?AIM:To investigate the causes and characteristics of retinal detachment after vitrectomy.?METHODS: Retrospective analysis of patients in our hospital in recent 4a who underwent primary, standard, three -port pars plana vitrectomy ( PPV ) . Retinal detachment occurred in 24 eyes ( 23 cases ) , 24-67 years old, average 49.0±12.0 years old.There were male in 17 cases, female in 6 cases, 6 right eyes, 18 left eyes.?RESULTS:Eighteen (75%) eyes without any symptoms were found during a routine check, 6 eyes ( 25%) with decreased visual acuity or in front of shadow.It took 1-223d from PPV to retinal detachment, average 40.7 ± 54.2d, of which retinal detachment occurred in 10 (42%) eyes within 1wk, 14 (58%) eyes within 1mo.The direct cause of retinal detachment was new retinal break ( a total of 27 holes ) in 19 eyes, proliferative vitreoretinopathy ( PVR) in 4 eyes, 1 eyes with primary hole not closed.All retinal detachment were ultimately completely reset.?CONCLUSION: The occurrence of new retinal breaks is the main cause of retinal detachment after vitrectomy, attention should be paid to the early postoperative peripheral retinal examination;after a timely surgery, the retina can be reset.

The effects of magnolol (Mag) on hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia, hepatic oxidative stress and cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) activity of diabetic rats induced by high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) were studied. After oral administration of Mag (25, 50 and 100 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) for continuous 10 weeks, the blood glucose and lipids (TC, TG and LDL-C) levels, as well as the hepatic CYP2E1 activity and MDA content of diabetic rats, decreased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), whereas the oral glucose tolerance and hepatic antioxidant enzymatic activities (CAT and GSH-Px) of diabetic rats, increased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The results indicated that Mag was effective against the hepatic oxidative damage, hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia of diabetic rats induced by HFD and STZ, and the inhibition of Mag on hepatic CYP2E1 activity could be an important mechanism of Mag against hepatic insulin resistance and oxidative damage.

BACKGROUND:Healthy human umbilical cord jel y is a mucous connective tissue without vessels and has been used in eye plastic operation because of its elasticity and toughness. It contains lysozyme, placental globulin, hyaluronic acid enzyme, AMP antibody and complement, and also contains a lot of mesenchymal stem cells, so it is not prone to infection and rejection. OBJECTIVE:To observe the histocompatibility and histopathological changes of human umbilical cord jel y as a tarsal substitute transplanted for eyelid reconstruction in guinea pigs. METHODS:The mucous connective tissue of healthy neonate umbilical cord jel y was made into tissue blocks at even thickness. Models of tarsal defects were established in guinea pigs, and then the mucous connective tissue of healthy neonate umbilical cord jel y was implanted. Samples of implanted materials were col ected for histological examination at 1, 2, 3 weeks postoperation under light microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no obvious rejection, infection and eyelid deformation observed, the corneas of al the animals were clear, corneal epithelial shedding did not occur, and the eyelid could move normal y. One week after implantation, there was no infection and rejection on the conjunctiva and the incision of the eyelid, the eyelid could move normal y, and partial inflammatory cells were observed between the human umbilical cord jel y and the muscle of the eyelid with microscopy. Two weeks after implantation, there was no infection and rejection on the conjunctiva and the incision of the eyelid, the cornea was clear, the eyelid and eye could move normal y, and no symblepharon occurred;umbilical cord jel y showed the tendency of absorption, and the inflammatory cells were reduced at 2 weeks after implantation. Three weeks after implantation, the incision of the conjunctiva healed wel , the cornea was clear;there was no difference in the eyelid form and movement between the two eyes;the umbilical cord jel y was absorbed partial y, normal fibrous tissues formed and there were no inflammatory cells. With low immunogenicity, human umbilical cord jel y can guide the growth of new col agen and serve as an ideal tarsal substitute.

