There was no incidence of complications such as posterior capsular rupture, residual silicone oil, corneal endothelial decompensation, hyphema, vitreous hemorrhage, intraocular lens dislocation, secondary glaucoma and ora serrata mutilation after operation in all patients.
CONCLUSlON: Micro - invision phacoemulsification combined with silicone oil removal from pars plana is an effective and safe method for eyes with cataract and silicone oil tamponade after vitrectomy.

Objective To investigate new cases of endemic cretinism in high-risk areas of Inner Mongolia, the prevalence of endemic goiter, the implementation of comprehensive measures, and to provide scientific basis for developing control strategies against iodine deficiency disorders (IDD). Methods In 2007 and 2008, a search for new cretin cases was conducted among children under the age of 10 in 11 historical serious epidemic cretinism prevalent areas of Songshan district, Keshiketeng qi, Kalaqin qi, Zhalaite qi, Zhuozi county,Liangcheng county, Qingshuihe county, Helin county, Dongsheng district, Zhungeer qi and Yinjinhuoluo qi. Three to 5 towns were selected in each qi(county, district) and 3 to 5 village primary schools were selected in each town.One hundred and twenty to 200 children aged 8 to 10 were selected in each school to inspect thyroid by B ultrasound and palpation and to test intelligence and urinary iodine. Two villages were selected in each town and 30 households were selected to determine urinary iodine of housewives and salt iodine. Results A total of 56 cases of suspected cases of endemic cretinism were found from the 11 counties but no case was confirmed. The goiter rate of children aged 8 to 10 was 5.2% (309/5922) by palpation and 4.3% (252/5922) by B-ultrasound. The median urinary iodine of children aged 8 to 10 was 241.5 μg/L, and urinary iodine was 100 to 300 μg/L, accounted 65.9%(3901/5920). Median urinary iodine of the 9 Qis(counties, districts) was in the range of 200 and 300μg/L.Higher than 5% of the 11 Qis(counties, districts) with urinary iodine lower than 50 μg/L was zero. Higher than 10% of the 11 Qis(counties, districts) with urinary iodine lower than 100 μg/L was 1. The median urinary iodine of housewives was 225.6 μg/L, and lower than 50 μg/L accounted for 2.2%(35/1597). Higher than 10% of the 11 Qis(counties, districts) with urinary iodine lower than 100 μg/L was 4. A total of 2109 households were investigated and 97.45%(2055/2109) of them ate iodized salt and 2.55%(54/2109) of them ate non-iodized salt. Conclusions In the 11 investigated counties, goiter rate of children has decreased to less than 10%, and no new cretin was found. It could be concluded that the fulfillment of prevention and control of IDD is effective. The iodine nutrition of children and women of childbearing age is in an adequate level. The coverage rate of iodized salt has maintained at a higher level, the sales network is sound, the salt price is reasonable and salt is easy to get and the children's intelligence is protected effectively. But, the health education about IDD is still weak, need to be reinforced.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of infliximab (IFX) in Crohn′s disease (CD) and its effects on mucosal healing and promoting fistula closure.Methods Between September 2007 and February 2011,relevant clinical data of CD patients treated with IFX in the Department of Gastroenterology,Ruijin Hospital were collected and the efficacy and safety of IFX were retrospectively analyzed.After IFX therapy,the efficacy evaluation included laboratory index,clinical efficacy,efficacy of fistula closure and mucosal healing.The data were analyzed using t test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test.Results A total of 22 patients were enrolled in this study,11 males and 11 females; the mean age was 29.3 years.The dosage of IFX was 5 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg at week 0,2,6to induce remission,and every 8 weeks on maintenance therapy.Of 22 patients,16 patients were active CD.One case dropped out.At week 14,of the remaining 15 cases,11 cases achieved clinical remission,two cases achieved clinically effective and two cases were ineffective.Crohn′s disease activity index (CDAI) (112±80) and ESR [(13±11) mm/1 h] of week 14 decreased compared with that of week 0 [(186±88),(21± 15) mm/1 h,P=0.04 and 0.007].Two cases of 10 patients with fistula dropped out as a result of ineffective,while eight cases had a partial response and six patients sustained response during the maintenance therapy,but no fistula closed and completely disappear.Seven patients reviewed by endoscopy after five times IFX therapy (24 weeks),after therapy the simple endoscopic score for Crohn′ s disease (SES-CD) ( 3.21 ± 2.89 ) decreased compared with that before treatment (5.86±3.02) (Z＝-2.38,P＝0.018).Eleven times of adverse events were found in nine patients,infusion reaction and respiratory tract infection were more common and no severe adverse effect was observed.Conclusions IFX can rapidly improve clinical symptoms and with good safety.The effects in mucosal healing and fistula closure may occur at early medication.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features and the efficacy of medium-and long-term immune suppression in the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD) in Chinese Han nationality.MethodsThe clinical data and diagnosis methods of 178 CD patients between 2003 and 2010 were analyzed.All patients received predinisone and immune suppression (azathioprine) treatment.The patients were followed up every 2 weeks.Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were reviewed every 4 weeks.CD activity index (CDAI) was scored every 3 to 6 months.ResultsThe peak age for onset of CD was between 18 to 30 years old,and the mean time from the appearance of symptoms to diagnosis was (8.3±3.7) months.About 34.8％ (62/178 cases) patients had corresponding complications at time of diagnosis due to the progress of the disease.The average dosage of azathioprine was (1.24±0.16) mg/kg,and the total withdrawal rate due to adverse effect was 15％ (25/167 cases).The surgical intervention rate was 15.1％ (22/146 cases) during long-term follow-up.ESR and CRP of patients decreased obviously and tended to normal after 3 months treatment.The CDAI score significantly decreased after 6 months treatment.Conclusions Most Chinese patients had a good tolerance of immune suppression and achieved better medium- and long-term clinical efficacy at the dosage lower than that recommended by European and United States guidelines.

