Abstract?AIM:To investigate the therapeutic effect of Lucentis in the treatment of anterior segment neovascularization ( ASNV ) induced by central retinal vein occlusion ( CRVO) .?METHODS: This was a retrospective case series study for patients with ASNV secondary to CRVO from January 2013 to December 2014 and treated with intravitreal injection of lucentis. Best visual acuity ( BCVA ) , intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , iris examination and gonioscopy, and if necessary, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography, were recorded.The follow-up time was 6-13mo, the average was 9.1 ± 2.9mo.?RESULTS: Eighteen patients ( 18 eyes ) were treated with intravitreal injection of lucentis;15 patients (15 eyes) of the 18 were treated with panretinal photocoagulation;the other 3 patients 3 eyes were not received the photocoagulation because of vitreous opacity. One patient was treated with glaucoma valve implantation.Six patients with only neovascularization and without glaucoma were improved in visual acuity whose intraocular pressure was controlled after combined treatment.Of the patients with neovascular glaucoma ( n=12 ) , after intravitreal injection of lucentis and panretinal photocoagulation, the IOP was controlled in 4 patients (4 eyes);the IOP of another 7 cases reduced but glaucoma drugs were still needed.One patient ( 1 eye ) received glaucoma valve implantation because of bad control on IOP with worse vision after implantation.The rubeosis disappeared in all patients.?CONCLUSION:Intravitreal injection of lucentis can stop neovascularization and help to control IOP.In the early stage without neovascular glaucoma, lucentis has better effects, which means early detection and intervention are important.

Objective To investigate the method for the treatment of haemorrhage of all ventricles.Methods 46 cases were treated by continuous extrinsic drainage through puncture of the lateral ventricle which accumulated more blood combming with substitution of CSF by meams of lumbus puncture per day.Urokinase was injected into ventricle at regular intervals.Results The symptoms were improved.Head CT were reexamined in 41 cases,which showed disappearance of hematocele in ventricle within 4～15 days.Except for 5 cases of death,other cases recovered from the disease.Conclusion The hematocele above and below the duct in ventricle can be eliminated by this method,and the mortality rate can reduced greatly and the quality of survival can improved.

Aim To express hepatitis C virus glycoprotein E (gE) deleting carboxy-terminal 31 amino acids, and detect anti-E antibody in HCV patients using expressed gE. Methods E gene derived from HCV H strain was inserted into baculovirus transfer vector containing a polyhedrin promotor. The recombinant plasmid was cotransfected into insect cell sf9 with a viral expression vector. The expression of gE was analyzed with Western blot, and the cells were used for dectecting antibodies against E1 and E2 in 35 hepatitis C patients by indirect immunofluorescence. Results A series of proteins with different relative molecular masses(Mr) could be detected by Western blot. Results from indirect immunofluorescence staining showed and only 4 patients were anti-E antibody positive gE was located in cytoplasm. Conclusion HCV gE is expressed successfully in insect cells, the study lay the foundation for further developing HCV vaccine.

By using the method of philology, 65 Hui prescriptions for treating cough were been collected to compare Arabic and Chinese names of pennisetum, anemarrhenae, honey, pease, white mustard, perilla and towel gourd stem. The Countif function in Microsoft Excel 2007 was used to count frequency of drugs in the prescriptions and summarize eight common Hui medicine for treating cough, namely sugar, honey, almond, fritillaria, liquorice, orange peel, white mulberry root-bark and lily. According to the commonly used drugs, philological studies and theories of Hui medicines, pathology and therapy of Hui medicines for treating cough were preliminarily inferred. In this study, 35 practical prescriptions and 30 simple and convenient Halal dietary prescriptions were summarized from collected prescriptions according to relevant literatures. On the basis of the long-lasting unique dietary therapy culture developed for Hui people, the simple and practical dietary prescriptions were defined according indications, therapy, prescription name and composition, and eight types of drug-admixed foods were summarized to relieve pains and improve health awareness and quality of life. Meanwhile, this study could also enrich and perfect the prescriptions, provide new ideas for improving health of patients, and lay a certain realistic foundation for further study of Hui medicines.

Objective To analyze the impac factors of serum N?terminal pro?brain natriuretic peptide (NT?proBNP) in patients with renal failure in non?dialysis phase, and to determine the cut?off point of as a diagnostic values in these patients with heart failure (HF). Methods Cross?sectional study was applied. Clinical data of 145 patients (37 cases of CKD4, 89 cases of CKD5, and 19 cases of acute renal injury (AKI) with renal failure in non?dialysis phase were collected. Comparison between groups and lineal regression analysis were utilized to investigate the impact factors of NT?proBNP, and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) to select a better cut?off point of diagnosis in these patients with HF. Results (1) Compared with patients without HF, patients with HF had significantly higher edema, cardiac troponin I, serum phosphorus concentration, and left atrial diameter (LA), while ALB and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were decreased (P<0.05). (2) The NT?proBNP was divided into 4 groups with four points: First groups of 36 cases, NT?proBNP 1 ?862 ng/L, second groups 37 cases, 866?2670 ng/L, third groups 37 cases, 2790?20 000 ng/L, fourth groups 35 cases, 20 900?35 000 ng/L. With the increase of NT?proBNP levels, the occurrence of AKI and CKD4 decreased gradually while the occurrence of CKD and edema were significantly increased (P<0.01). Systolic blood pressure, troponin I, uric acid, serum phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, 24 hours urine protein, LA, interventricular septum thickness (IVS), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPW) level gradually increased. Hb, ALB, calcium, CO2, eGFR, LVEF significantly decreased (P<0.01). The serum NT?proBNP of patients with HF was significantly higher than that of patients without HF (19 150 ng/L vs 1530 ng/L, P<0.01). The serum NT?proBNP of patients with edema was significantly higher than that in patients without edema (5460 ng/L vs 1630 ng/L, P<0.01). (3) Single factor linear regression analysis indicated that higher NT?proBNP was positive correlated with HF, edema, cardiac troponin I, uric acid, serum phosphorus, LA, IVS and LVPW (P<0.05), while negative correlated with Hb, eGFR, ALB, serum calcium, CO2, LVEF (P<0.05), and not correlated with eGFR, uric acid, serum calcium (P>0.05). (4) The best cut?off point of NT?proBNP predicting HF in patients with renal failure in non?dialysis phase was 3805 ng/L, AUC=0.848, 95%CI 0.786?0.910. Sensitivity was 82.4%, specificity 74.5%, positive predictive value 62.1%, negative predictive value 87.3%, positive likelihood ratio 3.2, negative likelihood ratio 0.24. Conclusions The level of NT?proBNP>20 000 ng/L is mainly found in end?stage renal disease patients with HF. HF is a main factor for the increase of NT?proBNP in patients with renal failure in non?dialysis phase. High phosphorus viremia, anemia, and hypoalbuminemia are closely related to NT?proBNP. Therefore NT?proBNP predicting HF should take into account the effects of these confounding factors in these patients.