Objective To explore the protective role of the receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor in chondrocyte in vitro.MethodsReverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), immunocytochemistry (ICC) and toluidine blue staining were used to understand the changes of phenotype expression of collagenⅠ, Ⅱ and proteoglycan in chondrocyte in vitro. Results Genistein of 20 μg/mL and 25 μg/mL concentrations decreased the expression of collagen Ⅰ and increased the expression of collagen Ⅱ and proteoglycan (P< 0. 05). Conclusions This study showes that genistein can effectively inhibit the expression of collagen Ⅰ above certain concentration, and it can improve the expression of collagen Ⅱ and increase the synthesis of proteoglycan.

ObjectivesTo present the current condition of non-invasive ventilation in newborns in the last ifve years in China, to describe the probable research trends of this ifeld, and to provide the possible research directions in future.Methods Using co-word analysis, the keywords “neonate” and “non-invasive ventilation” were searched in the CNKI database. The search results included 457 articles. Then the relation matrix was built by Excel 2010. Finally the visualized network was drawn by Ucinet 6.3.ResultsNasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) is primarily for the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) in China. Meanwhile, nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nIPPV) and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) are gradually applied in clinic. The application scope of non-invasive ventilation is expanding. Besides the neonatologists, nurses are also paying close attention to non-invasive ventilation.ConclusionsThe visualized network, successfully built by Netdraw, relfects the hot topics and current condition in this ifeld.

AlM: To explore the clinical therapeutic effect of the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment of idiopathic panuveitis.
METHODS: Totally 47 patients ( 69 eyes ) with the idiopathic panuveitis were included in this study, which were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. Twenty-four cases (33 eyes) with the method of Western medicine-glucocorticoid and mydriatic were in control group, while 23 cases (36 eyes) with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine were in treatment group. Those patients were followed up 12-36mo, the vision before and after treatment, the therapeutic effects, the complications and the side effects of glucocorticoid were recorded.
RESULTS: Both of two groups' vision after treatment were improved, but the vision of treatment group was better than the control group. The effective rate and the cure rate of the treatment group were increased significantly. Of all of the complications, the incidence rate of complicated cataract and secondary glaucoma of the treatment group were reduced significantly. Of all of the side effects of glucocorticoid, the central excitation, hypertension and central obesity of the treatment group were reduced significantly (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSlON: Dialectical therapy of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine has better therapeutic effect than simple Western medicine treatment of idiopathic panuveitis, and could better reduce the side effect of glucocorticoid long-term use. lt is worthy applying in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the value of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) for assessing the plaque stability as well as the risk factors for unstable plaque and severe stenosis in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis.Methods The patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis were enrolled.HR-MRI was use to evaluate carotid plaque compositions and identify the stability of plaques.The carotid plaques from the patients underwent carotid endarterectomy were collected for pathological examination.The consistency of the preoperative HR-MRI and the postoperative pathological findings were compared.The clinical data of all patients were collected and the risk factors for the stability of carotid plaques and the severity of vascular stenosis were analyzed.Resulls A total of 219 patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (stenosis ＞ 50％) who underwent HR-MRI were enrolled.Among them,102 patients (46.6％) had stable plaques and 117 (53.4％) had unstable plaques;118 (53.9％) had moderate stenosis and 101 (46.1％) had severe stenosis.Thirty-fiwe patients received carotid endarterectomy,HR-MRI showed that the plaque in 19 (54.3％) of them were instable,and pathological examination showed that the plaque in 20 (57.1％) cases were instable,and both were highly consistent (κ =0.942,P ＜ 0.001).The proportions of male (P =0.007),hyperlipidemia (P =0.013),smoking (P ＜0.001),as well as the levels of total cholesterol (P =0.001),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P ＜0.01),and fasting blood glucose (P =0.001) in the unstable plaque group were significantly higher than those in stable plaque group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male (odds ratio [OR] 2.33,95％ confidence interval [CI] 1.08-5.04;P=0.032),smoking (OR 3.45,95％ CI 1.67-7.14;P=0.001),and higher fasting blood glucose level (OR 1.26,95％ CI 1.07-1.48;P =0.006) were the independent risk factors for unstabke plaque.All the data did not show any significant difference between the moderate stenosis group and the severe stenosis group.Conclusions HR-MRI accurately assessed the plaque stability in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis.Sex,smoking,and fasting blood glucose level were the independent risk factors for carotid artery unstable plaque.
