AIM: To observe effect of the iris location to femtosecond - combined wavefront guided LASIK for myopia and astigmatism.?METHODS:The patients with astigmatism >1. 0D during the same time and followed up for 1a were selected. A total of 129 eyes in 67 patients were treated under iris location with femtosecond-combined wavefront guided LASIK ( experimental group) and 161 eyes in 82 cases with femtosecond-combined wavefront guided LASIK ( control group) . Laser cutting went with the same laser machine. The uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA ) , best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA) , and wavefront aberration between the two groups were compared at 1, 3, 6mo and 1a after surgery.?RESULTS:At 1 and 3mo after surgery, the number of patients with better postoperative UCVA than preoperative BCVA between the two group showed a statistically significant difference (χ2=6. 423, P=0. 011,χ2=14. 431, P=0. 01 ); at 1d and 1mo after surgery, the residual astigmatism showed a statistically significant difference between two groups (t=1. 98, P<0. 05; t=2. 23, P<0. 05). At 3, 6mo and 1a after surgery, the differences on the change of residual astigmatism between the two groups weren’t significant ( P > 0. 05 ). At 6mo and 1a after surgery, the differences on UCVA between the two groups weren’t significant ( P > 0. 05 ). Until 1a after surgery, the root mean square ( RMS ) of high order wavefront aberration of the two groups, spherical aberration and coma aberration ( COMA ) were all enhanced compared to before surgery(P<0. 05). At 1, 3mo after surgery, the RMS showed a statistically significant difference between two groups (P<0. 05). At 1, 3, 6mo, 1a after surgery, the increase of COMA in experimental group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0. 05).? CONCLUSION: Iris location technology applied in femtosecond - combined wavefront guided LASIK for myopia and astigmatism, can make the vision recovery faster, the RMS of high order and COMA increase less, the residual astigmatism less, show better and more stable treatment effect.

AIM:To contrast analysis of postoperative variation of corneal posterior surface heights after Femtosecond LASlK ( FS - LASlK ) and small incision lenticule extraction ( SMlLE) for high myopia.
●METHODS: Sixty-seven cases of high myopic patients (132 eyes) operated with laser corneal refractive in our hospital from May to Dec. in 2015 (-6. 00D≤spherical equivalent degree≤-10. 00D) were selected and divided into FS-LASlK group and SMlLE group. The thickness of corneal flaps at FS-LASlK and the thickness of map at SMlLE were designed to be 110μm. Corneal posterior surface heights were examined by Pentacam at preoperation, postoperative 3 and 6mo after FS-LASlK and SMlLE operation. Surface height changes after preoperative, postoperative 3 and 6mo were compared by measuring Pentacam corneal analysis system.
●RESULTS: Six months after operation, the FS-LASlK posterior corneal surface height was 6. 47 ± 1. 65mm, significantly higher than 5. 20 ± 1. 32mm before operation. SMlLE posterior corneal surface height was 6. 40 ± 1. 33mm, significantly higher than 5. 18 ± 1. 25mm before operation, the differences were statistically significant( P<0. 05). Six month after surgery, two methods of corneal surface height variation obtained was 1. 29 ± 1. 28mm and 1. 22 ± 0. 89mm, there was no significant difference ( P>0. 05).
●CONCLUSION:After FS-LASlK and SMlLE, the corneal posterior surface is protrusive. FS - LASlK is slightly obvious than SMlLE in early period. The stability of the posterior surface is better after SMlLE.

Immobilized penicillin acylase was used for bioconversion of penicillin G into 6-APA in aqueous two-phase systems consisted of a light-sensitive polymer PNBC and a pH-sensitive polymer PADB.Partition coefficients of 6-APA was found to be:about 5.78,in the presence of 1% NaCl.Enzyme kinetic showed that reaction reached equilibrium at 7h or so.The 6-APA mole yields were 85.3%(pH 7.8,and 20 ℃) and this value was about 20%higher than control in reaction of single aqueous phase buffer.Partition coefficient of penicillin G(Na) washardly changeable,while partition coefficient of product,6-APA and phenylacetate acid was significantly changeable.Reason is due to Donnan effect of phase systems andhydrophobicity of products.The change of partition coefficients of products also affects bioconversion yield of products.In the aqueous two-phase systems,substrate,penicillin G,products 6-APA and phenylacetate acid are biased in top phase,while immobilized penicillin acylase is completely partitioned in bottom.Substrate,penicillin G enters into bottom phase,and it is catalyzed into 6-APA and phenylacetate acid,then the products enter into top phase.Finally,inhibition of substrate and products is removed to result in improvement of products yield.Moreover,immobilized enzymehashigher efficiency than immobilized cells and occupy smaller volume.Comparing with free enzyme,immobilized enzymehashigher stability,longer use life,completely partitioned in bottom phase and recycle.Bioconversion in two-phase systems using immobilized penicillin acylase showed outstanding advantage.The light-sensitive copolymer forming aqueous two-phase systems could be recovered by laser radiation at 488 nm or filtrated 450 nm light,while pH-sensitive polymer PADB could be recovered by isoelectric point(pH 4.1).The recovery of the two copolymers was 95%~99%.

