AIM: To understand the epidemiology and related factors of strabismic amblyopia of students of primary school, and to provide guidances for the prevention and control strategy.
METHODS: A total of 600 cases of primary school students of Leshan City, Jiajiang County were given vision, oblique incidence and ocular and other screening. The prevalence rate of poor eyesight of strabismus, amblyopia prevalence rate of different sexes, ages were compared, and the degree of amblyopia and strabismus of children with different types of amblyopia and whether or not had stereoscopic vision were counted.
RESULTS: The prevalence rate of amblyopia and strabismus prevalence rate were respectively 4. 0% and 2.5%;With the growth of all age, low vision of students was significantly decreased, the difference of comparison of low vision rate of each age had statistical significance (P<0. 05), but different ages, strabismus prevalence of different sexes, amblyopia prevalence were compared, the difference had no significant differences ( P>0. 05 );Ametropic amblyopia was the main type, accounting for 55. 6%, and the degree of amblyopia mainly was light, moderate; ametropic amblyopia, most of ametropic amblyopia and strabismus had stereo vision, but there were no stereopsis of most of the strabismic amblyopia and all esotropia.
CONCLUSION:Ametropic is mainly type of amblyopia, the prevalence of relationship between the incidence of strabismic amblyopia of primary school students and sexes is not obvious, but the oblique amblyopia treatment effect, such as the establishment of stereoscopic vision and the age, eye position has a close relationship, should be early discovered, early treatment.

Objective To explore the application of B-mode intra- and post-operative ultrasound in patients with traumatic brain injuries. Methods B-mode intra- and post-operative ultrasound were performed 35 times in 24 patients, including 7 times of intra-operation in 7 patients and 28 times of post-operation in 17 patients. Results During operation epidural hematomas in 3 cases as well as intracranial hematomas in 2 cases, subdural hematomas in 1 case, diffused brain swelling in 1 case were found. After operation epidural hematomas were examined in 4 cases as well as subdural hematomas in 1 case, delayed intracranial hematomas in 6 cases, scattered contusion and laceration of the brain in 12 cases, acute obstructive hydrocephalus in 1 case, and subdural hydroma in 4 cases. Six cases underwent operations again because of delayed hematomas, contusion and laceration of the brain. B-mode ultrasound was compared with CT scan and the total coincidence rate was 85.4%.Conclusions B-mode ultrasound is helpful to examine delayed hematomas and other emergent complications. It may save time and may improve rescue rate and has a good coincidence with CT scan. B-mode ultrasound may be widely used as a routine way in neurotrauma ICU.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of phosphatidylinositol- 3-kinases(PI3K) P85α silence on cell cycle and apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells.
METHODSFour shRNA vectors(shRNA/89, 324, 1073 and 1123) and one negative control vector were designed and stably transfected into SW480 cells. Western blotting was used to determine the expression level of P85α. Flow cytometry was used to determine the PI-labeled cycle after stable transfection. Annexin V-FITC kit was used to determine the apoptosis.
RESULTSWestern blotting analysis showed that the expression level of PI3K P85α protein was significantly decreased in cells transfected with shRNA/324 vector. The inhibition rate was 90%. The group was selected for the following experiments. G1 phase cells in the interference group and the control group were (62.4±2.7)% and (51.2±3.5)%, respectively. S phase cells in the interference group and the control group were (23.9±1.7)% and (34.1±3.4)%, respectively. Apoptosis cells induced by 5-FU of interference group and control group were(11.1±3.7)% and (1.4±0.6)%, respectively. The differences were all significant (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSDepletion of PI3K P85α can significantly induce SW480 cell cycle arrest and sensitize SW480 cells to 5-FU induced apoptosis. PI3K P85α may be a new therapeutic target for colorectal cancer cells.
