Objective To investigate the difference of curative effect of various surgical methods for the treatment of idiopathic senile macular hole. Methods A retrospective analysis was made for 86 eyes with stage Ⅱ Ⅳ idiopathic full thickness macular hole treated with various modes of operation,ie, single vitrectomy (7 eyes),vitrectomy combined with autologous platelet concentrate (APC) as an adjuvant (40 eyes), vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling (14 eyes), vitrectomy with both ILM peeling and APC treatment (25 eyes). The main outcome measures included anatomic reattachment rate,change of visual acuity,findings of optic coherence tomography (OCT), Amsler grid and intra or postoperative complication evaluations. Results (1) In visual acuity improvement, the APC group (80.0%) was significantly better than anyone of the other three groups ( P

rAdinbitor was cloned from Gloydius blomhoffi brevicaudus in the laboratory. Previous researches had proved that rAdinbitor could inhibit proliferation of C6 glioma cells as well as promote their apoptosis. The molecular mechanism of rAdinbitor’s effects on C6 cells need to be further studied. rAdinbitor was expressed in E. coli BL21/pET23b-adinbitor and purified with Ni Sepharose 6 Fast Flow. The purified protein was confirmed by Western blotting. C6 cells were induced with fibronectin (FN). The effects of rAdinbitor with different concentrations on the expression of FAK, MEK1/2 and Caspase-3 as well as on activity of FAK and ERK1/2 in FN-induced C6 cells were studied by immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation. Results showed that rAdinbitor with different concentrations could obviously reduce the expression of FAK and MEK1/2, increase the expression of Caspase-3, as well as decrease ERK1/2 phosphorylation; besides 10 mg/L rAdinbitor, other concentrations’ rAdinbitor could inhibit FAK phosphorylation obviously. All those effects were dose-dependent. Results indicate that the effects of rAdinbitor on decreasing expression and activity of FAK and inhibiting Ras-MAPK signaling pathway play an important role in suppressing the proliferation of C6. Furthermore, the increase in Caspase-3 expression implies that the increase in apoptosis of C6 cells might be due to the suppression of rAdinbitor on the activity of ILK and PI-3K/Akt pathway.

Objective To evaluate the advantages of cytomegalovirus (CMV) real-time PCR, to monitor CMV infection in a population of transplantation recipients in comparison with the qualitative PCR method.Methods 150 plasma samples and leukocytes samples collected from 59 bone marrow transplant recipients and 9 liver transplant recipients were tested by qualitative CMV PCR assay in parallel; Real-time CMV PCR using Roche Light Cycler was performed with 150 plasma samples and 54 control plasma samples.Results Using real-time PCR as the reference standard, the sensitivity and specificity of the qualitative CMV PCR assay with leukocytes samples were 62.5% and 95.5%, with plasma samples were 57.5% and 99.1% respectively. The recipients with the level of CMV DNA over 5?10~3 copies/ml by real-time PCR had higher percentage of developing CMV disease than those below 10~3 copies/ml.Conclusion The quantitative detection of CMV DNA by real-time PCR with plasma is a rapid, specific and sensitive method to monitor CMV infection in patients after transplantation and to guide antivirus therapy.

Background The patients who have undergone successful surgery for retinal detachment (RD) cannot recover their vision quickly,and the reason is not very clearly now.Objective This study was to compare the ellipsoid zone integrity in macula and frequency and duration of subretinal fluid after scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in primary macula-off rhegmatogenous RD,and to discuss the sequent influence of subretinal fluid on postoperative visual acuity.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 66 cases of rhegmatogenous RD in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2010 to January 2013.All the cases were divided into 2 groups:scleral buckling group and PPV group.The courses of disease,refractive status,best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and complications were recorded.The duration of subretinal fluid and ellipsoid zone integrity in macula were observed and the occurrence rates of subretinal fluid were calculated 1 month after surgery.Results There were no statistic differences on age,gender,courses of disease,refractive status and LogMAR visual acuity (all at P＞0.05).The average duration of subretinal fluid was (96 ±60) days in scleral buckling group,and (21 ±6) days in PPV group,with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (t =7.966,P =0.000).The occurrence rate of subretinal fluid at 1 month after surgery was 78.6％ in the scleral buckling group and 12.5％ in the PPV group,with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (x2=26.891,P =0.000).The LogMAR visual acuity was significantly different between the patients with and without subretinal fluid at 1 month after scleral buckling surgery (t=3.185,P=0.003).The LogMAR visual acuity was not significantly different between the scleral buckling group and PPV group 6 months after scleral surgery (t =1.876,P =0.065).The LogMAR visual acuity was not significantly different between the patients with and without subretinal fluid at 6 month after scleral buckling surgery (t =1.755,P=0.087).After the subretinal fluid was reabsorbed,the LogMARs visual acuity were significantly different between the patients with intact ellipsoid zone and with disrupt ellipsoid zone in both groups (scleral buckling group:t=2.555,P=0.015;PPV group:t=4.005,P=0.001).Conclusions The disruption extent of the ellipsoid zone is related to the duration of RD,and the integrity affects the postoperative visual acuity distinctly.The subretinal fluid is removed more rapidly after PPV when compared with scleral buckling in macula-off rhegmatogenous RD.The subretinal fluid delays visual recovery postoperatively but the operation method does not influence final visual acuity seriously.

