1.Research progress of ocular decompressive retinopathy
International Eye Science 2019;12(7):1142-1145
Ocular decompression retinopathy(ODR)is defined as multiple hemorrhagic retinopathy following abrupt lowering of intraocular pressure(IOP)that is not explained by another process. It is frequently associated with glaucoma surgeries, but also occurs in conjunction with other ocular surgical or medical procedures. Most patients are asymptomatic, so it may be difficult to detect clinically. We review the recent articles to better understand the risk factors, pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, imaging, differential diagnoses, management and prognosis of ODR.

Objective:
To evaluate the capability of magnetic resonance imaging 3D-sampling perfection with application optimize contrasts using different flip angle evolution (MRI 3D-SPACE) full-volume scanning sequence to detect lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (LEDVT), and to explore the characteristics of the images of LEDVT and surrounding soft tissue at different stages.
Methods:
MRI 3D-SPACE full volume T1WI and T2WI scanning of lower limb were performed on 45 patients diagnosed of LEDVT via digital subtraction angiography (DSA) by Siemens Prisma 3T MRI scanner. 43 cases completed scanning. The location and quantity of vascular segment lesions were recorded, of which the diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were calculated comparing to the gold standard of DSA results. The characteristics of magnetic resonance imaging signals of thrombus and thrombus surrounding soft tissue at different times were summarized.
Results:
According to the location of thrombosis, there were 15 cases of central type, 17 cases of peripheral type and 11 cases of mixed type. In all imaging levels, 272 segments of embolic vessels were found in 3D-space T1WI and 261 segments in 3D-space T2WI. Compared with the DSA results, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the two groups in the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis were: T1 WI: Common iliac vein 97.10%, 97.90%, 98.20%; External iliac vein 96.80%, 97.60%, 97.10%; Internal iliac vein 96.40%, 97.20%, 97.20%; Femoral vein 98.10%, 98.20%, 98.50%; Popliteal vein 94.40%, 93.50%, 93.70%; The anterior tibial vein is 94.30%, 88.50% and 90.40%.

OBJECTIVETo explore the expression of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) in Tca8113 cell, and to investigate its relationship to the chemoresistance. METHODS; The Tca8113 cell line was cultured by IMDM and the concentration of Pingyangmycin (PYM) added to Tca8113 cell line was increased gradually and continually, which was to induce the PYM-resistance in Tca8113 cell line. The sensitivity of Tca8113 cell to PYM and expression of XIAP were measured with methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) chromatometry and reverse transcription-polymerase chain raction (RT-PCR). The XIAP level in the cells and its chemoresistance to PYM were analyzed by linear regression.
RESULTSThe IC50 of Tca8113-1-10 group and Tca8113-10-10 group were(12.758 +/- 0.030), (18.986 +/- 0.150) microg x mL(-1) respectively. The IC50 of Tca8113-1-20 group and Tca8113-10-20 group increased to (26.302 +/- 0.072), (35.294 +/- 0.115) microg x mL(-1) respectively. There was a relation between XIAP and the drug-resistance in Tca8113 cell.
CONCLUSIONXIAP may play an important role in the chemoresistance which might serve as a new therapeutic target for oral squamous cell carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo study the ECG features in children with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and related factors for the occurrence of arrhythmia secondary to DCM.
METHODSData from 68 children with DCM from January 1998 to March 2011 were studied. The children were classified into three groups: severe arrhythmia (n=42), non-severe arrhythmia (n=20) and non-arrhythmia (n=6). Left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVED), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) were compared.
RESULTSAbnormal ECG results were found in all of the 68 children with DCM. Sinus tachycardia (91%) and ectopic pulsatile (86%) were common. LVED in the severe arrhythmia group (74±6 mm) was greater than that in the non-severe arrhythmia group (65±4 mm; P<0.05) and non-arrhythmia group (61±3 mm; P<0.05). LVED in the non-severe arrhythmia group was also greater than that in the non-arrhythmia group (P<0.05). LVEF and LVFS in the severe arrhythmia group were (30±11)% and (22±4)%, respectively, which were lower than those in the non-severe arrhythmia group[(37±12)% and (28±5)%, respectively]and non-arrhythmia group[(45±9)% and (34±7)%, respectively](P<0.05). There were also significant differences in the LVEF and LVFS between the non-severe arrhythmia and non-arrhythmia groups (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSThe common abnormal ECG findings are sinus tachycardia and ectopic pulsatile in children with DCM. Arrhythmia is one of the main clinical manifestations of DCM. The occurrence of arrhythmia is associated with the left ventricular size and heart function.
