AIM: To explore the main risk factors related to the incidence of endophthalmitis in patients after cataract surgery in China and to provide evidence for prevention.METHODS: The results of 5 studies on the main risk factors of endophthalmitis in patients after cataract surgery were analyzed by Meta-analysis method.
RESULTS: The pooled odds ratio values and 95% CI of age(≥70), diabetes, vitreous overflow, operative time ( ≥ 10min ), common operating room and control of using time of topical anesthetic were 1. 81(95% CI: 1. 43-1. 69),3. 66 (95% CI: 1. 64 - 8. 16),2. 21 (95% CI: 1. 46 -3. 32),3. 54 (95% CI: 2. 47 - 5. 06),2. 77 (95% CI: 2. 07 -3. 72),2. 09(95% CI: 1. 53-2. 86).
CONCLUSION: The main risk factors of endophthalmitis were the age(≥70), diabetes, vitreous overflow, operative time(≥10min), common operating room and control of using time of topical anesthetic.

The array CGH technique (Array Comparative Genome Hybridization) has been developed to detect chromosomal copy number changes on a genome-wide and/or high-resolution scale. It is mainly used in human genetics and oncology. Generally PCR amplified bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) or cDNAs have been spotted on the arrays as probes. Recently, however, oligonucleotide arrays designed with more flexibility and provide much higher resolution with high sensitivity, have been successfully explored in stead of BAC array CGH and can save considerable time and efforts. There will be a gradual transition from BAC array CGH to oligonucleotide array CGH in the coming years. The combination of oaCGH and other high-through put analysis can lead to discoveries of a host of novel oncogenes, tumor suppressors as well as tumor drug resistance genes. Some major platforms of oaCGH concerning their spatial resolution, optimal probe length, sensitivity, specificity and application in recent years were compared.

To report one case of postoperative reconstruction of facial squamous cell carcinoma by cervicotho-racic flap and temporal flap in our hospital. Clinical symptoms of the patient are facial mass and tumor ulceration.The patient had chronic bronchitis. On admission, the right side of the patient face was found to have a mass of about 6. 5 cm X 5. 0 cm, and the middle is about 2. 5 cm X 2. 5 cm X 1. 0cm ulcer, the neck has no swollen lymphnodes by palpation. After imaging and pathological examination,the patient was diagnosed as right facial squamouscell carcinoma and chronic bronchitis.

Background Fibrin glue has been utilized to adhere the graft during the pterygium excision with conjunctival autografts.Several relevant clinical randomized controlled trial(RCT) and retrospective studies have been published abroad,but the samples for its effectiveness and safety issue of fibrin glue and suture are still underinvestigation.Objective Current study was to quantificationally assess the efficacy and safety of fibrin glue versus sutures in the application of pterygium excision with conjunctival autografts.Methods Based on established search strategy,a computerized literature search was conducted to identify all citations concerning the RCT for effectiveness and safety evaluation of fibrin glue and suture for the graft fixation during the pterygium excision with conjunctival autografts from MEDLINE ( from 2000 to October,2010 ),EMbase ( from 2000 to October,2010 ),Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials ( Issue 4,2010 ),CBMdisc ( 2000 to October 2010 ),CNKI ( 2000 to October 2010 ),and the relevant conference proceedings and references searched by hand was performed as supplement.The included literature was scored with Jadad table.The Cochrane Collaboration' s RevMan 5.0 software was used for the test of heterogeneity or test for overall effect.The effective indexes,such as operative duration,recurrence rate and complication,were evaluated by Meta analysis.Results Six RCTs involving 401 eyes of 377 participants were identified.These literatures were published with English in 2004-2010 from China,New Zealand,Sweden,Israel,Turkey and Malasia and the Jadad scores were 4-5.The quantitatively analysis revealed that fibrin glue appeared to short the operative time compared with suturing method (MD =14.23 ;95％ CI:- 16.18- 12.29;P=0.00) and drop the rate of recurrence ( RR =0.49,95％ CI:0.26 -0.95 ; P =0.03 ).No significant differences were found in the rate of postoperative graft dehiscence or absence (RR =3.41,95 ％ CI:0.85-13.68;P =0.08 ).Conclusions Fibrin glue shows the good effectiveness and easy application during the pterygium excision with conjunctival autografts.Long-term follow-up of multi-central RCTs with a larger number of cases are still needed to support this conclusion.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of coding gene of Sj26, Sj32 and Sj14-3-3 amplified by PCR for chronic Schistosomiasis japonica. Methods The DNA was extracted from sera of 40 patients with chronic Schistosomiasis japonica, the coding gene of Sj26, Sj32 and Sj14-3-3 was amplified by PCR and identified by 1.2% agarose gel electrophoresis. DNA from the sera of 21 patients with Clonorchiasis sinensis, 13 patients with Parogonimiasis westermani and 43 healthy donors was taken as control. Results A total of 399 bp coding gene of Sj14-3-3 was amplified successfully from sera of the patients with chronic Schistosomiasis japonica,but Sj26(676 bp) and Sj32( 1270 bp) coding gene were not obtained. Control groups were all negative. Conclusions Sj14-3-3 coding gene amplified by PCR can be used for genetic diagnosis of chronic schistosomiasis.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of rSj26-Sj32-IgG-ELISA for acute schistosomiasis japonica. Methods Purified rSj26-Sj32 fusion protein and crude Schistosoma japonicum antigen (SjAWA)were used to establish IgG-ELISA to detect serum of patients with acute schistosomiasis, and clonorchiasis sinensis,paragonimiasis westermani, alveolar echinococcosis, cystic echinococcosis, type B hepatitis, lung tuberculosis patients and healthy human serum were used as control. Results The sensitivity and specialty were 90.00%(45/50) ,97.67% (42/43) and 92.00% (46/50),97.67% (42/43) in detection of acute schistosomiasis japonica with rSj26-Sj32and SjAWA, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant(x2 were both 0.0, all P ＞0.05). The serum cross-reaction reactivity was 20.00%(2/10) in patients with alveolar echinococcosis with SjAWA,but no cross-reaction with rSj26-Sj32, the difference was not statistically significant(x2 = 0.5, P ＞ 0.05). The serum cross-reactivity were 14.29% (3/21 ), 7.69% (1/13) and 19.05% (4/21 ), 7.69% (1/13) among patients with clonorchiasis sinensis and paragonimiasis westermani by rSj26-Sj32 and SjAWA, but no cross reaction with type B hepatitis and lung tuberculosis patients, the difference was not statistically significant (x2 were both 0.0, all P ＞ 0.05). The positive predictive value, the negative predictive value and the diagnostic efficiency with acute schistosomiasis japonicum by rSj26-Sj32-IgG-ELISA and SjAWA-IgG-ELISA were 97.83% (45/46),89.36% (42/47),93.55% (87/93)and 97.87% (46/47),91.30% (42/46),94.62% (88/93), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (x2 were both 0.0, all P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion rSj26-Sj32 fusion protein can be used for the immune diagnosis of acute schistosomiasis japonica.
