AIM:To observe the clinical effect of femtosecond laser assisted penetrating keratoplasty.
METHODS: Twenty-four cases ( 24 eyes ) with corneal lesions were performed with femtosecond laser assisted penetrating keratoplasty. Preoperative and postoperative endothelial cell density and visual quality were compared.RESULTS: One week after operation, corneal grafts were clear in 21 eyes (87. 5%), mild cloudy in 3 eyes (12.5%);visual acuity ≥0. 5 in 18 eyes (75. 0%), 0. 2 ~0.4 in 6 eyes ( 25. 0%). After 3mo the mean corneal astigmatism was 2. 16±0. 21D ( range 2. 25 ~ 3. 09D). Compared to conventional penetrating keratoplasty which mean corneal astigmatism was average 3. 67±0. 38D after operation, there was significant difference between two groups ( P< 0. 05 ). There were significant differences between preoperative and postoperative visual acuity and astigmatism (both P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser assisted penetrating corneal transplantation operation can improve patient's visual quality. And compared to traditional penetrating keratoplasty astigmatism decreased significantly, incision can be made in individual shape more precisely and neatly.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of spiral CT [CT arterial portography (CTAP) and CT hepatic arteriography(CTHA)] for hepatic carcinoma. Methods The CTAP and CTHA manifestations in 21 patients with hepatocelluar carcinoma were analyzed and compared with those in three-phase enhanced CT . Results The detection rate of three-phase enhanced CT was 72.4% , CTAP and CTHA was 96.1% and 88.2% respectively. The detection rate of combination CTAP and CTHA was 98.7% . They could reveal tumors of 0.5 cm in diameter . Both CTAP and CTHA gave false-positive findings , such as perfusion defects in 22.3% of CTAP and non-pathologic enhancement in 30.2% of CTHA .Conclusion With the use of spiral CT technique , the quantity of contrast material administrated in CTAP and CTHA can be considerably reduced . And the quality of CT images significantly improved . The detection rate of CTAP and CTHA is higher than that of three-phase enhanced CT . Simultaneous use of both procedures may decrease the false-positive rate.

There are similarities between magnetotactic bacteria and Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans) which isolated from Acid mine drainage(AMD). The weak magnetotaxis of some bioleaching bacteria isolated were found by microscope. A magnetophoresis apparatus was designed based on these weak magnetotaxis and be used to analysis the movement of these strains. The physiological properties of the anear magnetic field strain and removed magnetic field strain which isolated successfully by magnetophoresis apparatus have large difference. The nanometer magnetic particles was extract from the Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans which purified by spread plate method from AMFS and its main elements are Fe and O by energy spectrum analysis. The results show that A. ferrooxidans have weak magnetotaxis and can be isolated by magnetophoresis. With the development of this new isolating method, the research of magnetotactic bacteria and bioleaching will get more benefit from it.

The genes of maltooligosyl trehalose synthase (MTSase) and maltooligosyl trehalose tetrahydrolase(MTHase) from Sulfolobus solfataricus ATCC 35092 were amplified using PCR. The expression plasmids, pTrc99a-MTSase and pTrc99a-MTHase, were constructed by inserting these two DNA fragments into E. coli expression vector pTrc99a. The specific activity of MTSase and MTHase in E. coli BL21(DE3) at optimal fermentation conditions reached 31.3U/g (wet cell) and 403U/g (wet cell), respectively. The biotransformation of partially hydrolyzed starch to trehalose catalyzed by MTSase and MTHase was carried out at 75℃ and pH 5.0. The highest yield of trehalose (ca. 53.6%) was gained when the original starch concentration was 15%(w/v) and the DE value was 10.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the changes and the effects of captopril on the renal blood flow and microvascular perfusion in dogs with acute cardiac insufficiency.
METHODSAcute cardial insufficiency was induced by combining occlusion of the left anterior descending artery with right ventricular pacing in 12 mongrel dogs. The ascending aorta and left kidney were dissected and ultrasonic flow probes were placed on ascending aorta and renal artery to monitor cardiac output (CO) and renal blood flow (RBF). Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the kidney was performed as CO was reduced to 25% (LCO25%) and 50% (LCO50%) from the basic measurement and microvascular flow velocity (beta), microvascular volume (A) and microvascular blood flow (renal cortex) were observed. After CO reduced to 50%, captopril 1 mg/kg and 2 mg/kg were injected successively and contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the kidney were performed again before and after injection.
