In order to change the situations such as students’passivity and low enthusiasm in the traditional experimental teaching of Microbiology and improve students’comprehensive qualities,exploration and attempt on experimental teaching reforms including teaching contents,teaching modes,laboratory management and evaluation system of examination were done.Teaching practices showed that the normalized ex- periment syllabus based on the correct orientation of experimental teaching of Microbiology,the actualization of teaching mode of basic skill training-integrated experiment-designed experiment and the management of opening laboratory were effective measures in improving experimental teaching of Microbiology.

AIM:To observe the clinical effects of 23-gauge (23G) transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy for idiopathic macular hole.
METHODS: In this retrospective study, 28 eyes of 28 consecutive patients who underwent 23 - gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy for idiopathic macular hole between January 2013 and October 2013 in our hospital were evaluated. The follow-up time was 3-12mo. The operation effects were analyzed.
RESULTS:The macular hole was closed in 27 eyes of 28 eyes which underwent 23G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy and not closed in 1 eye after surgery. Best-corrected visual acuity at postoperative 1, 3mo was significantly improved compared to pre-operation (χ2=8-65, P=0. 003;χ2=10. 33, P=0. 001). The macular hole was closed as shown by OCT. Intraoperative incision was sutured in 5 cases ( 18%) . There was no statistically significant difference in intraocular pressure between pre-operation and post - operation. No post - operative complications such as endophthalmitis, retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage came up.
CONCLUSION: 23G transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy is observed to be safe and effective technique in the treatment of macular hole. It is therefore our preferred system for straightforward macular surgery.

OBJECTIVE: Polymorphism of interleukin-23 receptor (IL-23R) gene was found being related with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. For the terminal differentiation of IL-17-producing effecter T-helper cells in vivo, the IL-23R gene is very important. As proved recently, Th17 cells might have a great influence to the pathogenesis of allergic airways disease. Our intention was paid to find any association between the polymorphisms in the IL-23R gene and allergic rhinitis(AR) in Chinese population. METHOD: A group of patients was involved in a case-control comparison, consisted of 239 AR patients and 271 control Chinese subjects. The study claimed to take some blood samples for DNA extraction and select 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in IL-23R individually genotyped by the PCR-RFLP method. RESULT: Comparison with the controls, a great growing prevalence of the homozygous rs7517847 GG genotype and G allele appeared in AR patients (P < 0.05, respectively). Besides, a great increased frequency of the GGA haplotypes was presented in AR patients in comparison with the controls (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results demonstrated a important association pattern between polymorphisms in IL-23R and AR in Chinese population. Between rs7517847 in an SNP of IL-23R and AR, a great association was identified.

? AIM: To observe the efficacy and safety of the phacoemulsification combined with goniosynechialysis and the phacoemulsification combined with trabeculectomy for angle-closure glaucoma ( ACG ) with different closure conditions accompanied with cataract.?METHODS:A total of 65 patients (70 eyes) with primary ACG accompanied with cataract were selected from those admitted in our hospital and were given phacoemulsification with goniosynechialysis ( group A, 30 patients with 33 eyes ) and the phacoemulsification with trabeculectomy ( group B, 35 patients with 37 eyes ) according to the conditions of the closed anterior angle, respectively. The two groups of patients were observed for preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , vision, anterior chamber depth, and complications, and were followed up for 6. 5mo (6-8mo) on average.?RESULTS: Mean postoperative IOP in either group A or group B at 1mo after operation was of statistically significant difference, compared with mean preoperative IOP (P<0. 05). Postoperative 1-week vision in each group was of statistically significant difference, compared with preoperative vision (P<0. 05). Postoperative 1-month mean anterior chamber depth in each group was of statistically significant difference, compared with preoperative anterior chamber depth (P<0. 05). There were no significant differences between the two groups on postoperative 1-month mean anterior chamber depth ( P>0. 05) and postoperative complications (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSION: Clinical doctors can choose appropriate treatment according to different conditions of the closed anterior angle in patients with primary angle- closure glaucoma.
