Response surface analysis (uniform precision of central composite design, SAS 9.1.3 software) was applied to optimize the four major factors (ratio of soybean meal to water, enzyme quantity, fermentation time and inoculation quantity) for soybean meal solid fermentation. According to the change of the hydrolyzation degree of soybean protein, the equation of polynomial regression was established between those factors and the response. The result showed that the optimum condition included as follows: ratio of soybean meal to water 1∶1.00,enzyme quantity 2.55%, fermentation time 65h and inoculation quantity 1.00%. Under the optimum level, the degree of hydrolyzation reached 13.3%, which increased 56% over pre-optimization.

AIM: To investigate the clinical effects of intravitreal Bevacizumab for 26 cases with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in Zone Ⅰ.
METHODS:A retrospective study. Totally 26 ROP infants between September 2013 and October 2014 diagnosed as high - risk ROP in Zone Ⅰ had been treated with intravitreal bevacizumab. They were divided into three groups, pre - threshold ROP, threshold ROP and acute posterior ROP ( APROP ). Postoperative effects were compared.
RESULTS:There were 26 infants (52 eyes) diagnosed as ROP in Zone Ⅰ, including 3 infants( 6 eyes) with pre -threshold ROP, 15 infants (30 eyes) with threshold ROP and 8 infants (16 eyes) with APROP. The first operation recovery rate of three groups respectively were 100% (6 /6), 60% ( 18 / 30 ) and 75% ( 12 / 16 ), which were not significantly different (P>0. 05).
CONCLUSION:Intravitreal bevacizumab for ROP in ZoneⅠ seems effective and has some advantages over conventional laser treatment, which could be first line treatment for high-risk ROP in Zone Ⅰ.

Objective: To study the effects of long chain PUFA, AA and/or DHA on the fatty acid composition, growth and development of the newborn rats hippocampal neurons in culture. Methods: The primary culture of the hippocampal neurons was carried out in vitro by using serum free medium and supplementing 4 ? mol/L AA, DHA, or AA and DHA, of which the total concentration were 4 ?mol/L, the ratios of AA∶DHA from 1∶2 to 16∶1, in medium. The hippocampal neuronal fatty acid composition was analyzed by gas chromatogram, and the neuronal size and length of hippocampal neurite were measured by image analysis. Results: There were significant positive correlations between the ratios AA∶DHA in medium and the AA percentage and the ratios AA∶DHA in hippocampal neurons. The soma area? body maximum? minimum diameter and process length of hippocampal neurons in the group, which the total concentration of AA and DHA was 4 ?mol/L, and the ratio AA∶DHA in medium was 2∶1 or 4∶1,were higher significantly than other groups and groups with other ratios of AA∶DHA. Conclusion: AA and DHA could promote the growth and development of hippocampal neurons in culture..

Objective To study the relationship between renal morphology and renal function,and to assess the value of CT as a criterion to grade renal function.Methods Enhancement CT were performed in 89 patients with no local renal disease whose split renal glomerular filtration rates(GFR)were measured by renal dynamic imaging with ~(99)Tc~m-DTPA.The 178 kidneys were divided into normal renal function,mild and severe renal impairment groups according to renal function.Differences between three groups respect to the mean thickness of renal cortex and parenchyma were assessed by ANOVA.Using Pearson's correlation test,the correlation between the renal cortex,parenchyma thicknesses and renal GFR were examined.The value of CT in predicting renal function was assessed by using ROC analysis.Results The renal cortex thicknesses of normal renal function,mild and severe renal impairment groups were(5.9?1.1),(4.6? 1.1),and(3.3?1.0)mm respectively,and the renal parenchyma thicknesses were(26.3?4.2), (21.3?4.6),(16.2?4.6)mm.There were significant differences of renal cortex,parenchyma thicknesses between 3 groups(cortex F=54.78,P

OBJECTIVETo evaluate efficacies of three commonly used oral drugs including Berbamine Hydrochloride Tablet (B), Qijiao Shengbai Capsule (Q), and Leucogen Tablet (L) (by single drug, two drugs or three drugs) combined with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for treat ment of chemotherapy related leukocytopenia in mice.

