AIM:To evaluate the poor vision condition and analyze the myopia etiological factor in primary school He'xi district of Sanya.
METHODS: A cohort of 1 218 subjects were recruited randomly from grade 1~6 of two primary schools. Visual activity test, dioptroscopy and risk factor questionnaire were evaluated.
RESULTS: The prevalence of poor vision was 29. 55%. The incidence of myopia increased with grade, and was significantly higher in girls than that in boys. The outdoor activity time of myopic pupil ( 7. 25 ± 5. 35h/wk ) was significantly lower than emmetropic pupil (11. 86±6. 65h/wk) ( P < 0. 05 ). The usage of electronic product ( TV, computater and cell phone) time of myopic pupil (13. 36±8. 35h/wk) was significantly higher than emmetropic pupil (7. 75±5. 83h/wk) (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The increase of myopia incidence is closely related with sparing outdoor activity and excess usage of electronic product.

The HLA DQA1 genes of 40 IDDM patients (including 8 cases with onset of diabetes before 14 years of age, 19 between 15-30 years and 13 after 31 years) and 51 healthy controls were studied by using for allele specific oligonucleotide probes. All of our research subjects are of Southern Chinese origin. The results showed that the HLA DQA1 52Arg(+) associated IDDM susceptibility is significantly higher in the group younger than 14 years of age (P

Objective To search for evidence of diagnosis of pulmonary embolism for guiding clinical practice.Methods We searched PubMed(1970~2005-10)and CBM(1992~2005-10)in Oct.2005 to identify system reviews(SR)and cross-sectional study(CSS)about the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.Results Sixteen SR and 9 CSS were identified in PubMed,none in CBM.Pulmonary arteriography was the gold standard in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.Our result showed that computed tomography,ventilation-perfusion scanning and doppler ultrasound were useful in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism combind with clinical judgment.Multidetector CT might be another gold standard in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.A negative result on quantitative rapid ELISA of D-dimer could exclude the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.Conclusion Diagnostic tests combind with clinical judgment are useful for diagnosing or excluding pulmonary embolism.

We present an algorithm for numerical solution of transport equation in diffusive regimes, in which the transport equation is nearly singular and its solution becomes a solution of a diffusion equation. This algorithm, which is based on the Least-squares FEM in combination with a scaling transformation, presents a good approximation of a diffusion operator in diffusive regimes and guarantees an accurate discrete solution. The numerical experiments in 2D and 3D case are given, and the numerical results show that this algorithm is correct and efficient.

Trans-cinnamaldehyde, the main component of volatile oil from cassia twig or Cinnamomum cassia, which is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Trans-cinnamaldehyde is a kind olefine aldehyde of organic compounds and has many pharmacological properties, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-bacterial, antidiabetic, anti-obesity, and neuroprotection etc. The compound has preventive and therapeutic effects on the nervous system, cardiovascular, cancer, diabetes and other diseases. Trans-cinnamaldehyde, as a preventive care of nature medicine, has great clinical and market potential. This paper gives a review about the pharmacological effects and mechanism of trans-cinnamaldehyde researched in the latest five years. We hope to provide some basic information for further research on trans-cinnamaldehyde.

0.05) between two groups.Conclusion Two surgicel porcedures offer smilar results in the surgical treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax.Both techniques are equally safe,small traumatic,pain controllable,and there are little postoprerative complications and the relapse rate is very low.

AIM: To explore the effects of prostaglandi n I 2 (PGI 2) on mesenteric microcirculation and hemorheology during renal isch emia/reperfusion (IR) injury. METHODS: 36 rabbits were randomly distributed into the sham oper ated group (sham group), renal ischemia/reperfusion injury group (IR group) and PGI 2+IR group(PGI 2 group). IR group received clamping for 60 min follow ed by 120 min of reperfusion. A microcircular microscope image analysis system w as used to study the changes of mesenteric microcirculation and hemorheology at 60 min of ischemia and 120 min of reperfusion, respectively, while the blood sa mples were obtained for the measurement of hemorheological indexes. RESULTS: ① In IR group during the period of renal IR, the numb er of adhesive leukocytes and microthrombus, hemorrhage and hemorheological ind exes such as blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, blood reduction viscosity, he matocrit, erythrocyte aggregation index, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, eryt hrocyte sedimentation rate K and plasma fibrinogen were significantly higher, w hile microvascular diameters, blood flow velocity and erythrocyte deformation i ndex were significantly lower compared with sham group (P0.05). CONCLUSIONS: PGI 2 ameliorates the disturbance of mesenteric microcirculation and hemorheology caused by renal IR injury with the best effect at 10 ng?kg -1?min -1.

AlM: To observe the effects of the coelomic cavity injection of triamcinolone acetonide ( TA) combined with laser photocoagulation on patients with retinal vein occlusion.
METHODS:Fifty-six patients of retinal obstruction with macular edema were accepted from January 2010 to December 2012 in our hospital. All patients received iodized lecithin and Xueshuantong. And, patients with central retinal vein occlusion ( CRVO ) , hemi- central retinal vein occlusion ( hemi-CRVO ) and branch retinal vein occlusion ( BRVO ) treated by TA combined with laser photocoagulation, respectively. Follow-up period was of at least 6mo
RESULTS: After the treatment of 1, 3 and 6mo, the central foveal thickness was reduced significantly ( P<0. 05). After followed up 6-12mo, the total effective rate of CRVO, Hemi-CRVO and BRVO patients was 83% ~95% and all the patients had no significant adverse reactions.
CONCLUSlON:Basing on the traditional treatment, TA combined with laser photocoagulation is more effective in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion and is worthy of clinical usage.

ObjectiveTo study the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in brain metastases, and the relationship between DWI results and the primary tumor pathology. Methods76 cases with brain metastases were grouped according to the primary cancer pathology. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of tumor parenchyma, capsule area, edema around tumors and normal parenchyma were determined; the ratio of high signal on the DWI were calculated (namely diffusion limited) in different tumor. ResultsThe ADC was (1.1364±0.310)×10-3 mm2/s in tumor parenchyma, (2.167±0.472)×10-3 mm2/s in capsule, (1.597±0.238)×10-3 mm2/s in edema and (0.812±0.158)×10-3 mm2/s in normal parenchyma (P<0.05). 15 cases appeared diffusion limited (19.7%), in which the primary tumors were lung cancer in 10 patients (66.6%) (including 5 cases with small cell lung cancer, 5 cases with none small cell lung cancer), breast cancer in 3 cases, and the other 2 cases were colon cancer and teratocarcinoma of testis (P>0.05). The minimum ADC were (0.72±0.16)×10-3 mm2/s in tumor parenchyma with diffuse limited metastases and (0.78±0.21)×10-3 mm2/s without diffuse limited (P=0.325). ConclusionDWI can respond to brain metastases to the microstructure change, but diffusion limited may not be related with the primary histopathology.

The relationship between C936T polymorphism at 3'-untranslated region of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene and diabetic nephropathy (DN) was analysed in 194 type 2 diabetic patients. The frequencies of genotype CC and allele C were significantly higher in DN group than those in non-DN group and control group. Allele C and genotype CC of VEGF may be a genetic marker susceptible to DN.
