Objective:To observe the pathological changes of levator palpebrae superiors muscle in patients with different severities of simple congenital ptosis (SCP).Methods:Levator palpebrae superiors muscle specimens from 102 eyes of 68 patients with SCP who received levator palpebrae superiors muscle shortening surgery at Wuhan Aier Hankou Eye Hospital from August 2018 to October 2019 were collected as the observation group.According to the severity of ptosis, the specimens were divided into three groups, coverage ≤4 mm group (n=35), coverage >4 mm to ≤6 mm group (n=30), and coverage >6 mm group (n=37). Fresh levator palpebrae superiors muscle tissues from 8 normal donors in Aier Eye Bank of Wuhan Red Cross were selected as the control group.All specimens were performed with Masson trichrome staining and immunohistochemical staining for α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and ImageJ software was used to measure the collagen fiber area ratio, skeletal muscle fiber area ratio and the integrated absorbance (IA) value of α-SMA.Seventeen specimens (2 from the control group, 5 from coverage ≤4 mm group/coverage >4 mm to ≤6 mm group/coverage >6 mm group) were observed with a transmission electron microscope (TEM). This study protocol adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Wuhan Aier Hankou Eye Hospital (No.HKAIER2018IRB-005-01). All patients and their legal guardians were well informed about the treatment method and the purpose of sampling and voluntarily signed informed consent.Results:Compared with the control group, the skeletal muscle fiber was reduced in number and was in disordered arrangement, and the striation of some muscle fibers disappeared, and hyperplastic fibrous connective tissue was found in intercellular substances in the observation group.The collagen fiber area ratio of the coverage ≤4 mm group, coverage >4 mm to ≤6 mm group, coverage >6 mm group were significantly higher than that of the control group, and the skeletal muscle fiber area ratio of the three groups was significantly lower than that of the control group (all at P<0.008 3). There were more smooth muscle fibers and positive expression of α-SMA found in the specimens of the observation group.The IA value of α-SMA of the coverage ≤4 mm group, coverage >4 mm to ≤6 mm group, coverage >6 mm group was 7 195.28(5 935.69, 14 058.29), 55 584.18(33 861.88, 80 419.32), 166 507.76(119 121.95, 187 890.86), respectively, which were all higher than 5 543.03(4 867.67, 8 312.02) of the control group, among which, there were statistically significant differences between the control group and the coverage >4 mm to ≤6 mm group, coverage >6 mm group (both at P<0.008 3). Abundant organelles and some damaged mitochondria were found in smooth muscle cytoplasm in the observation group with a TEM.But no characteristic structure of smooth muscle cells such as dense patch and dense body was detected.Conclusions:There are abnormal smooth muscle cells in the levator palpebrae superiors muscle of SCP patients, and the dysgenesis of the levator palpebrae superiors muscle may be related to this abnormal muscle cell.

Objective To discuss the effects of different postoperative position care on the recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma (CSH).Methods By convenience sampling method,102 patients with CSH were recruited in this study. These patients were admitted to the department of neurosurgery of Beijing Tiantan Hospital from November 2013 to October 2015,and they were divided into two groups by using random digits table method. In one group,52 patients were in the horizontal position without pillow,while in the other group, 50 patients lay in beds with their heads elevated. All patients received burr hole drainage,and were asked to keep the position that required for three days. Afterwards,specific adjustments were made according to the situations of drainage tubes. CT scans of brains were taken 12 hours,one week and three months respectively after operation. The degree of comfort,pulmonary complications,and recurrence rate were investigated during the period of hospitalization and the three-month′s follow-up.Results The recurrence rates were 7.7% and 20.0% respectively (χ2=2.304,P>0.05) for patients in horizontal position without pillow and patients lay in bed with elevation;the score of comfort were (51.6±3.7) and (62.7±3.3) respectively (t=1.919,P>0.05);and the incidences of pulmonary complications in two groups were 7.7% and 4.0%,the rates of venous thrombosis were 1.9% and 2.0% (χ2=0.138,0.471;P>0.05).Conclusions Compared with patients lying in beds with elevation,horizontal position without pillow can help to decrease the risk of recurrence for patients with CSH, but it may lead to more discomfort. Hence,specific postures should be considered for patients with horizontal position.

Objective To provide the clinical evidences for intervening the depression and anxiety in patients with chronic subdural hematoma, we investigated the incidence and the influencing factors of anxiety and depression in these patients.Methods Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used to investigate 100 patients with chronic subdural hematoma in Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tian Tan Hospital of Capital Medical University from October 2015 to May 2016 at admission and discharged. Results The score of SAS was (45.16±8.423) and the detection rate of anxiety was 25% on admission; the score of SDS was (38.86±7.906) and the detection rate of anxiety was 29%; the scores of SAS and SDS both were higher than the national norm (t=17.227, 4.891;P<0.05). The detection rate of anxiety was 10% and the detection rate of depression was 12% at discharged; the scores of SAS (38.86±7.906) and SDS (44.15±6.772) both were also higher than the national norm (t=10.756,3.047;P<0.05).Conclusions Patients with chronic subdural hematoma have high detection rates of anxiety and depression, so we should pay sufficient attention. The doctors and nurses should regard the psychological problems when implement diagnosis and treatment of the physical diseases in patients with chronic subdural hematoma, and promptly provide clinical intervention to against anxiety, depression and other psychological problems for promoting the physical and mental health of patients.
