Objective To observe the effect of cyanin on the expression of L-glutamate/ L-aspartate transporter (GLAST) in high glucose cultured retina Müller cells. Methods The retinal tissue of SpragueDawley (SD) rats was collected at postnatal 10 day, and Müller cells were isolated and cultured according to literature. The Müller ceils (2nd-4th generations) were treated with five different medium as normal group (group A), high glucose control group (group B), high glucose+30 μmol/L cyanin group (group C), high glucose+60 μmol/L cyanin group (group D) and high glucose+100 μmol/L cyanin group (group E). Cell relative survival rates (A value) were measured by MTT assay at 570 nm. The GLAST protein expression in M011er cells was observed by Western blot. Results MTT assay showed that the A value of the five group were 0. 450 8±0. 020 4, 0. 270 1±0. 031 4, 0. 332 0±0. 023 2, 0. 428 3±0. 017 2, 0. 361 9±0. 027 0,the cell relative survival rate were 100. 0%, 59. 9%, 73.6%, 95%, 80.3% respectively. The A value of group C, D, E were significantly higher than that of group B (F=32.25, P<0.05), the A value of group D were significantly higher than that of group C and E (F=21.07, P<0. 05). Western blot showed that the GLAST protein expression of group B was lower than that of group A (t=5.25, P<0. 05) ; there was no obvious changes of GLAST protein expression in group A, C, D and E (F= 2. 979, P>0.05).Conclusion Cyanin can rescue high glucose-induced GLAST reduction.

Objective To evaluate the safety of laparoscopic cholecystectomy's in aged patients in plateau region.Method From January 2005 to June 2006,a total of 64 local aged gallbladder disease patients were included,in which 32 cases received open cholecystectomy(OC)and 32 cases received laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Postoperative cardiopulmonary complications were compared.Results In the LC group,1 case of acute pneumonedema,1 case of chronic right heart failure and 1 case of pulmonary infection occurred;and 3 cases of left heart failure accompanied with pneumonedema,2 cases of right heart failure and 5 cases of pulmonary infection occurred in the OC group.The incidence of cardiopulmonary complications of the LC group was significantly lower than that of the OC group(9% vs 31%,?2=4.730,P=0.030).Conclusions In the circumstances of high altitude,low atmospheric pressure and low oxygen partial pressure,LC is safer than OC for aged patients in regard to postoperative complications.

Objective To estimate the diagnostic value of dual-energy CT in gouty arthritis.Methods English and Chinese litera-tures publicated before May 2014 were searched in PubMed,Embase,Cochrane and Wanfang database.Available literatures were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criterias.Sensitivity,specificity with 95% confidence interval (95% CI)was pooled with bivariate random-effects model.Hierarchical weighted symmetric summary receiver-operating curve (HSROC)was also used in estimating.Meta-regression and sensitivity analysis were used to explore the potential sources of heterogeneity.Results Nine studies were included in the analysis.The pooled sensitivity,specificity and 95% CI were 92%(84-96%)and 88%(83-92%)respectively, area under the HSROC curve was 0.91 (0.88-0.93).There was substantial heterogeneity between studies(I 2 =85%).Conclusion Dual-energy CT is accuracy in diagnosing gouty arthritis.The sources of heterogeneity was not been explored.

This study compared the efficacy of non-penetrating trabecular surgery and trabeculectomy for the treatment of open angle glaucoma. We searched the Cochrane Library, PUBMED (1966 to 2009), Embase (1980 to 2009) and CMB-disk (1979 to 2009) for the randomized clinical trials (RCT) concerning the two treatment strategies. The reports, including the papers listed in bibliographies, were evaluated against a set of quality criteria and the RCTs that satisfied the criteria were selected and subjected to Meta analysis by employing the Cochrane Collaboration's RevMan 4.5 software package. A total of nine RCTs were included in the study. The analyses of the reports showed that, 12 months after surgery, there was significant difference in the reduction of interocular pressure (IOP) between non-penetrating trabecular surgery and trabeculectomy (Z=6.05 P<0.00001). There also existed statistically significant difference in the reduction of IOP at the censored time between the two procedures (Z=4.92, P<0.00001). Difference in the success rate was also found between the two surgeries (Z=3.82, P=0.0001). It is concluded that, compared with the non-penetrating trabeculectomy, the traditional trabeculectomy could reduce IOP more and had higher success rate while the non-penetrating trabecular surgery is associated with lower postoperative complications.
