Myopia is not only a global public health problem, but also a significant socio-economic problem. There are various hypotheses about the pathogenesis of myopia, which is basically the result of the combination of environmental and genetic factors. Although a large number of epidemiological studies have been carried out on the influencing factors of myopia, most of them are cross-sectional studies, longitudinal cohort studies are relatively few. This paper will summarize the influencing factors of myopia at homeland and abroad in recent years.

Objective To study whether the warm ischemia-reperfusion injury can be alleviated if the hepatic glycogen content were increased before liver transplantation.Methods The male SD rats as donors and recipients were divided into groups A,B and C randomly.In group A,the rats were al- lowed access to solid and water ad libitum;In group B,the rats drank glucose liquor for 4 days prior to liver harvesting;In group C,the rats were intravenously injected with 50% glucose besides the protocol in group B 3-4 h prior to liver harvesting.According to the non-heart-beating time(the non- heart-beating time were set into 60,90,120 and 150 min),the rats in groups A,B and C were divided into 4 subgroups,and the orthotopic liver transplantation was performed and the hepatic glycogen and ATP contents were measured.The one-week survival rate and the serum levels of MDA and SOD in the recipients were determined after liver transplantation.Results The hepatic glycogen and ATP con- tents in groups B and C were more than those in group A significantly(P

Objective To study the diagnostic value of calcification in differentiating benign and malignant thyroid lesions. Methods CT images of 318 consecutive patients with pathologically proven thyroid lesions were retrospectively reviewed by two radiologists. The following characteristics of calcification on CT images were evaluated: (1) size (≤2 mm indicating microcalcification and > 2 mm or shelly and irregular shape indicating macrocalcification, and both features indicating mixed calcification), (2) number (single or multiple) and (3)location (internal or edge). χ~2 test was used for statistical analysis. Results Oft he 318 cases, 48 were diagnosed as malignant (papillary carcinoma 26, follicular carcinoma 7, medullary carcinoma 3 and microcarcinoma 12) and 270 were benign (nodular goiter 36, adenoma 170, nodular goiter with adenoma 38 and adenoma with Hashimoto's thyroiditis 26). Calcification was found in 60 cases (18.9%). Among them 21 (papillary carcinoma 12,microcarcinoma 6,follicular carcinoma 2 and medullary carcinoma 1) were malignant(43.8%) and 39(nodular goiter 6, adenoma 13,nodular goiter with adenoma 19 and adenoma with Hashimoto's thyroiditis 1) were benign (14.4%) (P < 0.01). Sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing thyroid carcinoma were 43.8% (21/48) and 85.6% (231/270), respectively. Microcalcification was found in 37 cases (malignant 8, benign 29) and macrocalcification was found in 23 cases(malignant 13, benign 10) (P < 0.01) . Sensitivity and specificity of macrecalcification for diagnosing thyroid carcinoma were 61.9% (13/21) and 74.4% (29/39), respectively. Single calcification was found in 31 cases (malignant 13, benign 18) and multiple calcification was found in 29 cases(malignant 8, benign 21) (P >0.05). Internal calcification was found in 15 cases of malignant lesions(71.4%) and 12 of benign lesions(30.8%); Edge calcification was found in 6 cases of malignant and 27 of benign, (P <0.01). Sensitivity and specificity of internal calcification for diagnosing thyroid carcinoma were 71.4% (15/21) and 69.2% (27/39), respectively. Conclusion Internal calcification or(and) macrocalcification of the thyroid lesions may strongly suspect thyroid carcinoma and fine-needle aspiration or surgery should be further performed.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of adductor magnus tendon transposition with arthroscopic in reconstruction medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) for the treatment of patellofemoral joint instability of adolescents. Methods Eighteen juvenile patients (21 knees) with patellofemoral joint instability (including chronic patellar dislocation and recurrent patellar dislocation) were treated with adductor magnus tendon transposition for MPFL reconstruction, combined with lateral patellofemoral ligament release. They were followed up for 12- 30 months. The complications, patellofemoral angles and Lysholm scores before and after operation were recorded and compared. Results There was no complications such as wound infection, redislocation, patellofemoral joint instability and epiphyses injured. All patients got excellent knee flexion and extension function. Patella fear tests were all negative. The patellofemoral angles and Lysholm scores after operation were improved significantly than those before operation:(10.3 ± 4.1)° vs. (-3.8 ± 4.9)°, (92.7 ± 3.6) scores vs. (61.5 ±2.4) scores, P<0.01. Conclusions Adductor magnus tendon transposition with arthroscopic in reconstruction MPFL can significantly improve the stability of patellofemoral joints. This is one of the effective methods for the treatment of patellofemoral joint instability of adolescents.

