Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of intravitreal injection of Lucentis combined with pan retinal photocoagulation and trabeculectomy for neovascular glaucoma(NVG). Methods Seventeen eyes of 15 patients with NVG were treated by 0.5 mg Lucentis intravitreal injection first. Trabeculectomy was performed 7 days later and Pan retinal photocoagulation 2 weeks later. Iris,anterior chamber angle neovascularization,intraocu?lar pressure ,and visual acuity were observed in the following 6 months. Results Iris and anterior chamber angle neovascularization were completely regressed 7 days after the injection in 17 eyes. Six months after photocoagulation, 6 eyes had different degrees of improvement in visual acuity,10 eyes no change in visual acuity and 1 eye decreased from anterior index to immediate manual. There was significant difference in pre?treatment IOP and postoperative IOP( t = 12.75 ,10.26 ,9.73 ,10.77 ,P < 0.01 ). No serious complications were observed after intravitreal injec?tion and trabeculectomy. Conclusions Intravitreal injection of Lucentis could significantly accelerate the regres?sion of iris and anterior chamber angle neovascularization ,which could improve the successful rate of trabeculecto?my and pan retinal photocoagulation. Intravitreal injection of Lucentis combined with trabeculectomy and panretinal photocoagulation is safe and effective for NVG.

Objective To investigate the expression of p73 protein in normal skins and lesions of benign and malignant epidermal tumors. Methods By immunohistochemical staining, the expression of p73, p53 and Ki67 was examined in 19 cases of seborrheic keratosis (SK), 16 basal cell carcinoma (BCC), 11 Bowen's disease (BD), 5 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC),as well as in 10 normal skin controls. Results In normal skin, p73 protein was found to distribute in the basal cells of the epidermis, basal cells in the outer root sheath of the hair follicles, and the germinative cells in the sebaceous glands. p73 was expressed strongly in the basal cell-like cells of BCC and SK lesions, and in the atypical cells of BD lesions, but weakly or even negatively in the tumor cells of SCC lesions and the squamous cell-like cells of SK lesions. There was significant difference in the expression of p73 among the SK, BD, BCC and SCC lesions (H=12.71 ,P

Objective To speculate the precipitating factors,clinical features and histopathological changes in patients with granuloma annulare (GA).Methods A study was performed in 53 patients with GA . Results The incidence of female was more prevalent than male in our study. The exposure of sunlight was found more relatedly in GGA than LGA.The onset age of GGA was inclined to be elder and GGA seemed to last longer.The histopathological study showed that palisading granuloma pattern accounted for 71.7% in all patients,and scattered histiocytic infiltration accounted for 28.3%.Such as cryotherapy,topical steroids were used for LGA and systemic administration was an alternative to GGA. Conclusions Ultraviolet may be associated with the development of generalized GA. The most common pattern is the palisading granuloma though the histopathological changes were variable.Topical therapy is effective in LGA,while the systemic therapy is mainly used for GGA.

Purpose:To study the histogenesis,the differential diagnosis and the prognosis of melanotic schwannoma.Methods:The age of the patients was 4,17,28 years old, respectively.Three cases of melanotic schwannoma were examined using histologic (HE), immunohistochemical (ABC method) and electron microscopic techniques. Results: The diameter of tumor was 2,4,8, respectively. Histological examination showed pigmented spindle cells arranged in interlacing fascicles and occasional nuclear palisading. The pigmented polygonal cells were loosely arranged in sheets. After bleaching, the nuclei were oval and some showed slight pleomoprohism with prominent nucleoli, and nuclear mitoses were found. There was local invasion in two cases. Immunohistochemical stains for S 100 protein, HMB45, Vim, Leu 7, NSE were positive. Ultrastructrual examinations showed a lot of melanosomes in all stages of development and seldom basal lamina. Conclusions:①Melanotic schwannoma usually occurs in young adults. Most of the tumors are benign or only potentially malignant. Malignant MS is rare,and require follow up. ②MS originate from neural crest with a proliferation of the bipotential cell.

A 27-year-old man presented with a 3-year history of persistent asymptomatic papules on the left chest and axirlary fossa. Multiple skin biopsies were performed and histopathology revealed mild acanthosis, extension of the dermal papilla, lichenoid lymphoid infiltrates in upper dermis. Some lymphoid cells migrated into the epidermis and formed Pautrier's microabscesses. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the infiltrating cells were positive for LCA, CD45RO, CD3, CD4 and CD8 (scattered), but negative for CD68 or CD30. Cutaneous laser confocal microscopy showed the shadow of scattered, oval or round, slightly refractive cells measuring 4-8 pm in diameter. A diagnosis of papular mycosis fungoides was made. The papules were softened with the lightening of lesional color after treatment with narrow-band ultraviolet B, topical fluticasone propionate cream and isotretinoin gel.

