1.Relationship of visual function with the diagnosis and therapy of eye-related diseases——require for further research
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2015;33(6):481-484
Visual cognition is a comprehensive procedure of information processing from eyes,visual pathway through cerebral cortex.Visual function covers down multiple concepts of ocular structures,psycophysics,photochemistry and photoelectric information transformation,reflecting visual acuity,contrast visual acuity,visual field,color vision,binocular vision,visual perception and many other detailed parameters.Ocular abnormal status is reflected to certain visual function while visual function is various and anfractuous from kinds of ocular problems.These complex networks lead to some misunderstanding of research in the filed of visual function concept.An expatiation of the diversified visual function is helpful for us to integrate visual function and ocular ailment process.This paper tried to explicit some misconceptions,and accentuated the importance of clinical research around visual function for the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases and nervous system diseases.
2.Tilt of IOLs and change of axial length in patients of posterior capsular opacification after Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy
International Eye Science 2017;17(8):1394-1398
AIM: To study the tilt of the intraocular lens (IOL) after Nd:YAG capsulotomy (YAG) and variation of the axial length (AL) in patients with posterior capsular opacification (PCO).METHODS: The study involved 18 eyes of 14 patients with PCO after uncomplicated phacoemulsification surgery and IOL implantation.All patients had taken examinations,including testing best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) by using standard logarithmic visual acuity chart,images of ocular anterior segment and AL by OCT.After the examinations,YAG was operated upon all patients.Each eye received one drop of Diclofenac Sodium Eye Drops immediately after YAG,and patients had taken examinations listed above again.One week later,BCVA and OCT were tested as well.Data (BCVA,tilt of IOLs,and AL) were recorded and analyzed statistically by SPSS.RESULTS: Mean patient age was 73.93±6.94y,including 5 males and 9 females,8 left eyes and 10 right eyes,altogether 14 patients with 18 eyes.In this study,tilt of IOLs was defined as the angle of anterior surface of IOL and pupil plane (briefly called Tilt,unit:°).Before YAG,mean Tilt was 2.896±2.286°,mean AL was 23.56±0.55mm.1h after YAG,mean Tilt was 4.702±2.991°,mean AL was 23.40±0.59mm,and BCVA enhanced 3.72±1.74 lines.1wk after YAG,9 patients with 12 eyes were involved in the study.The mean Tilt of these 12 eyes was 3.175±1.791° 1h after YAG and 3.434±1.835° 1wk after YAG.There were significant differences between Tilt before YAG and Tilt 1h after YAG.There were no significant differences between AL before YAG and AL 1h after YAG.There were no significant differences between Tilt 1h after YAG and Tilt 1wk after YAG.The lines of enhancement of BCVA 1h after YAG was correlated to differences between Tilt before YAG and Tilt 1h after YAG,of which the correlation coefficient was-0.523.CONCLUSION: IOLs of patients with PCO tilted after YAG,while AL rarely changed.After YAG,the less IOLs tilted,the more BCVA enhanced.

OBJECTIVE:
The objective was to investigate the effectiveness of holmium-YAG laser-assisted septoplasty for septal deviations under local anesthesia.
METHOD:
All holmium-YAG laser-assisted septoplasty procedures performed at Beijing hospital (Beijing, China) between August 2009 and May 2012. These patients were operated upon in an outpatient surgical suite.
RESULT:
The success rate after surgery with regard to nasal obstruction (50 patients) is 92.0% (46 patients) of patients reporting remarkable improvement. Of the 32 patients with rhinologic headaches, A total of 28 subjects (87.5%) had their headache scores improved by 50% or more after surgery; nine (28.1%) were pain free at the last follow-up; four (12.5%) had a less than 25% reduction in their headache score. There were no patients with severe postoperative bleeding. There were no patients with septal perforation.
CONCLUSION
The holmium-YAG laser-assisted septoplasty is a useful approach to correct septal deviations. There is improved safety due to the enhanced viewing conditions and ample operating space during septal surgery, particularly in posterior septal spurs. The holmium-YAG laser-assisted septoplasty can limit the dissection to the area of deviation, thereby reducing postoperative swelling and the development of complications. It also has other advantages including lower medical costs, and faster return to full activity.

Objective To investigate HIV high risk population size estimation method,analyze the epidemic situation in China and offer scientific evidence for policy making. Methods Appropriate methods to estimate different type high risk populations were ascertained by experimental study. Results Size estimation methods and procedures for different type high risk population were formed.Epidemic estimation and parameters fit for China were ascertained.HIV epidemic situation and characteristics were stated.

ObjectiveTo investigate effects of pamidronate on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts of rats in vitro.MethodsOsteoblasts isolated from newborn rat calvaria were treated with various concentrations of pamidronate, the proliferation of osteoblasts was evaluated with the method of methyl thiazole tetrazolium (MTT) and activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in medium was measured with kit of ALP detecting.ResultsThe proliferation of osteoblasts increased under the stimulation of Pamidronate range 10-6-M-10-12 M(P<0.05), but was inhibited at the concentration of high level (10-4 M). The activity of ALP decreased in the experiment.ConclusionPamidronate can act on the osteoblasts directly and increase the proliferation of bone cells, but inhibit the differentiation of the same cells.

Objective To compare the influence of whole sevoflurane inhaling and target-controlled infusion of propofol for the myocardial protective effect on patients with heart valve replacement surgery. Methods 30 adult patients who went through heart valve replacement surgery with cardiopulmonary by pass were selected, including ASA staging II-III and cardiac function classification (NYHA) II-III. All patients were randomly divided equally into sevoflurane group (Group S) and propofol group (Group P) . Patients were monitored before anesthetic induction. Group S got 1%sevoflurane (fresh gas flow 6 L/min) with concentration of the vaporizer increased from 1%to 3%with 1 minute interval during anesthetic induction. Group P got target-controlled infusion of propofol during anesthetic induction,the initial target plasma concentration was set at 0.8μg/mL,and the concentration increased 0.5 μg/mL every minute until intubation. All the patients got fentanyl 5 μg/kg and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg, and intubation was conducted when BIS decreased lower than 60 and mean arterial pressure (MAP) <20%basic MAP. During anesthesia maintaince,patients got 0.5-2 MAC sevoflurane inhaling or target-controlled infusion of propofol 2-4μg/mL with discontinuous intravenous fentanyl and rocuronium, and maintained BIS 40-60, MAP<±20%basic MAP, central venous pressure 5-15 cm H2O. Outcome variables included demographic characteristics of patients. The following parameters were also recorded, including cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) and lactate (LAC) in before anesthetic induction (T0), aortic inbation (T1),30 minutes after aorta opening (T2), 6 hours after aorta opening (T3) and 24 hours after aorta opening (T4) . Results There was no statistical significance in demographic characteristics during peri-operation between the two groups ( > 0.05) . The pre-opertaive cTnI, CK, CK-MB and LAC were within the normal range, but increased siginicantly on T2, T3 and T4, and was more significant on T3 ( < 0.01) between two groups, and the intra-group comparison showed no difference on other time points. Conclusion When myocardial injury markers used as myocardial protection outcome variables, whole sevoflurane inhaling could not reduce the release of cTnI compared to propofol TIVA in heart valve replacement surgery.
