AIM: To evaluate posterior capsular opacification (PCO) with hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL, Sensar AR40e) and silicone IOLs after cataract surgery, to use a software program developed to provide an objective assessment of the amount of PCO in the digital images of the posterior capsule to quantify PCO. METHODS: Ninety-eight eyes underwent standardized phacoemulsification and "in the bag" IOL placement, were randomized to receive a three piece lens of hydrophobic acrylic or silicone, but lens materials were different in one case. In year 1 and 2, digitized retro-illumination images were taken from the posterior capsule. Images were analyzed by POCO software program, removing the Purkinje light reflexes, contrast enhancement, filtering to enhance low-density PCO. RESULTS: The percentage of PCO were 0.32±0.13 of hydrophobic acrylic IOLs in year 1, compared with 0.39±0.17 of silicone (P=0.37). In year 2, the percentage of PCO were 0.42±0.20 with hydrophobic acrylic IOLs and 0.34±0.18 with silicone IOLs (P=0.50). Of those patients with PCO in year 1 and 2, severity grades were 0.50±0.30 and 0.82±0.58 of hydrophobic acrylic cases, compared with 0.63±0.35 and 0.55±0.35 of patients with silicone IOLs (P=0.52,P=0.69) with no statistical significance.CONCLUSION: The POCO system is capable of producing an objective and repeatable measure of PCO that is relevant to assessing techniques of PCO prevention.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow stem cells can be induced to differentiate into vascular endothelial cells and facilitate establishment of compensatory circulation, so as so improve blood supply of ischemic tissues. OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy of autologous peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) transplantation in the treatment of diabetic vascular disorder in the lower extremities and diabetic feet. DESIGN: Wuhan Central Hospital, Wuban, Hubei Province, China. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 89 patients with type 2 diabetic vascular disorder in the lower extremity were enrolled from Department of Endocrinology in Wuhan Central Hospital from July 2005 to may 2007. All cases matched the criteria of diabetes by WHO in 1999, and complicated with diabetic peripheral angiopathy and diabetic feet. They included 61 males and 28 females, aged 45-90 years, with an average age of 67. Lesion was mainly located in lower extremities, 54 patients with foot ulcers while 8 patients with gangrene. All the patients signed the informed consents, and the experiment was approved by the hospital ethics committee. Recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor was purchased from China Kunpeng Bio-Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.METHODS: Stem cell mobilization: 89 patients all received recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor, 500-600 μg per day by hypodermic injection for 5 days to mobilize stem cells. On the fifth day. PBSCs were collected with a total amount of 83-103mL. The number of mononuclear cells was (1.86-3.39)×1011L-1,while the proportion of CD34 positive cells was 0.55%-1.36%. PBSCs transplantation: After patients were treated with intravenous anesthesia, PBSCs were injected into the ischemic lower extremity and foot intramuscularly at 3cm×3cm distance. The clinical and laboratory findings were monitored from the first day to the sixth month.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The patients were evaluated before transplantation, and in the first, third and sixth months after transplantation, including affected limb pain, cool feeling, intermittent claudication, ankle brachial index (ABI), limb skin temperature and deep feeling. Color Doppler. CT and digital subtraction angiography were applied to detect lower extremities morphous.RESULTS: All 89 included patients were involved in the result analysis. Scores of clinical symptom: The affected limb pain, cool feeling, and intermittent claudication were all improved significantly after PBSCs transplantation (P<0.05),and the improvement was more evident with time extension. ABI: After PBSCs transplantation, ABI in patients increased significantly by different degrees with the time extension(P0.05). Skin temperature and deep feeling: Limb skin temperature increased significantly after transplantation (P<0.05), and deep feeling seemed to be improved, but the change was not significant(P0.05). Imaging determination: There was no obvious change after transplantation checking of lower extremity by color Doppler. But CT and digital subtraction angiography results showed lower extremities in 23 patients had new collateral vessels formation with different degrees.CONCLUSION: Autologous PBSCs transplantation can increase blood flow of lower extremities in patients with diabetic vascular disorder in the lower extremities and diabetic feet, and promote the angiogenesis in lower extremity of partial patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different health management on adults with prediabetes.MethodsA total of 1182 pre-diabetics were enrolled in this prospective observation study and assigned to one-by-one interview group,in situ education group,communicative interview group and control group.Three intervention groups received life style intervention ( including health education and risk factor control) for 2 years.Analysis ofvariance,x2 test or q test were used for data analysis.ResultsAfteryear intervention,fasting plasma glucose (FPG)and 2 h plasma glucose of the intervention groups were significantly decreased ( P ＜ 0.05 ).FPG of the one-by-one interview group and the in situ education group was significantly lower than that of the communicative interview group at 6 months ( P ＜ 0.05 ). At 24months,FPG of the one-by-one interview group was lower than that of the in situ education group (P ＜0.05).The percentage of participants who showed appropriate blood glucose control was increased in the intervention groups. In addition,blood pressure,triglyceride,cholesterol,creatinine and body weight of those in the intervened groups were significantly improved compared with the control group ( all P ＜ 0.05 ),although electrocardiogram results and arteriosclerosisshowed nosignificant changes(P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Health management may contribute to life style change and hypertension control of prediabetics.Furthermore,in situ education may be the most effective life style interventions.
