In the occupational production and the daily life,the pollutant of pesticides may enter our bodies through the skincontact,the breath and the gastrointestinal absorption and so on. It may cause the reproductive organ and the spermatogenic cell damaged,abnormal endocrine function and the reproduction related genes expressed abnormally,resulting to abnormal spermatogenesis,which leads to oligospermia,asthenospermia,teratospermia and azoospermia. In order to look for a normal pattern and investigate the intrinsic mechanism of the cytotoxicity to the spermatogenic cell correlated with the pesticide pollution,it is necessary to review the relationship between the toxicity of pesticide pollutant and the abnormity of male spermatogenic cell,which will provide some basic information for preventing and controlling the reproductive toxicity of pesticides and ensuring the reproduction healthy of people.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between lasar in situ keratomileusis(LASIK) and macular hemorrhage after the operation.Methods 1840 patients(3430 eyes) treated by LASIK in our hospital were reviewed for macular hemorrhage in the past four years(July,2001 to 2005).Results The rate of macular hemorrhage was 0.26%(9/3430) after LASIK.The shortest period of time from the LASIK to the occurrence of macular hemorrhage was 20 days and the longest was 8 months 2 patients(2 eyes) with the history of macular hemorrhage suffered hemorrhage again after the LASIK,among the 65 cases with Fuchs spot in macula,there were 4 cases(6.15%) with macular hemorrhage.Conclusions We think there is no direct cause-effect relation between LASIK and macular hemorrhage.LASIK will not increase the rate of macular hemorrhage,but these cases with the history of macular hemorrhage,pathological changes with Fuchs,or fluorescence leaks in checking of FFA cannot receive LASIK.

BACKGROUND:Thrombus formation and neointimal hyperplasia still limit the use of small-caliber expanded poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (ePTFE) vascular prosthesis with a diameter less than 6 mm for revascularization in the coronary or peripheral circulation. Bioactive surface heparin coating is one conceivable path for above-mentioned problems.OBJECTIVE: To elevate the anticoagulant property of ePTFE, this study promoted the patency of a novel small-caliber ePTFE vascular graft by modifying its luminal surface with covalently crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol)/ p-diazonium diphenyl amine polymer/heparin gel (PVA/PA/Hep gel) and examined the hemocompatibility of the graft.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Observational experiments were performed at the Nanomedicine and Biosensor Lab,Biomedical Engineering Center, Harbin Institute of Technology from May 2006 to June 2007.MATERIALS: The ePTFE vascular grafts (diameter of 4 mm), Nafion (Naf) and Poly(vinyl alcohol) (Aldrich, USA), heparin (Mw 12 000- 14 000) (Calbiochem, USA), p-diazonium diphenyl amine polymer (PA) (this lab, China) were used in this study.METHODS: ①The vascular graft surface was firstly modified with Nafion. ②Following the impregnation of the mixture of PVA/PA/Hep, covalent crosslinking between polyvinyl alcohol and heparin was performed using crosslinker PA under ultraviolet radiation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Contact angles, ②Attenuated total reflection-fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), ③Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothromhin time (PT), ④hemolysis test, ⑤platelet adhesion test and ⑥thrombosin inactivation test.RESULTS: ①The water contact angle of the vascular graft surface was greatly decreased after modifying. ATR-FTIR revealed the disappearance of diazonium groups at 2 172 cm-1 and 2 224 cm-1. Vascular prosthesis after modifying had prolonged APTT and PT, low percent hemolysis and low amount of platelet adhesion. Modified vascular prosthesis had inhibitory effect on thrombosin activity and good coating stability.CONCLUSION: Converage of PVA/PA/Hep has good antithrombotic function and low percent hemolysis, resulting in improving hemocompatibility of vascular prosthesis.

