Bilingual teaching has become an important teaching method in the Higher Medical Education.The major of Optometry and Ophthalmology in Wenzhou Medical College is an organic integration of the modem western optometry and traditional ophthalmology,and also have the advantage of international education background.In the past twenty years,we have made positive practices and explorations in bilingual teaching.In this paper,we will take The Contact Lens Course ( National recconmentation course and National bilingual demonstration course ) for example to share the useful experiences and results,and to set an important model in spreading bilingual teaching for other clinical medicine disciplines.

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common clinical infectious pathogens, and abused antibiotics enhances its resistance. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the major mutant strains. The generation of biofilm reduces the effects of antibiotics on Staphylococcus aureus, which makes the antibiotic therapy limited. New medicine need to be developed, and TCM as the natural medicine is becoming a hot spot. This article reviewed the research of TCM against MRSA biofilmsin recent years, and provided references for research and development of new medicine.

Objective To investigate choroid thickness at horizontal meridian with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and compare the choroid thickness difference between first visit myopia children with those children who wear orthokeratology lens for more than 1 year.Methods This retrospective study enrolled 68 myopia children with low to moderate myopia (-1.00--6.00 D) who visited our hospital and took choroid images by OCT.The total subjects were divided into 2 groups.The subjects of 34 children in group 1 visited for myopia initially and wear spectacles.The other one group wear orthokeratology lens more than 1 year.Only the data of right eye were analyzed.Scans through the fovea at horizontal meridian were acquired with OCT.Choroid images were detected by custom software with 500 μm intervals up to 3.5 mm around fovea.Choroid thickness (CT) was calc~ated based on the average of the 7 zones.Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate choroid thickness at each zone.ANOVA was used to compare choroid thickness differences between various zones in each group.Paired t test was used to compare choroid thickness difference at the same zone between two groups.Results The mean age of OK lens group was (12.3 ± 1.8) years old,and the spectacles group was (11.8 ± 1.4) years old,there was no statistical difference.From temple to nasal choroid,the mean CT of the orthokeratology lens group were (296.7 ± 61.8) μm (T3),(290.7 ± 58.9) μm (T2),(285.7 ± 57.4) μm (T1),(278.5 ±57.7) μm (M),(262.2 ±57.9) μm (N1),(239.8 ±59.7) μm (N2),(214.7 ±59.0) μm (N3);And the mean CT of the spectacles group were (294.2 ± 45.4) μm (T3),(292.0±44.0) μm (T2),(283.6 ±45.5) μm (T1),(272.0 ±51.6) μm (M),(255.2 ± 56.3) μm (N1),(236.5 ±58.1)μm (N2),(212.8 ±57.7) μm (N3),respectively.The thicknesses were significantly thicker in temple zones than that in nasal zones in each group (all P ＜ 0.05),but the CT was not significantly different between the two groups in each zone (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The choroid thickness has regional deference in myopia children,the thickest is in the temple and the thinnest in the nasal region.There is no significant difference between the children who initially corrected by spectacles and those who wear OK lens more than 1 year.

Objective To explore the clinical therapeutic effects of intravenous infusion of dihiazem in com-bination with metoprolol for treating aortic dissection. Method From June 2005 to January 2008, fourteen patients with aortic dissection (male 8, female 4) in the First Hospital of Yichang,were treated with diltiazen 1～5 μg/(kgrate 30 min,60 min, 120 min,6 h, 1 d and 7 d after treatment were recorded. All data were analyzed using self-matching t test. Results The heart rate reduced significantly 60 min after treatment. The heart rate reduced (21±5) beats/min from the baseline. The total effective rate was 100% .The blood pressure reduced significantly 30min after treatment. The systolic pressure reduced to (126.2±11.1 ) mmHg and diastolic pressure declined to (80.3±8.1) mmHg. No severe cardiac side-effect observed. Conclusions Dihiazem in combination with meto-prolol can reduce heart rate and blood pressure markedly and safely in aortic dissection patients.

This study was aimed to quickly identify Chinese medicine Olibanum.Thermal analysis method was used on the quality analysis of Chinese materia medica (CMM).A total of 25 batches of Olibanum on the market were collected.This study examined three important factors of temperature range,heating rate,powder mesh on the TGA and DTA thermal analysis experiments.And a method of rapid authentication of medicinal materials using TGA and DTA feature maps was built.Methods of the first-order points,connection on thermogravimetric analysis and heat enthalpy calculation were adopted in the quantitative analysis of Olibanum.The results showed that the best condition of TGA and DTA experiment on Olibanum was confirmed.The temperature range is 50-750℃.The heating rate is 20℃· min-1.The powder mesh is 100 mesh.Under these conditions,good quality goods of Olibanum,counterfeit Olibanum and adulterants of Olibanum could be distinguished through the characteristic peak (T1=447 ± 5℃,T2=549 ± 5℃,T3=350 ± 5℃),thermogravimetric analysis (TV-max,△W2+△W3) and thermal enthalpy analysis (△H).It was concluded that the TGA-DTA technology was simple.It was thought to be a rapid,accurate and simple new method for Olibanum identification and quality analysis.

