AIM:To investigate the efficacy of controlled continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis(CCC) technique in short axial length and shallow anterior chamber eyes.METHODS:Sixty-eight patients(68 eyes) with short axial length and shallow anterior chamber were included.The routine CCC technique was used in 32 cases (32 eyes) and controlled CCC technique was used in 36 cases (36 eyes).The success rate and complication were compared between two groups. RESULTS:The success rate of the routine technique group and controlled technique group was 53. 13% and 86.11% respectively. Incomplete CCC leading to posterior capsule tears was 9.38% and zero in two groups respectively.CONCLUSION: Controlled CCC technique can increase the success rate and reduce complications in short axial length and shallow anterior chamber eyes.KEYWORDS:phacoemulsification; continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis; complication

Purpose To observe the changes of left atrial (LA) structure and function in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency catheter ablation by echocardiography in order to provide basis for clinical evaluation of surgery.Materials and Methods Forty-four patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and treated with radiofrequency catheter ablation in PLA General Hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 were enrolled.According to whether or not to restore sinus rhythm after operation,the patients were divided into sinus rhythm group and atrial fibrillation recurrence group.The paramrters of LA including diameter,maximum and minimum volume,systolic volume,ejection fraction,active ejection fraction,conduit function index and dilatation index were measure by echocardiography before and at least 6 months after radiofrequency catheter ablation.The data were compared between and within groups.Results All patients were followed up for (6.0±0.5) months after ablation operation.29 of 44 patients (66％) maintained sinus rhythm;the anteroposterior,vertical,and left to right diameters of LA in patients with sinus rhythm after operation were significantly lower than those before operation,but the ejection fraction of LA increased (all P＜0.05).However,in patients with atrial fibrillation recurrence after operation,the volume of LA increased (P＜0.05);the diameters of LA did not show significant differences;the ejection and active ejection fraction of LA had significantly decreased (P＜0.05).Compared with patients with sinus rhythm after operation,patients with atrial fibrillation recurrence after operation were older and had higher proportion of hypertension (P＜0.05).Conclusion After ablation,the diameter of LA decreases and the ejection fraction increases in patients with sinus rhythm;the volume of LA increases and the function reduces in patients with atrial fibrillation recurrence.

To construct a secretory-expression vector of antimicrobial peptide Bactenecin 7(Bac7),and identify the secretory-expression product in L.lactis MG1363 and its bioactivity.The splicing primers of regulation elements and Bac7 gene,which designed according to codon usage preferences of L.lactis MG1363,were chemically synthesized,and the overlap-extension PCR method was used to splice the full length of Bac7 gene.Then the Bac7 gene was linked to expression vector pMG36e to construct pMG36e/Bac7 vector,and pMG36e/Bac7 was transformed into L.lactis MG1363 by electrophoration.RT-PCR and Western blot assays were applied to investigate the expression of the Bac7 gene in L.lactis,and bioactivity of Bac7 in culture supernatant of L.lactis was tested with plate-diffusion method.The results showed that the Bac7 gene and its regulation elements was amplified and cloned in the vector pMG36e successfully,The secretory-expressed Bac7 in L.lactis MG1363 harboring pMG36e/Bac7 was identified by Western blot,and it had high bacteriostatic activity against E.coli.These results indicate that the recombinant L.lactis MG1363 could express bioactive Bac7,which lays a foundation for further study of oral administration of a Bac7-secreting L.lactis to treat intestinal bacteria infection.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the pathological diagnostic features and the differential diagnosis of radial sclerosing lesions of the breast.

METHODSMorphological observation and immunohistochemistry were applied to forty-four cases of radial sclerosing lesions of the breast.

RESULTSAll forty-four patients were females, the mean age was 40.3 years (range 17 to 54 years). In the 31 consultation cases, 13 were misdiagnosed as carcinoma. The lesions had a radiating outline, and a central scar area where squeezed or pressed irregular shaped tubules were frequently seen. Dilated tubules and proliferated ducts or lobules were seen radically arranged at the periphery accompanied sometimes with the apocrine glands or columnar cell metaplasia and hyperplasia. Aside, there were 14 cases displaying necroses and 8 cases showing atypical ductal hyperplasia. Immunostaining showed myoepithelial cells around the pseudo-infiltrating tubules, and the florid proliferating epithelial cells were positive for CK5/6.

CONCLUSIONSRadial sclerosing lesions of the breast possess characteristic histological features, and may be misdiagnosed as carcinoma. The lesions should be differentiated from ductal carcinoma in situ, lobular neoplasia, tubular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma.

A series of novel sorafenib analogues were designed and synthesized. The cytotoxic activities of these compounds were tested in four tumor cell lines. Some of the compounds showed potent antiproliferative activity against the tested cell lines with IC50 = 4-20 micromol x L(-1). Some compounds demonstrated competitive antiproliferative activities to sorafenib against tested cancer cell lines. Among them, compound 7c demonstrated significant inhibitory activities on ACHN, HCT116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines with IC50 values of 9.01, 4.97, 6.61 micromol x L(-1), respectively.
