To assess the postoperative outcomes of piggyback implantation using Acrysof Toric intraocular lens ( lOL ) in high myopia combined with corneal astigmatism.
●METHODS: Sixty patients who had phacoemulsification with lOL implantation due to high myopia, cataract and corneal astigmatism from January 2010 to June 2013 were randomly divided into observation group (piggyback Toric lOL implantation, both an Acrysoft lQ Toric lOL and a minus foldable acrylic three piece lOL were implanted in the capsular bag, n= 30) and control group (foldable lOL implantation, n = 30). Postoperative follow - up went on 6mo. lnformation collected included uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA), lOL position, residual astigmatism and complications.
● RESULTS: The UCVA increased from 3. 52 ± 0. 03 preoperatively to 4. 78±0. 01 at 6mo postoperatively in the observation group, from 3. 51±0. 03 preoperatively to 4. 30± 0. 13 at 6mo postoperatively in the control group. The observation group's postoperative UCVA was better than that of the control group. There was statistically significant difference ( t = 3. 612, P < 0. 05 ). The preoperative corneal astigmatism was 2. 97 ± 0. 87 (1. 70 -4. 27) D in the observation group and 2. 92 ± 0. 97 (1. 50 -4. 90)D in the control group. The postoperative residual astigmatism was 0. 48 ± 0. 23 ( 0. 25 - 1. 00 ) D in the observation group and 2. 87 ± 1. 11 (1. 00 - 5. 20) D in the control group. There was statistically significant difference postoperatively (t = - 11. 995, P < 0. 05) between the two groups. No complications occurred.
●CONCLUSlON: Piggyback implantation using Toric lOL can help to solve the problem of no matching Toric lOL power for the high myopia combined with corneal astigmatism at the current stage. lt improves the UCVA and reduces the astigmatism after the cataract surgery.

Objective To investigate expression of CXCR4 and CXCR7 protein and mRNA, which are the receptors of stromal cell derived factor-1α(SDF-1α), in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs);to explore the role of SDF-1α/CXCR4/CXCR7 axis in migration of BMSCs in vitro and the possible mechanism .Method BMSCs were isolated from rats and cultured in vitro.CD29, CD44 and CD34 of the cells were identified by flow cytometry .CXCR4-selective antagonist AMD 3100 and CXCR7-specific neutralizing antibody were applied to block CXCR 4 and CXCR7 respectively.The expressions of CXCR4 and CXCR7 mRNA and protein on BMSCs were detected with RT-PCR and Western blotting .Transwells chamber test was used to observe the migration of BMSCs .The BMSCs were divided into the BMSCs group ( A ) , the AMD3100 pretreated BMSCs group ( B ) , the CXCR7-specific neutralizing antibody pretreated BMSCs group(C), the AMD3100 +CXCR7-specific neutralizing antibody pretreated BMSCs group ( D).Result Flow cytometry showed that the expressions of CD 44 and CD29 were positive, while the expression of CD34 was negative in the third passage of BMSCs (P3-BMSCs).CXCR4 and CXCR7 protein and mRNA were both expressed in P3-BMSCs. Compared with the A group, the expression of CXCR4 and CXCR7 protein declined significantly in the B group and the D group;the protein expression of CXCR7 in the C group was lower compared with the A group (P<0.05).However, the expression of CXCR4 mRNA and CXCR7 mRNA had no significant difference between groups .SDF-1αfactor promoted migration of BMSCs ( P <0.05 ).Compared with the 0μg/L group, the numbers of migrated cells were increased significantly in both of the 10μg/L group and the 100μg/L group ( P<0.01 ) .The number of migration of BMSCs was significantly higher in the 100μg/L group than that of the 10μg/L group ( P <0.01 ) .AMD3100 and CXCR7-specific neutralizing antibody both inhibited significantly the migration of BMSCs ( P<0.05 ) , and the attenuate effect was more significant when they worked together ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion CXCR4 and CXCR7 receptors are co-expressed in P3-BMSCs;the SDF-1αfactor can promote the migration of BMSCs in the concentration dependent manner ;SDF-1α/CXCR4/CXCR7 axis is involved in the migration of BMSCs , and both of the CXCR4 and CXCR7 receptors have a synergistic promoting effect to the BMSCs migration .

