Objective To compare the safety,effectiveness and predictability of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with fem- tosecond laser (IntraLase) and mechanical microkeratome (Moria M2,head 90?m).Design Prospective clinical study.Participant 148 patients (274 eyes) with high myopia received operation of LASIK.Method The patients were assigned to receiving LASIK with corneal flap creation by Intralase femtosecond laser (134 eyes of 76 patients) or Moria 90 keratome (140 eyes of 72 patients),both groups receiving eximer laser ablation with VISX Star S4.Followed-up examinations such as visual acuity,refraction,wavefront aberra- tion,etc.were scheduled for 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3 months postoperatively.Main Outcome Measures Visual acuity,refrac- tion,wavefront aberration,Schirmer test and tear film breakup time(BUT).Results At 3 months after operation,108 eyes (80.6%) of IntraLase group had UCVA better than or equal to BSCVA preoperatively,showing no statistically significant difference to microker- atome group (116 eyes,82.9%,P=0.642).The mean residual spheroequivalent of refraction of IntraLase group was -0.49?0.70D,show- ing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (-0.56?0.83D,P=0.448).The mean Schirmer test of Intralase group was 9.5?4.0mm,showing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (9.5?7.2mm,P=0.950).The mean BUT of IntraLase group was 7.9?4.3s,showing no statistically significant difference to microkeratome group (8.08?5.48s,P=0.869).The postoperative higher-order aberrations of the IntraLase group was 0.480?0.133?m,lower than that of microkeratome group (0.578?0.169?m,P=0.034). Conclusions Thin-flap LASIK with femtosecond laser and mechanical keratome flap creation are both safe,effective for the correction of high myopia,showing good predictability and stability.Femtosecond laser has slightly better clinical outcomes than microkeratome.

Objective To improve the level of diagnosis and treatment of the traumatic and hemorrhagic shock.Methods 50 cases of patients with sever traumatic and hemorrhagic shock treated in our department between May 2004 and May 2007 were analyzed retrospectively,and their age,shock severity scale,time to hospital after in- jury,operation,fluid resuscitation volume etc were analyzed to show the relationship between the factors and the out- come.Results The rescue success rate was 76%(38 cases),and traumatic mortality was 24%(12 eases).Conclu- sion Shock severity scale and incorreet resuscitation manipulation are the main factors affecting the result of resusci- tation and treatment of traumatic shock,and early surgery can effectively improve the result of severe trauma thera- py.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for eye cyclotorsion and pupil centroid shift during LASIK.Design Non-controlled retrospective case series.Participant 131 patients (262 eyes) with myopia received bilateral LASIK.Methods Eye cy- clotorsion and pupil centroid shift were measured with Custom Vue~(TM) software during operation and compared with age,gender,right or left eye,flap-making method,spherical equivalent (SE),pupil diameter before and during operation.Main Outcome Measures The de- gree of eye cyclotorsion and distance of pupil centroid shift during LASIK.Results The mean eye cyclotorsion during LASIK was 3.07??2.07?(0?-8.6?).The mean pupil centroid shift was 0.33?0.14 mm (0.04-0.51 mm).The eye cyclotorsion was relevant to preoperative pupil size,difference of pupil size before and during operation,and preoperative SE (r=0.188,0.156,0.130,all P7.0 mm was higher than that of with pupil diameter≤7.0mm (3.35??2.17?,2.71??1.89?,P=-0.014).Pupil centroid shift was higher in fight eyes than that in left eyes (0.39?0.12 mm,0.28?0.13 mm,P=0.000).Conclu- sion Eye cyclotorsion and pupil centroid shift during LASIK can be measured with Custom Vue~(TM) system.The eye cyclotorsion may be influenced by the preoperative pupil size.The pupil centroid during LASIK was more significant in the right eyes than in the left eyes.

