Abstract?AIM:To investigate the therapeutic effect of Lucentis in the treatment of anterior segment neovascularization ( ASNV ) induced by central retinal vein occlusion ( CRVO) .?METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study for patients with ASNV secondary to CRVO from January 2013 to December 2014 and treated with intravitreal injection of lucentis. Best visual acuity ( BCVA ) , intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , iris examination and gonioscopy, and if necessary, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography, were recorded.The follow-up time was 6-13mo, the average was 9.1 ± 2.9mo.?RESULTS: Eighteen patients ( 18 eyes ) were treated with intravitreal injection of lucentis;15 patients (15 eyes) of the 18 were treated with panretinal photocoagulation;the other 3 patients 3 eyes were not received the photocoagulation because of vitreous opacity. One patient was treated with glaucoma valve implantation.Six patients with only neovascularization and without glaucoma were improved in visual acuity whose intraocular pressure was controlled after combined treatment.Of the patients with neovascular glaucoma ( n=12 ) , after intravitreal injection of lucentis and panretinal photocoagulation, the IOP was controlled in 4 patients (4 eyes);the IOP of another 7 cases reduced but glaucoma drugs were still needed.One patient ( 1 eye ) received glaucoma valve implantation because of bad control on IOP with worse vision after implantation.The rubeosis disappeared in all patients.?CONCLUSION:Intravitreal injection of lucentis can stop neovascularization and help to control IOP.In the early stage without neovascular glaucoma, lucentis has better effects, which means early detection and intervention are important.

Objective:To Integrated PACS and hospital information systems (HIS), and improve the efficiency of PACS, and improve the user experience. Methods:Base on deeply analysis of existing problems in system application, using process optimization, software optimization, and hardware upgrades manner optimize PACS. Results: PACS and HIS realized Integrated, improving the overall performance of the PACS. Enhance the user experience and expand the application scope of PACS. Conclusion: Deeply analysis of existing problems should be done before optimizing the system. Process optimization, software environment optimization should be considered as the most important and upgrading and replacement of the hardware as the secondary.

Because absence of lymphoadenopathy, and often associated with haemophagocytic syndrome, the intravascular malignant lymphoma(IVL) is easy mistaken as malignant histiocytosis or connective tissue disease or vasculitis, the diagnosis was difficult while patients were alive. The clinical course of this disorder (IVL)was aggressive and carried a poor prognosis. The cases of this disorder are not too rare to be seen in our country. To enhance one′s ability to differentiate disorder in unknown fever diseases are extremely necessary.

A deficient of plasma VW factor-cleaving protease (ADAMTS13) and appearance of unusually large multimers induced platelets aggregation in capillaries and arterioles. It was critical pathogenesis of thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura (TTP). ADAMTS13 activity has been measured over 1000patients of TTP and hemolysis uremia syndrome (HUS) since 1997. Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity,as well as clinical significance of ADAMTS13 deficiency for TTP patients were evaluated,and synthetical diagnosis basis of TTP were raised.

Infantile spasms is a type of refractory epilepsy syndrome.This epilepsy syndrome is characterized by special tonic spasms,a peculiar set of electroencephalographic findings termed hypsarrhythmia,and arrest of psychomotor development in most patients.The etiology is not clearly understood.Recently,mutations of the arista less related homeobox gene(ARX),cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5(CDKL5)/se-rine/threonine kinase 9 gene(STK9),membrane associated guanylate kinase 2 gene(MAGI2),et al,and abnormal chromosome had been found to be responsible for infantile spasms.In this review,progress of infantile spasms in molecular genetics are discussed.

Objective To compared the electrophysiological features in peripheral vertigo and central vertigo. Methods The electronystagmograph ( ENG ) and brainstem auditory evoked potentials ( BAEP ) were applied in peripheral vertigo group(85 cases) and central vertigo group(61 cases).Result ENG abnomal was in 67 cases (78.8%) in peripheral vertigo group.Overshoot or undershoot of dysmetria test was in 6 cases ( 7.1%);spontaneous nystagmus was in 5 cases(5.9%);abnormal of gaze test was in 16 cases(18.8%); eye tracking test typeⅠwas in 42 case(49.4%), typeⅡwas in 17 cases(20.0%), and typeⅢwas in 8 cases(9.4%); bilateral asymmetry of optokinetic nystagmus test was in 19 cases(22.4%);positioning nystagmus was in 51 cases(60.0%);abnormal of cold and hot test was in 31 cases(36.5%).ENG abnomal was 42 cases(49.4%) in central vertigo group.Overshoot or undershoot of dysmetria test was in 19 case(31.1%);spontaneous nystagmus was in 13 cases (21.3%);abnormal of gaze test was in 23 cases(37.7%);eye tracking test typeⅠwas in 35 cases(57.4%), typeⅡwas in 13 cases(21.3%), and typeⅢwas in 8 cases(13.1%);bilateral asymmetry of optokinetic nystagmus test was in 33 cases(54.1%); positioning nystagmus was in 2 cases(3.3%); abnormal of cold and hot test was in 6 cases(9.8%).Compared with peripheral vertigo group, the abnormal rates of optokinetic nystagmus test, gaze test, eye tracking test, optokinetic nystagmus test in central vertigo group were significantly increased, and the abnormal rates of positioning nystagmus, cold and hot test in central vertigo group were significantly decreased (all P<0.05). There were 32 cases(37.6%) in peripheral vertigo group with BAEP abnormal, and 31 cases(50.8%) were in central vertigo group with BAED abnormal.Compared with central vertigo group, the latency ofⅠwave andⅠ-Ⅲwave latency delayed in peripheral vertigo group were significantly increased, the latency ofⅤwave andⅠ-Ⅴwave latency delayed were significantly decreased ( all P<0.05 ) .Conclusions There are high sensitivity of optokinetic nystagmus test, gaze test, eye tracking test, optokinetic nystagmus test of ENG to the diagnosis of central vertigo. There are high sensitivity of positioning nystagmus, cold and hot test to the diagnosis of peripheral vertigo.The positive rate of BAEP is relatively lower, but it can provide objective foundation for location of vertigo patients.

The temperature and salinity ranges for growth of twelve strains of marine Bdellovibrio-and-like organisms (BALOs) which affiliated with four different phylogenetic clusters in the family Bacteriovoracaceae and the lytic ability of them to six kinds of common shrimp pathogen vibrios were studied. The morphological characteristics of four representative strains were examined with transmission electron microscope. The results showed that the strains within the same cluster or sub-cluster had identical growth temperature or salinity. The growth temperature ranges of clusters IV, VI, IX and X strains were 20?C～35?C, 15?C～35?C, 15?C～40?C, 10?C～40?C, respectively, and the optimum growth temperature was about 30?C or 35?C. The growth salinity ranges of clusters IV, VI, IX and X strains were 5‰～40‰, 2.5‰～30‰, 5‰～60‰ and 5‰～60‰, and the optimum salinities were about 10‰, 5‰, 20‰ and 20‰, respectively. Three of the six kinds of vibrios tested were lysed by all the BALOs, while the others could only be lysed by some of the BALOs. However, differential lysis to some of the vibrios was also observed among BALOs within the same cluster. The four strains of different clusters all exhibited typical BALOs morphology, hav-ing vibrioid cell with a single polar flagellum.
