BACKGROUND:Fibrin glue can function to close the wound tissue, reduce leakage, stop bleeding, promote wound healing and prevent adhesion.
OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly review the application of fibrin glue in thyroid surgery.
METHODS:We searched China Journal Net database, Wanfang database, VIP database, Chinese Biomedical Database Online to retrieve clinical randomized controled trials related to fibrin glue applied in thyroid surgery from January 2000 to April 2013. Included studies were analyzed using Rev Man 5.2 statistical software for Meta-analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of six studies including 797 cases were enroled in result analysis. Meta-analysis showed that the drainage volume at postoperative day 1 and total postoperative drainage volume were higher in the fibrin glue group than the control group (without fibrin glue) [odds ratio=-27.36, 95% confidence interval (-33.86,-20.87),P < 0.00001; weighted mean difference=-38.73, 95% confidence interval (-44.78,-32.67),P < 0.000 01]. The suture removal time was shorter in the fibrin glue group than the control group [odds ratio=-2.00, 95% confidence interval (-2.17,-1.83),P < 0.000 01]. No significant difference was found in the postoperative 3-day fever incidence [odds ratio=1.53, 95% confidence interval (0.59,3.96),P=0.38], wound infection [odds ratio=0.86, 95% confidence interval (0.12, 6.15),P=0.88], and postoperative hematoma [odds ratio=0.86, 95% confidence interval (0.21, 3.48),P=0.83] between the two groups. These findings indicate that fibrin glue used in thyroid surgery can significantly reduce drainage by non-increasing postoperative complications.

Mechanisms of UV-B-induced apoptotic regulation in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied. The results showed that UV-B irradiation indeed inhibited the growth of yeast cells as well as induced extensive apoptosis during 96 h experiment period. However, survival of 96 h irradiated cells remained 10% while most control cells finally dead after re-growth under UV-B irradiation for 12 d. And by exposed to 0.01 mol/L or 0.1 mol/L H2O2 for 30 min, survival rate of 24 h irradiated cells were 3.0-fold or 3.2-fold than control, respectively. By to heat shock for 30 min or 60 min, survival rate of 24 h irradiated cells were 3.5-fold or 9.0-fold than control, respectively.

Objective To analyze experimentally the compressive strength of veneers on mottled teeth after Dul8e Nd:YAG laser irradiation.Methods Sixty motded teeth were extracted,including thirty maxdlary central incisors and thirty maxillary lateral incisors and each were divided equally into two groups randomly(experimental groups and control groups).The former were irradiated by pulse Nd:YAG lafer and then etched by 37%phosphorus acid.The latter only etched by 37%phosphorus acid.All the teeth were restored by composite resin veneers and tested with Instron 4505 electronic testing machine.The average collapse loads of the veneers of incisors were tested. The maximal compressive loads of the samples were obtained,then the experimental results were analyzed.Results The average collapse loads of central incisors of test groups and control groups were(0.342±0.053),(0.289±0.041) kN respectively,with a signiticant difference(t=3.16,P<0.05).The average collapse loads of lateral incisors of test groups and control groups were(0.321±0.041),(0.208 ±0.032)kN respectively.There was a significant difference when they were compared(t=7.66,P<0.05).Conclusions The compressive strength of the veneers incneases significandv when the mottled teeth are irradiated by pulse Nd:YAG laser.This method is worthy of recommending.

AIM: To investigate the preoperative binocular visual function of intermittent exotropia and the rebuilding and recovery of the postoperative binocular visual function, and analyze the effect of binocular visual function on orthophoria after surgery.
METHODS:From January 2011 to January 2014, 47 basic intermittent exotropia patients caming for treatment were collected in the clinical data. The changes in their near stereopsis, binocular visual function, binocular fusion and distance stereopsis after operations were recorded in the form of data. The preoperative binocular vision and the postoperative rebuilding were analyzed and contrasted with each other. In addition, the effect on the postoperative maintaining of orthophoria due to the existence, recovery and rebuilding of binocular visual function were observed.
RESULTS:Intermittent exotropia patients got damage in different levels on their binocular visual functions, especially on distance stereopsis, which was the heaviest and earliest. After the operation, all functions were obviously recovered and reconstructed and the improvements were statistically significant compared against those before the operation (P<0. 01). Patients having binocular visual function or part of it before the operation had a higher ratio of orthophoria compared against the patients who had lost binocular visual function before the operation and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 01). The recovery and reconstruction of the postoperative binocular visual function played an important role in maintaining the orthophoria.
CONCLUSION: The intermittent exotropia cause damage to the stereopsis which happened the earliest. Obvious recovery and reconstruction of binocular visual function can be observed after the surgery. A relatively good preoperative binocular visual function may lead to the increase in the ratio of orthophoria or cure the intermittent exotropia. Performing an operation when distance stereopsis is damaged can increase the success rate for the surgery and reduce the recurrence rate.

AIM: To analyze the direction and degree of static cyclotorsion component (SCC) and dynamic cyclotorsion component (DCC) in corneal refractive surgery.
METHODS:Retrospective analysis. Totally 130 patients (260 eyes) with corneal refractive surgery in our hospital, according to the operation method were divided into femtosecond laser - assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) group and T-photorefractive keratectomy (T-PRK) group, the differences of the parameters of the two groups were compared; the differences of SCC success rate, SCC, DCC, and the eyeball rotation direction were compared between the two groups; correlation analysis on SCC, DCC and the parameters of postoperative patients were performed.
RESULTS: High order aberrations and spherical aberration in the T-PRK group after operation was higher than those of FS - LASIK group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05); in T-PRK group SCC in the operation was successful in 98 eyes, the success rate was 81. 7%; in FS-LASIK group SCC in the operation was successful in 82 eyes, the success rate is 58. 6%, the difference of SCC success rate between the two groups was statistically significant ( P < 0. 05 ); SCC in T - PRK group was 3. 52o ±2. 17o and FS-LASIK group was 3. 49o ±2. 26o, there was no significant difference (P>0. 05); DCC in T-PRK group (2. 86o±1. 14o) was higher than that of FS-LASIK group ( 2. 17o ± 1. 09o), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). There was no statistical difference in the direction of rotation of the eyeball in operation between the two groups (P>0. 05). The SCC of subjects in operation was positively correlated with UCVA, BCVA, spherical equivalent refraction and high order aberrations ( P < 0. 05 ); the DCC of subjects in operation was positively correlated with UCVA and high order aberrations (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The success rate of SCC in T - PRK surgery is higher than that in LASIK, DCC in T - PRK surgery is higher than that in LASIK, and accurate measurement of SCC and DCC can be effective to compensate for it.
