Objective To summarize our experience in managing cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) rhinorrhea. Methods 82 cases of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea treated in our department from 1995 to 1999 were reviewed retrospectively. 61 were male and 21 were female.They ranged from 2 to 82 years old.CSF leak was caused by trauma in 43 cases,iatrogenic injury in 18 cases and spontaneous leak occurred in 21 cases. Results 36 cases underwent surgical repair.The closure rate was 86 11%.Otorhinolaryngologists underwent 25 cases,and 23 cases succeeded (92%).The department of neurology underwent 11 cases,and 8 cases succeeded (72 7%). Conclusions The repair of CSF leak through transnasal extracranial approach can obtain better therapeutic results,especially through intranasal endoscopy.

Objective To investigate whether the neutrophil serine proteinase 3 (PR 3),a specific autoantigen of C ANCA,could induce human fetal glomerular endothelial cell apoptosis in vitro .Methods PR 3 was isolated from polymorphonuclear leukocytes obtained from C ANCA positive children with SLE.The cultured glomerular endothelial cells from human fetal kidneys were treated with PR 3 and apoptosis was assessed by different methods including the propidium iodide staining,DNA fragmentation analysis,and morphology observation.Results Percentage of apoptotic cells significantly increased ( P

Objective To investigate the changes of Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity in the proximal tubules (PT) of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) and the correlation of PT Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity and endogenous digitalis-like substance (EDLS). Methods Female Wistar rats were developed a rat model of T2DM and then divided into 3 groups after injected stretozotocin, that is, 5 weeks group, 7 weeks group and 9 weeks group. The PT were microdissection by freehand. Na~+,K~+ -ATPase activity of PT were determined by liquid scintillation counter. Serum EDLS and insulin were determined using radioimmunoassay. Results Compared with control group, T2DM rats were associated with hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance; Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT in T2DM rats was significantly increased, and there was no significant difference among 3 sub-groups. Serum EDLS level was significantly enhanced in T2DM, however, EDLS levels were no significant difference among 3 sub-groups. Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT had negative relation with EDLS level in serum. Conclusion Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT in T2DM rats is increased and EDLS level in serum decrease may play a important role.

Background The filtration surgery is the main method of treating glaucoma,which usually fails due to postoperative scarring.The study about application of anti-scarring agents in filtration surgery is a hotspot.Objective This study was to investigate whether topical administration of hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) could be used to prevent postoperative scarring in after experimental glaucoma filtration surgery,and explore its optimal dose.Metbods Trabeculectomy was performed on the right eyes of 40 New Zealand white rabbits to establish the trabeculectomy animal models.The rabbits were then randomized into normal saline solution group,0.3 g/L mitomycin C(MMC) group,0.3 g/L HCPT group and 1.0 g/L HCPT group based on the intraoperative topical drugs using randomized number table method.The different drugs above-mentioned were put beneath the conjunctival flap and scleral flap for 5 minutes during the surgery.The intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured before and day 1,4,7,14,21 and 28 after the surgery with Icare tonometer,and the filtering area and height were measured under the slit lamp microscope to assess the efficacy of various drugs.The adverse effects were evaluated by examining the responses of the ocular anterior segment and retinal change.The specimens at operative zone were obtained in 7,14 and 28 days after surgery with the size 5 mm×5 mm for the hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson trichrome staining to estimate the anti-fibrosis effect of various drugs,and to evaluate the survival time of functional bleb.Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare the survival time of functional bleb of different groups.The use and care of the animals complied with the Regulation for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Committee.Results The IOP was significantly different in the rabbits from different groups among various time points (Fgroup =20.79,P =0.00 ; Ftime =85.34,P =0.00 ; Fiion =2.13,P =0.01).From 1 day through 28 days after operation,the IOPs in MMC group and 1.0 g/L HCPT group were significantly lower than those before operation (all at P＜0.05).The survival time of functional bleb of different groups was (11.3 ±2.8),(19.5 ±2.4),(13.3 ±2.2) and (20.2 ± 4.5) days,respectively,showing a significant difference (log rank =11.92,P ＜ 0.01),with a considerable prolong in the 1.0 g/L HCPT group.No significant change was found in the bleb area and height among the four groups within 7 days after operation,but postoperative 7,14,28 days,the area and height values of bleb were significantly smaller in the normal saline solution group and 0.3 g/L HCPT group compared with the MMC group and 1.0 g/L HCPT group (all at P ＜ 0.05).Histopathological examination showed loosen subconjunctival tissue,less inflammatory cells and weaker collagenous fibrillary staining in the MMC group and 1.0 g/L HCPT group in comparison with the normal saline solution group and 0.3 g/L HCPT group.Conclusions The topical administration of 1.0 g/L HCPT inhibit the inflammatory response and collagen fibrosis and therefore prolong the survival time of functional bleb after glaucomatous filtering surgery.

