Objective Amniotic membrane as the carrier to culture the vascular endothelial cells was investigated in this study in order to explore whether the corneal endothelial cells superseded by the vascular endothelial cells is feasible on the account of directing a kind of the original method to handle the bullous keratopathy.Methods The vascular endothelial cells adhering to the sphagitides lumen of the experimental rabbits were digested and gained by means of the perfusion method with 0.25%tripsin plus 0.02%EDTA.Fresh amniotic membrane without the amniotic epithelial cells was cut into the square tissue about 1.5 cm?1.5 cm and spread evenly in the 24-well culture dish.Primary cultured cells were subcultured on the amniotic membrane.We would not transplant the vascular endothelial cells feeding on the amniotic membrane until cells is full of the whole amniotic membrane surface.One to two months after the operation,the change of corneal diaphaneity was observed.Results About 12 days since the cell transplantation was performed,the corneal transparency alteration between the experimental groups and the control one is different.The corneal buttons in the experimental group show the severe edema and opacity,and the anterior chamber couldn't be seen unclearly.But,10 days after the operation,the corneal oedema which begins to extenuate was judged through the indicatrix that the corneal edema in the experimental group has been recovering slowly,among which the anterior chamber tissue of 7 animals was visible through the implant.The corneal edema in the control groups intensified evidently,even,the part of these appeared the ulcerous necrosis as result of the corneal severely edema.There is the existence of difference between two groups(P

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of scrub typhus disease and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of scrub typhus disease. Methods Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the population and regional distribution of scrub typhus. Seasonal characteristics were analyzed using concentration method and circular distribution method, and incidence trend was analyzed using joinpoint regression model. Results The annual incidence rate of scrub typhus was 0.95/100 000 from 2010 to 2022. The incidence rate of male was 0.77/100 000, lower than that of female 1.12/100 000 (χ²=18.89, P<0.05). The incidence rate of the 60-74 years old group was 3.38/100,000, and the total number of cases in the age group 45-74 years was 416 (74.95%). Occupational distribution was mainly among farmers, with 448 cases (80.72%). The top three regions with the highest number of reported cases (in order: Donghai County, Ganyu District, and Guannan County) reported a total of 416 cases, accounting for 74.95%. Concentration ratio was M=0.9408, and the incidence of scrub typhus disease was strictly seasonal. Circular distribution results showed a^-=-62.3728, S=20.8960. The circular distribution results indicated that the peak day was October 19th, and the peak period was between October 7 to December 19. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) of the incidence rate from 2010 to 2022 was 13.70%, 95% CI (-8.62%~41.48%), and the incidence rate showed an upward trend (t=1.15, P=0.249). Conclusion The incidence of scrub typhus disease is strictly seasonal, and the incidence rate over the years shows an upward trend. It is necessary to strengthen monitoring and take various intervention measures to reduce the risk of scrub typhus disease.
