1.Evaluation methods of anterior chamber and angle structures after laser peripheral iridotomy
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2011;29(2):174-178
Laser peripheral iridotomy ( LPI) is one of the main therapy for glaucoma due to its reliable efficacy of widening peripheral angle and therefore decreasing intraocular pressure by partially relieving pupillary block. The parameters of the anterior chamber angle following the LPI are the main evaluation indexes. At present,the detecting and diagnosis technique for the anterior chamber angle is deeply advancing, including gonioscopy, ultrasound biomicroscopy, anterior segment optical coherence tomography and Pentacam. These methods offer some useful parameters and also present with some limits in the application respectively in the evaluation of anterior chamber and angle structure. This review focuses on the application of Methods mentioned above and morphologic changes of anterior chamber and angle structure following the LPI.

Objective To produce an erythrocytic stage chimeric protein of Plasmodium berghei in Pichia pastoris and evaluate its immunogenicity. Methods The DNA sequences of AMA1 (Ⅲ) and MSP1-19 from P. berghei homologous to the corresponding sequences of P. falciparum chimeric antigen 2.9 (PfCP-2.9) were fused to generate a chimeric gene, designated as PbCP-2.9. The resulting gene was redesigned using Pichia preferential coden usage and expressed in P. pastoris in the secreted form. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Three groups each with 10 BALB/c mice were im- munized subcutaneously with 20 ?g of purified PbCP-2.9 antigen formulated in Freund’s adjuvant, Montanide ISA720 and Montanide IMS 1 312, respectively. Three control groups each with 10 mice received only adjuvants emulsified with PBS. All the mice received three immunizations at 2-week intervals with the same dose of antigen. Serum samples were collected at preimmunization and one week after each immunization, and were analyzed for specific antibodies by ELISA and reaction with natural P. berghei proteins by IFAT. Results The PbCP-2.9 antigen with Mr 26 400 was successfully expressed in P. pastoris in secret- ed form. The recombinant protein can be recognized by the serum against blood stage parasites of P. berghei. High antibody responses were detected in all three PbCP-2.9-immune groups of mice by ELISA. However, mice immunized with PbCP-2.9 antigen in Freund’s adjuvant produced higher antibody titers than those with PbCP-2.9 antigen in Montanide ISA 206 and Montanide IMS 1312 adjuvants. The mean antibody titer in Freund’s adjuvant was 6.9-fold higher than in Montanide ISA 206 adjuvant and 5.6-fold higher than in Montanide IMS 1312 adjuvant after the second immunization (F=81.06, P

AlM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of canalicular intubation combined with external dacryocystorhinostomy ( ext-DCR ) for treatment of chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis.
METHODS:Thirty-three patients (33 eyes) with chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis who underwent canalicular intubation combined ext-DCR were retrospective analyzed. The silicon tube was indwelt for 6mo. All cases were re-examined 1wk;1, 3, 6, 9mo post-operation, flow of tears, pus excretion and lacrimal duct clearance were observed.
RESULTS: Clear lacrimal duct ratio was 100% in all cases during 1wk~6mo post-operation; Silicon tube was removed 6mo post-operation, 3mo after tube removal, rechecking reported 32 cases with clear lacrimal duct (97%) and 1 case with resistant duct (3%). Two cases ( 6%) with minor lacerations, no other complications were observed.
CONCLUSlON: Canalicular intubation combined ext-DCR is an effective treatment for chronic dacryocystitis and upper lacrimal duct stenosis.

Objective To explore the value of hysteroscopy in diagnostic curettage, the incidence of complications and preventive measures in senile women. Methods One hundred and thirteen senile patients who underwent hysteroscopy from January 2002 to December 2007 were recruited in the study, and one hundred and fifty-seven non senile patients were selected as control group. All the patients were operated with diagnostic curettage and hysteroseopy. The success rate of hysteroscopy operation, the incidence of complications and control effect were recorded and compared between two groups. Results The success rate of hysteroscopy operation was 88. 5% (100/113) in the senile group and 100% (157/157) in the non senile group, and there was significant differenee(P <0. 01). The incidence of complications was higher in the senile women group than that in the non senile women group (P< 0. 01). In senile group, the accuracy of diagnostic curettage and hysteroscopy was higher than diagnostic curettage alone, and the success rate was 95.5% (64/67)in estrogen group and 69.6%(32/46) in blank control group (P<0. 01) ,which indicated that estrogen was positively related with the success rate of operation. Compared with misoprostol, estradiol-pretreatment operation was safer and had higher success rate. Conclusions It is safe and feasible to perform hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage for older women, though it has higher incidence of complications and lower success rate compared with non senile women. Hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage are more accurate than diagnostic curettage alone, and it is a good choice to apply estradiol before operation.
