To evaluate the visual performance of aspheric multifocal intraocular lens (SN6AD1+3. 0D) implanta-tion in age-related cataract surgery. Forty-eight patients (60 eyes) with age-related cataract were divided into two groups, 28 patients(30 eyes)in the multifocal group (implanted with SN6AD1+3. 0D multifocal intraocular lens), and 20 patients(30 eyes)in the monofocal group (implanted with SN60WF monofocal intraocular lens). The uncor-rected and the best corrected distance,intermediate and near visual acuity and the amplitude of pseudoaccommoda-tion were measured after surgery,and the subjective visual performance was evaluated by the questionnaire. The un-corrected intermediate and near visual acuity were statistically better in the multifocal group than the monofocal group. The amplitude of pseudoaccommodation of multifocal and monofocal group was (2. 65 ± 0. 48) D and (0. 38 ± 0. 15)D. The spectacle independent rates of multifocal and monofocal group were 86% and 13% respectively.

Objective]To discuss the effect of sciatic nerve injury on the expressions of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and interleukin-10(IL-10)in anterior cingulate cortex(ACC),and further to explain their roles resided in the development of neuropathic pain.[Method]With use of the methods of behavioral test,western blot and immunohistochemistry, we examine the effects of spared sciatic nerve injury(SNI)on the expressions of TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-10 in ACC,and observe the effect of the neutralizing antibody of TNF-α,IL-1β on the rat mechanical allodynia.[Result]In present experiment ,SNI increased the protein levels of TNF-α,IL-10,but not IL-1β in ACC. Increased TNF-α-IR and IL-10-IR in ACC is located in neurons ,but not astrocytes and microglia at 7 d following L5-VRT. Pre-treatment with anti-TNFα antibody but not anti-IL-1βantibody into ACC significantly increased the rat paw withdrawal threshold to von Frey hairs.[Conclusion]These data suggested that the increased TNF-αin ACC neurons might be responsible for the development of neuropathic pain.

Objective To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the predictive abilities of CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc in stroke and thromboembolism risk stratification of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Methods We searched PubMed and EMBASE for Eng-lish-language literature on comparisons of the diagnostic performance between CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc in predicting stroke, or sys-temic embolism, in AF. We then assessed the quality of the included studies and pooled the C-statistics and 95%confidence intervals (95%CI). Results Eight studies were included. It was unsuitable to perform a direct meta-analysis because of high heterogeneity. When analyzed as a continuous variable, the C-statistic ranged from 0.60 to 0.80 (median 0.683) for CHADS2 and 0.64-0.79 (median 0.673) for CHA2DS2-VASc. When analyzed as a continuous variable in anticoagulation patients, the subgroup analysis showed that the pooled C-statistic (95%CI) was 0.660 (0.655-0.665) for CHADS2 and 0.667 (0.651-0.683) for CHA2DS2-VASc (no significant difference). For non-anticoagulation patients, the pooled C-statistic (95%CI) was 0.685 (0.666-0.705) for CHADS2 and 0.675 (0.656-0.694) for CHA2DS2-VASc (no significant differ-ence). The average ratio of endpoint events in the low-risk group of CHA2DS2-VASc was less than CHADS2 (0.41%vs. 0.94%, P<0.05). The average proportion of the moderate-risk group of CHA2DS2-VASc was lower than CHADS2 (11.12%vs. 30.75%, P<0.05). Conclu-sions The C-statistic suggests a similar clinical utility of the CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores in predicting stroke and thromboem-bolism, but CHA2DS2-VASc has the important advantage of identifying extremely low-risk patients with atrial fibrillation, as well as classi-fying a lower proportion of patients as moderate risk.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and safety of meglumine adenosine cyclophosphate in the treatment of acute myocardium infarction. METHODS:A total of 80 patients with acute myocardium infarction in our hospital during May 2015-Jan. 2016 were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,40 cases in each group. Control group was given conventional treatment. Observation group was additionally given Meglumine adenosine cyclo-phosphate injection 120 mg added into 5% Glucose injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd,on the basis of control group. Both groups re-ceived treatment for 7 d. Clinical efficacies as well as the levels of serum hs-CRP and NT-proBNP before and after treatment were observed in 2 groups,and the occurrence of ADR was compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:Total response rate of observation group(92.50%)was significantly higher than that of control group(75.00%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treat-ment,there was no statistical significance in the serum levels of hs-CRP or NT-proBNP between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treat-ment,the serum levels of hs-CRP and NT-proBNP in 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the observation group was signifi-cantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Meglumine adenosine cyclophosphate shows significant therapeutic efficacy for acute myocardium infarction,reduces serum levels of hs-CRP and NT-proBNP significantly with good safety.
