· AIM: To evaluate the safety of eye anterior tissue when plasmin (Pm) and hyaluronidase (HS) are injected into pigs'vitreouses to induce posterior vitreous detachment(PVD).· METHODS: 15 pigs without ocular diseases were randomly assigned to groups A,B,C (5 in each group). For each pig, one eye was experimental, the other eye was control. The experimental eye received intravitreal injection with enzyme:group A: 50U(0.1mL) HS; group B: 0.5U(0.1mL) Pm; group C: 0.5U(0.05mL) Pm combined with 50U(0.05mL) HS; while the control eye received intravitreal injection with equivalent dose of balanced salt solution (BSS). Postoperative reactions in the eyes were carefully observed by clinical examinations such as slit-lamp microscopy and direct and indirect ophthalmoscopy and measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP). Eyeballs were extirpated 7 days after the operation and histological examination was carried out. The corneas and irises were observed under light microscope (LM). The epithelia of ciliary bodies and lens were studied with transmission electron microscope (TEM).· RESULTS: In all experimental eyes and control eyes of group A, B and C, histological examination showed: under LM ,the corneas and irises of experimental eyes had no histological abnormality in structure; Under TEM, epithelial cells of ciliary bodies and the lens were tightly arrayed with clear cellular boundaries, clear intracellular structure, intact cell membranes, and intact nuclei; There was no significant difference in the clinical examinations and in the change of IOP between preoperation and postoperation, between the experimental group and the control group.· CONCLUSION: With 0.5U Pm and HS 50U injected into pigs' vitreouses to induce PVD, alone or combined with two enzymes, evaluation revealed no evidence of toxicity on the eye anterior tissue. The dosage was proved to be safe for eye anterior tissue.

Objective:To explore the association between the changes in ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) indices and the renal function.Methods:The retrospective cohort study consisted of 837 Chinese individuals from Department of Health Management in the Third Xiangya Hospital.The general information,anthropometry and blood biochemistry were obtained for all subjects from 2008 to 2014,respectively.The 6-year changes of 7 ideal CVH metrics defined by American Heart Association and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were calculated.Linear regression analysis was used to study the association between the changes in the ideal CVH metrics and eGFR.Covariance analysis was used to compare the levels of changes in eGFR stratified by variations of the ideal CVH metrics.Results:After 6 years' follow-up,we did not find significant difference in ideal cardiovascular health indexes between 2014 and 2008 [(3.3±1.4) items vs.(3.2±1.3) items,respectively] (P<0.05).However,the eGFR in 2014 was significantly lower than that in 2008 [(99.8±22.7) mL/(min.1.73 m2)vs (104.3±24.9) mL/(min.1.73 m2),respectively] (P<0.01).After adjusting for age,sex,history of hypertension and diabetes,and history of drug usage (antihypertensive,cholesterol-lowering and blood glucose-lowering medication),the changes in ideal CVH metrics were positively associated with the changes in eGFR (β=0.701,P<0.01).With the improved change in ideal CVH metrics from ≤-2 points,-1 point,0 point,1 point to ≥ 2 points,the magnitude of decline in eGFR was gradually decreased,with significant difference (F=21.71,P<0.01).Conclusion:The changes in ideal CVH metrics are an independent risk factor for changes of eGFR.Positive changes in ideal CVH metrics exert a favorable effect on renal function evolution.

Objective To evaluate the role of by NO in reduction of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR)injury by ginsenoside Rb1 preconditioning in diabetic rats. Methods Forty healthy adult male SD rats weighing 220-280 g were used in this study. Diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin 65 mg/kg and confirmed by fasting blood glucose > 16.7 mmol/L. The animals were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 10each): sham operation group (group S), group IR, ginsenoside Rb1 group (group R) and L-NAME + ginsenoside Rb1 group (group LR). IR was produced by occlusion of the anterior descending branch of left coronary artery (LAD) for 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion in group IR, R and LR. In group S, LAD was exposed but not occluded. In group LR, L-NAME 10 mg/kg was injected iv 25 min before ischemia. In group R and LR, ginsenoside Rb1 40 mg/kg was injected iv 10 min before ischemia. In group S and IR, eaqual volume of normal saline was injected instead of ginsenoside Rb1. The blood sample was taken from carotid artery at 120 min of reperfusion for determination of serum activities of creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Then the animals were sacrificed and myocadial tissues were obtained for determination of infarct size, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression, MDA and NO contents, SOD activity and microscopic examination. Results The serum activities of CK and LDH were significantly increased and the myocardial infarct size was enlarged in group IR, R and LR, and eNOS expression was significantly down-regulated, MDA content was increased, and SOD activity and NO content was significantly decreased in group IR and LR compared with group S ( P < 0.05). The serum activities of CK and LDH, and MDA content were significantly decreased, the myocardial infarct size was reduced, the expression of eNOS was up-regulated and the activity of SOD was increased in group R compared with group IR and LR ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the indices mentioned above between group IR and LR ( P> 0.05). Conclusion Ginsenoside Rb1 preconditioning can attenuate myocardial IR injury in diabetic rats via activation of eNOS, increase in NO production, and inhibition of the lipid peroxidation reaction.
