AIM:By analyzing optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) characteristics of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) and comparing the differences of CSC between OCTA and indocyanine green angiography(ICGA), to explore if OCTA can substitute ICGA for diagnosis of CSC patients, and guide the treatment of photodynamic therapy (PDT).METHODS: We reviewed 30 eyes of 30 patients with CSC, who were diagnosed by fluorescein angiography (FFA) and ICGA at Beijing Tongren Eye Center from November 2015 to March 2016.All patients underwent best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, intraocular pressure, slit-lamp examination, indirect ophthalmoscope, color fundus photography, FFA, ICGA and OCTA.FFA and ICGA were captured by Spectralis HRA + OCT (Spectralis HRA + OCT;Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany).OCTA was performed by RTVue XR Avanti device (OptovueInc, Fremont, CA) with 6mm×6mm Angio Retina mode.The software (version 2017.100.0.1;OptovueInc) automatically segmented the tissue into four layers, the characteristics of choriocapillaris layer were analyzed.At the same time, the differences between OCTA and ICGA images were compared among CSC patients.The maximum diameters and areas of both choroidal hyperperfusion in ICGA and high flow signal in OCTA were measured.Then, the paired t test was used to analyze the differences between the maximum diameter and area of OCTA and ICGA measurement.RESULTS: Among 30 cases, high blood flow signals of OCTA were clearly visible in 27 cases, namely the coarse grain region;the inner low flow signals surrounded by high blood flow signals were seen in 21 cases;the outer low flow signals surrounding high blood flow signals were seen in 7 cases.High blood flow signals of OCTA were corresponded with the choroidal hyperperfusion of ICGA images;among these 30 cases, there were low reflection shadows in choroidal hyperperfusion with ICGA for 22 cases, for 21 cases out of these 22 cases, low flow signals inside of high flow signals of OCTA could be seen;9 out of 30 cases, there were low reflection halo outside of choroidal hyperperfusion of ICGA, and 7 out of these 9 cases, low flow signals outside of high flow signals of OCTA could be seen;still for those 30 cases, leakage point in late ICGA could be seen with 14 cases, however, special flow signals in OCTA could not be seen for them.For ICGA, the maximum diameter of choroidal hyperperfusion was 1.589±0.295mm, whose area was 0.705±0.131mm2;while for OCTA, the maximum diameter of high flow signal was 1.576±0.293mm, whose area was 0.745±0.138mm2.By using paired t test, there was no statistical difference between the maximum diameter of choroidal hyperperfusion in ICGA and the maximum diameter of high flow signal in OCTA, nor difference between the area of ICGA and OCTA.CONCLUSION: The high flow signals can be clearly visible in OCTA, which are corresponded with choroidal hyperperfusion in ICGA.OCTA can substitute ICGA for diagnosis of CSC patients, and guide the treatment of PDT.

Objective To quantify aqueous flare and cells in the eyes of healthy subjects and to evaluate the effect of age and sex on the blood aqueous barrier. Design Prospective case series. Participants Four hundred and forty-two eyes of 221 healthy sub- jects. Methods Aqueous flare and cells of 442 eyes were evaluated with FC-2000 laser flare cell meter (LFCM). Main Outcome Mea- sures Aqueous flare and cells. Results The mean flare values of all of eyes was 4.7?2.9 pc/ms, it was 3.1 pc/ms in the age group of less than 10 years, 3.8 pc/ms in the age group of 40-49 years and 11.0 pc/ms in the age group of 80 years or over. The mean flare val- ues in the age groups of 50 years or over were significantly higher than that in the age group of 40-49 years (P

Objective To investigate the relation between the rs2070045 locus polymorphism in the SORL1 gene and the onset risk of AD by means of Metβ-analysis. Methods Databases (Medline, Cochrane Library and CBM) were searched using keywords like SORL1, sortilin-related receptor, Alzheimer and so on, and a manual search of citations was also performed from relevant original studies and literatures. All analyses were conducted with Review Manager Version4.2 software. Results 3 literatures with 11 different ethnic groups were studied, totally including the AD group (2927 cases) and the control (3867 cases). The summary OR for studies with frequency of GG+GT genotype at rs2070045 locus in the SORLI gene was 1.19 (95%CI: 1.08-1.31, Z=3.39, P=0.0007), when it compared with the common homozygote ofTT genotype. The summary OR for allele frequency was 1.17 (95%CI: 1.07-1.27, Z=3.67, P=0.0002). Conclusion The metβ-analysis suggests that the polymorphism at rs2070045 locus of SORL1 gene might be a genetic risky factor for AD.

Many Chinese drugs (CHD) have showed their significant effects of integral immune-regulation, and lots of researches have conducted in recent years for exploring their mechanism from different levels, like cytological, molecular and genetic levels. In this paper, the relation between immune-regulation of CHD and Toll-like receptors/nuclear factor-kappaB (TLRs/NF-kappaB) signaling pathway was introduced in brief based upon the achievements of previous researches. It was pointed out that the two are closely related, to explore mechanism of CHD in this way is meaningful not only for further deepening the theoretical understanding of CHD's pharmacological immunoregulation, but also be practically facilitate for enhancing therapeutic efficacy of CHD and developing new CHD.

Objective To observe the perioperative management of cardiac surgery and extracorporeal circulation method in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency(G6PD).Methods Ten patients with G6PD deficiency underwent uneventful cardiac surgery procedures between January 2005 and December 2010.Twenty patients who had non-G6PD deficiency were as a control group,the selected conditions were the same gender,age,body mass,the risk of heart disease surgery.The preoperative management in patients with G6PD deficiency mainly focused on avoiding the drugs implicated in haemolysis,reducing the surgical stress,using moderate hypothermia extracorporeal circulation and enhancing blood conservation.Observed indicators included the assisted ventilation time,urine volume,the drainage volume of chest tube,the amount transfusion of red blood cells and plasma,the level of hemoglobin and serum total bilirubin in the 2nd day after surgery,ICU stay.Results Compared with the control group,patients with G6PD deficiency had no significant difference in duration of ventilation after the operation,drainage,urine,Hgb,bilirubin levels,and blood transfusion[(9.3 ± 4.5)h vs (8.6 ± 5.7)h,(2100 ±670)ml vs (1950 ± 490) ml,(253 ± 146)ml vs (260 ± 120)ml,(1.3 ± 1.0)U vs (1.8 ± 1.2)U,(96 ± 25)g/L vs (99 ± 12)g/L,and (24 ± 8)μmol/L vs (27 ± 1 l)μmol/L,t =0.978,2.032,1.257,0.891,2.182,2.271,and 1.329,all P > 0.05].The duration of ICU discharge was significantly longer in the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficient group[ (2.6 ± 0.6)d vs (1.8 ± 1.5)d,t =2.704,P < 0.05].Conclusions Cardiac surgery can be performed safely in patients with G6PD deficiency with enhanced perioperative management.