Objective To evaluate the value of reducing radiation dose with ECG-pulsing and image quality in 64-row multi-alice CT coronary angiography.Methods Fifty-nine consecutive patients whose heart rates were less than 80 beat per minute and cardiac rhythm was regular were randomly divided into two groups from October 26, 2007 to March 12, 2008.Conventional technique of CT coronary angiography was employed in group 1, while ECG-pulsing technique was applied in group 2.CT dose index volume (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP) were obtained automatically, and then the corresponding effective dose (ED) were calculated.The quality scores were performed on obtained imaging by using double blind method.Student t-test was applied in the comparison of value of CTDIvol, value of ED and quality of imagiugbetween two groups.Results The value of CTDIvol was (70.0±1.1) and (39.0±2.7) mGy, the value of ED was (16.8±2.0) and (9.5±1.7) rosy in group 1 and group 2, respectively, which reached statistically significant differences between the groups(t=57.675,15.346 ,P <0.01, respectively). The quality scores of coronary images were 3.8±0.2 and 3.8±0.1 in the groups, which did not reach the statistical significance (t=-0.222, P 0.05).Conclusions The proper application of ECG-Pulsing technology in 64-slice spiral CT coronary angiography can reduce radiation dose significantly while having no influence on the quality of the imaging.

[ ABSTRACT] Interstitial cells of Cajal ( ICC) is the pacemaker in the gastrointestinal tract , which is closely as-sociated with the formation of slow wave and the regulation of gastrointestinal motility .As the pacemaker of gastrointestinal tract, the activation of pacing signal is triggered by the local calcium oscillation in the ICC .The change of calcium concen-tration can activate many relevant ion channels , such as NSCC, ANO1, VGCC, HCN channels and potassium channels , which can generate a large number of pacing current to form the slow wave and then propagated by the gap junction between the ICC networks and smooth muscle cells to make the peristalsis of gastrointestinal tract in autonomic rhythm .However, the mechanism of these ion channels in the pacemaker activity is still unclear , so we refer to make a review about the re-search progress on these pacemaker channels in this article to illuminate the mechanism of pacemaker activity in ICC .

