?AIM:To investigate the correlation between dry eye and different degrees of diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) in type 2 diabetic patients.?METHODS: In the cross-sectional study, 340 patients (340 eyes) with type 2 diabetes were enrolled. Tear film function tests including tear meniscus height, tear film breakup time ( BUT ) , fluorescein staining, Schirmer Ⅰtest were performed followed by surveying questionnaires about dry eye. Retinal status was evaluated by retinal color photography and indirect ophthalmoscopy exam with dilated pupils to evaluate DR and whether companied by macular edema.?RESULTS:The prevalence of dry eye was 49. 41%. The mean duration of diabetes in patients with dry eye was 11.15±7.07a, while 6.92±5.45a without dry eye(P<0.01). Dry eye had the positive correlation to the development of DR. The incidence of dry eye in people with mild nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy ( NPDR ) , moderate NPDR, severe NPDR and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) was 1. 097 times, 1. 724 times, 2. 86 times and 5. 43 times respectively, compared with people without DR. The occurrence of dry eye in people with macular edema increased by 3. 697 times compared with people without macular edema.?CONCLUSION: Dry eye was more prevalent in people with type 2 diabetes. The incidence of dry eye increased gradually with the occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy.

Objective To investigate the level of mental health and effect of psychological rehabilitation on paraplegic patients. Methods 38 paraplegic patients were randomly divided into control group (n=19) and treatment group (n=19). Both groups received physical therapy and occupational therapy, while the treatment group received psychotherapy in addition, once a week for 3 weeks. Their mental health level was assessed with Self-reporting Inventory. Results The psychological problems occurred was ranked as somatization, anxiety, fear, interpersonal sensitivity, depression and obsession from more to less. The scores of each factor reduced after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion The paraplegics are in poor mental health condition, so more psychotherapy intervention should be taken to improve their rehabilitation effect and quality of life.

Objective: To discuss the effect of group counseling on the self-control of male adolescents drug addicts. Methods: 90 male adolescents drug addicts who accepted group counseling were identified as test group, while another 97 male adolescents drug addicts who accepted no intervention as control group. Self Control Scale developed by Grasmick in 1993 was used to assess the outcome. Results: The total scores in the test group decreased from 52.06?6.67 to 47.68? 8.67, and all dimension scores were at significant level (P

Objective To compare the clinical diagnoses with autopsy findings and evaluate the frequency of misdiagnosis.Methods The findings of 356 cases who were autopsied in our department due to medical treatment dispute during the period of 1988 to 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical diagnosis and autopsy findings,sex and age of the death,length of hospitalization,the hospital department,distribution of death disease and the rank of hospital were analyzed.The concordance between diagnosis before death and at autopsy was calculated.Results In 162 cases(45.5%),the autopsy findings confirmed the clinical diagnosis.In 101 cases(28.4%),the clinical diagnosis suggested by clinicians were discordant with the autopsy findings.In 63 cases(17.7%),some diagnoses made by clinicians were proved by autopsy,and in 30 cases(8.4%),the clinical and postmortem diagnosis were beyond comparison.The most frequently misdiagnosed diseases were from cardiovascular and respiratory diseases,and among them,cardiomyopathy,aortic atherosclerosis and pneumonia were most common.Conclusion Autopsy is not only helpful for the management of medical dispute,but also beneficial to reduce the misdiagnosis in clinical practice.

Background The pathogenesis of pterygium has been in the study.Relative molecular biology study showed that pterygium is a tumor-like lesion,and based on overseas literatures,human papillomavirus (HPV) is positively expressed in 100％ patients with pterygium in some region.However,if this result is suitable for Chinese patients is unclear.Objective This study was to identify the role of human HPV in the pathogenesis of pterygia in Wuxi area.Methods Forty-eight pterygium specimens including 7 recurrent pterygia and 41 primary pterygia were collected during the operation,and these patients were from Wuxi area.Two cervical carcinoma specimens and 2 conjunctiva specimens from normal donors were obtained as positive control and negative control respectively.The fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) was used to detect HPV DNA of specimens.Results The amplified curves of HPV 6,11 of pterygium specimens,cervical carcinoma specimens and normal specimens were all below the positive quality control curve,but the amplified curves of HPV16,18 were above the quality control curve in cervical carcinoma specimens; while those of pterygium specimens and normal conjunctival specimens were all below the quality control curve.HPV16/18 was identified in 2 cervical carcinoma specimens,but no HPV6/11 was detected in 2 cervical carcinoma specimens.However,HPV DNA expression in primary and recurrent pterygias were absent.Conclusions According to these results,HPV is not the primary cause for the pathogenesis of pterygium in Wuxi region.

