The progressive injury of retinal ganglion cells ( RGCs) is a common occurrence in several eye diseases, which ultimately may lead to irreversible blindness. Currently, there are still no effective or ideal treatments for it in practice, however some recent studies show that stem cell transplantation may provide a promising new idea for neuroprotection and replacement of retinal ganglion cells. This paper will review the research progress of stem cell transplantation-based treatment.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifesfations and diagnostic and therapeutic features of cholangiocarcinoma associated with hepatolithiasis.Methods The clinical data, the diagnotic and therapeutic featares of 54 cases of cholangiocacinoma associated with hepatolithiasis were retrospectively analyzed.Results The occurrence rate of hepatolithiasis concomitant with hepatocholangiocarcinoma was 11.8%.Due to a lack of specific clinical manifestations, the preoperative diagnosis of this condition was difficult. In this series, the (correct) diagnotic rate of hepatocholangiocarcinoma before operation was only 11.1%. The radical resection rate was 51.8%. Radical resection of the tumor had a better prognosis than that of non-resection of tumor.(Conclusions) Patients with long-term recurrent hepatolithiasis tended to have associated cholangiocarcinoma. Early diagnosis of the disease was difficult, and the treatment results and prognosis were poor. Therefore, (patients) with hepatolithiasis, espesially those with recurrent attacks, should undergo operation early. In cases diagnosed as hepatic cholangioearcinoma at operation, a radical resection should be performed, if possible, and a favorable outcome may be attained.

AIM:To establish an LC-MS method for determining the concentrations of loratadine (LOR) in human plasma and to evaluate its pharmacokinetic characteristics. METHODS: A ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C8 (5 μm, 150 mm×4.6 mm) column was used, atmospheric pressure electronic spray ionization (AP-ESI) and ion mass spectrum (m/z) of 388.2 (M+H)+ were selected to quantify LOR, and 275.1 (M+H)+ for ropivacaine (internal standard, IS). RESULTS: The linear range of LOR standard curve was 0.5-50 ng·ml-1, and the determination limit was 0.5 ng·ml-1. The pharmacokinetic parameters of LOR after a single dose of 20 mg tablet (T1), capsule (T2) and reference (R) were as follows, the half life (t1/2) 13.52±1.35, 13.14±0.98 and 14.00±1.25 h, the time to peak concentration (Tmax) 1.24±0.06, 1.18±0.12 and 1.17±0.12 h, the peak concentration (Cmax) 21.72±7.70, 21.49±8.34 and 20.50±8.65 ng·ml-1, the area under time-concentration curve (AUC0-48 and AUC0-∞) 137.24±47.84 and 146.61±51.03 ng·ml-1·h, 139.65±45.69 and 148.04±48.10 ng·ml-1·h, 134.19±49.03 and 143.70±52.08 ng·ml-1·h, the relative bioavailability of LOR tablet and capsule were (105.49±8.08)% and (102.90±10.02)%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The LC-MS method for determining the concentration of LOR in human plasma is sensitive and accurate and can be used for LOR bioavailability and pharmacokinetic studies. LOR tests and reference are bioequivalent.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of low molecular weight heparin sodium (LMWHS) therapy for exertional heat stroke (EHS) patients with pre-disseminated intravascular coagulation (pre-DIC).Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted. Thirty-six patients with EHS with pre-DIC admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of 180th Hospital of Chinese PLA from April 2012 to November 2014 were divided into heparin sodium group (n = 20) and LMWHS group (n = 16) in accordance with the random number table. All patients received bundle treatment after being admitted to the hospital, including rapid cooling, fluid resuscitation, organ support (mechanical ventilation, hemopurification if necessary), supplement of pro-coagulation factors, etc. The patients in heparin sodium group were treated with continuous heparin sodium 12 500 U throughout 24 hours with intravenous pump for 5 days, and the patients in LMWHS group were given LMWHS 2 500 U subcutaneously, twice a day for 5 days.The incidence of DIC, incidence of bleeding and mortality of two groups were compared.The platelet count (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (Fib) and D-dimer of each patient between pre and post treatment times were compared.Results No significant difference was found in the incidence of DIC and mortality between LMWHS group and heparin sodium group (31.2% vs. 30.0%,χ2 =0.007,P = 0.936; 6.2% vs. 5.0%,χ2 = 0.026,P = 0.871). Incidence of bleeding during treatment in LMWHS group was significantly lower than that in heparin sodium group (12.5% vs. 45.0%,χ2 = 4.425,P = 0.035). After treatment,PLT in both LMWHS group and heparin sodium group was significantly increased compared with that before treatment (×109/L: 140.5±17.5 vs. 110.5±16.5, 152.6±21.5 vs. 120.0±20.0, bothP< 0.05) and D-dimer was significantly decreased (mg/L: 0.5±0.1 vs. 3.2±1.2, 0.6±0.2 vs. 4.4±1.8, bothP< 0.05). APTT after treatment in heparin sodium group was significantly prolonged compared with that before treatment (s: 75.3±10.6 vs. 44.1±8.2,P< 0.05) while no change in APTT was found in LMWHS group (s: 38.6±5.5 vs. 42.1±8.4,P> 0.05). No significant difference was found in PT and Fib between pre and post treatment in all the patients.Conclusion When LMWHS was applied in EHS patients in pre-DIC stage, it could not only prevent DIC as efficiently as heparin sodium, but also results in lower incidence of bleeding. So LMWHS is safer.
