Pachychoroid spectrum diseases includes central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC),pachychoroid pigment epitheliopathy,pachychoroid neovasculopathy,and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy,which share common characteristics,including focal or diffused increased choroidal thickness,choroidal hyperpermeability,and dilated choroidal vessels.These diseases are likely to represent a continuum of the same pathogenic process.Similar features and association among them suggest that they may have similar etiology.It is of great clinical significance to understand the composition and typical morphological changes of pachychoroid-related diseases and to explore its possible pathogenesis.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of baicalin on human osteosarcoma MG63 cells apoptosis and the expression of MMPs. METHODS:Treated with 0(blank control),5,10,20,40,80,160,320 μg/ml baicalin for 24 h,the survival rate,the expression amount of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were detected,and IC50 was calculated. Cell apoptosis was observed. RESULTS:Com-pared with blank control group,after treated with baicalin,survival rate of MG63 cells decreased,while apoptotic amount in-creased,the expression amount of MMP-2 and MMP-9 decreased;there was statistical significance in the expression amount de-crease of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in MG63 cells after treated with 320 μg/ml baicalin(P<0.05);IC50 was(40.21±9.20)μg/ml,all responses were in concentration-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS:Baicalin can inhibit the proliferation of MG63 cells,induce cell apoptosis,and inhibit the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in cells under high concentration.

Objective To analyze molecular classification and male breast cancer (MBC) triggers,clinical characteristics in patients with MBC and evaluate the prognosis.Methods 36 MBC patients enrolled in the past 5 years were retrospectively analyzed.100 patients with women breast cancer (WBC) in the same period were randomly selected as control group.The primary pathological type of MBC was the infiltrating ductal carcinoma.According to the expressions of estrogen receptor (ER),progesterone receptor (PR),and the epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2),the MBC can be divided into 4 kinds of molecular subtypes,Luminal type A,Luminal type B,Her-2 type,and Basal-like type.Results The ratio of MBC patients with grade Ⅲ was lower in the Luminal group A than that in the Luminal group B.There were significant differences (x2 =1.197,P ＜ 0.05) between these two groups.Conclusion The incidence rate of MBC is low but the prognosis is poor.The primary pathological type is the infiltrating ductal carcinoma.The ratio of MBC patients with grade Ⅲ is lower in the common Luminal group A than that in the common Luminal group B.

Objective To observe the effects of shenfu injection (SFI) on the awakening quality of the patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis undergoing splenectomy under general anethesia. Methods Forty patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis and hepatic insufficiency (ASA classⅡ~Ⅲ) underwent splenectomy by general anesthesia. Patients were all sent into the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) shortly after the operation with unconscious and no spontaneously breathing. They were randomly divided into two groups: SFI treatment group (Group SFI, n =20) and normal saline controlled group (Group NSC, n = 20). SFI group were treated with SFI (1 mL/kg, i. v.) in 10 minutes, and NSC group were treated with normal saline (1 mL/kg,i.v.). The time of eyes opening, extubation of tracheal catheter and the detention time of PACU were recorded. The heart rate (HR) and the average artery presses (MAP) were monitored at 4 time points: before SFI and normal saline administration, 5 min, 15 min, and 45 min after administration. The incidence of restlessness during the patients awakening period was also recorded. Results The time of eyes opening, extubation and the detention time of PACU of SFI group show no significant difference compared with the NSC group (P > 0.05). SFI and normal saline intravenous injection did not cause significant changes on HR and MAP at the time of 5 min , 15 min and 45 min compared to the time of before administration (P > 0.05). The incidence of restlessness during the patients resuscitation period in SFI group were lower than in NSC group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Shenfu injection can effectively improve the awakening quality and decrease the incidence of restlessness of the patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis undergoing splenectomy under general anesthesia during the awakening period in PACU.

Objective To construct a plasmid expression vector coding for the short hairpin RNA(shRNA) targeting Twist mRNA.Methods Two plasmid expression vectors coding for shRNA targeting 777 and 845 of Twist gene sequence and a control vector containing random DNA fragment were constructed.The recombinant plasmids were identified by PCR,and then transfected separately into bladder cancer cell line T24.The Twist gene silencing effect was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting.Results The expected band of 400 bp was amplified from the plasmids coding for shRNA by PCR.By DNA sequencing,it was the same with the insertion element as with the shRNA of synthetic.Transfection of T24 cells expressing Twist gene with the shRNA plasmids resulted in inhibition of Twist mRNA and protein expressions by 90% and 86%,respectively.The shRNA1 had the most obvious effect in Two types of plasmids interference.Conclusion The plasmid expression vectors coding for shRNA targeting Twist mRNA have been constructed successfully,of which pGenesil-shRNA1 most effectively silences Twist gene in T24 cells.

Objective To investigate the relationship between OHSS and FSHR gene polymorphism. Methods Two hundred and two women were enrolled in this study. The FSHR gene polymorphisms at position 307 and 680 were detected. Results The distribution of the allele frequency and genotype frequency of the position 680 in FSHR gene were significantly different between women with OHSS or not. No significant differences of the position 307 in FSHR gene were observed. Conclusion Themutation of Asn680Ser in FSHR might be closely related with OHSS.

BACKGROUND: Traditional cancellous bone porosity detection methods such as direct method,gas expansion method,mercury injection method,density and osmotic suction measurement have many disadvantages,such as low efficiency,labor-intensive and complexity.OBJECTIVE: To process cancellous bone chips using MATLAB image processing method to calculate cancellous bone porosity.METHODS: Using MATLAB image processing method,the stained cancellous bone images were subjected to uneven lighting removal,image enhancement,binarization,removing interference objectives to obtain binary two-dimensional matrix.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Slice image was composed of bone and pore space.The slice image was segmented to calculate its porosity.This solves the problem of the inequality of light intensity and other interferences in image information that affect the statistics.The image processing and analysis methods of bone slices were performed using MATLAB,which can be used for cancellous bone porosity measurements and be used to explore the distribution and variation of porosity.Selecting different regions to calculate the different porosity of each area can be used to analyze the distribution of the pore.This method provides a method for the study of trabecular bone structure.
