Cornea is the major refractive components of the eye. As a viscoelastic tissue, cornea exhibits complicated biomechanical properties: non - linear elasticity, anisotropy and viscoelasticity. The biomechanical properties play an important role in keeping the normal structureand function. Changes in biomechanical properties are always earlier than the clinical symptoms. So quantitative measurement of the biomechanical properties benefits the early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Different methods to measure the biomechanical properties of cornea were reviewed in detail, including classic ex vivo destructive tests, commercially available in vivo measuring methods and other emerging methods with the potential for clinical application but not validated for in vivo measurement. The operating principles, advantages as well as limitations of these methods were also described.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effects of androgen blockade combined treatment for the elderly with middle and late prostate cancer.Methods 63 patients (average age of 69.3 years) with middle and late prostate cancer (above stage T3 ) were studied retrospectively from June 2001 to August 2009.21 cases were treated by operation of bilateral orchidectomy independently.15 cases were treated by castration independently (enantone 3.75 mg or zoladex 3.6 mg/month,hypodermic injection for one year).27 cases were treated by bilateral orchidectomy plus maximum androgen blockade (MAB) (bicalutamide 50 mg,qd,fulutimad 250 mg,rid,po.)Results The survival rates of 1,2,3 years were 100.0％,90.0％,75.0％ in operation group,100.0％,86.7 ％,73.3％ in drug group,and 100.0％,96.2％,84.6％ in MAB group,respectively.The survival rates of 3 years was higher in MAB group than the other groups(x2 =4.460,P＜0.05).The levels of PSA within 3 months decreased and urinary flow rates in three groups increased after treatment than before treatment (t =2.641,3.074,6.703,P ＜ 0.01 ) with no differences among the groups.The relieve period of validity was longer in MAB group than in other groups (F=16.57,P＜0.01 ).Conclusions MAB may be more effective for the elderly with middle and late prostate cancer than castration therapy independently.

Functional constipation(FC) in childhood is characterized by a low defecation frequency in combination with either involuntary loss of stools(encopresis),passage of large amounts of stool,retentive posturing,or hard and often painful defecation.It represents 3%-5% of general pediatric outpatient visits and up to 25% of pediatric gastroenterology consultations.FC is a diagnosis made by history and physical examination.No testing is necessary or desirable.The decision to seek medical care for symptoms arises from a parent′s or caretaker′s concern for children.The caretaker′s threshold for concern varies with his or her experiences and expectations,coping style,and perception of illness,till now there is not an universal native criteria established in spite of much has been done in it.The criteria used are still to draw assistance from the foreign standard,among which the classic criteria,the Rome Ⅱ and Rome Ⅲ criteria are considered commonly used.The purpose of this paper is to descript the several foreign criteria,and to make comparison among them,and to explore their applicability and effectiveness in childhood FC

Phospholipid fatty acids are the major constituents of the membranes of all living cells, and different groups of microorganism synthesize a variety of PLFA through various biochemical pathways. Several PLFAs can be used as "signatures" to analyze changes in microbial biomass and microbial communities structure. More and more PLFA method was used in soil microbial analysis. This article briefly reviewed the applications of PLFA methods in soil microbial analysis.

Objective:To explore the cooradinative training model of postgraduate and and residency of nuclear medicine based on the ability promotion. Develop the learning of basic medical imaging knowledge, the training of clinical practice, the development of scientific research ability and the training of new technology and so on.Methods: Bibliometric analysis was used to analysis the domestic and overseas current situation and research hotspot about carrying out the training of clinical medicine and residency. Combing the existing problem and combined the characteristic of medical imaging, a training model based on ability enhancements be proposed and supporting system is constructed.Results:Search on the Wanfang Database, 170 literatures were obtained from 2007 to 2016 about training of postgraduates and residents of clinical medicine. The annual distribution was increased gradually, the articles number in 2016 was 4.3 times than in 2007. The research hotspots focus on the integration of medical postgraduate student and resident, clinical ability and cultivation of scientific research thinking ability , the penetration of new technology and the choices of research topics. Literature review shows the postgraduates of medical imaging faced the deficiency of anatomy and radiology knowledge, the capacity for scientific research, the training of new radiology technology. Proposed nuclear medicine postgraduate students and residency training cooradinative transformation of the new model and developed a corresponding training curriculum training system.Conclusion: Based on the background of capacity enhancement, the new model of postgraduate and clinicians training mechanism, the operation of collaborative transformation model, reasonable arrangements for the training and scientific research, the focused training, these methods could effectively satisfied both training needs. In order to develop the high-quality talent with both clinical experience and scientific research ability.

Considering a variety of theories such like Dunkin's, Centra's and Kolitch's, a set of 13 indicators are designed to evaluate effect of courses taken in high education of China currently, compro-mised by chief aspects of course designing, practicing, and effect. Three courses including medical nursing, humanistic cultivation and communication skills in nursing and fundamentals of nursing in a nursing de-partment are chosen to be objects of questionnaire survey about the above indicators. The results show that there are significant differences in curriculum effectiveness between different courses. The scores are 2.81, 2.80 and 2.60 respectively, and teachers and students have different evaluation on the same indicators of the same curriculum,which provides a reference for teachers, colleges and universities and teaching management departments to promote the improvement of teaching quality.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of pelvic fracture related urethral injury (PFUI).Methods We retrospectively reviewed 120 patients with pelvic fracture from March 2014 to October 2016 in our hospital.Of all the patients,87 were males and 33 were females.The average age was (42.6 ± 15.4) years old (ranging 1 1-78 years old).The etiology of pelvic fracture included traffic accident in 70 cases,fall injury in 27 case.Heavy crash in 23 cases.43 male patients had an PFUI.Their average age was (40.4 ± 14.5) years old (ranging 14-61 years old).Of PFUI patients,the location of urethral injury included membranous part in 16 cases,bulbomenbranous part in 17 and prostatic part in 10 cases.The average length of stricture was (3.0 ± 1.9) centimeter.One patient suffered the stricture,combined with bladder rupture.One patient had urethro-rectal fistula.Two patients had urethrocutaneous fistula.The pelvic fractures were categorized using Tile classification,including type A1 fractures in 10 cases,A2 in 10 cases,B1 in 14 cases,B2 in 31 cases,B3 in 42 cases,C1 in 2 cases and C2 in 11 cases.The patients' number of urethral injury in each type was 1,2,2,7,29,0,2,respectively.Hazard degree analysis and chisquare test were used to evaluate the risk factors.Variables with an association of P ＜ 0.05 were then tested using binary logistic regression and the area under the curve(AUC).Results On hazard degree analysis,female(x2 =25.419,P ＜ 0.05,OR =0.571) and type B3 fracture (x2 =31.002,P ＜ 0.05,OR =10.198)have a significant impact on the occurrence of PFUI.On binary logistic regression,female(Walds =16.528,P ＜ 0.05,adjusted OR =0.003)is the protective factor of PFUI while type B3 fracture (Walds =10.853,P ＜0.05,adjusted OR =28.537) is the risk factor.The area under the curve (AUC =0.891,95％ CI0.826-0.956) illustrates the regression model has a high credibility.Conclusions Pelvic fracture urethral injury is much less likely to occur in females than men.Type B3 fracture is more likely to cause an PFUI than the others type.
