Objective To investigate curative effects of endoscopic sternocleidomastoid muscle amputation for the treatment of congenital muscular torticollis.Methods A total of 23 children with congenital muscular torticollis were treated in this department.Their age was 1 month ~ 12 years old(median,30 months).A 5 mm trocar was inserted through the right axilla along the cleavage lines.Under the endoscopic visualization,the sarcolemma on the inferior portion of the muscle was bluntly dissected and a subcutaneous space was established by CO_2 inflation at the pressure of 6 mm Hg.Another two 3 mm incisions were made along the cleavage lines at lower lateral part of the neck and the anterior chest wall for the introduction of curved forceps and electric knife,respectively.The sternocleidomastoid muscle was transected with electrocautery and the external fascia within which the sternocleidomastoid muscle resides was also adequately divided. Results The operation was successfully completed under endoscope in all the 23 children.The mean operation time was 51.2 min(range,(35~)135 min) and the intraoperative blood loss was

Objective To study changes of?-glutamyltransferase(GGT)and its isoenzyme in urine and renal cortex of rats with subacute cadmium exposure.Methods Sixty healthy SD male rats were chosen and divided randomly into control group,middle dose group and high dose group,which were orally dosed daily with feed containing0,5and10mg cadmium per kg for six weeks.The activities of GGT and its isoenzyme in urine and renal cortex of the rats were determined in the3rd and6th week respectively.Re sults During the whole experimental period,the body weights and kidney to body weight ratios of control group,middle dose group and high dose group showed no significant differences.The GGT activities of middle dose group and high dose group increased significantly with the prolongation of exposure to cadmium and the increase of cumulative exposure compared with those in the control group.Unusual bands of GGT isoenzyme in the urine and renal cortex homogenate were found in the3rd week and the incidence of unusual bands of GGT isoenzyme was100percent in the6th week in the cadmium-treated rats of middle dose group and high dose group.Con clusion The GGT activities and the unusual bands of GGT isoen-zymes in the urine and renal cortex could be used as sensitive indexes to identify the renal toxic effects induced by cadmium.

The experimental right cerebral contusion model was established in rats.To observe the relationship between the expression of Nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1)and time elapsed after cerebral contusion,the expression of Nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1)and mRNA was studied by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization at different intervals after cerebral injury.The results indicated that a positive relationship existed between the expression of NOS1 and NOS1 mRNA and the intervals elapsed after brain injury.This method also can be used to distinguish antemortem and postmortem injury rat′s cerebral contusion.So that,the expression of NOS1 and NOS1 mRNA is of great value for timing of brain injury.

Objective To observe the influence of low protein diet with α-keto acid on kidney sclerosis and renin-angiotensin system in renal ablation rats. Methods Chronic renal failure rat model was established by renal ablation in 30 male SD rats,then the animals were randomly assigned to the following diet groups:normal protein group (NPD:18%casein protein),low protein group (LPD:6%casein protein) and supplemented low protein group (LK:5%casein protein+1%α-keto acids).Ten male SD sham-operated rats received 18%casein protein as control.All the rats were killed at the end of the 12th week.Pathologic changes were assessed by PAS staining.Ang II in homogenate and plasma were measured by radioimmunoassay and ELISA respectively.Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were used to detect the protein expression of TGF-β1,renin and AT1R.Real-time PCR was used to detect the gene expression of renin and ATla,the main subtype of AT1 receptor. Results Body weight,total protein and serum albumin had not significant difference among the four groups(all P>0.05).Serum creatinine and proteinuria of nephrectomized rats were significantly higher compared to the control group (all P<0.05).Proteinuria of the LK group was lower than that of NPD and LPD groups (all P<0.05).Pathological results indicated fibrosis indices were significantly improved after LPD and LK intervention.Expressions of renin,Ang II and AT1R in LK group were significantly lower than those in NPD group (all P<0.05). Conclusions Low protein diet with α-keto acids supplement therapy exhibits renal protective effects of reducing urine protein excretion and improving renal fibrosis,which might be related to the attenuation of local renin-angiotensin system in activity nephrectomized rats.

Background Phakic posterior chamber implantable contact lens (PPC-ICL) or phakic posterior chamber Toric implantable contact lens (PPC-TICL) implantation is an effective way for the correction of high myopia or high myopia with astigmia,but it often has residual myopic power.Excimer laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) can correct the residual myopia following PPC-ICL or PPC-TICL,but its effectiveness and safety deserve attention.Objective This study was to analyze the clinical effectiveness and safety of LASEK for residual myopia after PPC-ICL implantation for extreme high myopia.Methods A prospective cases-observational study was performed,and written informed consent was obtained from each patient before any surgery.Fourteen eyes of 9 patients with residual myopia following PPC-ICL or PPC-TICL for the eyes with spherical equivalent refraction of ≥-20.00 D were collected in the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from July 2010 to March 2015,including PPCICL implantation in 8 eyes and PPC-TICL implantation in 6 eyes.LASEK were performed on the eyes to correct the residual myopic power.Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),haze,the distance of intraocular lens to lens,corneal thickness,corneal topography,corneal endothelial cell counting,intraocular pressure (IOP) and fundus were examined and compared before and after surgery.The effectiveness and safety of the surgery were evaluated.Results The operation was smooth and no complication was found after surgery in all of the eyes.The UCVA and BCVA were significantly different in the eyes among before surgery,6 months after PPC-ICL implantation and 12 months after LASEK (F =31.360,1.778;both at P<0.05),and the UCVA after LASEK was higher than BCVA before LASEK.The refractive powers were (-22.27-±4.29),(-3.75±2.25) and (-0.42±0.63) D before surgery,6 months after PPC-ICL implantation and 12 months after LASEK,showing a significant difference among them (F=46.370,P<0.05),and the refractive power was considerably lower after LASEK than that before surgery and after PPC-ICL implantation (both at P<0.05).No significant difference was found in IOP or corneal endothelial cell counting in operated eyes among before surgery,6 months after PPC-ICL implantation and 12 months after LASEK (F=1.663,1.055;both at P>0.05).The distance of intraocular lens to lens was (0.69±0.26)mm in the eyes after LASEK and (0.71 ±0.29)mm in the eyes after PPC-ICL implantation,with no significant difference between them (t =0.192,P>0.05).Conclusions PPC-ICL or PPC-TICL implantation for the correction extreme high myopia often remains a certain degree of myopia,and LASEK for the correction of residual refractive power is safe and effective.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of flavored Siwu granules in the clinical adjuvant treatment for phlegm and blood stasis mutual junction retinal vein occlusion.
METHODS: Sixty patients (60 eyes) were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, both with retinal laser photocoagulation and intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide, but the treatment group used flavored siwu granules. Vision, fundus change, fundus fluorescein angiography, clinical syndrome of traditional Chinese medicine ( TCM ), hemorheology examination and safety assessment were evaluated before and 8wk after treatment.
RESULTS: At 8wk after treatment, there were differences on vision improvement, retinal circulation time, whole blood low shear viscosity and total efficient rate of clinical syndrome of TCM, compared with control group(P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Flavored siwu granules adjuvant for phlegm and blood stasis mutual junction retinal vein occlusion can improve visual acuity and reduce the eye complications.
