Corneal neovascularization is a significant and sight-threatening complication of many ocular surface disorders, and may cause corneal sear and rejection reaction after corneal grafting. Recent studies have revealed that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in corneal neovascularization, and inhibition of VEGF has become a main strategy for treatment of corneal neovascularization. This article reviews the research progress in inhibition of corneal neovascularization by anti-VEGF therapy.

Objective To investigate the effect of postoperative analgesia with oxycodone on T cell function after operative of cesarean section with chronic hepatitis B.Methods Sixty cesarean sec-tion women with chronic hepatitis B undergoing CS,aged 22-35,were randomly divided into two groups:oxycodone group (group O)and morphine group (group M).The changes of immune cells (Th1,Th2)and liver function were recorded after the analgesia (immediate,postoperative 24 h,48 h,72 h).The total number of pressing analgesia pump and the cumulative amount of PCA were re-corded.Results The Th1 of group O was higher than that of group M at 24 h,48 h after operation (P <0.05),while there was no significant difference of Th1 and Th2 in group M.The total patient-controlled pressing times and accumulated amount of PCA of group O were significantly lower than those in group M (P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion Oxycodone can activate T cell function in postoperative analge-sia,while morphine causes the inhibition of Th1 cells.

Objective: To study the difference in tooth profile among Chinese,Caucasian and Japanese with normal occlusion.Methods: The data of the measurments of Chinese,Caucasian and Japanese with normal occlusion were collected from published studies.Crown angulation,crown inclination and crown convex were used in the comparation among the peoples. Results: Tooth profile in Chinese was significantly different from that of Caucasian but was similar to that of Japanese. Conclusion: The orthodontic appliances should be modified when we use the straight wire appliances that is suitable for Caucasian and Japanese.

Intracranial branch atheromatous disease (BAD) was proposed by Caplan in 1989.It has been widely studied in Japan in recent years.With the application of high-resolution magnetic resonance,BAD has become a hot topic.This article reviews the concept,etiology,pathology,diagnosis and treatment of BAD as well as its relationship with ischemic stroke.

Objective: To clone the cDNA of human sPLA2-IIA,construct the engineered Escherischia coli expressing human sPLA2-IIA and identify the expressed human sPLA2-IIA. Methods: Total RNAs were purified from human fetal spleen. The cDNA of human sPLA2-IIA was cloned by RT-PCR and inserted into plasmid pET32a(+) between NcoI and EcoRI sites for expressing the recombinant human sPLA2-IIA in Escherischia coli BL21(DE3). The recombinants were screened by SDS-PAGE. The engineered Escherischia coli expressing trxA-human sPLA2-IIA fusion protein was established. The expressed human sPLA2-IIA exists in the form of inclusion body and accounts for about 25% of the total proteins of Escherischia coli BL21(DE3). Conclusion: the engineered E. coli methods are suitable for preparing plenty of human sPLA2-IIA which has laid base for the large-scale expression,purification and basic studies of human sPLA2-IIA.

Flow cytometry (FCM) is used for multi parameter and rapid quantitative analysis of biological particles,such as all cells,microorganisms and synthetic microspheres in fast line flow state.It is also a modern cell analysis technology for the separation of specific groups.In recent years,FCM has been applied in the field of assisted reproductive medicine.FCM plays an important role in the diagnosis of immune infertility and predicting the fertilization ability of sperm.This article aims to review FCM application in peripheral immune cell surface marker detection for infertility patients,and research on the structure and function of sperm cell.

Objective To investigate long-term care needs and its influencing factors among old people with chronic diseases in nursing homes in rural area of Liaoning. Methods A total of 502 elderly with chronic diseases were recruited using convenience sampling method from eight nursing homes in rural area of Liaoning, and were investigated with the general information questionnaire, Short Form 36-item Health Survey (SF-36) and long-term care needs questionnaire from March 2015 to January 2016. Results Logistic regression analyses were used to identify that age (P=0.000), old patients′ disease condition (P=0.008), marriage (P=0.013) and quality of life (P=0.000) were major factors affecting long-term care needs. The top three highest percentage services were seeing the doctor 85.26% (428/502), assisting with taking the medicine 80.28% (403/502), assisting with bathing 70.32% (353/502). Conclusions This study suggests that we should improve the quality of services of long-term care needs based on the demands of old people with chronic diseases in nursing homes in rural area.

Objective To study the correlations between bone fracture types and healing time in patients with osteofluorosis. Methods Thirty-seven patients with osteefluorosis and long tubular bone fracture were diagnosed in accordance with radiogram retrospectively. The fractures were divided into two groups: sclerotic and osteoporotic. Twenty four fractured patients with non osteofluorosis were included in the study as controls. All of the patients had operation(open reduction and nickelclad internal fixation). Fracture healing in patients with sclerotic and osteoporotic groups was compared with the control group after operation. Results There were notable differenees(F=4.30,P< 0.05) in term of fracture healing time among the three groups [sclerotic group:(18.4±5.3)weeks; osteoporotic group: (24.5±5.1)weeks; control group: (17.6±3.8)weeks]. Notably, there were significant differences between the osteoporotic and control groups(q=2.34,P<0.05), and between sclerotic and osteoporotic gronps(q=2.51, P<0.05). The healing time of the osteoporotic group was longer than that of sclerotic group. The constituent ratios of fracture healing in sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 73.1% (19/26) ,54.5% (6/11),75.0% (18/24) respectively, and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant(X2=3.67,P<0.05). The healing rate of the osteoporotic group was lower than that of sclerotic and control groups(X2=3.12, 3.36, all P< 0.05). The constituent ratios of healing in the sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 26.9% (7/26),45.5% (5/11),25.0%(6/24), respectively, and there differences among the three groups were statistically significant (X2=4.07 ,P<0.05). The delayed healing rate of the osteoperotic group was higher than those of the sclerotic and control groups(X2= 3.87,3.95, all P<0.05). Conclusions Fracture healing time of osteoporotic osteofluorosis after fracture is longer than normal, and the cause might be the loss of bone mass.

Objective To explore the clinical and pathological features of primary IgA nephrology in patients of different gender.Methods The clinical manifestations,laboratory examination and renal pathology results were compared in 192 IgA nephrology patients.Results Not only the onset age of the male patients was older than that of the female ones (P<0 .05 ),but also the course of disease before the kidney biopsy of male patients was longer than that of the female ones (P<0.05).Besides,the proportion of edema in the male patients was lower (P<0.05).The mean arterial pressure,hemoglobin and 24 h urine protein levels were higher in the male patients at the time of kidney biopsy.Besides,the proportions of high blood pressure,hyperuricemia and hypertriglyceridemia were all higher in the male patients.Furthermore,eGFR of the male patients was lower than that of the female ones (P<0 .05 ).There was a significant difference in the gender distribution of clinical and pathological types (χ2=12.666,P<0.05),and the male and female patients also significantly differed in the 24 h urine protein and CKD grouping (Z=-3.118,Z=-3.246,P<0.05).However,there was no significant sex difference in Lee pathology grading or immunofluorescence type (Z=-1.881,χ2 =-0.187,P>0.05 ).Patients of different gender significantly differed in the renal-interstitial lesions grading (Z=-3.0432,P<0.05);to be more specific,the scores of glomerulosclerosis and renal tubule interstitia were higher in the male patients (P<0.05).Conclusion Patients of different gender differ in the clinical and pathological features of primary IgA nephrology.And clinical pathology of male patients is worse than that of female ones.
