Objective To observe the subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) in eyes of patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).Methods Twenty patients (32 eyes) with DME were enrolled in this crosssectional observational study.The patients included 12 males and eight females,with a mean age of (47.3± 10.2) years.All the patients were examined documenting best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),spectraldomain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ophthalmological examination.According to OCT DME morphology,samples are divided into diffuse macular edema,cystoid macular edema,serous retinal detachment and hard exudate groups.The SFCT was measured by a Cirrus HD-OCT with enhanced depth imaging (EDI) and was compared with the average SFCT (286.84 ± 28.80) μm of same age group.Correlation between SFCT and age,diopter,diabetic duration,fasting blood glucose,BCVA and central retinal thickness were analyzed by Pearson Analysis.SFCT of different DME types were analyzed by ANOVA Analysis.Results The mean SFCT of 32 eyes was (223.81±43.74) μm (ranging from 120.50 to 361.50 μm),which was lower by 63.03 μm (95% confidence interval,-78.80 to-47.26 μm,P<0.01)from normal SFCT.SFCT was independent of age (r=0.124),diopter (r=0.277),diabetic duration (r=0.286),fasting blood glucose (r=0.408),BCVA (r=0.087),and central retinal thickness (r=0.036).There was no significant difference of SFCT between different DME types (F =0.042,P > 0.05).Conclusion SFCT is thinner in eyes with DME as compared to normal eyes of the same age.

Objective To investigate the clinical role of a combination therapy of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(RFA) and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) in large hepatic tumors. Methods Out of 62 patients with hepatocellular carcinomas confirmed by pathology, 21 patients received a combination therapy of TACE and RFA(combination group), 22 patients TACE therapy alone, and the rest 19 patients RFA therapy alone. A total of 106 tumors with a mean diameter of ( 5.9? 0.7) cm(ranged from 5.0 to 8.1 cm) were detected, and the largest tumor was selected for observation in a patient with multiple lesions. There was no significant difference in mean age, tumor size and liver function grade among the three groups.Results Tumor complete necrosis accounted for 80.9%in combination group, which was significantly higher than that of TACE group and RFA group ( 27.2%, 47.4%,P 0.05). Mean survival duration of combination group was 25.6 months, significantly higher than that of TACE group( 14.9 months)(P0.05). Conclusions Compared with TACE or RFA therapy alone, the combination therapy improves tumor complete necrosis rate and prolongs the patients′ survival duration.

Objective To evaluate the life quality in the elderly who underwent internal fixation with cannulated screws and bipolar hemiarthroplasty for the displaced femoral neck fractures. MethodsA retrospective study was performed on 141 cases older than 60 years treated from 1993 to 2004. All cases were followed up for mean 40.2 months to evaluate the differences in regard of pain and daily living at one and three years. Results The daily living in hemiarthroplasty group possessed better outcome than that in internal fixation group at one year, with statistical difference but without statistical difference at three years. There was no statistical differences in postoperative pain relief between both groups. Conclusions Both internal fixation and hemiarthroplasty can relieve pain and revive the life quality of the elderly.

[Objective]To observe whether erythromycin and alendronate are effective in treating aseptic loosening in a murine osteolysis model. [Method]Air pouches were established in the back of BALB/c mice by injecting sterile air subcutaneously. After the air pouches were mature, grafts of calvaria from syngeneic mouse donors were implanted in the air pouches and polyethylene debris was injected into the air pouches. Mice were divided into 4 groups. In the first group, saline was injected into the air pouches.In the other three groups, polyethylene debris was used. Saline,erythromycin and alendronate were injected intraperitoneally separately.Pouch tissues were collected at 14 days after polyethylene debris administration for molecular and histologic analysis.[Result] Both erythromycin and alendronate inhibited osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption, but alendronate was not as effective as erythromycin in anti-inflammation.[Conclusion]Both erythromycin and alendronate can be promising drugs for the treatment of aseptic loosening.
