?AlM: To discuss the differences in accommodative lag of different stimulation between the adolescent myopes who wore rigid gas permeable contact lens ( RGPCL ) and spectacles for one year.
?METHODS: Totally 85 myopes between 10-16y were enrolled in the study. Every subject was examined with the visual function test, medical optometry, corneal topography and ocular health check etc. of eyes. According to the above measurements and the compliance of children and their parents, 41 subjects were selected to wear RGPCL, 44 subjects were chosen to wear spectacles. Based on maximum plus to maximum visual acuity ( MPMVA) , accommodative lag was determined by dynamic retinoscopy method in two groups. The subjects were examined once every 3mo, accommodative lag was measured again using the same method for comparative analysis after one year. Wearing a year later, myopia progression of the two groups was measured and compared.
?RESULTS: There was no significant difference between two groups of initial accommodative lag (P>0. 05). After wearing one year, there was also no significant difference between the accommodative lag examined and the initial lag in RGPCL group (P>0. 05), the results demonstrate significant difference between the accommodative lag examined after wearing one year and the initial lag in spectacles group ( P < 0. 05 ). One year later, the differences were significant in accommodative lag between RGPCL and spectacles wearers stimulated by 2D, 3D and 4D ( P < 0. 05 ), and the accommodative lag increased with increasing stimulation in both groups. After wearing a year, the myopia progression of RGPCL group was less than spectacles wearers, and the differences were significant (P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON:After wearing RGPCL and spectacles one year in high accommodative stimulus, there is an obviously decreased in accommodative lag in RGPCL group, which suggests that RGPCL can control the progression of myopia in adolescents. The accommodative lag of the two groups increase obviously with increasing stimulation, which suggest that the adolescents need keeping good habits of reading.

Background Cardiomyocytes apoptosis was related to oxidative stress which has been shown to play an important role in ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction(MI).Probucol is a hypolipidemic and antioxidant agents.Several reports demonstrated its cardioprotective effect after MI.However,the exact effect of probucol on the modification of the apoptosis related gene Bcl-2 and Bax is not clear.Objective To investigate the effects of probucol on mRNA and protein expression of Bcl-2,Bax and oxidative stress in myocardial infarcted rats.Methods Forty-one SD rats that survived 24 h after ligating left anterior descending coronary artery were randomly to receive placebo-saline(5 mL/d,n=20)or probucol(probucol 60 mg/kg?d,n=21).Twelve rats underwent sham operation were served as control(n=12).Six weeks after treatment,hemodynamic pararmeters and left ventricular function were measured with catheterization.Cardiomyocytes apoptosis were determined by TUNEL method.Myocardium mRNA of Bcl-2 and Bax expression levels in the non-infarcted myocardium were as- sessed by RT-PCR.The myocardium protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in the non-infarcted myocardium were de- termined by Western blot.Colorimetry was used to determine oxidative metabolism index in myocardium.Results 1)Compared with the sham rats,all MI rats showed marked decrease in Bcl-2 mRNA and protein expression in myo- cardium with increase of Bax mRNA and protein expression and apoptosis index(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between insulin resistance and erythrocyte in- sulin receptors in patients with gout associated with macroalbruminuria(MAU).Methods FBG,PBG,FINS, P2hINS,CH,TG,HDL,LDL-c,UA and erythrocyte insulin receptors were determined in 44 patients with MAU,62 patients with normal MAU(NMAU).Results In MAU,the levels of FINS,TG,LDL-c and HOMA-IR were(16?4)mU/L,(2.5?0.6)retool/L,(3.2?0.5)mmol/L and 3.6~1.2 respectively.While they were(13?3) mU/L,(2.3?0.8)mmol/L,(3.0?0.5)mmol/L and 3.0~0.4 in NMAU group.The levels of FINS,TG,LDL-c and HOMA-IR were significantly higher in the MAU patients than those in NMAU patients(P

