1.Correlation of pulmonary surfactant protein B, C and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(6):622-625
Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome is one of the common critically ill newborn's disease, the pathogenesis of which is closely related to gene mutation of the pulmonary suffactant protein(SP).Surfactant protein is an important component of the pulmonary surfactant, which plays an important role in the structure, metabolism, and function of pulmonary surfactant.SP-B and SP-C in pulmonary surfactant is extremely important and closely related to each other.Study on relationship between the SP gene allelic variation and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome could contribute to early genetic intervention, promote the clinical diagnosis and treatment, and bring far-reaching significance to reduce the neonatal mortality rate.

6.Clinical analysis of posterior capsular rupture in small incision non -phacoemulsification cataract surgery
International Eye Science 2015;(8):1432-1434
AIM:To analyze the cause of posterior capsular rupture in small incision non - phacoemulsification cataract surgery and investigate the treatment methods.
METHODS: The clinical data of 108 cases ( 121 eyes ) undergone small incision non - phacoemulsification cataract surgery combined with intraocular lenses ( IOL) implantation were retrospectively analyzed. The causes of posterior capsular rupture and treatment of 6 patients (6 eyes) after surgery were analyzed and summarized.
RESULTS: Six cases ( 6 eyes, 4. 96%) occurred posterior capsular rupture during the operation, of which 2 cases ( 2 eyes ) underwent posterior chamber IOL implantation intraoperative, 2 cases (2 eyes) receivedIIstage IOL implantation in the ciliary sulcus at 1wk postoperative, 2 cases ( 2 eyes ) were given anterior chamber IOL implantation. One case ( 1 eye ) whose vision acuity <0. 1 was macular degeneration; One case ( 1 eye ) whose vision acuity = 0. 3 was diabetic retinopathy;0. 4~0. 6 in 2 cases (2 eyes), 0. 6~0. 8 in 2 cases (2 eyes) after 1 ~3mo postoperatively. No severe syndrome was found after surgery.
CONCLUSION:Posterior capsular rupture which occurs in different stages of the operation is the commonest intraoperative complication in small lincision non -phacoemulsification cataract surgery. With improving operative techniques, and continuously accumulating experience, incidence of posterior capsular rupture can be effectively reduced. Even posterior capsular rupture occurs intraoperative, patients can still get a good outcome after timely and proper treatment.

Objective To analyze and sort the character of symptom and pathology of 223 HIV/AIDS patients in Yunnan Provine. Methods Sort the clinical periods into groups subject to 223 HIV/AIDS patients who voluntarily accept the consultations and treatments for the first try in Yunnan province, then observe their tongue-appearance accordingly. Results By separately observing the color, shape and aspect of the tongue and tongue-fur which belongs to patient during AIDS period and asymptomatic period, discovered that the pathological tongue-fur appearance of all clinical periods trends to greasy, thereinto, in period of AIDS, 47.45% were white-greasy, 16.06% were yellow-greasy, 8.02% were yellow and thin. In terms of color of tongue, 46.71% of the total samples were light pink and white, 32.12% were red, and 21.17% were purple and gore. In period of asymptomatic, most of the tongue-appearance was light pink and thin white, which obviously exceeded the AIDS period. It indicates that the higher level of immunity, the more normal appearance of tongue can be expected. Group A (200≤CD4
10.The effects of sacral nerve root electrostimulation on the colon function and its mechanisms in a rat model of spinal cord injury.
Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology 2016;32(1):34-38
OBJECTIVETo study the effects of sacral nerve root electrostimulation (SNS) on the colon function and its mechanisms in rats with spinal cord injury (SCI).
METHODSOne hundred and four Wistar rats were divided into three groups: A, B and C. A group ( n = 24) was divided into three subgroups (n = 8) for studying the bioelectricity: Normal group (NG), SCI group (SCI) and SCI group with SNS(SNS); B group( n = 24) was divided into three subgroups( n = 8) for studying the colon motility: NG, SCI and SNS. C group( n = 56) were divided into three groups for studying the change of morphology and neurotransmitters(SP and VIP): NG (n = 8), SCI (n = 24), and SNS (n = 24) . In SCI and SNS, included of three subgroups: 24, 48, 72 h after spinal cord injury (n = 8).
RESULTSIn SCI group, the activity of bioelectricity in proximal and distal colon was reduced; the colon motility was lessened, and colon mucosa appeared different degree of damage; cell-cell connections between intestinal epithelial cells were destroyed. The expressions of substance P(SP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in colon were decreased obviously. SNS was found to activate the bioelectricity, promote the colon motility, improve the intestinal mucosal, and increase the expressions of SP and VIP. Conclusion: SNS can activate the peristalsis, rehabilitate the motility of denervated colon, protection of the intestinal mechanical barrier between intestinal epithelial cells and tight junction, rebuild the colon function through activating the bioelectricity and increase the expressions of SP and VIP.