Objective To investigate the roles of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) and phosphorylated Akt (P-Akt) in the pathogenesis of cervical squamous cell carcinoma and condyloma acuminatum.Methods Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the expressions of PI3K and P-Akt in tissue specimens from the lesions of 30 cases of cervical squamous cell carcinoma,30 cases of condyloma acuminatum and the prepuce of 15 normal human controls.The average optical density and gray scale values were calculated and analyzed by t test and F test respectively.Results The expressions of PI3K and P-Akt were observed in only the basal layer of the epidermis of control specimens,but in the whole epidermis of condyloma acuminatum tissue specimens.Cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissue specimens displayed a stronger expression of PI3K and P-Akt compared with the control and condyloma acuminatum tissue specimens.As immunohistochemistry revealed,the average absorbance value for PI3K and P-Akt was 0.28 ±0.05 and 0.20 ± 0.07 respectively in cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissue specimens,0.22 ± 0.04 and 0.17 ± 0.03 respectively in condyloma acuminatum tissue specimens,and 0.16 ± 0.04 and 0.10 ± 0.02 respectively in the control tissue specimens; significant differences were observed in the expressions of PI3K and P-Akt among the three groups of tissue specimens (F =44.87,20.64,respectively,both P ＜ 0.01 ).The results of Western blot were consistent with those of immunohistochemistry,and there was a significant difference in the gray scale value for PI3K and P-Akt between cervical squamous cell carcinoma,condyloma acuminatum and control tissue specimens (3.48 ± 0.48 vs.1.99 ± 0.11 vs.1.00 ± 0.03,F=354.83,P＜ 0.01; 3.33 ± 0.26 vs.1.96 ± 0.11 vs.1.00 ± 0.03,F=302.33,P＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions The PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is abnormally activated in condyloma acuminatum and cervical squamous cell carcinoma,and human papilloma virus may cause the abnormal proliferation of infected epithelium likely by affecting the upregnlated expression of PI3K/P-Akt.

To improve the efficiency of halophilic actinobacteria screening and carry out the rapid selection of targeted strains, we tested 34 strains of Streptomonospora by PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism analysis (PCR-SSCP) based on genus-specific primers for the PCR identification. This approach employs PCR with two pairs of primers located in the 16S rRNA sequence flanking two variable region, then build clustering tree according as SSCP data. Synchronously, we sequenced all the 16S rRNA partial sequences for these strains to verify them. The results showed that the PCR-SSCP analysis was an efficient, easy-to-handle and economic method for rapid selection of halophilic actinobacteria resources.

Objective To investigate the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and its influence factors among people living with HIV /AIDS (PLWHA) ,and provide evidence for developing relevant interventions and treatment methods .Methods Anony-mously completed questionnaires ,including self-designed questionnaire and the post-traumatic checklist civilian version (PCL-C) , were received from PLWHA in Suizhou from December 2014 to March 2015 .Descriptive analysis and multivariate logistic regres-sion analysis were used to examine factors associated with PTSD .Results Among 243 qualified PLWHA ,106 of them were positive with PTSD (43 .62% ) ,and the prevalence of PTSD among male and female were 37 .88% and 50 .45% ,respectively .Among the three characteristic symptoms ,repeated flashback was the highest (78 .60% ) ,then hyper-vigilance (64 .20% ) ,and the positive rate of avoidance/numbness was the lowest (57 .20% ) .Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that female was more suscepti-ble to PTSD than male (OR = 1 .960 ,95% CI :1 .025 - 3 .747) ,discrimination or unfair treatment would increase the risk of PTSD (OR= 2 .967 ,95% CI :1 .498 - 5 .876) ,and the frequency of fear/tension was positive correlated with PTSD (occasionally OR =2 .074 ,95% CI :1 .008 - 4 .265 ;always OR = 6 .690 ,95% CI :2 .708 - 16 .531) .Conclusion PLWHA had a high level of PTSD ,and fe-male PLWHA and those who felt fear/tension or experienced discrimination/unfair treatment were more likely to suffer from PTSD .
