A cluster sampling method was used to select 5 Huaihai communities of Shanghai.All individuals were aged ≥60 years.Visual acuity without correction and presenting acuity with their habitual distance correction were measured separately for each eye.The prevalence of blindness and low vision was 0.49％ and 1.65％ respectively.The leading causes of blindness in a descending sequence included macular degeneration,cataract and retinal vascular disease.

Influenza is a major threat to millions of people worldwide. Vaccines and antiviral agents are two main options available to reduce the impact of the influenza virus, while anti-influenza agents are the most effective means to prevent the transmission of the highly contagious virus and to treat the epidemics of disease. At present, four anti-influenza agents have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of influenza, including two M2 protein ion channel inhibitors-amantadine and rimantadine and two neuraminidase inhibitors-zanamivir and oseltamivir. Arbidol hydrochloride, launched in Russia, is a potent inhibitor of influenza virus, too. Neuraminidase inhibitors could be classified generally by structure into six different kinds: sialic acid derivatives, benzoic acid derivatives, cyclohexene derivatives, cyclopentane derivatives, pyrrolidine derivatives and natural products. In this paper, recent progress in the research of the action mechanisms and structure-activity relationships of these anti-influenza virus agents were reviewed.

Objective To explore the feature and the optimal treatment of kidney stones in children associ-ated with infant formula which had been aduherated with melamine.Method Total of 47 cases of urinary stone and 31 cases of acute renal failure caused by urinary multiple obstruction in children associated with infant formula which had been adulterated with mlelamine in Beijing Children's Hospital University of Medical Science,form Jan-uary to November,2008 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Infant formula which had been adultemted with melamine may lead to kindey stones in 15 days.The mean age was 11-month and the ratio of male to female was 2.6:1.The kindey stones were usually multiple and mostly located either in the ureteropelvic junction or all through the ureter.In the view of the renal function resuming duration,there was no statistic difference among the acute renal failure group,operation group and the conservative group(P=0.683～0.846).In children with uri-nary obstruction and acute renal failure,hemedialysis or peritoneal dialysis was performed.83.9%were relieved by posting catheter through panedoseope and blood purification.100% of the patients resumed normal renal func-tion.81.3% of the patients without acute renal failure had recovered after conservative therapies such as infusion.Conclusions The patients associated with infant formula which had been adulterated with melamine were Usually little infants.Male were more vulnerable than female.Most of them had recovered smoothly and the renal function resumed normal after effcient therapies.

Objective To investigate the effect and clinical application of two kinds of endoscopic titanium clip in treatment of iatrogenic or iatrogenic perforation of duodenal descending part. Methods For 15 cases of perforation of duodenal descending part, according to the specific location of the perforation, select different endoscopic, compare the closing efficiency and success rate. Results 8 cases closed under gastroscopy in 15 cases of descending part of duodenum perforation, successfully closed in 7 cases, success rate was 87.5 %; 7 cases closed under duodenoscopy, successfully closed in 7 cases, the success rate 100.0%. 14 cases successfully closed by endoscopic titanium clip in 15 cases, 1 case failed, the success rate was 93.3 %. The effective titanium clip quantity, invalid (loss) titanium clip quantity and the closing time between the two groups has no statistically significance (P > 0.05). Conclusion It is safe and effective to use two kinds of endoscopic titanium clips in treatment of iatrogenic or iatrogenic duodenal per-foration.

Objective To describe the CSP genotypic profile in clinical isolates of Aspergillus fumigates from different regions of China,and to investigate if there is a difference in antifungal susceptibility among A.fumigates of different CSP genotypes and from different regions.Methods Totally,112 A.fumigates strains clinically isolated from Fujian,Shanghai,Hebei and Beijing were included in this study,and identified according to macro-and micro-morphological characters,growth temperature and β-tubulin sequence.Classic A.fumigatus strains were typed according to CSP gene sequence.The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of voriconazole,itraconazole and amphotericin B to A.fumigates were determined in accordance with the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) M38-A protocol.Results All the strains were identified as classic A.fumigates,and fall into 11 CSP genotypes.The most common genotypes were t04A (n =32),t03 (n =17) and t01 (n =24) in all the strains,tl0,t04A and t01 in Fujian,t04A and t01 in Shanghai,t01,t03 and t04A in Hebei,t02,t04A,t01and t03 in Beijing.One A.fumigatus strain was identified as a new CSP type t25 in Fujian,which showed no obvious difference in morphology,growth rate or appropriate growth temperature from the other CSP genotypes of A.fumigatus strains.No statistical difference was found in the susceptibility to amphotericin B,itraconazole or fluconazole among different genotypes of A.fumigates,whereas the MICs of itraconazole were significantly lower in A.fumigates isolates from Fujian than in those from the other three regions.Conclusions The CSP genotypic profile of A.fumigates varies in clinical isolates from different regions.No significant difference is observed in the susceptibility to amphotericin B,itraconazole or fluconazole among different CSP genotypes of A.fumigates,but the susceptibility to itraconazole is somewhat different between A.fumigates strains from different regions.

