OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical application of warfarin in inpatients of our hospital,and provide reference for standardized application in clinic. METHODS:Totally 267 inpatients records used warfarin in our hospital from Jan. 2013 to Jun. 2014 were investigated to retrospectively analyze the indications,dosage,international normalized ratio(INR)monitoring and bleeding complications of warfarin. RESULTS:Warfarin was mainly used for patients with deep vein thrombosis,cerebral infarc-tion,rheumatic heart disease and pulmonary embolism in our hospital;the dosage of inpatients was in the range of 0.625-6.875 mg with average daily dosage of (2.15 ± 0.72) mg;the INR lower than 1.8 accounted for 52.8%,the INR in the range of 1.8-3.0 (reaching the standard) accounted for 31.8% and INR higher than 3.0 accounted for 15.4%;incidence of adverse reactions was 5.6%,mainly subcutaneous blood spots (petechiae) and urine occult blood,and incidence of severe hemorrhage (intracerebral hemorrhage) was 0.7%. CONCLUSIONS:At present,the clinical application of warfarin is still deficient,and qualified rate of INR is still low. It's important to actively carry out medication intervention and clinical pharmaceutical care.

Objective To explore the difference of DNA methylation levels between normal Schwann cells (NSCs) and activated Schwann cells (ASCs) in rats. Methods The adult Wistar rats were received sciatic nerve ligation and fed for 7 days. The ASCs and NSCs were separated from ligated sciatic nerves and brachial plexus respectively. Immunocytochemical staining of S-100 antibody was used to identify the cells. The growth condition of cells was detected by CCK-8 method. Methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-Seq) was applied to filter the differentially methylated regions in ASCs and NSCs. The distribution of differentially methylated genes related with axonal regeneration in chromosome was analyzed, and Gene ontology(GO)and PATHWAY analysis were also conducted. Results High purity of ASCs and NSCs were obtained successfully, which were both positive for S-100 antibody. In the same culture condition, ASCs showed a faster proliferation than that of NSCs. A total of 177 176 differentially methylated regions were found by MeDIP-Seq. Among them, 1 097 were located in the promoter (≤1 kb), 1 136 in the promoter (1-2 kb) and 567 on the CpG. After functional annotation of differentially methylated genes, 214 differentially methylated genes related with axonal regeneration were found in ASCs and NSCs. Compared with NSCs, 191 genes were up-regulated and 23 genes were down-regulated in ASCs. These genes were located on different chromosomes, most of which on chromosome 12 (22 genes) and the least on chromosomes M (2 genes). GO analysis indicated that the differential methylated genes were involved in axon growth, axon formation, axon elongation and axon guidance. The MAPK, cell adhesion molecules, Ras signaling pathway may be related with the differential methylated genes. Conclusion The methylation levels between ASCs and NSCs are significantly different, which are probably related with axon regeneration.

[Objective]To investigate the prognostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT with different metabolic parameters in newly diagnosed limited-disease(LD)small cell lung cancer(SCLC).[Methods]Retrospective analysis was carried out in the patients between June 2005 to December 2016 in our hospital confirmed of LD SCLC by pathology or cytology and comprehensive imaging. Fifty-four patients were recruited. Record the general characteristics of patients,pre-treatment KPS score,smoking status,weight loss,serum LDH,NSE,OS,PFS. All lesions(primary lesions + metastases)were sketched out within one VOI,and the SUVmax, SUVmean and SUVpeak in the VOI were automatically measured and recorded. The automatic measurement was performed by the fixed threshold method. The thresholds of tumor of MTV and TLG were 40% and 50% of SUVmax. The TLG and MTV were identified as TLG40%,TLG50%,MTV40% and MTV50% respectively. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. All the prognostic factors were analyzed by Cox model.[Result]The median SUVmax was 13.92(2.61~43.28),the median of SUVmean was 8.31(1.71~26.85) and the median of SUVpeak was 10.51(1.49 ~ 27.48). The median of TLG40% was 340.22(16.58 ~ 2827.26),the median of TLG50%was 215.645(1.70 ~ 2270.36),the median of MTV40% was 36.71(1.15 ~ 259.47 cm3),the median of MTV50% was 19.65(0.93 ~1900.00)cm3. Univariate and multivariate analysis of metabolic index and prognosis showed that TLG50% was the prognostic factor of OS(P = 0.013),but not of PFS(P > 0.05). The SUVmax,SUVmean and SUVpeak were not the prognostic factors of OS and PFS(P >0.05).[Conclusion]The volume metabolic parameters TLG50%was the independent prognostic factor of the overall survival time of the LD SCLC. The volume metabolic parameters (TLG and MTV) of 18F-FDG PET/CT were related to the prognosis of SCLC ,which could provide the basis for individual chemotherapy.

