· AlM:To compare the therapeutic effects of different surgical methods in treating pterygium patients and to observe tear film stability.
· METHODS: A total of 120 pterygium patients ( 120 eyes) were divided into three groups, each 40 cases (40 eyes).Data including SchirmerⅠtest (SⅠt), tear break-up time ( BUT) , corneal fluorescein staining ( CFS) were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively to evaluate the clinical efficacy of surgery and the effects of tear function changes.
·RESULTS:There were no significant differences in BUT in group A before the operation and one month after operation.Groups B and C showed significant difference before and after operation, but differences were not statistically significant ( all P<0.05 ); One month after operation, there was significant difference in CFS among group A, B and C (P<0.05), but the difference was not satistically significant between groups B and C; After 3mo, BUT in group A was not significant difference compared with the preoperative; but there was significant difference in groups B and C (P<0.05).When
compared it between groups B and C, there showed no significant difference; Group A showed no significant difference in SⅠt compared with preoperative, SⅠt of groups B and C were significant differences compared with preoperative (P<0.05), but no significant difference between the two groups;After 3mo, CFS of preoperative group A and group B and group C had no significant difference. After 10mo follow - up, there was axsignificant difference ( P<0.05 ) in recurrence rate in group A comparing with groups B and C, there were differences between groups B and C, but no statistically significant.Surgery is more likely to relapse in summer than in winter.
·CONCLUSlON: Pterygium excision combined with self-corneal limbal stem cell transplantation and Tenon capsule closed is an ideal surgical to reduce the recurrence and improve tear film function to some extent.

RhoA, a small GTPase, is involved in a wide array of cellular functions in the central nervous system, such as cell motility, cytoskeleton rearrangement, transcriptional regulation, phagocytosis and cell growth. It is not known how spinal cord injury (SCI) affects the expression of RhoA in different nerve cells. In the present study, we investigated the changes of RhoA expression in remote areas of the injury at the 3rd, 7th and 30th day after SCI, which was established by T10 contusion method. Moreover, we examine its expression profile in neurons, astrocytes and microglia. RhoA was found to be weakly expressed in these nerve cells in normal spinal cord. Western blotting showed that, after SCI, the total RhoA expression was up-regulated, and the RhoA expression was increased and peaked at the 7th day. Double immunostaining revealed specific and temporal expression patterns of RhoA in different nerve cells. The expression of RhoA in neurons started to increase at day 3, peaked at day 7 and then decreased slightly at day 30. Expression of RhoA in astrocytes increased moderately after SCI and peaked at day 7. There was no obvious change in RhoA expression in microglia after SCI in remote areas. This study demonstrated that, after SCI, RhoA expression exhibited different patterns with different nerve cells of spinal cord. RhoA expression patterns also changed with time after SCI, and among different nerve cells in the injured spinal cord. These findings can help us better understand the roles of RhoA in SCI.

Objective To evaluate the possibility and safety of balloon kyphoplasty for the aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures. Methods From October 2007 to December 2012, 78 patients with aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures were treated by balloon kyphoplasty. The inflatable balloon was inserted through pedicle of vertebal arch to make fracture reduction, then the centrum was stuffed with bone cement. The whole procedure was pinpointed and detected by C-arm x-ray machine. Results All operations were completed successfully. The lumbar and back pain of the patients relieved obviously. The quality of patients' life was significantly improved. Imaging examinations revealed that the vertebrae altitude was recovered and the kyphosis was corrected obviously. Conclusion Balloon kyphoplasty is effective to treat the aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures. But the operation had certain risk, we must do a good job in preoperative preparation, strictly handle surgical indication and accurately operate.

RSV and its subgroups were detected by nested PCR.The five positive amplicons selected randomly from all positive samples were sequenced and compared with other RSV in GenBank by BLAST and DNAStar.Results of all 392specimens.68 RSV G gene segments were tested.Among them,RSV lineage A occupied 93.3%,while B occuDied 6.7%.The identities between them were 63.1%-99.4%.Phylogenetic analysis defined that they belonged to two different clusters.Conclusion RSV was one of the important viruses leading to children's respiratory tract infections in the People's General Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region during winter and spring from 2006 to 2007.RSV subtype A was the prevalent genotype in the hospital dunng this epidemics.

