Background Extracellular matrix (ECM) has various kinds of types and important biological function.The important role of ECM during choroidal neovascularization (CNV) arouse attention.Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which is one of ECMs, involves in the formation of blood vessels, but the relationship between CNV and ICAM-1 is still unknown.Objective This study was to observe the dynamic expression of ICAM-1 in krypton laser-induced CNV and explore the effect of ICAM-1 on CNV.Methods Forty-eight healthy male clean BN rats were randomly divided into post-photocoagulation 1-week group,2-week group,3-week group,4-week group, 5-week group, 6-week group, 7-week group and 8-week group.Laser-induced CNV models were monocularly established and the fellow eyes served as the normal controls.Fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) was carried out to quantitate the leakage degree (absorbency).The eyeballs were enucleated on various time points,and CNV areas were assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining;immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization assay were employed, respectively, for the detection of relative expression levels of ICAM-1 protein and mRNA (absorbency).The use and care of the animals complied with the Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Committee.Results After laser photocoagulation,the retinal inner and outer nuclear layers were ruptured and invaginated.Disruption of Bruch membrane and macrophages migrating to the photocoagulation zone were seen under the optical microscope.The proliferation of fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells was exhibited.ICAM-1 protein was mainly expressed in vascular endothelial cells,retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells and macrophages,and ICAM-1 mRNA was mainly expressed in the outer nuclear layer.Statistically significant differences were found in the fluorescence leakage degree, the relative expression levels of ICAM-1 protein and mRNA as well as CNV areas among the groups (F=178.839, 739.077,2 463.508,194.434, all at P＜0.05).The gradually enlarged CNV area, increased fluorescence leakage, up-regulation of ICAM-1 protein and mRNA expressions were matched with the extension of time after photocoagulation and peaked in the post-photocoagulation 8-week group.Conclusions The expressions of ICAM-1 protein and mRNA up-regulate upon the increase of CNV area and fluorescein leakage, suggesting that ICAM-1 might play an important role in CNV development.

Objective To observe the effect of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection on choroidal neovascularization in brown Norway rats. Methods Thirty-six healthy brown Norway rats were divided randomly into control group (n=18) and experimental group (n=18), while one eye was chosen randomly as experimental eye. The choroidal neovascularization model was establishied, while 8μl triamcin-olone acetonide was injected in vitreous body immediately after photocoagulation in the experimental group, and the same volume isotonic balanced salt solution was injected in the control group. The eyes of six rats were enucleated for histological slices in the second, forth, and sixth week, respectively. The expression of nuclear factor-kappa B was detected with immunohistochemical method, and the max area of choroidal neovascularization was also measured. Results The area of choroidal neovascularization was smaller, and the expression of nucle-ar factor-kappa B was lower in the experimental group than in the control group (t>7.450, P<0.001). Conclusion Triamcinolone acetonide could effectively inhibit the development of choroidal neovascularization, and decrease the expression of nuclear factor-kappa B in brown Norway rats.

To investigate and analyze inadvisable combination of Chinese materia medica recorded in China Pharmacopeia 2005 edition and 2010 edition, and to provide convenience for physicians and pharmacists in clinical practice.

The circle of Willis is the major cerebral collateral circulation.Its anatomical variation is in populations higher.The previous studies showed that anatomical variation in circle of Willis was an independent risk factor for cerebral ischemia.This article reviews the relationship between the various anatomical variation types of the circle of Willis and cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestation, diseased region, and possible mechanism of serious unilateral spatial neglect (USN),and analyze the effect of rehabilitation management.MethodsFive stroke patients with USN and without hemianopsia were selected and the data of clinical examination before and after rehabilitation management was analyzed.ResultsAll of five patients complicated obvious left spatial neglect and were right handedness. The results of examination for USN before and after rehabilitation management were significantly different ( P<0.05).ConclusionMany examinations for USN can detect remaining vision spatial attention, of which Albent test is most effective; the rehabilitation management has certain effect.

Objective:To establish a quantitative method for the determination of lysine hydrochloride in pediatric compound lysine granules. Methods:The quantitative determination was performed on an amino acids analyzer. The cationic resin column(150 mm × 4. 6 mm,7 μm)was used. The mobile phase was citrate buffer solution (pH 3. 45) and citrate buffer solution (pH 10. 85) with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0. 45 ml·min-1 . The detection wavelengths were set at 570 nm and 440 nm. Results:The linear range of lysine hydrochloride was 2. 692-21. 536 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 5), and the average sample recovery was 98. 85% with RSD of 0. 63% (n=9). Conclusion:The method is sensitive, simple and reproducible. It can be used for the quality control of pediatric compound lysine gran-ules.

Objective To observe the effect of four-handed technique in light cured resin veneer in the treatment of dental fluorosis. Methods Eighty outpatients with dental fluorosis in our hospital from January 2011 to January 2014 were randomly divided into two groups: 40 in the study group were treated with four-handed technique and another 40 in the control group with one-doctor manual operation. The two groups were compared in terms of treatment duration and curative effect. Result The treatment duration in the study was significantly shorter than that of the control group and the curative effect was significantly better than that of the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion As for the light cured resin veneer in the treatment of patients with dentalfluorosis in the process , the four-handed technique is better than one-doctor manual operation.