RESULTSAt baseline, CO, RBF, CXbeta (beta of renal cortex), A and A x beta were (1.46 +/- 0.16) ml/min, (107.5 +/- 35.7) ml/min, 1.39 +/- 0.14, 120.3 +/- 14.8 and 167.4 +/- 25.0, respectively. After the LCO25% was reached, RAF, CXbeta, A and A x beta decreased to (72.50 +/- 32.4) ml/min, 0.87 +/- 0.082, 117.6 +/- 13.1, and 102.6 +/- 15.5, respectively. The corresponding values after the LCO50% was reached were (44.1 +/- 17.2) ml/min, 0.61 +/- 0.039, 106.9 +/- 12.0, and 64.7 +/- 8.83, respectively. It is suggested that the volume of the renal microvasculature remained stable until the LCO50% was reached. When captopril 1 mg/kg and 2 mg/kg were injected successively at LCO50%, MAP decreased from (85.4 +/- 7.8) mm Hg to (78.7 +/- 7.3) mm Hg and to (69.1 +/- 6.3) mm Hg (P < 0.05), respectively, while CO increased from 0.73 +/- 0.084 to 0.83 +/- 0.065 and to 0.9 +/- 0.054 (P < 0.05), respectively. RBF increased from (44.1 +/- 17.2) ml/min to 60.3 +/- 17.8 and to 79.4 +/- 17.8 (P < 0.05), respectively. After captopril 1 mg/kg and 2 mg/kg were injected, the increased flow ratios with CO were 0.15 +/- 0.084 and 0.31 +/- 0.011, respectively, and with RBF were 0.29 +/- 089 and 0.522 +/- 0.040, respectively. The increased renal blood flow ratio was higher than that of CO after captopril was used. The corresponding increases were from 0.61 +/- 0.039 to 0.75 +/- 0.020 and to 0.86 +/- 0.027 for CX beta, from 106.9 +/- 11.9 to 115.4 +/- 11.1 and to 116.6 +/- 8.9 for A, from 64.7 +/- 8.83 to 87.0 +/- 8.6 and to 100.6 +/- 8.9 for A x beta, respectively.
CONCLUSIONThe renal microvasculature plays a role by keeping its volume stable in the protection against renal ischemia when acute cardiac output decreases slightly. The role of captopril to improve renal microvascular perfusion is independent of increased total cardiac output or increased systemic blood pressure.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the relationship between myocardial systolic, diastolic functions and perfusion in coronary artery stenosis using velocity vector imaging (VVI) and myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE).
METHODSStenoses in the anterior descending branch of the coronary artery were induced in 8 dogs. Before and after coronary artery stenosis, two-dimensional images of the left ventricular mastoid muscle section on the short axis at rest and in the peak dose of dobutamine were obtained for evaluation of VVI and MCE. The myocardial blood flow A.beta values, peak systolic strain rate (SRsys) and peak diastolic strain rate (SRdia) in the direction of the circumference of the short axis were measured.
RESULTSAt rest, only severe coronary stenosis resulted in significantly lowered SRsys, SRdia and A.beta value of the stenotic bed compared to the values before the stenosis (-1.1-/+0.50 vs -1.62-/+0.50, 1.19-/+0.48 vs 1.75-/+0.51, 0.4-/+0.21 vs 0.80-/+0.47, P<0.05). In stress, SRsys, SRdia and A.beta value of the stenotic bed gradually decreased as coronary stenosis worsened (-4.31-/+1.14 vs -3.20-/+0.98 vs -1.18-/+0.64, 4.51-/+1.13 vs 3.39-/+0.98 vs 1.37-/+0.64. 3.54-/+1.95 vs 1.81-/+0.89 vs 0.82-/+0.42, P<0.05). Both at rest and in stress, good correlations were noted between SRsys and SRdia (r(rest)=0.88, r(stress)=0.96, P<0.01), between SRsys and the standard A.beta values (r(rest)0.56, r(stress)=0.71, P<0.01), and between SRdia and A.beta (r(rest)=0.57, r(stress)=0.72, P<0.01) in the direction of the circumference of the short axis.
CONCLUSIONSUsing VVI and MCE, the changes in myocardial perfusion and the systolic and diastolic functions in the direction of the circumference can be observed dynamically. VVI may help assess the condition of myocardial perfusion by evaluating the systolic and diastolic function.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the allergens of various allergic diseases in children.
METHODSSerum levels of Fx5E, Phadiatop and specific IgE were measured by the UniCAP100 System in 3 504 children with allergic diseases.
RESULTSThe positive rate of aeroallergens was obviously higher than that of food allergens in children with allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, asthma and papular urticaria. In contrast, the positive rate of food allergens was obviously higher than that of aeroallergens in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura and digestive diseases. The serum specific IgE level of aeroallergens was higher than that of food allergens. The dust and mite specific IgE levels reached to grade 6, while the food allergen specific IgE levels were lower than grade 3.
CONCLUSIONSAaeroallergens or food allergens vary remarkably in different allergic diseases in children. The level of specific IgE of aeroallergens is higher than that of food allergens.
