With the increasing perfection and improvement of microsurgery technique in modern ophthalmology, especially the popularization of micro-incision cataract extraction and the rise of femtosecond-laser-assisted cataract extraction, the cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation is gradually transformed from vision rehabilitation surgery into refractive surgery and people also pursue better postoperative visual experiences. However, the preoperative and postoperative corneal astigmatism is always the main factor affecting the postoperative visual effect. ln recent years, the development of design and materials of the intraocular lens ( lOL) provided necessary basic conditions for clinical application of the Toric lOL. The Toric lOL is primarily characterized by effective correction of cataract patients′postoperative corneal astigmatism, which results in the enhancement of patients′postoperative visual function. ln this paper, the design, classification and clinical application of Toric lOL were analyzed, and current problems and prospect were discussed.

OBJECTIVE:To study the bioequivalence of Alendronate Sodium Tablets in healthy volunteers. METHODS:According to a paired and cross-over design,a bioequivalence test was performed on two different alendronate sodium tablets,10 mg (Group 1) and 70 mg (Group 2). Then each group was subdivided into two groups,i.e. test preparation and reference preparation. The urine concentrations of alendronate at different time point within 48 h were determined by HPLC and the urine excretion rate -time curve was drawn,and the DAS software was used to compute the pharmacokinetic parameters and the relative bioavailability of the tested formulation. RESULTS:The 90% confidence intervals of urine excretion rate of the tested formulations were 82.4% ～122.6% (Group 1) and 85.4% ～124.6% (Group 2),respectively and the maximum excretory rates were 80.3% ～131.5% (Group 1) and 82.3～136.5% (Group 2),respectively,compared with the reference formulations. CONCLUSION:The two different Alendronate Sodium Tablets and their respective reference formulations were proved to be bioequivalent in healthy volunteers.

Objective To observe whether bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can promote the repair of IgA nephropathy and to explore its possible mechanism. Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups which were MSCs injection group, normal saline(NS) infusion group and healthy control group. IgA nephropathy model was established by the improving method with BSA +SEB +CCl4 in former two groups. MSCs of SD rats were continuously cultured in vitro and identified with specific surface antigens by flow cytometry and osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. MSCs were labeled with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) in vitro before transplanted. At 1st and 4th week after MSCs injection, the changes of body weight, urine protein, renal function, histopathology and IgA immunofluorescence were observed. MCP-1, TGF-β1 in urine were detected by ELISA. The expression of MCP-1, TGF-β1 in kidney were examined by RT-PCR. The cytokines and BrdU labeled MSCs were detected by immunohistochemistry to observe the disposition in kidney. Results At the end of the first week of MSCs transplantation, MSCs group urine protein (36.86±4.78) mg/24 h, serum creatinine (53.50±6.28) μmol/L, and the NS group urine protein (66.98±5.86) mg/24 h, serum creatinine (82.50±8.36) μmol/L, the differences between two groups were significant (P<0.05). At the same time, the content of MCP-1, TGF-β1 in urine and expression in renal tissue of MSCs group were obviously less than those of NS group (P <0.05). At the end of the 4th week, the body weight, histopatholngy, IgA immunofluorescence of MSCs group were remarkably improved as compared with those of NS group. The content of MCP-1, TGF-β1 in urine and expression in renal tissue, and renal pathological change in MSCs group had no significant differences as compared with those of healthy control group. As the time passed, the disposition of BrdU-labeled MSCs in kidney was taper. Conclusions MSCs injection contributes to renal repair in rat IgA nephropathy. The mechanism may partly depend on adjusting the excretion of cytokines in renal microenvironment and/or other functions rather than completely depend on their differentiation to renal cells.

