AIM:To explore the possible alteration of refraction and estimate the potential impact of visual quality, investigate the impact of intraocular structure between the simple operation and the combination of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation, and observe the influence among various tamponade materials application.
METHODS: Ultrasound biomicroscopy ( UBM ) and intraocular len ( IOL ) Master were measured for simple vitrectomy patients ( the simple group, 37 eyes ) and vitrectomy combined with cataract surgery patients ( the combined group, 11 eyes ) . Several parameters were measured such as the anterior chamber depth ( ACD ) , angle opening distance ( AOD ) , trabecular iris angle (TIA), axial length (AL), et al . The simple group was further divided into three sub - groups by various tamponade materials in vitreous: silicone oil group, gas group and equilibrium liquid group. All patients were measured including ACD, AOD250, AOD500, TIA500, AL and corneal curvature (K1, K2) parameters preoperatively and 2wk postoperatively.
RESULTS: AOD250, AOD500, TIA500 and AL were decreased 0. 13±0. 21mm, 0. 16±0. 22mm, 8. 68o±9. 72o and 0. 18±0. 24mm ( all P<0. 05 ) respectively in the simple group postoperatively. ACD, AOD250, AOD500, TIA500 and AL in combined group increased 0. 95±0. 54mm, 0. 13±0. 12mm, 0. 22±0. 20mm, 11. 49o±11. 06o, and 0. 45±0.30mm ( all P < 0. 05 ) respectively after operation. Alteration of ACD, AOD250, AOD500, TIA500 and AL were different between simple group and combined group ( P<0. 05). Of data from various tamponade materials sub-groups, ACD, AOD250, AOD500 and TIA500 of the gas group reduced 0. 19±0. 17mm, 0. 14±0. 09mm, 0. 20±0. 12mm, and 12. 02o±6. 64o respectively after operation ( P<0. 05), the AOD250, AOD500, TIA500 and axial length of silicone oil group decreased 0. 19±0. 25mm, 0. 21±0. 26mm, 10. 44o±9. 67oand 0. 23±0. 19mm respectively after operation ( P < 0.05 ) , while equilibrium liquid group had no significant changed in all intraocular structure (P>0. 05). However, neither the corneal thickness nor curvature (K1, K2) were changed postoperatively (P>0. 05).
CONCLUSION:Alteration of anterior segment and axial length in combined group are different from that of the simple group, while the corneal thickness and corneal curvature ( K1, K2 ) are not obviously changed in all groups. Meanwhile, various tamponade materials can also cause different impact on intraocular structure and refraction. In brief, alterations of intraocular structure might cause discrepant refractive changes and potential influence of visual quality.

Objective:To investigate the effect of thrombus burden on the clinical outcome of endovascular recanalization in large vessel occlusive stroke.Methods:Patients with acute anterior circulation occlusion who underwent endovascular treatment within 24 hours after onset in Zhengzhou University People′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. According to the clot burden score (CBS) of DSA, total objectives were divided into CBS≥6 group (24 cases) and CBS<6 group (38 cases). Clinical data of the two groups were collected and the modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the clinical outcome at 90 days after surgery. Independent sample t-test, Wilcoxon rank sum test and χ 2 test were used to compare the clinical data between the two groups. Independent risk factors affecting the clinical outcome were analyzed by binary logistic regression. Results:There were no statistically significant differences in basic demographic data, stroke risk factors and other factors between the CBS≥6 group and CBS<6 group ( P>0.05).The proportion of using tirofiban after surgery in the CBS≥6 group (63.2%, 24/38) was lower than that in the CBS<6 group (87.5%, 21/24) (χ2=4.380, P=0.044). The discharge NIHSS score of the CBS≥6 group was [5.0 (3.3, 7.8) points] lower than CBS<6 group [8.5 (1.8, 14.5) points] ( Z=5.221, P=0.022). The proportion of postoperative mRS 0-2 was (91.7%, 22/24) in the CBS≥6 group higher than CBS<6 group(39.5%, 15/38) (χ2=20.486, P=0.001), there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.05). The results of binary logistics regression analysis showed the CBS groups (OR=0.042, 95%CI 0.007-0.244 , P=0.001) was an independent risk factor affecting good outcome. Subgroup analysis of whether tirofiban was used or not showed there was no statistically significant difference in clinical prognosis between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The clinical outcome of CBS≥6 group is significantly better than that of CBS<6 group, and patients with small thrombus burden are more likely to get a good clinical outcome of 90 days.

