Objective:To isolate P-cadherin positive and negative oral gingival epithelial cells , and to compare the biological characteristics with junctional epithelial cells .Methods:Human oral gingival epi-thelial cells and junctional epithelial cells were cultured .P-cadherin positive and negative cells were iso-lated from oral gingival epithelial cells .The cellular adhesion , proliferation and migration were measured and compared .Results:The P-cadherin positive cells accounted for 20%of oral gingival epithelial cells . Compared with juctional epithelial cells , P-cadherin positive oral gingival epithelial cells showed similar properties of adhesion and migration , and stronger proliferation ability (0.72 ±0.06 vs.0.60 ±0.05, P<0.05).P-cadherin negative oral gingival epithelial cells showed weaker ability of adhesion (48%± 6%vs.87%±11%, P<0.05), proliferation (0.36 ±0.04 vs.0.60 ±0.05, P<0.05) and migration (10.3 ±2.7 vs.23.4 ±4.8, P<0.05).Conclusion: P-cadherin positive oral gingival epithelial cells showed some similar but different biological characteristics , compared with juctional epithelial cells , which suggested that during the process of transforming oral gingival epithelial cells into juctional epithelial cells, complex gene and protein changes were involved instead of simply cellular migration .

Abstract?Since the introduction of 25-gauge/23-gauge ( 25G/23G ) sutureless micro -incision vitrectomy surgery ( MIVS ) at the beginning of the 21 century, we have stepped into an era of micro-incision vitreoretinal surgery more than10a. The current 25/23G MIVS provide numerous advantages over the conventional 20G vitrectomy surgery including simplified surgical procedure, shortened operating time, decreased complications as well as smaller sclerotomy wound.As a result, vitreoretinal surgeons have been shifting gradually from 20-gauge to 25/23-gauge vitrectomy in the past decade. As the 25/23G MIVS adapted worldwide, however, its drawbacks were also increasingly reported. Most criticism regarding to current 25/23G MIVS are focusing on would sealing related complications.Based on stablished notion regarding vitrectomy -“the smaller the better”, researchers and doctors were keeping on exploring the next generation of vitrectomy system. Thanks to the innovation and development in new generation vitrectomy machines, high lumen output light source, more delicate manufacturing technology and clear wild angle fundus view system, Dr.Oshima from Japan launched the first 27-gauge vitrectomy surgery system.It provided us novel surgical experience with smaller sclerotomy wound and faster cut rate. Further development and refinement of vitrectomy with 27-gauge or more are still on its way and will continue in the future. Undoubtedly, MIVS would be heated debated regarding its pro/con, complications, indications and future development.Combined with our own experiences, here we briefly reviewed the 27-gauge vitrectomy surgery.

Objective To study the clinical characteristicsand perioperative managementof complicated placenta increta, effectively reduce the maternal adverse perinatal outcomes. Methods Retrospective analysis 25 cases of complicated placenta increta between January 2013 and December 2015 in the Third Affiliated Hospital Of Guangzhou Medical University. Grouped into preoperative line 9 cases of ureteral catheter group and without catheter group 16 cases; Conventional hysterectomy group of 17 cases and the posterior hysterectomy group of 8 cases , compare the operation time , postpartum hemorrhage , blood transfusion amount , bladder injury or ureteral injury rate , rate of transferred to the ICU and hospital stay. Results 76% appear repeatedly painless vaginal bleeding during pregnancy , 56% appear bleeding before delivery. Prenatal diagnosis of 17 cases (68%). The preoperative line cystoscopy + bilateral retrograde ureteral catheter or after the posterior hysterectomy , shorter operation time , less postpartum hemorrhage , reduce blood transfusion volume , no urinary tract injury rate, transferred to the ICU rate is low, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions We should attach importance to repeated painless vaginal bleeding , improve prenatal diagnostic rate of complicated placenta increta. The perioperative managementis more comprehensive , effective and standard participation , preoperative ureteral catheter and the posterior hysterectomy can effectively reduce the maternal adverse perinatal outcomes.

OBJECTIVETo observe the therapeutic effect and relevant mechanism of shuxuening Injection (SI) in treating patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC).
METHODSTotally 91 patients with active UC were randomly assigned to 2 groups, 44 in the control group and 47 in the treatment group. Patients in the control group received routine treatment, while patients in the treatment group additionally received intravenous injection of SI (15 mL), twice daily for 14 days in total. Colonoscopy was performed before and after treatment. The therapeutic effect was assessed by Mayo scoring system and the grading of activities evaluated by Baron endoscope. Serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by ELISA. The activity of SOD was detected by xanthine oxidase method. The content of MDA was detected by thiobarbituricacid (TBA). Besides, 20 healthy subjects were recruited as the healthy control group.
RESULTSTotally 82 patients completed the study (40 in the control group and 42 in the treatment group). There was no statistical difference in serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, SOD, MDA, the Mayo score and endoscope grading between the two groups before treatment (P >0. 05). Compared with the healthy control group, serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MDA significantly increased (P <0.01), and the serum SOD level decreased (P < 0. 05) in the treatment grup and the control group before treatment. Compared with before treatment in the same group, serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MDA, the Mayo score and endoscope grading all decreased in the treatment group and the control group after treatment (P <0. 01, P <0. 05). Compared with the control group after treatment, serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MDA, the Mayo score and endoscope grading all decreased (P <0.01, P <0.05), the serum SOD level increased (P <0.05) in the treatment group after treatment. The serum SOD level was obviously negative correlated with serum levels of IL-6, TNF-a, Mayo score, and endoscope score (r = -0. 621, -0.638, -0. 509, -0.787, P <0.01). The serum MDA level was obviously positive correlated with serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, Mayo score, and endoscope score (r =0.711, 0. 882, 0. 525, 0. 639, P <0.01).
CONCLUSIONSI could improve inflammatory injury and clinical symptoms of patients with active UC, and its mechanism might be associated with antioxidant and scavenging oxygen free radicals.

AlM:To investigate the prevalence of pterygium of the household population aged 40 and above in Hengli Town of Dongguan.
METHODS: Using the method of cluster random sampling, select 3 628 people aged 40 and above in four villages and one community for visual examination, intraocular pressure check, slit lamp examination and questionnaire.
RESULTS: The actual number of subjects was 3 393 people, and examination rate was 93. 52%. We detected 843 patients with pterygium. The prevalence of pterygium was 24. 85%.
CONCLUSlON:There is high prevalence of pterygium in Dongguan area. The prevalence of pterygium is related with age and working environment, but has no relation with gender.

Objective To investigate the pregnancy outcomes of couples with either maternal or paternal balanced translocations.Methods One hundred and ninety-four couples were divided into three groups based on the kind of translocations:135 with reciprocal translocation,52 with nonhomologous Robertsonian translocations,and 7 with homologous Robertsonian translocations.Past reproductive histories were surveyed.For those who wanted to have their own babies by natural conceptions after knowing their karyotypes as well as the risks of abnormal offsprings,subsequent pregnancy outcomes were recorded.Total pregnancy outcomes were compared between three groups.Results(1)503 previous and subsequent pregnancies were recorded in detail.The pregnancy outcomes are as follows:spontaneous abortions 81.7% (411/503);induced terminations because of fetal abnormalities 3.2%(16/503);birth defects 7.2% (36/503);normal/balanced offsprings 8.0%(40/503).In reciprocal translocations,nonhomologous Robertsonian translocations and homologous Robertsonian translocations,the birth defects rates were 5.7% (20/350),10.9%(14/128)and 8.0%(2/25),respectively(P
