Objective To detect the changes of function of blood-aqueous barrier in different Syndrome stages of patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome in order to provide the appropriate therapy. Methods According to clinical manifestation, 77 patients (144 eyes) with VKH syndrome were divided into 4 groups: 10 cases in posterior uvietis stage group (20 eyes), 27 in anterior uveal involvement stage group (50 eyes), 23 in recurrent anterior uvitis stage group (41 eyes), and 17 in convalescent stage group (33 eyes). The other 50 cases (100 eyes) were in the control group. Flare and cells of anterior chamber in patient with VKH Syndrome at different stages were graded and measured by laser flare and cell meter (LFCM) and slitlamp microscope. Results According to the results of slitlamp biomicroscopy, anterior chamber flare and cells were at the 0 grade in the patients at posterior uvietis stage (20 eyes). The results of LFCM examination revealed that the flare value and cells were (9.7?3.4) pc/ms and (0.9?0.6)/0.5 mm3 in posterior uvietis stage group, and (5.3?2.3) pc/ms and (0.8? 0.6)/0.5 mm3 in the control group. The differences between the two groups were significant (P

The clinical data of 380 patients undergoing loop electrosurgical excision procedure(LEEP) conization for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3(CIN3) at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk factors of positive margin and residual lesions following conization. One hundred and twelve cases (29.5%) had positive margins, and the risk factors for positive margins were positive high-risk human papillomavirus ( OR=4.92, 95% CI: 1.81-13.36), high-grade lesions on thin cytologic test (TCT)screening ( OR=3.95, 95% CI: 2.42-6.42), and glandular involvement ( OR=3.58, 95% CI: 1.93-6.63). The hysteretomy was performed following conization in 169 hundred and sixty-nine patients who had difficulty in follow-up or no fertility intension, among whom 51 (30.2%) had residual lesions; logistic regression analysis showed that positive margins on LEEP were a risk factor for residual lesions at the time of hysterectomy ( OR: 2.83, 95% CI: 1.44-5.59). The study indicates that positive HR-HPV, high-grade TCT lesions, and lesions involving glands are risk factors for positive margins in CIN3 patients undergoing LEEP conization; and positive margins is risk factor for residual lesions following conization,to which more attention should be paid in clinical practice.

Objective To analyze the methylation status and protein expression of Ras association domain family- 1A (RASSF1A) in endometriosis (EMS). Methods The ectopic and corresponding eutopic endometrium tissues were collected from 45 women with EMS and normal endometrium tissues of 20 women without EMS. The methylation status of RASSF1A was examined by methylation specific PCR (MSP). Immunohistochemistry was performed to measure the level of RASSF1A in endometrium tissues. Results The RASSF1A protein expression rate in ectopic endometrium, eutopic endometrium, and normal endometrium was 37.78%(17/45), 60.00%(27/45) and 85.00%(17/20), and there was significant difference (χ2 = 13.136, P = 0.001). The frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A was 55.56%(25/45), 33.33%(15/45) and 0 in ectopic endometrium , eutopic endometrium, and normal endometrium, and there was significant difference (χ2 =18.770, P = 0.000). The frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A had no significant differnce throughout the menstrual cycle in ectopic endometrium and eutopic endometrium: 66.67%(14/21) vs. 45.83%(11/24), 38.10%(8/21) vs. 29.17%(7/24), P>0.05. In ectopic endometrium, the frequency of aberrant methylation of RASSF1A inⅢ-Ⅲstage was significantly higher than that in Ⅰ-Ⅱstage (χ2=5.940, P=0.015). In ectopic endometrium and eutopic endometrium, the RASSF1A protein expression had negative correlation with aberrant methylation of RASSF1A (r =- 0.594、- 0.577, P<0.01). Conclusions Epigenetic inactivation of RASSF1A through aberrant promoter methylation may be strongly correlated with the formation and progression of EMS, and assessment of RASSF1A methylation status in eutopic endometrium may be a potentially useful biomarker to enhance the early detection of EMS.

Objective To improve recognition of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in children. Methods Two children with PRES admitted to children's hospital were included. Clinical data were retrospectively studied and related literatures were reviewed. Results The primary diseases of the two patients are systemic lupus erythematosus and nephritic syndrome, respectively. They all developed an acute onset of headache, visual changes, consciousness disturbance, hypertension and seizures. Cranial MRI showed bilateral parietal, temporal and occipital cortical or subcortical lesions with hypointensity on Tl-weighted imaging and hyperintensity on T2-weighted imaging. Clinical symptoms resolved soon and radiographic recovery occurred within 14 to 21 days with prompt anti-hypertension treatment and supportive care. Among the mechanisms which might contribute to the development of PRES, acute elevated blood pressure seems to be the most important factors in these two cases. Prompt anti-hypertension treatment usually can reverse the PRES lesion. Conclusions It is important to improve cognition of PRES in children. Delayed treatment can cause permanent neurological impairment. Doctors should be alert to this syndrome. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are very important. (J Clin Pediatr,2010,28(2):168-170)
