?Color vision has been an important part of the human visual function.It is determined by the phytochrome of cone.In many clinical cases of ocular fundus diseases, patients had color vision loss, which shows that color visions tests is necessary and meaningful.At present, doctors have not paid attention to it and adopt the tests rarely. The article summarizes the tests of color in common use and applications on the diagnosis and treatment for common ocular fundus diseases to be a theory basis.

Objective To investigate the effects of fracture displacement and operation method on perioperative blood loss of femoral neck fractures. Methods From December 2013 to October 2014, 130 cases (58 males and 72 females, aged from 18 to 91 years, with an average age of 71.1±12.9 years) with femoral neck fractures were retrospectively analyzed for the periopera?tive blood loss. The degree of displacement was described according to Garden's grades. According to the degree of fracture dis?placement, the patients were divided into two groups:GardenⅠ-Ⅱgroup and Garden Ⅲ-Ⅳgroup, and patients' preoperative hidden blood loss was compared between two groups. According to the degree of fracture displacement and the method of opera?tion, the patients were divided into four groups:Group 1 indicates the group in which patients received cannulated screws fixation for Garden gradeⅠ-Ⅱ;Group 2 in which patients received hemiarthroplasty for Garden gradeⅠ-Ⅱ;Group 3 in which patients received cannulated screws fixation for Garden grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ; Group 4 in which patients received hemiarthroplasty for Garden grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ; and variation in the following four parameters was analyzed: the dominant blood loss, postoperative hidden blood loss, total hidden blood loss, total blood loss in the four different groups. Results For the Garden gradeⅢ-Ⅳfemoral neck frac?ture group, the preoperative hidden blood loss was significantly higher than that of the Garden gradeⅠ-Ⅱfemoral neck fracture group (t=2.267, P=0.001). The dominant blood loss volume, postoperative hidden blood loss volume, total hidden blood loss vol?ume and total blood loss volume of hemiarthroplasty groups (402.1 ± 36.8 ml, 641.3 ± 53.2 ml, 880.7 ± 61.7 ml, 1 246.1 ± 76.7 ml) were higher than those of the cannulated screws fixation group (45.8±34.9 ml, 301.9±50.6 ml, 436.6±58.6 ml, 478.5±72.9 ml). Conclusion The perioperative hidden blood loss is mainly related with the degree of fracture displacement, the greater the de?gree of fracture displacement, the more the preoperative hidden blood loss. While the dominant blood loss volume, postoperative hidden blood loss volume, total hidden blood loss volume and total blood loss volume are mainly related to the method of operation, the blood loss in which patients received hemiarthroplasty should be increased significantly.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the influence of the DNA integrity of optimized sperm on the embryonic development and clinical outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET).

METHODSThis study included 605 cycles of conventional IVF-ET for pure oviductal infertility performed from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2014. On the day of retrieval, we examined the DNA integrity of the sperm using the sperm chromatin dispersion method. According to the ROC curve and Youden index, we grouped the cycles based on the sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) threshold value for predicting implantation failure, early miscarriage, and fertilization failure, followed by analysis of the correlation between DFI and the outcomes of IVF-ET.

RESULTSAccording to the DFI threshold values obtained, the 605 cycles fell into four groups (DFI value < 5%, 5-10%, 10-15%, and ≥ 15%). Statistically significant differences were observed among the four groups in the rates of fertilization, cleavage, high-quality embryo, implantation, clinical pregnancy, early miscarriage, and live birth (P < 0.05), but not in the rates of multiple pregnancy, premature birth, and low birth weight (P > 0.05). DFI was found to be correlated negatively with the rates of fertilization (r = -0.32, P < 0.01), cleavage (r = -0.19, P < 0.01), high-quality embryo (r = -0.40, P < 0.01), clinical pregnancy (r = -0.20, P < 0.01), and live birth (r = -0.09 P = 0.04), positively with the rate of early miscarriage (r = 0.23, P < 0.01), but not with the rates of multiple pregnancy (r = -0.01, P = 0.83), premature birth (r = 0.04, P = 0.54), and low birth weight (r = 0.03, P = 0.62).

CONCLUSIONThe DNA integrity of optimized sperm influences fertilization, embryonic development, early miscarriage, and live birth of IVF-ET, but its correlation with premature birth and low birth weight has to be further studied.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the values of the sperm deformity index (SDI), acrosome abnormity rate (AAR), and DNA fragmentation index (DFI) of optimized sperm in the prediction of fertilization failure (fertilization rate < 25%) in conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF).

METHODSWe selected 695 cycles of conventional IVF for pure oviductal infertility in this study, including 603 cycles of normal fertilization and 92 cycles of fertilization failure. On the day of oocyte retrieval, we examined sperm morphology, acrosome morphology, and DNA fragmentation using the Diff-Quik, PSA-FITC and SCD methods. We established the joint predictor (JP) by logistic equation and analyzed the values of different parameters in predicting fertilization failure with the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

RESULTSThe fertilization rate was negatively correlated with SDI (r = - 0.07; P = 0.03), AAR (r = -0.49; P < 0.01), and DFI (r = -0. 21; P < 0.01). The SDI, AAR, and DFI in the normal fertilization group were 1.24 ± 0.20, (7.75 ± 2.28)%, and (7.87 ± 3.15)%, and those in the fertilization failure group were 1.42 ± 0.15, (12.02 ± 3.06)%, and (13.32 ± 4.13)%, respectively, all with statistically significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.05). SDI, AAR, and DFI were all risk factors of fertilization failure ( OR = 2.68, 14.11, and 3.85; P = 0.01, < 0.01, and < 0.01). The areas under the ROC curves for SDI, AAR, DFI, and JP were 0.651 ± 0.033, 0.895 ± 0.019, 0.789 ± 0.022, and 0.915 ± 0.017, respectively. According to the Youden index, the optimal cut-off values of SDI, AAR, and DFI obtained for the prediction of fertilization failure were approximately 1.45, 10%, and 12%.

CONCLUSIONThe SDI, AAR and DFI of optimized sperm are closely associated with the fertilization rate, and all have the value for predicting fertilization failure in IVF. The AAR is more valuable than the other single predictors, but JP is more effective than the AAR.
