AIM: To compare the effect of trabeculectomy and combined surgery of glaucoma and cataract treating primary angle-closure glaucoma ( PACG) with cataract. METHODS: It was retrospectively reviewed that 80 patients (90 eyes) with PACG and cataract were treated in our hospital from January 2012 to October 2013. They were divided into observation group ( combined surgery of glaucoma and cataract group, 45 eyes ) and control group ( trabeculectomy group, 45 eyes) . Postoperatively, all the patients were followed up for 6mo. Intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , visual acuity and complications were observed.
RESULTS: Compared to preoperative IOP, postoperative IOP was significantly reduced in both observation group and control group, while IOP was reduced more greatly in observation group (P=0. 003). Visual acuity was significantly improved in observation group, while it was not improved significantly in control group ( P = 0. 036 ). Compared to control group, complications such as shallow anterior chamber with hypotony, macular edema and anterior chamber inflammation were less observed in observation group, with significant statistical difference ( P=0. 002, P=0. 003, P=0. 001).
CONCLUSION: For patients with PACG and cataract, combined surgery of glaucoma and cataract is an effective surgery that can improve visual acuity and reduce IOP with fewer complications.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship between salivary proteome and dental caries and to promote the biomarker studies of dental caries susceptibility by comparing the salivary proteome of caries-active children and caries-free children with electrospray ionization ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS).

METHODSTen caries-active children and ten caries-free children were sampled. The salivary proteome of the two groups was studied, and the differential protein between the two groups was analyzed by ESI-MS/MS after sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, filter-aided sample preparation, and liquid chromatography.

RESULTSThe concentration of salivary protein was higher in the caries-active group than in the caries-free group. The polypeptide counts of thecaries-active and caries-free groups were 602 and 481, which belonged to 286 and 227 proteins, respectively. The differential polypeptide count of the two groups was 361, and the differential protein count was 118. The detected proteins included matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9), mucin-7 (MUC7), lactotransferrin (LTF), carbonic anhydrase 6 (CA6), azurocidin (AZU), and cold agglutinin.

CONCLUSIONThe total salivary protein was higher in the caries-active group than in the caries-free group. The preliminary detection of differential proteins (MMP9, MUC7, LTF, CA6, AZU, and cold agglutinin) may lay some foundation for biomarker research of dental caries susceptibility.

To observe the preventive effect of polydatin on diabetic myocardial hypertrophy in mice and discuss its and mechanism. The diabetic model was induced with low dose STZ (40 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1) x 5 d, ip) for five days in mice. The myocardial hypertrophy was determined by hypertrophy indexes (LVHI, left ventricular/right ventricle and septum), left ventricular/body weight (LV/BW), the histological examination and the mRNA expression of atrial natriuretic factor(ANF). The fast blood glucose(FBG), serum insulin and plasma hemoglobin A1c ( HbA1c) levels were detected, and then HOMA insulin resistance index ( HOMA. IR) was calculated. The mRNA and protein expressions were measured by qRT-PCR and western blotting, respectively. According to the results, the FBG of the model group exceeded 11.1 mmol x L(-1), with notable decrease in BW and significant increase in insulin, HbA1c and HOME. IR, suggesting the successful establishment and stability of the diabetic model. The increases in LVHI, LV/BW, cell surface and ANF mRNA indicated a myocardial hypertrophy in diabetic mice. Meanwhile, the model group showed decrease in mRNA and protein expressions of PPARβ and significant increase in NF-κB p65, COX-2 and iNOS expressions. After the preventation with PD (50, 100 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)), diabetic mice showed increase in BW, reduction in the levels of FBG, insulin and HbA1 c, relief in insulin resistance and significant recovery in hypertrophy indexes, indicating PD has the protective effect in diabetic myocardial hypertrophy. Meanwhile, PD up-regulated the expression of PPARβ, inhibited the expressions of NF-κB p65, COX-2 and iNOS, demonstrating that PD's protective effect may be related to the activation of PPARβ and the inhibition of NF-κB, COX-2 and iNOS signaling pathways.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of different doses of methylprednisolone in the treatment of children with severe hand foot mouth disease research and analysis. Methods 100 patients in our hospital from January 2014 to August 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group, with 50 patients in each group. The control group were treated with small doses of methylprednisolone, 2 mg/ (kg?d), intravenous injection. The experimental group was treated with large dose of methylprednisolone, 10～15 mg/(kg?d) intravenous infusion. The therapeutic effects of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed. Results after the corresponding treatment, the number of adverse reactions in the experimental group was 31, the adverse reaction rate was 62.0％, and the adverse reaction rate in the control group was 60.0％. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups. The upper respiratory rate and critical illness in the experimental group were 26.0％ and 32.0％, significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The average remission time of the patients in the experimental group was (2.19±1.01) days. The symptomatic remission time in the control group was (4.19±1.89) days. The remission time of the control group was significantly longer than that of the experimental group, with statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The short term large dose of methylprednisolone in treatment of children with severe HFMD clinical effect is ideal, can be reduced to critical illness rate, less symptom remission time, with the further promotion of the clinical significance.

