The clinical characteristics, therapeutic effects and complications of 32 incipient patients with acute Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada ( VKH) syndrome admitted in Wuxi Second Hospital during October 2010 to September 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 15 males and 17 females with a mean age of (41.3 ±14.1) years (22 -71 years), the time from the disease onset to treatment ranged from 3 to 20 days.Among 32 cases, 30 ( 94%) had premonitory symptoms. The multifocal bullous neurosensory detachment, optic disk hyperemia and edema in posterior pole of fundus were found in all cases, and exudative retinal detachment was found in 4 cases (6 eyes).The results of optical coherence tomography ( OCT) showed the macula neurosensory detachment, thick retinal neuroepithelial layer and wavy RPE layer in all patients.Fundus fluorescein angiography ( FFA) showed that scattered hyperfluorescence dots and cystic fluorescein reservoir was observed in early phase and later period respectively.Patients received intravenous methylprednisolone with the onset dose of 80 mg per day for 3-7 days and oral administration followed, which would gradually decrease later;the average treatment duration was (52.9 ±14.6) weeks. The visual acuity of 40 eyes (22 cases) was recovered to more than 0.8, and no blindness occurred after the treatment.During the treatment hair loss, depigmentation of skin and hair were found in 12 cases (38%) , and 2 cases showed short-term elevated intraocular pressure.These symptoms disappeared after drug therapy ceased.And no recurrence was found during the follow-up of 6 months.However, sunset glow fundus was found in 13 patients (26 eyes).The study shows that the diagnosis of VKH syndrome is based on the typical signs of the fundus presented on OCT and FFA.Early and systemic administration of glucocorticoids is important treatment for patients with VHK syndrome, which could decrease systemic and local complications effectively.

Although globally recommended standardized stratification treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) effectively improves its therapeutic effects and prognosis,due to unknown personalized differences of tumorous biology,most of the patients eventually develop to therapy failure,relapse,and even death.Additionally,a number of patients are naturally resistant to current used combined chemotherapy and with extremely poor prognosis,This review presents definitions of refractory and relapsed AML,then describes their pathogenetic mechanism and lastly summarizes three aspects of therapeutic principle,clinical drugs and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).To review advances in relapsed and refractory AML diagnosis and treatment will be helpful to master disease characteristics and to guide clinical treatment.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of uterine incision diverticulum type repair after cesarean section treated by laparoscopy and transvaginal combined with repair in.order to provide the reference for the clinical operation scheme selection.Methods Fifty-two patients who underwent uterine incision diverticulum type repair after cesarean section in the Second People's Hospital of Jingzhou were randomly divided into observation group and control group with 26 cases in each.Patients in the observation group were treated with laparoscopy combined with repair treatment,and patients in the control group were treated with transvaginal repair treatment.The operation periods,cut bleeding volume,postoperative anal exhaust time for the first time,postoperative highest temperature and length of hospital stay were recorded to evaluate the repair and uterine diverticula recovery at 3 months after operation.Results The operation periods in the observation group was (119.91 ± 35.73) min,longer than that in the control group ((62.32 ± 31.83) min ; t =3.514,P ＜0.05).There were on significant differences between two groups in terms of the amount of bleeding,anal discharge first time,the highest postoperative temperature and contrast after a few days in hospital (P＞ 0.05).After treatment,the observation group menstrual recovery rate was 84.62％ and 88.46％ in the control group.The differences were not statistically significant (x2 =1.14,1.76,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopy hemiorrhaphy and transvaginal repair are effective treatment for uterine incision diverticulum after caesarean operation.The corresponding treatment plan can be made according to the patient's condition.

