1.Clinical and histopathological analysis of paediatric patients with orbital space -occupying lesions
International Eye Science 2015;(4):727-729
AIM:To explore the histopathological classification and incidence of orbital space-occupying lesions in children in order to provide references for the diagnosis of orbital space-occupying lesions in children.
METHODS:A total of 290 paediatric patients with orbital space - occupying lesions diagnosed by pathological examinations at the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from January 1998 to December 2012 were retrospectively reviewed.
RESULTS:In 290 paediatric patients with orbital space-occupying lesions, venous hemangioma was the most common (58 cases,20. 0%), the other commons were as follows: hemangio lymphangioma, dermid cyst, neurofibroma, optic nerve glioma, rhabdomyo sarcoma and so on. Capillary hemangioma, venous hemangioma, optic nerve glioma had the predominant age incidence. On the other hand, optic nerve glioma, venous hemangioma, rhabdomyosarcoma had the predominant sex incidence.
CONCLUSION: The majority of paediatric patients with orbital space - occupying lesions are congenital and embryonic lesions, the most common of which is venous hemangioma. Some lesions had the predominant age and sex incidence.
2.The DNA Sequence Difference of ERG11 Gene Between the Yeast-form and the Hyphal-form of Candida albicans
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2003;0(08):-
Objective To explore the difference of gene sequence between the yeast- and the hyphal-form of Candida albicans. Methods The genomic DNA of both the yeast-form and the hyphal-form of seven isolates were extracted. The isolates were obtained from the same patient infected with HIV, but their sensitivities to fluconazole were different. These isolates were derived from the same C.albican strain as identified by chromosomal analysis and DNA subtype analysis. DNA fragments (310 bp) of ERG11 were amplified by PCR and the difference of DNA sequence between the two forms of each isolates was compared by DNA sequencing. Results Three isolates were found to have sequence difference between the yeast- and the hyphal-form of C. albicans at the position of 1 547 bp, 1 587 bp and 1 617 bp. Conclusion The sequence difference of ERG11 gene exists between the yeast- and the hyphal-form of C. albicans.
3.Post-thoracotomy Pain Management(review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2006;12(11):978-980
What characterized post-thoracotomy pain is that companied by marked decrease in pulmonary function,which negatively affect rehabilitation of the patients.In this paper,the author reviewed the effects of clinically common used therapies on pain relief and pulmonary function in patient after thoracotomy.

Objective To explore the nursing experience of the safe intra-hospital transport of patients with the severe aspiration of the inhalation injury. Method The nursing measures for the intra-hospital transport of 2 cases of smoke pot inhalation injury caused by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation treatment were taken, including disease risk assessment, preparation for transport, organization of a transport team, effective vital signs monitoring during transport, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) pipeline monitoring and nursing and observation and nursing of complications. Result No emergency was found during the transport of patients and both of them were safely transported. Conclusion Such nursing measures as pre-transport assessment and preparation and bettering predictive nursing for the patients with severe inhalation pulmonary injury treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation are key to the safety during intra-hospital transport.

Objective Valsartan, the angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor blocker, is recently proved to reduce urinary albumin at the microalbuminuria stage in human diabetic nephropathy without altering glucose metabolism. But the pathway is still uncertain. In present study, we examined the changes of adrenomedullin receptor (ADMR) mRNA and protein expressions in the renal cortex of diabetic rats to investigate the protective effects of valsartan on an experimental model of diabetic renal injury. Method The SD rats were randomly divided into following groups: normal rats, STZ-induced diabetic rats, and diabetic rats treated with valsartan. STZ-induced diabetic rats were treated with valsartan (10mg/kg body weight) or vehicle for 8 weeks. The expressions of ADMR mRNA in renal cortex were analyzed by RT-PCR, as well as ADMR protein expressions were detected through western blot. Results We found (1) Valsartan treatments reduced urinary albumin excretion in 24h, compared with the untreated. But no notable difference was seen in HbA1c and blood sugar of diabetic rats between the two groups. (2) Valsartan treatments increased the expressions of ADMR mRNA and protein in diabetic rats renal cortex. Conclusion These results indicate that valsartan treatment can upgrade the expressions of ADMR in the renal cortex of diabetic rats. It may be one of renal protective pathways of Ang Ⅱ type 1 receptor blocker.

[Objective] To compare the axial length (AL) measured with IOLMaster and contact A-Scan in eyes with macular edema (ME) and to investigate the correlation between measurement difference and foveal thickness.[Methods] Sixty-seven ME eyes of 42 patients (ME group) and 40 healthy eyes of 30participants (control group) were enrolled in this study.Foveal thickness was measured with 3D optical coherence topography (OCT)-1000.The AL was prospectively measured by IOLMaster and contact A-scan,The correlation between measurement difference and foveal thickness was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.[Results] Mean foveal thickness of ME eyes was (377.85± 119.84) μm.Mean AL by IOLMaster and contact A-scan were (22.95±0.97) mm and (22.82±1.04) mm in ME group,and (23.21±1.08) mm and (23.17 ± 1.15) mm in the control group respectively.The difference between two groups was statistically significant (t=-3.102,P=0.003).There was no correlation between measurement difference and foveal thickness in ME group (r=-0.097; P =0.447).[Conclusion]s There is a difference of AL measurements using contact A-scan and IOLMaster in ME eyes.However,there was no correlation between measurement difference and the foveal thickness.

40), the values of BIS, electromyogram (EMG), signal quality index (SQI), mean arterial pressure(MAP), and heart rate(HR) were recorded every minute for 5min, then additional vecuronium (0.05mg/kg) was administered, and the values of the parameters above mentioned were registered for the next 10min. Results BIS value decreased significantly 3 min after the administration of the additional vecuronium (P0.05). Conclusion A misleading BIS value may be caused by the decline of muscle relaxant during the maintenance stage of propofol/fentanyl anesthesia, which greatly influence the accuracy of BIS monitoring.
