Diabetic macular edema (DME) is thickening retina with two disc diameter,which is the leading cause of blindness in diabetic retinopathy patients.The initial studies demonstrated that laser treatment of DME prevented further visual deterioration but did not improve visual acuity.Although glucocorticoid slow-release system can extend the time of effective drug concentration,to help glucocorticoid better carry out its biological effect,further studies are needed to warrant their safety due to increasing intraocular pressure and cataract progression.Novel studies identifying the presence of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the eye with DME allowed for the development of an alternative anti-VEGF therapy,which revolutionized the management of DME by not only preventing vision loss,but also improving overall vision.Anti-VEGF therapy is becoming the first-line treatment of DME.However,present treatment modalities including anti-VEGF for DME had limitations,which build on the current understanding of DME pathogenesis.Further in-depth study of the development and outcome of DME is needed to optimize the therapeutic schemes,based on objective and scientific observation of treatment response.Finally we need to fully utilize the public health services and clinical management resources for diabetic patients,to prevent the visual impairment of DME before its occurrence.

Objective To observe the effect and safety of modified Yishen Zhuyang Huoxue Huazhuo Formula for polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) in the TCM pattern of deficiency of spleen and kidney with phlegm-dampness. Methods Totally 123 cases were recruited into this study and randomized to two groups by central random approach, 64 cases in the observation group and 59 cases in the control group. Patients in the observation group were given the modified Yishen Zhuyang Huoxue Huazhuo Formula, while those in the control group were given compound cyproterone acetate tablet, for two treatment courses, three months for one course. The changes of ovarian volume and the number of follicles before and after treatment were observed. Adverse reactions were also evaluated. Results Bilateral ovarian volumes in both groups decreased after treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01), while the control group showed a significant better improvement (P<0.05). The number of follicles in the two groups decreased, but no significant difference were observed between the two groups (P>0.05). The rate of adverse reaction in the observation group was lower than the control group. Conclusion Modified Yishen Zhuyang Huoxue Huazhuo Formula is effective for PCOS patient by reducing the ovarian volume with a low incidence of side effect.

Objective: To improve the diagnosis and treatment level of secretory otitis media (SOM) of children. Method :Clinical information of 80 children with SOM were colletcted and analysed. All of the 80 cases (144 ears)were treated by myringotomy with Grommet insertion. Among them, 30 cases by adenotonsillectomy. 10 cases by palatoplasty. Secretions of 54 ears were carded out by bacterial culture. Result:80 cases were followed up for 6 to 12 mothes. 120 ears of 144 were cured (83％) ,with hearing improved. The tympanograms and hearing threshold of pure tone were found to be normal. The Gram＇s positive and negative germs of bactevial culture were 20.7％ (6/29 samples ) and 24％ (6/25 samples ) respectively. Conclusion: Children with secretory otitis media should be treated as early as posible to improve the patients＇ hearing and develope their speech.

At present,in the opinions of the domestic and foreign scholars,the only hope of long-term survival even cure of hilar cholangiocarcinoma was obtained by radical resection(ie R0 resection).The application of preoperative assessment with appropriate and comprehensive strategies can judge the respectability and Intraoperative safety accurately to the tumor,thereby it can improve the radical resection rate and safety of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma.In this paper,preoperative assessment strategies are reviewed.

Abstract: Relapse and metastasis are the main causes responsible for failure of surgical operation in treating malignant tumors. This article introduces the present development in post-operation treatment of lung cancer, liver cancer and stomach cancer, showing that the synthetic treatment by stages combined with traditional Chinese medicine is the important way to prevent and treat the post-operation relapse and metastasis of tumors, and suggesting the optimized method for treatment.

Comprehensive evaluation for colleges of stomatology is a complex systematic engineering, which is affected by the determination of index and weight. Based on the previous research results,this study establishes a comprehensive evaluation index for colleges of stomatology in China by applying Delphi method,carrying out two-round consultation to 45 experts,which includes 4 first layer indicators and 21 second layer indicators.