Objective To investigate the effect of nCPAP as pre-emptive ventilatory support strategy in severe bronchiolitis. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on cases with nCPAP as pre-emptive ventilatory support strategy for severe bronchiolitis in PICU of our hospital from August 2012 to September 2014. Results Seventy-nine children received nCPAP therapy in our PICU. Overall, nCPAP was successful performed in 69 children, 10 patients required intubations. PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 in patients received intubations were lower than those in patients received only nCPAP before treatment (P < 0.05). There were significant improvements in PaCO2, PaO2, PaO2/FiO2, respiratory rate and heart rate in the patients received only nCPAP at 12 hours and 24 hours post-treatment (P < 0.05). For the 69 patients with hypercapnia received only nCPAP, PaCO2 was significantly reduced at 2 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours post-treatment (P < 0.01). Conclusion Clinically, nCPAP could improve the oxygenation and hypercapnia of patients with severe bronchiolitis. However, these patients, who suffered from severe bronchiolitis with minor PaO2 or PaO2/FiO2, appeared to require intubation as soon as possible.

Background and purpose: Multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumor cell is the main reason for clinical chemotherapy failure as well as cancer recurrence and metastasis. This study was to construct a lentiveral vector of RNA interference of MDR1 gene and observe its inhibitive role on the expression of MDR1 in A549 and A549/DDP cells. Methods: Oligos of base pairs for hairpin RNA targeting MDR1 were chemically synthesized. Via annealing and inserting them into the down-stream of H1 promoter of linearized pSUPER, we obtained the siRNA constructs for MDR1, which were afterwards transfected into A549, a human lung cancer cell line expressing high level MDR1, the impact of constructs was observed on the expression and interference efficiency of siRNA against MDR1. The effective sequence of siRNA targeting MDR1 gene was confirmed. Both sense and antisence oligo DNA of the targeting sequence was designed, synthesized and cloned into the PTM vector, containing a promoter and a green fluorescent protein (GFP). The resulting lentiviral vector containing MDR1 siRNA was named PTM-siMDR1 and then transfected into A549 and A549/DDP cells after being confirmed by PCR and sequencing. Results: Restriction digestion and DNA sequencing showed that the siRNA constructs for MDR1 were successfully produced and the expressed siRNA could effectively down-regnlate the expression of MDRI. PCR demonstrated that the lentivirus RNAi vector of MDR1 producing PTM-siMDR1 was constructed successfully. The chemosensitivity of A549/DDP cells to cisplatin were enhanced obviously after trartsfection. Conclusion: The lentivirus RNAi vector of MDR1 can significantly revise the resistance ofA549/ DDP cells with eisplatin after infection.

Purpose To prepare monoclonal antibody against hCG. Methods Balb/c mice were immunized with hCG, and spleen cells from the mice were fused with myeloma cells SP2/0 at ratio of 5:1. Positive clones were screened by indirect enzyme-linked-immunoadsorbent assay (ELISA) ,then the clones were subcloned by limiting dilution and amplified further. After intraperitoneal injection of hybridoma cells, mouse ascites antibody was prepared. Titres and specificity of the ascites antibody were identified and determined by indirect ELISA. The ascites were purified by protein A affinity chromatography. Results Two strains of hybridoma cell lines obtained could secrete MAb stably. The titre of MAb of cell culture supernate is more than 10~(-3), and the titre of prepared ascites MAb is more than 10~(-7).The purity of the obtained monoclonal antibody was more than 98% and recovery reached 75 % after purification. Conclusion The obtained two strains of hybridoma cell lines can secrete MAb stably. The monoclonal antibodies can be used in the research of early pregnancy and tumor diagnosis .