Objective To examine the mRNA and protein expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) and fatty acid binding protein-4 (FABP-4) in placenta, and to investigate their correlation with the prognosis of pre- eclampsia. Methods The data of 177 women who delivered from January 2013 to December 2015 in Chinese People′ s Liberation Army No.94 Hospital were collected. Among them, 60 cases were term pregnancy and not in labor (TN); 46 cases were term pregnancy with preeclampsia and not in labor (TPE); 42 cases were preterm pregnancy and not in labor (PN); 29 cases were preterm pregnancy with pre-eclampsia and not in labor (PPE). Real-time PCR and western blot were used to examine the PPAR and FABP-4 mRNA expression and protein expression in placentas. And linear correlation was used to analyze the relationship between PPAR and FABP-4 protein expression and the prognosis of pre-eclampsia. Results (1)Real-time PCR showed that:① PPAR-α, PPAR-β mRNA expression were not statistically different between placentas from TN and TPE (P>0.05), but PPAR-γ mRNA level in TPE (0.59±0.17) was significantly lower than that in TN (0.81±0.19, P<0.01). However, FABP-4 mRNA level in TPE (0.70±0.23) was significantly higher than that in TN (0.43±0.18, P<0.01). ②There were no statistical differences in PPAR-α, PPAR-β mRNA expression level between PN and PPE (P>0.05). However,PPAR-γ mRNA in the PPE group (0.33±0.14) was significantly lower than that in PN (0.52±0.16, P<0.01), and FABP-4 mRNA level in the PPE group (0.80±0.29) was significantly higher than in the PN group (0.63±0.22, P<0.01).(2)Western-blot showed the same tendency as the mRNA results. ①There were no statistical differences in the protein expression of PPAR-α, PPAR-β, not in term groups(TN and TPE), nor in premature groups (PN and PPE). PPAR-γ protein level in the TPE group (0.46 ± 0.17) was significantly lower than that in TN (0.65±0.20, P<0.01) and FABP-4 protein level in the TPE group (0.60± 0.19) was significantly higher than that in the TN group (0.50±0.21, P<0.05). ②The PPAR-γ protein level in the PPE group (0.30±0.16) was significantly lower than that in the PN group (0.61±0.16, P<0.05), while the FABP-4 protein expression in the PPE group (0.58±0.19) was significantly higher than that in the PN group (0.40±0.19, P<0.05).(3)Linear correlation showed that:①PPAR-γ protein expression correlated negatively with FABP-4 protein expresssion [P<0.01, R2=0.12 in the term groups(TN+TPE), R2=0.15 in the premature groups(PN+PPE)]. ②PPAR-γ protein expression correlated negatively with blood pressure recovery time, 24-hour urinary protein quantification and blood lipid recovery time (P<0.01, R2=0.37,0.35,0.18). FABP-4 protein expression correlated positively with lipid recovery time and blood cholesterol concentrations (P<0.01, R2=0.13,0.25). Conclusions The expression of PPAR-γ decreases in placentas from patients with pre-eclampsia, while the expression of FABP-4 increases. The expression of FABP-4 correlates negatively with the expression of PPAR-γ, and both are associated with the prognosis of pre-eclampsia.
