Five male and one female patients with IPVS caused by infarction of occipital cortex and optic radiations of brain were reported. The ages were in the range from 21 to 69 years. The evidence of diagnosis included sudden loss of visual acuity in both eyes, normal fundus, homonymous defect of visual field, infarction of brain in CT scan, without other positive signs of central nervous system or headache or eye pain before or at the time of attack. All the patients were treated by injection of Co- Anisodine Ⅰ and Ⅱ at acupuncture points with satisfactory effects. The therapy is safe, effective, and reliable. The clinical features and the treatment mechanism were disscused.

Thirty-six patients with normal vision in one eye coupled with advanced age-related macular degeneration(AMD)in the fellow eye,and 36 eyes with drusen in one eye coupled with macular drusen in the fellow eye,and 36 normal subjects(36 eyes) were measured by FM100-Hue test.All the tesed eyes had corrected vision of 1.0 or better and had drusen in the fundus.The results showed that the total errors score of FM100-Hue test of patients whose fellow eye suffered from advanced AMD compared with that of the patients whose fellow eye did not suffer from advanced AMD,difference between the two groups in the red and panchromatic regions was statistically significant(P

Visual function in early age-related macular degeneration (AMD) were observed by contrast sensi-tivity(cs), macular threshold, FM 100-Hue test, dark adaptation, and the Amsler grid. All patients with early AMD achieved corrected visual acuity of 1.0 or better. The results revealed that early AMD showed one or more of following: abnormal macular light sensitivity (MLS), hue discripmination, CS, threshold of dark adaptation, and Amsler grid, comparing with those of the normal controls. These tests proved useful for the early diagnosis of AMD, and their sensitivity was found to be in the following descending order: MLS, FM100-hue, CS, and Amsler grid.

Objective:To study the effects of curcumin on the activity of ATPase and the mechanism of apoptosis in U-251 cell.Methods:U-251 cells were treated with 20,40,80,100?mol/L curcumin for 24 h and the growth inhibition rates of U-251 cells were measured with MTT method.Cell apoptosis was inspected with flow cytometry(FCM).The activities of ATPase were determined by colorimetry method.Results:Curcumin inhibited the proliferation of U-251 cells and induced apoptosis of U-251 cells.level of ATPase in U-251 plasma Membrane was low remarkably.Conclusion:Curcumin induced apoptosis and inhibited proliferation of U-251 cell via inhibition of activation of plasma Membrane ATPase.

The immunoregulatory effects of mescenchymal stem cell (MSC) and its application have become a focused research topic in recent years. This article reviews the up-to-date research advances in the features and mechanisms of immune regulation of MSC and its application.

Raltitrexed is a specific inhibitor of thymidylate synthase,and has been confirmed that ralti-trexed has no cross tolerance with 5-fluorouracil.Studies have shown that raltitrexed-based combination chemo-therapy has a beneficial effect on the treatment of advanced gastric cancer,and well tolerance,which is worthy of clinical use.

p62/sequestosome-1(SQSTM1)is an important selective autophagy adaptor protein, which contains six functional regions:ubiquitin-binding domain,Keap1 interacting region,LC3 interaction region,tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 binding domain,Phox and Bem1p and ZZ-type zinc finger domain. p62/SQSTM1 plays an important role in the removal of ubiquitin proteins. It also regulates the signaling pathway of nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2-antioxidant respose element, NF-κB and the caspase-8 mediated apoptosis. The abnormal expression of p62/SQSTM 8 is closely related to neurodegenerative diseases (such as Huntington disease,Alzheimer disease,Parkinson disease),cancer,infective diseases,genetic diseases and chronic diseases. So far many researchers have shed light on the structure function and mechanism of p62/SQSTM1. This paper reviews the role of p62/SQSTM1 in the metabolism of proteins,the regulation of multiple signaling pathways and in the occurrence of diseases in order to provide a new theoretical basis for the treatment of autophagy targets.

Forty-two cases of acute lumbar sprain patients were treated by strongly stimulating Shuigou(GV 26).Of them,32 cases were cured,5 cases got obvious improvement and 5 cases obtained no effect.The effective rate was 88.1％.

Objective To discuss the value of urinary trace proteins in evaluating kidney function in the course of diabetes mellitus II rehabilitation.Method To assay level of urinary trace proteins in 50 cases of diabetes mellitus II and healthy control subjects. Result Level of trace proteins in 40 cases with diabetes mellitus ranged between normal values.They showed significantly increased urinary trace proteins(80％ ).Conclusion Urinary trace proteins is a sensible indicator for evaluating kidney function in diabetes mellitus II.