In this paper, the new carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (F-CNTs/GCE) was prepared to establish a new method for studying the molecular interaction mechanism between baicalin metal complexes (BMC) and bovine serum album (BSA), and the principle of this method was discussed deeply. Under the physiological condition, the thermodynamics and kinetics properties of interaction between BMC and BSA were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) to inference their molecular effective mechanism. The results show that the presence of F-CNTs can accelerate the electron transfer, and better response signal was showed in the BMC/BMC-BSA system. The detection of interaction of BMC-BSA used new method show that BMC-BSA generates stable thermodynamically non-covalent compounds, and the obtained average binding sites of BMC-BSA were 1.7; the number of electron transfer in BMC/BMC-BSA reaction process was 2, and non electroactive supramolecular compounds of BMC-BSA were generated by this interacting reaction. The relevant research work provides a new way to study the molecular mechanism for the interaction of drugs with protein, and with a certain reference value for discussion on the non covalent interactions.

Objective To investigate the effect of transplantation of mouse marrow stromal cells (mMSCs) on Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) transgenic mice through cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) injection.Methods We delivered 5 × 105 mMSCs into SOD1 transgenic mice by single injection to CSF at the age of 8 weeks or by multiple injections at the age of 8,10 and 12 weeks.Neurologic phenotype observation,weight measurement,hanging wire test and motor neuron counts were used to assess disease progression of SOD1 mice.Results Single transplantation of mMSCs didn' t show beneficial effect on SOD1 mice.Compared with vehicle-treated mice,SOD1 transgenic mice with multiple transplantations of mMSCs demonstrated attenuated weight loss,improved motor performance,decreased motor neuron loss,and importantly,prolonged survival by 17 days ((157 ± 15) d vs (140 ± 11) d; x2 =7.56,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Intrathecal injection could be an effective route of cell transplantation,and multiple transplantations of mMSCs are needed to achieve the therapeutic effect on SOD1 mice.

Objective:To prepare monoclonal antibody ( mAb ) against human testis-specific conserved gene ( hTSC29 ) peptides and characterize its immunological and biological features.Methods:According to bioinformatics analysis and prediction of the antigenicity, surface property, hydrophilicity and flexibility of hTSC29, a 18-amino acid residue partial peptide of hTSC29 was synthesized,then immunized the BALB/c mice for preparing antiserum.The mAb against hTSC29 was produced using the routine hybridoma technique.The properties of the mAb against hTSC29 were identified by ELISA, Western blot and immunohistochemistry staining.Results:After cell fusion and subcloning, one hybridoma cell lines secreting specific mAb against hTSC29 protein were obtaind.The Ig subclass of the mAb was IgG2b(κ).ELISA detection showed that the titer of mAbs in cultured was 1∶104.Western blot analysis proved that the mAb could specifically recognize Mr 60 000 protein in human testis total protein.The hTSC29 protein main located at circumference of spermatocyte and spermatid in human testis tissue by immunohistochemistry staining and immunofluorescence assay.Conclusion:One hybridoma cell lines which can secrete specific mAb against hTSC29 protein with high titers and specificity have been established successfully.The mAb will provide efficient tools for functional studies of hTSC29 expressed in spermatogenesis.

