3.Angiogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(10):-
Indices of angiogenesis are increased in synovia from patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and vascu-lar proliferation may contribute to the pathogenesis of synovitis, pan nus growth, bone and cartilage destruction, and osteophyte formation. Many proan giogenic factors are expressed in the synovium in RA. They have been shown to ha ve important effects in the angiogenic process in RA. So the blockade of angioge nesis appears to be a promising avenue for the future treatment of RA.

Objective:To study the effects of whole body vibration(WBV)on resistance fracture after postmenopausal obesity women.Methods:A 12-weeks prospective and randominzed trial of 100 postmenopausal women with body mass index(BMI)≥23.The subjects were exposed to three 10-minutes treaments/week,low-magnitude(2.0m/s)and 30Hz vertical accelerations. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXA)was used to measure bone mineral density(BMD)at the L_2~L_4 and the neck of left femur at baseline after 12weeks.Mobility Evaluation System was measured the mass and force of music in lower limbs and the force of resistance fracture in femoralneck after 12weeks intervention.Results:Ninty-six women completed the 12-weeks trial. BMD of treatment subjects increased 62.96% with a gain 0.65% in the L_2~L_4,whereas,contral group was increase 26.83% with a loss 0.89%.In the femoralneck,the 72.22% increase observed in the vibration group,contral group was increase 19.51%,the benefit were 1.62% and-1.38% in two groups.The left musle force exhibited a increase 83.33%with benefit of 12.14% in treament group and little increase 29.27% with loss of-8.15% in non-vibration group.The resistance fracture of force of femoralneck was significantly increase in the mechanical group,the increase and gain rate were 83.33%,2.65%,19.51% and -1.52%.Conclusion:WBV of low-level and high-frequency may be effecies for inhibiting the decline in BMD after postmenopausal obesity women,in addition,the musle force in lower limbs and the force of resistance fracture were significantly increase.
5.Effect of postural change on intraocular pressure fluctuation in open angle glaucoma patients after trabeculectomy
International Eye Science 2015;(2):301-303
To study the effect of postural change on intraocular pressure ( lOP ) fluctuation in open angle glaucoma patients after trabeculectomy, and to discuss the value of this investigation on prognosis.METHODS:Fifty-one cases (62 eyes) of primary open angle glaucoma were selected as the research object. Perkins ophthalmotonometer was used to test lOP at the time when patient seat ( first seat ) . The patients were asked to lie supine for 25min, detected lOP, and the patients seated again (final seat), sustaining for 15min, detected lOP. According to whether the lOP range was more than 5mmHg, they were divided into high volatility fluctuation group and low volatility fluctuation group. We recorded their visual field progression ( with AGlS score) , HPA staging, in order to evaluate the correlation of lOP range with them. Reviews were made 3mo a time, and lasted for 1a, in order to evaluate the relation between lOP range and AGlS scores.RESULTS: The lOP of first seat was 18. 1+2. 2mmHg. There was no significant difference in the same position (P>0. 05 ). The lOP range was 4. 1 ± 1. 5mmHg. Low volatility fluctuation group was more likely to have low AGlS score and to be early vision HPA ( P<0. 001, P<0. 05 ) . There were significantly positive correlation between lOP range and AGlS (r=0. 412, P<0. 001); With time increasing, the number of patients whose visual field progression was increased, and the lOP was also raised. At any time the two were positively correlated (P<0. 01).CONCLUSlON:Visual field progression is related to the degree of lOP fluctuation in open angle glaucoma patients after trabeculectomy, so we can predict the prognosis of patients simply by detect lOP fluctuation. This is good to adjust the lOP control scheme.
