BACKGROUND: Pterygium is associated with local chronic inflammatory responses and chronic stimulation from external factors such as. sunlight and wind dust. Presently. there are various theories concerning the onset mechanism of pterygium, but these theories are not generally accepted.OBJECTIVE: To investigate histopathological chractefistics of pterygium and analyze the mulfipotent stem cell effects on the onset of pterygium DESIGN: An open experiment.SETTING: Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University.MATERIALS: Experiments were performed at the State Key Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Sun Yat-sen University from September 2006 to January 2007. 218 pterygial paraffin specimens following clinical and pathological diagnosis were obtained from Pathology Lab of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sea University.METHODS: Pterygial specimens harvested from clinical operations received morphology, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence under a confocal microscope.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphology of ptorygium and expressions of CD34, vimentin (VIM), smooth muscle acfin (SMA), S- 100 in pterygium.RESULTS: Changes in morphology: Fibroplasia and neovascularization were the main changes in pterygium. Fibroplasia wasdiverse in different regions, and two main phenomena were observed. First, the tissues arranged tightly like the scleral fiber.Secondly, in some loose region, some of spindle-shape, polygonal, asteroid fibroblast-like cells, arranging loosely, could be seen only. No apparent collagen fibers were identified between them. Immunohistochemistry were positive for CD34 in some region where the fibroblast actively proliferated, whereas fibrocytes in mature fibrous tissue were negatively stained.Immunohistochemisu'y was positive for VIM in a large fraction of fibrocytes, vascular endothelial cells, vessel wall and perithelial cells. SMA staining was positive in basophilous small blocks, spindle or irregular cell cluster. Of the 218 cases, 56 cases had smooth muscle. S-100 staining demonstrated that neurofilament protein and adipocytes were positive. Of the 218 cases, 44 cases had adipose tissue, Immunofluorescence showed that proliferative active cells were positive and stained green under a confocal microscope.CONCLUSION: The fibrous tissues in pterygium originate from mesenchymal stem cells, and can differentiate into smooth muscle and adipose tissue.

Objective To investigate the urinary albumin excretion of the diabetes patients and application value in the monitoring of early impairment in kidney. Methods The random urine samples from diabetes patients and controls within three days were collectod. The changes of urinary albumin excretion within day and between days were analyzed. 24-hour urine albumin was used as a standard to evaluate early kidney damage. The correlations between results of random urine albumin at the different time points and different periods were comparod. The sensitivity and specificity of random urine albumin at the different time points and different periods was evaluated and compared to deduce the best diagnostic porformance of the random urine albumin. Results There are greater variations of the levels of urinary albumin of patients with diabetes and control. After the correction with urine creatinine and urine volume the variations can be reduced (CV:49%±23% and 64%±30%). Urinary albumin excretion rate change rhythmically within the 24 h in healthy and diabetes patients. We found the best correlation between overnight ratio of urinary concentrations of albumin and creatinine (ACR) and 24-hour urinary albumin (R2 = 0.976). It was superior to urina sanguinis (R~2 = 0.900), postprandial urine (R~2 = 0.584) and random urine (R~2 =0.791). When 24 h urinary albumin was taken as the standard, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed there was significant difference between male and female(male 12.8 μg/mg urine creatinine vs female 27.0 μg/mg urine creatinine),and the the cut-off value of ACR was 27.7μg/mg urine creatinine. When the smallest available negative likelihood ratio (0.011) and the greatest positive likelihood ratio (481.000) were obtained,the concentration of 13.0 μg/mg creatinine and 87.4 μg/mg creatinine were set as the cut-off value of ACR. Conclusions The correction with urinary creatinine can reduce the variation between-days compared with urine volume, but still can not completely eliminate the variability. The ACR of overnight urine has the best correlation with the 24 h urinary albumin and can replace 24 h urinary albumin. Random urine as the most convenient collecting urine samples can also replace 24-hour urinary albumin, but the gender discrepancy need to be considered. When the concentration of 13.0 μg/mg and 87.4 μg/mg was set as a random ACR exclusion value and the confirmative value, it can basically rule out and confirm the existence of microalbuminuria.
