1.Current progression and prospect in the targeting therapy of age-related macular degeneration
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(1):1-6
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has become a leading cause of irreversible visual loss in senior population and a serious issue of public health as the aging of society worldwide,especially wet AMD.Wet AMD is characterized by choroidal neovascularization(CNV)with a rapidly developing process andsevere impairment of visual acuity.The effective therapy that can destroy choroidal neovascularization and improve visual acuity for very long time is lack.In the recent 20 years,more attentions focuse on the treatment of choroidal neovascularization.From bench to bedside,the research on targeted treatment of angiogenesis brings the bloom of wet AMD medical therapy.This paper will summarize the update information of wet AMD.
2. Role of soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor in renal diseases
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2018;31(7):768-772
Soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor(suPAR) , a new injury biomarker, is widely used in research of infectious diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases, etc. In recent years, suPAR has been suggested to play an important role in various renal diseases. This review focuses on studies of suPAR in renal diseases and update, which will provide new clues for the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases.

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are fibrous structures released by neutrophils and the formation process is called NETosis. NETs participate in the host innate immunity. Recent research has found that NETs is a double-edged sword. Under normal conditions, the formation of NETs can play a role in clearing pathogens and maintain the host homeostasis. However, when NETs are overproduced or not cleared in time, they can take part in the pathogenesis of many diseases. This article reviewed the formation of NETs, the mechanisms involved in NETosis and the role of NETs in the secretion of multiple cytokines in different diseases.

The Adamkiewicz artery(AKA)is the major blood supply of the spinal cord in the thoracolumbar region.The anterior two thirds of the spinal cord receive blood supply from the AKA and 75% blood supply of the spinal cord comes from the AKA.The AKA diameter is reported to be only 0.8 ~ 1.3 mm in the thoracolumbar region.In order to prevent ischemic injury to the spinal cord,the anatomy of the blood supply of the spinal cord needs to be recognized completely before invasive treatment taken in the descending thoracic and proximal abdominal aorta.Although selective angiography has been recommended,but it is time-consuming and hazardous.Multi-detector row helical CT can provide a simple protocol of scanning and relatively brief postprocessing depicting the Adamkiewicz artery with a high successful rate.Optimizing the flow velocity of contrast medium and the using of scan-triggering CT threshold are the keys of success.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the author groups in 《Chinese Journal of Geriatrics》,in order to provide references for the future construction and development of the author ranks.Methods Bibliometric method was used to analyze the quantity of papers,region distributions,core authors and cooperative rate in 《Chinese Journal of Geriatrics》 from 2009 to 2013.Results The total amount of papers published in 《Chinese Journal of Geriatrics》》 from 2009 to 2013 was 1636,involving 31 provinces,autonomous regions,municipalities and administrative region.Among these,Beijing,Zhejiang,Tianjin and Jiangsu were the 3 top contributing regions,accounting for 54.0 percent (884/1636 papers).The 1636 papers were contributed by 1435 authors (first authors),of whom 1275 authors published only one paper,accounting for 87.7% (1275/1435),and their papers accounted for 77.9% of the total published papers (1275 /1636).27 authors had high yield of 3 or more papers published and deep influence,and they published 95 papers (5.8%).The degree of cooperation was 4.6 (7599 /1636),and the cooperation rate was 93.8% (1534/1636) within the five years.Conclusions 《Chinese Journal of Geriatrics》is quite influential and attractive in the fields of geriatrics,and a good cooperative relationship is displayed between different authors and authors' institutions.
