To assess the impact of the operational simulation training system on the cultivation of ophthalmic students.
●METHODS: Four hundred and eighty ophthalmic students in China Medical University from 2009 to 2011 were chosen as objects and divided into two groups at random. The students in the experimental group used operation simulation training system combined with traditional teaching methods, while the students in the control group only used traditional teaching methods. We examined the operation skills and the confidence of all the students half a year later.
●RESULTS: The improvement of the operation skills during the suture technique examination, and the confidence for operation technology were significantly different in two groups. The basic skills of the students in the examination groups improved apparently during the operational simulation training and they were full of confidence to their operational technique.
●CONCLUSlON: The operational simulation training is useful for promoting the clinical ability for ophthalmic students and should be widely popularized.

Objective To analyze the clinical features,curative effect and prognosis of extra-pulmonary infections by mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP).Methods ELISA was used to detect anti-MP IgM and IgG.Case histories of 226 patients,whose nasopharyneal lotione and respiratory secretions were positive of virus and bacteria respectively,was analysed retrospectively.Results One hundred and eighteen of the 226 (52.2%) cases suffered from extra-pulmonary infection.Of these infections 38.98%,33.89%,21.11% and 17.79% were found in digestive, urinary, cardiovascular systems and serous membrane respectively.All of the cases were improved after treatment with macrolides antibiotics.All cases were MP IgM positive,35.5% cases were IgG positive.Spatum MP positive rate was 32.2%.Positive rate of cold-agglutination test was 47.46%.Conclusions MP infection may cause many extra-pulmonary complications.When multi-organ infections can not be explained with bacterial and viral infections,MP infection should be considered.

The effects of ovariectomy (OVX) an d pinealectomy (PX) on apoptosis of cingulated gyrus cell in rats were investiga ted. The results suggest that OVX or PX could induce apoptosis in cingulated gyr us cells, the effect by PX is more serious than that by OVX, and combining effec t of 2 operations is more serious than either effect alone. The effects of OVX a nd PX on cell apoptosis are not related to glial cells.

Objective To investigate effects of different solvent, different temperature and different concentration of hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin on solubility of asarone. Method Determination of asarone solubility in different solvent, at different temperature and different concentration of cyclodextrin were carried out by HPLC-UV method. Results The solubility of asarone in water, tea oil, ethanol, and methanol were 0. 1 mg·mL-1 13.44 mg·mL-1, 1.87 mg·mL-1 and 1.76 mg·mL-1, respectively. The concentration and temperature of cyclodextrin showed a positive correlation with solubility of asarone. At normal temperature, the solubility of asarone in water increased 10 times by 45 % hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin. Conclusion Asarone has poor solubility in water and it can be improved by high concentration of hydroxypropyl cyelodetrin.

Cytoplast and microprotoplast are main subprotoplasts that can play an important role in plant genetic improvement.The present review highlights the advancements in isolation and fusion of plant subprotoplast,and some suggestions and prospects are proposed for the future studies.

Objective To explore the effects of diabetes mellitus on the left ventricular geometry in essential hypertension(EH). Methods Patients with hypertension admitted between 2000 to 2007 were retrospectively analysed.Those meeting the study criteria were divided into EH group(n=1660) and EH with diabetes mellitus group(n=953).The general data,biochemical parameters and echocardiographic findings were analysed. Results Compared with EH group,the age,course of hypertension,body mass index,systolic blood pressure,fasting blood glucose and triglyceride were increased(P

To compare and analyze the clinical treatment effect of primary pterygium with amniotic membrane transplantation, autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation and intraoperative application of 0. 2g/L mitomycin C.METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 232 patients who were underwent primary pterygium surgery was performed. Eighty-two cases were treated with amniotic membrane transplantation, 90 with autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation, and 60 with intraoperative application of 0. 2g/L mitomycin C. The postoperative recurrence and complications of three operative methods were compared.RESULTS: The recurrence rate of autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation and intraoperative application of 0. 2g/L mitomycin C was lower than that of amniotic membrane transplantation ( P < 0. 05 ). The recurrence rate between autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation and intraoperative application of 0. 2g/L mitomycin C had no difference ( P > 0. 05 ). Corneal epithelium defect, tears and photophobia were higher in 0.2g/L mitomycin C group (P<0. 05), which were no statistical difference between autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation and amniotic membrane transplantation (P>0. 05). Conjunctival congestion and subconjunctival hemorrhage in three groups had no statistical difference (P>0. 05).CONCLUSlON: Compared with other two operative methods, autologous corneal limbus stem cell transplantation for primary pterygium has the advantages of lower recurrence rate and less complications.

Objective To investigate the impacts of the left ventricular size for infants with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection(TAPVC) on the early results of anatomical correction.Methods From Jan 2010 to Jun 2013,103 cases of TAPVC children under 1 year of age received biventricular correction in our hospital,including 65 males and 38 females with the mean body weight of(5.3 ± 1.3) kg.Taking left ventricular end-diastolic volume index(LVEDVI) of 20 ml/m2 as a boundary,all the children were divided into two groups:Small LV group and the Near normal LVgroup.Various factors including age,body weight,pathological type,pulmonary venous obstruction and restricted atrial septal defect were compared between the two groups.The Z value were introduced to demonstrate the small extent of the left atrium and left ventricle of TAPVC patients in comparison with the normal children.TAPVC correction surgery were performed with conventional median sternotomy,moderate hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass and combined malformations were treated simultaneously.Results 45 patients were classified to Small LV group and 58 patients were classified toNear normal LV group.71.1％ of all Small LV patients was diagnosed as the obstruction type of TAPVC,the ratio was significantly higher than that of theNear normal LV group.The Z value of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter in theSmall LV group was significantly lower than that of the Near normal LV group.The mean CPB and aortic clamping time of all patients were (96.6 ± 34.4) min and (58.0 ±21.1) min respectively.There were 4 early postoperative death and the overall mortality was 3.9％.No patient was dead of low cardiac output.The duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation,ICU stay and vasoactive drugs application in Small LV group was significantly longer than that of Near normal LV group.Conclusion TheSmall LV,which should be viewed as relative dysplasia of left ventricle ,is more common in obstructive type of TAPVC.As long as the sizes of mitral valve and aortic valve were not significantly reduced,anatomic correction can be implemented and need not to concern the reducing degree of left ventricle.Nevertheless,the prevention and treatment of low cardiac output in the operation and early postoperative period were still key points for small LV patients to achieve good surgical results.
