Objective:To observe the changes of vision and visual evoked potentials (VEP) in patients with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) before and after gene therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study. From December 2017 to October 2018, 35 cases of 70 eyes of m11778G.A/MT-ND4 mutant LHON patients who were diagnosed in the Tongji Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology and received gene therapy were included in the study. There were 30 males (87.71%) and 5 females (12.29%), with the mean age of 23.31±6.72 years. The gene therapy method was intravitreal injection of rAAV2-ND4 (recombinant adeno-associated virus carrying NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit 4 gene) into one eye. The eye with poor visual acuity was chosen as the injection eye. If both eyes had the same visual acuity, the right eye was designated as the injection eye. Seventy eyes were divided into the injected eye group and the non-injected eye group, in which were both 35 eyes. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and pattern VEP (PVEP) examinations were performed in the injected eye group and the non-injected eye group before treatment (baseline), 1, 3, and 6 months after injection. Compare the changes of BCVA and PVEP between the injected eye group and the non-injected eye group at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after injection. Independent sample t test, paired sample t test or two independent sample nonparametric test were performed to compare the two groups. Results:Compared with baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment, the BCVA of the injected eye group ( t=3.530, 4.962, 5.281; P=0.001, 0.000, 0.000) and the non-injected eye group ( t=3.288, 2.620, 2.252; P=0.002, 0.013, 0.031) increased, and the difference was statistically significant; there was no statistically significant difference between VEP IT ( tinjected eye group=-0.158, 1.046, -1.134; Pinjected eye group = 0.875, 0.303, 0.190; tnon-injected eye group=0.773, -0.607, -0.944; Pnon-injected eye group = 0.445, 0.548, 0.352) and VEP A ( Zinjected eye group=-0.504, -0.934, -1.065; Pinjected eye group = 0.614, 0.351, 0.287; Znon-injected eye group=-0.521, -0.115, -0.491; Pnon-injected eye group = 0.602, 0.909, 0.623). Conclusion:After gene therapy, the visual acuity of the injected and non-injected eyes of LHON patients improved; PVEP did not change significantly, and remained stable compared with baseline.

Aim To establish phlegm and blood stasis, qi-stag-nation and blood stasis, phlegm turbid+qi-stagnation and blood stasis model in rats and to study the characteristics of animal models with different blood stasis. Methods SD rats were ran-domly divided into normal group, high fat diet group, chronic unpredictable mild stress group ( CUMS ) and high fat diet +chronic unpredictable mild stress group. Different states of blood stasis rat models were established by corresponding factors for 6 weeks. Indexes of weight, open field behavior, serum lipids and corticosterone were monitored dynamically at the 2 nd, 4 th, 6 th weeks. At the end of the experiment(6th week), the heart func-tion was detected by small animal ultrasound and the left ventric-ular intubation. The blood rheology indexes were detected by the viscosity tester and red blood cell deformation/aggregation test instrument. Results Compared with the normal group, blood stasis could be induced by high fat diet and chronic unpredicta-ble mild stress, introducing the influence of different degree on animal behavior, blood lipids, heart function and blood viscosi-ty. When the two factors were superimposed, the changes of the indexes about blood stasis were the most significant. Perform-ance as: compared with normal control group, a significant re-duction was observed in body weight ( P < 0. 01 ); horizontal movement, vertical movement and movement time were reduced (P<0. 01 or P<0. 05) at the 2 nd week;at the 2 nd and 4 th week, serum corticosterone was increased ( P <0. 01 or P <0. 05) as well as TG at the 4 th and 6 th week (P<0. 01); at the 6 th week, velocity of blood was slowed down ( P<0. 01 );left ventricular anterior wall and posterior wall thickness at end-systolic was increased ( P<0. 01 or P<0. 05 ); left ventricular diastolic index was increased ( P<0. 01 ); the maximum rate of myocardial contraction was decreased ( P < 0. 05 ); the whole blood viscosity was increased ( P<0. 01 ) . Conclusions Blood stasis could be formed by high fat diet and chronic unpredictable mild stress, which has different characteristics. When the two factors are superimposed, the abnormal behavior, blood viscosi-ty, heart function, blood lipid and other indexes of the animal could obviously appear, which can provide the basis for the stud-y of blood stasis syndrome and related drugs.
