Objective: Our purpose was to observe the effect of epithelial scrape injury on corneal morphology. Methods: Twenty 4-week-old white rabbits were used. We scraped the corneal epithelia of the left eye of each rabbit (0.2 mm near the limbus of corneal were left in 10 eyes, in the remaining rabbits within 8 mm in the center). The right eyes were control group. We observed the healing of corneal protrusion with slit-lamp microscope, examined the corneal form with corneal topography, and measured the depth of anterior chamber and the corneal thickness with A-ultrasound. Results: The extensive epithelial scrape significantly increased the healing time. The corneal protrusion of experimental group and the depth of anterior chamber increased. The corneal thickness became thinner. Conclusion: The extensive epithelial injury can make cornea thinner, which results in the changes of corneal protrusion.

Objective To investigate the effects of nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) on the growth of a human malignant glioma cell line CHG 5 in vitro and in vivo . Methods Colorimetric MTT assay, flow cytometry, and light microscopy were used to investigate the proliferation in vitro , cell cycles, apoptosis of CHG 5 cells, and the growth of xenografted tumor in nude mice. Results NDGA significantly inhibited the proliferation of CHG 5 cells in vitro . Cells in G 0/G 1 phase increased, but cells in S, G 2/M phases decreased, and apoptotic cells increased significantly. After treatment of NDGA (50 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) at 5 d after the inoculation of tumor cells, the xenografted tumor volume reduced remarkably without causing significant toxic and side effects. Conclusion The inhibitory effect of NDGA on the growth of CHG 5 cells may be correlated with the regulation of cell cycles and induction of apoptosis.

Objective To study the influence of early intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering treatment on peri-he?matomal secondary neuronal injury and prognosis after acute intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods A randomised con?trolled trial consisting of 36 consecutive patients within 6 h of intracerebral hemorrhage onset were randomly assigned to intensive BP lowering group and guideline BP lowering group. All patients underwent MR spectroscopy at 72 h and were followed up 90 days. N Acetyl Aspartate/Creatine (NAA/Cr) and lactic acid wave around peri-hematomal at 72 h, neuro?logic function at early stage, and death and/or disability at 90d were compared between these two group. Results Spec?trum lines were obtained from thirty-one patients:14 from intensive BP lowing group and 17 from guideline BP lowering group. There was no significant difference in the percentage declines of NAA/Cr at 72 h between the two groups (13.3%± 4.2% vs. 11.9%± 2.8%, P = 0.308). There was no statistical differences either in neurologic function at 7 d or in death and/or disability at 90 d (P>0.05). Conclusions Early intensive BP-lowering treatment had no role on peri-hematomal secondary neuronal injury and prognosis after acute intracerebral hemorrhage. Further high-quality and large-scale ran?domised controlled trial are necessary to verify this result.

Objective: To establish a risk prediction model and scoring system in patients with side branch (SB) occlusion during coronary bifurcation intervention. Methods: A total of 7007 consecutive patients who received percutanenous coronary intervention (PCI) in our hospital from 2012-02 to 2012-07 were recruited and 1545 patients (with 1601 bifurcation lesions) treated by single stent technique or main vessel stenting ifrst strategy were selected for our study. According to weather SB occlusion occurred during operation, the lesions were divided into 2 groups: Non-SB occlusion group,n=1431 and SB occlusion group,n=114. The data set of the ifrst 1200/1601 lesions by time sequence, was used for establishing the risk model and scoring system, the data set of rest 401 lesions was used for model validation. Results: The modeling data set presented that the relationship between pre-operative main vessel plaque and the position of branch vessel, the main blood vessel pre-stenting TIMI grade, the stenosis degree of pre-operative bifurcation nucleus, the angle of pre-operative bifurcation and the ratio of pre-senting stenosis degree of branch diameter and pre-operative main vessel to branch vessel diameter were the independent risk factors for branch occlusion. The risk model ROC=0.80, 95% CI 0.75-0.85, Hosmer-Lemeshow HLP=1.00; the scoring system ROC=0.76, 95% CI 0.71-0.82, HLP=0.12. The validation data set ROC=0.81, 95% CI 0.73-0.89, HLP=0.77; the scoring system ROC=0.77, 95% CI 0.69-0.86, HLP=0.58. The quartile integration of both data sets indicated that the patients with the integration score ≥ 10 had the higher risk for SB occlusion than those with integration score < 10 during the operation,P<0.001. Conclusion: Our research developed a simple and user-friendly system, it may distinguish the patients with high risk of SB occlusion during bifurcation intervention by quantitative stratiifcation of coronary angiographic imaging.
