Objective:To study the allocation efficiency of private ophthalmology health resources in Shanxi,and to provide references for improving the allocation efficiency of health resources in Chinese private ophthalmology medical institutions.Methods:The resource allocation and services of 70 private ophthalmic medical institutions in Shanxi were collected through a questionnaire survey,and Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA)was used to evaluate the efficiency of health resource allocation in medical institutions of Shanxi.Results:The average values of technical efficiency,pure technical efficiency,and scale efficiency of health resource allocation in private ophthalmic medical institutions in Shanxi were 0.963,0.980,and 0.982,respectively.Among the 70 private ophthalmology institutions,7 institutions were DEA-strongly efficient in health resource allocation,26 institutions were DEA-weakly efficient,37 institutions were non-DEA efficient,15 institutions had constant return to scale,40 institutions had increasing return to scale,and 15 institutions had decreasing return to scale.The allocation of health resources in 7 cities,including Taiyuan,Datong,and Shuozhou,etc.were DEA-strongly efficient;Changzhi and Jincheng were DEA-weakly efficient,both with increasing return to scale;and Linfen was non-DEA efficient with increasing return to scale.Conclusion:The efficiency of health resource allocation in some municipalities of Shanxi needs to be improved;the level of inter-organization varied,and the problems of insufficient resources and wasted inputs coexisted.In the future,ophthalmic resources should be rationally allocated,and input and output indicators should be adjusted according to the actual situation.

Objective To investigate healthy status and disease distribution of couples through analysing the results of pre‐preg‐nancy laboratory examination and to explore high risk factors ,in order to provide scientific references for the realization of eugenics . Methods The routine blood test ,serum markers of hepatitis B ,five items(TORCH) examination ,detection of female vaginal secre‐tions were carried out in 8 313 couples planning pregnancy from 2013 to 2014 ,and the results of pre‐pregnancy health examination were analysed and evaluated .Results The thyroid dysfunction accounted for 17 .43% of all women undergoing examination ,which was the most common disease .Among items carried out in all couples ,thalassemia and positive of hepatitis B surface antigen were the most common ,accounted for 10 .20% and 9 .94% respectively .Conclusion The pre‐pregnancy health examination could screen high risk factors ,which is benefit for guiding eugenics and effectively reducing the birth defects and adverse pregnancy and is a sig‐nificant measure for eugenics .

Development of liver fibrosis is closely associated with angiogenesis and abnormal vascular remodeling. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of angiogenesis and vascular remodeling in fibrogenesis, the results that inhibition of angiogenesis is effective in suppression of liver fibrosis demonstrate that therapies with several molecular targets against angiogenesis, inflammation and fibrosis might be beneficial for the treatment of cirrhosis. However, there is some evidence that inhibition of angiogenesis can even worsen fibrosis. This article outlines recent advances regarding the interplay between inflammation, angiogenesis and fibrogenesis in terms of cellular and molecular mechanisms, and suggests a requirement of greater understanding to intervene in these key processes, such as liver sinusoidal endothelial cell fenestration and impact distinct chemokine actions driving monocyte migration and differentiation, for therapeutic benefit in the future.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of gamma knife in treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia Methods Retrospectively analysis of 120 cases with primary trigeminal neuralgia treated by gamma knife in our department From Jan. 2003 to Mar. 2008 were performed. All cases were treated with the 4 mm collimator and targeted at the proximal nerve at the root entry zone located by MRI. The target dose varied from 80 -90 Gy. Results After a follow-up of 20. 0 ±4. 5 months, complete relief of pain occurred in 69 patients (57. 5%), 50% -90% relief in 34 (28. 3%), relief less than 50% in 12(10.0%) but no relief in 5(4.2 %).The efficient rate was 95. 8% . The common complications include numbness, absence of corneal reflex. 83 patients (69. 2%) experienced temporal facial numbness and 14 patients (11. 7%) reported continuous numbness after treatment of the gamma knife. Conclusions Gamma knife radiosurgery is a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia with few complications.

AIM To investigate if morphine addiction and relapse to morphine-seeking is related to the change in neurosteroid levels in the brain of rats. METHODS Rats were injected ip morphine (5 mg·kg-1·d-1, 18:00-20:00) and trained in conditioned place preference (CPP) box, once daily for 10 d. CPP test was performed 24 h after the last training. After discontinuation of training for 7 d for CPP extinction, then intermittent and inescapable foot-shock (FS, 0.5 mA, 0.5 s on, 40 s off, 15 min) was applied to rats as the priming stimuli for relapse. CPP test was performed 2 h after FS. When CPP test finished, rats were decapitated and the levels of neurosteroids were analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. RESULTS CPP was established when rats were injected morphine and trained for 10 d. At the same time, the levels of pregnenolone and allopregnanolone in the brain tissues of rats were significantly increased. When CPP was reinstated in morphine-treated rats by FS-stress after 7 d CPP extinction, the levels of dehydroepiandrosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate were significantly increased. CONCLUSIONThe development of morphine addiction and relapse may be related to endogenous neurosteroids in rat brain tissues.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of stereotactic radiotherapy in the treatment of lung cancer with superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS). Methods 31 cases of lung cancer with SVCS were treated with body gamma knife. Among them, the diagnosis was confirmed by pathological diagnosis in 17 patients, and right lung cancer was diagnosed by CT-scan and clinical examinations without pathological diagnosis in 14 patients. Clinical manifestations included edema of the face, neck and chest (31 cases), chest pain and difficulty in respiration (30 cases), dyspnea (23 cases), and varicosity over the chest wall (1 case). 29 patients were followed-up till death after treatment, with the follow-up time ranging from 2 to 20 months, and both clinical signs and radiological changes before and after the treatment were compared. Results Clinical symptoms and signs of these 31 patients were significantly improved after the treatment. The overall effective rate was 100% (CR 8 and PR 21) and the median remission time was 8.3 months. The longest survival time reached 19 months after the therapy. Conclusion Stereotactic radiotherapy seems to be a safe and effective treatment for patients with SVCS with a satisfactory response rate, short treatment period and long remission time.
