Objective To explore the levels of neuron-specific enolase(NSE)in serum and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) of children with convulsion,and its significance to the diagnosis of neuronal damage was evaluated.Methods Sixty patients were enrolled,and they were divided into 4 groups:non-nervous system disease group,peripheral nervous system disease group,brief convulsion group,and prolonged/status convulsion group.The levels of NSE in serum and CSF were detected in 4 groups,and the electroencephalography(EEG) and computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging(CT/MRI) examinations were taken to observe the changes in patients with convulsion.Results The levels of NSE in serum and CSF of children with convulsion increased significant,especially in the prolonged/status convulsion group.Changes of NSE levels in serum and CSF were similar.Meanwhile,significant changes were found in EEG between the brief convulsion group and prolonged/status convulsion group;but no significantly changes were found in CT/MRI between the 2 groups.Conclusions NSE detection might be valuable to the diagnosis for neuronal damage in early time.The changes of NSE levels are similar to those in EEG,which are more sensitive than the changes in CT/MRI.It is very important to combine the NSE detection in serum or CSF and EEG examination in early time after convulsion for judgement to the neuronal damage and prognosis.

AIM:To examine the efficacy and safety of cryotherapy in the management of Fusarium corneal ulcer.
METHODS: Retrospective contract analysis of the clinical data of 41 patients ( 41 eyes ) who infected with Fusarium corneal ulcer. All of them underwent focal lesion keratectomy combined with amniotic membrane transplantation between January 2010 and May 2013. The cryotherapy treatment group of 22 cases (22 eyes), non-cryotherapy group of 19 cases ( 19 eyes ) . All the cases were followed up for 3 ~12mo. We analyzed the healing of corneal ulcer, corneal neovascularization, postoperative visual acuity, complications and ulcer recurrences.
RESULTS: There were no significant difference for the two groups at the cure rate and the recovery rate, the corneal neovascularization and postoperative visual acuity (P>0. 05). The total effective rate and corneal healing time in cryotherapy group was significantly higher than that in non - cryotherapy group ( P < 0. 05 ). The postoperative visual acuity of two group were higher than that of preoperatively ( P < 0. 05 ). There was no complication occurred in cryotherapy group while there was 1 patient of secondary glaucoma in non-cryotherapy group.
CONCLUSION: Cryotherapy is an effective and safe method for the treatment of Fusarium corneal ulcer.

Objective To investigate the features of remodeling of intramyocardial small arteries(IMSAs) in rats with idiopathic hypertension(SHR).Methods12-week-old male SHR rats(experimental group,n=10) with the age and sex matched Wistar Kyoto rats(WKY,control group,n=10) were included in present study.Experiments were continued for 18 weeks.The blood pressure of all the animals was measured at the beginning and at the end of experiment,and then all the animals were sacrificed.The left ventricle tissue sections were stained with HE,Sirius-red,elasticity fibrin and collagen fibrin double staining(P/VB) for morphological evaluation of IMSAs.The wall area(WA),luminal area(LA) and percent wall area(%WA) of IMSAs were assessed with the compute-assisted image analysis system.The vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) were recognized by ?-SMA immunohistochemical staining,the proliferation and apoptosis of IMSAs were demonstrated by proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) immunohistochemical staining and TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling(TUNEL) technique,respectively.The apoptosis index(AI) and proliferation index(PI) were calculated respectively.Results Systolic blood pressure(SBP) in SHR group at week 12 and week 30 were significantly higher than those in WKY group(172.00?9.78mmHg vs 123.40?5.10mmHg,200.50?14.15mmHg vs 116.30?9.38mmHg,respectively,P

Background The reduced glutathione(GSH) is a water soluble antioxidant in retina and it is an important component of thiol.Diabetes induce the oxidative response of retina.It is very important to detect the content of thiol in retina for the evaluation of its antioxidant role.Objective This study was to investigate the effect of carnosine,aspirin and a combination of carnosine and aspirin eye drops on the change of the thiol contents in the retina of the diabetic rats. Methods Diabetic models were induced in 76 clean male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin(65 mg/kg).The 0.02 mi sodium citrate buffer was injected in 12 control rats.1%camosine eye drops or 0.05%aspirin eye drops were topically administered respectively in carnosine group (19 rats)or aspirin group(19 rats)two times per day for a period of 8 weeks,and the combination of 1%carnosine eye drops and 0.05%aspirin eye drops was used in the combination group at the same way(19 rats).At the end of 8 weeks.The animMs were sacrificed and the eyeballs were enucleated for the detect of thiols in the retina by colorimetry.Results The body weight of SD rats was significantly reduced and the blood glucose level was evidently arose in model group,camosine group and aspirin group in comparison with control group(P＜0.05),but those of combination group compared with control group was insignificantly changed(P＞0.05).The level of thiol in retina was(1 90.35+46.62)ms/gprot in model group,showing a considerable decrease in comparison with control (202.77+53.49 ms/gprot)(P＜0.05).However,the thiol level rose to(378.40±165.06)mg/gprot in camosine group and(351.88±211.62)mg/gprot in aspirin group,showing a statistically significant difference in comparison with control group(P＜0.05).The content of thiol in combination group compared with control group Was insignificant changed(166.972±50.287 mg/gprot us 202.77±53.49 mg/gprot).Curiously the levels in the combination group were not different from the normal control group. Conclusion The carnosine and aspirin eye drops may protect the retina against the oxidative damage caused by diabetes.

Objective:The study aims to screen chemosensitivity-associated proteins in colorectal carcinoma tissues by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry,then identify some differentially-expressed proteins. Methods:The patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma were confirmed by clinical diagnosis. Fresh carcinoma specimens were collected by biopsy and preserved in liquid N2. The tissues were classified into two groups: high sensitivity group (HS) and low sensitivity group (LS) based on drug sensitivity test. The total proteins were extracted and separated by 2-DE. The images were composed, compared, and differentially analyzed to identify the proteins with differential expression in HS and LS groups. Then the differentially-expressed protein spots were incised from the gels and digested by trypsin. The peptide mass fingerprintings (PMF) was acquired after matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and the proteins were identified by data searching in the Mascot database. Two proteins with differential expression were detected by Western blotting.Results:The 2-DE spectrum of HS and LS groups were established. Most protein spots were distributed in the area with pH 4-8 and relative molecular weight of (20-100)×10~3. The average number of the protein spots was 842±23 in HS group and 793±19 in LS group,respectively. The mean matching rate was 90.7%. The number of differentially-expressed dots between HS and LS group was 79.00±13.56. Thirty protein dots were selected for mass spectrum and bioinformatic analysis, and 9 proteins were identified. Conclusion:Colorectal carcinoma with different chemosensitivity had differential protein expression profiles. The differentially expressed proteins may be associated with chemosensitivity and could be used for prediction of chemosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma.
