Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of scleral buckling procedure on old retinal detachment. Methods The clinical data of 42 patients (46 eyes), including 24 males (27 eyes) and 18 females (19 eyes), with old retinal detachment treated by scleral buckling procedure in our department were retrospectively reviewed. The duration of the disease ranged from 1 month to 2 years. All the patients were with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and combined with mainly predominantly-subretinal proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) (stage C), including stage C1 of PVR in 16 eyes (34.8%), stage C2 in 19 eyes (41.3%), and stage C3 in 11 eyes (23.9%). Scleral buckling was performed on 13 eyes (283%) and cerclage combined buckling on 33 eyes (71.7%). Sterile air was injected into 36 eyes (78.3%) during the operation, and C3F8 was introvitreal injected into 7 eyes (15.2%) after the operation. Results The follow-up duration was from 6 months to 1 year (mean 7.3 months). Retina was completely reattached in 31 eyes (67.4%), and was alleviated obviously in 12 eyes (26.1%). The subretinal fluid increased after the operation with un-reattached retina and vitrectomy was performed in 2 eyes. One eye underwent vitrectomy due to the development of PVR. After the first operation, the curative ratio of retinal detachment was 67.4%, and effective ratio (cure and alleviation) was 93.5%. The visual acuity improved in 28 eyes (60.9%), kept no change in 11 eyes (23.9%), and decreased in 7 eyes (15.2%). Conclusion Reattachment of retina and improvement of visual acuity can be achieved in some degree in some patients with old retinal detachment who undergo simple scleral buckling procedure without vitrectomy.

Glucose-6-Phosphatase (G6Pase) was regarded as a marker enzyme of the endoplasmic reticulum in a number of different cells. The purpose of this report is to study the localization of G6Pase activity in the rat left ventricular myocardial cells. G6Pase activity was found in the lumen of the nuclear envelope, the sarcoplasmic reticulum(SR) and the subsarcolemmal cisterns. The SR tubules between the adjacent myofibrils displayed characteristic distribution on their longitudinal profiles, as a curtain-like network, the tubules appeared to be tight network facing A-band, whereas tubules formed large polygonal meshes facing I-band. It is thought that the SR tubules facing A- and I-bands, respectively, represented an adaptation of SR to the selective shortening of the myofibrils at the I-band during contraction.

Left ventricular myocardial hypertrophy was produced in the rats by ligation of the abdominal aorta below the diaphragm for seven weeks.Ultrastructurally, it was observed that the nucleus and nucleolus were enlarged, and the density of the chromatin of the hypertrophied myocardial cells was decreased. Free ribosomes and endoplasmic reticulum were increased. Golgi apparatus was well developed and was increased in number.Cytochemically, G6Pase activity was localized in the lumen of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, nuclear envelope and subsarcolemmal cisterns, and it was also positive in the regenerative rough endoplasmic reticulum. TPPase activity appeared in the Golgi apparatus, and it was especially prominent in the Golgi apparatus of the hypertrophied cells.These findings suggest that the protein synthetic activity was increased in the hypertrophied myocardial cells.

In order to derive dynamic pulse rate variability (DPRV) signal from dynamic pulse signal in real time, a method for extracting DPRV signal was proposed and a portable mobile monitoring system was designed. The system consists of a front end for collecting and wireless sending pulse signal and a mobile terminal. The proposed method is employed to extract DPRV from dynamic pulse signal in mobile terminal, and the DPRV signal is analyzed both in the time domain and the frequency domain and also with non-linear method in real time. The results show that the proposed method can accurately derive DPRV signal in real time, the system can be used for processing and analyzing DPRV signal in real time.

Objective:To discuss the safety and curative effect of transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate(TUKEP) in the treatment of large-volume prostate hyperplasia.Methods:From October 2015 to April 2017, the clinical data of 126 patients with large-volume prostate hyperplasia(weight of prostate>80 g) who admitted to Yuncheng Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Different enucleation methods were used according to weight of prostate: ball enucleation for 80~120 g prostate; divided enucleation for more than 120 g prostate.The clinical data were analyzed and summarized.Results:All 126 patients completed operation successfully.The mean enucleation time, cutting time upon harvesting, intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative mean weight of prostate removed of the 126 patients were (19.4±2.4)min, (61.9±16.7)min, (65.3±47.5)mL and (104.5±23.1)g, respectively.Five cases of them had capsule perforation during operation and indwelling catheter for one week after operation, and unobstructed micturition was recovered after removing the urinary catheter, with no repeated hemorrhage or urinary tract infection.Seven cases received intra-operative blood transfusion, with no transurethral resection syndrome(TURS) during and after operation.These patients were followed up for 1~6 months, 23 cases lost to follow up and 14 cases suffered from temporary urinary incontinence.They received health education and levator ani training and were able to completely control urination during follow-up.The IPSS score, QOL score, Qmax and PVR of the patients after operation were (7.6±1.4)points, (1.7±0.6)points, (20.2±3.1)mL/s and (15.0±9.3)mL, respectively, which showed statistically significant differences compared with before operation( t=15.712, 18.331, -21.382 and 16.380, all P<0.001). All of these indicators were obviously improved than before operation, but there was no statistically significant difference in normal ejaculation before and after operation( P=0.252). Conclusion:TUKEP can radically remove prostate tissue and is an effective and safe surgical method in the treatment of large-volume prostate hyperplasia.

