BACKGROUND:In the clinical treatment of diabetic retinopathy, the therapeutic effects of different filers on the retina and optic nerve after the removal of the vitreous are lack of comprehensive and detailed reports. OBJECTIVE:To observe the changes of retina and optic nerve in patients with diabetic retinopathy after filing cyclic polydimethylsiloxane. METHODS: Totaly 147 patients with diabetic retinopathy undergoing vitreous removal were enroled, including 77 males and 70 females, aged 35to70 years. The vitreous from 74 patients with diabetic retinopathy was filed with cyclic polydimethylsiloxane (test group). The cyclic polydimethylsiloxane was taken out at 3 months post-operation. The vitreous from another 73 patients with diabetic retinopathy was filed with the whole fluorine propane (control group). The changes of retina, optic nerve, intraocular pressure, and the occurrence of vitreous re-hemorrhage and cataract after operation were observed in these two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After 7 days of folow-up, the intraocular pressure of patients in the test group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). After 6 months of folow-up, there was no significant difference in the intraocular pressure between these two groups. After 6 months of folow-up, cyclic polydimethylsiloxane was successfuly removed in the test group, retinal blood vessels became thinning with the presence of white sheath, and the number of optic nerves was higher than the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of vitreous re-hemorrhage and cataract in the test was higher than the control group (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that after the removal of the vitreous, cyclic polydimethylsiloxane filing can lead to optic atrophy in patients with diabetic retinopathy.

Objective To investigate the myocardial protective effects ,mechanism and safety of recombinant human erythropoie-tin(rHuEPO) pretreatment in the patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) .Methods Thirty pa-tients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing valve replacement surgery were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group ,15 cases in each group .The observation group was given rHuEPO 300IU/kg by hypodermic injection on preoperative 2 d ,once daily for twice .The control group was given the same dose of normal saline .The blood routine was performed before sur-geryandonpostoperative7d.Thelevelsofcreatinekinaseisoenzyme(CK-MB)andtroponinT(cTnT)weredetectedbeforeopera-tion ,at 6 ,24 ,72 h after the aorta opening (T0 ,T6 ,T24 ,T72 ) .At the end of CPB ,myocardial biopsy was conducted for detecting the myocardial apoptosis index (AI) .The CPB time ,aortic cross clamp(ACC) time ,postoperative ICU stay ,blood transfusion and post-operative complications were recorded .Results The level of postoperative CK-MB and cTnT in the two groups were significantly increased after the aorta opening ,which at T6 was highest ,followed by a downward trend .The levels of CK-MB and cTnT at vari-ous time points in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group .The main effect of rHuEPO pre-treatment had statistical difference between the two groups (P= 0 .01) .Myocardial AI in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ,the difference showing statistical significance (P<0 .01) .The observation group had no risk leading to obviously increase postoperative Hb ,Hct values and thromboembolism ,but the postoperative blood transfusion amount was reduced .Conclusion rHuEPO pretreatment has the protective effect on myocardium in the patients undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB ,which can reduce myocardial apoptosis and has safe reliability .

To establish the DNA barcode identification method of Uygur Medicine Juniperus sabina. Leaves and fruits were selected randomly from different areas to contrast morphology; Ten samples were amplified by ITS2 se-quence, combining with four ITS sequences of Platycladus orientalis obtained from GenBank, intraspecific and inter-specific variation were compared, K2P and NJ methods were utilized for analysising the relationship. The results show J. sabina cannot be distinguished with its adulterants by morphological characteristics of leaves and fruits; 14 Samples of ITS2 sequence length are 219 bp, the maximum K2P distance are 0.089. J. sabina and its 3 adulterants plant can be distinguished by the DNA barcode ITS2 sequence and NJ tree successfully. Therefore, ITS2 barcode sequence was able to identify J. sabina and its adulterants species, which provides an effective way for the molecular identification of Uygur medicine J. sabina.

To rapidly select potent anti-VSTM1-v2 scFv (single-chain antibody fragment) by construction and screening of a humanized scFv library in which a murine VH-CDR3 library was grafted onto a human scFv framework. A murine VH-CDR3 library was amplified from anti-VSTM1-v2 murine cDNA and grafted on human scFv (VH3-VK1) framework. Anti-VSTM1-v2 scFv templates were selected and enriched through ribosome display, TA-cloned into expression vector, and transformed into BL21 (DE3) for soluble expression of target scFv. A total of 1000 clones were randomly picked. Positive ones were first identified using colony PCR, indirect ELISA, Western blotting and then verified with sequencing and dose response ELISA. At last an anti-VSTM1-v2 humanized scFv with good binding affinity (EC50 = 21.35 nmol x L(-1)) was selected from the humanized library of 10(12) members generated in this study. This scFv antibody might have potential applications. This study provides a new approach for rapid screening of humanized antibodies.
