Objective To observe the clinical effects of vitreoretinal surgery for myopic foveoschisis,evaluate the visual prognostic factors.Methods Twenty-seven eyes of 23 patients with myopic foveoschisis underwent vitreoretinal surgery were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients had undergone the examinations of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),intraocular pressure,slit lamp microscope,direct ophthalmoscope,binocular indirect ophthalmoscope, A or B ultrasonic scan and optical coherence tomography (OCT).Follow-up duration varied from 6 to 36 months,with the mean of (19.4± 10.03)months.The visual acuity,retinal reattachment and the complications were observed.Logistic regression analysis was performed to predict the prognosis of visual acuity.Results Twenty-one eyes (77.78％) were anatomically reattached, six eyes (22.22％) were not anatomically reattached. Postoperative BCVA improved in 24 eyes (88.89％),reduced or remained unchanged in three eyes (11.11％). No ocular complications such as fundus hemorrhage,low or high intraocular pressure,endophthalmitis were found.The preoperative BCVA (OR =9.11,P =0.007),axial length (OR =0.31, P =0.038) and the photoreceptor inner and outer segment (IS/OS) junction line continuity (OR=4.32,P=0.001) are closely related to visual prognosis.Conclusions Vitreoretinal surgery is an effective approach to treat myopic foveoschisis with both anatomical and visual improvement.The preoperative BCVA,axial length and IS/OS line continuity are closely related to visual prognosis.

Capsular warning syndrome (CWS) is a subtype of recurrent stereotyped transient ischemic attacks that heralds a subsequent stroke.The mainly presumed mechanism is repeated bursts of ischemia in the region of penetrating arteries,since the structural changes of large arteries is rare in series of imaging examinations.The majority of the infarct is located in the internal capsule or pontine.CWS is usually therapeutically resistant to simple traditional antithrombotic treatment,while combined antiplatelet treatment,thrombolysis,endovascular intervention and antiepileptics may protect part of the patients from developing into permanent infarcts.

Cerebral microbleeds are a research focus in the field of cerebrovascular disease in recent years.Cerebral microbleeds have important influence on recurrent stroke,hemorrhagic transformation,cognitive impairment,and treatment options in patients with ischemic stroke.The article reviews the above aspects.

Objective To investigate the effects of left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex with 10HZ , 80%motor threshold repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation ( rTMS ) on the cognitive function in unipolar depression. Method Sixty-nine patients with unipolar depression were randomly assigned to either the real rTMS group or the sham rTMS treatment( the control group) ,all patients were given extended releasing venlafaxine. the cognitive function was evaluated using P300 and Repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status ( RBANS-immediate memory, visuospatial, language, attention, delayed memory, total score), Wisconsin card sorting test ( WCST-Right responses, Completed categories, Total errors , Preservative errors, Nonpreservative errors ). The depression severity was assessed with the 24-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression(HAMD-24). All of tests were examined before and after six weeks with thirty times rTMS. Results At the end of six weeks treatments, regarding the WCST,real rTMS group showed better improvement in the right responses than control group(33.23±10.29 vs 27.09 ± 9.82, F= 16. 116 , P= 0. 000), besides right responses, real rTMS group had better performance in the rest items than control group(F=4.862 ～ 17.758, P= 0.031 ～ 0.000) ;concerning the RBANS, real rTMS group was significantly superior to control group in total score( (88.83 ± 16.48 ) vs (78.85 ± 13.51 ), F= 8. 425,P = 0. 005 ), besides total score , the real rTMS group had better performance in some rest factors than control group (F= 10.088 ～20. 801, P=0. 002 ～0.000);real rTMS group showed better improvement in the amplitude of P3than control group( (8.27 ± 2.97 ) μV vs ( 7.37 ± 2.66) μV, F= 5. 838 , P=0.018 ) ;real rTMS group demonstrated better improvement in HAMD-24 than control group( (4.7 ±2.4)vs ( 11.2 ±5.1 ), F= 29.537, P=0. 000).Conclusion rTMS can significantly improve cognitive function and depressive symptoms with unipolar depression.

