The corneal transparency is one of the important basic conditions for realizing normal physiological functions of visual organs. Also corneal endothelial cells are important conditions for maintaining normal corneal transparency. Therefore, only to ensure the morphology and physiological integrity of the corneal endothelial, can have normal vision. However, intraocular surgeries inevitably cause damage to corneal endothelial cells. This paper will review the effects of glaucoma surgery on corneal endothelial cells.

OBJECTIVETo explore the influence of different strength intermittent treadmill training of growth period rats on the bone metabolism, so as to provide the training intensity of teenagers to set theory support.
METHODSSelect 70 male four weeks Wistar rats according to body weight randomly divided into seven groups (n = 10): the control group and the exercise group. According to the VO2max the exercise group was divided into 6 groups: 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% and 90% group. Nine weeks treadmill training, training six days a week, each group of training three times, each time not less than 10min, the interval was 30 min. The last movement after 24 h, took the femur and blood to measured the bone mineral density (BMD), bone mass (BMC) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP), resist tartaric acid acidic phosphatase (Str-ACP).
RESULTS1. The femoral BMD (0.1393 +/- 0.0031), BMC (0.4525 +/- 0.0335) of 70% group were significantly higher than those in the control group (BMD: 0.1200 +/- 0.0095, BMC: 0.3238 +/- 0.0485) and the other sports group (65% BMD:0.1339 +/- 0.0062, BMC: 0.4058 +/- 0.0492, 75% BMD: 0.1296 +/- 0.0015, BMC: 0.3869 +/- 0.0254, 80% BMD: 0.1223 +/- 0.0082, BMC: 0.3454 +/- 0.0483, 85% BMD: 0.1250 +/- 0.0044, BMC: 0.3731 +/- 0.0381, 90% BMD: 0.1171 +/- 0.0047, BMC: 0.3051 +/- 0.0286) (P < 0.05), the femoral BMD, BMC of 90% group were lower than those of the control group, the other in the exercise group were higher than those in the control group; 2. Serum AKP in the exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group, the group of 65% (41.015 +/- 2.114), 70% (46.035 +/- 2.611), 75% (43.834 +/- 3.155), and 80% (38.043 +/- 4.073) were very significantly higher than those in the control group (26.875 +/- 1.188) (P < 0.01); 70% group and 75% group were significantly higher than those in the 80% group , 85% group and 90% group, while 70% group serum AKP level were significantly higher than those in 65% group (P < 0.05), it showed that 70% of the VO2 max training intensity of osteoblasts was most active. The serum Str-ACP of exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group, along with the increase of the training intensity, serum Str-ACP level was rising and the group of 80% (22.430 +/- 1.591), 85% (23.990 +/- 1.870), and 90% (28.009 +/- 1.839) serum of Str-ACP were significantly higher than those in the group of 65% (18.503 +/- 2.429), 70% (16.447 +/- 2.120) and 75%(17.769 +/- 1.642) ( P < 0.05), the group of 90% serum Str-ACP were significantly higher than those in the group of 80% and 85% (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe training of 70% of the VO2max, moderate intensity intermittent running, make the growth period rat bone mass and bone mineral density to increase obviously.

In recent years, the discovery and studies on aquaporin have made us have a more in-depth understanding about the physiological and pathological processes of water metabolism. Over years, however, there has been no quantitative study on the target sites of diuretic traditional Chinese medicines at the molecular level. In that case, aquaporin was found to been a new target molecule to explain the efficacy exertion of diuretic traditional Chinese medicines. By studying aquaporin, researchers can understand the implicit meaning of the diuretic effect of traditional Chinese medicines and conduct quantitative studies on the diuretic effect. So far, many scholars have conducted a series of studies in the traditional Chinese medicine field by using the findings on aquaporin and made certain advances. This article provides a summary about the efficacy exertion of diuretic traditional Chinese medicines through target molecule aquaporin.

Based on the idea that the pathogenic-etiologic mechanism is the " blockadeof liver channels, blood stasis and Qi stagnation resulting in malnutrition of liver due to iack of blood supply", the treating principle of " e-liminating stasis and supporting body resistance" was established with the combined use of extracts from peach -kernel plus cordicep hypha. 6 cases were thus treated. All of them received laparoscopy , and liver biopsy before and after the treatment. The gross appearance, histology and ultra. - microscopic structure and irnmuno - histo - chemistry were examined. Results showed that most of the activatedfat - storage cells after treatment were silent the I, III types of collagen depo - sited among the spaces of peri - sinusoid and liver cells and FN, LM weredecreased in part of the patient, resulting in less intrahepatic fibrosis, degradation of collagen fibres deposited in inter hepatic cellular spaces, inhibition and reversion of capillariza-tion oi liver sinusoid, hence, improvement of degener-ation of liver cells in most cases. The texture of the liver were turning normal with amelioration of portal hypertension and decrease of varicose mesenteric ves-seis. The liver turned red, swelling of falciform lig(?)-ment disappeared, and ascitis subsided.

AIM:To study the visual acuity and refractive status of students pupils and middle school students in Shenzhen, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of myopia.
METHODS:A cluster sampling method was used to select five primary school students(6 737) and three junior middle school students(1 925) from Shenzhen. The visual acuity, anterior segment, fundus, eye position, and refractive status were measured. Information on associated factors for poor vision were also obtained using a questionaire. The risk factors of poor vision and the rate of myopia between grade or gender were analysed by Chi-square test.
RESULTS:The rate of poor vision was 67. 0%. Female, family history of high myopia, long time of continuous look near, short time of outdoor activities were the main risk factors. The rate of emmetropia, hyperopia, astigmatism and myopia were 15. 1%, 11. 3%, 11. 0% and 62. 6% respectively. Emmetropia, hyperopia and astigmatism incidenece rate decreased with age growing, but myopia incidence rate was increased. There were significant differences between adjacent two grades in myopia(χ2=7. 338-45. 018, P<0. 05 ) except the primary grade six and the junior grade one. There were significant differences between boys ( 61. 0%) and girls ( 65. 5%) in myopia(χ2=17. 180, P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION:The rate of poor vison is pretty high in students of Shenzhen aged between 5 to 16 years old, and myopia is the main reason. The development rate of myopia is increased with age. Early management of myopia may play an important role in controlling poor vision in students.
