Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2010;26(4):339-342
Objective To observe the changes of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and its correlation with visual field mean defects(MD)in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Fifteen eyes of 15 PD patients in early stage and 18 eyes of 18 normal controls undertook RNFL examination by Stratus OCT-3. Circular scans (diameter is 3. 46 mm) were taken around the optic nerve head including eight quadrants (superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, temporal-superior, temporal-inferior, nasal-superior and nasalinferior). The RNFL thickness in different quadrants in the two groups was analyzed. The visual field of PD patients was measured by central 30-2 program of Humphery750 visual field analyzer, and the MD was recorded. The correlation between RNFL thickness and MD was analyzed by linear correlation and regression analysis. Results RNFL thicknesses of superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, temporal-superior, temporal-inferior, nasal-superior, nasal-inferior and average RNFL thickness in the control group were (132.7±17.4), (141. 5±15. 3),(83. 2±17. 5), (83.7±22.3) ,(120.8±21.2), (117. 9±24.5) ,(109.6±20. 6),(110.2±27.7), and(109. 9±8. 5) μm respectively, while in the PD group they were (128.1±25.3),(128. 6±13. 2),(68. 7±13. 5),(76. 5±17. 8),(102. 6±23. 7), (103.3±14.1) ,(101.2±20.9),(96.6±15.0),(102.3±11.9) μm . Compared with each other, the differences of RNFL thickness of inferior, temporal, temporal-superior, temporal-inferior and average RNFL thickness were statistically significant (t = 2. 595, 2. 700, 2. 330, 2. 153,2. 131;P = 0. 014, 0. 011, 0. 026, 0. 040, 0. 041). There was a close negative relationship between average RNFL thickness and MD in PD patients (r= -0. 933, P<0. 0001). Conclusions RNFL thickness was significantly thinner in PD patients than that in the normal controls. There was a negative relationship between RNFL thickness and MD in PD patients.

Objective To investigate the change of dendritic cells (DCs) in rats with hepatic carcinoma treated by radiofrequency ablation (RFA),and to explore the mechanisms of anti-tumor immune response to RFA. Methods Forty healthy SD rats with established animal model of hepatic carcinoma were randomly divided into control group (n = 10) ,RFA 7 d group (n = 16) and RFA 14 d group (n = 14). The rats of control group were killed without treatment. The other rats were killed in 7 d and 14 d after RFA treatment respectively. Peripheral blood, liver tissue around the ablation area and spleen were taken out. The OX62,OX6,CD86 of DCs were analyzed with flowcytometry. Results ①OX62 cells accounted for (0.45 ± 0.19)% of mononuelear cells in peripheral blood in control group. The account of OX62 cells increased to (0.78 ± 0.30)% and (1.53 % 0.80)% in RFA 7 d and 14 d groups respectively. There were significant differences between control and RFA 7 d group, control and RFA 14 d group (P<0.05). ②OX62 cells accounted for (18.91 ± 4.58)% of mononuclear cells in liver tissue around the tumor in control group. The account of OX62 cells increased to (24.49 ± 4.59)% in RFA 7 d group (P<0.05). The expression of OX6 on DCs in liver tissue was (15.29 ± 4.59)% and increased to (34.2 ± 11.62)% and (39.18 ± 9.14)% in RFA 7 d and RFA 14 d group respectively (P<0.05). ③OX62 cells accounted for (11.69 ± 4.39)% of mononuclear cells in spleen in control group which increased to (15.10±2.37)% in RFA 14 d group (P<0.05). Conclusions The precursor DCs in peripheral blood and DCs in liver and spleen increased significantly after RFA. The expressions of OX6 on DCs in liver and spleen increased after RFA. RFA can promote the differentiation and maturation of DC. The increased function of antigen presenting may contribute to the anti-tumor responses after RFA.
