?AIM:To investigate the causes and characteristics of retinal detachment after vitrectomy.?METHODS: Retrospective analysis of patients in our hospital in recent 4a who underwent primary, standard, three -port pars plana vitrectomy ( PPV ) . Retinal detachment occurred in 24 eyes ( 23 cases ) , 24-67 years old, average 49.0±12.0 years old.There were male in 17 cases, female in 6 cases, 6 right eyes, 18 left eyes.?RESULTS:Eighteen (75%) eyes without any symptoms were found during a routine check, 6 eyes ( 25%) with decreased visual acuity or in front of shadow.It took 1-223d from PPV to retinal detachment, average 40.7 ± 54.2d, of which retinal detachment occurred in 10 (42%) eyes within 1wk, 14 (58%) eyes within 1mo.The direct cause of retinal detachment was new retinal break ( a total of 27 holes ) in 19 eyes, proliferative vitreoretinopathy ( PVR) in 4 eyes, 1 eyes with primary hole not closed.All retinal detachment were ultimately completely reset.?CONCLUSION: The occurrence of new retinal breaks is the main cause of retinal detachment after vitrectomy, attention should be paid to the early postoperative peripheral retinal examination;after a timely surgery, the retina can be reset.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of serum total bilirubin(TBil) and hybrid muscle crea-tine kinase isozyme(CK-MB),and its clinical implication in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods The levels of TBil and CK - MB were measured in 49 neonates with HIE (15 mild cases, 20 moderate cases and 14 serious cases), and 31 normal neonates on the first day and the fourth day after birth. Results The levels of TBil on the first day after birth were significantly higher than those in normal neonates;the levels of TBil were correlated with the severity of HIE(P

The effects of magnolol (Mag) on hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia, hepatic oxidative stress and cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) activity of diabetic rats induced by high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) were studied. After oral administration of Mag (25, 50 and 100 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) for continuous 10 weeks, the blood glucose and lipids (TC, TG and LDL-C) levels, as well as the hepatic CYP2E1 activity and MDA content of diabetic rats, decreased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), whereas the oral glucose tolerance and hepatic antioxidant enzymatic activities (CAT and GSH-Px) of diabetic rats, increased significantly (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The results indicated that Mag was effective against the hepatic oxidative damage, hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia of diabetic rats induced by HFD and STZ, and the inhibition of Mag on hepatic CYP2E1 activity could be an important mechanism of Mag against hepatic insulin resistance and oxidative damage.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of decortication by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in pa﹣tients with tuberculous empyema, and discuss its indications. Methods 60 patients with tuberculous empyema who underwent decortication by VATS for surgical management from December 2010 to December 2015 were included. Under a thoracoscope, we cleaned up the pus, separated adhesions, scraped granulation tissues and caseous necrosis on the inner wall of the abscess cavity, and stripped the thickened fiberboard of the parietal and visceral pleurae. Af﹣ter the procedure, sufficient drainage and antituberculosis therapy were carried out. Results All the patients in this group were operated successfully. All the patients were cured without perioperative death and complications. No re﹣currence of empyema was observed at the follow-up examination from 2 months to 5 years, and suffered pulmonary reexpansions were better. Conclusions The decortication by VATS for tuberculous empyema is safe, effective, mini﹣mally invasive. The imaging manifestations of pleural thickening in 1 cm, no obvious calcification, no serious lesions in the lungs are the indications for the operation.

Objective To investigate the localization and surgical outcome of epileptogenic nidus of post-traumatic epilepsy. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 62 patients with post-traumatic epilepsy treated microsurgicallly from November 2005 to May 2009. There were 48 males and 14 females, at age range from 11 to 48 years old (average 28.8 years old). The epileptogenic nidus in 59 patients was localized based on clinical manifestations, visual electroencephalography (V-EEC) imaging and electrophysiological findings and that in three patients localized by implanted intracranial electrodes. Under electrocorticogram (ECoG) monitoring, we resected cerebral malacia in 36 patients, removed both malacia and epileptogenic nidus in 15, and partially resected cerebral malacia combined with cortex thermocoagulation in 11. Results The follow-up for 6-33 months showed that there were 32 patients at grade Ⅰ , 17 at grade Ⅱ , nine at grade Ⅲ and four at grade Ⅳ according to Engel classification system. Conclusion V-EEG is an important method for pre-operative localization of epileptogenic nidus of post-traumatic epilepsy. Microsurgical management can attain favorable outcome under ECoG monitoring.

Objective To explore the features of transsphenoidal microsurgical treatment of male pro- lactinoma and to evaluate the sexual function before and after transsphenoidal microsurgery.Methods A se- ries of 23 cases male prolactinoma were analysed combined with retrospective and prospective study.9 casese with sexual disfunction had finished the International Index of Erectile Function with 15-item questionnnaire (ⅡEF-15) before and after the surgery.Results 8/10 cases treated with dopaminergic agonist combined with surgery achieved complete remission,while only 4/13 cases achieved complete remission with surgery on- ly(x~2=5.490,P=0.036).Aecoding toⅡEF-15,sexual function improved after surgery in 9 cases(paired- sample) t test,P<0.05).Conclusion Transsphenoidal microsurgical treatment of prolactinoma may im- prove the male sexual functions.Dopaminergic agonist combined transsphenoidal microsurgery may achieve a better outcome.

Aim To investigate protective effects and mechanism of TPG on ischemia_like injury models. Methods Six ischemia models including hypoxia, hypoglucose, oxidant injury, calcium overload, nitric oxide neurotoxicity and excitatory amino acid injury were used to assay the anti_ischemic roles of TPG in cultured primary cortex neurons. Results It was found that TPG possessed obvious protective effects on primary neurons in injury models by the way of morphological examination. Crystal violet staining also indicated that TPG increased number of life neurons in injury models significantly. Couclusions 50~200 ?g?ml-1 TPG protected rat cortex cells from all injury models effectively in vitro.
