AIM: To investigate the infection factors,diagnosis and treatment of endophthalmitis after intraocular foreign body injury.METHODS: Totally 256 cases with intraocular foreign bodies including the occurrence of endophthalmitis in 42 cases were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS: The incidence of endophthalmitis after intraocular foreign body injury was 16.4%.Posterior segment foreign bodies and combined with traumatic cataract were the risk factors of endophthalmitis after intraocular foreign body injury (all P<0.05).Intravitreal injection of vancomycin hydrochloride and ceftazidime in the treatment of intraocular foreign body injury reduced the incidence of endophthalmitis (P<0.05).Types and sizes of intraocular foreign bodies,the time of extraction and the condition of wound had no significant effect on the incidence of endophthalmitis (all P>0.05).Vitrectomy was the main treatment of endophthalmitis.CONCLUSION: Posterior segment foreign bodies and combined with traumatic cataract were the risk factors of endophthalmitis after intraocular foreign body injury.It should be kept the integrity of the posterior capsule of lens in traumatic cataract surgery.Intravitreal injection of vancomycin and ceftazidime is recommended in emergency surgery.Vitrectomy should be performed as soon as possible when confirmed endophthalmitis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of combined induction therapy of interferon(IFN) and chemotherapy on survival of the patients with small cell lung cancer(SCLC)by meta-analysis.Methods Search all of clinical trials for addition of IFN to initial chemotherapy and single chemotherapy for induction therapy in SCLC patients in MEDLINE、EMBASE and COCHRANE Library.The references of related studies and education books of ASCO and ESMO meeting were handsearched.The quality of included trials was evaluated.Data were extracted by two reviewers independently with a designed extraction form.Revman 4.2.7 software was used for data analysis.Results The addition of IFN increased 1-year survival and response rate,but both of the results had no significant statistical difference.Conclusion IFN-chemotherapy induction treatment might not influence survival and response rate of patients with NSCLC.To resolve the problem,a series of controlled,prospective,randomized,double-blind,well-designed,multi-center trials should be performed.

Objective To investigate the current situation of puncture-related pain in patients with the arteriovenous fistula undergoing maintenance hemodialysis and its correlated factors. Methods A total of 180 hemodialysis patients with the arteriovenous fistula undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were investigated with demographic data questionnaire, visual analogue scale and pain self-efficacy questionnaire. Results The effective questionnaires rate was 93.89%(169/180). The median score of puncture-related pain was 5 scores, the score of pain self-efficacy was (31.42±14.59) scores;multivariate analysis demonstrated that the puncture-related pain was positively correlated with the patient gender, using time of arteriovenous fistula and pain self-efficacy ( β=0.152,-0.017,-0.409, P<0.05), OR (95%CI)were 2.069 (1.206-3.148), 0.803(0.710-0.984), 1.004(0.886-1.431). There was negative correlation between the puncture-related pain score and pain self-efficacy in these patients, r=-0.647, P<0.01. Conclusions Puncture-related pain is common sense in patients with the arteriovenous fistula undergoing maintenance hemodialysis, some factors including the patient gender, using time of arteriovenous fistula and pain self-efficacy influence this feeling.

Objective:To investigate the shaping and cleaning ability of Reciproc(RE),OneShape(OS)and ProTaper(PT)in oval-shaped root canal preparation.Methods:The canals of 57 distal roots of mandibular first molars were randomly divided into 3 groups and prepared by RE,OS and PT respectively.The preparation time was recorded.After instrumentation,all root canal walls were examined under SEMand evaluated by scores of debris and smear layer.The 3D data and images of the roots of pre-and post-preparation were con-structed by Micro-CT scanning.Results:Group RE and OS showed lower scores of debris and smear layer than those in group PT at the apical level(P <0.05),and less preparation time (P <0.05).Before and after preparation,the changes of root canal morphological pa-rameters (including volume,surface,area,major diameter and minor diameter)in OS group were less than those in group RE and PT(P<0.05).The changes of canal curvature in group PT was larger than that in group RE and OS (P <0.05).Conclusion:RE and OS are more effective than PT in debridement and faster in root canal preparation.RE and OS can maintain the centering of original canal better than PT in the apical part of the root canal.The shaping ability of OS is weaker than that of RE and PT.

