Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2011;27(2):109-113
Ophthalmic imaging including radiographic imaging, acoustic imaging and optical imaging,as a branch of medical imaging has developed rapidly. Optical imaging is very suitable for fundus examination because of the physiological characteristics of the eye. Ophthalmoscope and fundus fluorescein angiography are two historical stages of fundus optical imaging, which become an independent new discipline now, including infrared fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence, fundus fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography and optical coherence tomography. Comprehensive optical imaging plays an irreplaceable role in the diagnosis and treatment evaluation of ocular fundus diseases. Appropriate understanding the principles and significance of various optical imaging methods is very important for their clinical applications.

Persistent infection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains as a worldwide threat to public health,which involves a complex interaction between virus- and host related factors.HCV is classified as six genotypes and many subtypes according to the sequence heterogenecity.HCV genotype should be determined prior to treatment initiation since it plays a key role in selection of therapeutic regimen for chronic hepatitis C.Development of the antiviral treatment with protease inhibitor in combination with pegylated IFN-α and ribavirin requires the accurate determination of subtypes,e.g. 1a and 1b,as well.Genotyping methods based onsequenceanalysis, reversehybridizationorreal-timePCRhavebeendevelopedand evaluated.Some issues,however,should be settled to standardize the utility and result interpretation of these methods.More recently,host genotypes of IL28B have been found to be closely associated with HCV spontaneous clearance and the response to antiviral therapy.Moreover,polymorphisms in inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase gene affect ribavirin-induced anemia.Therefore, host genotyping will be beneficial in predicting the outcome of chronic hepatitis C and monitoring the drug-induced adverse events.

BACKGROUND: With the continuous renewal and development of clinical repair techniques, the intraoperatie blood loss has been greatly reduced in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture; however, no matter what kind of repair methods should be adopted, there are stil a large amount of perioperative hidden blood loss, however, there are few clinical reports for the reasons and related factors. OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of perioperative hidden blood loss with gender and internal fixation methods in the surgery of elderly femoral intertrochanteric fractures.METHODS: Total y 121 patients with elderly femoral intertrochanteric fractures who received the treatment at Department of Orthopedics, Nanyang City Center Hospital from March 2010 to June 2013 were divided into two groups according to the condition and treatment wishes of patients, and were respectively treated with dynamic hip screw and proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail internal fixation. The preoperative hidden blood loss, postoperative hidden blood loss, the total hidden blood loss, dominant blood loss and total blood loss of patients in these two groups were compared. The multiple linear regression analysis on the correlation of perioperative hidden blood loss with gender and internal fixation methods was conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There was no significant difference in the preoperative hidden blood loss between these two groups (P > 0.05). The total blood loss, postoperative hidden blood loss and total hidden blood loss in the proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail group were significantly higher than those in the dynamic hip screw group (P < 0.05), and the dominant blood loss was significantly lower than that in the dynamic hip screw group (P <0.05). There were significant differences in the preoperative, postoperative hidden blood loss and total hidden blood loss between males and females (P < 0.05), and above indexes in males were significantly lower than in females. The multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender and internal fixation methods were correlated with hidden blood loss (P < 0.05). These results suggest that the perioperative hidden blood loss in surgery for elderly femoral intertrochanteric fractures is closely related to gender and above indexes in internal fixation methods. The perioperative hidden blood loss of male patients is less than that of female patients, and the patients treated with proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail fixation have more hidden blood loss than dynamic hip screw fixation.

BACKGROUND:Proximal femoral locking plate and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation are the two common methods for the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures in clinic. However, there were few randomized control ed trials on the comparison of both methods. Most of them are retrospective case analysis, and short of systematic evaluation. OBJECTIVE:To systematical y evaluate the clinical outcomes and safety between locking compression plate and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation for the treatment of the femoral intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:The Cochrane Library (No.2 in 2015), PubMed(1966-01/2015-06), MEDLINE (1966-01/2015-06), EMbase (1984-01/2015-06), CNKI (1979-01/2015-06), VIP(1989-01/2015-06)and WanFang Data(1990-2015)were searched by computer. Meanwhile, relevant literature from the relevant journals and references were searched by hand. Al the randomized control ed trials concerning locking compression plate and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation for the treatment of the femoral intertrochanteric fractures were col ected. The literature was strictly filtered out according to the inclusion criteria, and was strictly evaluated for the quality. Meta-analysis on the included results was performed with RevMan5.2 software from the Cochrane col aboration. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were 54 potential y relevant papers, and final y, 11 randomized control ed trials were eligible for this investigation. A total of 917 patients were included containing locking compression plate group (464 cases), proximal femoral nail anti-rotation group (453 cases). The Meta-analysis results showed that there were no significant differences in Harris scores, excel ent rate, complications, fracture healing time and hospital stays after treatment between the locking compression plate and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation groups. However, there were significant differences in the time of operation [MD=15.80,95%CI(7.57-24.04), P=0.000 2], peri-operative blood loss [MD=98.01, 95%CI(58.57-137.44),P<0.01], ambulation loading time [MD=8.07,95%CI(3.02-13.12),P=0.002], the length of incision [MD=6.90,95%CI(1.07-12.73), P=0.02] and postoperative drainage volume [MD=41.85,95%CI(23.77-59.93),P<0.01]. These results suggest that the treatment of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation had shortened the length of incision and the time of operation. The treatment of locking compression plate took more time of ambulation loading time, more peri-operative blood loss and postoperative drainage volume. Because the number of cases which this study included are few, and the fol ow-up time was shorter, we should design stricter large sample randomized control ed studies in future increase the strength of the evidence by conducting medium and long-term fol ow-up.
