Diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) is one of the common and serious complications of diabetes, which also the main causes of visual impairment in patients with diabetes, and its incidence has been increasing. With the in- depth study of the pathogenesis of DR, through the control of risk factors including blood glucose, blood pressure and lipid, as well as the application of a variety of drugs, the prevention and cure of DR achieved a certain effect. ln this paper, we make a review of the present status and progress in recent years on the DR control risk factors and drug intervention.

Objective To assess the efficacy and pathological change of fertility-sparing treatment with progestin for endometrial carcinoma (EC) of stage Ⅰ a and complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) and to observe the prognosis of the treatment.Methods Nine EC patients of stage Ⅰ a and 21 CAH patients aged under 40 years who desired childbearing and retaining their fertility were enrolled into this study.All patients were given a daily oral high-dose of progestin with duration of treatment ranging from 6 to 9 months.Diagnostic curettage was performed every 3 months as a modality for seeing the histologic change of neoplastic tissues and endometrial tissue.A careful and long-term follow-up is necessary for patients with complete response (CR).Results During the first period of fertility-sparing management,according to histologic change,5 EC patients and 18 CAH patients showed CR with no evidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma or hyperplasia,2 EC patients and 2 CAH patients showed partial response with a regression to complex or simple hyperplasia without atypia,2 EC patients and 1 CAH patient showed stable disease or progressive disease.Accordingly,a total of 26 patients showed CR (26 of 30 patients).The median time to CR was 6 months (range,3 to 21 months) of progestin treatment.The median follow-up time was 55.5 months (range,24 to 104 months) and all patients were alive.During follow-up,among the 26 patients with CR,3 of 6 EC patients achieved CR recurred disease after a median time interval of 10 months (range,6 to 51 months),7 of 20 CAH patients achieved CR had recurrent disease after a median time interval of 12 months (range,6 to 55 months).Four of 7 CAH with recurrent disease achieved CR to progestin retreatment.Eight of 26 patients achieved CR continued a further 3 or 6 months of consolidation therapy,3 of them had recurrent disease,the remaining 18 stopped progesterone treatment after CR and 7 patients had recurrent disease; there was no significant statistical difference between the two groups (P=1.000).EC patients succeeded in 4 pregnancies,CAH patients succeeded in 10 pregnancies,they gave birth to 16 healthy babies in all.Conclusions EC of stage Ⅰ a and CAH had slow progression of symptoms.Progestin treatment in EC of stage Ⅰ a and CAH patients was effective.A careful and long-term follow-up is required because of the substantial high rate of recurrence.Progestin re-treatment in most patients with recurrent endometrial cancer is effective and safe.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the effect of finasteride on bone mineral density in elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods 120 elderly patients with BPH were retrospective studied in our hospital,and grouped into the finasteride group and the control group according to taking finasteride or not.Bone mineral density in all patients was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and 12-15 months after follow-up,and peripheral blood was collected for measuring serum biochemical indicators including calcium,phosphorus,creatinine and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).Results There were no significant differences in indexes of bone mineral density,serum calcium,phosphorus,creatinine and ALP between the finasteride group and the control group.Conclusions Finasteride may not increase the risk of osteoporosis in elderly patients with BPH.

Objective To investigate the morphological changes of bone marrow megakaryocytes in patients with bacterial and fungal infection.Methods Totally 76 patients with microorganism infection from the Second Affiliated Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2008 to August 2009 were enrolled,including 56 bacteria infected patients and 20 fungal infected patients.All patients received bone marrow examinations,and were positive in microorganism culture.Thirty subjects without infection,hematological disease and other severe diseases were randomly selected as controls.The number and function of megakaryocytes were examined retrospectively, and the size, nuclear lobulation, and vacuolar degeneration of megakaryocytes were quantitative analyzed and compared among the groups.Results The size,nuclear lobulation,vacuolar degeneration,and Yat nuclear of megakaryocytes in bacterial infected group were 2.20 ±0.21,2.11 ±0.23,0.51 ±0.11 and 0.74 ±0.11 respectively,those in fungal infected group were 2.21 ±0.16,2.10 ±0.19,0.52 ±0.10 and 0.79 ±0.10 respectively;while those in control group were 1.40 ±0.10,1.36 ±0.12,0.28 ±0.06 and 0.54 ±0.09 respectively.The differences between bacterial infected group and control were of statistical significance(t values were 14.52,12.19,9.33 and 6.61 respectively,P ＜ 0.05),and the differences between fungal infected group and control were of statistical significance(t values were 16.27,12.34,7.85 and 6.49 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The size,nuclear lobulation,and vacuoles of megakaryocytes in gram-negative(G-)bacteria group were 2.29 ±0.20,2.22 ±0.26 and 0.57 ±0.10,while those in the gram-positive(G+)bacteria group were 2.13 ±0.20,2.04 ±0.18 and 0.46 ±0.09,and the differences were also significant(t values were 2.07,3.03and 3.56 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The production of platelet by megakaryocytes in bacterial infected group,in fungal infected and the control were 31.4 ±7.6,32.4 ±6.4 and 41.3 ±5.5,and the differences between bacterial infected group and control,fungal infected group and control were significant(t values were 4.78and 3.98 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The production of platelet in G-bacteria group was 28.0 ± 6.7,while that in G + bacteria group was 34.4 ± 7.2,and the difference was also of statistical significance(t = 2.41,P ＜0.05). Conclusion Bacterial infected patients have increased megakaryocytes cell body,nuclear lobulation,obvious vacuolar degeneration,Yat nuclear and decreased platelet production function,which are more significant in G- bacteria infected group.