Objective To study the immunogenicity of human embryonic stem cells(hESCs)and the derived neural stem cells(NSCs)in vitro.Methods The constitutive expression of human leucocyte antigen(HLA)Ⅰ and Ⅱ in hESCs and the NSCs derived from these hESCs were detected by flow cytometry (FCM), as well as the expression of HLA-Ⅰ,Ⅱin NSCs induced by 30 ng/ml recombination human interferon-?(IFN-?).Meanwhile, the NSCs before and after induction of IFN-? were co-cultured with peripheral blood lymphocyte obtained from healthy person.Lymphocyte proliferation standing for the immunoreactivity of NSCs was then investigated.Results The hESCs slightly expressed HLA-Ⅰ(6.18%) and hardly any HLA-Ⅱ before differentiation.However, the NSCs expressed more HLA-Ⅰ(23.56%)as well as HLA-Ⅱ(1.28%, 1.73%)than the hESCs did.Both HLA-Ⅰ(46.43%)and HLA-Ⅱ(8.73%, 10.57%)expressed by the NSCs after they were induced by IFN-? were up-regulated.Conclusions hESCs express certain level of HLA-Ⅰ molecules but do not constitutively express HLA-Ⅱ molecules.The derived NSCs express heavy HLA-Ⅰ and a little HLA-Ⅱ, when treated by IFN-? they can inducibly up- regulated both molecules.The NSCs derived from HESCs are of immunogenicity, which induce rejection aiming at HLA-Ⅰ molecules or even at HLA-Ⅱ molecules when the host is inflammative or under stress, which can result in a failure of cellular transplantation.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the incidence rate, animal hosts, and human inapparent infection rate from surveillance data collected in Jiangsu province from 1996 to 2000 and the risk factors of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).

METHODSData on the incidence rate was collected from the whole province to describe the epidemiologic characteristics of HFRS. Data on the density of rats, proportion of rats with virus, index of rats with virus and the human inapparent infection rate were collected in special areas according to the standardised protocol in the project.

RESULTSThe incidence rate of HFRS reduced continuously in Jiangsu province, with a 42.17% reduction from 1996 to 2000. The ratio between the incidence rate of autumn-winter peak and spring peak had also reduced. The main host in spring was Rattus norvegicus (with a density of 3.07%), while that in autumn was Apodemus agrarius (with a density of 4.64%). The density of main hosts and mixed species of rats had all reduced during the five years of observation. The proportions of Rattus norvegicus, Apodemus agrarius, Mus musculus with virus were relatively high in spring and autumn. The index of Rattus norvegicus and Mus musculus with virus in spring were 0.025 5 and 0.028 4 respectively, while that of Apodemus agrarius with virus in autumn was 0.030 2. The average human inapparent infection rate was 4.73% in the five years.

CONCLUSIONThe incidence rate of HFRS in Jiangsu reduced significantly from 1996 to 2000, but the risk factors still widely existed. Suggesting that the surveillance program needs to be carried out steadily in Jiangsu.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and security of anti-platelet and anticoagulant therapy on prevention of ischemic stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NAF).

METHODSWe searched PubMed, EMbase, CENTREN and its affiliated clinical trial registration data center, CBMdisc, VIP, and CNKI databases from establishment to Dec 2009 to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) covering the use of anti-platelet agents and anticoagulants for patients with NAF. Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.0 software after the strict evaluation of the methodological quality of the included RCTs.

RESULTSFourteen RCTs involving 15 880 patients were include. Compared with placebo or no use of anti-platelet drugs, antiplatelet therapy didn't reduce ischemic stroke (RR = 0.83, 95%CI 0.68 to 1.00, P = 0.05), systemic emboli (RR = 0.71, 95%CI 0.34 to 1.51, P = 0.38) and all-cause mortality (RR = 0.88, 95%CI 0.73 to 1.07, P = 0.21) while significantly increased the major bleeding (RR = 2.88, 95%CI 1.21 to 6.86, P = 0.02) in patients with NAF, intracranial hemorrhage was not affected by antiplatelet therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (RR = 3.25, 95%CI 0.84 to 12.62, P = 0.09). Compared with anti-platelet therapy, anticoagulant therapy significantly reduced the incidence of ischemic stroke (RR = 1.84, 95%CI 1.48 to 2.28, P < 0.01) and systemic emboli (RR = 1.94, 95%CI 1.24 to 3.03, P = 0.004) but significantly increased the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage (RR = 0.49, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.78, P = 0.003), did not affect all-cause mortality (RR = 1.06, 95%CI 0.90 to 1.23, P = 0.50) and the incidence of major bleeding (RR = 0.95, 95%CI 0.76 to 1.19, P = 0.66) in NAF patients.

CONCLUSIONSCompared with the placebo and no use of anti-platelet drugs, anti-platelet therapy didn't reduce ischemic stroke and systemic emboli but increased the risk of major bleeding in NAF patients. Compared with anti-platelet therapy, anticoagulant therapy significantly reduced the ischemic stroke and systemic emboli without increasing the risk of major bleeding, but significantly increased the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage in NAF patients. Since the study included RCTs with limited and less uniform outcome endpoints, the conclusions should be verified with RCTs with more uniform endpoints and longer follow-up time.
