AIM:To observe the clinical characteristics of palm video keratitis and analyze the pathogeny. And to explore methods to cure and prevent it.
METHODS: A total of 591 patients were randomly selected. Firstly, the frequency of staring at palm video equipment were investigated and break-up time of tear film with slit-lamp were observed. Then the data were calculated and the clinical characteristics were described. Finally, the correlation between incidence rate and the two factors were analyzed by SPSS13. 0 respectively.
RESULTS:The incidence rate of palm video keratitis increased along with the frequency of staring at palm video equipment and decreased along with break- up time. There was significant relationship between incidence rate and the two factors respectively.
CONCLUSION:It is the most important pathogeny that staring at palm video equipment ahead and down for a long time which cause the change of tear film. That can reduce the frequency of using palm equipment and drop artificial tears to prevent and cure the disease.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of medroxyprogesterone acetate in the treatment of endometrial atypical hyperplasia patients.Methods 98 cases of endometrial atypical hyperplasia patients were randomly divided into study group and control group with 49 cases in each group, study group were treated with medroxyprogesterone acetate treatment, and control group were given estradiol valerate tablets treatment.Two groups of patients were treated for 3 ~6 menstrual cycles, and clinical curative effect of two groups was compared.Results After treatment, the PBAC score and endometrial thickness inspection results in study group and control group respectively decreased significantly compared with before treatment (P<0.05), and the above indexes in study group were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05).After treatment, the hemoglobin value in two groups at 1st, 2nd, 3rd month after treatment was significantly higher than before treatment (P<0.05), and hemoglobin values at 1st, 2nd month after treatment was significantly higher than control group (P<0.05).The effective rate of study group (95.92%) was significantly higher than that of control group (81.63%, P<0.05).The recurrence rate during six months was 4.08% in study group, 8.16% in control group, and the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion The efficacy of medroxyprogesterone acetate is better than estradiol valerate tablets in the treatment of endometrial atypical hyperplasia patients, which is safe and effective.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of 8-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the cell proliferation, apoptosis and collagen secretion in keloid fibroblasts and to provide the theoretical base for ALA-PDT treatment of keloids.

METHODSFibroblasts from keloid patients were cultured to the third generation in vitro and incubated in 0, 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L of δ-aminolevulinic acid for 3 h in the darkness. Then they were exposed to 635 nm wavelength red light ( 30 J/cm2 ) and continued incubation 24 h after irradiation. CCK-8 assay was used to detect proliferation inhibition rate of fibroblasts. The content of hydroxyproline was measured by colorimetric method. The expression of p-Akt and programmed cell death 4 ( PDCD4) were detected by Western blot.

RESULTSThe inhibition rate of keloid fibroblasts were respectively 0, (8.30 ± 1.01)%, (29.48 ± 3.27)%, (52.01 ± 5.34)%, (79.99 ± 5.85)% with the presence of difference concentrations (0, 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L) of ALA. The content of hydroxyproline were respectively (9.540 0 ± 0.352 42), (6.242 5 ± 0.224 85 ), (5.107 5 ± 0.534 88), (3.490 0 ± 0.623 48), (2.945 0 ± 0.514 10) μg/mg. The relative expression of p-Akt were respectively 1, 0.75 ± 0.12, 0.52 ± 0.14, 0.41 ± 0.18, 0.32 ± 0.09. The relative expression of PDCD4 were respectively 1, 1.18 ± 0.19, 1.51 ± 0.22, 0.15 ± 0.30, 2.44 ± 0.22. The difference was statistically significant when compared the group of 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L with 0 mmol/L (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSIn concentration within the range of 1-9 mmol/L, ALA could inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts significantly, promote fibroblasts apoptosis and reduce the content of hydroxyproline in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that 8-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy may be a potential treatment for keloid.

Endogenous NO and CO have been identified in the recent years as signaling molecules and act as the messengers in the body . Both of them have identical characteristics in the mechanism of production and action. Many evidences indicated that NO and CO play important roles in physiological and pathophysiological processes in the prostate. This review highlights the current ideas on localization and function of them in the prostate. We also discussed the relationship between the gaseous messengers and the prostatic diseases.

Heparanase(HPA) is an endo-beta-D-glucuronidase that degrades heparan sulfate proteoglycans side chains.Recently data suggested a role of HPA in several proteinuric diseases and an increased glomerular basement membrane.The research advanced of the molecular properties,the role in proteinuric diseases and the specific inhibitor of the human HPA were described.

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) is a group of extracellular matrix molecules expressed widely in the developing and mature central nervous system (CNS).They play an important role during embryonic CNS development and adult CNS plasticity.As a major extracellular inhibitory compound,CSPG can affect the axon regeneration and neurological recovery after CNS injury.