Objective To compare the dose distribution of reserved planned tangential beam IMRT(2-field IMRT) with multifields beams IMRT(6-field IMRT) of the bulk-recurrent chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer patients.Methods For 8 patients with chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer bulk-recurrence,2-field IMRT and 6-field IMRT plans were generated on PTV in Pinnacle Planning System.The prescribed dose of PTV was 50 Gy in 25 fractions and GTV was 66-70 Gy which irradiated incrementally by subsequent plan in 8-10 fractions.The conformal index (CI) and homogeneity index (HI) of 95％ of prescribed dose over PTV were compared,while the dose distribution on ipsilateral lung and heart were evaluated.Results The CI of PTV by 6-field IMRT (0.66 ± 0.08) was higher than that of the2-field IMRT (0.53±0.10)(t=7.99,P＜0.05).The HI ofPTV by6-field IMRT (1.36±0.08)waslower than that of 2-field IMRT (2.19 ±0.78) (t =9.04,P ＜0.05).There was no statistical difference in V5,V10,V20 and V35 for ipsilateral lung and in D V35 and D for heart between two plans.Conclusions Compared with 2-field IMRT,6-field IMRT might have a better dose distribution on planning target volume(PTV) for chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer bulk-recurrence patients,butthere is no significant difference in dose-volume of ipsilateral lung and heart between two plans.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of Ti-TiO2 nanotubes with different diameters on the adhesion of fibroblast and osteoblast, and to find which diameter was more favorable for cells' respective adhesion.

METHODSPure titanium sheets were polished and then anodized at different potentials for 1 h with Ti as anode and Pt as cathode. TiO2 nanotubes formed at 1, 5, 10 and 20 V potentials served as experimental groups and polished pure titanium served as control group. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (Fe-SEM) was used to analyze the surface topography. Stained nucleus with Hoechst33342 were used to measure the cell adhesion. The cell shape on the sample surface were analyzed with Fe-SEM.

RESULTSTiO2 nanotube array of different inner diameters from 15 nm to 100 nm were grown on titanium sheets by anodization at potentials from 1 to 20 V. At 30, 60 and 120 min, fibroblast adhesion at nanotubes anodized at 5 V was (141 ± 9), (388 ± 14) and (489 ± 15) respectively, significantly less than any other nanotube surface at the same time (P < 0.01). Nanotubes anodized at 20 V had the least inhibitory effect for fibroblast adhesion with a number of (579 ± 14) at 120 min, and the cell shape was also inhibited. At 30, 60 and 120 min, osteoblast had a significant better adhesion on nanotubes formed at 5 V than it did on any other surface at the same time (P < 0.01), except the control group at 30 min, with the adhesion number of (198 ± 10), (431 ± 10) and (501 ± 10) respectively, and osteoblast had a abundant spread on nanotubes formed at 5 V; while osteoblast adhesion on nanotubes anodized at 20 V was (152 ± 11), (403 ± 9) and (465 ± 12) respectively, less than on any other nanotube surface within the same time (P < 0.05), and the cell shape on the surface changed to be more elongate.

CONCLUSIONSFibroblast adhesion is inhabited more or less on Ti-TiO2 nanotubes of different diameters. Nanotubes formed at 5 V have the most osteoblast adhesion, and inhibit fibroblast adhesion.

Objective To establish a tree shrew model of Fusarium solani keractitis by injecting Fusarium solani conidia into the corneal stroma.Methods Fusarium solani was inoculated into Sabouraud culture medium and incubated at 26℃ for 7 days.Fungal suspension was collected and the number of spores was adjusted to 1 × 1010 CFU /mL on the blood cell count plate.Forty healthy tree shrews were randomly divided into experimental group (n=30) and control group (n=10).In the experimental group, 50 μL of fungal spore suspension was injected into the cornea center with a 29G needle, and 50 μL saline was injected in the control group.The models were evaluated by anterior segment photography, in vivo confocal microscopy, histopathology, and corneal tissue culture.Results The fungal infiltration, the degree of edema of corneal epithelial and endothelial cells, and the number of mycelium were positively correlated with time.The number of infiltrating inflammatory cells, mainly, neutrophils, reached a peak on the 7th day after modeling.The mycelial growth was parallel to the stromal fibers.After the successful establishment of the model, the corneal tissue culture showed the growth of Fusarium solani.The successful rate of modeling was 86%.Conclusions The tree shrew model of Fusarium solani keratitis is established by injecting spores of Fusarium solani into the cornea.

