AIM: To observe the effect and safety of applying mitomycin C ( MMC ) in laser - assisted subepithelial keratomileusis ( LASEK) for extreme high myopia.
●METHODS:LASEK with 0. 02% MMC was performed in 364 eyes of 182 patients with extreme high myopia and spherical equivalent was-9. 0 to-10. 25 D. All the patients were divided into four groups according to the applying time of MMC. The time in Group l was 10s, in GroupⅡwas 25s, in Group Ⅲ was 40s and 55s in Group lV. Uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA ) , residual refraction, Haze, healing time of corneal epithelium, density and variant index of corneal endothelium was examined in these patients and follow-up 6mo.
●RESULTS:At 6mo after surgery, 76. 3%, 94. 0%, 92. 3%and 93. 8% of the patients in Group l, GroupⅡ, GroupⅢ and Group lV respectively achieved the UCVA better than 15/20. There was significant difference of UCVA between Group l and the other three groups (χ2=19. 610, P=0. 000). Proportion of the residual refraction between ± 0. 5D in Group l (78. 8%) was lower than other groups (95. 2% in Group Ⅱ, 93. 3% in Group Ⅲ, and 92. 7% in GroupⅣ) at 6mo and there was significant difference (χ2=16. 329, P=0. 001). Group l had more Haze statistically than the other three groups at 6mo postoperatively ( Hc=50. 110, P=0. 000). The healing time of cornea epithelium seem to be no statistically difference between each group at 6mo (χ2=11. 611, P>0. 05). MMC had no influence on the density of corneal endothelium in each group postoperatively (P>0. 05), there were 3071. 3±284. 4 cells/mm2 in Group l, 3 105. 6 ± 337. 8 cells/mm2 in Group Ⅱ, 2 986. 3 ± 304. 1cells/mm2 in Group Ⅲ and 3 088. 7 ± 372. 5 cells/mm2 in Group lV respectively. The variant index of corneal endothelium calculated in each group at 6mo after surgery was 24. 72 ± 6. 52, 22. 93 ± 6. 74, 24. 38 ± 6. 63 and 23. 14±7. 22 repectively, compare with that preoperatively there were no statistically differences (P>0. 05).
●CONCLUSION: For extreme high myopia LASEK with 0. 02% MMC is effective and safe. The MMC applying time of 25s in LASEK can effectively reduce Haze after surgery and decrease potential complications.

AlM:To make a analysis of visual quality of iris location guided femtosecond laser assisted in situ keratomi ( LASlK) and iris location guided mechanical sub-bowman keratomileusis ( SBK) for high myopia treatment.METHODS:Femtosecond LASlK ( study group ) was performed in 102 eyes of 51 patients with high myopia and 70 eyes of 35 patients were received mechanical SBK ( control group ) from January to October 2013. The spherical refraction of all the patients was from -6. 00 ~-9. 50D. Best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) of the patients was ≥1. 0. Uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA), BCVA, thickness of cornea flap, contrast sensitivity function ( CSF ) and senior ocular aberration were examined in these patients and follow-up was 1a.RESULTS: At 1a after surgery 94. 1% UCVA in study group reached ≥1. 0 and there was 94. 3% in control group. There was no significant difference between two groups (P>0. 05). Residual refraction of study group was-0. 08±0. 10 D and control group was -0. 10±0. 07 D. There was no significant difference of residual refraction between two groups (P>0. 05). C12 , C8 of senior ocular aberration and RMSH in study group was less than control group, amplification:0.1642±0.0519 and 0.2229±0.0382 (t=8. 077, P<0. 05), while C7 was equal in two groups:0. 1583 ±0.1921 and 0. 1436±0. 1536 (t=0. 556, P>0. 05). C8 was 0. 0950±0. 069 and 0. 1858±0. 095 (t=7. 261, P<0. 05). RMSh was 0. 3711 ± 0. 0847 and 0. 5622 ± 0. 1033 ( t= 12. 801, P<0. 05). CSF was no significant difference between study group and control group (P>0. 05). CONCLUSlON: Femtosecond LASlK and mechanical SBK is effective for high myopia. Compared to mechanical SBK, femtosecond LASlK shows more advantages in the senior ocular aberration and visual quality. The cornea flap is more regular from central to peripheral area with femtosecond laser.

Objective To advocate the importance of central venous access(CVA), and compare the technical characteristics and clinical values of central venous access constructed trans right subclavian vein (TSCV) and trans the right internal jugular vein (TIJV). Methods Between March 1999 and June 2001, we operated 348 cases of CVA, including 270 TSCV and 78 TIJV. The durations of reserving the accesses were 13～75 day, average 23 days. Results In 270 TSCV, 268 cases were successful, the successful rate was 99%. 11 cases had critical complications, including: 2 cases of pneumothorax, 1 access was constructed into subclavian artery, 3 accesses obstruction, 3 accesses of anomalous transfusion caused by catheter shift, infection of puncture site 2 cases. In 78 TIJV, 75 cases were successful, the successful rate were 96%. The critical complications occurred in 1 case.Conclusions The CVA is safe, easy, and practical, which would provide the special and immediate medical therapy for the tumorous and critical patients. In emergency, the TSCV procedure would be the choice.