Adielectrophoresis-basedmicrofluidicchipappliedtocellspatterningisdesignedandfabricated, and it demonstrates non-contact and batch manipulation of cells. The microfluidic chip employs a PDMS microchannel and two ITO electrodes, which are designed as astep shape. The distribution of electric field caused by the microelectrodes is simulated by finite element simulation software, COMSOL. The position of the maximum intensity of electric field is also determined. The ITO microelectrodes and the PDMS microchannel are fabricated using MEMS fabrication process. After oxygen plasma surface treatment, the PDMS microchannel and glass substrate with the ITO microelectrodes are aligned and bonded to form experimental microfluidic chip. Through DEP experiment with the varying frequencies, DEP response of yeast cells is examined, and the electric field frequency of the both positive and negative DEP responses are confirmed. The results showed that yeast cells in solution conductivity of 60 μS/cm had negative DEP movement at the frequency of 1 kHz to 10 kHz, positive DEP movement at the 500 kHz to 10 MHz, and no DEP movement at the 50 kHz. Under the condition of the sinusoidal potential of 8Vp-p and the electric field frequency of 5 MHz, the yeast cells were aligned into chains along the step edge of microelectrodes.

Objective To explore the treatment and efficiency of high blood flow vascular malformations of oral maxillofacial region with super-selective arterial embolization. Methods 18 cases underwent angiography of the head and neck before treatment and then followed by super-selective catheterization with microcatheter to embolize the feeding vessels of the vascular malformations with PVA. 8 cases underwent surgical excision within 72 hours after the embolization and the other 10 cases passed through the arterial radical emboliztion treatment. Results Technical success ratio reached 100% with no complications causing skin necrosis or incorrect arterial embolization else where in the skull. All 8 cases undergone preoperative embolization showed obviously less bleeding, easier removal of the mass and reduction of operation time. 10 cases with radical arterial embolization manifested reduction of swelling and improvement of organ function within 1 to 24 months after the procedure. 5 patients were cured with only once operation, 4 cases with twice operation and 1 with the thrice. Conclusions Aterial embolization is a safe and effective method in the treatment of high blood flow vascular malformations of oral maxillofacial region.

Background Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) shows good clinical effects for keratoconus,and de-epithelized CXL appears to be benefit to the distribution and absorption of riboflavin in cornea stroma.However,de-epithelization of CXL will increase the infective risk and corneal healing time.It is very important to understand and control the affecting factors of corneal repair after de-epithelization of CXL.Objective This study was to evaluate the characteristics of corneal epithelial repair and analyze the relevant factors affecting corneal healing time after de-epithelized CXL.Methods A series-cases observational study was performed.De-epithelized CXL was performed on 77 eyes of 68 keratoconus patients in Shandong Eye Hospital from September 2013 to September 2015 under the approval of Ethic Committee of this hospital and informed consent of each patient.The age,corneal curvature,corneal thickness,breakup time of tear film (BUT),corneal front astigmatism (Astig) and epithelial healing time of the patients were recorded after surgery.The correlations between corneal epithelium healing time and above-mentioned factors were analyzed.Results De-epithelized CXL was smoothly finished in all the eyes.The corneal epithelium healing time was 2-12 days after surgery,with the average healing time 5 (4,6) days.The mean age,thickness at corneal thinnest point,minimal cornea curvature (Kf),maximal corneal curvature (Ks),corneal average curvature (Km) and Astig was 22.00 (18.00,25.00) years,436 (412,470) μm,47.40 (44.70,50.45) D,52.10 (49.00,54.55) D,50.00 (47.15,53.15) D and-3.30 (-5.45,1.70) D,respectively.Spearman rank correlation analysis showed significant negative correlations between corneal epithelium healing time and BUT or the thickness at corneal thinnest point (BUT:rs =-0.334,P =0.003;corneal thickness:rs =-0.417,P =0.000),and thesignificant positive correlations were found between corneal epithelium healing time and Km,Kf and Ks (Km:rs =0.449,P =0.000;Kf:rs =0.300,P =0.008;Ks:rs =0.432,P =0.000).There were no considerable correlarions between corneal epithelium healing time and age or Astig (age:rs =0.023,P =0.845;Astig:rs =-0.190,P =0.098).Multiple linear regression analysis were carried out to study the dependent variable and independent factors.Because of the multiple co-linearity between variables,this paper corrects the model by using ridge regression.There is significant negative correlation between BUT,corneal thickness and corneal healing time,respectively (both at P＜0.05),corneal curvature Km and Kf is positively correlated with corneal healing time (both at P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The corneal thickness,Kf,Km,as well as BUT are influencing factors of epithelial healing after CXL.
