Objective To observe the incidence of oculocardiac reflex in cataract surgery and investigate the corresponding measures.Methods One hundred cataract patients with surgical treatment were enrolled in this study,observed the occurrence of oculocardiac reflex in different surgical procedures and taked active preventive measures and first aid.Results The incidence of oculocardiac reflex was 20％(20/100),which the intraoperative effective measures can significantly reduce the incidence of oculocardiac reflex.Conclusion In cataract surgery,the incidence of oculocardiac reflex is not high,but the anesthesiologist must be prepared to work effectively with doctors completed surgery to avoid adverse consequences resulting from oculocardiac reflex.

OBJECTIVETo clarify the role of endothelial cells (ECs) injury induced by anti-endothelial cell antibody (AECA) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

METHODSSerum immunoglobulin (IgG) from allo-HSCT recipients were purified and incubated with human umbilical vein vascular endothelium (HUVEC) in vitro, then the functional changes and cell apoptosis were tested.

RESULTSAfter incubation with AECA positive IgG, soluble adhesion molecules significantly elevated in culture supernatant. When concentration of IgG was 160, 320, and 640 μg/ml, concentrations of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in supernatant were statistically higher in AECA positive groups [(117.10 ± 12.82) vs (78.17 ± 4.90) pg/ml, (151.30 ± 15.35) vs (89.46 ± 6.02) pg/ml, (239.00 ± 32.53) vs (127.80 ± 13.86) pg/ml, P<0.01)]. When concentration of IgG was 40, 80, 160, 320, and 640 μg/ml, concentrations of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 in supernatant were also statistically higher in AECA positive groups [(38.51 ± 3.76) vs (24.78 ± 2.59) pg/ml, (61.34 ± 6.99) vs (38.20 ± 3.17) pg/ml, (135.60 ± 24.46) vs (63.73 ± 5.08) pg/ml, (221.30 ± 29.40) vs (112.80 ± 8.91) pg/ml, (420.90 ± 31.70) vs (224.40 ± 20.79) pg/ml, P<0.01]. Clotting activity factors also elevated in culture supernatant after incubation with AECA positive IgG. When concentration of IgG was 80, 160, 320, and 640 μg/ml, concentrations of von Willebrand factor were statistically higher in AECA positive groups [(19.51 ± 0.72) vs (17.17 ± 0.60) ng/ml, P=0.0193; (22.97 ± 1.18) vs (18.27 ± 0.61) ng/ml, (26.40 ± 1.54) vs (19.53 ± 0.70) ng/ml, (34.35 ± 1.60) vs (23.81 ± 0.92) ng/ml, P<0.01]. When concentration of IgG was 320 and 640 μg/ml, concentrations of thrombomodulin were statistically higher in AECA positive groups [(57.50 ± 4.50) vs (40.31 ± 4.39) pg/ml, P=0.0132; (59.18 ± 4.11) vs (38.84 ± 5.16) pg/ml, P<0.01]. However, inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and ANG2) were not statistically different in AECA positive and negative groups (P>0.05). Moreover, IgG from AECA positive samples did not change the proliferation or cell apoptosis.

CONCLUSIONAECA from allo-HSCT recipients dysregulates ECs' function in vitro, but do not induce apoptosis, which is valuable in the pathophysiology of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and other complications after allo-HSCT.
