Objective To reproduce a rabbit model of alginate immune pneumonia, and to study the pathogenic role of alginate on lung tissue. Methods Rabbits of group A, being challenged by saline, served as the control group. Rabbits of group B and C were immunized with seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate respectively. Body temperature,peripheral blood cells and the serum level of circulating immune complex (CIC) were measured after the challenge. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) specimens were incubated and bacterial colonies were counted. The cell number and differential count of BALF were made. The pathological changes of the lung tissue were observed under microscopy. Results In both seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate groups, the peripheral blood cell count and the number of bacterial colonies in BALF were similar to that of the saline group. However, the serum CIC levels and the cell count of BALF were increased significantly after the challenge. Under light microscopy, lymphocyte infiltration and lymphoid follicle formation around the bronchiolus were found in all alginate immunized groups, and there was also narrowing of bronchioli. Conclusion Both seaweed alginate and bacterial alginate could be used to establish the model of alginate immune pneumonia in rabbits. Alginate can cause inflammatory reaction and pathological changes in the rabbit lung, manifesting mainly peribronchilar lymphocytic infiltration and lymphoid follicle formation around the bronchioli.

International Eye Science 2017;17(9):1659-1662
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication that leads to loss of vision after cataract surgery.Neodymium doped:Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnet (Nd:Yag) laser capsulotomy is a common treatment for PCO, but still associated with several complications.In the past decades, the prevention and treatment of PCO have always been a hot spot of research in ophthalmology.This review will address the advances in the prevention and treatment of PCO in the aspects of surgical techniques and types of intraocular lens (IOL).

Objective:To detect the pain status and the pain management of home-based advanced cancer patients, and to investigate the key factors impacting the satisfaction on pain management.Methods:Totally the data of 138 cases from the hospice department in the duration from Jan. 2019 to Jun. 2019 were collected and analyzed by χ2 test with SPSS 23.0. Results:109 cases in 138 cases received analgesics treatment before, 54.13% of these participants expressed satisfaction with the effect of their pain management, and 45.87% showed unsatisfied on their pain management. Cancer clinical stage and PMI (pain management index) were both detected to be the significant factors for satisfaction of pain management ( P<0.05, P=0.029; P<0.01, P=0.001) . Conclusions:Cancer clinical stage and PMI are found to be related to the satisfaction for pain management. The percentage of patients who use opioids increased. while there was still a part of patients suffering from inadequacy of pain management. The pain management for home-based advanced patients needs to be paid more attention by medical staff.

Objective To prepare a new type of micropore porcine acellular dermis matrix with the aid of laser (LPADM),and to validate the healing effect of the LPADM through the phrase Ⅰ composite transplanting on the back of the full- thickness skin defects in SD rats.Methods In vitro,the allogeneic fibroblasts were separately cultured with the LPADM (LPADM group) or the non-pore PADM (non-pore LPADM group),while fibroblasts cultured by pure medium were used as control.After culture of 1 day,3 days and 5 days,the contents of IL-10,IL-6,TGF-β1,LN,VEGF expressed by fibroblasts were determined by double-antibody sandwich ELISA method.In vivo,the phrase Ⅰ transplantations of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin were carried on the backs of the full-thickness cutaneous defects of SD rats.The healing condition was observed and analyzed by histological tests.Results The differences of the absorbance value between the LPADMgroup,PADM group and control group in each day were not statistically significant (F=0.050-1.763,P>0.05).The transplantation of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin graft resulted in high rate of surviving without signs of rejection 3 weeks later.After 1-month of transplantation,the regenerated skin was well enough to be lifted without any serious scars.Conclusions The phrase Ⅰ transplantation of LPADM graft with split-thickness autologous skin graft can accelerate the healing process of full-thickness skin wounds with high biological safety.

Objective To investigate the role of erythrocyte complement receptor type 1 (CR1) in the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria.Methods Venous blood samples were collected from 59 patients with chronic urticaria (including 14 cases of dermatographism and 45 chronic idiopathic urticaria) and 29 healthy human controls.Flow cytometry was carried out to quantify the expression level of CR1,and double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to determine the serum level of immunoglobulin E (IgE),complement C3,C4 and 50% complement hemolytic activity (CH50).Differences in these parameters were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and independent samples t-test,and correlation between these paramenters by Pearson correlation analysis.Results The expression level (expressed as mean fluorescence intensity per 10 000 erythrocytes) of CR1 was significantly higher in patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria than in the healthy controls (35.06 ± 2.06 and 29.17 ± 1.53 vs.20.46 ± 2.57,t =4.20 and 3.33,both P < 0.05),while no statistical difference was observed between the patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria (P > 0.05).Increased total serum IgE levels were observed in patients with dermatographism and chronic idiopathic urticaria compared with the healthy controls ((769.89 ± 123.0) μg/L and (340.09 ± 29.74) μg/L vs.(107.63 ± 88.79) μg/L,t =5.58,5.85,both P < 0.05),and in patients with dermatographism compared with those with chronic idiopathic urticaria (t =3.49,P < 0.05).For patients with chronic urticaria,there was a statistical difference in the expression level of CR1 between individuals (n=22) with total serum IgE levels ranging from 0 to 240 μg/L and those (n =17) higher than 500 μg/L (24.45 ± 10.83 vs.33.09 ± 11.86,t =3.33,P< 0.05).The total serum IgE levels were positively correlated with the level of CR1 (r =0.27,P < 0.05),but uncorrelated with that of complement C3 (r =0.16,P > 0.05) or C4 (r =-0.08,P> 0.05).The level of complement C3 was positively correlated with that of C4 (r =0.54,P < 0.01).One-way ANOVA revealed no significant difference in the serum levels of complement C3,C4,or CH50 between the patients with dermatographism,patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria and healthy controls (all P > 0.05).Conclusion CR1 is abnormally expressed in patients with chronic urticaria.
