1.The practice of teaching pediatric retinal diseases based on the RetCam
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2016;15(4):426-429
With the improvement of clinical and scientific research level of pediatric retinal diseases in China,teaching in pediatric retinal diseases for medical students and residents has become increasingly important.Because infants cannot cooperate in ophthalmic examinations,this part becomes a difficult point in clinical teaching and practice.By using the RetCam,a wide-field retinal imaging system,infant's retinal images can display in real time on screen and images and videos can be recorded and reviewed after examination finished.By setting up teaching target reasonably,arranging teaching contents scientifically,and using teaching method properly,we applied multimedia-assisted instruction in teaching pediatric retinal diseases based on RetCam and enhanced teaching effect.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion for dysmenorrhea due to deficiency cold. Methods: A total of 70 patients with dysmenorrhea who met the inclusion criteria were randomized into a mild moxibustion group and a herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion group by the random number table, with 35 cases in each group. Shenque (CV 8), Zhongji (CV 3) and bilateral Zigong (EX-CA 1) were selected for both groups. The treatment continued for 3 menstrual cycles. The visual analog scale (VAS) and COX menstrual symptom scale (CMSS) were scored in both groups before treatment, after treatment and at the end of the 3rd menstrual cycle after treatment. The clinical efficacy was evaluated at the end of the 3rd menstrual cycle after treatment. Results: After treatment, the clinical efficacy of the herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion group had the tendency to be superior to that of the mild moxibustion group, while there was no statistically significant difference in the overall efficacy between the two groups (P>0.05). The VAS and CMSS scores after treatment and at the follow-up were significantly lower than those before treatment in both groups (all P<0.05). At the follow-up, the VAS scores in both groups had no significant intra-group differences from those after treatment (both P>0.05). The CMSS scores in both groups were significantly lower than those after treatment (both P<0.05). The VAS scores at the follow-up of both groups had no statistical differences from those after treatment (both P>0.05). After treatment, the CMSS score in the herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion group was significantly lower than that in the mild moxibustion group (P<0.05). At the follow-up, there were no statistical differences in the CMSS score between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: The herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion has the same therapeutic efficacy for dysmenorrhea as the mild moxibustion; the two moxibustion methods can significantly improve the concomitant symptoms of dysmenorrhea, and the herbal cake-partitioned moxibustion is little better.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of thunder-fire moxibustion for hypomenorrhea after induced abortion. Methods: A total of 74 patients with hypomenorrhea after induced abortion were randomized into two groups, with 37 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional hormone sequential therapy, and the observation group was treated with thunder-fire moxibustion. The course of treatment was 3 menstrual cycles. The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom scores, menstrual volume, endometrial thickness and the sex hormone levels were observed before and after treatment. The clinical efficacy was compared after treatment. Results: The total effective rate in the observation group and the control group was 91.4% and 73.5%, respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, the TCM symptom scores in both groups decreased significantly (all P<0.05), and the scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The menstrual volume, endometrial thickness and each sex hormone level of the patients in both groups were significantly improved after treatment (all P<0.05), and the improvements in the observation group were more significant than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Thunder-fire moxibustion can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients with hypomenorrhea after induced abortion; it can increase menstrual volume and endometrial thickness, and regulate the sex hormone levels, producing a better curative effect than the conventional hormone sequential therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of subretinal fluid drainage combined with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs in the treatment of severe exudative retinal detachment Coats disease.Methods Thirteen patients (13 eyes) with 3B Coats' disease diagnosed at the Eye Center of Tongren Hospital were included in the study.The participants were aged from 1 year to 11 years with a mean age of (4.15 ± 2.99) years.The visual acuity was no light perception in 1 case,from light perception to counting finger in 7 cases,from 0.01 to 0.1 in 2 cases,and could not be measured due to young in 3 cases.Patients underwent retinal fluid drainage combined with intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR,0.5 mg,0.05 mL) at the pars plana of ciliary body,and with retinal laser photocoagulation or cryotherapy according to the retinal peripheral vascular activity.During the follow-up,the visual acuity,intraocular pressure,slit lamp,indirect ophthalmoscope and color ophthalmoscope were examined and observed.The abnormal blood vessel change,absorption of subretinal fluid,retinal reattachment and complication were observed.Results Two subretinal fluid drainage were performed in 3 cases,one subretinal fluid drainage in 10 cases.Six cases were combined with two intravitreal injections,4 cases with three intravitral injection,3 cases with intravitreal injection for more than three times.Five cases were treated with simple photocoagulation,3 cases with simple retinal cryotherapy,and 5 cases with laser combined with cryotherapy.In 13 patients,the visual acuity was improved in 2 cases,unchanged in 8 cases,and could not be measured due to young in 3 cases.Eight cases had complete retinal reattachment.No significant postoperative complications occurred during follow-up,such as endophthalmitis,retinal hole and vitreous hemorrhage.Conclusion Subretinal fluid drainage combined with intravitreal injection is an effective method for severe 3B stage Coats disease.

Hide melting presents itself as one of the most critical processes in the production of donkey-hide gelatin. Here a NIR-based method was established for the rapid analysis of in-process hide melting solutions as well as for end-point determination of this process. Near infrared (NIR) spectra of hide melting solutions were collected in transflective mode. With the contents of total nitrogen determined by the Kjeldahl method as reference values, partial least squares regression (PLSR) was employed to build calibration models between NIR spectra and total nitrogen. Model parameters including wavelength range and PLS factors were optimized to achieve best model performance. Based on the contents of total nitrogen predicted by calibration model, end point of hide melting was determined. The constructed PLS model gave a high correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.991 3 and a root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) of 0.807 g x L(-1). With the predicted total nitrogen and predefined limit, decisions concerning the proper times of melting were made. This research demonstrated that NIR transflectance spectroscopy could be used to expeditiously determine the contents of total nitrogen which was subsequently chosen as the indictor for determining the end-point of hide melting. The proposed procedure may help avoid unnecessary raw material or energy consumption.
