AIM: To study central corneal thickness ( CCT ) and correlation in different degrees of diabetic retinopathy ( DR) .
METHODS:A total of 65 cases (130 eyes) with different degrees of DR and 35 normal cases (70 eyes) as the age-and gender-matched control group were examined by corneal endothelial microscope, to measure CCT and statistics
RESULTS: Compared to control group, there were no significant difference of CCT both mild and medium nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy ( NPDR) groups ( P>0. 05 ). While the CCT of severe NPDR group and proliferative diabetic retinopathy ( PDR ) group were thicker than control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05); Pairwise comparison in different degrees of DR groups: the CCT of severe NPDR and mild NPDR groups were thicker than PDR group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0. 05 );compared to medium NPDR, the CCT of PDR was thicker (P<0. 05);The thickness of CCT increases with severity of DR, there was positive linear correlation ( r=0. 173, P<0-05).
CONCLUSION: The CCT increases with severity of DR. Taking care of protecting corneal endothelium is very important in the time of therapeutic measure, especially intraocular operation, to decrease complication.

Objective To observe the hemodynamic effects of open-loop target controlled infusion (OLTCI) and closed-loop target controlled infusion (CLTCI) of propofol and fentanyl for general anesthesia induction. Methods Twenty-four female patients with ASA grade I-II who were performed thyroidectomy were randomly allocated into two groups: OLTCI group and CLTCI group(n=12). In OLTCI group, anesthesia induction and maintenance were performed with propofol and fentanyl at the target concentrations of 3 ?g/mL and 3 ng/mL, respectively. In CLTCI group, double CLTCI were performed. Titrations of propofol and fentanyl were guided with bispectral index (BIS) and product of systolic pressure and heart rate (HR). Initiative concentrations of this closed-loop system were 3 ?g/mL and 3 ng/mL, step-up or step-down concentrations were 0.5 ?g/mL and 0.5 ng/mL, and the highest concentrations were 6 ?g/mL and 5 ng/mL, respectively. HR, mean arterial pressure (MAP), HR variability, BIS value and the dosages of propofol and fentanyl in various time of the two groups were recorded. Results One min after intubation and simulative incision stimulation, BIS value of both groups were increased, but the BIS value in CLTCI group was less increased than OLTCI group(P

Objective:To explore the factors related to juvenile depression with self-mutilate behavior and suicide idea.Methods:75 cases of juvenile with depressive disorder were presented by the investigatin scale (self-made),SCL-90,coping style questionnaire,ASLEC,EMBU,CASQ.Results:Juvenile depression with self-mutilate behavior and suicide idea had gender difference,more juveniles had suicide idea with well-educated mother,juveniles with self-mutilate behavior had more self-rating psychiatric symptoms.self-mutilate behavior and suicide idea were related with negative incidents,parental rearing patterns,coping style and attributional style. Conclusion:Juvenile depression with self-mutilate behavior were influenced by more factors.

Objective:To investigate the expression of metabolic enzymes of fluoropyrimidines in primary colorectal cancer. Methods: Sixty-one cases of pathological confirmed primary colorectal cancer were collected in Beijing Cancer Hospital from August 2003 to February 2004. The expressions of thymidylate synthase (TS), dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) and orotate phosphoribosyl transferase (OPRT) were detected in paired tumor tissues and non-cancerous tissues by RT-PCR. Results: Expression of each enzyme in tumor tissues was positively correlated with that in paired non-cancerous tissues respectively. Compared with the expression of each enzyme in cancer with that in non-cancer, OPRT was higher in cancer while that of DPD and TS was comparable. The expression of OPRT was approximately 4.38-folds higher in colorectal cancer tissues than that in non-cancerous tissues (P0.000). The lowest expression of OPRT was found in mucinous carcinoma while the highest levels in poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma. There were correlations between the ratio of tumor tissues / non-cancerous tissues OPRT expression (T/N) and metastasis to the lymph nodes (r0.36; P0.005), small vessel invasion (r0.26; P0.041) and differentiation (r-0.33; P0.009). Conclusion: The detection of three enzymes by means of RT-PCR is practical and can be used in clinical application. Our results also suggest that OPRT is a potential biomarker in predicating prognosis of colorectal cancer.