Objective To analyze the relationship between different rectal volume,bladder volume and dose of organs at risk (OARs) in intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer.Methods A total of 47 patients with cervical cancer were selected.All of them were treated with high dose rate (HDR) intracavitary brachytherapy with a 600 cGy dose for the dosage point.The effects of different volume of rectum bladder and small intestine for corresponding exposure dose under the standard planning were evaluated using a dose-volume histogram (DVH).According to bladder volume,patients were divided into three groups,＜ 80 cm3 group,80-120 cm3 group and ＞ 120 cm3 group.And according to rectum volume,patients were divided into ＞ 60 cm3 group and ≤ 60 cm3 group.The relationship between the volume and dosage were analyzed.The ANOVA test and t test were used for analyzing D1 cm3,D2 cm3,D30％ and D50％.Results Compared with the group with ＜ 80 cm3 bladder volume,D30％,D50％ value of bladder in groups with 80-120 cm3 and ＞ 120 cm3 of bladder volume increased (F =5.074,5.088,P ＜ 0.05).The difference of D1 cm3 and D2 cm3 value of the small intestine between 80-120 cm3 and ＞ 120 cm3 bladder volume groups were not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).D1 cm3 of rectum in groups with ≤ 60 cm3 rectum volume was decreased than that of ＞ 60 cm3 group (t =-2.045,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Keeping an appropriatly full bladder and reducing rectal volume in cervical cancers treated with intracavitary brachytherapy can make the exposure dose of bladder,rectum and small intestine relatively small,and reduce the adverse reactions of radiotherapy.

Objective To explore the characteristics of emotion and mental health of soldier under field training stress. Methods Self-rating anxiety scale,self-rating depression scale and stressful psycho-behavior questionnaire were used to evaluate soldiers’ state under field training. Results At 3 months after training,there were 21.7% soldiers with SAS score higher than 50,and 6.4% soldiers higher than 60,but the scores were 11.6% and 4.2% respectively 2 months before field training; There were 45.7% soldiers with SDS score higher than 50 and 19.2% higher than 60 at 3 months after training,and only 25.3% and 11.6% at 2 months before training. Score of stressful psycho-behavior was (24.1?6.1) in 3 months after training,significantly higher than that of 2 months before training (18.3?4.7,P

Objective To analyze the mutations of GATA4 gene in Han Chinese patients with atrioventricular septal defect(AVSD)and investigate the association between GATA4 gene and pathogenesis. Methods Ninety-four Han Chinese patients with AVSD were recruited,including 23 patients with Down syndrome and 71 patients without. One hundred healthy age-matched Han children were used as the control. Blood samples were drawn. Encoding region and flanking introns of GATA4 gene were amplified using polymerase chain reaction. The mutations were detected by DNA fragment sequences analysis. Results Three novel missense mutations(c.106C ＞ G,p.P36A;c.259C ＞ T, p.P87S;c.504C ＞ A,p.D168E)of the GATA4 gene were identified in three patients with complete AVSD without Down syndrome,and a fourth novel missense mutation(c.1079A ＞ G,p.E360G)was noted in a patient with complete AVSD and Down syndrome. A polymorphism of the GATA4 gene(c.G99T,p.A33A)from six patients was detected. Conclusions The GATA4 gene might be involved in the etiology of AVSD by functional changes resulting from gene mutation. The low incidence of GATA4 gene mutations in patients with AVSD with or without Down syndrome might suggest that AVSD is a polygenetic disorder.

Objective To observe the effects of combined generalepidural anesthesia on perioperative myocardial enzymogram and troponin T of the myocardium(cTnT)in old patients undergoing thoracic surgery.Methods Thirty-eight ASAⅠ-Ⅱ patients aged 60～80 years old were randomly divided into two groups.General anesthesia group(group G): anesthesia was induced with fentanly,propofol and vecuronium and maintained with isoflurane,propofol and vecuronium.Combined anesthesia group(group C):general anesthesia was performed as in group G and continuous epidural block with(1.6%) lidocaine was added during operation.Peripheral blood CK,CK-MB,AST,LDH and cTnT were measured before anesthesia,at the end of operation and at 6,24,48 hours after operation.Results Two groups could provide same postoperative analgesia.There was no change for HR,RR and MAP in two groups.Serum CK,AST,LDH and cTnT concentration in group G after operation were significantly higher than those before anesthesia(P

Through analyzing the current situation and coverage controversy of Chinese clinical trial insurance,this paper stated that the attending insurance rate in domestic clinical trials was entirely low.The sponsors,clinical trial institutions,investigators and insurance companies paid attention of different levels to clinical trial insurance.Therefore,the risk awareness of drug/medical device clinical trials should be enhanced.It is necessary to give impetus to clinical trial insurance system,during which all parties need to make a joint effort including government departments,ethics committees,sponsors,clinical trial institutions,investigators and insurance companies.

ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy and safety of intermittent patient-initiated single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis and continuous antibiotic prophylaxis for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) in postmenopausal women. MethodsA randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection. Single dose of antibiotic was given every night in continuous antibiotic prophylaxis group and every time after exposure to conditions predisposed to UTI in intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis group. The duration of prevention was 12 months in both groups. ResultsThe effective rates of intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis and continuous antibiotic prophylaxis were 71.0% and 81.8% respectively (P＞0.05). The incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reaction in intermittent antibiotic prophylaxis group was significantly lower than that in continuous antibiotic prophylaxis group (7.7% vs 28.6%,P＜0.05). ConclusionsCompared with continuous antibiotic prophylaxis, intermittent patient-initiated single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis is a better prophylaxis with less gastrointestinal adverse reactions for the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infection in postmenopausal women.
