Objective To compare the changes in optic disc parameters after intraocular pressure (lOP) reduction between primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes, and to determine if there is a difference of lamina eribrosa compliance between POAG and PACG. Design Prospective comparative study. Participants 36 PACG (49 eyes) and 35 POAG (49 eyes). Methods Patients underwent Heidelberg Retina Tomography (HRT Ⅱ) and Humphrey visual field test before IOP reduction. HRT and Humphrey visual field test were repeated one month after the IOP was reduced by laser, anti-glaucomatous medications or surgery treatment. Factors that affected the change in IOP were assessed including age, pretreatment IOP, IOP reduction, initial cup: disc ratio and diagnosis (POAG/PACG). Main outcome measures Changes of HRT parameters including cup area, mean cup depth, cup volume, and rim area after IOP reduction. Results The cup area, mean cup depth and cup volume decreased, and rim area in-creased significantly when the IOP was reduced (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in the changes between PACG and POAG patients (P>0.05). Changes of these four HRT parameters were related to the amount of IOP reduction and the baseline ratio of cup to disc(P>0.05), but not related to age and pre-treatment IOP (P<0.05). Conclusions The cup became smaller and the rim area in-creased after IOP lowering with treatment in both POAG and PACG, and the magnitude of the change was similar in both groups. The lamina cribrosa compliance may not be different between POAG and PACG. (Ophthalmol CHN, 2009, 18: 264-269)

OBJECTIVETo study the effects of 4 different methods for disinfection of simple breathing vesicles and microbial residue.
METHODSThe disinfection tests were divided into 4 groups: G1 group (43 cases) with 500 mg/L chlorine dioxide spray, G2 group (28 cases) with alcohol spray, G3 group (47 cases) with 50 mg/L trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) immersion, and G4 group (46 cases) with 50 mg/L chlorine dioxide solution immersion. After 30 min of disinfection, each group was examined by bacterial culture and colony count. The residual bacteria were identified and typed.
RESULTSThe 4 methods showed significant differences in bacterial colony count (P<0.001). The rate of bacterial residue was 0% in G1 group, 53.6% in G2 group, 27.7% in G3 group, and 21.7% in G4 group, showing significant differences between the 4 groups (P<0.001). The residual bacteria included antibiotic-resistant common opportunistic pathogen such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii and Staphylococcus haemolytic.
CONCLUSIONSDisinfection with 500 mg/L chlorine dioxide spray is the best for simple breathing vesicles. Prolonged immersion in TCCA may lead to the growth of drug-resistant pathogens in the breathing vesicles.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the effect of electro- acupuncture at Zusanli acupoint in regulating perioperative cell immune functions in rats.
METHODS:
Forty-two SD rats were divided into blank control group (=6), model group (=18), and electroacupuncture group (=18). The rats in the latter two groups underwent thigh incision and femoral dissection under anesthesia; the rats in electro-acupuncture group received electro-acupuncture at bilateral Zusanli acupoint for 15 min before anesthesia and 1 h after the surgery. The rats in the model group and electro-acupuncture group were sacrificed at 6 h, 24 h, and 72 h after the operation and blood samples were taken from the ventricle for analyzing CD3, CD4, and CD8 T cell subpopulations and calculation of CD4/CD8 using flow cytometry. ELISA was used to detect the levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and IL-6.
RESULTS:
The CD3 T cell subpopulation was significantly lower in the model group and electro-acupuncture group than in the blank group at 6 h and 24 h after the operation. At 72 h after the operation, CD3 subpopulation levels still remained low in the model group, but recovered the control level in electro-acupuncture group. At each time point of measurement, CD3 level was significantly lower in the model group than in the electro-acupuncture group. CD4 level in the model group was significantly lowered at 6 h and 24 h after the operation, and recovered the control level at 72 h. In the electro-acupuncture group, CD4 level was significantly lowered at 6 h after the operation, but recovered the control level at 24 h. At 24 h and 72 h, the levels of CD4 were significantly lower in the model group than in the electro-acupuncture group. CD8 level underwent no significant changes after the operation in either the model group or electro-acupuncture group. CD4/CD8 was significantly lowered at 24 h and 72 h after the operation in the model group but showed no significant variation in the electro-acupuncture group. Compared with that in the control group, IL-1 level was significantly lowered in both the model group and electroacupuncture group at 6 h, 24 h, and 72 h after the operation, and was significantly lower in the model group than in the electroacupuncture group at these time points. IL-6 level increased significantly in the model group and the electro- acupuncture group at 6 h and 24 h. at 72 h, IL-6 level was obviously lowered in the electro-acupuncture group but remained elevated in the model group.
CONCLUSIONS
Electro-acupuncture alleviates postoperative immune suppression and promotes recovery of the immune function in rats, suggesting a protective effect of electro-acupuncture at Zusanli acupoint on cellular immune function after surgery.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of ulinastatin pretreatment on isoflurane-induced mitochondria-dependent neuronal apoptosis in the hippocampus of rats.
METHODS:
Thirty-six male SD rats were randomly assigned into control group, isoflurane group and ulinastatin group. In the latter two groups, the rats were subjected to acute exposure to 0.75% isoflurane for 6 h and pretreated with 50 000 U/kg of ulinastatin before isoflurane exposure, respectively. After the treatments, apoptosis of the hippocampal neurons was detected using TUNEL assay, and the mitochondrial membrane potential (△ ψm) was measured using JC-1 mitochondrial membrane potential kit; cytochrome C release and caspase-3 activity were examined with Western blotting, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) was detected using the fluorescent probe H2DCFDA.
RESULTS:
Compared with those in the control group, the rats with acute exposure to isoflurane showed markedly increased TUNEL-positive cells in the hippocampus ( < 0.05), which were obviously reduced by ulinastatin pretreatment ( < 0.05). The △ψm of the hippocampal neurons was significantly reduced after isoflurane exposure ( < 0.05), and was partly recovered by ulinastatin pretreatment ( < 0.05). Acute exposure to isoflurane resulted in obviously increased cellular ROS, cytochrome C release and caspase-3 activity in the hippocampal neurons ( < 0.05), and these changes were significantly inhibited by ulinastatin pretreatment ( < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Ulinastatin pretreatment provides neuroprotection against isoflurane-induced apoptosis of the hippocampal neurons in rats possibly by inhibiting mitochondria-dependent apoptosis pathway.

Journal of Southern Medical University 2020;40(9):1313-1318
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the effect of pretreatment of neuroblastoma cells with hot water extract of Korean ginseng on MNNG-induced parthanatos and its mechanism.
METHODS:
Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were pretreated with 1 mg/L hot water extract of Korean ginseng before induction with 250 μmol/L MNNG for 1 h or 4 h. CCK-8 and cell flow cytometry were used to detect cell survival rate. Western blotting was used to detect the changes in poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) expression in the treated cells. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect nuclear distribution of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), and flow cytometry was used to detect the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells.
RESULTS:
Compared with the blank control cells, MNNG-treated SH-SY5Y cells showed significantly decreased survival rate as the concentration of MNNG and the stimulation time increased ( < 0.05). Stimulation with MNNG also resulted in significantly increased expression of PAR protein in the cells ( < 0.05). Pretreatment of the cells with hot water extract of Korean ginseng obviously inhibited MNNG-induced cell death and significantly reduced AIF expression and nucleation in the cells ( < 0.05). MNNG stimulation significantly increased ROS level in the cells, which was decreased significantly by pretreatment of the cells with the extract ( < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Pretreatment with hot water extract of Korean ginseng reduces MNNG-induced parthanatos and ROS production in SH-SY5Y cells.
