1.The status and advances in the application of optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2021;37(3):245-247
Leber hereditary optic neuropathy is an optic neuropathy associated with mitochondrial DNA. The disease affects young men mainly, which is considered to be due to denaturation of the retinal nerve ganglion cell and axonal loss of optic nerve, leading to optic atrophy. Nowadays, there are some development in studying Leber hereditary optic neuropathy by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). It is great help to know the disease, forecast the progression of disease, and take action on intervention. In addition, there is a lack of in-depth study on OCT and OCTA characteristics among different mutation sites of LHON, different genders of the same site, different families of the same site or even different branches of the same family. It is expected to be improved in the future work.

Objective To understand perinatal health care and demand status, and explore the influence factors of perinatal health in Jinzhou area. Methods Randomly investigate 996 mothers from three hospital in Jinzhou. Results Seeking pregnancy health service demand rate: general hospital of obstetrics and gynecology accounted for 52.2%(520/996), maternity hospitals accounted for 39.5%(393/996), family planning services accounted for 8.3% (83/996). Good crowd in pregnancy cognition, > 30 65.3% (297/455), 30 years old or less accounted for 34.7% (158/455). Medical personnel in maternal knowledge acquirement accounted for 33.2% (331/996), pregnant women school training accounted for 23.9% (238/996), network way accounted for 16.2% (161/996), the relatives and friends accounted for 10.7% (107/996), books accounted for 10.8% (108/996), the other way accounted for 5.1% (51/996).The related factors of postpartum depression are marital status, antenatal education, the way of breastfeeding. Conclusions The family planning service has not fully played its efficiency. Women under t he age of 30 need to enhance conciousness about health care before pregnancy. The network platform still has space to play education function. It′s necessary that puerperal nursing routine should add postnatal depression questionnaire in the future.

Objective To study the efficacy of tirofiban coronary injection combined with atorvastatin in the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and arrhythmia. Methods Ninety-two patients with ACS and arrhythmia admitted to Yiwu Central Hospital from January 2017 to May 2018 were enrolled, and they were divided into a control group and a study group by reference to random number table method, with 46 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received routine treatment; the patients in the study group were treated with tirofiban coronary injection combined with atorvastatin on the basis of the treatment in the control group. The changes of myocardial injury markers, blood lipid levels, inflammatory factors, apoptosis indicators and incidence of adverse reactions were observed before and after treatment in the two groups. Results After treatment the levels of serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase (CK), CK isoenzyme (CK-MB), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), interleukin-6 (IL-6), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and C-myc were significantly lower than those before treatment in the two groups, and all the levels in the study group were lower than those in the control group [cTnT (mg/L):1.5±0.5 vs. 3.2±1.0, CK (U/L): 158.6±17.2 vs. 224.1±20.3, CK-MB (U/L): 30.5±11.4 vs. 44.3±9.7, TC (mmol/L):5.0±0.8 vs. 5.6±0.5, LDL-C (mmol/L): 2.0±1.0 vs. 2.7±1.3, IL-6 (mg/L): 86.5±15.2 vs. 131.4±16.3, hs-CRP (mg/L): 4.7±3.3 vs. 7.3±3.6, C-myc: (18.2±8.1)% vs. (23.4±10.3)%], and all the above differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of Bcl-2 in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment, and the level in the study group was obviously higher than that of the control group [(78.4±12.2)% vs. (69.3±9.7)%, P < 0.05]. The adverse reactions were found in 6 patients in each group, and the incidence of adverse reactions was the same in the two groups [13.0% (6/46) vs. 13.0% (6/46), P > 0.05]. Conclusions Tirofiban coronary injection combined with atorvastatin is markedly effective in the treatment of patients with ACS and arrhythmia, as it can reduce myocardial cell damage, regulate blood lipid levels, inhibit inflammatory response and antagonize cardiomyocyte apoptosis.
