AIM: To study the curative effect for patients with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber after phacoemulsification.METHODS: Totally 38 patients (38 eyes) with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber were selected and divided into two groups according to the depth of the anterior chamber, as mild shallow anterior chamber group (2-2.5mm) 23 eyes, high risk shallow anterior chamber group (<2.0mm) 15 eyes.Thirty-eight patients (38 eyes) with age related cataract with normal anterior chamber were as control group at the same period.All the patients received the operations by the same doctor and were followed up for 3mo.The observed items included visual acuity before and after operations, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, corneal endothelial cell density and complications.RESULTS: There were no significant difference on visual acuity, intraocular pressure and corneal endothelial cell density between the two groups before operations (P>0.05).The visual acuity improved significantly after operation in both groups (P<0.05).Intraocular pressure after operation decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.05).Anterior chamber depth increased significantly after operation in both groups (P<0.05).Corneal endothelial cell density decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.05).There were no significant difference on anterior chamber depth, intraocular pressure and corneal endothelial cell density between the two groups at different time point after operations (P>0.05).Posterior capsular rupture occurred in shallow anterior chamber group in 1 eye, suspensory ligament rupture in 1 eye.Posterior capsular rupture and suspensory ligament rupture occurred none in normal anterior chamber group.Postoperative corneal edema occurred in 10 eyes (26%) in shallow anterior chamber group, which occurred in 3 eyes (8%) in normal anterior chamber group.The difference on the incidence was significant (P <0.05).CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification should be taken timely for patients with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber.The postoperative visual acuity can be improved and the anterior chamber depth can increase.The operation is safe and effective for those patients.

The development of proteomic technique has sparked new focus on novel protein markers for many diseases including cancer. Urine is one of the most useful biofluids for routine testing to provide an ideal resource for the discovery of novel biomarkers, with the advantage over tissue biopsy samples due to the ease and the less invasive nature of urinary collection. This review summarizes urinary protein tumor markers found in prostate cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer that have shown potential for urogenital and non-urogenital cancer, so as to provide reference on high sensitive and high specific urinary protein tumor markers for early prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Objective To investigate the pathogenesis of avascular necrosis of the femoral head(ANFH) and to observe the effects of uhrashortwave diathermy treatment of ANFH through animal experiments.Methods A total of 30 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into three groups:a control group,a model group,and a diathermy group.All the groups were injected with horse serum and methylprednisolone to induce ANFH.The path- ological effects were observed.Results The amount of osteoblast in the model group was significantly less than in the control group,while in the diathermy group it was significantly increased compared with the control group.The a- mount of osteoclast in the model and diathermy groups was significantly higher than in the control group,and in the diathermy group it was significantly more than in the model group.The thickness of femoral head cartilage in the mo- del and diathermy groups was reduced compared with the control group,while it was thicker in the model group than in the diathermy group.The empty cartilage cell lacunae ratios of the model and diathermy groups were significantly higher than for the control group,and the diathermy group showed significant degradation compared to the model group.The density of blood vessels under the cartilage in the model group was significantly less compared with the control group,while in the diathermy group it was significantly increased compared with the control group.The width of bone trabeculae in the model and diathermy groups was significantly less compared with the control group,while they were significantly wider in the diathermy group compared with the model group.The diameters of fat cells in the model and diathermy groups were increased compared with the control group,while they were significantly smaller in the dia- thermy group compared with the model group.The adipocyte area rates in the model and diathermy groups were signifi- cantly elevated compared with the control group,and rates in the model group were significantly elevated compared with the diathermy group.Conclusion Ultrashortwave diathermy is an effective treatment for early stage ANFH.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the salvage therapy for a child with refractory and ( or) repeatedly-relapsed Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

METHODData of a patient with Langerhans cell histiocytosis whose disease relapsed repeatedly treated with cladribine was collected and analyzed and the related literature was reviewed.

RESULTThe initial symptoms developed 3 months after his birth, multiple systems (skin, skeleton, lung, liver) were involved; he was sequentially treated with LCH-III-Group I, JLSG-96, DAL-HX90 chemotherapeutic regimens. The patient got relapses for more than 3 times, but the disease got completely controlled after being treated with cladribine when the patient was 6 years old. The dosage was 10 mg/(m2 · d) for 4 days, and one course lasted for 28 days, the third to fifth courses of treatment used Arac in combination, the whole treating time lasted for 5 months. The patient remained in persistent remission for 8 months since discontinuation of treatment. "Langerhans cell histiocytosis" "refractory" "cladribine" were used as the key words to search in the data bases CNKI, Wanfangdata and Pubmed, 11 articles were picked. According to the literature, the effective rate of cladribine in treatment of repeatedly relapsing Langerhans cell histiocytosis was 44%-100%, with a good response of 22%-86%, the dose was 5-13 mg/(m2 · d). The main side effects were hematological system damages and infection.

CONCLUSIONThe effect of commonly used chemotherapeutic regimens is limited for children with refractory and (or) repeatedly-relapsed Langerhans cell histiocytosis and cladribine can be used as an alternative therapeutic option of the salvage therapy.

OBJECTIVETo study the anti-immune inflammation efficacy and toxicity of Tripterygium wilfordii decoction, in order to provide experimental basis for studies on its "efficacy-toxicity" correlation.

METHODThe delayed hypersensitivity model was established by dinitrofluorobenzene in mice. Different doses of T. wilfordii decoction was administered for 5 consecutive days. The ear swelling inhibition ratio and the toxic action were observed. After the final administration, the biochemical indexes of PGE2, TNF-α, IL-2, ALT, AST, PA, TBA, TBIL in serum were detected, and the visceral indexes of heart, liver, spleen and kidney were measured.

RESULTThe DNFB-induced ear swelling could be notably inhibited by multiple oral administration of T. wilfordii decoction, with the ED50 and its 95% confidence limit of 0.34 (0.21-0.42) g x kg(-1). The contents of PGE2, TNF-α, IL-2 in serum decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The activities of serum AST, ALT, TBA, TBIL and the PA content reduced.

CONCLUSIONT. wilfordii decoction shows a significant anti-immune inflammation efficacy within the dosage range between 0.59 and 2.34 g x kg(-1) in a dose-dependent manner. With a certain hepatotoxicity, high dose (2.34-4.68 g x kg(-1)) of T. wilfordii decoction can cause substantial liver injury, with a dose dependence in liver function index. Therefore, the efficacy and toxicity of T. wilfordii is dose dependent, which provides reference for preventing adverse drug reactions in clinic and developing early-warning schemes and ensure the clinical medication safety of T. wilfordii.

OBJECTIVE To construct a prokaryotic expression plasmid encoding HPV16E7-HSP70 fusion gene for further study on the immunity of HPV16E7- HSP70 fusion protein against laryngeal carcinoma. METHODS HPV16E7 was PCR-amplified,digested by NheI and SacI,and ligated into pET28a. HSP70 was cloned into pGEMTeasy,then recut from the vector by SalI and NotI and ligated into pET28a-HPV16E7. PCR amplification, restrict enzyme digestion, DNA sequencing, IPTG induction and Western Blot were used to identify the recombinant plasmid. RESULTS Double digestion and PCR amplification of the recombinant plas- mid have shown that the size of the inserted fragment is as expected. Sequence analysis has demonstrated that the inserted fragment encodes for the HPV16E7- HSP70 fusion gene. IPTG induction and Western Blot have shown that the fusion protein is expressed suc- cessfully in the prokaryotic expression plasmid. CONCLUSION The recombinant prokaryotic expression plasmid pET28a-HPV16E7-HSP70 has been con- structed successfully.
