Bilateral sequential cataract surgery is very common in clinical,but the ophthalmologists often ignore how to choose the timing of operation and whether the first eye can be used to improve the intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation for the second one.Despite the refinements in IOL selection with the use of third-generation IOL formulas,5％ of eyes still result in a postoperative refractive surprise of ± 1.00 D or more.This paper introduced the methods of using refraction error of the first eye to improve the IOL power calculation for the second eye,and the refractive error of the second eye can be improved by modifying the IOL power to correct up to 50％ of the error from the first eye in details.Because of the variation of the postoperative refractive surprise within a month,the interval of three to four weeks between two eyes cataract surgery is highly recommended.These conclusions may provide the advantageous guidance for us in the selection of IOL in bilateral cataract surgery.

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium in Chinese patients after thoracic surgery. METHODS: Thirteen patients were enrolled in the study and were given a single dose of 2.5 mg fondaparinux sodium via a subcutaneous injection. Plasma concentrations of fondaparinux sodium were measured throughout a 24 h period. The pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using WinNonlin software. RESULTS: The following pharmacokinetic parameters were derived; t1/2(7.92 ± 3.13) (4.21-15.89) h, tmax(2.52 ± 0.93) (1.38-4) h, p-1 (0.73 ± 0.18) (0.45-1.02) mg · L-1, AUClast(6. 56 ± 2.19) (3.07-9. 75)mg · h · L-1, Vz/F(3.54 ± 1.00) (2.24-5.73) L, CL/F(0.34 ± 0.14) (0.16-0.63) L · h-1, and MRTlast (6.98 ± 2.1) h. The pearson correlation coefficient, r was 0.7283(P = 0.005) between the serum creatinine(Scr) and mean residence time(MRTlast) of fondaparinux. CONCLUSION: The disposition of fondaparinux is highly variable in patients. A statistical significant correlation between Scr and MRTlast of fondaparinux was observed. Fondaparinux sodium administered by intravenous injection is well tolerated in patients.

The microarray technology used in biological and medical research provides a new idea for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. To find different types of cancer and to classify the cancer samples accurately, we propose a new cluster ensemble framework Dual Neural Gas Cluster Ensemble (DNGCE), which is based on neural gas algorithm, to discover the underlying structure of noisy cancer gene expression profiles. This framework DNGCE applies the neural gas algorithm to perform clustering not only on the sample dimension, but also on the attribute dimension. It also adopts the normalized cut algorithm to partition off the consensus matrix constructed from multiple clustering solutions. We obtained the final accurate results. Experiments on cancer gene expression profiles illustrated that the proposed approach could achieve good performance, as it outperforms the single clustering algorithms and most of the existing approaches in the process of clustering gene expression profiles.

Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system is a seldom disease in clinical practice. Its most common clinical manifestations are hearing loss and ataxia. It is a hemosiderin deposition in the surface of the brain and spinal cord after chronic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Magnetic resonance imaging can make the diagnosis. However, further research and clinical verification are needed.

Hypersensitivity reactions ( HSRs) are the serious problems of taxanes in the clinical appli- cation. These reactions range in severity from mild flushing and itching to bronchospasm, dyspnea and signifi-cant alterations in blood pressure with loss of consciousness or not, and death in some rare cases. Nevertheless, HSRs are often reported only sporadically in clinical trials or as case reports. The vague or inconsistent termi-nology used to describe these reactions may reflect our poor understanding of their pathophysiology. This article will reviews the advancement of taxanes HSRs.

Objective To summarize the experiences of the diagnostic and therapeutiec approach of hepatic trauma.Methods Referencing to the literature of recent years,we retrospectively analyzed the clinieal data of 55 cases of liver trauma.Results Among the 55 cases.18 eases of stage Ⅰ～Ⅱ.1 5 cases of stage Ⅲ,17 eases of stage Ⅳ and 5 cases of stage V,Thirty-one cases received non-operative treatment.and 24 cases reeeived operative therapy.In non-operative treatment group,the cure rate was 100%.In operation Ireatmenl group the cure rate was 91.7%.Conclusions Focused abdominal sonography for trauma (FAST) and diagnostic peritoneal paraeentesis are the initial methods for diagnosis of liver trauma and are largely used nowadays.When the patient is hemodynamically stable,CT scan or simuhaneous contrast-enhanced scan are important to decide for conservative ur surgical treatment.Today.treatment of hepatic lesions takes in account mainly two aspects:hemodynamically stability and the mechanism for trauma(blunt or penetrating).Liver injmy score of patienlS is not as important as the hemodynamie status for determining conservative management.Nonoperative management under close continuous observation for the hemodynamically stable patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ and some eases of stage Ⅲ blunt hepatic injury has become the stamlard of care.The decision for surgical intervention should be given in time according to the variance of hemodynamically stability and the presence of trauma (blunt or penetrating).Some cases of stage Ⅲ and all cases of stage Ⅳ to Ⅴ hepatic injury shouht preferably undergo surgieal treatment.The effective preventive measures to decrease mortality in patients with severe hepatic trauma include early remedy to henmrhagie shock.effective hemostasis,complete abdominal drainage and prevention of pnstoperative enmplieations.

Lactoferrin has antitumoral activity. Lactoferrin exerts anti-carcinogenic effects via its ability to modulate host immunity, suppress proliferation, induce apoptosis, block cell cycle, inhibit angiogenesis, regulate carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes and sequester iron, etc. Safety and no toxicity of lactoferrin provide a new selection for cancer treatment.

Liposome-mediated nucleic acid delivery has been a focus recently, but in the course of delivering nucleic acid, some hurdles seriously limit the nucleic acid exerting treatment effect. This review refers to a series of problems such as low blood stability, reticuloendothelial system absorption, the lower targeting of liposome and the restriction of endosomal escape which are suffered in liposome-mediated nucleic acid delivery; and gives a detail introduction of strategies such as PEGylation, ligand modification, photochemical internalization, the application of degradation liposome and membrane-lytic peptide, to overcome those problems.

Objective To observe the clinical curative effect of chronic heart failure (CHF) treated by noninvasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV). Methods 48 cases of CHF were randomly assigned to conventional drug treatment under oxygen (control group, n = 24) and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV) under the conventional therapy group (observation group, n =24). The plasma N-brain natriuretic peptide( proN-BNP) and cardiac function changes in two groups before and after treatment were observed. Results The total effective rate 92% in observation group was significantly higher than 66% in control group ( x2 =3. 7851, P ＜ 0. 05 ) ; The plasma proNBNP、respiratory rate and heart rate after treatment in two groups were lower than before treatment(t = 2.787,2.815, 2. 856,2.789,2.804,2.840,all P＜0.01) ;The plasma proN-BNPand heart rate in observation group after treatment were lower than the control group(t =2.123,2.221,all P ＜0.05). Conclusion Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation could significantly improve heart function,reduce plasma proN-BNP and enharce curative effect.