Objective To study the active secondary metabolites from marine microorganism FIM02-635. Methods The producing strain was identified by taxonomical and phylogenetic studies. Two compounds FW635I1 and FW635I2 with immunosuppressive activities were extracted by organic solvents from the culture broth and purified by silica gel column chromatography and high speed counter current chromatography. The structures of the two compounds were determined by physico-chemical properties and spectral analyses,the biological activities were assayed in vitro. Results and Conclusion The producing strain was named as Micromonospora carbonacea FIM 02-635. Two compounds FW635I1 and FW635I2 were determined to be isoflavone Daidzein and Genistein, respectively, showed immunosuppressive and antitumor activities, but not antimicrobial activities.

Edema, as one of common clinical diseases, could be treated by taking medicines and adopting external therapies with traditional Chinese medicines (TCM). In recent years, there have been many clinical and basic studies concerning external therapies with TCM on edema Data showed that the external therapies are mostly composed of such purgating drugs as Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Natrii Sulfas and Pharbitidis Semen, heat-clearing drug such as Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex and resuscitation-inducing drug such as Borneolum Syntheticum. The study showed that ingredients of external therapies did not pass through hilum and hepatic system, and thus avoided the first pass effect of livers. They enabled effective components of drugs to be rapidly absorbed through pores and skins, strengthened the effect against edema, shortened the treatment course, decreased side effects, and were convenient and inexpensive. External therapies with TCM could play unique advantages in inhibiting edema in the future clinical studies.

BACKGROUND:Corneal stromal fibroblasts have been shown to express interleukin-8 in the stimulation of lipopolysaccharide. Different reactions of fibroblasts to lipoprotein or other inflammatory mediators may constitute different characteristics of different tissues in the inflammatory response. OBJECTIVE:To observe the inhibitory effect of IKK-2 receptor blocker TPCA-1 on human corneal stromal fibroblasts to secrete inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and cel adhesion molecules under the stimulation of lipopolysaccharide and its signal transduction pathway, to compare with dexamethasone, and to explore alternative or synergistic effects after their combination. METHODS:This study measured the secretion of interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 from cultured human corneal stromal fibroblasts under the action of basic state and lipopolysaccharide, and their changes after the intervention with IKK-2 receptor blocker TPCA-1 and dexamethasone. We also detected expression level of intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and interleukin-6 in cel surface, and verified the changes in expression levels of intercelular adhesion molecule-1, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 from mRNA level, as wel as examined the expression of nuclear factor kappa B under above conditions.

0.05). Conclusion: The short-term clinical result indicates that resin-bonded CBW may be used as fixed prostheses to replace lost single anterior or premolar teeth with minimum preparation of abutment teeth. This restoration does not adversely influence the health of dental pulp and periodontal tissues.

Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura(HSP)is an IgA-associated leukocytoclastic small-vessel vasculitis, commonly occurred in children.Recent studies have shown that its pathogenesis is closely related to the disturbance of humoral immune response mediated by B cells.CD4 + T cells have the function of help B cells.Each subgroup of CD4 + T cells has unique functions of promoting or regulating immune inflammatory response.There are abnormal changes in the proportion of CD4 + T cells subsets in HSP patients, including the imbalance of Th1/Th2, increasing numbers of Th17 and Tfh cells, together with decreasing Treg cell numbers.The changes are closely related to the occurrence, development and the clinical phenotype of HSP.It is suggested that the detection of CD4 + T cells plays critical roles in guiding the evaluation of HSP, and is expected to provide a new idea for the clinical diagnosis and individualized treatment of HSP.

Background:Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is the most common gastrointestinal allergic disease,however,allergy also accounts for some gastrointestinal functional disorders. The correlation between allergic factor and intestinal polyp is not clarified. Aims:To investigate the correlation of allergic factor with intestinal polyp and irritable bowel syndrome(IBS). Methods:Ninety-five inpatients including 60 cases of intestinal polyp and 35 cases of IBS admitted from May 2012 to April 2014 were recruited;95 healthy volunteers were served as controls. Serum samples were collected to test specific IgE antibodies derived from 20 common inhalant and alimentary allergens by EUROIMMUN blotting test. Results:The positivity rates of allergen specific serum IgE antibodies in intestinal polyp group,IBS group and both two groups were 56. 67% ,74. 29% and 63. 16% ,respectively,all were significantly higher than that in control group(6. 32% ,P all <0. 05),but no statistically significant difference was seen between intestinal polyp group and IBS group(P > 0. 05). In all the 20 allergens tested,the positivity rates of Dermatophagoides,roach,crab,sea fish,freshwater fish,shrimp,and egg albumin specific serum IgE antibodies were significantly higher in patients group than in control group( P < 0. 05), especially the crab,see fish and Dermatophagoides specific IgE antibodies. Conclusions:Allergic factor might have some association with intestinal polyp and IBS.