Sodium alginate and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) were purchased from Sigma. Heparin sodium salt was obtained from Calbiochem. Nation and chitosan were purchased from Aldrich company. Human α-thrombin and AT Ⅲ were purchased from Haematologic Technologies, Inc. S-2238 was purchased from Chromogenix.METHODS: This study was performed at the Laboratory for Nanomedicine and Biosensor, Biomedicine Engineering Center, Harbin Institute of Technology between May 2006 and June 2007. The graft was first modified with Nation and then Chitosan/Nafion/Chitosan multilayer. Following the impregnation of heparin and alginate, covalent crosslinking was performed using ethylenediamine and EDC. Some characterization methods were employed: stastic water contact angle for the hydrophilicity; SEM for the surface morphology; ATR-FTIR for the surface chemical characteristics; APTT and PT,percent hemolysis and Chromogenic assay for the hemocompatibility of the ePTFE vascular graft after modification.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Static water contact angles. ②Charactedzation of the surface morphology and platelet adhesion by SEM. ③ATR-FTIR ④APTT and PT. ⑤Percent hemolysis ⑥Chromogenic assay for heparin activity.RESULTS: ①ATR-FTIR revealed the presence of -CO-NH- at 1626 cm-1. ②The water contact angle was greatly decreased from (125±1)° to (84±2)° .③The prolonged APTT and PT, low percent hemolysis(0.065%) and low amount of platelet adhesion assay showed the H/A gel impregnated graft had good blood compatibility. ④Chromogenic assay showed the modified graft was less thrombogenic than the bare one, and the H/A coating had good stability in. PBS buffer.CONCLUSION: The H/A modified ePTFE vascular graft has great potential in applications utilizing small-diameter vascular grafts.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of psychological intervention on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) accompanied by psychogenic disturbance.Methods112 patients with ACS were evaluated with depression status inventory (DSI) and symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90). The cases accompanied with depression were randomly divided into the psychological intervention group (group A) and drug group (group B). Patients of group A were treated with psychological intervention besides routine therapy. The curative effects of the two groups were compared.Results79 cases (70.5%) had depression. Their scores of somatization, depression, anxiety, fear, paranoid ideation, and total score and positive symptom distress level of SCL-90 were significantly different compared with the normal group. After psychological intervention, to patients of the group A, the DSI score fell and symptoms improved significantly (P<0.01), the in-patient duration shorten (P<0.05).ConclusionPsychogenic factors is not neglectable in the process and prognosis of ACS. Effective psychological intervention can promote the patient's healing.

Objective To compare the efficacy after conventional radiotherapy and late course accelerated fractionation radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods A total of 200 NPC patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to conventional radiotherapy (CF) group with 99 cases or late course accelerated fractionation radiotherapy (LCAF) group with 101 cases,who received irradiation to 60Co γ or 6 MV X-rays.In the CF group,the total dose of nasopharynx was 70 Gy/35 fractions at 2 Gy daily.In the LCAF group,for the first two-thirds of the treatment,two daily fractions of 1.2 Gy were given to the primary lesion and the total dose was 48 Gy/40 fractions.For the last one third of the treatment,the dose per fraction was increased to 1.5 Gy and the total dose was 30 Gy/20 fractions.Results There were 25,16,25 in CF group and 16,13,18 patients in LCAF group who had recurrence of nasophaynx,cervical lymph nodes,and distant metastasis,respectively.The 5-year nasopharyngeal control and overall survival rates was 75.9％ and 87.6％ in CFgroup (x2 =4.066,P＜0.05),58.0％ and 74.1％(x2 =5.076,P ＜ 0.05) in LCAF group,respectively.Cervical lymph nodes local rates and distant metastasesfree rates at 5 years were 8 1.5％ and 90.0％ in CF group (P ＞ 0.05),74.1％ and 83.3％ (P ＞ 0.05) in LCAF group,respectively.Conclusions Compared with CF,LCAF can improve nasopharyngeal control and overall survival rates,but there are no significant difference in the recurrence rates of cervical lymph nodes and distant metastasis.

Objective To investigate the effects of the low-osmolar nonionic contrast media on renal function in elderly patients suffering from ischemic cerebral vascular disease and undergoing angiography.To study the incidence and risk factors for contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN).Methods 276 elderly patients who were going to receive selective cranial angiography and bilateral renal angiography were included.The 0.9 ％ sodium chloride (1 ml · kg-1 · h-1) was administered in all patients 6 hours before and 12 hours after contrast media administration.No patients suffered from obviously congestive heart failure.The levels of serum creatinine (Scr) and serum urea nitrogen (SUN) were measured 3 days before and at day 1,2,6 after the administration of contrast media respectively.Then creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) was calculated.Multivariate predictors of contrastinduced nephropathy were determined by logistic regression.Results Among the 276 patients,CIN occurred in 19 patients (6.9％),among whom 4 patients suffered from severe renal artery stenosis and received percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) at 1 week after undergoing angiography.The renal function in the other 15 cases with CIN were recovered to baseline 1evel 3 months after the use of contrast media.No patients underwent a maintenance hemodialysis.In the 19 patients with CIN,the levels of SUN and Scr were higher and Ccr was lower at day 1 and 2 after angiography than before the procedure (all P ＜ 0.05),but the parameters were decreased to preoperative level at day 6 after angiography (all P＞0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that renal dysfunction,diabetes mellitus and severe renal artery stenosis were the major risk factors for contrast-induced nephropathy.Conclusions Low-osmoiar nonionic contrast used in angiography is safe for elderly patients if adequately hydrated with 0.9 ％ sodium chloride.The clinical risk factors for CIN are renal dysfunction,diabetes mellitus and severe renal artery stenosis.
