· AIM: To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injection of plasmin, hyaluronidase, or the combination of the two in inducing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD).· METHODS: 15 mini-type pigs were assigned to three groups (Group A, B and C), 5 in each group. One eye of each pig was intravitreally injected with the studying agent,and the fellow eye was used as control. Group A received a vitreous injection of hyaluronidase 50U (0.1mL); group B received plasmin 0.5U (0.1mL); group C received plasmin 0.5U (0.05mL) combined with hyaluronidase 50U (0.05mL). The fellow eyes in each group were injected with 0.1mL balanced salt solution (BSS). All the pigs were examined with slit-lamp biomicroscope, direct and indirect ophthalmoscope, B-scan and electroretinograph (ERG). After 7 days, the animals were killed and the eyes were enucleated and examined with light microscope, transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope.· RESULTS: B-scan examination showed that one eye of Group A and two eyes of Group B had partial PVD at 1st day after injection and one eye of Group C at 1 hour after injection. On the 7th day, B-scan, light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that all the eyes of Group A and Group B had partial PVD, while none of the control eyes had PVD. Rank sum test for scanning electron microscopy results of all the groups showed P ＜0.005.Furthermore, the comparisons between every two groups were made. The results of analyses were as follows: P＞0.05 between the drug injected eyes of Group A and Group B, P＜0.05 between Group B and Group C, Group A and Group C.The b-wave and a-wave amplitudes of ERG showed no significant difference either between preinjection and postinjection in all groups or between the drug injected eyes and the control eyes in each group. Light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy revealed no damage to the retinal structure.· CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection of hyaluronidase 50U or plasmin 0.5U or their combination can produce PVD effectively and quickly without retinal functional or structural toxicity. The combination of the two proteases was proved to be synergetic.

Objective To summarize the experience of long-term survival of the patients under- going orthotopic heart transplantation.Methods Heart transplantation was performed on 2 cases of dilated cardiomyopathy and one case of Keshan disease.Before operation,pulmonary artery pressure was 42-53 mm Hg(5.60-7.07 kPa)and pulmonary vascular resistance 5.6-7.0 wood.The body weight difference between donors and receptors was 10%-15%.There were three same antigens in HLA zygosity experiment for all of three patients.Two cases were subjected to standard heart trans- plantation and one case to whole heart transplantation.All the atriums and big vessels were sutured by evting suture method.Cyclosporin A,azathioprine and corticosteroid were used to prevent patients from rejection.Results Survival time of 3 patients was 13 years and 10 months,12 years and 10 years and 3 months.Heart functions of three patients were NYHAⅠand all of 3 patients are living and working commonly.Six,3 and 1 rejection(s)occurred in 3 patients respectively and cured by appro- priate treatment.Electrocardiogram revealed that case 1 and case 2 had two P waves and case 3 sinus rhythm.Ultrasonic cardiogram showed that in case 1 and case 2,the left and right atriums were enlarged and tricuspid valve had slight backstreaming,and in case 3,all of the cardiac chambers were normal and had no backstreaming of tricuspid valve and mitral valve.No abnormal findings were found in 3 cases by 4-9 times of coronary arteriongraphy.Conclusion The important factors for the patients' long-term survival after heart transplantation include the choice of appropriate donors and acceptors, protection of donors' hearts,selection of appropriate operations and suture methods,rational use of im- munosuppressants and prevention of cardiac allograft vasculopathy.

Objective The aim of this paper is to know about the pollution of microcystin-LR(MC-LR)in Fenhe First reservoir and Fenhe Second reservoir in Taiyuan and provide reference for making the policy of prevention microcystin-LR pollution.Methods During the low water period(May,2005)and common period(Oct,2005),5 liter water was sampled in the entrance,the center and the exit in Fenhe First reservoir and Fenhe Second reservoir respectively.The concentrations of MC-LR in two reservoirs were determined by the high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).Results The average concentration (0.875 ?g/L)of MC-LR in low water period was 3 time of that(0.283 ?g/L)in common period in Fenhe First reservoir.The average concentration(0.815 ?g/L)of MC-LR in low water period was 17 time of that(0.048 ?g/L)in common period in Fenhe Second reservoir.The level of MC-LR in the entrance was the highest,that in the exit was the lowest,that in the center was middle. The concentration of MC-LR of the entrance in low water period was more than the MC-LR limit(1 ?g/L)in Life drinking water hygienic guide(2001).Conclusion MC-LR pollution has been found in Fenhe First reservoir and Fenhe Second reservoir and the pollution is serious in low water period.

Objective To study the method and therapeutic results of intra-arterial interventional treatment (selective intra-arterial fibrinolysis) in acute cerebral infarction(ACl).Methods A total of 106 patients with ACI are divided into two groups:selective intra-arterial fibrinolytic therapy group(SIAF),intra-venously thrombolysis group(IVF);SIAF is selective entered into the obliterative artery with improved Seldinger's technich,pumped urokinase(UK) in a dose of 500 000 i.u.in NS.60ml within 40 minutes;arteriography is done all the time to know if the obliterative artery is unobstruct- ed,if it remains obstructe,then pumps 300 000 i.u.of UK,as long as it unobstructed,the treatment is finished at once; IVF is injected 1000 000 i.u.of UK in NS.150 mL by intravenous drip within 40 minutes,others like SIAF.Results The artery is disobliteration after thrombolysis,48 patients in SIAF,30 patients in IVF,P

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the recent cluster outbreaks of imported malaria and explore the risks, challenges and countermeasures for dealing with such events during malaria post-elimination era of malaria, and to provide reference for effectively addressing the risks and consolidating the achievements of malaria elimination. Methods　The individual malaria case data from "The Information System for Infectious Disease Surveillance" and "The Information System For Parasitic Diseases Prevention And Control" were collected，and the diagnosis classification, infection source, time and space distribution of cases were analyzed. Results　From January 1 to August 11, 2022, a total of 429 malaria cases were reported nationwide, an 18.9% decrease compared to the same period last year (529 cases), all of which were imported cases. The overall weekly trend of the outbreak remained stable, but since Week 31 (July 25-31), there has been a significant increase in the number of cases, with a peak on August 5. From July 25 to August 11, 2022, a total of 162 malaria cases were reported nationwide, up 315.4% from 39 cases in the same period last year, accounting for 37.8% of the total cases up to August 11, 2022. The main source of imported infections was Guinea (95 cases, 58.6%), with most cases reported in Longgang District, Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province (30 cases), Shilin County, Kunming City, Yunnan Province (21 cases), Chaoyang District, Beijing (11 cases), and Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province (7 cases). Conclusions　Due to the concentration of returnees to China, several entry port cities simultaneously experienced cluster outbreaks of imported malaria, which brought immense pressure and challenges to local medical and health institutions. Health facilities at all levels need to maintain high vigilance and sensitivity, be well prepared, and avoid death and secondary transmission caused by imported cases.
