Objective To compare the effect of laparoscopic thymectomy on immune function and inflammatory factors in patients with myasthenia gravis.Methods 80 patients with myasthenia gravis treated by thymectomy were selected,and they were divided into observation group and control group according to the random number method,each group in 40cases.The observation group was treated with video assisted thoracoscopic surgery,the control group was treated by thoracotomy.All the patients were followed up for outpatient visits in 3 months.The incidences of myasthenia gravis crisis in the two groups were compared and the ratio postoperative humoral immunoglobulin levels and inflammation related factor changes were observed.Results The operation time of the observation group [(118.6±11.3)min] was shorter than (138.5±13.8)min of the control group (t=7.056,P<0.05).The amount of bleeding of the observation group [(96.6±3.8)mL] was less than (125.5±5.6)mL of the control group (t=27.008,P<0.05).The hospitalization time of the observation group [(7.2±0.3)d] was shorter than (10.8±1.1)d of the control group (t=19.969,P<0.05).The incidence rate of myasthenia gravis crisis in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (1 patient vs 9 cases,x2=5.600,P=0.018).The levels of IgM,IgG and IgA in the observation group were (1.65±0.03)mg/L,(9.55±0.12)mg/L,(3.99±0.20)mg/L respectively, which were higher than (1.31±0.02)mg/L,(8.82±0.10)mg/L,(1.81±0.13)mg/L in the control group(t=59.640,29.557,57.800,all P<0.05).The IL-6,TNF-α,IL-1,hs-CRP levels in the observation group were (34.5±6.1)ng/mL,(12±0.2)ng/mL,(0.60±0.1)g/mL,(10.3±1.0)mg/L respectively, which were lower than (153±14.1)ng/mL,(18.1±0.5)ng/mL,(0.92±0.2)g/mL,(31.3±2.0)mg/L in the control group (t=48.784,71.641,9.051,59.397,all P<0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic thymectomy for myasthenia gravis has short operative time and less bleeding.It has little effect on the humoral immune function of the patients and can significantly reduce the inflammatory response and promote the recovery of the patients.
4.Understanding the classification and new treatment trend of idiopathic macular hole to improve its diagnosis and treatment outcome
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2017;33(4):333-335
Appropriate classification and staging is the basis for the diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic macular hole (IMH).According to the appearance of vitreous and retina determined by optical coherence tomography,IMH can be classified as primary or secondary IMH,and IMH with or without vitreous attachment;Vitreous attachment can be further classified as vitreomacular adhesion or vitreomacular traction.According to the measured horizontal diameter,IMH can be classified as large,middle and small IMH.This new classification system and comprehensive parameters improve the traditional Ⅳ-stage theory,with a better description of the occurrence and development of IMH process.It should be used as the general principal to guide IMH classification,evaluation of surgical indications,selection of operative method,and estimation of surgical outcome.Ganglion cell damage caused by internal limiting membranes (ILM) peeling is the major concern in the IMH vitreoretinal surgery.For complicated and large IMH,inverted ILM flapping can improve the closure rate;ILM peeling and postoperative face-down posture are not necessary for IMH less than 250um in diameter.The current vitreoretinal surgery trend to treat IMH is personalized surgical treatment,following the existing evidence-based medical evidence,and based on the new classification information,ocular and systemic features of each patient.

7.Research progress of aspartyl-(asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase in tumors
Cancer Research and Clinic 2015;27(4):280-282
Aspartyl-(asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase (AAH) is a type 2 transmembrane protein and a member of the α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase family of proteins.AAH catalyzes hydroxylation of specific aspartyl and asparaginyl residues in epidermal growth factor-like domains of proteins.Overexpression of AAH is found in many types of cancer tissues,however,AAH expression is found only in normal placenta and paranephros tissues.AAH can translocate to cell membrane from endoplasmic reticulum membrane when it is overexpressed in cancer cell,which hydroxylate proteins such as Notch,Jagged,and cellular adhesion molecules that regulate cell migration and invasion.AAH is a potential biomarker for cancer diagnosis.