METHODSTotally 156 Kunming male mice were divided into the normal control group (A, n=24), the model group (B, n=24), the G-CSF group (C, n =24), the G-CSF+Q group (D, n=12), G-CSF+ B (E, n=12), the G-CSF+L group (F, n=12), the G-CSF + Q + B group (G, n=12), the G-CSF + Q + L group (H, n=12), the G-CSF + L + B group (I, n=12), and the G-CSF + L + Q + B (J, n=12). Mouse models of chemotherapy related leukocytopenia were established by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CTX). A G-CSF group was set up as a positive control. Mice were treated by a single oral drug, a single oral drug combined with G-CSF, and two or three drugs combined with G-CSF respectively, and the death rate calculated. Hemocytes [such as white blood cells (WBC) and its classification, red blood cells (RBC), platelet (PLT), hemoglobin (Hb)] were calculated by hematology analyzer. Mice were anatomized and important organs weighed. Organ indices were calculated.

RESULTSThere was no statistical difference in the mortality rate among all groups (P > 0.05). Compared with Group B, WBC was elevated in all other groups (P < 0.01). WBC and PLT were elevated most in Group J, Hb and RBC were also increased at the same time (P < 0.05, P < 0. 01). Compared with Group B, RBC increased in Group E, F, G, I, and J (P < 0.01); Hb obviously increased in Group C, E, F, H, I, and J (P<0.01). Compared with Group B and D, the promotion of erythroid hematopoiesis by G-CSF could be elevated in any group contained drug B and L (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The spleen index of model mice could be significantly improved in Group C, D, and G (P < 0.01). The thymus index of model mice could be significantly improved in Group H (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe best scheme to treat mice with chemotherapy related leukopenia or decreased three blood series was to administrate three commonly oral drugs combined with G-CSF. Authors speculated that G-CSF and Q might have a certain effect on CTX induced immune inhibition.

OBJECTIVETo compare mid-term clinical outcomes between amputation and limb salvage in treating severe open tibial fractures with type Gustilo III B, III C.

METHODSFrom July 2007 to June 2010,68 patients with severe open tibial fractures with type Gustilo III B, III C treated by amputation and limb salvage were retrospectively analyzed. In amputation group, there were 26 males and 12 females with an average age of (44.9±16.3) years old; and 21 cases were type Gustilo (III B, 17 cases were Gustilo III C; amputation were performed in accordance with soft tissue injury degree of shank, fracture types and surgical exploration. In limb salvageg group, there were 21 males and 9 females with an average age of (43.5±14.7) years old; and 23 cases were type Gustilo III B, 7 cases were Gustilo III C; the method of internal fixation and and wound healing were performed in accordance with patients's specific condition. Operative time, blood loss, hospital stay and postoperative infection was compared between two groups; time of loading and rate of return to work was compared; VAS scoring was used to evaluate condition of pain; SF-36 health queationaire was used to assess postoperative life quality.

RESULTSTotally 60 patients were followed up (33 cases in amputation group and 27 cases in limb salvage group) with an average time of 49.1 months. Operative time, blood loss, hospital stay and postoperative infection in amputation and limb salvage group respectively was (109.0±25.7) min, (245.0±58.6) min; (168.0±49.0) ml, (311.0±137.0) ml; (13.8±2.7) d, (28.8±13.1) d; 7.9%, 36.7%. At the final following-up, there was no significance meaning between two groups in VAS scoring and rate of return to work, but time of loading in amputation group was shorter than that of in limb salvage group. Physiological function in amputation group was better than limb salvage group, while body pain was worse; and there was no signicance meaning in psychological health between two groups.

CONCLUSIONAmputation and limb salvage both can treat severe open tibial fractures, and mid-term clinical outcomes between two groups has equivalent efficacy.
