Accommodation is a phenomenon that crystalline lens change its refractive power when human eyes see the near objects clearly.The article of A brief talk on ‘ A novel concept of accommodation:Human eyes optical system based on hyperfocal distance-micro zoom'.written by Luo Fu-ming introduces a concept of hyperfocal distance from the camera.Based on the characteristic of hyperfocal distance,the author proposes that there are actually three kinds of hyperfocal distances in human eyes:far-hyperfocal distance,near-hyperfocal distance and accommodative hyperfocal distance.It is important to understand this article that whether the ciliary muscles contract to push the zonules in accommodation,and then the zonules are forced to push the lens equator,or the ciliary muscles contract to relax the tensional zonules,then the posterior surface of the lens moves forward.In view of the anatomic structure,the possibility that the ciliary muscles contract to push the zonule and then the slim zonules push the lens equator is less than that the ciliary muscles contract to relax the tensional zonules and then the posterior surface of the lens moves forward in accommodation.In my opinion,the contraction of the ciliary muscles would startup actively in accommodation.So when the eyes transfer from near vision to distance vision,the ciliary muscles (contracting circular muscles) will return to the relaxed normal state immediately.The crystalline lens will immediately recover to its original relatively flatten state by traction of the zonules,rather than passive compression.Because the crystalline lens is not the startup body but a supporting body in accommodation.The accommodation of human eye is very complicated.During the whole process of accommodation,there are not only contraction of ciliary muscles and increase of refractive power in crystalline lens,but also accompanied reaction of miosis and convergence.So it is difficult to explain the complex activity of human eyes using any extreme,mechanical and single mode.

Wavefront-guided laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK)is onekind of the customized surgeries.It not only can increase the postoperative uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA)and best corrected visual acuity(BCVA),but also can lessen the increase of the higher-order aberration.Meanwhile,wavefront-guided LASIK can improve the scotopic vision,decrease the incidence of the glare and halo and enhance contrast sensitivity(CS).This subject focus on the problems as follows:(1)How to understand the affection that wavefront aberration made on the visual quality after LASIK?(2)How to get the wavefront measurements accurately and choose the surgery adaptation?(3)How to ascertain the gold standard to design the wavefront-guided LASIK?(4)How to transform the wavefront measurements into the optimized surgery scheme?(5)What problems should be paid attention to during the surgery?(6)What results the wavefront-guided LASIK should attain?

Background Keratectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is one of the serious complications which affect the vision.The measurement of cornea posterior elevation is an important way helping to find this change.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the change of cornea posterior elevation after LASIK in myopic eyes with astigmatism and affecting factors.Methods A series case-observational study was adopted.One hundred and twenty-seven myopic eyes with astigmatism of 66 patients who received LASIK in 2008 May through 2010 January in Beijing Tongren Hospital were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the change of cornea posterior elevation following the LASIK.The parameters related to cornea posterior elevation were measured and compared before and 3 months,6 months and 1 year after surgery,respectively,with Oculyzer anterial segment analysis system.Results The height values from posterior cornea highest point,the lowest point and central vertex central elevation zone were (12.20±3.39),(-19.02±7.38) and (1.05 ±3.25) μm respectively before LASIK and were (14.38±3.80),(-18.55±7.11),(2.83±4.81)μm in3 months and (13.99±3.38),(-17.57±6.54),(2.45±4.61) μm in 6 months after LASIK.They were (14.40±3.85),(-17.76±6.00),(2.16±5.00) μm in 1 year after surgery.Significant increases were found in the vertex height and central elevation after LASIK compared with before surgery(highest pointq=6.813,5.594,6.875,all at P＜0.001.central vertex:q=4.488,P=0.002;q =3.530,P=0.013 ;q =2.799,P =0.047).However,no significant difference was seen in various time points after LASIK (P＞0.05).A positive correlation was obtained between the height value of the posterior cornea central vertex with the spherical equivalent (SE),maximum cutting depth or cutting proportion 1 year after LASIK (r =0.295,0.297,0.295,all at P=0.001),and there was a negative correlation between it with residual stroma (r=-0.208,P=0.019).The intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with noncontact tonometry (NCT) was (14.24±3.33) mmHg before LASIK,and those of 3 months,6 months and 1 year were (8.42± 1.90),(8.61 ± 1.64) and (8.76± 1.64)mmHg after LASIK,showing a significant lowing in IOP after LASIK in comparison with before LASIK (q =29.851,28.317,26.337,all at P＜0.001).But no significant change was found in the different time points after LASIK (P＞0.05).There was significant difference in the IOP corrected by Ehlers after LASIK (P＞0.05).The IOP before LASIK had positive correlation with the central elevation of posterior cornea surface 1 year after LASIK(r=0.258,P =0.003).Conclusions The cornea posterior elevation increases slightly early stage after LASIK but retains stable level with lapse of time.The refraction diopter before LASIK is the main factor affecting the posterior corneal shape.To reduce the risk of corneal ectasia,more attention should be paid to the reserving of appropriate corneal residual stroma and smallest degree of eccentricity during the ablation procedure.