Objective To investigate CT findings,of the non-epithelial benign tumors of the larynx and their value in diagnosis and treatment.Methods Thirty-nine patients with non-epithelial benign tumors of larynx were examined with CT before treatment.Results Twenty-two cases with hemangioma displayed phebolithes in 9 cases,plain CT in 8 cases showed isodensity with respect to muscle near them and enhanced CT in 14 cases showed moderate to marked enhancement(9 cases)and no contrast enhancement(5 cases). Among 6 cases of neurogenic tumor,neurilemmoma(5 cases)presented as low to intermediate density on plain CT scan(1 case)and enhancement with homogeneous or inhomogeneous after enhanced CT,another case of neurofibroma presented as low density with homogeneous on plain CT imaging.Chondroma(3 cases) showed enhancement with inhomogeneous on enhanced CT scan.Pleomophic adenoma(3 cases)showed moderate to marked enhancement and one of the three cases presented as marked cystic degeneration. Lipoma(2 cases)demonstrated low density with no contrast enhancement.Lymphangioma,leiomyoma and fibroma(each has 1 case)displayed no contrast enhancement(lymphangioma)and moderate to marked enhancement(leiomyoma and fibroma)on enhanced CT scans.Conclusion CT can definitely display the shape,range and density of the tumors in larynx and provide information for diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To demonstrate high mobility group box chromosomal protein 1(HMGBI) expression in synovium and joint,and to identify the role of HMGB1 in the pathogenesis of synovitis and joint destruction in adjuvant-induced arthritis(AA).Methods AA of 15 male rats were induced in SD rats by intradermal injection of 100?l Freud's complete adjuvant in the foot pad of the left hind paw.All rats were killed at the 18th day.Synovium and joints were collected for histopathology studies and determining the expression of HMGB1 by immunohistochemistry,and serum was collected for determining the expression of HMGB1 by western blotting analysis.Results Immunostaining of specimens from normal rats showed that HMGB1 was primarily confined to the nucleus of synoviocytes with occasional cytoplasmic staining.In contrast, inflammatory synovial tissues from AA rats showed a distinctly different HMGB1 staining pattern.Nuclear HMGBI expression was accompanied by a cytoplasmic staining in many mononuclear cells.The cytoplasmic HMGB1 expression in synovium of AA rats is significantly higher than that of normal rats.Additionally,HMGBI was highly expressed in the nuclei and cytoplasm of the subchondral chondrocytes and inflammatory cells in bone erosion in AA rats(P＜0.01),while fewer positive cytoplasmic staining of HMGB1 was found in chondrocytes and fewer positive nuclear staining was found in bone cells in normal rats.HMGB1 concentration was significantly higher in serum of AA rats than that in normal rats(P＜0.001).Conclusion The cytoplasmic HMGBI expression in synovium and joints is greatly upregulated;the level of HMGB1 in serum is increased in AA rats which suggests a patbogenetic role of HMGB1 in synovitis and bone destruction of adjuvant-induced arthritis.

Objective To observe the effect of perioperative rehabilitation on anterior spinal cord syndrome caused by cervical hyper-flexion injury. Methods Sixty-nine inpatients with anterior spinal cord syndrome after cervical hyperflexion injury from January, 2012 to De-cember, 2014 were reviewed. 32 cases (group A) accepted systematic rehabilitations and other 37 cases (group B) did not. They were as-sessed with Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores preoperatively and 1-year follow-up. Results All the patients succeeded in the operation. The JOA score improved more 1 year follow-up in group A than group B (t=2.538, P=0.044). Conclusion Systematic rehabilita-tion may work in the management of anterior spinal cord syndrome after cervical hyperflexion injury.

One hundred and four patients aged of 65 years or above with cardiocerebral vascular diseases admitted from March to September 2008 were enrolled in the study. The fast plasma glucose (FPG) and 2 hours postprandial blood glucose (2 hPG) were tested. For patients with undiagnosed diabetes, if FPG≥7.0 mmol/L, 2 hPG≥11.1 mmol/L, their blood sugar index was checked again; if 2hPG was 7.8 mmol/L to 11.1 mmol/L, FPG from 6.1 mmol/L to 7.0 mmol/L, Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed. Among the 104 patients, 30 cases of diabetes were diagnosed previously accounting for 28.8 %; 7 cases were newly diagnosed accounting for 6.8%; 21 cases were diagnosed as impaired glucose regulation accounting for 20.2%, with a total rate of sugar metabolism abnormality of 55.8%. The results indicate that blood glucose index should be regularly checked for elderly patients with cardiocerebral vascular diseases.