Objective To study the expression of LRP16 and E-cadherin(E-cad),ER,PR in eutopic endometrium and ectopic endometrium of endometriosis(EM),as well as to study the relation one another and the possible clinical significance.Methods The expression of LRP16 and E-cadherin,ER,PR in endometrium was detected by immunohistochemical two step staining methods in 72 patients with endometriosis which was finally confirmed by laparoscopic operation.Results The expression of LRP16 in epithelioglandular endochylema in eutopic endometrium of EM was significantly higher than that in ectopic endometrium(P

The public ethics consciousness,with medical ethics included,fundamentally depends on the gradual improvement in the self-identity of human as objective itself.However,the improvement of humanistic consciousness is a long and painful process.Former recognition of historical culture,including the humanistic ideal in traditional Chinese ethical thoughts and systemic rational thoughts in modern western society,mainly employs transcendental test of abstract anthroposophy as its cultural premise,superficially enhancing certain individuals and their thoughts,motives,and objectives to historical ontology,but actually resulting in the absence of human individuals in realistic history.The self-conscious improvement of human-oriented public ethics can only be realized by the subjective humanistic consciousness which undergoes the regression from axiology,epistemology,to existence theory,making human realize that they themselves are the utmost purpose of all values and significances.

Objective To investigate the feasability of resorbable porcine-derived, xenogeneic aortas acelullar tissue matrix (ACTM) to be used as scaffold for cervical esophageal defect repair in a dog model. Methods Esophageal segmental defect measuring 5cm in length were created by surgical resection in 6 mature Chinese mongrel health dogs, then the defect were repaired with aorta acelullar tissue matrix (ACTM). The animals were kept alive for periods. The healing process was observed. Results There no death after perioperative period, one dog had anastomotic leakage. one dog was died of esophagus rupture as the result of esophageal dilation. Submucosal tissue regeneration and abundant neovascularization were found at 2 weeks. The squamous epithelium covered the most part of grafts surface in dogs killed after 4 weeks. 12 weeks later the squamous epithelium comprising 8 to 12 layers, both esophageal glands and muscle tissue were found. The graft material itself was mostly absorbed and could not be identified by naked eyes in the dogs killed after 12 weeks. Conclusion ACTM show promise as an ideal treatment option for esophageal repair.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a group of heterogeneous diseases with diverse genetic abnormalities,variable responsiveness to therapy and prognosis.In recent years,a lot of information has become available regarding chromosome and gene mutations that occur in AML and their influence on prognosis.Improvements in the understanding of molecular biology of AML are critical for accurate diagnosis.risk stratification,monitoring of minimal residual disease and provides opportunities to develop targeted therapies and improve the clinical outcome.This article reviewed chromosome abnormalities and characteristic gene mutations,and discussed their clinical signiflcances and presented new drugs in clinical trials presented in the 55th ASH annual meeting.

ObjectiveTo study MRI features and pathologic basis of various periosteal changes in rabbit VX2 bone tumor and to evaluate the role of MRI in the change of periosteum in bone tumor. MethodsBone tumor models were induced by injection of VX2 carcinoma cell suspension into the medullary cavitv of right tibias in 32 rabbits.Thirty-six positive contrast cases and 4 negative contrast cases were established.Serial plain films and MRI examinations were performed at an interval of 5 days foliowing the implantation.Every 4 rabbits were sacrificed immediately after imaging. The findings of periosteal changes were compared between imaging features and pathologic Results . ResultsFrom the 5th to 15th day after implantation of VX2 carcinoma,periosteal edema was demonstrated in 32 tibias. On the 20th day,periosteal thickening Was revealed in 19 tibias. On the 25th day,periosteal new bone with the thickened periosteum attaching to its outer Surface was found in 12 tibias. On the 30th day,periosteal new bone with the thickened Deriosteum were elevated by the tumor in 11 tibias.On the 35th to 40th day,destruction of periosteal bone and periosteum were revealed.ConclusionsThe progress of periosteal changes in rabbit VX2 bone tumor included periosteal edema,periosteal thickening,periosteal new bone,destruction of periosteal new bone and destruction of periosteum. Various periosteal changes could be demonstrated on MRI and MRI is useful in evaluating periosteal changes.