Objective To investigate the clinical value of double contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (DCUS) in the macroscopic classification of rectal carcinoma. Methods Seventy-one patients with rectal carcinoma were examined by ultrasound after intrarectal infusion and intravenous bolus injection of SonoVue preoperatively. And three types were divided according to the shape of the tumor:protruding type, ulcerative type and invasive type. After surgery, DCUS and perfusion contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (PCUS) were compared with final pathologic results respectively, and the relationship between general tumor type and TN staging were analyzed.Results The accuracy of DCUS [88.7%(63/71) ] in macroscopic classification of rectal carcinoma was significantly higher than that of PCUS [73.2%(52/71) ](χ2=5.534,P<0.05). For the invasion depth into the intestinal wall, the protruding type was mainly in T1, T2 and T3 stages while ulcerative and invasive type in T2, T3 and T4 stages (χ2=12.322, P<0.05 ). For the stage of lymph node, the protruding type was mainly in N0 and N1 while ulcerative and invasive type in N1 and N2(χ2=6.733,P < 0.05 ). Conclusions DCUS, with its high accuracy, is a new valuable method for macroscopic classification of rectal carcinoma.In the aspect of intestinal wall invasion and the lymph node, protruding type is less severe than ulcerative type and invasive type.

Objective To explore effect of physic temperature dropping by ice blanket on incidence of pressure ulcer of stroke patients in ICU, and normalize the basic nursing procedure during temperature reduc-tion.Methods 230 fever patients were randomly divided into the group A(control temperature with ice blan-ket,108 cases)and the group B (control temperature with routine measure,122 cases).Thc incidence of pressure ulcer and surface temperature of pressed position in the two groups were compared.Results The incidence of pressure ulcer and surface temperature of pressed position in group A was lower than those of group B.Conclusions The incidence of pressure ulcer can be reduced by using ice blanket for physic temperature dropping.The pressure of pressed position were descended by alternative prostration and lateral position.

Objective To investigate the activity of recombinant Vibrio vulnificus hemolysin (rVvhA) on the apoptosis of J774A.1 cells and the related mechanism. Methods The cytotoxic effect of rVvhA on the growth of J774A.1 cells was identified by MTT, celluar and mitochondrial morphology were observed by transmission electron microscopy, apoptosis or necrosis and mitochondrial membrane potential in J774A.1 cells were measured by flow cytometry, activities of caspase-3 ,-8,-9 were detected by spectrophotometry. Results The viability of J774A.1 cells exposed to rVvhA was inhibited, and it is dependent on dose. Celluar and mitochondrial uhrastructure both occurred to change obviously observed by transmission electron microscopy in J774A.1 treated by 2.0 HU/ml and 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA after 8 hours; and 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA group had a better cytotoxic effect on J774A.1 than that of 3.0 HU/ml rVvhA group. The percentage of apoptosis is (7.80±0.62)%, (12.33±0.12)%, respectively. Besides, the mitochondriai membrane potential also reduced, because the rate of fluorescence which is green increase 1.0% (normal) to 9.8% (2.0 HU/ml rVvhA) and 39.2% (3.0 HU/ml rVvhA). At the same time, the caspase-3, -9 activity increased gradually, but caspase-8 remained unchanging. In J774A.1 cells treated by 3.0 HU/ml rV-vhA + caspase-3 inhibitor(Ac-DEVD-FMK) or caspase-9 inhibitor(Ac-LEHD-FMK), The apoptosis of was reduced to(6.23±3.95)% ,(9.60±3.14)%, and the activity of caspase-3, -9 reduced, too. Conclusion The rVvhA has cytotoxic effect on J774A.1. Mitochondria-mediated apoptosis pathway which is dependent on caspase may be related to apoptosis induced by rVvhA in J774A.1.
