The hemodynamics of ocular artery (OA) and central retinal artery(CRA)in normal persons and patients (102 eyes, respectively)with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) were studied with color Doppler image technique. The results showed that average values of peak systolic flow velocity (Vmax), the end-diastolic flow velocity (Vmin) and the mean flow velocity (Vmeau)for the OA and CRA in glau-comatous patients we^e much lower than that in normal persons. But the mean resistance index (RI) was higher than that in normal persons. The linear regression analysis presented that there was a positive correlation of Vmin between the OA and CRA (r = 0.3278, p

Objective:To evaluate the results of treating Perthes disease by pelvic osteotomy and internal fixation with self-reinforced absorbable (SR-PLLA) rods. Methods:50 cases of Perthes disease(53 hips) were involved. According to Herring classification, there were 16 hips of type B ?5 hips of type B/C and 32 hips of type C. All patients were treated by pelvic osteotomy(Chiari)and internal fixation with self-reinforced absorbable (SR-PLLA) rods. Results:All cases were followed up for 2 months to 18 months, with an average of 6 months. All cutting bone was healed. There was no bacterial wound infection or sterile inflammatory foreign-body reaction. Failure of fixation was only occurred in one case. Bone union was seen 6 weeks to 12 weeks, with an average of 8 weeks. All patients restored normal hip joint function and had no pain. Conclusion:This operative technique is simple and can achieve reliable fixation. It can improve bone healing with a reduced healing time and avoid secondary a removal operation. This surgical procedure is an effective way to treat cutting pelvis in Perthes disease.

The adverse effects on the ocular surface caused by long-term antiglaucomatous medications or filtering surgery have been documented by many researchers.However,in our clinical work emphasis on this issue is far from enough.Both antiglaucomatous drugs and filtering surgery can cause tear film dysfunction and conjunctival or corneal epithelium damage,which is the main cause of glaucomatous patients'ocular uncomfortable complaints.Early diagnosis and prompt management of the ocular surface dysfunction is of great importance for us to improve patients' local tolerance and decrease their ocular uncomfortable symptoms.

Objective:To compare characters of urethral healing after different surgical procedures to provide theoretical support for preventing and curing urethral scaring stricture after hypospadias repair.Methods:Hypospadiac animal model was established and three surgical procedures were adopted to repair urethra.The dynamic changes of urethral healing and scar were observed,the expressions of ?-SMactin and TGF-?1 were examined.Results:Mathieu and Onlay island flap(Onlay) had notable collagenous proliferation,which was significantly stronger than that of Tubularized Incised Plate urethroplasty(TIPU)(P

Objective:To investigate whether plasma lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A_(2)(Lp-PLA_(2)) activity correlates with severity and stability of coronary atherosclerosis and other established cardiovascular risk factors.Methods: Coronary angiography(CAG) was performed in 180 hospitalized patients who were suspected as having coronary heart disease(CHD).The severity of pathological changes of the coronary artery was assessed by the number of diseased coronary branches and Gensini′s score.According to the results of CAG,the 180 patients were divided into 2 groups: CHD group(n=112) and non-CHD group(n=68).The CHD patients were further divided into subgroups according to the clinical types,the number of diseased coronary branches and Gensini′s score.Lp-PLA_(2) activity,white blood cell(WBC) count,high sensitive C reactive protein(hsCRP),lipids,blood pressure and body mass index were measured.The age,sex and prior medical histories including hypertension,diabetes mellitus and smoking status were obtained before CAG in all patients.Lp-PLA_(2),WBC count and hsCRP were compared statistically between the subgroups,and correlation coefficients of Lp-PLA_(2) activity with WBC count,hsCRP and other conventional risk factors for CHD were calculated.Results: Plasma Lp-PLA_(2) activity in CHD patients was significantly higher than that in controls(P

Quantum dots( QDs) as a new type of nanostructured luminescent materials have been widely used in biology, materials science, and physical optics. QD-based biosensors can rapidly and accurately detect biological macromolecules or inorganic molecules both in vivo and in vitro. The surface of QDs, prior to their biological detection applications, needed to be modified to enhance their fluorescence properties and lower their biological toxicity. Currently, the surface modification technologies mainly include polymer modification, thiol compounds modification, mercapto propionic acid compounds modification and organic groups modification. Various biosensors can be developed by adopting different modification techniques, which have been adopted to locate and track a variety of biological molecules in vivo. Although a large number of literatures have reported the biological applications of QD-based biosensors, rare systematic reviews of surface modification technologies on QDs have been witnessed. In this paper, we reviewed the surface modification technologies of QDs in biosensors and their medical applications.

The doctor-patient relationship is always the focus in the society. The relationship seems more complex and sensitive in the pediatric surgical ward because its patients are kids. However, the pediatric surgical residents' ability of doctor-patient communication is lack of systemic and norma-tive training, which is not good for the mutual understanding between doctors and patients. This study explores how to enhance the residents' doctor-patient communication skills from the perspective of awareness, professional knowledge and some specific skills. In the meantime, it discusses the need to train the teachers and set up a regular examination-assessment system.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of syncope by analyzing its etiology.Methods Ninety-six syncope patients admitted to our hospital from 2014-01-01 to 2016-12-21were included in this study.The etiology of syncope was analyzed.Results Of the 96 syncope patients included in this study,50 (52.1 ％) were diagnosed with nerve-mediated reflex syncope,31(32.3％) with orthostatic hypotensive syncope,10 (10.4％) with cardiogenic syncope due to arrhythmia,coronary atherosclerotic cardiopathy or pulmonary embolism,5 (5.2％) with other diseases.Conclusion Nerve-mediated reflex,orthostatic hypotension and cardiogenic factors are the causes of syncope.Attention should thus be paid to syncope caused by nervous system diseases.Clarification of the risk factors for syncope helps to reduce its potential risk.

Biochemistry is an essential course for medical students,which updates fast,develops quickly and has strong characteristic of experimentation.Opening experiment is a new open type experimental teaching mode and students are regarded as main body.Opening experiment is helpful to stimulating activeness and cultivating innovative consciousness of students as an effective supplement for traditional experimental teaching.This kind of teaching mode is in conformance with experimental teaching reform in university and is an effective way of cultivating medical science talented men.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second largest cause of cancer deaths worldwide.TLRs signal transduction pathways are related to the progress of HCC.As an innate immune recognition receptors on the surface of the cell,TLRs are involved in the ligand-mediated activation of various cells and the secretion of cytokines in liver through signal transduction,which is part of the cause and development of HCC.A better understanding of TLRs and these signaling pathways in the liver will help us understand the mechanism of hepatocarcinogenesis and provide a new therapeutic target for HCC.