Water deprivation and loading tests were performed in a patient with sustained hypernatremia and hypodypsia. Results suggested that the regulation of ADH release was still retained despite of the raised threshold, being consistant with the diagnosis of essential hypernatremia. The hypernatremia of this patient was partially improved by dihydrochlorothiazide and desmopression acetate (DDAVP).

Objective To synthesize 68 Ga-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N,N()-tetraacetic acid-D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide (68Ga-DOTATATE) manually and automatically,validate its qualities in vitro,and evaluate its biodistribution in ICR mice and the microPET imaging in nude mice bearing pancreatic AR42J tumor.Methods 68Ga-DOTATATE was synthesized by automatic method using commercial metal isotope multifunctional module with strong cation exchange (SCX) column and by manual method.Both the products were measured for quality control.For the biodistribution study 5 groups of ICR mice were injected with 68Ga-DOTATATE(1.11 MBq) and executed at 10,30,60,120 and 240 min postinjection,respectively.The organs were weighted,and ％ ID/g was calculated.Nude mice bearing pancreatic AR42J tumor were intravenously injected with 3.7 MBq 68Ga-DOTATATE,and then microPET imaging was acquired at 10,30,60,120,18 and 240 min.Results 68Ga-DOTATATE could be successfully synthesized by the automatic and manual methods.Both the product injections were colorless and clear.The pH value was 6.5±0.1.For the products obtained from the two methods,the radiochemical purities were over 99％,and the products were stable for 4 h at room temperature.For the automatic method,68Ga-DOTATATE was synthesized within 30 min and with the radiochemical yield of (51.8±3.2)％ (time decay corrected).For the manual method,the time used for the synthesis was 20 min,and the labeling yield was over 99％.Three batches of the products were aseptic and pyrogen-free.In ICR mice,68Ga-DOTATATE was excreted by the kidney,and showed relatively high accumulation in the liver,spleen,pancreas and adrenal glands,while lower in the bone and soft tissue.The clearance from blood was fast with (4.41±0.81) ％ID/g at 10 min postinjection and (0.78 ± 0.32) ％ ID/g at 1 h.MicroPET imaging showed increased uptake of 68GaDOTATATE in the tumor tissues,and T/NT were 2.01±0.29(10 min),6.74±2.90(30 min) and 4.46±2.05 (60 min),respectively.Conclusions 68 Ga-DOTATATE could be successfully synthesized manually and automatically.The products reach to the specification of radioactive drugs and could be used as an attractive positron emitting radiotracer for detection of the somatostatin receptor-positive tumors.

Objective: To establish a hypertension risk assessment model among the middle-aged and elderly populations based on residents' electronic healthcare records of the basic public health service program, so as to provide insights into prevention of hypertension. Methods: Demographic features and physical examinations were collected among residents at ages of 40 years and older from residents' electronic healthcare records of the basic public health service program in a county of Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2020. The risk factors of hypertension were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and the odds ratio (OR) for each risk factor was transformed into approximate relative risk (RR), which was included in the formula for calculation of the disease risk proposed by Harvard School of Public Health to create a hypertension risk assessment model. The predictive value of the model was evaluated using a receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: Totally 7 275 subjects were enrolled, with a mean age of (66.15±7.91) years, and the participants included 3 189 males and 4 086 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 0.78∶1. There were 190 cases with new-onset hypertension (2.61%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that overweight, obesity, central obesity, borderline high triacylglycerol (TG), elevated TG, abnormal fasting plasma glucose (FPG), prehypertension and family history of hypertension were included in the hypertension risk assessment model, with approximate RR values of 1.66, 1.96, 1.54, 1.17, 1.64, 1.45, 1.69 and 1.11. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the model was 0.678 (95%CI: 0.641-0.715, P<0.001), and the optimal positive cut-off was 0.899. The model predicted 139 subjects with RR>0.899 for hypertension, with a sensitivity of 73.16% and specificity of 55.79%. Conclusions The hypertension risk assessment model created in this study is feasible to predict the RR for developing hypertension among the middle-aged and elderly populations, which has a predictive value in healthcare management.
