Ex-PRESS miniature implantation is a new alternative of anti-glaucoma surgeries due to its advantages,such as simpler operation,similar efficacy to trabeculectomy and less complications.Could Ex-PRESS miniature implantation replace the trabeculectomy? Studies showed that Ex-PRESS implantation has more significant advantages to those patients with high risk for trabeculectomy but dose not has dominant benefits to those prone to failure of trabeculectomy from bleb scarring.The Ex-PRESS implantation requires a relative wide angle so as to have enough space to avoid the device accessing to corneal endothelium,iris or lens.So it is unsuitable for angle-closure glaucoma with higher incidence in China.In addition,the cost-effect for Ex-PRESS implantation should also be fully considered when this method could be put into practice in the near future in China.Ex-PRESS implantation seems to be unable to displace trabeculectomy.The merits and demerits for Chinese patients still need to verify by Chinese own evidence-based studies.

BACKGROUND: Induced pluripotent stem cells are obtained from somatic cells by reprogramming method. The safety of induced pluripotent stem cells has attracted much attention because of their huge and potential value in clinical application. OBJECTIVE: To review the current studies addressing the safety and clinical application of induced pluripotent stem cells. METHODS: The PubMed database between 2006 and 2012 was retrieved by the first author to search the correlative documents concerning the safety and clinical application of induced pluripotent stem cells. Total y 203 papers were primarily gotten. Final y, 47 papers were included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At present, the main methods to enhance the safety of induced pluripotent stem cells include avoiding usage of c-Myc gene, another mediate way replacing the retrovirus, direct leading of reprogramming factor protein, safer donor cells, micromolecule compound and other in-transgenosis ways. Induced pluripotent stem cells have extensive clinic treatment prospects, and can be used for the build of disease-specific induced pluripotent stem cells line.

Objective To describe characteristics of adult respiratory tract influenza virus A (INFA)infection.Method 804 adult patients with acute respiratory tract infections were enrolled and 156 cases of healthy adults were concomitantly selected. Enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay was used to measure INFA serum specific IgM antibody.Result (1)In the total patients , 17.6% had positive INFA-IgM,significantly higher than the control(P

Cell transplantation has great potentials in repairing damaged tissue.If we want to use the cell transplants to treat diseases that respond poorly to the conventional treatment,or provide better treatments,in vivo dynamic tracking is particularly important.The application of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) improves a common inconvenience of the current invasive tests including immunohistochemical study or transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study and so on.Researchers has established a variety of preparation methods of the particles,groped the optimal condition of cell marking.SPIO were proved to be feasible and superior in cell tracking in vivo through animal experiments.The results provide the reliable means of using SPIO to track cell in clinical treatments.This review gives a summary of the related study.

Objective To investigate the correlationship of second-trimester serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) level and preeclampsia, premature rupture of membranes and preterm delivery. Methods 200 cases of second-trimester gestational serum hCG level was determined by radioimmunoassay,and the pregnancy outcome was followed up. Results The maternal serum hCG level in every gestative week has no significant differences;hCG level of pregnancies with preeclampsia,premature rupture membranes and preterm delivery was significantly higher than normal pregnancies. The rate of developing preeclampsia,premature rupture of membranes and preterm delivery in those hCG ≥2MOM patients (30.9%、35.8% and 14.8% respectively)was significantly higher than those MshCG

Background Intracranial vascular malformation causes different neurophthalmological symptoms and signs due to oppressing visual-related tissue and cranial nerves after hemorrhage.However,there is no availably systematic clinical research on this disease up to now.Objective This retrospective cases analysis was to explore the neurophthalmological features of intracranial vascular malformation.Methods The clinical datas were collected from 100 cases with intracranial vascular malformation in Affiliated Third Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from June,2007 to June,2013.The neurophthalmological clinical features including general condition,initial symptom,concomitant symptoms and image results were retrospectively surveyed.Results Neurophthalmological symptoms and signs were found in 20 patients with intracranial vascular malformation by CT and MRI with the detectability 20％ (20/100).The main neurophthalmological symptoms were visual field defect (50％,10/20) and vision loss (45％,9/20).The neurophthalmological signs were pupil abnormalities (35％,7/20).Other neurophthalmological features included optic nerve atrophy (5 ％,1/20),papilloedema (5 ％,1/20) and oculomotor nerve palsy (5 ％,1/20),etc.The relevant cranial diseases included cerebral arteriovenous malformation in 60％ patients (12/20),cavernous angiomas in 35％ (7/20) and venous malformation with cavernous angiomas (1/20).The lesions of cerebral arteriovenous malformation were located in occipital lobe (4 cases),parietal-occipital area (3 cases),temporal lobe (3 cases) and frontal lobe (1 case),midbrain area (1 case) ; while those of cavernous angiomas were located in parietal lobe (1 case),occipital lobe (1 case),gyrus cingulated area occipital lobe (1 case),carvenous sinus (1 case),temporal lobe (1 case),parietal-temporal area (1 case) and pons area (1 case).Intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 14 patients in subarachnoid space (6 cases) and brain (8 cases).Conclusions The patients with intracranial vascular malformation have different neurophthalmological symptoms and signs.Sufficient attention should be paid to the patients with neurophthalmological symptoms and signs.
