Objective:To explore the establishment and evaluation method of recurrent infection model of herpes simplex keratitis (HSK).Methods:To determine the optimal duration of the ultraviolet light irradiation, 12 healthy BALB/c mice were randomized into 3 minutes group, 2 minutes and 45 seconds group, and 2 minutes and 30 seconds group based on the duration of the ultraviolet light irradiation according to random number table method, with 4 mice in each group.Another 72 healthy BALB/c mice were randomized into blank control group, model group and recurrence group according to random number table method, with 24 mice in each group.The 72 mice were scratched a # symbol on their right corneas with scalpel.Then the eyes in the blank control group were treated with 5 μl of normal saline solution, while the eyes in the model group and recurrence group were treated with 5 μl of herpes simplex virus I (HSV-1) suspension.All the 72 mice were not intraperitoneally injected with HSV-1 xenogeneic serum antibody.Five weeks after the initial infection, the mice in the recurrence group were irradiated at ultraviolet B-302 nm for the optimal duration.The feasibility of establishing HSK recurrence model induced by this method was evaluated by the score of ocular surface symptoms, and the cytopathic effect (CPE) lesion analysis of Vero cells cultured in corneal wiping fluid from the mice in the model group and recurrence group.The use and care of the animals complied with the Statement of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO). The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (No.PZSHUTCM190222039).Results:The optimal duration of the ultraviolet light irradiation was 2 minutes and 45 seconds.Within one week, HSK syndromes appeared in the mice injected with HSV-1 virus in the model group and recurrence group, and then gradually disappeared after one week.Before inducing recurrence, slit lamp examination was performed, and there was no spontaneous recurrence of HSK in the model group and recurrence group.The mice in the recurrence group relapsed within one week after ultraviolet light irradiation.The symptom scores of ocular surface lesions in the blank control group, model group and recurrence group were 0.333±0.471, 1.500±0.764 and 2.667±0.943 at one day after ultraviolet light irradiation, 0.000±0.000, 0.833±0.373 and 5.167±2.267 at three days after ultraviolet light irradiation, and 0.167±0.373, 1.000±0.577 and 3.000±1.155 at seven days after ultraviolet light irradiation, respectively.The symptom score of ocular surface lesions was higher in the recurrence group than the blank group and the model group at three days after ultraviolet light irradiation, and the differences were statistically significant (both at P<0.05). Morphological changes such as floating and gathering were found in the Vero cells after being cultured in corneal wiping fluid.The positive rate of CPE lesion was 71% (17/24) in the recurrence group, which was significantly higher than 8% (2/24) in the model group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Combining the two indicators, the success rate of recurrence in established models could reach 71%. Conclusions:Ultraviolet light irradiation can successfully induce the recurrence of viral keratitis in HSK mice without injection of neutralizing serum antibody.

Objective:To compare the sedative effect and safety of different doses of dexmedetomidine in the patients undergoing total abdominal hyserectomy. Methods:A total of 120 patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy were randomly divided into four groups, different doses of dexmedetomidine groups(D1 group, D2 group and D3 group)and midazolam group(M group) with 30 pa-tients in each. Dexmedetomidine groups received intravenous pump infusion of dexmedetomidine (0. 5 μg·kg-1 ) 10 minutes before the operation, and then the different dexmedetomidine groups were received continuous infusion of dexmedetomine of different doses:D1 group of 0. 4μg·(kg·h) -1, D2 group with 0. 6μg·(kg·h) -1 and D3 group with 0. 8μg·(kg·h) -1;M group received in-travenous pump infusion of midazolam (0. 06 mg·kg-1) 10 minutes before the operation, and then with 0. 04 mg·(kg·h) -1 con-tinuous infusion. The mean arterial pressure( MAP) , heart rate( HR) , respiratory rate( RR) , oxyhemoglobin saturation( SpO2 ) were recorded at the following time points:the moment of entering the operating room(T0), the block effect of epidural anesthesia was satis-fied (T1),10 min(T2),20 min(T3)and 40 min(T4)after the drug infusion, and the end of the operation(T5), and the duration of the medicine use and the whole operation were recorded as well. The sedation degrees were evaluated with Ramsay scale, and the am-nesic scores, adverse drug reactions and patient satisfaction were recorded after the operation. Results:Compared with that of the other groups, HR of D3 group was obviously lower after T3 (P<0. 05);and after T2, HR was significantly lower than that at T0 (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Compared with the other groups, RR of M group was obviously lower at T3 and T4 (P<0. 05). Compared with those at T0 , the sedative effects of all the groups were much remarkable(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01);and the Ramsay score of D3 group at T3 and T4 was higher than that in D1 group or M group(P<0. 05). There were no obvious adverse reactions in the four groups. Conclusion:The use of dexmedetomidine in the patients undergoing total abdominal hyserectomy might not lead to the risk of respiratory depression as the use of midazolam, while the dose of dexmedetomidine should be less than 0. 8 μg·(kg·h) -1.