BACKGROUND:Intervertebral disc degeneration is clinically considered to be the main cause of low back pain,but due to the unclear pathogenesis of intervertebral disc degeneration,there is still a lack of effective means to delay the progression of the disease.Single-cell RNA sequencing technology can amplify and sequence mRNA at the single-cell level,reveal the gene expression intensity of a single cell,discover different cell subsets in tissues according to the heterogeneity of cells,study the pathogenesis of intervertebral disc degeneration at the molecular level,and provide a new theoretical basis for its early diagnosis and treatment. OBJECTIVE:To introduce the basic principles of single-cell RNA sequencing technology and review the research progress of single-cell RNA sequencing technology in intervertebral disc degeneration in recent years. METHODS:A computer was used to search PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI and WanFang databases for the literature published from 2012 to 2022.Key words were"single-cell RNA sequencing,intervertebral disc degeneration,sequencing Technology"in Chinese and English.Duplicate,poor-quality and irrelevant articles were excluded;a total of 70 articles were eventually included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)We identified new cell subsets such as homeostatic chondrocytes,hypertrophy chondrocyte-like nucleus pulposus cells and fibrous nucleus pulposus cells,identified the marker genes and transcription factors of these cell subsets,and described the functions,differentiation paths and cell fate of these cell subsets during the development and progression of intervertebral disc degeneration,and proposed the concept of progenitor nucleus pulposus cells.A cell subpopulation with progenitor nucleus pulposus cells properties was identified and its effectiveness in treating intervertebral disc degeneration was verified in mice.(2)Fibro chondrocyte-like annulus fibrosus cells and annulus fibrosus stem cells with both cartilage and fiber properties were identified,and a new type of composite hydrogel was prepared by combining fibrous cartilage inducers silk fibroin and hyaluronic acid in vitro.Experiments in mice demonstrated that this hydrogel could repair both annulus fibrosus tissue and cartilage matrix,and was remarkably effective in the treatment of intervertebral disc degeneration.(3)Regulatory chondrocytes were found in endplate cartilage.Two distinct fates in the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration were analyzed and the differential genes in the two fates were identified.Intercellular communication analysis indicated that regulatory chondrocytes interact with endothelial cells to promote angiogenesis.(4)Immune cells such as macrophages,T cells,myeloid progenitor cells and neutrophils were identified in the degenerated intervertebral disc tissues,demonstrating the existence of immune response during intervertebral disc degeneration.It was found that apolipoprotein induced the polarization of macrophages M1 and M2 subtypes,and this polarization process affected the activity of progenitor nucleus pulposus cells by amplifying the inflammatory response through the MIF signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the influence of the iodine disinfection on nasal bacterial colonization through the transsphenoidal approach. Methods Totally 133 pituitary adenoma patients who underwent transsphenoidal surgery in our department from January to August 2017 were enrolled in this study. Before disinfection,pharyngeal swabs of inferior turbinate root secretions were taken for bacterial culture. After iodine disinfection,pharyngeal swabs were taken again at the same site. Changes in the nasal bacterial spectrum before and after disinfection were compared. Patients were followed up for three months after the surgery,during which any intracranial infection/bacteraemia was recorded,and its correlation with nasal bacteria colonization was analyzed. Results Nasal bacterial colonization was detected in 45 (33.8%) of 133 patients before iodine disinfection and in only 6 cases (4.5%) after iodine disinfection (χ=34.5,P=0.000). Thus,iodine disinfection eliminated 86.7%(39/45) of the colonized bacteria. The most common nasal bacterium was Staphylococcus aureus (24.4%,11/45),followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (24.4%,11/45),and Staphylococcus epidermidis (13.3%,6/45). One patient had high fever and chills 2 days after surgery,but blood culture and cerebrospinal fluid culture showed negative Results . After the administration of third-generation cephalosporins,the symptoms disappeared after two days. Conclusion sThere are colonized bacteria in nasal cavity. Iodine disinfection of nasal cavity can effectively clear most of the nasal bacteria. The possibility of intracranial infection/bacteremia after transsphenoidal approach is low.

Objective : To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatic insulin resistance induced by intermittent hypoxia in rats． Methods : Twenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into control group ( NC group) and intermittent hypoxia group ( CIH group) ．The NC group was placed in a normoxia environment for 12 weeks，and the CIH group was given intermittent hypoxia for 8 weeks，and then returned to normoxia until the 12th week．In both groups，fasting blood glucose (FBG) ，fasting insulin (FINS) ，and liver inositol-requiring enzyme- 1 α(IRE1 α) ，X-box binding protein 1s(XBP1s) ，forkhead box transcription factor O1 (FoxO1) ，activating transcription factor-6(ATF6) ，cAMP-response element binding protein( CREB) ，CREB-regulated transcription coacti- vator-2( CRTC2) ，double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase-like ER kinase ( PERK) ，eukaryotic initiation factor 2 α(eIF2 α) ，protein kinase B ( AKT) ，phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase ( PEPCK) ，glucose-6-phosphat- ase( G6Pase) mRNA were measured at baseline，week 8，and week 12 .