Some laws about the national key-protected wild medicinal materials, their resources and application status are reviewed. Some problems about the management and application of the national key-protected wild medicinal materials are also analyzed. It is suggested that the special technical requirements should be put forward according to the endangered categories, the state, and requirement of resource. The registration of Chinese patent medicine containing the national key-protected wild medicinal materials should be confined strictly for their sustainable utilization.

As state key-protected wild medicinal materials, their species are collected in State Key-protected Wild Medicinal Species List, State Key-protected Wild Animals List, and State Key-protected Wild Plants List (the first) and Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) Appendix I/II, and there are legal medicinal material standards. Based on the statistical results of the existence frequency in Chinese patent medicine and the literatures of medicinal materials cultivation and breeding situation, the application of key-protected wild medicinal materials is preliminarily estimated, which would provide the reference for their sustainable utilization.

This paper presented the effects of experimental hyperinsulinemia on the main apolipoproteins (At, B) and on tbe process of reverse cholesterol transport in rabbit, which consisted of 1) uptake of cholesterol from peripheral tissue by HDL; 2) cholesterol esterification and 3) cholesterol ester transfer. The results showed that insulin could significantly decrease both serum and lymph Apo A1 levels and inhibit all the three steps of reverse cholesterol transport. The larger the dose of insulin, the greater the effects. Apo B did not seem to be influenced by insulin. It was further demonstrated by a series of statistical analyses that insulin had both direct and indirect inhibitory actions, to different extent, on each of the three main steps of reverse cholesterol transport.

Background The safety,effectiveness and predictability of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) to correct hyperopia are of a widely clinical concern,but the efficacy of LASIK for hyperopic correction is not satisfied in comparison to that of myopia.Objective The aim of this work was to evaluate the safety,effectiveness and predictability of autologous corneal len inlays to correct hyperopia.Methods Autologous corneal len inlays was performed on the left eye of female patient with the diopter of +3.25 DS.This patient was followed-up for 1 month.Cornea compensatory intraocular pressure (IOPcc) and imitation Goldmann IOP (IOPg) were measured,and the corneal thickness and corneal flap were observed using optical coherence topography (OCT).Corneal topography was examined to check the change of corneal curvature.Ocular response analyzer was used to evaluate the shifts of corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF).Uncorrected and best corrected visual acuity and refraction were compared between before and after operation.Written informed consent was obtained from the patient prior to the operation.Results No intraoperative and postoperative complications were found.Uncorrected distance visual acuity improved one line 1 day and 1 month after surgery,and near visual acuity progressed to J2 and the spherical equivalent (SE) was-0.125 D 1 month after surgery.OCT exhibited that the cornea was clear and transparent,and the graft was centered in the corneal stroma capsular bag without rejection 1 month after surgery.The IOPcc was 12.4 mmHg before operation and 11.9 mmHg 1 month after operation,and IOPg was 11.9 mmHg before operation and 10.7 mmHg 1 month after operation in the operated eye.The CH was 9.7 mmHg before operation and 8.9 mmHg 1 month after operation,and CRF was 10.9 mmHg before operation and 10.3 mmHg 1 month after operation,without remarkble change in the indexes mentioned above.Conclusions Autologous corneal implantation can be used to correct hyperopic eye with good safety,effectiveness and predictability.

Abstract：In recent years，the outbreak and prevalence of respiratory infectious diseases in the world seriously endanger human health，among which the respiratory infectious diseases caused by viral infection account for a large proportion. The use of vaccines and common antiviral drugs is an effective way to fight viral infection，but there are also problems such as lag and drug resistance. Monoclonal antibodies against respiratory viral infections provide a new strategy for clinical treatment. This paper reviews the development of monoclonal antibody against respiratory virus and its application in respiratory viral infectious diseases.

Adult stem cells are the multi-potential cells, which exist in fetal and adult tissues. It can reproduce itself (undergo self-renewal) or give rise to more specialized (differentiated) cells. Under certain inducing conditions, adult stem cells can acquire the ability to differentiate into different tissue cells. Multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPC), an alternative name of adult stem cell given by Catherine Verfaillie, existing in bone marrow, can differentiate into cells with characteristics of mesodermal, neuroectodermal, and endodermal lineages in vitro at the single-cell level. MAPC can also contribute to most cell types when injected into the blastocyst. Adult stem cell differentiation implies that different cell lineages are derived from a single initial cell; all differentiated cell types are functional in vitro and in vivo; and engraftment is robust and persistent in the physiological and pathological situations. The possible mechanisms may underlie the differentiation: various tissue-specific stem cells are present in different organs; adult stem cells would be reprogrammed when removed from their usual microenvironment and introduced into a different niche that imparts signals to activate a novel genetic program needed for the new cell fate. And true multi-potential stem cells persist in postnatal life. In the future, multi-potent adult stem cells might then be used for therapies of degenerative or genetic disorders of multiple different organs.
