Objective The double-cavity balloon oppressor surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) has been utilized in past decades. But we have not yet a domestic device available. Present study was to investigate the effectiveness of double-cavity balloon oppressor using a domestic device in primary RRD surgery. Methods This clinical trial was a prospective study. Total 74 cases of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD) (74 eyes) were enrolled. Double-cavity balloon oppressor surgery was performed in 40 eyes of 40 patients, and conventional segmental scleral buckling surgery was used in 34 eyes of 34 patients. The mean operative time, retinal attachment rate, vision and astigmatism change after operation between two different operative fashions were compared. The intra- and post-operative complication was discussed. The mean follow-up period was 4. 5 months. Written informed consent was obtained from all the patients before clinical trial. Results The retinal anatomic attachment rate was 92. 5% (37/40) in balloon oppressor surgery group and 91. 1% (31/34) in conventional surgery group, and there were no significant difference in retinal attachment rate among PVR grade A, B and C1 (P >0. 05) . The postoperative best corrected visual acuity (operative 3 months) was improved in 29 eyes(72. 5%) after balloon oppressor surgery and 25 eyes(73. 5%) after conventional surgery, showing insignificant difference between them (P > 0. 05) . The mean surgical time was about (27. 00 ±8. 60) minutes in balloon oppressor surgery group and (47. 00 ± 14. 30) minutes in conventional surgery group(t =7. 41, P <0. 01) . Cylinder diopter change after surgery was insignificantly different between before and after operation in balloon oppressor surgery group (0. 52 ± 0. 30 D vs 0. 81 ± 0. 41 D, P > 0. 05), however, there was a significant difference in cylinder diopter change between preoperation and postoperation (0. 65 ± 0. 32 D vs 1. 83 ± 0. 69 D, P < 0. 05) . Conclusion Double-cavity balloon oppressor surgery for RRD is accurate and reliable. This operation procedure offer an economic, efficient and convenient choice for treatment of RRD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the incidence and risk factors for hypertension among taxi drivers working different shifts.
METHODSUsing the cluster sampling method, 415 day-shift and 304 night-shift taxi drivers in Jinan, China were selected and investigated. The influencing factors for hypertension were analyzed.
RESULTSThe incidence of hypertension in all taxi drivers was 33.2%. The incidence of hypertension in night-shift drivers was significantly higher than that in day-shift drivers (37.8% vs 29.9%, P<0.05). According to multivariate analysis, the incidence of hypertension in day-shift drivers was closely related to body mass index (BMI), working years, working hours, sleep duration, rest days, diet quality, water intake, and smoking, while the incidence of hypertension in night-shift drivers was closely related to BMI, working years, working hours, part-time job, sleep duration, rest days, and drinking.
CONCLUSIONBMI, working years, and working hours are the common risk factors for hypertension in day-shift and night-shift drivers. Sleep duration and rest days are the common protective factors. The risk factors for hypertension in taxi drivers vary with different shifts.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of acupuncture for depression and to discuss its impact on the content of 5-HT in patients with depression.
METHODSEighty patients with depression were randomly divided into an acupuncture group and a western medication group,40 cases in each one. Acupuncture was applied in the acupuncture group,Siman(KI 14),Shenshu(BL 23),Guanyuan(CV 4),Dazhui(GV 14),Yinlingquan(SP 9), Zusanli(ST 36),Taichong(LR 3),Yanglingquan(GB 34) and Jingming(BL 1) were selected, the intensive moxibustion was applied at G(uanyuan(CV 4). Fluoxetine was treated with oral administration in the western medication group. The treatments of six weeks were required in each group. The Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD) was applied to evaluate efficacy and serum 5-HT was detected before and after treatment in the two groups.
RESULTSAfter treatment,the scores of HAMD were decreased obviously in the two groups compared with those before treatment (scores in the acupuncture group: 24. 48 ± 0. 28 vs 8. 95 ± 2. 24; scores in the western medication group: 24. 14±0. 24 vs 10. 29±1. 30),and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0. 05). Between the two groups,the scores of HAMD in the acupuncture group at the end of the lst,2nd,4th,6th weeks were superior to those in the western medication group (all P<0. 05). The content of serum 5-HT after treatment was increased markedly compared with that before treatment [the content in the acupuncture group: (26. 21 2. 36)pg/mL vs (52. 07 ± 0. 56)pg/mL, the content in the western medication group:(26. 26±2. 31)pg/mL vs (51. 70±0. 52)pg/ mL, both P<0. 05]. But there was no statistic significance between the two groups(P >0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe efficacy of acupuncture for depression is superior to that of western medication with fluoxetine.

Objective To explore whether 5 to -7-day of folic acid supplementation prior to pemetrexed therapy is needed. Methods We retrospectively evaluate the outcomes of non-small cell lung cancer patients received less than the advised folic acid premedication. Seventy patients with Ⅲ-Ⅳ NSCLC were randomly divided into two groups: patients who initiated vitamin supplementation on 7 days before the first dose of pemetrexed (group A) and patients who initiated vitamin supplementation on the day of the first dose of pemetrexed (group B). Results In group A and group B, CR 0 and 0, PR 10 and 8, the response rates of 28.6% and 22.9% were observed, respectively. There was no statistically significant differences between these two groups. No significant differences were observed in the incidence of hematologic and non-hematologic toxicities. Conclusions The initiation of pemetrexed-based chemotherapy does not need to accommodate a vitamin supplementation schedule.