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic stem cells can be differentiated into endocrine functioning cells under a suitable cultivation condition, suggesting that pancreatic stem cells can be used as a new source of islet in treating diabetes mellitus.OBJECTIVE: To discuss the expression of stem cell in different purities of pancreatic islets.DESING: A controlled observation based on cells.SETTING: Third People's Hospital of Mianyang City.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Center Laboratory (Key Laboratory of Chongqing City), the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March 2005 to March 2006. Thirty healthy male SD rats, of clean grade, aged 50 days were used in this study. During the experiment, the disposal of animals corresponded to Animal Ethical Standard. Cytokeratin (CK)-19 and β-actin were designed by Shanghai Invitrogen Biological Co., Ltd.Brdu reagent, mouse anti-rat Brdu monoclonal antibody, rabbit anti-mouse (RAM) CK-19 polyclonal antibody and Brdu immunohistochemical kit were from Boster Co., Ltd. (Wuhan); HistostainTM -DS double immunohistochemical staining kit was purchased from Beijing Zhongshan Company.METHODS: Rats were intraperitoneally injected with Brdu for labeling, and subjected to perfusion with Ⅴ-type collagenase via pancreatic ducts, with pancreas being excised, ripped, beaten up, digested and centrifuged to obtain pancreatic islet sediments. After being precipitated, the sediments were divided into 3 groups. Group A: The isolated sediments of islets were not purified; Group B: The sediments were added slowly with 25% Ficoll-400 and Hanks solution for purification; Group C: The sediments were slowly added with 25% Ficoll-400, 11% Ficoll-400 for purification in order.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Expressions of Brdu and CK-19-positive cells in the islet samples were detected by immunohistochemical method, and mRNA expression of CK-19 in the different purities of islets was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.RESULTS: ① The purity of islets in the group A was the lowest. The purity of islets obtained by different purification techniques showed significances among the three groups (F =89.42, P ＜ 0.05). ②Positive expressions of Brdu and CK-19 in the group A were significantly higher than those in the group B and group C (F =18.64, 22.12, 38.61. P ＜0.01). ③Expression of CK-19 mRNA in the group A was significantly higher than that in other groups, with group C showing the lowest.CONCLUSION: Expressions of Brdu and CK-19-positive cells exist in different purities of islets, suggesting the existence of more stem cells in the low purify of islets.

Objective To clarify the relationship of p63 and CD44 expressions with age and ultraviolet irradiation in the process of skin aging.Methods Full-thickness skin samples were obtained from the normal skin at different sites,including 44 sun-exposed sites(face,neck,dorsal aspect of the forearm),46 sun-protected sites(abdomen,thigh),and 31 semi-exposed sites(back,flexor aspect of the forearm,upper arm,leg),of 121 volunteers(63 males and 58 females).Of all the volunteers,55 were 10 t0 30 vears of age (young),41 were 31 to 50 years of age(adult),and 25 were 51 to 79 years of age(old).Immunohistochemisty using antibodies to p63 and CD44 was applied to detect the expression of p63 and CD44 in these specimens.Imaging analysis software was utilized to calculate the percentage of p63-expressing cells in basal layer as well as the expression level of p63 and CD44.Results In stratum basale,the percentage of p63-expressing cells decreased with age(r=-0.218,P＜0.05),but showed no significant difference among sun-exposed skin,semi-exposed skin and sun-protected skin(P＞0.05).The correlation between the expression intensity of epidermal p63 and age was negative in sun-exposed sites(r=-0.389,P=0.010),positive in sun-protected sites(r=0.341,P＜0.05).but non-significant in semi-exposed sites(P＞0.05).With regard to the expression of epidermal p63,no significant difference was observed among sun-exposed sites,sun-protected sites and semi-exposed sites in volunteers aged from 10 to 30 years.while in those aged from 31 to 50 years and from 51 to 79 years.sun-protected sites was significantly higher than semi-exposed sites followed by sun-exposed sites(all P＜0.05).There was a weak correlation between the expression intensity of epidermal CD44 and age(r=-0.083,P＜0.05),but no significant difierence was noted among the three kinds of sites(P＞0.05).Conclusions In stratum basale,the percentage of p63.expressing cells and the expression intensity Of CD44 negatively correlate with age,but have no correlation with ultraviolet irradiation.In individuals aged from 31 to 50 years and from 51 t0 79 vears.the expression of epidermal p63 decreases with the accumulation of sun-exposure.

The fluorescence of Rhodamune B could be quenched by the manner of photo-unduced electron transfer wuth Cu2-x Se nanopartucles as the energy receptor and Rhodamune B as the energy donor. However, L-cysteune was capable of recoverung the fluorescence of Rhodamune B, and the fluorescence untensuty was proportuonal to the concentratuons of L-cysteune. Based on that, a novel method for detectung L-cysteune was establushed. After muxung L-cysteune and Rhodamune B pretreated by Cu2-x Se nanopartucles at pH 4. 6 and 30℃ for 2 mun, a lunear relatuonshup was obtauned between the fluorescence untensuty of Rhodamune B at 575 nm and the concentratuons of L-cysteune un the range of 2. 5 ×10-7-1. 1 ×10-6 mol/L. Thus method was used un the determunatuon of L-cysteune wuth a detectuon lumut (3σ/k) of 5. 5×10-8 mol/L. The common amuno acuds presented luttle unterference for the L-cysteune detectuon.
