Objective To observe the effect of amniotic homogenate on closing holes in experimental rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and investigate its mechanism.Methods Forty rabbits were randomly divided into group A,B,C and D with 10 rabbits in each group.Group A and C were the treatment groups,and group B and D were the control groups.All eyes of rabbits underwent pars plana vitrectomy,retinectomy,and fluid-air exchange.The surface of the breaks was treated with 0.1 ml amniotic homogenate in experimental groups and 0.1 ml PBS in control groups.At the end of operation,20% SF6 was tamponaded and the retina reattaced.The animals were executed 14 (group A and B) and 28 days (group C and D) after the surgery.The tissue sections were observed by light microscope,electron microscope and immunocytochemistry method.Results Fourteen days after the surgery,the retina reattached in 6 eyes in group A (60%) and 2 eyes in group B (20%) (P=0.021),Twenty-eight days after the surgery,the retina reattached in 8 eyes in group C (80%) and 3 eyes in group D (30%) (P=0.046).The difference of the rate of retinal reattachment among the 4 groups were statistical significant (P<0.05).Light postoperative inflammation of ocular anterior segment was observed,which was controlled 3-5 days after treated with topical steroids.The result of light microscopy showed that the eyes in treatment groups had multilayer of fibroblast like cells around the retinal breaks,adhering to the choroid and retinal pigment epithelial cells.The proliferative cells around the retinal breaks obvious less in control groups than that in the treatment groups,and the retina could not adhere to the choroid.The results of electron microscopy were the same as that of light microscopy.Immunohistochemistry staining of the fibroblast-like cells revealed positve glial fibrillary acidic protein,which suggested that the proliferative cells around the retinal breaks were retinal glial cells.Conclusions Amniotic homogenate helps to seal retinal breaks and promote retinal reattachment by stimulating the proliferation of retinal glial cells around the breaks.

Objective To study the microstructural and ultrastructural changes of the epididymis of experimental varicocele in adolescent rats and it's role in infertility resulting from varicocele. Methods A varicocele model was performed in adolescent Sprague Dawley rats by partially ligating the left renal vein,the different segments of the epididymides of the rats were prepared for light and electron microscopy,the microstructure and ultrastructure of the epididymis were studied. Results There were lesions of different degree and segment specific changes in the epididymis with varicocele.Light microscopically,the main changes were interstitial vascular hyperemia,lymphocytes infiltration,sperm granuloma developed in the interstitial;The structure of the columnar epithelia was anomalies,epithelial cells degeneration,even the vacuoles appeared in the epithelial cells.The number of halo and clear cells increased.Inside the cavity of the duct,there were shedding cells,macrophage,deformed sperms and residual bodies.Electron microscopically,numerous large lysosomes,the residual bodies,the defected main cellular organelles(e.g. the endoplasmic reticulum,the mitochondrion and the Golgi complex etc.)and even large clear vacuoles were presented in the cytoplasm of principal cells.Clear cells were filled with lysosomes that made them frequently bulging into the lumen.The microvilli of the columnar epithelia were sparse and showed local defects.The thickness of the basal membrane increased.Conclusion\ The experimental varicocele in adolescent rats lead to microstructure and ultrastructure lesions in the epididymis,which may be another important reason of infertility resulting from varicocele.\;[

Objective:To understand the prevention and control progress of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis in Henan Province, to evaluate the effects of prevention and control measures, and provide a basis for adjusting prevention and control strategies.Methods:In 2019, a general survey was conducted in all registered drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis villages in Henan Province to monitor the basic conditions of water improvement, the fluoride content of drinking water and the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children aged 8-12 years. The control compliance (water fluoride content qualified and the detection rate of dental fluorosis of children ≤30%) status of the villages was analyzed, and calculate the compliance rate.Results:A total of 17 504 drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis villages were monitored, among them, 17 352 villages with water improvement and 152 villages without water improvement, with a water improvement rate of 99.1%. Among the 3 685 water improvement projects constructed, 3 448 were in normal operation, and the normal operation rate was 93.6%. There were 13 526 villages with qualified drinking water fluoride content, and the qualified rate of water fluorine was 77.3%; the actual beneficiary population was 11 011 000, and the population benefit rate was 90.1%. The qualified rate of water fluoride in the villages with and without water improvement was 77.9% (13 512/17 352) and 9.2% (14/152), respectively; the qualified rate of water fluoride in the villages with water improvement was significantly higher than that in the villages without water improvement (χ 2=400.58, P < 0.05). A total of 498 527 children of 8 to 12 years old were examined, 68 972 cases of dental fluorosis were detected, the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 13.84%, and the dental fluorosis index was 0.3. The number of villages meeting the control standard was 12 488, and the compliance rate was 71.3%. Conclusions:In Henan Province, the water improvement projects in the drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas have been basically implemented, and the disease has been effectively controlled. However, there is still a certain gap with the target of the "13th Five-Year Plan on National Prevention and Control of Endemic Diseases", and timely rectification is needed to ensure the effectiveness of the water improvement projects.
