Objective To observe the effect of liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening,essence-tonifying and eyesight-improving herbal medicine for ametropic amblyopia(AA) in children.Methods AA children were randomized into 2 groups.The two groups received treatment of optometry and sight-enhancing device based on microcomputer.Meanwhile,group A(52 affected eyes in 29 patients) received oral use of Ximing Decoction with liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening,essence-tonifying and eyesight-improving actions,which is mainly composed of Radix Curcumae,Radix Pseudostellariae,Radix Panacis Quinquefolii,Fructus Aurantii Immaturus,Herba Agastaches,Flos Buddlejae,Nux Prinsepiae,Fructus Setariae Germinatus,Radix Ophiopogonis,Fructus Crataegi and Massa Medicata Fermentata.Group B(46 affected eyes in 28 patients) received oral use of levodopa additionally.Seven days constituted one treatment course.The treatment lasted 8 courses.Before and after treatment,corrected visual acuity(CVA) was observed.Results In group A,CVA of 13 eyes were improved,AA of 33 eyes cured,6 eyes ineffective,and the total effective rate was 88.46%.In group B,CVA of 10 eyes were improved,AA of 12 eyes cured,24 eyes ineffective,and the total effective rate was 47.83%.The effect in group A was superior to that in group B(P

Combining with advances in optogenetics and feedback control of physiological function, we have utilized self-made PPDP (preview, presentation, demonstration, promotion) teaching method to clarify how various physiological functions are regulated by the nervous system and carried out physiological innovation experiment activities. The innovative experiments aim to cultivate students' self-study capability, broaden their vision, enhance their interest in physiology, and finally promote the effect of physiological theory teaching. We herein summarize our practice of closed-loop control of innovative experimental teaching in optogenetics from the following four facets: education concept, students and teacher resources, teaching design, and teaching experience. This summary is trying to explore new experiences of promoting students' participation in teaching activities and improving the teaching quality of physiology.
