One patient confirmed as pituitary carcinoma by histopathology was retrospectively analyzed according to the great changes of tumor invasive growth in imaging examine and clinical characters. Clinically,pituitary carcinoma quickly grows,and the growth character of tumor is helpful in the diagnosis. Moreover,the treatment for pituitary carcinoma is different from pituitary adenoma.The rapid progress of pituitary adenoma indicates the possibility of primary carcinoma.More experience should be accumulated for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

[Objective] To learn about the genetic diversity,we studied the five X-chromosomal STR (X-STR) loci in Guangdong Han Nationality Groups.[Methods] The five Loci (DXS6803,DXS981,DXS6809,DXS6789,and DXS7132) were amplified in a pentaplex PCR reaction.PCR products were analyzed using capillary electrophoresis and ABI prism 3100 Genetic Analyzer,with GeneMapper ID 3.1 Analysis Software.[Results] A total of 363 individuals (181 unrelated male and 182 unrelated female) from Guangdong Han population were tested,54 alleles were observed for these loci.Polymorphism information content is 0.6935 ～ 0.8177.Power of discrimination in females was 0.8976 ～ 0.9562.Mean exclusion chance for X-STR in standard trios with daughters was 0.7805 ～ 0.8467.[Conclusion] The five loci in the multiplex system provide high polymorphism information for forensic identification and paternity testing,particularly for difficult paternity deficiency cases.

Objective:To explore the regulatory effect of glutathione S-transferase P1(GSTP1) on the radiosensitivity of mouse Lewis lung cancer (LLC) cells.Methods:GSTP1-shRNA lentivirus and negative control lentivirus were used to respectively infect the LLC cells, and stable transgenic strains were selected. Real-time PCR and Western blot were conducted to quantitatively measure the expression levels of GSTP1 mRNA and protein in the LLC cells to verify the knockdown effect. The cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay was used to detect cell viability after irradiation. The colony formation assay was utilized to assess the cell proliferation ability after irradiation. Flow cytometry was performed to assess the level of cell apoptosis after irradiation. The tumor-bearing mice were established and irradiated to detect the changes in the tumor volume after irradiation. TUNEL staining was employed to detect the level of tumor apoptosis after irradiation. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the number of CD 4+ CD 8+ T cells in the tumor after irradiation. Results:Real-time PCR and Western blot showed that after shRNA lentivirus interference, the expression levels of GSTP1 mRNA and protein were significantly down-regulated. Down-regulation of GSTP1 reduced cell viability and proliferation, and increased the rate of cell apoptosis after irradiation. The tumor volume of the tumor-bearing mice after irradiation in the GSTP1 knockdown group was significantly smaller than that in the NC group, whereas the tumor apoptosis rate was significantly higher and the number of infiltrating CD 4+ CD 8+ T cells in the tumor was remarkably higher compared with those in the control group. Conclusion:Knockdown of GSTP1 can significantly increase the radiosensitivity of LLC cells and enhance the infiltration of lymphocytes in tumor tissues.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of thyroid nodules in diabetic patients and its correlation with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) constitution.Methods:A Total of 213 cases of diabetic patients in Guang’anmen Hospital and Tangshan Hospital from January 2019 to August 2020 were choosen to do the questionnaire, with containly symptom and constitution. The patients were divided into diabetes with thyroid nodules group and diabetes without thyroid nodules group according to whether thyroid nodules were combined. We compared the clinical data characteristics of 2 groups, and used multi-factor logistic regression model to analyze the risk factors of diabetic patients with thyroid nodules and their correlation with TCM constitutions. Results:Diabetes patients aged from 50-80 years old [ OR=2.949, 95% CI (1.266-6.714)], females [ OR=3.736, 95% CI (1.823-1.541)], diabetes duration≥15 years [ OR=1.558, 95% CI (1.623-1.585)], elevated HbA1c [ OR=5.862, 95% CI (1.418-23.629)], elevated VLDL [ OR=2.851, 95% CI (1.597-6.824)], frequent insomnia [ OR=1.970, 95% CI (1.315-3.395)], Qi stagnation [ OR=4.357, 95% CI (2.634-8.377)], blood stasis [ OR=4.420, 95% CI (1.874-15.258)] are more likely to suffer from thyroid nodules ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Diabetic patients aged from 50-80 years old, females, diabetes duration≥15 years, elevated HbA1c, family history of thyroid nodules, frequent insomnia, and mood swings are more likely to develop thyroid nodules; qi stagnation and blood stasis are dangerous constitutions for diabetic patients with thyroid nodules.