Objective To discuss how to determine the operative margin in breast-conserving surgery in patient with early-stage breast cancer. Methods The breast-conserving surgery was performed on 111 patients with early-stage breast cancer who met the indication of breast-conserving. The operative incision was performed on normal breast tissue 1cm from the tumour edge and then the frozen sections of the surgical margin tissue were done to confirm that tumour was completely excised. The individualized therapy was performed according to pathologic examination and clinical stage. All patients were followed up regularly. Results 111 patients with early stage breast cancer received breast-conserving surgery and all had good curative effect except one patient had a local recurrence during the follow-up. Conclusions Operative incision on normal breast tissue 1cm from the tumour edge and frozen section of the surgical margin tissue are two crucial procedures to ensure the success of breast-conserving surgery and increase the life quality of patient with breast cancer.

Background Vancomycin has been increasingly recommended for the management of endophthalmitis,but few research report has been published about the pharmacokinetics of intravitreal vancomycin up to now.It is necessary to have an exact method to measure the concentration of vancomyein in animal eyes after intravitreal injection.Objective This study was to observe and compare the phamacokinetical process of vancomycin in serum,vitreous and aqueous humor between normal and infected rabbit eyes.Methods Seventy-two healthy adult rabbits were randomly divided into normal group and infected group and 36 rabbits for each.The animal models of endophthalmitis were established by intravitreal inoculation of 2000 CFU/ml staphylococcus aureus in the right eyes of rabbits in the infected group.Once endophthalmitis developed,0.1 ml vancomycin ( 10 g/L) solution was injected into the vitreous of every rabbit.The peripheral blood,vitreous and aqueous humor samples were respectively collected in 4 rabbits for each group at 0.5,2,4,6,12,24,48,72 and 84 hours after injection for detection of vancomycin concentration by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC-UV).3p97 software was used to create fit parameters of pharmacokinetics.This experiment followed the Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission (Version 1988).Results The accuracy of HPLC fitted the detecting request of biological specimen.The concentration-time data of vancomycin in normal rabbit aqueous humor and vitreous was subject to two-compartment model.The pharmacokinetic parameters were separately as following:Cmax was 50.16 mg/L and 751.42 mg/L,t1/2was 51.04 hours and 53.21 hours.The concentration-time data of vancomycin in infected rabbit aqueous humor and vitreous was subject to one-compartment model.The pharmacokinetic parameters were separately as following:Cmaxwas 24.94 mg/L and 687.66 mg/L,t1/2was 11.42 hours and 12.91 hours.The concentration of vancomycin in serum was much lower and almost undectable.The concentration of vancomycin in vitreous was gradually reduced as the prolong of time after injection in both normal group and infected group,but a obvious decline after increased level was scen in aqueous humor.Compared with normal group,the concentrations of vancomycin in both vitreous and aqueous humor were reduced at various time points(P＜0.05,P＜0.01 ).Conclusions HPLC is simple,highly sensitive and specific for the pharmacokinetic analysis of vancomycon.These results indicate that pharmacokinetic parameters of vancomycin alter in pathological condition,which is helpful for us to establish the better treatment guidelines for endophthalmitis.