Objective:To explore the effect of total parenteral nutrition and combined resection of involved organs on gastric cancer. Methods: The clinical data of 67 patients with advanced gastric cancer who had accepted total parenteral nutrition(TPN)and combined resection of involved organs between June,2001 and November,2006 were reviewed and compared with no TPN patients. Results: Combined resection organs included spleen and pancreas tail(19 cases), spleen(12 cases), gallbladder(8 cases), transverse colon(7 cases), etc. No patient died in hospital in both TNP group and no TNP group. Compared with the control group, the levels of blood transferrin, albumin, and natural killer cells increased in TPN group in 7 days after operation (P

Objective: To investigate constitutional and phys ical stamina status in soldiers with different adaption periods in Tibetan areas . Methods: Two hundred and eithty-two male soldiers from a barr acks at an elevation of 3 600 m were divided into 2 groups: the veteran group ( n=143) in Tibet for 1.45±0.22 year, and the recruit group (n=139) in Ti bet for 0.33±0.00 years. The test items included body weight, cirumference, st a nding long jump, chin-up, 100 m dash and 3 000 m jogging, all were evaluated ac cording to the national military standard, which were Comprehensive Evaluation o f Health in Troops, and Examination and Evaluation of the Physical Stamina of So ldiers. Results: The physical stamina indexes of both the vetera ns and the recruits were up to the national military norm on the whole, ranking as moderate. The veteran group showed no significant difference in standing long jump and 100 m dash,（P<0.05), but obvious lower level in chin-up and 3 00 0 m jogging（P<0.01）, compared with the national military norm. The recr ui t group showed significant lower level in chin-up, 100 m dash, 3 000 m jogging as compared with the national military norm（P<0.01）, and also significant lower level in chin-up and 3 000 m jogging （P<0.05 or P<0.01) as compa red with the veteran group. Conclusion: The physical stamina of both the veterans and the recruits meet the basic national military requirements , ranking as moderate. The soldiers who have been in service for over 1 year hav e better explosive force, but they need more tolerance and aerobic exercises. Th e newly recruited need more exercise to raise tolerance to the hypoxic environme nt in plateau areas so as to shorten the adaption time to high altitude.

In order to investigate the features of multidetector CT (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as the corresponding pathogic basis of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) in the pelvis, we collected the clinical data of 13 patients with pathologically confirmed SFT in pelvis, and retrospectively reviewed the MDCT and MRI appearances. Of these enrolled patients, 6 received MDCT scans, 5 underwent MRI scans, and 2 underwent both MDCT and MRI examinations. Shown on the MDCT and MRI, the maximum diameters of the masses ranged from 4.0 to 25.2 cm (averaged 11.8 cm). Six masses were lobulated, and seven were round or oval. In addition, all masses were well-defined and displaced the adjacent structures to some degrees. On the computed tomography, all masses were of isodensity on unenhanced scans in general, among which five masses were demonstrated with hypodense areas. On the MRI T1-weighted image, all lesions were isointense, of which patchy hypointense areas were detected in 3 cases and radial hypointense areas were in 3 cases, and the other one was presented with homogenous intensity. On T2-weighted images, most of the lesions were mixed hyperintense, of which 3 cases were of heterogenous hyperintesity, radial hypointense areas were detected in 3 patients, and the other one was homogenously intense. On enhanced computed tomography and MRI, large supplying vessels were found in 4 cases; 12 cases showed moderate to conspicuous enhancement, and the other one was presented with mild homogenous enhancement. Of the patients with moderate to conspicuous enhancement, patchy areas of non-enhancement were detected in 7 cases, radial areas of progressive enhancement were detected in 3 cases, and the remained 2 cases showed homogenous enhancement. On pathology, the radial area presented as progressive enhancement was fibrosis. During the follow-ups after surgery, 2 patients had local recurrence and 1 had metastasis to liver. In conclusion, the SFT in the pelvis are commonly presented as a large solid, well-defined and hypervascular mass with necrosis or cystic changes at some extents together with the displacement of adjacent structures. The radial area with hypointensity on T2-weighted image and with progressive enhancement on enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is an important feature of SFT, which can be helpful for the diagnosis of this mass.
