1.Assessment methods of visual field defects of patients with glaucoma
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(2):187-192
Glaucoma is a common eye disease which may cause irreversible blindness.This ocular degenerative disease affects retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and eventually causes optic nerve dysfunction by way of axonal loss.Patients with glaucoma may show characteristic changes of optic disc,damages of visual field and impairment of vision.Detection and evaluation of the impairment of visual field in patients with glaucoma are essential for the diagnosis and estimation of progression of this disease.Numerous techniques have been developed to detect field progression,but no standard has been widely accepted.Assessment Methods including visual field indices,glaucoma hemifield test (GHT),Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS),Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial (EMGT),Collaborative Initial Glaucoma Treatment Study(CIGTS),as well as the strength and limitation of each method were reviewed in this article in order to find out suitable ways to evaluate visual field defects in patients with glaucoma in clinical works and researches.

5.Current researches on the circadian rhythm of patients with glaucoma
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2013;(3):303-306
Like other mammals,human has obvious circadian rhythm,and light is recognized as the principal circadian synchronizer.Rod/cone photoreceptors of the outer retina and the melanopsin-containing retinal ganglion cells(mcRGCs) of the inner retina mediate non-image forming visual responses including entrainment of the circadian clock to the ambient light,the pupillary light reflex (PLR),and light modulation of activity by means of a set of mcRGCs projecting to the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN)through retinohypothalamic tract (RHT).Glaucoma is a group of diseases which cause degenerative changes and loss of RGCs including mcRGCs,so the circadian rhythm of patients with glaucoma will be interrupted.The progress in the study on the effect of glaucoma and experimental hypertension on circadian rhythm was reviewed.

8.Research progress on the relationship between FOXM1 and neo-plasm metabolism
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;42(22):1108-1111
FOXM1 is a member of the FOX family of transcription factors and has been confirmed to participate in cell prolifera-tion and cell cycle progress. FOXM1 has been reported to play an important role in more than 20 types of human neoplasms, and its up-regulation promotes tumor cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis, chemotherapy drug resistance, and resistance to apoptosis. In recent years, various studies have shown that FOXM1 also plays an important role in tumor metabolism. The metabolism of cancer cells deter-mines the growth and survival of cancer, and metabolic alteration is a key feature of tumor cells. The connection between metabolic ab-normalities and tumorigenesis has been reported. The O-linkedβ-N-acetylglucosamine transferase regulates the expression of FOXM1, which helps tumor cells survive without damage caused by oxidative stress. This review aims to summarize the known relationships of FOXM1 and tumor cell metabolism, as well as its role in the potential pathways of tumor metabolism.
9.Protective effect of remifentanil precondition on myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats
Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 1994;0(06):-
Objective To study the effect of remifentanil precondition on myocardium against ischemia/ reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods Fifty male SD rats weighing 300-350 g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 5% pentobarbital 40 mg?kg-1, tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated. Right carotid artery and jugular vein were cannulated for BP monitoring and drug administration. ECG, BP and HR were monitored continuously. The chest was opened and heart exposed via a left thoracotomy. A 6-0 prolene suture was placed around the left coronary artery and a snare was made. The coronary artery was occluded by tightening the snare. Myocardial ischemia was confirmed by the appearance of a regional cyanosis of myocardium, decrease in BP and ST-T changes on ECG. After the surgical procedure a 15-minute stabilization period was allowed. The animals were then randomly divided into 3 groups: Ⅰ control group (CON, n = 9) ; Ⅱ ischemic preconditioning group (IPC, n = 9) and Ⅲ remifentanil preconditioning group which was further divided into 5 subgroups according to the dose of remifentanil (RPC) . In control group the hearts were subjected to 30 min ischemia followed by 120 min reperfusion (I/R). In IPC group the hearts were subjected to 3 episodes of 5 min ischemia in succession at 5 min interval for reperfusion before I/R. In RPC group the animals received 3 periods of 5 min remifentanil infusion at 0.2 (RPC1 , n = 5), 0.6 (RPC2,n = 6), 2 (RPC3 ,n = 8), 6 (RPC4 ,n = 7) or 20 (RPC5 ,n = 6) ?g?kg-1?min-1 at 5 min interval before I/R. MAP, HR and RPP (SP?HR) were recorded before and after I/R. Infarct size (IS) and the area at risk (AAR) were determined by triphenyltetrazolium staining. Results MAP was significantly lower at the end of 30 min ischemia in RPC2, RPC3, RPC4 and RPC5 subgroups than in control group. There was no significant difference in MAP, HR and RPP at the end of 120 min reperfusion among the 3 groups. The infarct size was significantly smaller in IPC and RPC groups than in control group. RPC at 6 ?g?kg-1?min-1 provided best protective effect. The sigmoidal equation of the dose-effect curve was Y = 15.18 + 17.76/ [1 + 10(-2.57-X)]. ED50, was 2.689 ?g?kg-1?min-1.Conclusion Remifentanil and IPC have similar protective effect on the heart against I/R injury.
