AIM: To investigate the change of myopic choroidal neovascularization treated by ranibizumab and evaluate their value in monitoring the effect of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) therapy. ·METHODS: The study enrolled 30 patients ( 30 eyes ) diagnosed with myopic choroidal neovascularization. All affected eyes were treated with intravitreal ranibizumab 0. 05mL ( 10mg/mL ). Best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , non-contact tonometer, ophthalmoscope, fundus fluorescein angiograph ( FFA ) and OCTA were evaluated monthly until 6mo. The changes of BCVA and central macular thickness ( CMT) were compared at 1, 3 and 6mo after treatment. ·RESULTS:All patients received an average of 1. 70±0. 65 injections. BCVA was 0. 96 ± 0. 17 ( LogMAR ) before therapy, and BCVA 1, 3 and 6mo after treatment respectively improved by 0. 23 ± 0. 09, 0. 34 ± 0. 07, 0. 38 ± 0. 11. The differences were significant ( t=5. 461, 8. 191, 8. 894; P<0. 05 ). Mean CMT decreased form 281. 07 ± 13. 72μm to 261. 33 ± 13. 13μm, 243. 47 ± 16. 65μm, 234. 73 ± 17. 52μm respectively 1, 3 and 6mo after treatment, showing significant differences (t=12. 007, 13. 360, 9. 531;P<0. 05). OCTA revealed a progressively smaller vascular lesion and reduction in capillary density. · CONCLUSION: Intravitreal ranibizumab for CNV secondary to pathologic myopia is effective and safe;OCTA is a noninvasive and time-saving new technology, and it also is a promising tool for clinicians to make preliminary diagnosis and assess treatment efficacy in the follow-up visits.

BACKGROUND:Hidden blood loss is one of most important complications after total knee arthroplasty, but the mechanism and influential factors are not yet clear. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the relative influential factors for hidden blood loss in primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:Data of 235 patients who had undergone primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty from April to September 2014 were retrospectively studied. There were 38 males and 197 females aged from 48 to 82 years old with a mean age of 66 years. The Gross formula was used to calculate the amount of hidden blood loss. The effects of gender, age, height, body weight, body mass index, anesthesia method, administration of tranexamic acid, postoperative anticoagulation method, typeof prosthesis, tourniquet time and pre-operative coagulation function on the postoperative hidden blood loss and total blood loss after total knee arthroplasty were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Significant differences in hidden blood loss and total blood loss after total knee arthroplasty were detected between male and female patients (P< 0.01). Significant differences in hidden blood loss and total blood loss were found between tranexamic acid and non-tranexamic acid groups (P< 0.05,P< 0.01).(2) Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that preoperative hemoglobin level and heightwere important factors influencing the blood loss after arthroplasty. Hidden blood loss and total blood loss were not correlated with age, body mass index, anesthesia method, postoperative anticoagulation method, type of prosthesis, tourniquet time and preoperative coagulation function. (3) Results indicate that gender and administration of tranexamic acid affect hidden blood loss and total blood loss after total knee arthroplasty. However, age, body mass index, anesthesia method, postoperative anticoagulation method, type of prosthesis, tourniquet time and preoperative coagulation function do not greatly affect hidden blood loss.