Objective: To observe the changes of retinal microstructure in lamellar macular hole (LMH) after vitrectomy. Methods: A retrospective clinical observational study. Forty patients (41 eyes) with LMH and received vitrectomy in Ophthalmology Department of Peking University People’s Hospital from January 2014 to September 2018 were included in this study. Among them, 14 patients (15 eyes) were males and 26 patients (26 eyes) were females, with an average age of 67.8±8.6 years. There were 37 eyes with a lens and 4 eyes with an IOL. There were 29 eyes with LMH of tractional type, 7 eyes of degenerative type, and 5 eyes of mixed type. All patients underwent BCVA and OCT examinations. The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity. The average logMAR BCVA was 0.57±0.27; the mean macular retinal thickness (CRT) was 192.3±108.9 μm, the mean macular thickness (MRT) was 427.5±110.2 μm. Among the 29 eyes of tractional type, there were 17 eyes with retinal cavity, 8 eyes with macular retinoschisis, and 3 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among the 7 eyes of degenerative type, there were 5 eyes with lamellar hole-associated epiretinal proliferation (LHEP), 5 eyes with retinal cavity, and 5 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among the 5 eyes of mixed type, 2 eyes with LHEP, 1 eye with macular epiretinal membrane, and 4 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. The average follow-up time after surgery was 12.8±5.2 months. Among them, 10 eyes were followed up for equal or greater than 24 months. After the surgery, the same equipment and method before the surgery were used for relevant examination. The changes of BCVA, CRT, and MRT before and after surgery were observed. Continuous variables were compared by t test. Results: At the last follow-up, the mean logMAR BCVA was 0.37±0.26. Compared with before surgery, the difference was statistically significant (t=5.98, P<0.01). The mean CRT and MRT were (245.2±90.8) and (347.0±46.7) μm, respectively. Compared with before surgery, the differences were statistically significant (t=-2.49, -5.24; P<0.05, <0.01). CRT and MRT changed greatly within 6 months after surgery, and then tended to be gentle. Among the 3 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone of tractional type before surgery, ellipsoid zone recovered in 2 eyes and partially recovered in 1 eye. Among the 17 eyes with retinal cavity and 8 eyes with macular retinoschisis before surgery, there were still 4 eyes with retinal cavity, but all the retinoschisis were disappeared. Among the 5 eyes with retinal cavity of degenerative type before surgery, there were still 2 eyes with retinal cavity and all the eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among 10 eyes with a follow-up time of equal or greater than 24 months, the macular ganglion cell complex partially atrophied in 6 eyes, and the nerve fiber layer separated in 2 eyes. There was no full-thickness macular hole after surgery. Conclusion For most LMH patients, vitrectomy can effectively improve the visual acuity and promote the recovery of retinal microstructure.

The tetanus has been eliminated in the pregnancy women and newborns in China. However, there is a gap for adult tetanus immunization, and the risk of tetanus infection cannot be ignored. In order to clearly understand the effect of the tetanus to human beings and the current use of tetanus immunological preparation for adult post-exposure prophylaxis, the incidence of the tetanus, the use status of tetanus immunological preparation and recommendations for post-exposure prophylaxis at home and abroad were reviewed and summarized, which may provide academic evidence for post-exposure prophylaxis procedures and use of tetanus immunological preparation.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and multimodal imaging features of eyes with perifoveal exudative vascular anomalous complex (PEVAC).Methods:A retrospective case study. From February 2014 to November 2020, 7 eyes of 7 patients with PEVAC diagnosed by ophthalmology examination in Department of Ophthalmologyof Peking University People's Hospital were included in this study. There were 6 males and 1 female. The age was 60.1±9.1 years. All were monocular. The chief complaints of visual deformation and vision loss were 3 and 1 cases, respectively. All patients underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), fundus color photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA). BCVA examination was performed using the standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, which was converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity. OCT angiography (OCTA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) were performed in 4 and 2 eyes, respectively. Three eyes were treated with intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) combined with local laser photocoagulation. Two eyes were treated with laser photocoagulation alone. The follow-up time was 16.7±19.1 months. During follow-up, relevant examinations were performed