Objective To investigate the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes, KIR2DS4 and its variant KIR1D for an association with syphilis in the comparison between syphilis patients and unrelated healthy subjects. Methods One hundred and ninety syphilis patients and 192 unrelated healthy subjects were performed to determine the KIR genotypes by PCR-SSP method. The gene frequencies of KIR2DS4 and KIR1D were analyzed for an association with syphilis in the patients and healthy people who belonged to KIR gene haplotype A. Results Of 192 healthy individuals, 187 were identified with a KIR2DS4 gene. And 91 individuals were classified as homozygous haplotype A with the percent of 48.7% (91/187) in 187 KIR2DS4 positive individuals. Of 190 syphilis patients, 181 were identified with a KIR2DS4 gene. And 89 individuals were classified as homozygous haplotype A with the percent of 49.2% (89/181) in 181 KIR2DS4 positive individuals. The frequency of KIR1D/KIR1D in syphilis patients classified as haplotype A was 16.9%, and was significantly higher than that in the control group (6.6%, P=0.032). However, there was no significant difference for the frequencies of KIR2DS4/KIR2DS4 and KIR2DS4/KIR1D between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion KIR1D/KIR1D might be associated with syphilis in the comparison between syphilis patients and unrelated healthy controls who were classified as homozygous haplotype A.

Objective To investigate the long-term prognosis and possible risk factors of acute kidney injury(AKI)following cardiac surgeries. Methods Clinical data of 941 patients undergoing open heart surgery from January 2004 to June 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.Survival and renal function of above patients were informed through telephone or clinic follow-up till February 2010.Long-term survival was analyzed using risk-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results Of the 941 patients after cardiac surgery,275(29.2%)developed AKI and 666(70.8%)did not.Survival was worse in patients with AKI(67.8%vs 85.6%,P<0.01)and was proportional to its severity (AKIN 1,2 and 3 stages:70.7%,62.3%and 58.6%,P<0.01).Although 90.5% of patients had complete renal recovery after AKI at discharge of hospital,they still had an increased risk for death during follow-up compared with patients without AKI (69.6% vs 85.6%,P<0.01).In the Cox proportional hazards regression model,age(HR=2.238),anemia (HR=1.625),prolonged operation time (HR=1.153),AKI severity (HR=1.473)were independent risk factors for long-term prognosis after cardiac surgery.At the end of the follow-up,patients with AKI had statistically higher Scr than non-AKI patients(107.6 μmol/L vs 83.0 μmol/L,P=0.014),and among those AKI patients,34.0%progressed into CKD 3-5 stages,34.8%developed double serum creatinine. Conclusions AKI is a risk factor for the long-term prognosis of cardiac surgery.Patients with complete renal recovery after AKI still has an increased risk for death and poor renal function compared with patients without AKI.

Objective To investigate the expression level of CD226 mRNA in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and explore the relation between the gene expression and disease activity, and the relation between the gene expression and Gly307Ser polymorphism of CD226 was also examined. Methods CD226 gene was measured with real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT- PCR) in PBMCs. The expression levels of CD226 gene in PBMCs were compared between 90 SLE patients and 30 healthy individuals. One-way ANOVA and pearson correlation were used for statistical analysis. Results The expression level of CD226 in the PBMCs of SLE patients (6.8±1.1) was significantly decreased compared to healthy individuals (26.5±6.7) (P＜0.01), while there was no association between mRNA level and genotype (P＞0.05). No correlation between ESR, CRP, ANA, SLEDAI scores, C3 and the expression level of CD226 gene was discovered. Conclusion In Hubei Chinese Han population, CD226-Gly307Ser locus is associated with the development of SLE, while T allele does not impact the expression of CD226 gene, thus the role of CD226 gene in autoimmune diseases should be explored in the future.