Objective To investigate the biological activity of cytokine-induced killer(CIK)cells in vitro.Methods Lymphocytes isolated from peripheral blood in leukemic children were induced with interferon-?(IFN-?),anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody(CD3McAb)and interleukin-2(IL-2)and co-cultured with dendritic cells(DC)to generate DC-CIK cells.The morphology and immunophenotype of these cells were determined by electron microscopy and flow cytometry,respectively.Cytotoxicity of DC-CIK cells against leukemia cell lines was measured by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay.Interleukin-12(IL-12),tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)levels released by DC-CIK cells were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.Results Induced DC-CIK cells were regular,round and transparent with variable cell volume and cellular aggregation.At the 0th-4th day,its amplification was very slow,and it increased quickly at the 5th-8th day,it reached its peak amplification at the 9th-10th day,at approximately 100-fold.The main effector cells in this population were CD3+CD8+ cells and CD3+CD56+ cells.DC-CIK cells were cytotoxic to B95 cells,K562 cells and HL-60 cells,with the highest cytotoxicity towards B95 cells.The expression levels of IL-12 and TNF-? in supernatant were very high.Conclusions DC-CIK cells induced with cytokines displayed powerful amplification and strongly killing activities in vitro.It suggested that DC-CIK cells induced with cytokines may play killing activities through Th1 pathway in vitro,as a result of high secretion of Th1 cytokines,such as IL-12 and TNF-?.

Objective:To explore the relationship among childhood psychological maltreatment,online aggressivebehavior and trait anger in college students.Methods:Totally 442 college students (226males,216 females,aged 16-25 years) were surveyed with the Psychological Maltreatment Scale (PMS),Adolescent Online Aggressive Behavior Scale (AOABS) and Trait Anger Scale (TAS).The bias-corrected percentile bootstrap method was used to analyze the mediating effect of trait anger between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior.Results:The scores of PMS,AOABS and TAS were positively correlated each other(r =0.44,0.37,0.48,Ps ＜0.01).The PMS scores had a significantly direct effect on the AOABS scores,its estimate was 0.27.The PMS scoreshad a significantly indirect effect on the AOABS scores through TAS scores(95％ CI:0.15-0.34).Conclusion:It suggests that the trait anger may be related to childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior,and trait anger may play a partial mediating role between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behaviorin college students.

Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on T-lymphocyte subpopulations in rats with acute pancreatitis. Methods 56 rats were randomly divided into three groups the sham group ( n = 8 ),control group( n = 24) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy group( treatment group, n = 24), then the control group and treatment groups were divided into three subgroups of 8 rats each undergoing euthanasia on days 1,3,7 after the acute pancreatitis induction. The CD4+ ,CD8+ subpopulations of T-lymphocytes in peripheral blood were detected respectively at the fist day and each day of the euthanasia. The sham group was used to make sure that the model was successfully induced. After euthanasia the pancrea was examined using electron microscopy. Results In the control group, the CD4+ cells in AP rats was significantly decreased and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ also decreased. After 7days of HBO therapy,compared with the control group, the CD4+ lymphocytes of peripheral blood in the treatment group markedly increased( P ＜0.01 ). The CD8+ lymphocytes also increased to a certain extent. And the CD4+/CD8+ ratio of peripheral blood was obviously increased(P ＜0. 01 ). Also more severe pathological changes appeared in the untreated group than in the treatment group. Conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen therapy could improve the oxygen supply in acute panereatitis, regulate T cell immune function.

Objective To observe the effects on rabbit corneas and retinas after single intravitreal injection of voriconazole at different doses.Methods According to the randomization table,25 healthy rabbits were randomly divided into control group,and voriconazole 50,100,200,and 400 μg groups.Therefore,there were 5 rabbits in each group.The eyes of control group received intravitreal injection of 0.1 ml balanced saline solution,and those treatment groups received 0.1 ml voriconazole injection of corresponding dose.Before the injection and 1,7,and 14 days after the injection,endothelial cell counts and corneal thicknesses were measured;full-field electroretinogram were performed and b-wave amplitudes in maximal combined reaction (Max-R) were recorded.On 14 days after the injection,histologic structures were observed by light microscope and transmission electron microscope.Results There was no significant difference in endothelial cell counts (F=0.320,0.291,0.467,0.649) and corneal thicknesses (F=0.214,0.284,0.360,0.225) with those of control group at any time points (P＞0.05).Before and 1 day after the injection,b-wave amplitudes of each voriconazole group had no significant difference compared with those of control group (F=0.220,0.106;P＞0.05).On 7 days after the injection,b-wave amplitudes decreased significantly at doses of 200 μg and 400 μg (P＜0.05).On 14 days after the injection,there was no significant difference between the the amplitude of 200 μg group and that of control group (P＞ 0.05).However,the amplitude of the 400 μg group decreased continuously and there was still significant difference (P＜0.05).Light microscopy did not reveal any corneal abnormality in both control group and voriconazole groups.The retinas were normal except that of the 400 μg group,which had a thinner and degenerated inner nuclear layer and disordered photoreceptor layer.Under transmission electron microscope,there were no ultrastructure damages of corneas in both control group and voriconazole groups,either.The rabbit retinas of the 50 μg and 200 μg group have normal inner nuclear layer and photoreceptor layer,but degrees of changes in both layers were observed in the eyes of 200 μg and 400 μg group.Conclusions There is no obvious effects on rabbit corneas and retinas after single intravitreal injection of voriconazole at he dose less than or equal 100 μg.There are no obvious effects on rabbit corneas at the dose of 200 μg and 400 μg,while there are damages to the retinas in both functions and histological structures.

