Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) has evoken generally social attention now,and correlated reports point that prematurity and low birth weight could be the foundation of ROP,and irrationable oxygen therapy could be the significantly causative factor for some premature infants with shorter gestational age,maldevelopment and low birth weight.The irrationable oxygen therapy includes aspiration of hyperxia,long-time aspiration of oxygen and striking fluctuation of oxygen partial pressure.The review would summarize the relationship between retinopathy of prematurity and oxygen therapy according to lately research reports,and search for the certain cause,pathogenesy and the method of prevention and cure of ROP.

Objective To describe the techniques of fluoroscopy-guided foam sclerotherapy for lower extremity varicosities, and evaluate the feasibility, safety and curative effects of it. Methods From October 2008 to December 2009, a total of 21 legs in 16 patients with lower extremity varicosities received radiological-guided foam sclerotherapy. They were enrolled in this study. Sodium morrhuate was foamed with by the filling-defects technique under fluoroscopy guidance. Postoperative compression was maintained for 2 weeks. Clinical effect was assessed as full success, partial success and no success. Complications were classified as minor or serious. Results The technical procedure was successful in all foam sclerotherapies for 21 legs. And, a single sclerotherapy session was adequate for all legs. The median follow-up period was 6. 0 months after treatment, ranged from 3.0 to 17.0 months. In this period, Clinical effect was assessed as full success for 17 legs (81.0%) and partial success for 4 legs ( 19.0% ). All patients presented selflimiting minor complications, including cordlike subcutaneous indurations along the treated veins (21 cases), skin hyperpigmentation in 11 legs (8 cases), local pain in 7 legs (6 cases) and superficial thrombophlebitits in one leg ( 1 case). No serious complications or systemic events occurred. Conclusion Fluoroscopy-guided foam sclerotherapy was a feasible, safe and effective treatment for lower extremity varicosities.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non - coding RNA(lncRNA)in neonatal rats with hypoxic - ischemic brain damage(HIBD). Methods SD rats of 10 postnatal days were divided into the sham -operated control and the hypoxic - ischemic(HI)group. At 24 h after HI,the animals were sacrificed. HE staining was used to assess histopathological damage. Microarray was used to detect the expression of lncRNA and mRNA in hypoxic -ischemic and sham control brain. Real - time PCR was used to verify the microarray result. The differentially expressed mRNA was analyzed by gene ontology(GO),pathway and coding - noncoding RNA co - expression(CNC)network analysis. Results HE staining showed that cells in HI brains became swollen and disordered with ambiguous cell struc-ture. Microarray data demonstrated that 322 lncRNAs and 375 mRNAs were significantly altered in the neonatal brains following hypoxic - ischemic injury compared with sham control(P ﹤ 0. 05). The real - time PCR results agreed with those of the microarray. GO analysis showed that the most enriched biological process associated with the upregulated mRNA had response to wounding,whereas the biological process mostly enriched among the downregulated mRNA was so-matic stem cell division. Pathway analysis indicated that upregulated mRNA was primarily corresponded with cytokine -cytokine receptor interaction pathway and that downregulated mRNA mainly correlated to axon guidance pathway. CNC network analysis demonstrated that 177 lncRNAs were correlated to the expression of mRNA involved in inflammation and cell death(P ﹤0. 05). Conclusions HI injury significantly influences cerebral lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in the neonatal rat brains. Deregulated lncRNAs might contribute to the pathogenesis of HIBD via interacting with mRNA.

Objective To analyze the echinococcosis surveillance results in Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from 2017 to 2022, so as to provide insights into formulation of echinococcosis control measures in the prefecture. Methods Villagers were randomly sampled using a multistage sampling method from class I and II echinococcosis endemic counties in Bayingolin Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture from 2017 to 2022 for detection of human echinococcosis, while all patients undergoing ultrasound examinations in medical institutions in class III endemic counties received active echinococcosis screening. In addition, livestock in centralized slaughterhouses or slaughtering sites were screened for echinococcosis using the palpation and necropsy method, and fresh domestic dog feces samples were collected from randomly selected dog owners in each administrative village for detection of Echinococcus copro-antigen in domestic dogs. The trends in detection of human and livestock echinococcosis, detection of newly diagnosed human echinococcosis cases and detection of Echinococcus coproantigen in domestic dogs were analyzed in Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture from 2017 to 2022. Results The mean detection rate of human echinococcosis was 0.13% (540/407 803) in Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture from 2017 to 2022, which appeared a tendency towards a decline over years (χ²_trend = 1 217.21, P < 0.001), and the highest detection of newly diagnosed echinococcosis cases was seen in Hejing County (0.28%, 191/67 865). The detection of livestock echinococcosis appeared a tendency towards a decline over years from 2017 to 2022 (χ²_trend = 147.02, P < 0.001), with the highest detection rate seen in Hejing County (3.44%, 86/2 500), and the detection of Echinococcus copro-antigen in domestic dogs appeared a tendency towards a decline over years from 2017 to 2022 (χ²_trend = 302.46, P < 0.001), with the highest detection rate in Qiemo County (2.74%, 118/4 313). Conclusions The detection of human and livestock echinococcosis and dog feces antigens Echinococcus copro-antigen in domestic dogs all appeared a tendency towards a decline in Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from 2017 to 2022; however, there is still a high echinococcosis transmission risk in local areas. Sustainable integrated echinococcosis control is required in Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture.

Malignancies are diseases resulting from an imbalance of cell growth and proliferation， endangering human health and life. Currently， there is no clinically effective treatment for tumors. Tumor cells may alter cell adhesion and tumor cell migration and movement by degrading the extracellular matrix， generating vascular factors， affecting epithelial-mesenchymal transformation， or altering the tumor microenvironment. The mechanisms which lead to multidrug resistance （MDR） are the regulation of membrane proteins， apoptosis-regulated gene expression， enzyme-mediated multidrug resistance， DNA damage repair， and epithelial-stromal transformation， resulting in ineffective treatment of tumors. Therefore， the search for natural， safe， and effective chemosensitizers has become a critical part in tumor research. Due to the increasing use of Chinese medicine in cancer treatment， researchers have conducted more extensive studies on its monomers and compounds. In addition， the mechanisms of Chinese medicine in inhibiting tumor invasion and metastasis and reversing drug resistance are gradually unraveled. The monomers and compounds of Chinese medicine may inhibit tumor invasion， metastasis， and drug resistance by enhancing the sensitivity of chemotherapy drugs and adjuvant properties. Furthermore， they can also improve the tolerance of patients to chemotherapy drugs， relieve side effects of chemotherapy， reduce the chance of recurrence， and prolong the life of patients. The development of traditional Chinese medicine plays an important role in reducing tumor recurrence and metastasis， reversing drug resistance， prolonging the prognosis of cancer patients， improving their quality of life， and prolonging their survival time. Currently， various types of Chinese medicines have been proven to be capable of reducing tumor invasion and metastasis， and reversing drug resistance. The present article reviewed development and findings of Chinese medicine as an anti-tumor invasion， anti-metastasis， and anti-tumor resistance therapy in recent years， in order to provide ideas for future research on anti-tumor effect of active components in Chinese medicine.
