AIM: To study the clinical effects of using sodium hyaluronate in the glaucoma trabeculectomy. ·METHODS: Totally 46 patients were included in our research and they were divided into two groups. In the study group (23 cases 23 eyes), we used slice with MMC of 0. 4mg/mL in trabeculectomy. Before the conjunctiva flap was sewed, a small amount of sodium hyaluronate was injected into the space under scleral flap and the anterior chamber. In control group ( 23 cases 23 eyes ) , we only used MMC. After trabeculetomy, shallow anterior chambe formation, intraocular pressure, corneal endothelial injury and the formation of filter-bubble were observed in long term. ·RESULTS:IOP of study group at 1d after operation was higher than that of control group ( P<0. 05 ), but not significant different at 3d, 1 and 6mo after operation(P>0. 05). At 3d after operation, visual acuity decreased in 2 eyes (9%) of study group, 8 eyes (35%) in control group with significant different ( P = 0. 035 ). At 6mo after operation, visual acuity decreased in 0 of study group, 5 eyes (22%) in control group with significant different (P=0. 025 ). The differences on the occurrence of shallow anterior chamber at 7d after operation, formation of filter-bubble at 6mo after operation and corneal endothelial count were significant (P<0. 05). There were less postoperative complications in study group than in control group. ·CONCLUSION: Using sodium hyaluronate combined with MMC in trabeculectomy can greatly prevent the formation of shallow anterior chamber, filter-bubble scarring, and corneal endothelium dropout, make it possible to a safer surgery and a better outcome.

Objective To map the complete methylation status of the hMLH1 promoter in sporadic colorectal carcinoma and analyze the relationship between MVPs (methylation variable positions) of hMLH1 promoter and the expression of hMLH1. Methods Methylation status of hMLH1 promoter was measured by bisulfite sequencing. hMLH1 protein expression was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Out of the 30 sporadic colorectal carcinoma specimens, the hypermethylation of CGIs (CpG islands) 1 was in 6 and that of CGIs 2 in 4. The hMLH1 protein was detected in 15 specimens. Chi square test showed the methylation of CGIs 1 was closely related to loss of hMLH1 protein expression (P0.05). Conclusion In CGIs 1, CpG positions from 1 to 28 are the critical region that could influence the expression of hMLH1.

Objective To analyze the frontier and evolution of cognitive neuroscience. Methods CiteSpace Ⅱ was running on Java platform. Results By analyzing the node types,such as the author\institution\country\keyword\cited reference with the tool of Information Visualization, the critical subject for reference and the focuses were quickly defined, and the basic literature and the key literature of cognitive neuroscience were specifically determined and carefully reviewed.Conclusion Keeping track of the evolution trends and significant changes will contribute to development of cognitive neuroscience.

ObjectiveTo develop an experimental model of orthostatic hypotension (OH) after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rabbits and investigate the effect of tilting table exercise and Shengmaiyin on it. MethodsRabbit model of OH after SCI were induced by complete transection of spinal cord at the T5 spinal segment and raised to 60° head up tilt (HUT) on a tilting table. Tilting table exercise and Shengmaiyin were applied to different groups for 28 d from 4 days after operation. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and pulse rate (PR) were observed with non-invasive sphygmobolometer of rabbit 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 d after the operation. Liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection(HPLC-ECD) was used to detect the concentrations of plasma norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine(E) with horizontal position and HUT 60° on the 31st day. ResultsSBP with HUT 60° in rabbits of combined treatment group was significantly higher than that in rabbits of SCI group on the 24th day after operation,and the drop in SBP from horizontal position to HUT60° was significantly lower than that in rabbits of SCI group. SBP with HUT 60° in rabbits of exercise group and combined treatment group was significantly higher than that in rabbits of SCI group on the 31st day after operation. The drop in SBP from horizontal position to HUT 60° was significantly lower in rabbits of Shengmaiyin group, exercise group and combined treatment group than that in rabbits of SCI group on the 31st day after operation. The concentration of E and NE of SCI group, Shengmaiyin group, exercise group and combined treatment group was lower than that of sham group, but there was no significant difference among these groups. ConclusionThe treatment with tilting table exercise and Shengmaiyin can improve OH after SCI partially in rabbits without involving norepinephrine and epinephrine significantly. The period of treatment can be shorten when both therapies used together.

Objective To understand the features of lymphatic vessel,and to summarize the foundation and mechanism of the promotion and inhibition of tumor lymphangiogenesis recorded on the current studies of animal ex- periments and clinical researches.Methods The related literatures of the structural features of lymphatic vessel, lymphatic endothelial molecular markers,the origin of lymphatic tumors,the molecular mechanisms and regulatory factors were reviewed,and the relationship between tumor lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis,the treat- ment targeting at the formation of the anti-tumor lymphatic vessel and its existing problems were also analyzed.Re- suits Hyperplasia of lymphatic vessels occurred during the process of tumor formation and progression.The struc- tural features of the lymphatic vessels in the tumor were conducive to tumor lymphatic metastasis.In recent years, methods of anti-lymphangiogenesis and inhibition of tumor lymphatic metastasis had achieved considerable success in animal experiments.However,there were still a lot of problems need to be solved.Conclusion Tumor lymphangio- genesis has a significantly positive correlation between tumor lymphatic metastasis and patients'prognosis,which may indicate that treatment against the formation of tumor lymphatic vessel maybe effective.
