Objective To investigate the clinical effect of ultrasound-guided sclerosing therapy with injection of lauromacrogol for the treatment of pelvic encapsulated hydrops. Methods A total of 40 patients with pelvic encapsulated hydrops were enrolled in this study. Under ultrasonographic guidance , puncture aspiration of pelvic encapsulated hydrops was carried out in all patients , which was followed by lauromacrogol injection of appropriate dose, and the drainage catheter was kept in the hydrops cavity. The clinical results were evaluated at one, 2 and 3 months after the treatment. Results The success rate of puncturing was 100%. Six months after the treatment, the complete cure was obtained in 86.4%of patients, and the effective rate was 100%. Conclusion For the treatment of pelvic encapsulated hydrops , ultrasound-guided sclerosing therapy with injection of lauromacrogol is effective and safe with instant result and lower recurrence rate. Therefore, this technique should be recommended in clinical practice.

?Color vision has been an important part of the human visual function.It is determined by the phytochrome of cone.In many clinical cases of ocular fundus diseases, patients had color vision loss, which shows that color visions tests is necessary and meaningful.At present, doctors have not paid attention to it and adopt the tests rarely. The article summarizes the tests of color in common use and applications on the diagnosis and treatment for common ocular fundus diseases to be a theory basis.

Objective:To investigate the expression of Toll-like receptors(TLRs)signaling pathway in chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS)with nasal polyps.Method:Gene microarray analysis was used to detect the expression of TLRs signaling pathway in CRS with nasal polyps.Result:Of 19 differentially expressed(two-fold changes),4genes were upregulated and 15 genes were downregulated.Conclusion:The differentially expressed genes in TLRs signaling pathway may exert its effect in the pathogenesis of CRS.In addition,the roles of TLR9 and its agonists need further study.

CardiovascuIar disease is the number one cause for morbidity and mortaIity worIdwide. Possi-biIities for new therapies in the emerging fieId of cardiac signaIIing prompted extensive research on myocardiaI re-modeIIing over the past decades. In this review,we as-sembIe an overview of the recent findings on the muIti-functionaI enzyme,p21-activated kinase 1( Pak1),a member of a serine/ threonine protein kinase famiIy in the heart,particuIarIy its cardiac protective effects. We pres-ent a modeI for Pak1 signaIing that provides a mecha-nism for specificaIIy affecting cardiac ceIIuIar processes. We discuss its cardiac protective effects such as anti-hy-pertrophy,anti-ischaemic injury and roIe in maintaining ventricuIar Ca2+ homeostasis and eIectrophysioIogicaI stabiIity under physioIogicaI, β-adrenergic and hyper-trophic stress conditions.We aIso discuss the potentiaIs of Pak1 activation by naturaIIy occurring sphingosine and its anaIogues FTY720,and bioactive peptides designed to diminish Pak1 auto-inhibition as noveI thera-peutics for major cardiovascuIar diseases.

AIM:To investigate the expression and the significance of VEGF-C/D in rat cornea after alkali burning as well as the role of lymphangiogenesis in the high-risk corneal transplantation rejection.
●METHODS:The model of alkali burn corneal was made. Different times corneas were taken to electron microscope for vascularization, and examined the expression of VEGF-C/D and VEGFR-3 in l, 3, 5, 7, 14, 28d. The other rat cornea after alkali burn were divided into four parts to penetrate keratoplasty, containing only blood vessels in the cornea ( group A ) , angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis ( group B ) , lymphangiogenesis degenerating period ( group C ) , angiogenesis degenerating period ( group D ) . ln addition, there are also normal groups ( group N ) to compare the Rl values and survival time of corneal graft.
●RESULTS: Electron microscopy showed that, when the first 7d rat cornea appeared neovascularization after alkali burn, but not lymphangiogenesis. The occurrence of new blood vessels and lymphatic in 2wk. There were no obvious lymphangiogenesis in 5wk and the angiogenesis gradually subside in 8 wk. The expression of VEGF-C/D and VEGFR-3 in the corneas of rats were up-regulated in the third days after the injury, and reached its peaks at 5d. The average survival time of group N, A, B, C, D were (14.25±0.62)d, (9.35±1.02)d, (5.06±1.13)d, (8.71±0.83) d, (9. 44±1. 05)d after transplant cornea. Compared to the rest of the group, group B plant average survival time significantly shortened (P<0. 05), while compared with group B, the survival time of A, C, D groups were significantly longer (P<0. 05).
● CONCLUSION: VEGF - C/D and VEGFR - 3 are expressed significantly after corneal alkali burn. New lymphatic vessels can accelerate high - risk corneal transplantation immune rejection.

Objective To analyze the impact of age on the detection rate,grade and stage of prostate cancer in patients with prostate specific antigen (PSA) 4-10 μg/L.Methods A retrospective analysis was made in 426 patients with PSA 4-10 μg/L who underwent prostate biopsy and divided into 4 group according to their age less than 60 (n=33),60-69 (n=163),70-79 (n=202) and more than 80 (n=28) to compare the correlation between age and the cancer detective rate.Among them,115 patients,diagnosed as prostate cancer,were further divided into 4 group according to their age less than 60 (n =3),60-69 (n=32),70-79 (n=69) and more than 80 (n=11).The correlation between age and the Gleason score or clinical stage was analyzed in 115 prostate cancer patients.Results The detective rate in each group was 9.1％ (3/33),19.6％ (32/163),34.2％ (69/202) and 39.3％ (11/28).There was significant difference in prostate cancer detective rate among those groups.The cancer detective rate became significantly higher as the age increased (P＜0.001).In the patients with prostate cancer,the number of patients with Gleason score more than 7 in each group was 1 (50.0％),11 (37.9％),30 (44.8％),7 (63.6％).No significant correlation was found between age and grade (P=0.292 4).And each group had cases with localized prostate cancer was 2 (100.0％),14 (60.9％),39 (78.0％),4 (66.7％),with locally advanced prostate cancer 0,5 (21.7％),7 (14.0％),1 (16.7％),with metastatic prostate cancer 0,4 (17.4％),4(8.0％),1 (16.7％).No significant difference was found between each group and clinical stage (P =0.101 6,P=0.285 2,P=0.349 1).Conclusions The prostate cancer detective rate significantly increases with the age increasing.There is no significant correlation between age and grade or clinical stage in the patients with PSA 4-10 μg/L.
