between 3 and 100 Hz. The first slice of the second order kernel was analyzed by VERIS software. The summed responses of fields with different stimulus were analyzed and compared according to different ages, genders and eyes. Results The latencies and response densities of amplitude had statistically significant differences both in dimidiate and quartered field(P 0.05). Conclusions The mf-VEP of healthy individuals can reflect the VEP at different field locations objectively with its specific physiological characteristics, which may provide normal reference values for its clinical application.

ObjectiveTo analyze the symmetry of multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) between both eyes in normal subjects. Methods The monocular mfVEP of both eyes in thirty-six normal subjects (72 eyes) was tested with VERIS Science 4.0. The stimulus was the pattern reversal dart array consisted of 60 sectors each included 16 black-white reverse patterns. The visual stimulation was controlled by the binary pseudo-random m-sequences and subtended approximately 25 degrees. Results There existed no statistically significant difference of P1 latencies and amplitudes between correspondent quadrant visual field of both eyes. The data difference of the ipsilateral quadrant visual fields was greater than those of the correspondent quadrant visual field. The comparison among four quadrant visual fields in right eye or left eye each showed that there was statistically significant difference of P1 latencies between the superionasal quadrant visual field and inferiotemporal or inferionasal quadrant visual fields. Conclusions The symmetry of normal mfVEP is more dominant in retina than that in visual cortex.

Objective To investigate the bacterial pathogenesis in chronic prostatitis. Methods The prostatic fluid of 132 patients was studied with "five glass"segmented lower urinary tract localization culture test and measurement of IgA and IgG levels.Some bacteria positive cases were treated with levofloxacin. Results 74 patients were bacteria positive in their prostates,32 had Staphylococcus aureus,17 with Staphylococcus epidermidis,10 cases had Escherichia coli and 15 with other bacteria IgG and IgA levels were significantly higher ( P =0.031 and P =0.036) in bacteria positive prostatic fluid than in bacteria negatives ones. Conclusions The positive rate of bacteria culture in the prosatic fluid of patients with chronic prostatitis was high (56.1%) and Gram positive bacterias were more common.These pathogens may come from the partners reproductive tract.The levels of IgA and IgG in prostatic fluid were correlated to the results of bacteria culture.

Tumor-specific promoters can induce high-efficiency and specific expression of exogenous genes in tumor cells. At present, commonly used promoters include alpha-fetoprotein promoter, carcinoembryonic antigen promoter,prostate specific antigen promoter,human telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter and multidrug resistance gene promoter and etc. Dual promoters, enhancer, regulatory element and other physical or chem-ical factors could be used to reconstruct or modify promoters to increase the expression and location of exogenous genes in tumor cells. Tumor-specific promoters play an important role in cancer gene targeted therapy by cou-pling with suicide gene, anti- oncogene, antiseuse nucleic acid, apoptosis gene and RNA interference.

Objective:To study the effect of simvastatin on PTHrP stimulated osteoclastic resorption of murine calvarium and bone anabolism in vitro. Methods:Osteoclasts were isolated from bone marrow of Balb/C mice,cultured and identified.Calvaria of the new born Balb/C mice were cultured with PTHrP at 45 ng/ml and/or simvastatin at 10~ -7 -10~ -5 mol/L for 8 d.Ca~ 2+ and ALP in the culture supernatent were measured by atom spectrophotometer and automatic biochemical analyzer respectively.The bones were examined histologically.Results:Simvastatin at 10~ -7 -10~ -5 mol/L inhibited osteoclast formation and the osteoclastic bone resorption stimulated by PTHrP in vitro and reduced the release of Ca~ 2+ from the cultured osteoclasts in a dose-dependent manner. Simvastatin increased the ALP activities and bone mineralization of murines calvaria cultured in vitro. Conclusions:Simvastatin may inhibit the osteoclasric resorption stimulated by PTHrP and promote bone mineralization in vitro.

Objective To compare the outcomes of TOT and TVT procedure treating female intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).Methods From May 2010 to September 2015,42 stress urinary incontinence (SUI) patients whose abdominal leak point pressure was less than 60 cmH2O were enrolled in this study.Thirty-five patients were followed up.The mean age was (56.8 ±10.5) years,with a range of 30-80 years.The mean history was(10.5 ± 9.1)years,with a range of 4 months to 30 years,with 26 (74.3％) of them being postmenopausal,5 (14.3％) having a history of pelvic surgery,and no pelvic organ prolapsed or hormone replacement.All of them were randomly divided into 2 groups to undergo either TVT operation (13 cases) or TOT operation (22 cases).The baseline characteristics of the two groups including age,length of history,urodynamic parameters and scale scores showed no significant difference.The scales including urinary incontinence severity score (UISS),detrusor instability score (DIS),Quality of Life Scale Evaluation (I-QOL),lower urinary tract symptoms affect score (UDI-6) were used.The outcomes between TVT group and TOT group were compared.Result After procedure,patients in TVT group got a lower UISS score than TOT group(17.2 ± 2.2 vs.17.7 ± 3.1),and their severity of urinary incontinence improved significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Patients from TVT group got a lower DIS score than TOT group (12.6 ± 4.2 vs.14.2 ± 3.5),and their detrusor instability symptoms improved more significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Patients from TVT group got a higher I-QOL score than TOT group(17.5 ± 14.5 vs.16.1 ± 13.0),and their quality of life improved more significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Patients from TVT group got a lower UDI-6 score than TOT group (10.1 ± 3.0 vs.11.2 ± 3.4),and their lower urinary tract symptoms improved more significantly (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Urinary incontinence of female ISD patients were improved greater by TVT than TOT procedure.

Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence,treatment and prognosis of silent pulmonary embolism (PE) after off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).Methods From December 2009 to September 2012,582 consecutive patients underwent off-pump CABG by a same surgeon.Their age ranged from 16 to 86 years with a mean age of (61.4 ± 9.3) years.Left internal mammary artery and saphenous vein were harvested routinely.A dose of 20 mg unfractionated heparin was given intravenously every 6 hours on the operative day after postoperative pleural fluid less than 50 ml per hour.All patients received aspirin 100 mg daily starting on postoperative day 1.The 64-slice coronary MDCT was performed to assess the graft patency on postoperative day 5 ～ 7.Results There were no in-hospital death.PE,which involved the lobar or more proximal arteries,was detected on the CT images of 10 patients (1.7％).In these 10 patients,there were no significant dyspnea or hypoxemia postoperatively ; echocardiography and ECG showed no specific signs of PE ; all bypass grafts were patent in CT images except a LIMA to LAD graft with LAD endarterectomy.PE involved both lungs in 6 patients,and only the right lung in 4 patients.All patients received anticoagulation with warfarin for 3 to 6 months except one.All patients were with good quality of life during 6 to 18 months of follow-up.Three to six months after discharge,8 patients received repeated MDCT,which showed diminish of PE.Conclusion Acute PE after off-pump CABG was an uncommon complication and was difficult to diagnose.MDCT played an important role in examining the patency of graft vessels and helped detect silent PE in CABG patients.The prognosis of acute PE after off-pump CABG was acceptable.PE diminished after 3 months of anticoagulation with warfarin.
