Objective To study the effects of supplying iodine on thyroid autoimmunity in iodine deficiency subjects. Methods The levels and abnormal rates of immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, IgM), complement C 3, and thyroid autoantibodies such as thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb), thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb), thyrotropin receptor antibody (TRAb) and thyroid stimulating antibody(TSAb) were observed in inhabitants in iodine deficiency area before and after oral iodized oil capsules were administered. Results The levels of IgA, IgG and C 3 increased after iodine supplying for three months, the proportions of IgG and C 3 which exceeded upper limit of the normal range reached to 38..9% and 62.0% respectively. The levels of IgA and IgG began to decrease markedly six months after iodine supplying. The levels of TPOAb, TGAb and their positive rates after iodine supplying were all higher than those before administration, and reached the highest level between three to six months after iodine supplement. And 7 cases out of 79 or 64 subjects with 2 kinds of positive autoantibodies were observed 3 or 6 months after iodine supplying respectively. The cases were all adult women with the average age of 27.6 yr, and had no clinical symptoms. The levels of TRAb and TSAb after iodine supplying were much higher than that before iodine supplying. The rate of positive TRAb was increasedmarkedlyandreachedto24.4% twelve months later. Conclusion Iodine supplying for the subjects with iodine deficiency seems to induce immune reaction, increase the levels of autoantibodies, and might develop autoimmune thyroid diseases.

Objective To explore an epicanthoplasty with good effect and small scar. Methods A V shape incision was designed in medial canthus and the two lines: point A is the top point of medial canthus and point A' is the top point of new medial canthus. The length of line AA' is about 4 to 8 mm according to the medial canthus and th incision is Y shape, and then Y-V epicanthoplasty is raised and enlarged. Results From January 2005 to December 2008, 98 cases were treated with this method to eliminate the medial epicanthal fold of the upper eyelid with simple procedures. Scarring of the medial canthal area had not been a problem with this technique because we designed incisions along the eyelashes and skin-mucosal junctions. By raising the point of new medial canthus to physiological position the angle of medial canthus was enlarged to reveal a lacrimal lake. Conclusion This technique is a simple, easy procedures with no visible scar.
