1.Recent progress on study of the selection of intraocular lens in the bilateral sequential cataract surgery
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(6):560-562
Bilateral sequential cataract surgery is very common in clinical,but the ophthalmologists often ignore how to choose the timing of operation and whether the first eye can be used to improve the intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation for the second one.Despite the refinements in IOL selection with the use of third-generation IOL formulas,5% of eyes still result in a postoperative refractive surprise of ± 1.00 D or more.This paper introduced the methods of using refraction error of the first eye to improve the IOL power calculation for the second eye,and the refractive error of the second eye can be improved by modifying the IOL power to correct up to 50% of the error from the first eye in details.Because of the variation of the postoperative refractive surprise within a month,the interval of three to four weeks between two eyes cataract surgery is highly recommended.These conclusions may provide the advantageous guidance for us in the selection of IOL in bilateral cataract surgery.
2. Pharmacokinetics of fondaparinux sodium in Chinese patients after major thoracic surgery
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2012;47(24):2022-2025
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium in Chinese patients after thoracic surgery. METHODS: Thirteen patients were enrolled in the study and were given a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium via a subcutaneous injection. Plasma concentrations of fondaparinux sodium were measured throughout a 24 h period. The pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using WinNonlin software. RESULTS: The following pharmacokinetic parameters were derived; t1/2(7.92 ± 3.13) (4.21-15.89) h, tmax(2.52 ± 0.93) (1.38-4) h, p-1 (0.73 ± 0.18) (0.45-1.02) mg · L-1, AUClast(6. 56 ± 2.19) (3.07-9. 75)mg · h · L-1, Vz/F(3.54 ± 1.00) (2.24-5.73) L, CL/F(0.34 ± 0.14) (0.16-0.63) L · h-1, and MRTlast (6.98 ± 2.1) h. The pearson correlation coefficient, r was 0.7283(P = 0.005) between the serum creatinine(Scr) and mean residence time(MRTlast) of fondaparinux. CONCLUSION: The disposition of fondaparinux is highly variable in patients. A statistical significant correlation between Scr and MRTlast of fondaparinux was observed. Fondaparinux sodium administered by intravenous injection is well tolerated in patients.

4.Cluster ensemble algorithm based on dual neural gas applied to cancer gene expression profiles.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2015;32(1):93-98
The microarray technology used in biological and medical research provides a new idea for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. To find different types of cancer and to classify the cancer samples accurately, we propose a new cluster ensemble framework Dual Neural Gas Cluster Ensemble (DNGCE), which is based on neural gas algorithm, to discover the underlying structure of noisy cancer gene expression profiles. This framework DNGCE applies the neural gas algorithm to perform clustering not only on the sample dimension, but also on the attribute dimension. It also adopts the normalized cut algorithm to partition off the consensus matrix constructed from multiple clustering solutions. We obtained the final accurate results. Experiments on cancer gene expression profiles illustrated that the proposed approach could achieve good performance, as it outperforms the single clustering algorithms and most of the existing approaches in the process of clustering gene expression profiles.

5.The characteristics of Hepatitis B virus genotypes in Kunming
International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2010;31(5):444-446
Objective To investigate the distribution and the characteristics of HBV genotype in Kunming City,China.Methods The HBV genotypes and HBV-DNA levels of 360 patients in Kunming were detected by real-time quantitative PCR using type-specific primers,the serum-types were also detected in ELISA at the same time.Results Of the 360 specimens,346(96.11%) could be detected directly,among them 196 were genotype C(56.65%),91 were genotype B(26.30%),91 were genotype B(26.30%),37 were in B-C mix-type (10.69%),21 were genotype D(6.07%),1 were genotype A(0.29%).Among them,the genotype C was higer than the others (P<0.01);HBV-DNA levels of the patients with genotype C and B-C mix-type were higer than the genotype B and the others(P<0.01,P<0.05) (beside the positive proportions of genotype B was lower in the serum with"HB-sAg( + ),HBeAg( + ),anti-HBc( + )"(P<0.01),the other genotypes were no relation with their serum-types (P>0.05);the 360 specimens,14(3.89%)could not be detected directly,the average level of them was 4.136X 103IU/ml,it was lower than that of others(P<0.05).Conclusion The HBV-genotypes in Kunming area are abundant,including genotype C,B,D,A and B/C mix-type.The dominant genotype of HBV are C and B,and the HBV-DNA level of genotypes B/C mix-type and C were singnificantly higher than that of others ;The negative relation existed between the genotype B's frequency and the positive proportions of HBeAg;The genotype D frequency of this region is higher than that of lower-altitude inland areas and lower than that of plateau areas around Lahsa,which probably stands for its epidemiologic feature.Meanwhile,those samples without direct identification contain relatively lower level of HBV-DNA,which probably suggests that HBV genotype should be conducted on a basis of a certain HBV-DNA quantity.

The Journal of Clinical Anesthesiology 2010;26(3):200-202
Objective To investigate the effect of midazolam as premedication on stress response in patients undergoing cervical plexus block.Methods Sixty female patients undergoing selective thyroid surgery were equally randomized into groups of A and B.The patients in group A were intramuscularly injected midazolam 0.08 mg/kg before cervical plexus block and those in group B were not as the controls.Cervical plexus block was performed with 20 ml mixeture of 1% lidocaine and 0.25% ropivacaine 20 min later.BP and HR were recorded,rate-systolic pressure product (RPP) was calculated,and serum glucose(Glu),cortisol (Cor) and angiotensin Ⅱ (AT-Ⅱ) were detected before enter(T_0),before cervical plexus block(T_1),at 5 min(T_2),15 min(T_3) and 25 min(T_4) after cervical plexus block injection.Results In group B BP,HR,RPP,Glu,Cor and AT-Ⅱ all higher at T_1-T_4 than those at T_0 BP,HR,RPP,Glu,Cor and AT-Ⅱ were all lower in group A than those in group B at T_1-T_4 (P<0.05).Conclusion Intramuscularly premedication with midazolam is effective in reducing stress response in patients undergoing cervical plexus block.
7.Mechanism of lactoferrin in cancer treatment
Fudan University Journal of Medical Sciences 2010;37(1):119-121
Lactoferrin has antitumoral activity. Lactoferrin exerts anti-carcinogenic effects via its ability to modulate host immunity, suppress proliferation, induce apoptosis, block cell cycle, inhibit angiogenesis, regulate carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes and sequester iron, etc. Safety and no toxicity of lactoferrin provide a new selection for cancer treatment.

9.Superficial siderosis of the center nervous system
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2009;17(4):309-311
Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system is a seldom disease in clinical practice. Its most common clinical manifestations are hearing loss and ataxia. It is a hemosiderin deposition in the surface of the brain and spinal cord after chronic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Magnetic resonance imaging can make the diagnosis. However, further research and clinical verification are needed.
10.Research progress on mechanism and premedication regimen of taxanes hypersensitivity reactions
Journal of International Oncology 2009;36(3):190-192
Hypersensitivity reactions ( HSRs) are the serious problems of taxanes in the clinical appli- cation. These reactions range in severity from mild flushing and itching to bronchospasm, dyspnea and signifi-cant alterations in blood pressure with loss of consciousness or not, and death in some rare cases. Nevertheless, HSRs are often reported only sporadically in clinical trials or as case reports. The vague or inconsistent termi-nology used to describe these reactions may reflect our poor understanding of their pathophysiology. This article will reviews the advancement of taxanes HSRs.
