Most patients with allergic conjunctivitis in children are vernal keratoconjunctivitis.Dry eye accompanied with al- lergic conjunctivitis in children is correlated with the decline of tear film stability.However,tear film stability decline is correlated with eosinophilic activation and concomitant release of inflammatory mediators.Moreover,conjunctival epithelial,goblet cells and tear film are damaged,then dry eye occur.Main symptom of dry eye in children is twinkling frequency increasing,followed by eye itch,eye red and photophobia.When allergic conjunctivitis in children is diagnosed,dry eye should be considered at the same time.Proper manage- ment for those allergic conjunctivitis can decrease ocular surface damages.

Objective To explore the effect of ischemia-reperfusion injury on the retinal functions of rats. Methods Seventy Wistar rats were selected, 20 of which were selected randomly and divided into two groups (control group and single-irrigated group). The rats were anesthetized and their anterior chambers of the right eyes were cannulated with a 7-gauge needle connected to a reservoir containing ringers balanced salt solution, which was maintained at the same level of the eye for 1 hour. After that, ERG was recorded in both eyes of all rats. All the left rats were divided randomly into 10 groups and they were treated as the single-irrigated group. Retinal ischemia was induced by raising the reservoir to a height of 150 mm Hg. One hour later except the single ischemia group, all of the groups resumed perfusion after 3,6,12,and 24 hours and 3,5,7,14,and 21 days separately. ERG was recorded in both eyes of all rats. Results There was no difference in the results of ERG between left and right eyes in either the control group or the single-irrigated group. All the waves of ERG vanished in the single-ischemia group after 1 hour. In the ischemia-reperfusion groups, the waves of ERG partly recovered and the amplitude reduced persistently and progressively. Conclusion Ischemia-reperfusion injury may affect the function of the retina persistently and progressively.

AIM To investigate protective effects and mechanism of tanshinones on ischemia-like injury models. METHODS Six ischemia models including hypoxia, hypoglucose, oxidant injury, caffeine injury, nitric oxide neurotoxicity and excitatory amino acid injury were used to assay the anti-ischemic roles of tanshinones in cultured primary cortex neurons. The changes of injuried cortex neurons were observed by the way of morphological examination, and live neurons of crystal violet staining were measured according to absorbent index. RESULTS it was found that tanshinones possessed obvious protective effects on primary neurons in injury models by the way of morphological e~nation. Crystal violet staining also indicated that tanshinones increased number of live neurons in injury models significantly. The protective effects of tanshinones on models of oxidant injury, caffeine injury and NMDA injury were superior to other injury models. CONCLUSIONS 83.0 ?mol? L- 1 tanshinones protected rat cortex cells fm all injury models effectively in vitro.
