Objective: To study the morphologic differences and nutritional components of the natural and broken Masson pine pollen. Methods: Pure pollen was collected from Masson pine (Pinus Massoniana Lamb) and the dry pollen was broken by high speed low temperature air flow technique. Their morphologic changes were observed under scan electronic microscopy. The nutritional components of pollen were analyzed.Results: The pollen particle consists of two air bags and one main part, like a mushroom cap. The main morphologic change of broken pollen was that the air bags were separated from pollen particles, and the main part of pollen particles became enriched. The physical characteristics of pollen were changed in container and its fluidity was lost. The broken pollen had very strong adhesiveness. So it could not fly like natural pollen. In broken pollen, the rough fiber, cellulose and semi cellulose contents decreased significantly. Total energy, total lipid, and starch contents increased remarkably. The water soluble and fat soluble components also increased greatly. The total amino acids content of broken pollen was higher than natural pollen except Cys, Arg and Met, and free amino acids were also higher except Cys, Gly and Met. In broken pollen, the amount of lipids extracted by ether increased sharply, nearly 7 times more than natural pollen.Conclusion: It is considered that some nutritional components of natural pollen can be released after broken. Because most of the lipids in pollen are easily oxidized, broken pollen can not be stored for long time.

The implantation of the foldable multifocal intraocular lens,a new pseudophakia intraocular substitute,needs only a small incision and the post-operative complications are rare.The incoming light can be refracted into several fo-cuses.Improved visual acuities both for far and near distance are obtained,which downregulated the glasses-wearing rate.This article summarizes the theories and designs,implantation,clinical application,theropeutic outcomes,and complications of this type of multifocal intraocular lens.

The volatile oil is the main component in the leaves of Perilla frutescens. According to the main types of monoterpenoids or aromatic compounds, it can be divided into different chemotypes and the main chemotypes of Chinese producing Perilla are PA type (mainly containing Perilla aldehyde and limonene), PK type (mainly containing perillaketone) and PP type (subdivided as PP-a type, with apiole as its main component; PP-m type, with myristicin as its main component; PP-e type, with elemicin as main component; PP-as type, with asarone as main component). Based on the biosynthetic pathways analysis, we also found that the formation of the particular chemotype is usually controlled by a single gene or a few genes, and different types have different pharmacological effects. In this paper, the classification under the species P. frutescens, main chemotypes of the volatile oil, and their biogenesis and regulation, pharmacological effect and influence factors are summarized and reviewed.

ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1)subtypes and the relationship with transmission routes in Shenzhen city. MethodsThe epidemiological survey was conducted in 429 subjects with HIV-1 infection.Vein blood was collected and prepared with anticoagulation.Thereafter,the viral nucleic acid was extracted and subsequently amplified for HIV-1 env,gag genes by reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction. The viral sequences were analyzed using Mega software and compared with those in HIV database. The HIV-1 subtypes were confirmed and evolutionary tree was established. The gene discrete rate of different subtypes was calculated.ResultsFour hundred qualified samples were identified as CRF01_AE (n=207),CRF07_BC (n=115),CRF08 _BC (n=14),CRF02_AG (n=1),B (n=49) and C(n=14),respectively.CRF01_AE was the predominant subtype that was detected in the subjects with different transmission routes,such as homosexual contact,heterosexual contact,intravenous drug use and hospital-acquired infection. Among these,sexual contact was the most common route.There were nine cases infected with subtype B HIV-1 in 10 case who were blood borne. The gene discrete rate was more significant in subtype B HIV-1 compared to the other subtypes.According to the evolutionary tree analysis,the viruses under the same subtype formed the relatively independent clusters by different transmission routes. But some overlaps were observed as well. Conclusions Tbere are many HIV-1subtypes in HIV-1 infected subjects in Shenzhen, while the recombinant viruses present as the predominant form.Transmission routes are various with sexual contact as the most common route.Every subset distributes unevenly and forms its own characteristic.Overlap can be observed among the gene distribution of different HIV-1 subtypes.

Objective To explore the effect of compound Tropicamide eye drop in pseudomyopia preventive treatment and summerize key points of nursing.Methods Sixty-six cases of juveniles with pseudomyopia were selected from patients in the Department of Ophthalmology, which were randomly divided into the experiment group(n=33)and control group(n=33). The control group used Atropine eye drop for treatment every night while the experiment group used compound Tropicamide. Both of Treatment durations were 30 days and the effects of the two groups after 10~30d were compared.Result The curative effect in the experiment group was significantly better than that of the control group(P<0.01)with statistically difference.Conclusions Effect of compound Tropicamide eye drop in treatment of juvenile pseudomyopia is better than that of Atropine eye drop. Recommendations and notes about the prevention and treatment of juvenile pseudomyopia should be provided for education.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect and adverse reactions of radioactive seed interstitial brachytherapy com-bined with etoposide (EP) regimen concurrent chemoradiotherapy treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Methods:All 24 cases of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer received three-dimensional conformal intensity modulated radiation therapy by using 6 MV X-ray to obtain 95%60-66 Gy/30-33 F planning target volume. All cases received radiation therapy five times a week. EP regimen chemotherapy concurrent with radiotherapy was given to 24 patients. The therapy included VP-16, 60 mg/m2 intravenous in-fusion for 1 d to 5 d, and DDP 50 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on the 1st, 8th, and 28th therapy day. Chemotherapy with EP regimen was given for four cycles, in which two cycles were given during radiotherapy and the remaining cycles were completed after radiotherapy. The patients were reexamined three months after concurrent chemoradiotherapy was completed. Patients with residual tumor, con-firmed via positron emission tomography/computed tomography, underwent 125I radioactive seed implantation interstitial brachytherapy to complement the dose of tumor. Results: The response rate was 83.3% (20/24); the local control rates of 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months were 87.5% (21/24), 83.3% (20/24), 75.0% (18/24), 70.8% (17/24), 58.3% (14/24), and 50.0% (12/24). The median survival was 20.2 months. The one-year survival rate was 62.5%, and the two-year survival rate was 37.5%. The following main toxicities were observed:the incidence of radiation-induced lung injury was 25%;the incidence of radiation esophagitis was 33.3%;the incidence of grades Ⅰ to Ⅱ gastrointestinal reactions was 82.3%; the incidence of reducing neutropenia was 87.5%, in which the incidence of gradesⅠtoⅡwas 75.0%, gradeⅢwas 12.5%, and gradeⅣwas 0%. Conclusion:EP regimen concurrent radiotherapy and chemo-therapy combined with radioactive seed interstitial brachytherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer is effective and has few serious adverse reactions, thus making this approach worthy of promotion.