Background and objective The chemotherapy of advanced non-small cell lung cancer is in a Bottleneck. The target therapy of Anti-angiogenesis gradually shows an advantage in the therapy of patients with advanced NSCLC. To in-vestigate the short-term efficacy, safety and the quality of life of the target therapy of rh-Endostin combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods Sixty-two advanced NSCLC patients were randomly divided into either the trial group with chemotherapy plus rh-Endostin or control group with chemotherapy alone. The efficacy and toxicity were evaluated after 2 cycles according to RECIST criteria. Results The trial groups efficiency rate was 46.8796, while the control group was 26.6696, there was no significant differences of two groups (χ2=1.912, P=0.166). The clinical benefit rate was 81.259% in the trial group and 53.339% in control group. There was significant difference of the clinical benefit rate between the trial group and the control group (χ2=4.3185, P=0.0377). The score of quality of life in the trial group was significantly higher than that the control group after the treatment (χ2= 11.233, P=0.0008). There was no significant difference of incidence of toxicities between the trial group and the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion Rh-Endostin combined with chemotherapy was effective, reasonable, safe and well tolerated for advanced NSCLC.

Objective:To evaluate the role of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α)-glycolytic pathway in propofol-induced attenuation of brain injury in acute sleep-deprived aged rats.Methods:Forty-eight male SPF-grade healthy Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 20-22 weeks, weighing 500-600 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: control group (Con group), sleep deprivation group (SD group), sleep deprivation + propofol group (SP group), and sleep deprivation + propofol + DMOG group (SPD group). The sleep deprivation model was developed using a sleep deprivation apparatus in rats. At 20 and 3 h before sleep deprivation, 1% propofol at a dose of 0.04 mg/g was intraperitoneally injected in SP group, and 1% propofol at a dose of 0.04 mg/g and HIF-1α activator DMOG at a dose of 0.05 mg/g were intraperitoneally injected in SPD group. Cognitive function was assessed by fear conditioning test and novel object recognition test. After the behavioral testing, the blood and brain tissue samples were collected for determination of blood-brain barrier permeability (by Evans blue staining), apoptosis rate (by TUNEL staining), serum levels of neurofilament light chain protein (NfL) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE), contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS), interleukin-6 (IL-6), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), lactate and pyruvate (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and expression of HIF-1α, pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), hexokinase 2 (HK2), ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (IBA1), and cleaved caspase-3 (by Western blot) and for microscopic examination of pathological changes of the hippocampal tissues. The lactate/pyruvate ratio was calculated. Results:Compared to Con group, the percentage of freezing time and recognition index were significantly decreased, serum concentrations of NSE and NfL, EB content in brain tissues, contents of ROS, IL-6 and iNOS in hippocampal tissues, and lactate/pyruvate ratio were increased, the expression of HIF-1α, PKM2, HK2, IBA1 and cleaved caspase-3 was up-regulated, the apoptosis rate was increased ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage to nerve cells in the hippocampus was found in SD group and SPD group. Compared to SD group, the percentage of freezing time and recognition index were significantly increased, serum concentrations of NSE and NfL, EB content in brain tissues, contents of ROS, IL-6 and iNOS in hippocampal tissues, and lactate/pyruvate ratio were decreased, the expression of HIF-1α, PKM2, HK2, IBA1 and cleaved caspase-3 was down-regulated, the apoptosis rate was decreased ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage to nerve cells in the hippocampus was significantly attenuated in SP group. Compared to SP group, the percentage of freezing time and recognition index were significantly decreased, the serum concentrations of NSE and NfL, EB content in brain tissues, contents of ROS, IL-6 and iNOS in hippocampal tissues, and lactate/pyruvate ratio were increased, the expression of HIF-1α, PKM2, HK2, IBA1 and cleaved caspase-3 was up-regulated, the apoptosis rate was increased ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage to nerve cells in the hippocampus was aggravated in SPD group. Conclusions:Propofol can attenuate acute sleep deprivation-induced brain injury in aged rats, and the mechanism may be related to inhibition of the HIF-1α-glycolytic pathway and reduction of neuroinflammatory responses.

Objective:To compare demographic characteristics,clinical characteristics,therapeutic characteris-tics and physiological indicators of patients with bipolar Ⅰ disorder and bipolar Ⅱ disorder.Methods:A total of 381 patients with bipolar disorder(BD)diagnosed by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 th Edi-tion(DSM-5)were selected,including 302 patients with BD-Ⅰ(79.27％),74 patients with BD-Ⅱ(19.42％)and 5 patients with other specific and related disorders(1.31％).Demographic and clinical characteristics were collected with self-designed clinical information questionnaire.Multivariate logistic regression and multivariate linear regres-sion analysis were used for analysis.Results:Compared with patients with BD-Ⅱ,patients with BD-Ⅰ had more risk to have psychotic features(OR=5.75,95％CI:2.82-11.76),longer disease duration,and more repeated transcra-nial magnetic therapy(OR=3.09,95％CI:1.02-9.35),higher uric acid,total cholesterol and high-density lipo-protein.BD-Ⅰ in Han nationality was more common(OR=11.50,95％CI:1.76-75.30),and had lower education level(OR=10.22,95％CI:1.16-89.77),and less family history of psychosis(OR=2.34,95％CI:1.01-5.42).Conclusion:There are significant differences between BD-Ⅰ and BD-Ⅱ in demographic and clinical charac-teristics,treatment status,and physiological indicators,which could provide clues for exploring the pathogenesis of bipolar disorder.
