?AlM:To study the application of small incision surgery in free treatment for poverty alleviation in patients with cataract.?METHODS: Sixty patients (70 eyes) with high cataract with poverty free treatment from January 2010 to December 2013 in department of ophthalmology in our hospital were selected as study objects. electro cardio gram ( ECG ) and chest X - ray examination were performed. The small incision combined with intraocular lens ( lOL ) implantation operation was undergone. The patients were followed up for 3mo to observe and compare postoperative vision and diopter changes, and analyze the related complications.?RESULTS: The best visual acuity was 0. 6, while the lowest vision for hand 3mo after the operation, a total of 65 eyes ( 93%) vision was better than that before the operation: the eye axis less than 30mm ( 25. 87 ~29. 41mm) had 55 eyes, eye axis more than 30mm (30. 02~31. 47mm) had 10 eyes; and 5 eyes whose visual acuity had no significant changes.?CONCLUSlON: The small incision cataract treatment is simple, better curative effect and high safety, it is more suitable for free treatment in poverty alleviation cataract application.

The incidence of carotid stenosis disease increases with age,and it is one of the major causes of ischemic stroke.In recent years,with the rapid development of endovascular treatment technology,the therapeutic means,including carotid angioplasty and stenting,has been widely carried out both at home and abroad.This article reviews the advances in endovascular treatment of carotid stenosis.

Carotid artery stenting (CAS) for treating carotid artery stenosis is a recent developed technique which is less invasive and complications. This paper reviewed the progress, procedure, and complications of carotid artery stenting.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the baseline serum caveolin-1 (Cav-1) levels and the clinical outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke at day 90 after onset. Methods Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke treated in hospital were enrolled. The Cav-1 levels were measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Functional outcomes were assessed at day 90 after onset using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and mRS 0-2 was defined as good outcome. The demographic and clinical characteristics of the good outcome group and the poor outcome group were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the correlation between the low serum Cav-1 levels and the poor outcome at day 90 after onset. Results A total of 169 patients with acute ischemic stroke were included in the analysis, including 116 males (68. 5% ). Their age ranged from 50 to 83 years (mean, 63. 4 ± 9. 1). The mean serum Cav-1 level was 5. 483 ± 2. 617 ng/ml. Eighty-three-patients (49. 1% ) were in the good outcome group and 86 (50. 9% ) were in the poor outcome group. Univariate analysis showed that the proportions of patients in subcortical infarct (60. 5% vs. 43. 4% ; χ2 = 4. 944, P = 0. 026) and diffusion-weighted imaging-Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, (DWI-ASPECT) ≤7 (58. 1% vs. 40. 9% ; χ2 = 4. 984, P = 0. 026), as well as age (65. 5 ± 8. 9 years vs. 61. 2 ± 10. 7 years; t = 2. 793, P =0. 006), baseline systolic blood pressure level (140. 6 ± 17. 2 mmHg vs. 134. 9 ± 13. 4 mmHg; t = 2. 368, P = 0. 019; 1 mmHg = 0. 133 kPa), and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (4. 8 ± 3. 4 vs. 3. 9 ± 2. 2; t = 2. 211, P = 0. 036) were significantly higher than those of the good outcome group, and the serum Cav-1 level was significantly lower than that of the good outcome group (4. 9 ± 2. 3 ng/ml vs. 6. 1 ± 2. 1 ng/ml; t = 2. 977, P = 0. 003). After adjusting for the related confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the low Cav-1 level was an independent predictor of poor outcome at day 90 in patients with acute ischemic stroke (odd ratio, 1. 157, 95% confidence interval 1. 016-1. 319;P = 0. 028). Conclusion The low serum Cav-1 level is an independent predictor of poor outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Objective To optimize the method and condition s for the extraction process of Fushuning Granules.Methods Different factors and levels were in vestigated by orthogonal design wit h yields of oleanolic acid and tanshi noneⅡ A as the markers.The yields of effective com ponents by percolation and reflux we re compared.Results The extraction ratio by re-flux was higher than that by percolation.The primary factors influencin g extraction ratio by reflux were the pulverization degree of medicinal materials,concentration of alcohol,refluxing times and refluxing perio d.Conclusion The opti-mum extraction process was:refluxing and extracting the pulverized med icinal materials for 3times(1hours each time )with 6-fold 90%alcohol added in the f irst time and then 5-fold in the secon d and the third time.

Objective To acknowledge the effect of T-lymphocyte subset on lymph node micrometastasis in esophageal cancer patients by the study of the correlation between T-lymphocyte subset and micrometastasis.Methods CD3+、CD4+、CD8+and CD4+/CD8+ were examined in esophageal cancer patients under thoracotomy by flow cytometry,and the micrometastasis were examined by immunohistochemistry in lymph node that were diagnosed as negative for metastases by routine histopathological analysis.Two groups were divided by with or without micro-metastasis,T-lymphocyte subset were compared with two groups.Results CD3+,CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+were significantly lower in group with micrometastasis than in group without micrometastasis,CD8+ was significantly higher in group with micrometagtasis than in group without micrometastasis.Conclusion T-lymphocyte subset is closely associmed with micrometastasis and low CD3+,CD4+ and high CD8+ T-lymphocyte is associated with poor cancer-specific survival.
