AlM:To investigate the visual function in myopia and hyperopia amblyopia whose corrected visual acuity have recovered to normal.METHODS: The visual function of children ( 50 cases ) with amblyopia eyes by binocular vision correction after treatment above 0. 9 was checked. The simultaneous perception, fusion range and distance stereopsis were measured. According to the refractive condition of the children who were divided into group A ( myopia, 20 cases ) and group B ( hyperopia, 30 cases ) . The statistically difference of simultaneous perception, fusion function and stereopsis in two groups was analyzed. RESULTS: Fifteen ( 75%) and twenty - six ( 87%) children got the simultaneous perception in group A and group B respectively, and the differences between two groups were not significant (χ2=0. 454,P>0. 05). Group A had six children ( 30%) and group B had only seven children (23%) with the normal aggregative fusion range, two groups did not show any difference (χ2 =0. 565, P>0. 05). Respectively sixteen (80%),and twenty children ( 67%) had the normal divided fusion range in group A and group B, the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 740, P>0. 05). Fifteen (50%) and seven ( 35%) patients acquired the far stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, the recovery rate also did not show any significant difference. Normal distance stereopsis of 50 cases had 22 cases ( 44%) , and normal near stereopsis of 50 cases had 13cases ( 26%) Seven (23%) and 6 (30%) children got the normal near stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, and the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 195, P>0. 05;χ2=0. 295, P>0. 05).CONCLUSlON:After amblyopia treatment, although the children got the normal visual acuity, the binocular vision still can not completely normal in the short term. Myopia and hyperopia factor will not produce significant effect on binocular vision development.

Aim To investigate the effects of cell pro-liferation and activation in HSC-T6 cells by inhibiting the expression of EZH2 , and its partial relevant mech-anism. Methods By introducing the inhibitor DZNep in activated HSC-T6 cells stimulated by TGF-β1 , the protein expression levels of EZH2, p-ERK, p-AKT andα-SMA were detected by Western blot. The siRNA targeting EZH2 was designed and synthesized according to its nucleotide sequence, and their corresponding ex-pression vectors were constructed and transfected into HSC-T6 cells with LipofectamineTM 2000. The prolifer-ation of HSC-T6 cells was determined by MTT. And the protein expression levels of EZH2, p-ERK, p-AKT and α-SMA were measured by Western blot. Results By introducing the inhibitor DZNep in activated HSC-T6 cells stimulated by TGF-β1 , it effectively de-creased the protein levels of EZH2 and also the protein levels of p-ERK, p-AKT and α-SMA. By introducing EZH2-siRNA in activated HSC-T6 cells, it effectively inhibited the cell proliferation, and also the protein levels of EZH2, p-ERK, p-AKT andα-SMA. Conclu-sion Silencing EZH2 expression inhibits HSC-T6 cell proliferation and activation, and EZH2 may be a poten-tial therapeutic target gene for hepatic fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of noninvasive ventilator therapy on serum C-reactive protein (CRP), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and its clinical significance. Methods One hundred cases of moder-ate and severe OSAHS patients were selected by the method of parallel opening. All of the patients were given health education requirement , quitting smoking and wine , low fat diet and exercise to lose weight and other con-ventional treatment. The patients were randomly divided into the treatment group of 42 cases with noninvasive ventilator treatment , 44 cases treated with conventional treatment , to observe the changes of serum CRP , ET-1 and TNF-α levels and PSG parameters after 12 weeks in two groups. Results Apnea hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), the lowest oxygen saturation (LSpO2), and the average oxygen saturation MSpO2 in OSAHS patients were significantly improved after treatment (P < 0.01), but the degree of improvement in the two groups after treatment was significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.01). Plasma CRP, ET-1 and TNF-α levels in the two groups after treatment were lower than before treatment (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), but the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P < 0 . 05 or P < 0 . 01 ) . Conclusion Noninvasive ventilator therapy in improving the OSAHS monitoring data of patients with PSG can effectively reduce the serum CRP, TNF-α, ET-1 level, reduce the body′s inflammatory reaction.