Hepatic artery stricture (HAS) after liver transplantation can lead directly to transplanted liver function exhaustion and complications of biliary system. The early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for better prognosis. Doppler ultrasound is the first method of choice, and angiography can give further clear dignosis. The balloon dilatation is still effective for hepatic arterial stenosis. With the more adaptable usage of oronary stent, if possible, would reveal more promising result especially for tortuous stenotic hepatic artery. The vascular reconstruction or repeated liver transplantation is still the effective therapeutic methods.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association of HLA-Cw and -DRB1 alleles with psoriasis vulgaris,and to provide a clue to the study into the etiology of psoriasis.MethodsVenous blood samples were obtained from 81 patients with psoriasis vulgaris collected during 2006-2011 at the Department of Dermatology,First Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical College,as well as 100 age- and gender-matched healthy controls.Both the patients and controls are unrelated Mongolia in Inner Mongolia.PCR with sequence-specific primers(PCR-SSP) technique was used to genotype the HLA-Cw and DRB1 loci.ResultsThe patients with psoriasis vulgaris showed a significantly higher frequency of HLA-Cw*06(0.438 vs.0.175,Pc ＜ 0.01) and DRB1*07(0.241 vs.0.110,Pc ＜ 0.012),but a lower frequency of HLA-Cw*04(0.031 vs.0.150,Pc ＜ 0.01 ) and DRB1*04 (0.093 vs.0.235,Pc ＜ 0.01 ) than the healthy controls did.Increased frequencies of HLA-Cw*06 and DRB1*07 alleles were observed in patients with an onset before 40 years of age and those without a family history,together with a decreased frequency of HLA-Cw*04 and DRB1*04 alleles,compared with the healthy controls(Pc ＜ 0.05).The frequency of HLA-Cw*06 allele was significantly higher in patients with a positive family history and patients with an onset of no younger than 40 years of age than in the healthy controls (both Pc ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsHLA-Cw*06 and -DRB1*07 alleles may be susceptibility determinants to psoriasis vulgaris,while HLA-Cw*04 and -DRB1*04 alleles may be protective factors against psoriasis vulgaris,in Mongolia from Inner Mongolia.HLA-DRB1*07 allele may be a susceptibility gene for psoriasis,while HLA-Cw*04 and -DRB1*04 alleles may be protective factors against psoriasis,in patients with an onset before 40 years of age.

Objective To prepared cleavable PEG modified paclitaxel loaded liposome (CLP-PTX) and to study its capability for tumor targeting.Methods Liposome was prepared by film-ultrasonic method.Cellular uptake by HepG2 cells was explored.The anti-proliferation efficiency of CLP-PTX was evaluated by MTF assay.HepG2 cells were xenografted in athymic nude mice to establish the animal models,which were used to evaluate the anti-cancer effect.Results The mean size of CLP-PTX was (95±9.5) nm with the Zeta potential of (-3±1.05) mV,and the entrapment efficiency of PTX was 85.6％.The cellular uptake of liposomes with addition of cysteine (Cys)was 2.8 times as high as that in the absence of Cys,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Fluorescent microscopy qualitative observation demonstrated that the cells showed higher fluorescence intensity in the presence of Cys.The MTT assay showed the anti-proliferative activity against HepG2 cells of CLP-PTX depended on the paclitaxel concentration,and the inhibition ratio of CLP-PTX with addition of Cys was 1.6 times as high as that in the absence of Cys (P＜0.01),which was consistent with the cellular uptake results.Conclusions Comparing with paclitaxel,CLP-PTX inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells more persistently.Thus,CLP-PTX,as a new nanometer drug,has a special application value for tumor therapy.