Objective To explore the effect of sustained performance on EEG approximate entropy (ApEn).Methods Fifty participants were divided into two groups according to whether they had undergone sustained performance .One day af-ter the sustained-performance group finished executing their task , the resting EEG of nine electrodes ( F3, Fz, F4, C3, Cz, C4, P3, Pz and P4) was acquired in two grups separately , and the ApEn of each electrode was calculated as well . Results The ApEn of F3 and Fz showed an evident decrease as well as randomness of spontaneous brain electrode activity in frontal lobes , especially in the left one .Conclusion The drop of ApEn and the asymmetry of frontal lobes might reflect participants′state of fatigue during sustained performance .

Objective To evaluate the effect of the gastric signet ring cell cancer(SIG)on the T,N,M stages. Methods Three hundred and fifty-one patients undergoing D2 or greater gastrectomy for gastric cancer were ana lyzed retrospectively.The T,N,M stages of 59 patients with SIG and 161 patients with tubular adenocarcmonla (TUB)were compared using univariate and multivariate analysis.Results The chi-square test showed that there were not significant differences in T,N,M stages between TUB and SIG.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that SIG Was not a independent factor influencing the T,N.M stage.Conclusion Gastric cancer with SIG has not higher T,N,M stages than that with TUB.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of MR cholangiopancreatography(MRCP) using three-dimensional fast recovery fast spin-echo(3D FRFSE) in differentiating benign from malignant causes of biliary and pancreatic duct dilatation.Methods 106 cases suspected biliary and pancreatic duct dilatation underwent 3D FRFSE MRCP.The images were prospectively analysed by two skilled radiologists,and the results were compared with that of surgery,biopsy or follow-up.Results MRCP was successful performed at one time in all cases.On MRCP,the visual rate of intra-and extrahepatic bile duct was 100% and that of main pancreatic duct was 93.4%.80 patients had benign lesions: bile duct lithiasis(n=66),papillitis(n=6),descending part of duodenum diverticulitis(n=2),duodenal adenomatoid hyperplasia(n=1) and chronic pancreatitis(n=5).26 patients had malignant lesions: extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(n=9),ampullary carcinoma(n=5),gallbladder carcinoma(n=4) and pancreatic head carcinoma(n=8).The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy in differentiating benign from malignant causes of biliary dilatation were 92.3%,96.3% and 95.3%,respectively.Conclusion 3D FRFSE MRCP plays an important role in diagnosis of differentiating diagnosis of the causes of biliary dilatation in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors of nosocomial infection in patients with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer during radiotherapy with concomitant weekly paclitaxel treatment. METHODS Twenty six cases of advanced nasopharyngeal cancer patients in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS There were 20 cases of nosocomial infection from inpatients.The infection rate was 76.9 % and isolates of bacteria were found,of which Candida albicans accounted for 46.2%,Gram-negatives were 38.5%,Gram-positives were 11.5%.The main risk factors were long time hospitalization,oral mucosal lesion,leukocytopenia,improper application of antibiotic and glucocorticoids. CONCLUSIONS To prevent and control nosocomial infection in advanced nasopharyngeal cancer during radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy,measures such as shortening hospitalization days,reinforcing oral nursing,preventing the leukocytopenia,reasonable using of antibiotics and glucocorticoids should be adopted.

Objective To evaluate MRI in the diagnosis of the bone contusion of the knee joint and its clinical significance.Methods Using special coil for knee joint,coronal,sagittal,axial and oblique sagittal plane scanning with fast spin-echo sequence(T_1WI,T_2WI,PDWI+FS)was performed on knee joint in 205 patients in three days after injury.According the distributing bone marrow edema and injury mechanism,bone contusion were classified five types as pivot shift injury,clip injury,dashboard injury, hyperextension injury and lateral patellar dislocation.Results One hundred and forty-five cases of the 205 patients were found bone marrow edema without fracture on X-ray films.Among them,pivot shift injury was found in 43 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 30 cases,tear of the posterior horn of the lateral or medial meniscus in 12 and tears of the medial collateral ligament in 8 cases;clip injury in 53 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 10 cases,tear of the posterior horn of the lateral or medial meniscus in 15 and tears of the medial collateral ligament in 38 cases;dashboard injury 40 cases accompanied with posterior cruciate ligament rupture in 16 cases,hyperextension injury 9 cases accompanied with anterior cruciate ligament rupture in 2 cases,posterior cruciate ligament rupture in 5 cases.No lateral patellar dislocation was found.Forty-eight of 145 patients had undergone arthroscopy, 43 cases(89.6%)of them were in accordance with MRI diagnosis.Bone contusion were defined as geographic regions of abnormal signal intensity,that is,low signal intensity in T_1-weighted images and high signal intensity in PD-weighted or T_2-weigeted images with fat saturation.Conclusion MRI can accurately display the location and area of bone contusion of the knee joint as well as its adjunctive structure injury and deduce their injury mechanism.MRI should be used routinely for knee trauma.
