To evaluate changes in quality- of- life of adults with concomitant exotropia before and after surgery.
●METHODS:A retrospective cohort method was used in this research. Sixty - five patients with concomitant exotropia ( ranged from 18 - 30 years) were enrolled. Quality of life was studied with 2 different questionnaires [the Adult Strabismus - 20 ( AS - 20) and the MOS 36 -item Short - Form health survey ( SF - 36 )], which patients completed preoperatively and at 3mo postoperatively.
●RESULTS: With the AS - 20, 3mo after surgery, the mean psychosocial and visual function scores of AS- 20 improved significantly (P<0. 01). Similarly, with the SF-36, the mean score in 7 of 8 areas improved significantly ( P < 0. 01 ), including physiological function, role limitations due to physiological health, general health, vitality, social function, role limitations due to emotional problems, mental health and the overall mean score. However, with respect to bodily pain, no significant improvement was found after surgery(P>0. 05).
● CONCLUSlON: Surgical treatment of concomitant exotropia in adults gives a highly significant improvement in quality - of - life scores. We should pay more attention to the impact of strabismus on quality of life clinically to improve the outcome of the surgery.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the apoptosis effect of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma cell line (DLBCL) SUDHL-4 induced by IL-21 and its related mechanism.
METHODSSUDHL-4 cells were treated with IL-21 at different concentration (1000 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, 1 ng/ml) for 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, respectively. The inhibitory rate of cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay. The cell growth curves were drawn and half inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) values were calculated. The cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry (FCM), the expression of the caspase-9, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, Bid, Bax and c-myc protein in SUDHL-4 cells treated with IL-21 by western blot, the mRNA expression of Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, Bid, Bax, c-myc by Survivin gene with RT-PCR.
RESULTSIL-21 markedly inhibited SUDHL-4 cell growth in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The 48 hIC(50) was 140.9ng/ml; The FCM showed that the apoptosis proportion of SUDHL-4 cells treated with 100 ng/ml of IL-21 apoptosis (AnnexinV-FITC(+) positive cells) gradually increased (48 h: 19.7 ± 2.3%). The protein expression of caspase-9, caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL decreased in a time-dependent manner. The Bax and c-myc protein markedly increased, but the Bid protein level did not change. IL-21 up regulated c-myc and Bax gene expression, however down regulated Bcl-2 and BCL-XL gene expression, but the gene expression of Bid and Survivin hadn't been changed significantly.
CONCLUSIONSIL-21 can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of SUDHL-4 cell. The mechanism may involve in endogenous mitochondrial pathway mediated by the c-myc and the Bcl-2 genes.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) in one-stage surgery for patients with left-sided malignant colorectal obstruction. Methods The clinical data of 97 patients with left-sided colorectal cancer who had been admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from May 2005 to September 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Forty-six patients with left-sided malignant colorectal obstruction were in the test group, after the placement of SEMS, they received one-stage resection and anastomosis; 51 patients with left-sided colorectal cancer (without obstruction) were in the control group, and they received one-stage surgery. The defecation and anal exhaust time, hospital stay and incidence of postoperative complications between the 2 groups were analyzed. All data were analyzed via t test or chi-square test. Results One patient in test group had acute diffuse peritonitis which was induced by intestinal perforation at postoperative day 4, and was treated with radical resection for sigmoid cancer. One-stage surgery was successfully performed on 45 patients, and they were discharged at postoperative day 11-16. One patient died of respiratory infection and heart failure at postoperative day 10. All patients were followed up for 4-48 months. There was no significant difference in defecation and anal exhaust time, hospital stay, incidence of perioperative complications, recurrence, metastasis and survival within follow-up interval between the 2 groups (t=0.164, 1.358, χ~2 = 0.252, 1.200, 0.580, P >0.05). Conclusion SEMS is effective and safe in the treatment of left-sided malignant colorectal obstruction.