Objective Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) is a life-threatening neonatal disease during perinatal stage. Since excitatory amino acids (EAAs) and their receptors are involved in the pathogenesis. Sodium hydroxybutyrate ( r-OH ), an intermediate metabolite of GABA, may have beneficial effects on HIBD. Methods One-hundred seven-day (7d) SD rat pups were randomly assigned to one of three groups:(Ⅰ) control group (n= 20);(Ⅱ) sham operation group (n=20)and (Ⅲ) r-OH group which was further divided into 3 subgroups according to the dose of r-OH 50 mg?kg-1 (r-OH1) (n=20),100 mg?kg-1 (r-OH2) (n=20),200mg?kg-1 (r-OH3) ( n=20).Animals in control group and r-OH group were subjected to left carotid artery ligation followed by 2 h of hypoxia (O2 :N2=8%:92%).Normal saline ( NS) was administered ip immediately after sham operation or hypoxia,then 3 times a day for 7 days in group Ⅰ and Ⅱ.In r-OH group r-OH was administered ip instead of NS. Brain damage was evaluated by survival rate, pathology, the ratio of weight of left to right hemisphere on the 28 th day after ischemia-hypoxia and the capacity of learning and memory using Y-Maze test. Results (1) The survival rate on the 28 th day after hypoxia or sham operation was significant lower in control group (60%) than that in the other groups (85%-95% ) (P

OBJECTIVETo study the genotoxicity of components of diesel engine exhausts with ethanol-diesel blending fuel. To provide scientific arguments to find more economical and less polluted fuels.

METHODSAmes test, comet assay and GC-MS technique were used to test the genotoxicity and 16 kinds of PAHs on diesel engine exhausts with different proportions of ethanol (E0, E5, E10, E20).

RESULTSBoth Ames test and comet assay were positive. It shows that diesel engine exhausts can lead to mutation and DNA damage, especially in pure diesel oil. But the content of 16 kinds of PAHs and DNA damage level decreased in exhausts of E5. With the increase of ethanol proportion in diesel oil, the content of 16 kinds of PAHs and DNA damage level increased.

CONCLUSIONCompared with pure diesel oil and high proportion of ethanol fuel, E5 can reduce the genotoxicity and the brake specific exhausts of PAHs.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical roles of Jiawei Shentong Zhuyu Decoction (JSZD) in preventing the occurrence of failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), and to observe its effect on serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha).

METHODSTotally 100 patients prepared for surgical operation due to lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were randomly assigned to the treatment group and the control group according to random number table, 50 cases in each group. Patients in the treatment group additionally took JSZD, one dose per day, taken in two portions, once in the morning and once in the evening. Those in the control group took Celecoxib Capsule (200 mg each time, once per day) and Mecobalamin Tablet (0.5 mg each time, 3 times per day). They only took Mecobalamin Tablet from the 11th day. All patients were treated for 30 days. Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score was performed before treatment, at week 1, after treatment, at 6 months of followed-ups, and at 12 months of followed-ups. And the levels of TNF-alpha in the peripheral blood were observed before treatment and at one month after treatment.

RESULTSTotally 93 patients completed the followed-up study. The JOA scores were improved after treatment, at 6 and 12 months of followed-ups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The JOA score at 6 months of followed-ups was superior in the treatment group to that of the control group (P < 0.05). Five patients (accounting for 10.6%) suffered from FBSS in the treatment group, while 9 (accounting for 19.6%) suffered from FBSS in the control group. The treatment group was superior to the control group (P < 0.05). The TNFalpha level was improved after treatment in the two groups. Of them, the improvement of TNF-alpha in the treatment group was better than that of the control group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe application of JSZD was effective for preventing the occurrence of FBSS, and improved the serum TNF-alpha level.

Objective The purpose of this study was to compare the image quality of readout-segmented EPI (RS-EPI) and that of standard single-shot echo-planar imaging (SS-EPI) in patients with scrotal diseases. Methods Initial diagnosis of scrotal diseases were included in the prospective study, all patients underwent scrotum routine MRI and RS-EPI, SS-EPI sequence at 3.0 T. A total of 38 patients were recruited qualitative assessment ,and 29 patients proved by operation and pathology (malignant 21 cases and benign 8 cases) were included quantitative analysis.For qualitative comparison of image quality, two readers independently assessed the two sets of DWI, which consisted of identification of structure and geometric distortion of scrotum (epididymis,testes, lesion) using a 5-point Likert scale. For assessment of image parameters, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast, contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR),apparent diffusion coefficient value of normal testis and testis distortion ratio of anatomical(T2WI)/DWI fusion image were calculated. Inter-observer agreement was assessed with the Kappa statistics, the differences of scores of
RS-EPI and SS-EPI were compared by using Wilcoxon rank-sum test, and image parameters were compared by using paired sample t test. Results There was good reader agreement in the scores, the Kappa value were 0.77, 0.74, 0.80, 0.87. The difference of identification of structure and geometric distortion on RS-EPI and SS-EPI had statistic significance, the RS-EPI was superior to SS-EPI in image quality (all P<0.05).The SNR, contrast of benign lesion for two sequences had no statistic significance(P values were 0.352, 0.124, respectively), but the difference of CNR had statistic significance(P<0.05). The SNR,contrast and CNR of malignant lesion for two sequences had statistic significance (all P<0.05). The mean size of the testis was (35.61 ± 9.78)mm, the mean distance in fusion image of RS-EPI or SS-EPI with T2WI were (3.80 ± 1.32)mm and (7.54 ± 2.62)mm, and the mean distortion ratios of the two set were (11.1 ± 0.6)% and (22.4 ± 19.2)%, respectively, the difference of two sets had statistic significance(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the ADC obtained by using either DWI method(t=0.396,P=0.796), the mean ADC values of normal testes for RS-EPI and SS-EPI, respectively, were (1.18 ± 0.06) × 10-3mm2/s, (1.24 ± 0.11) × 10-3mm2/s.Conclusion RS-EPI DWI images is a feasible technique in the scrotum for producing high-resolution DWI with reduced geometric distortion and offers potentially superior image quality compared to SS-EPI at 3.0 T.
