Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2015;31(5):417-420
Using optical imaging equipment with different wavelength and computer technology,fundus optical imaging diagnostic techniques can record fundus reflected light,auto fluorescence and emitted light after excitation by external light source in order to observe and analyze the structure and pathological process of retina and choroid.Advances in fundus optical image capture technology (including laser,confocal laser,spontaneous auto-fluorescence,multispectral imaging) and storage and analysis technology,promote this field into a high-definition digital imaging era,with features of rapid,non-invasive,wide-angle three-dimensional multi-level integration,dynamic automatic navigation location tracking and combined application of a variety of optical imaging diagnostic techniques.In order to promote clinical and scientific research of ocular fundus diseases,we need to understand the development trend of optical imaging diagnostic technique,interpret the fundus imaging features appropriately,reasonably chose different inspection techniques,establish standardized diagnosis criteria and continue to expand clinical applications.
2.Research progress in topical application of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs for uveitis-associated cystoid macular edema and choroidal neovascularization
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(7):659-663
Uveitis is a kind of inflammatory disease affected in ocular posterior segment.Uveitis sustains a long duration and causes a significant damage of visual function.It often leads to serious complications,such as cystoid macular edema (CME),cataract,glaucoma,retinal detachment and choroidal neovascularization (CNV).In the pathological process of uveitis,inflammatory factors promote the release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) through a variety of pathways.It has been verified that VEGF level is elevated in vitreous in the patients with uveiticinduced CME.Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs,including ranibizumab and bevacizumab,can improve the visual acuity in most patients with noninfectious uveitic-induced CME and CNV.However,intravitreously repeated injections of anti-VEGF drugs may be required in some patients.Intraocular injection of anti-VEGF drugs is an optional and effective way for those with persist macular edema and not being suitable for the use of corticosteroid or immunosuppressive therapy.However,anti-VEGF drugs may affect the efficacy of corticosteroid.Therefore,more clinical and basic researches are still needed.The status and progresses in the use of anti-VEGF drugs for uveitisinduced CME and CNV were reviewed.

Objective:To evaluate the implementation effects of critical illness insurance of New Cooperative Medical System(NCMS) on the occurrence rate and economic burden of major disease expenditure.Methods:Based on the peasant household data of China Family Panel Studies(CFPS) in 2014.the two-part model was applied to analyze the changes in major disease occurrence and burden after the implement of insurance.Results:NCMS critical illness insurance did not reduce the occurrence of critical disease expenditure,but signally cut down the economic burden of serious illness peasants in central and eastern China.Conclusion:The implementation effect of NCMS critical illness insurance was well in central and eastern China,but was poor in western China;the prevention and health care system of NCMS should be built,while the implementation plans and compensation level of critical illness insurance should be improved in western region.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and dynamic hip screw (DHS) in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients.And provide a reasonable basis for clinical treatment of elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures.Methods The clinical and follow-up records of 58 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures treated by PFNA and DHS were retrospectively reviewed.For times of operation,blood loss in operation,length of incision,incidents of complication and Harris's hip functional standard score were compared and analyzed.Results PFNA group operation time[(59.61 ± 8.27)min],amount of bleeding[(234.51 ± 38.80)ml] were both better than the DHS group of[(83.54 ± 11.12)min and (446.57 ±54.01) ml] respectively.There were significant differences (t =9.80,18.10,all P < 0.05).The satisfactory rate was 92.8% in PFNA group,higher than the DHS group's 83.3 % (x2 =6.18,P < 0.05).There was significant difference between two groups in the incident of complication,DHS group was higher.Conclusion PFNA internal fixation with a minimally invasive,fixed solid and recovery fast,is the better internal fixation in the treatment of elderly intertrochanteric fracture patients.

ObjectiveTo study the occurrence and influence factors of drug-induced injuries of vital organs caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection.MethodsChina Hospital Knowledge Database (CHKD) from 1993-2013 and case reports concerning adverse effects and drug-induced diseases caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection from Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platformwere retrieved. Indicator systemwasestablished and relevant contentsweresummarized and analyzed.Results34 types of traditional Chinese medicine injectionswereincluded and 699 drug-induced diseasesweresummarized, taking up 53.98% of the total adverse effects. Among them, the top three included in the drug-induced diseaseswere acanthopanax injection, safflower injection and Mailuoning injection. The non-conformance between the traditional Chinese medicine injections in the literature and instructions mainly reflects unreasonable solvent selection, large compatibility concentration and usage and dosage beyond those specified in the instructions. ConclusionThe occurrence of drug-induced injuries of vital organs caused by traditional Chinese medicine injectionis relatively high, drug instructions shall be strictly followed in accordance with requirements during clinical application.

The effects of leptin on cytotrophoblast proliferation and invasion activity were investigated. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the placental expression of leptin in first-trimester pregnancy. By using RT-PCR and quantitative real-time PCR, the expression of leptin in cytotrophoblast and the effect of leptin on cytotrophoblast secretion were detected. The potential of cell proliferation, invasiveness and migration was assessed by MTT, Transwell invasion assay and migration assay respectively when the cytotrophoblast was cultured with different concentrations of leptin. The results showed that: (1) Leptin was distributed diffusely around cell membrane, in cytoplasma, and on nuclear membrane of cytotrophoblast; (2) Leptin mRNA was expressed in cytotrophoblast. Ten ng/mL leptin could promote the secretion of cytotrophoblast significantly (P<0.01); (3) After culture with different concentrations of leptin for 24 h or longer, the proliferation of cytotrophoblast was inhibited, while in 24 h leptin could promote cytotrophoblast invasion and migration. Leptin at a concentration of 500 ng/mL could promote cytotrophoblast invasiveness and migration significantly as compared with controls (P<0.05). It was suggested that leptin could inhibit cytotrophoblast proliferation, and promote cytotrophoblast invasion and migration activity.

To study and compare the protective effects of Cordyceps sinensis from different habitats on acute injury of hepatic tissue induced by carbon tetrachloride ( CCl4 ) . Methods:The rat model of acute injury of hepatic tissue induced by CCl4 was established. The biochemical indicators of alanine aminotranferease ( ALT) and aspartate aminotransferease ( AST) in the serum and superoxide dismutase ( SOD) and L-glutathione( GSH) in the liver tissue were detected, and the liver tissue HE staining was used for the histopathology determination. Results:Compared with those in the model group, the levels of AST and ALT in the serum were sig-nificantly reduced, the levels of SOD and GSH in the liver tissue were notably increased, and the necrosis of liver cells was improved in Cordyceps sinensis groups at low, medium and high dose from different habitats (P<0. 05), however, the differences between the two different habitats were not significant (P>0. 05). Conclusion: Cordyceps sinensis from Qinghai and Tibet shows some positive differences in the protective effect on the acute chemical liver injury induced by CCl4 in rats,however, the differences are not remarka-ble.
