Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of needling revision with mitomycin C(MMC) subconjuctival injection on early failed filtering blebs after trabeculectomy for glaucoma. Methods Needling revision with MMC 0.2 mL(0.04 mg) subconjuctival injection was performed on 86 eyes of 76 patients with failed filtering blebs 2 to 6 weeks after trabeculectomy for glaucoma.An average of 1.88 times of treatment was performed.The intraocular pressure(IOP),blebs and side effects were observed,and follow-up was conducted for 6 months. Results Two to six weeks after trabeculectomy,there were 50 eyes with thickened and focalized blebs,32 eyes with encapsulated blebs and 4 eyes with no bleb.Six months after needling revision with MMC subconjuctival injection,blebs of 61 eyes turned into functional ones.The blebs were thinned and multicysted in 24 eyes,diffused and elevated in 37 eyes,thickened and focalized in 6 eyes,encapsulated in 13 eyes and disappeared in 6 eyes.Three months after treatment,the mean IOP was(15.2?6.1) mmHg,and there were 57 eyes with IOP

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Shugan Jieyu Capsules for the treatment of maintenance hemodialysis patients with insomnia. Methods Forty maintenance hemodialysis patients with insomnia were randomized into observation group and control group by random number table method,20 cases in each group. Patients of the two groups were given conventional maintenance hemodialysis and fundamental treatment for controlling blood pressure and glucose,regulating calcium-phosphorus metabolism,and relieving anemia. And additionally,the control group was treated with Estazolam Tablets orally,and the observation group was treated with Shugan Jieyu Capsules orally. By using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)scale,we investigated the changes of the quality of sleep in two groups before and after treatment,and evaluated the therapeutic effect. Results (1)After treatment,PSQI scores of the two groups were obviously decreased,and the difference was significant (P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment). The observation group had stronger effect on decreasing PSQI scores than the control group,the difference being significant(P < 0.05).(2)The total effective rate of the observation group was 90.0% and that of the control group was 75.0%, the difference being significant (P<0.05). (3)During the treatment,adverse reaction of morning dizziness or drug dependence was not shown. Conclusion Shugan Jieyu Capsules exert certain therapeutic effect for the treatment of maintenance hemodialysis patients with insomnia by improving the quality of sleep.

Objective To explore the correlation of disease activity with the primary syndromes of deficiency and excess types of lupus nephritis(LN). Methods A retrospective study was carried out in 134 LN patients,and the LN patients were differentiated into deficiency syndrome(deficiency group)and excess syndrome(excess group). The disease activity related indicators of systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index(SLEDAI)scores, complements, inflammation indexes, and urine indicators were compared between the two groups. Results Of the 134 LN patients,33 cases were differentiated into excess syndrome,and 101 cases were differentiated into deficiency syndrome. According to the SLEDAI scores, 9.09％ of the patients in excess group were inactive, 4.95％ of the patients in deficiency group were inactive, and most of the patients in the two groups were at severe active stage. There was no significant difference of SLEDAI scores between the two groups(P>0.05) . The differences of complement C3 and C4 , inflammation indexes of C-reactive protein(CRP)and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),urine protein,and urine occult blood were also insignificant between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion There is no correlation between deficiency-excess syndrome differentiation and disease activity of LN. Most of the LN patients with deficiency syndrome are at active stage,but not at remission stage.

Professor TANG Shui-Fu believes that the development of renal proteinuria in chronic kidney disease is due to the deficiency of spleen and kidney,which leads to the malfunction in lifting lucid yang and lowering turbid yin of the body and the internal retention of turbid-toxin.The early stage of renal proteinuria is mainly induced by qi deficiency of spleen and kidney,and the middle and late stage of renal proteinuria results from the long-lasting spleen and kidney deficiency together with damp-toxin accumulation and is characterized by the mixture of healthy-qi deficiency and pathogenic-qi excess.Aimed at the key pathogenesis of the dysfunction of ascending and descending of qi movement,Professor TANG Shui-Fu treated the renal proteinuria with the principal method of strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidney,combined with method of eliminating dampness,draining turbidity and dissolving stasis targeted at the pathogenic-qi excess of damp-turbidity and stasis-toxin diffusing in the triple energizer.Meanwhile,the use of the method of replenishing and elevating Qi for regulating the qi movement of the spleen and kidney was stressed.In the early stage of renal proteinuria,the Chinese medicines with the actions of promoting the lifting of lucid yang such as Cimicifugae Rhizoma and Bupleuri Radix were added on the basis of herbs for strengthening the spleen and benefiting the kidney,so that the essence can be consolidated and proteinuria can be eliminated.In the middle and late stage of renal proteinuria,the course of the disease lasted a long time,and the internal attack of the pathogens caused the reversal and chaos of the lucid yang and turbid yin.In this case,treatment should follow the principal method of lowering turbid yin and by the assistance of the herbs for replenishing and elevating qi such as Astragali Radix,Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma,Poria,Dioscoreae Rhizoma,Cimicifugae Rhizoma,and Bupleuri Radix,so that the ascending and descending of qi movement can be coordinated,the lucid yang is raised and turbid yin is directed downward,the renal function is protected and the progression of chronic kidney disease is slowed down.

