AlM:To investigate the visual function in myopia and hyperopia amblyopia whose corrected visual acuity have recovered to normal.METHODS: The visual function of children ( 50 cases ) with amblyopia eyes by binocular vision correction after treatment above 0. 9 was checked. The simultaneous perception, fusion range and distance stereopsis were measured. According to the refractive condition of the children who were divided into group A ( myopia, 20 cases ) and group B ( hyperopia, 30 cases ) . The statistically difference of simultaneous perception, fusion function and stereopsis in two groups was analyzed. RESULTS: Fifteen ( 75%) and twenty - six ( 87%) children got the simultaneous perception in group A and group B respectively, and the differences between two groups were not significant (χ2=0. 454,P>0. 05). Group A had six children ( 30%) and group B had only seven children (23%) with the normal aggregative fusion range, two groups did not show any difference (χ2 =0. 565, P>0. 05). Respectively sixteen (80%),and twenty children ( 67%) had the normal divided fusion range in group A and group B, the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 740, P>0. 05). Fifteen (50%) and seven ( 35%) patients acquired the far stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, the recovery rate also did not show any significant difference. Normal distance stereopsis of 50 cases had 22 cases ( 44%) , and normal near stereopsis of 50 cases had 13cases ( 26%) Seven (23%) and 6 (30%) children got the normal near stereoscopic vision in group B and group A respectively, and the recovery rate did not show any significant difference (χ2=0. 195, P>0. 05;χ2=0. 295, P>0. 05).CONCLUSlON:After amblyopia treatment, although the children got the normal visual acuity, the binocular vision still can not completely normal in the short term. Myopia and hyperopia factor will not produce significant effect on binocular vision development.

To explore the binocular disparity information for children with a normal vision based on computer-assisted evaluation system.We examined the random dot zero-order disparity,line zero-order disparity,2nd-order disparity and random dot motion parallax for 97 children with normal vision.And 94 children reached 100″ vision disparity both in random dot zero-order disparity and line zero-order disparity (pass rate of 96.9％) ; all 94 cases passed the 2nd-order disparity and random dot motion parallax.Thus children with a normal vision develop their stereopsis.

Objective To explore whether hepatocellular ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury elicites the apoptosis of hepatocytes or ischemic preconditioning (IP) reduces the apoptosis (AP) of hepatocytes due to IR injury in the rat, and the effect of IP on AP regulating genes (bcl 2、Fas) protein expresssion. Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation (SO) group, IR group and IP group. The latter two groups were futher divided into 3 subgroups respectively and subjected to 30 minutes of ischemia. IP was achieved by ischemia for 5 minutes, followed by reperfusion for 5 minutes before continuous block of the liver influe. The rats were killed after reperfusion for 1.5, 3 and 4.5 hours respectively, then liver tissues were sampled to examine the apoptosis and bcl 2 and Fas proteins. In SO group the rats were killed 3.5 hours after the operation and the liver tissues were sampled. Results Apotosis index of hepotocytes significantly in creased in IR groups compared with that in IP groups (P0.05). Expression of Fas protein was significantly increased in IR group and IP group than that in SO group (P0.05). Conclusions This study shows that: (1) IR injury may activate the apoptosis of hepatocytes by increasing Fas gene expression. (2) IP may decrease the apoptosis of hepatocytes by increasing bcl 2 gene expression.

BACKGROUND:Lithium chloridecan promote the proliferation and osteogenic capacity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels in the necrotic region after avascular necrosis of the femoral head, which has become an issue of concern. OBJECTIVE:To compare the advantages and disadvantages of bone marrow stem cel transplantation combined with lithium chloride in the treatment of rabbit femoral head necrosis. METHODS: Passage 2 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels from 1-week-old New Zealand rabbits were cultured in 0, 5, 10, 20, 40 mmol/L lithium chloride. Forty-eight healthy adult New Zealand rabbits were selected to make femoral head necrosis models in the right femoral head using liquid nitrogen freezing method and then randomized into four groups: model group with no implantation; lithium chloride group given lithium chloride treatment at 3 days after modeling; cel transplantation group given gelatin sponge implantation and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspension injection into the femoral head after modeling; combined group given bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspension injection and lithium chloride treatment. Intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride (45.2 mg/kg) was given daily beginning at the postoperative 3rdday, and the treatment duration was 4 weeks. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Lithium chloride at 10 mmol/L had the maximum effect on the proliferation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels, and if the concentration of lithium chloride was > 10 mmol/L, the promotion role of lithium chloride began to decline. After combined treatment, the morphology of the femoral head was restored a little, with increased bone density and thickened trabecular bone; the level of β-catenin in the femoral head was significantly increased in the combined group compared with the cel transplantation group or the lithium chloride group. These findings show that bone marrow stem cel transplantation combined with lithium chloride treatment can promote the recovery from femoral head necrosis by increasing bone mass of the trabecular bone and bone density of the femoral head in the necrotic region.