Objective To observe the postoperative changes of diplopia and eyeball movement disorder in patients with orbital fracture. Methods The clinical data of 62 patients with reconstructive surgeries for orbital fracture were retrorespectively analyzed.The position,range of fracture and incarceration of extraocular muscles were determined by CT scanning.The eyeball movement and diplopia were examined and recorded pre-operation,3,6 and 12 months after operation,respectively. Results Among the 62 cases,23 were simple orbital wall fracture and the other 39 were complex orbital fracture.Eighteen of the patients with simple orbital wall fracture had diplopia and 19 had eyeball movement disorder of Ⅰ degree or Ⅱ degree before operation.Twelve months after operation,5 had diplopia ofⅠ degree or Ⅱ degree,and 5 had eyeball movement disorder of Ⅰ degree.For those with complex orbital fracture,36 had diplopia and 38 had eyeball movement disorder.Twelve months after operation,29 had diplopia(III degree diplopia in 6) and 22 had eye movement disorder.Among the 12 patients with complex orbital fracture who received operation within 3 weeks after trauma, only one had III degree diplopia,while 5 of the 23 with complex orbital fractures repaired 3 months after trauma had III degree diplopia. Conclusion Surgical management can effectively improve diplopia and eyeball movement disorder resulted from orbital fracture.Earlier treatment is superior to later treatment in regard with the effect of surgical intervention.

The stability of the intraocular lens ( IOL ) after cataract surgery is composed of decentration, tilt, rotation, and the change of anterior chamber depth. Its stability is an important factor affecting postoperative visual quality. By analyzing the related factors which influence the stability of intraocular lens, improvements can be identified for future cataract operations. The stability of intraocular lens is influenced by many factors: intraocular structure, the size and the symmetry of intraoperative capsulorhexis, the position of the intraocular lens, the material and design of the intraocular lens, etc. In order to improve the patient's vision, cataract surgeries have been experiencing an evolution. IOL material have also been contributing to such innovations.

? AIM: To investigate the differences between synoptophore and triple prism strabismometry and its possible cause.?METHODS: There were 347 patients with horizontal concomitant strabismus involved, in which 76 patients were esotropia, 37 patients were male while 39 were female, with average age of 13. 27 ± 7. 77 years old. There were 271 patients with exotropia, 131 cases were male while 140 were female, with average age of 15. 43 ± 8. 42 years old. All the patients were examined by synoptophore and prism plus shaded strabismometry in a long distance of 6m. Datas were analyzed by SPSS 17. 0.?RESULTS:In the exotropia patients, the conversions of circular degree(°) and prism degree(△) were:1°=0. 29△ ~1. 78△, which was statistically significant with intermittent strabismus (P=0. 001). While in the esotropia patients, the conversions were:1°=2. 01△ ~2. 15△.?CONCLUSION: The diversity between the two methods is enlarged with the increase of squint angle for exotropia patients. While in esotropia patients, the diversity decreased with the increase of squint angle. Synoptophore equipped with +7. 00D, defects of the triple prism itself and proximal convergence during exam may be the reasons for the diversity.