In November 2019, we received and treated a patient with MTSCC of the left kidney. The tumor was located at the upper pole of the left kidney, with a size of 23.3 cm×18.0 cm×21.8 cm. She underwent transperitoneal radical nephrectomy. There was no local recurrence or distant metastasis during the follow-up of 3 years and 2 months. MTSCC of the kidney is a rare subtype of renal carcinoma, with slower disease progression, a clear and smooth rim, and fewer invasion or metastasis. Its final diagnosis should depend on pathology examination. Surgical treatment is the only effective intervention for this disease at present.

Objective To investigate the effect of total alkaloids of Rhizoma Corydalis(TAC)on the expression of silencing information regulator 1(Sirt1)/tumor suppressor P53 protein signaling pathway-related proteins in the hippocampus of rats with chronic cerebral ischemia(CCH),and to explore its mechanism.Methods The rats were randomly divided into Sham operation group,model group,TAC high-dose group(14 mg/kg)and TAC low-dose group(7 mg/kg),with 6 rats in each group.A modified bilateral common carotid artery permanent occlusion method(BCCAO)was used to establish a rat model of CCH,and only bilateral common carotid arteries were separated in the Sham group.After the modeling was completed,each group was given the corresponding drug or isotonic saline by gavage,once a day,and the treatment lasted for 14 days.Hematoxycin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the hippocampus of rats,in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridinetriphate-biotin nick end labeling assay(TUNEL)was used to detect neuronal apoptosis,and Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect expression of Sirt1,P53,P53 positive apoptosis regulator(PUMA),B-cell lymphocytoma-2(Bcl-2)protein,Bcl-2-related X protein(BAX),respectively in the hippocampus of rats.Results(1)There were significant differences in the number of apoptotic cells and apoptosis rate among the four groups(F-values were 71.417 and 76.835,respectively,both P＜0.01).There were statistically significant differences in the mean integral optical density values of Sirt1,P53,PUMA,BAX and Bcl-2 protein positive expression areas among the four groups(F-values were 1 178.390,42.465,867.413,110.656 and 131.801,all P＜0.01).There were significant differences in the relative expression levels of Sirt1,P53,PUMA,BAX and Bcl-2 among the four groups(F-values were 9.497,11.863,58.552,186.855 and 12.466,all P＜0.01).(2)Compared with the Sham operation group,the neuronal arrangement of brain tissue in the hippocampus of the model group was disordered,the nuclear consolidation increased,and the glial cells and inflammatory cells increased significantly,and the number and apoptosis rate of neurons in the hippocampus of the model group increased significantly(respectively[10.8±1.5]cells vs.[2.0±0.9]cells and[35.5±4.5]％vs.[6.2±2.6]％;both P＜0.05),and the average integral optical density values of the positive expression areas of Sirt1 and Bcl-2 proteins decreased significantly(84.6±6.6 vs.244.6±4.9,138.5±6.7 vs.210.9±10.0;both P＜0.05),the average integral optical density values of P53,PUMA and BAX proteins were significantly increased(156.8±11.6 vs.93.5±11.6,151.3±3.3 vs.38.0±4.0,87.0±5.0 vs.38.4±5.5;all P＜0.05),the relative expression levels of Sirt1 and Bcl-2 proteins were significantly decreased(0.51±0.07 vs.0.74±0.07,0.36±0.03 vs.0.53±0.05;both P＜0.05),and the relative expression levels of P53,PUMA and BAX proteins were significantly increased(0.37±0.06 vs.0.21±0.02,0.62±0.06 vs.0.23±0.02,1.08±0.06 vs.0.45±0.03;all P＜0.05).(3)Compared with the model group,the hippocampal tissue structure of the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups was relatively compact and uniform,the neurons were neatly arranged,and the cell structure was relatively clear and complete,while the number of neuronal apoptotic cells and the apoptosis rate decreased significantly(respectively[3.8±0.7]cells vs.[6.2±1.2]cells,[12.4±2.8]％vs.[20.2±3.9]％;both P＜0.05),and the average integrated optical density values of the positive expression areas of Sirt1 and Bcl-2 proteins(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:Sirt1 150.0±4.8,131.3±1.3,and Bcl-2 207.1±7.4,169.5±3.9,respectively)were significantly increased(both P＜0.05),the average integral optical density values of P53,PUMA and BAX proteins were significantly decreased(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:P53 105.9±8.8,115.5±9.0,and PUMA56.8±5.1,74.4±3.9,and BAX40.5±5.6,48.4±5.0,respectively,all P＜0.05),the relative expression levels of Bcl-2 protein(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:0.53±0.05,0.47±0.02,respectively)were significantly increased(P＜0.05),the relative expression levels of P53(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:0.21±0.02,0.24±0.04,respectively),PUMA(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:0.36±0.02,0.28±0.04,respectively)and BAX proteins(the high-dose and low-dose TAC groups:0.52±0.02,0.54±0.03,respectively)were significantly decreased(all P＜0.05),the relative expression level of Sirt1 protein in the TAC high-dose group was significantly decreased(0.71±0.05,P＜0.05),and the relative expression level of Sirt1 protein in the TAC low-dose group was not statistically significant(0.52±0.08,P＞0.05).Conclusion TAC can alleviate neuronal damage and reduce the apoptosis rate of neurons in the hippocampus of CCH rats,and the mechanism may be related to the activation of Sirt1/P53 pathway,inhibition of P53 protein activity,and thus the expression level of apoptosis-related proteins in the downstream of TAC.