with the same equipment and methods as at the initial diagnosis. The multimodal imaging characteristics and treatment response of the affected eyes were observed.Results:The baseline logMAR BCVA was 0.33±0.19 (0.20-0.80). All eyes showed isolated hemangiomatous lesions in the macular fovea with rigid retinal exudation, and 2 adjacent isolated hemangiomatous lesions were observed in 1 eye. FFA and ICGA examination showed that all eyes with macular hemangiomatous lesions showed clear boundary and strong fluorescence in the early stage. No other retinal or choroidal vascular abnormalities were observed. On OCT examination, circular lumen-like structures with strong reflective wall near the fovea were observed in the macular region of all eyes, accompanied by intraretinal cystic lumen. The macular central retinal thickness (CMT) was 326±125 (207-479) μm. In the four eyes examined by OCTA, blood flow signals were observed in the circular lumenoid structures with strong reflective walls adjacent to the fovea. Blood flow signals were observed in the superficial capillary layer (SCP) and deep capillary layer (DCP) of the retina in 3 eyes. SCP showed blood flow signal in 1 eye. In 4 eyes treated with intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs, there was no significant improvement in the intraretinal capsule space after treatment. Subretinal fluid absorption, retinal cystoid edema persisted, and rigid exudation decreased in 1 eye. CMT decreased and BCVA increased in 5 eyes treated with laser photocoagulation or laser photocoagulation alone. At last follow-up, logMAR BCVA was 0.16±0.06 (0.10-0.20) and CMT was 212±34 (154-252) μm. Compared with baseline, the difference of BCVA was statistically significant ( t=2.661, P=0.037). Conclusions:The fundus of PEVAC patients is characterized by solitary or multiple solitary hemangiomatous lesions in the macular fovea. Round lumenoid structures with strong reflective walls, with or without intraretinal cystic lumen, rigid exudate, and subretinal fluid, in which blood flow signals can be seen in OCT.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of the treat-and-extend (TAE) regimen and pro re nata (PRN) regimen of intravitreal conbercept in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) patients.Methods:A non-randomized controlled study was performed.Ninety-one patients (91 eyes) diagnosed with treatment-na?ve PCV from October 2016 to January 2019 at Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital were enrolled.All the patients received the intravitreal injection of 0.5 mg conbercept.After the initial treatment, the patients were divided into 3+ PRN group and 3+ TAE group according to their willingness.The follow-up time was one year.All the eyes underwent visual acuity test with ETDRS chart, optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA). Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central retinal thickness (CRT), maximum retinal thickness (MRT), pigment epithelium detachment (PED) height, the number and area of polypoidal lesions, the area of retinal hemorrhage and the area of branching vascular network (BVN) were recorded.Treatment interval and injection frequencies during the one-year follow-up were compared between the two groups.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by Peking University People's Hospital (No.2020PHB250-01). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient.Results:One-year after treatment, the BCVA improvement in the 3+ PRN group and 3+ TAE group was 5.0(-2.0, 15.0) and 6.0(-1.0, 14.0) letters, respectively, showing no significant difference ( Z=-0.352, P=0.725). No significant differences were found in CRT, MRT and PED height between the two groups ( Z=-0.145, -0.529, -0.985, all at P>0.05). There was no significant difference in polypoidal lesions number, polypoidal lesions area, the number of eyes with different degrees of polyp regression, BVN area and retinal hemorrhage area between the two groups ( Z=-0.502, -0.300, -0.047, -0.265, -1.243, all at P>0.05). After the one-year follow-up, the mean injection frequency of 3+ PRN group was (7.6±0.9) times, which was lower than (8.4±2.0) times of 3+ TAE group, showing a significant difference ( t=2.432, P=0.019). The mean follow-up frequency was (11.3±1.5) times of 3+ PRN group, which was significantly higher than (10.1±1.7) times of 3+ TAE group ( t=3.403, P=0.001). For the 3+ TAE group, 17.1%(6/35) of patients achieved an extension interval of 12 weeks after the first 3 doses, and 48.5%(17/35) of patients achieved an extension interval of 8 weeks or more, with a mean maximum extension interval of (9.5±2.0) weeks.During the follow-up, 10 patients in 3+ PRN group and 8 patients in 3+ TAE group received photodynamic therapy as a rescue treatment. Conclusions:The 3+ PRN and 3+ TAE regimens of intravitreal injection of conbercept combined with photodynamic therapy as a rescue treatment have similar efficacy in visual and anatomical outcomes for PCV patients.3+ TAE regimen has a higher treatment frequency and fewer follow-up visits.