OBJECTIVETo explore the morphotic characteristics of hypoechoic nodules in the outer gland of the prostate with benign

METHODSTwenty-two hyperplastic hypoechoic nodules in the prostatic outer gland were biopsied guided by prostatic hyperplasia. transrectal ultrasound. The hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry combined with computer assisted quantitative image analyses were adopted to examine the mean percentages of the area densities of stroma, epithelium, glandular lumen and smooth muscle cells.

RESULTSThe area densities of stroma, epithelium, glandular lumen and smooth muscle cells were (72.52 +/- 13.14)%, (20.57 +/- 9.01)%, (6.85 +/- 4.51)% and (24.14 +/- 6.31)%, respectively.

CONCLUSIONHyperplastic hypoechoic nodules may develop in the outer gland as well as in the inner gland of the prostate, but the mean percentages of the components are different between the two kinds of nodules.

It is difficult to insert long-term dialysis catheters after severe stenosis or occlusion of the internal jugular vein and innominate vein. We used REcanalisation and balloon-oriented puncture for Re-insertion of dialysis catheter in nonpatent central veins (REBORN) in seven patients with severe central venous lesions, and all patients were inserted with long-term dialysis catheters successfully. None had severe complications such as pneumothorax, hemothorax, or pulmonary embolism during operation. All catheters functioned well after postoperative follow-up of 2 months. REBORN provides a novel approach to establish difficult dialysis pathways.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and safety of oxymatrine in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B.

METHODSA multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial was conducted. A total of 144 patients with chronic hepatitis B entered the study for 52 weeks; of them 72 received oxymatrine, and 72 received a placebo. Before and after the treatment, clinical symptoms, liver function, serum hepatitis B virus markers, and adverse drug reactions were observed.

RESULTSIn 144 patients, 14 were dropped and excluded due to inconsistencies in the included standard. Therefore, the efficacy and safety of 130 patients were analyzed. After being treated for 52 weeks, 70.77% of the patients in the study group had a normal ALT level, and in 43.08% and 33.33% their HBV DNA and HBeAg became negative. In the placebo group, 39.68% had normal ALT level, and 12.31% and 3.33% had their HBV DNA and HBeAg become negative. The rates of complete response and partial response in the oxymatrine group were 23.08% and 58.46%, and in the placebo group they were 3.08% and 44.62%. They were significantly higher in the oxymatrine group than in the placebo group. In the oxymatrine treated patients, 12 weeks after its withdrawal, 60.00% had a normal ALT level, 41.54% and 23.33% had both HBV DNA and HBeAg negative. In the placebo group, 31.75% had a normal ALT level, 3.08% and 1.67% had both HBV DNA and HBeAg negative. The rates of complete response and partial response in the oxymatrine group were 21.54% and 47.69%, and in the placebo group they were 0 and 41.54%. They were significantly higher in the study group than in the placebo group. The adverse reaction rates of oxymatrine in the study and the placebo group were 7.69% and 6.15%, respectively, but there was no statistical significant difference between them.

The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical value of the platelet antibody screening and typing in platelets transfusion by using microcolumn gel immunoassay (MGIA). The platelets antigen-antibody reactions including the antibody screen and blood crossmatch were detected by MGIA. The results indicated that the detection of platelet antibody showed positive in 30 cases of aplastic anemia (AA), 11 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), 24 out of 25 cases of leukemia and 1 out of cases of other diseases, while detection of platelet antibody showed negative in 20 normal volunteer donors. The number of platelet antibody crossmatch coincidence in 112 specimens of AA, 42 specimens of MDS and 95 specimens of leukemia were 45, 20 and 40, the coincidence rates were 40.18%, 47.62% and 42.11%. The mean corrected count increment (CCI) in 20 patients received platelet transfusion many times was 18.2 after crossmatch and 4.7 before crossmatch. It is concluded that the positive rate of platelet antibody screening is very high in patients with hematologic malignancies, the coincidence rate of platelet antibody crossmatch in 249 blood samples is between 40% and 48%, and the efficiency of using crossmatched platelets in clinic is enhanced significantly.