Objective: To examine the causal relationship between food intake and atherosclerosis using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, so as to provide the reference for the prevention of atherosclerosis. Methods: Data of 16 types of food (grains, vegetables, fruits, meats, etc.) and 4 types of atherosclerosis (coronary atherosclerosis, cerebral atherosclerosis, peripheral atherosclerosis and other atherosclerosis) was collected through IEU OpenGWAS database, with food data comprising approximately 500 000 subjects and 9 851 867 SNPs and atherosclerosis data comprising approximately 200 000 subjects and 16 380 447 SNPs. The causal relationship was analyzed using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method with food as the exposure variable and atherosclerosis as the outcome variable. Sensitivity analysis was performed using funnel plots and leave-one-out. Results: Dried fruit intake was associated with decreased risks of peripheral atherosclerosis (OR=0.195, 95%CI: 0.082-0.466) and other atherosclerosis (OR=0.208, 95%CI: 0.095-0.452), and cheese intake was associated with decreased risk of peripheral atherosclerosis (OR=0.575, 95%CI: 0.380-0.870). Coffee intake was associated with increased risk of coronary atherosclerosis (OR=1.645, 95%CI: 1.099-2.462), and alcohol intake was associated with increased risk of other atherosclerosis (OR=1.269, 95%CI: 1.032-1.561). There was no statistically significant association between 16 types of food and cerebral atherosclerosis. No horizontal pleiotropy was found, no single SNP had significant impact on the overall estimated value, and the funnel plots did not show significant bias. Conclusion Dried fruit and cheese intake are protective factors for atherosclerosis, while coffee and alcohol intake are risk factors for atherosclerosis.

Abstract: Objective　To explore the carrying status of four common deafness genes and mutations on 10 loci in newborns in Hainan, and to analyze the molecular epidemiological characteristics of deafness genes and their loci, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating neonatal deafness gene screening strategy and promoting children's hearing health in Hainan. Methods　Newborns born in Hainan from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected as the research objects. The demographic characteristics of the research objects were collected. At the same time, the plantar blood of newborns was collected, and multiplex PCR amplification and directed hybridization combined with high-throughput sequencing technology were applied to detect 10 mutation loci on 4 common deafness genes. T-test or chi square test was used to process the data. Results　A total of 7 124 newborns were included in the study through informed consent, 219 cases of deafness gene mutation were detected with the detection rate of deafness gene of 3.07%. The detection rates of GJB2, SLC26A4, MT-RNR1 and GJB3 were 1.56% (111/7 124), 1.18% (84/7 124), 0.21% (15/7 124) and 0.11% (8/7 124) respectively. Among the 10 loci of the four genes, the positive detection rate of c.235delC locus of GJB2 was the highest, which was 1.38% (98/7 124), followed by c.919-2A>G of SLC26A4 (0.87%, 62/7 124); 2.63% (113/4 289) of the newborns who passed the preliminary hearing screening still carried the deafness gene; in terms of gene type, the detection rate of GJB2 gene in newborns who failed the hearing screening was higher than that in newborns who passed the hearing screening [2.23% (63/7 124) vs 1.12% (48/7 124)，P<0.01]; in terms of gene loci, the detection rate of c.235delC locus in newborns who failed hearing screening was higher than that in newborns who passed hearing screening [2.09% (59/7 124) vs 0.91% (39/7 124)，P<0.01]. Conclusion　The most common deafness genes types in Hainan were GJB2 and SLC26A4; The most common gene mutation sites were c.235delC and c.919-2A>G; 2.63% of the newborns who passed the preliminary hearing screening still carried the deafness gene, among which the high-risk newborns with MT-RNR1 and GJB3 genes were found. Therefore, hearing screening should be combined with deafness gene screening to improve the detection rate of children at high risk of hearing loss.