Objective: To investigate the effect of puncture-related pain on the quality of life in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis through internal arteriovenous if stula. Methods: A total of 180 hemodialysis patients with the arteriovenous ifstula were surveyed by the kidney disease quality of life short form(KDQOL-SF1.3), demographic data questionnaire, visual analogue scale and pain self-effcacy questionnaire. Results: The median score of puncture-related pain was 5 and the score of pain self-efficacy was (31.42±14.59). The quality of life in the patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis is poor. KDQOL-SF1.3 was (69.45±24.19), SF-36 was (49.82±19.17) and ESRD-targeted was (55.46±18.37). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the quality of life was positively correlated with the patient gender (β=0.152,P<0.05, OR=1.638, 95% CI 1.241–1.954), working position (β=0.307,P<0.05, OR=2.069, 95% CI 1.206–-3.148), using time of arteriovenous ifstula (β=?0.815, P<0.05, OR=0.223, 95% CI 0.095–0.741), the score of pain (β=-0.017,P<0.05, OR=1.004, 95% CI 0.886–1.431) and pain self-effcacy (β=-0.409,P<0.05, OR=0.803, 95% CI 0.710–0.984). hTere existed negative correlation between the quality of life score and the puncture-related pain score in these patients (r=-0.472,-0.465,-0.381,P<0.01), positive correlation between the quality of life score and the score of pain self-efficacy (r=0.647, 0.203, 0.518,P<0.05), and negative correlation between the puncture-related pain score and the score of pain self-effcacy(r=-0.745,P<0.01). Conclusion: Puncture-related pain is a crucial inlfuential factor on the quality of life in the patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis through internal arteriovenous ifstula.

Objective To observe the effect of inhaled glucocorticoids combined with theophylline in smoking patients with bronchial asthma.Methods Seventy-three patients with bronchial asthma were enrolled in this study and they were divided into observation group (34 cases,smoker) and control group(39 cases,no-smoker).They all accepted inhalation of budesonide 200 μ g/suck,bis in die,plus aminophylline tablet (0.1 g,ter in die,per os) for 3 months.After treatment for 3 months,the basal control rate was compared between two groups.The levels of asthma control test (ACT) score,peak expiratory flow (PEF),the first second forced expiratory volume accounted for the percentage of prediction (FEV1％pred),eosinophil leukocyte (EOS) count and immunoglobulin E(IgE) in two groups before and after treatment for 3 months were compared too.Results After treatment for 3 months,the basal control rate in observation group was 88.24％ (30/34),in control group was 92.31％(36/39),and there was no significant difference(P＞ 0.05).After treatment for 3 months,the levels of ACT score,PEF and FEV1％pred in two groups were increased and the levels of EOS count and IgE were decreased than those before treatment,and there were significant difference (P ＜0.05).After treatment for 3 months,the levels of ACT score,PEF,FEV1％ pred,EOS count and IgE in observation group were (22.43 ± 2.64) scores,(292.52 ± 98.64) L/min,(74.87 ± 4.83)％,(270 ± 180) × 106/L,(68.25 ± 13.89) U/L,in control group were(22.81 ± 2.27) scores,(300.34 ± 100.45) L/min,(75.26 ± 5.04)％,(210 ± 170) × 106/L,(65.47 ± 11.28) U/L,and there were no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Low dose inhaled glucocorticoids combined with theophylline in treatment smoking and non-smoking asthmatics patients are equal.It can improve asthma symptoms and lung function,improve hormone sensitive and reduce airway inflammation.
