International Eye Science 2016;16(11):2112-2114
AIM:To explore the effect of comprehensive therapy in the treatment of fungal corneal ulcer and clinical outcome.
METHODS:A total of 159 cases 159 eyes fungal corneal ulcer patients took comprehensive therapy of 10 measures, followed up more than 3mo to observe the treatment effect and the final visual acuity in our hospital for treatment.
RESULTS: The average hospitalization time of fungal corneal ulcer was(12. 11±5. 13) d. A total of 148 cases of 148 eyes were cured, and the cure rate was 93. 1%;improvement in 8 cases, accounted for 5. 0%; 3 cases were ineffective, accounted for 1. 9%. The final visual acuity of 89 eyes ≥0. 3, accounted for 56. 0%(89/159). The final visual acuity of 136 eyes ≥0. 1, accounting for 85. 5%(136/159), and accounting for 91. 9% in 148 cured patients.
CONCLUSION: The comprehensive therapy in the treatment of fungal corneal ulcer has higher cure rate and visual acuity.

Aim To investigate the effect of low molecular N-trimethyl chloride chitosan(LMTC) on the growth of bovine vascular smooth muscle cells(BVSMCs) in vitro. Methods The antiproliferation activities of LMTC were evaluated in BVSMCs by means of crystal violet staining and MTT assay. The morphological changes of LMTC in BVSMCs were observed under transmission electron microscope. Cell survival ratio influenced by LMTC was assessed by flow cytometer. [WTHZ]Results After BVSMCs were treated by LMTC for 72 h,the growth of the cells was inhibited in vitro and was dependent on concentration; there were some changes of apoptosis by transmission electron microscope and flow cytometer. Conclusion LMTC can inhibit the proliferation of BVSMCs and induce their apoptosis.

ve To explore the mutagenicity of selenium and lead, the antagonistic effects of selenium on lead. Methods The ICR mice were orally perfused with sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) at different concentrations of 2.5,5.0 and 10 mg/kg and lead acetate [Pb(Ac)2] at different concentrations of 5,10 and 25 mg/kg jointly and con-tinuously for 3 days, and then the numbers of bone marrow polychromative erythrocytes were counted. Results The frequencies of micronucleus of mice only exposed to 10 mg/kg Na2SeO3, 10, 25 mg/kg Pb(Ac)2 respectively showed higher levels compared with those of control (P

Objective To explore the acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors in etiology, clinical characteristics and treatment. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of etiology, clinical manifestations of 45 patients with acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factor. All patients were treated with Vitamin K1 10 -40 mg/d, i. v. , for three months. Some patients with severe blooding were additionally treated with fresh freezing plasma or prothromibin complex. Prothrombin time(PT) and activated partial thromboplastic time(APTT) were measured using Stago automatic blood coagulation analyzer before and after treatment. Ⅱ , Ⅶ, Ⅸ and Ⅹ were measured in some patients. Results Among the 45 cases, no certain cause was found in 19 cases (42.2%), anticoagulant rodenticides poison was a common cause ( 11 cases,42.3% ). The main presentations was hemorrhage, the most common bleeding sites were mucosa (77.8%) (35/45)and hematuria (46.7%) ( 21/45 ). After vitamin K1 treatment, PT and APTT had shortened remarkably from ( 110.35 ± 35.36 ) s,(98.91 ±48.98)s to (13.48 ±2. 17)s,(33.25 ±6.95)s,respectively(t=19.10 and 6.19,Ps <0.01)and the activities of factor Ⅱ、Ⅶ、Ⅸ、Ⅹ had rapidly increased from ( 17.48 ± 10.93 ) %, ( 10.23 ± 5.68 )%, ( 11.98 ±4.69)%,(12.93±7.48)% to (70. 12 ±21.31)%,(92.76 ±29. 15)%,(88.64 ±40. 21)%,(63.97 ±20.11)%(t=12.13,14.43,13.27and9. 74,respectively,Ps<0. 01).Conclusions The histories of patients with acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors are usually hiding, therefore it is easily misdiagnosed. It is worth of detecting PT and APTT in diagnosis and monitoring. Using vitamin K1 10 -40 mg/d is effective and safety.

Objective To investigate serum cardiac troponin T(cTnT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and assess the prognostic values of cTnT and CRP of mortality and cardiovascular events in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods One hundred and six MHD patients were enrolled in this study. Serum cTnT, CRP, creatinine, albumin were measured in pre-hemodialysis at the beginning of the study. The mortality and cardiovascular events were recorded during the period of follow up. Results At the initiation of the study,28 patients (26.42%) were recorded with positive cTnT level, 32(30.19%) with positive CRP and 16 (15.09%) with positive cTnT and CRP. Logistic regression analysis showed a significant correlation between serum cTnT and serum CRP and Scr. Patients with positive cTnT and CRP levels had higher mortality and more cardiovascular events than those with negative levels. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant difference between patients with normal and abnormal cTnT and CRP levels. Conclusions Some MHD patients have elevated serum cTnT level. Serum cTnT level is correlated with serum CRP and creatinine level. Patients with positive cTnT and CRP levels have higher mortality and more cardiovascular events than those with negative levels.

Objective To explore the influence of singing therapy on anxiety and depression of patients with stable COPD.Methods Toally 56 COPD patients were divided into intervention group and control group according to random digit table.The control group was provided health education and mental nursing.On the base of treatment for the control group,the intervention group received singing therapy for 24 weeks.The anxiety and depression scale was to measure the anxiety and depression before and 24 weeks after intervention.Results There were no differences in HAD score and HAD-A score and HAD-D score between the groups before intervention (P>0.05),but after intervention,the differences were significant in terms of the HAD score and HAD-A score and HAD-D score (P<0.01).The scores of intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group.For the scores,there was no difference in the control group between pre-and post-intervention (P>0.05),but the scores after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention in the intervention group (P<0.001).Conclusion Singing therapy can effectively alleviate anxiety and depression of COPD patients at the stable state.
