Objective To explore the image characteristics and clinical application of the optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with epiretinal membranes of the macular(ERMM). Methods 38 patients, who were diagnosed as or suspected as ERMM, were examined with OCT before and after operation from November, 2002 to October, 2003 in our hospital. Results Macular epiretinal membranes were visible on OCT as high reflective tissues, which were thin or thick, and contiguous to or anterior to the retinal surface. In most fovea, the depth decreased and the thickness increased. ERMM disappeared after operation. Conclusion OCT can display the macular epiretinal membrane and the pathological changes of macular tissues before and after operation. OCT can provide accurate information on the clinical diagnosis and operative efficacy of ERMM.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of anhydrous ethanol and lauromacrogol in the treatment of ovarian endometriosis cyst (OEC), and to provide evidence for more effective use of these two sclerotic drugs.Methods:Thirty-three cysts in 30 patients with OEC, who were admitted to Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province from February 2017 to June 2018, were treated by ultrasound interventional therapy, followed by catheter aspiration, saline cavity cleaning, anhydrous ethanol rinsing and sclerotherapy, and lauromacrogol alcohol 1∶1 mixed solution retained in the capsule (mixed group). The therapeutic effects were observed 6 and 12 months after operation. A total of 30 OEC in 28 cases admitted to the same hospital from 2013 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed after similar treatment steps, but the intracapsular retention fluid was anhydrous ethanol (ethanol group). A total of 28 OEC in 26 patients admitted to the same hospital from 2015 to 2017 were washed with normal saline, then washed with lauromacrogol and retained in the capsule with lauromacrogol (lauromacrogol group). The therapeutic effects of 6 and 12 months after treatment between the three groups were compared.Results:According to the classification of cure, marked effect and inefficacy, there was a weak correlation among the three groups. The mixed group did not tend to be ineffective, while the lauromacrogol group tended to be ineffective 6 and 12 months after treatmen.the difference was statistically significant (adjusted standardized residual >2). According to the total effective (cure+ markedly effective) and ineffective classification, the effective rate of the mixed group was significantly higher than that of the lauromacrogol group ( P<0.016 7). There was no significant difference for the effective rate between the mixed group and the ethanol group, and between the ethanol group and the lauromacrogol group ( P>0.0167). Conclusions:The retention of ethanol-lauromacrogol mixture in the capsule of sclerotic OEC, after pre-rinsing with anhydrous ethanol is helpful to improve the curative effect of OEC and give full play to the therapeutic effect of common sclerosing agents used in ultrasound intervention.

ObjectiveTo identify the differential expressed proteins,and to investigate the relationship between altered expression of annexin A4 during window of implantation [ WOI ( at day-6 after ovulatory day )] in infertile patients with endometriosis and endometrial receptivity.MethodsTwo-dimensional fluorescence differential in-gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and matrix-assist laser desorption ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were used to detect protein expression in endometrial WOI in 10 infertile cases with endometriosis as endometriosis group and 10 infertile cases with tubal factors as control group.The semi-quantitative validation of annexin A4 in the eutopic endometrial tissue during WOI was analyzed by western blot.Results By comparing protein profiles,there were 7 meaningful differential proteins during WOI in infertile patients with endometriosis.One protein with an isoelectric point of 5.84 and relative molecular weight of 36 100 were down regulated 348％ in samples of endometriosis group.It was identified as annexin A4 by mass spectrometry.By western blot,relative intensity of annexin A4 in endometriosis group was 7.2 ±0.9,which was lower than 17.8 ± 2.6 in control group significantly (t =7.654,P =0.002 ).ConclusionLower expresssion of annexin A4 during WOI in infertile patients with endometriosis might be associated with the decrease of endometrial receptivity.

Objective To investigate the medical cost of 72 patients with panic disorder and efficacy of paroxetine(SSRIs)in the treatment.Methods The course,medical cost,types and times of main examination of all 72 patients were reviewed and analyzed.The effect of paroxetine on the patients was studied in terms of anxiety and depression scale.Results The 72 patients had long course,high medical cost and received many unnecessary medical examinations.Paroxerine was effective on patients with panic disorder in light of anxiety and depression scale.Con- clusion Patients with panic disorder had long course and spent much unnecessany money before final diagnosis. Paroxetine was useful and safe in the treatment of panic disorder.

Objective To study the surgical treatment of multilevel arterial occlusion of lower extremities. Methods Single or jumping arterial bypass using grafting and percuteneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA)and stenting combined with infrainguinal revascularization were used for the multilevel arterial occlusion in 25 lower extremities. Results 25 cases showed satisfactory results in 6 months to 3 years follow-up. Postoperatively,the ischemia symptoms of limbs were improved or disappeared,4 toes were amputared because of preoperative dry gangrene,the wounds received eurement in a 2 to 4 months,2 graftings became occluded in 6 months postoperation. There were no procedural or postoperative morbidity or mortality.The cumulative patency rate of grafting was 92%(23/25),The rate of curement was 100%.Conclusion According to the individual principle,it is an effective therapy method to choose single or jumping arterial bypass and PTA and stenting combined with infrainguinal revascularization for high risk patients with multilevel arterial occlusion.

Objective To establish the biological reference interval of procalcitonin(PCT) applicable for children in Chongqing.Methods Serum PCT level were detected in 120 healthy children with age from 0 to 16 years, including 73 cases of male and 47cases of female children, by using by Maglumi2000 plus PCT analysis system.All data was evaluated according to EP28-A3c document to establish the biological reference interval.Results Data of PCT levels were with non-normal distribution, and without statistical difference between children of different ages and genders(P>0.05).The biological reference interval of PCT was less than or equal to 0.038 μg/L.Conclusion It might be important to establish a usefully biological reference interval in different laboratories with relative detection system, especially for children.

Objective To investigate the outcome of damage control sugery in patients with acute superior mesenteric occlusion (ASMO).Methods Seventeen patients with acute superior mesenteric occlusion from June 2008 to May 2012 were reviewed retrospectively.Diagnosis was confirmed by CT and/or DSA.Patients were divided into two groups:seven patients in damage control group (shortening surgical time,bowel exteriorization,temporary abdominal closure) ; ten patients in conventional surgical treatment group.The treatment outcomes of the two groups were compared.The survival of all patients was followed up for 6 months to 5 years at outpatient clinic.Results The overall mortality rate was (5/17) and surgical complications rate was (8/17).Operation time was (97 ±42) min and (236 ± 137) min(t =-4.72,P ＜0.01,P ＜ 0.05) respectively in damage control group and conventional surgical treatment group.Intestine resection length was (114 ± 94) cm and (229 ± 93) cm (t =-2.49,P =0.03,P ＜ 0.05) respectively.Complications rate was (1/7) and (7/10) (Fisher's dxact test P =0.05,P ≤0.05) respectively; mortality was (1/7) and (4/10) (Fisher's dxact test P =0.34,P ＞ 0.05) respectively.Conclusions Although damage control does not significantly reduce mortality,but the rational use of damage control can effectively reduce operation time,shorten intestine resection length and decrease surgical complications.
