Objective To explore the clinical effect of a trapezoidal transparent corneal incision during phacoemulsi-fication.Methods A total of 57 patients(68 eyes)undergoing phacoemulsification were selected and divided into a con-ventional incision group and a trapezoidal incision group using a random number table method.There were 28 patients(34 eyes)in the conventional incision group,including 15 eyes(males)and 19 eyes(females),with an age range of 41-82(65.0±10.1)years;and there were 29 patients(34 eyes)in the trapezoidal incision group,including 21 eyes(males)and 13 eyes(females),with an age range of 46-87(66.0±11.1)years.All patients underwent cataract phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens(IOL)implantation.A 3.0 mm transparent corneal incision was made for patients in the conventional incision group,while an improved trapezoidal transparent corneal incision was made for patients in the trape-zoidal incision group.The uncorrected visual acuity,intraocular pressure,corneal astigmatism,and incidence of intraoper-ative and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results The uncorrected visual acuity of patients in the trapezoidal incision group was better than that of patients in the conventional incision group at 1 week and 3 months after surgery,and the differences were statistically significant(both P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in intraocular pressure and corneal astigmatism between the two groups of patients at 1 week,1 month,and 3 months after surgery(all P＞0.05).The number of eyes with anterior chamber collapse and the number of eyes requiring a watertight incision in the conventional incision group were greater than those in the trapezoidal incision group during sur-gery,and the differences were statistically significant(both P＜0.05).The number of eyes with incision edema and the number of eyes with incision gap in the conventional incision group were greater than those in the trapezoidal incision group after surgery,and the differences were statistically significant(both P＜0.05).In the conventional incision group,IOL was displaced in 18 eyes due to the shallow anterior chamber and then returned to normal after the formation of the anterior chamber through a watertight incision during surgery;during the formation,iris prolapse and incarceration occurred in 2 eyes,and IOL rotation or incarceration occurred in 3 eyes.In the trapezoidal incision group,3 eyes had a shallow anterior chamber after surgery,and a watertight incision was used to form the anterior chamber;there was no IOL incarceration or displacement or iris prolapse.Conclusion The improved trapezoidal transparent corneal incision can effectively prevent IOL displacement caused by anterior chamber collapse during cataract surgery while ensuring the stability of the anterior chamber.It can also reduce the related complications caused by the watertight incision using a flushing needle and restore patients'vision as early as possible.

Objective To comapre and analyze the differences and commonalities of expression profiles of serum exosomal microRNA between patients with thyroid nodules and healthy persons at different iodine levels,and then provide evidence for screening early diag-nostic markers of thyroid nodules at different iodine levels.Methods The peripheral blood samples from 10 patients with thyroid nod-ules and healthy volunteers at different iodine levels were collected.Their serum iodine levels were measured by the arsenic cerium cat-alytic spectrophotometry.Serum exosomal microRNA were extracted and the expression levels of microRNA were determined by the high-throughput sequencing technology.The differential target genes were predicted and further performed Gene ontology(GO)analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analysis.Results Compared with healthy volunteers,there were 6 downreg-ulated miRNAs in the patients with thyroid nodules at different iodine levels,namely miR-324-5p,miR-6511b-3p,miR-9903,miR-550a-3p,miR-5001-3p,and miR-3688-3p.Differentially expressed exosomal microRNA could regulate the MAPK signaling path-way,PI3K-AKT signaling pathway,VEGF signaling pathway,and NF-κB signaling pathway.Conclusion Six differentially expressed microRNAs is identified,which may serve as biological markers for the early diagnosis of thyroid nodules at different iodine levels.

By reviewing the literature regarding the development mechanism of myocardial stunning, effects of acupuncture on myocardial ischemic injury, and correlation between acupuncture and κ-opioid receptor, it was suggested that acupuncture was highly likely to act on κ-opioid receptor in myocardial cells, and directly treated myocardial malfunction induced by myocardial stunning through κ-opioid receptor and its signaling pathway. In addition, acupuncture could inhabit the signaling pathway of adrenoceptor β1, one of the main functional receptors, to indirectly improve myocardial ischemic injury. From κ-opioid receptor signaling pathway, the action mechanism of acupuncture for prevention and treatment of myocardial stunning was discussed in this paper, hoping to provide new ideas for possible mechanism of acupuncture for myocardial ischemic injury.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of somatostatin (SST) gene in endometrial adenocarcinoma tissues and cell lines,and the effects of over-expression of SST gene on the proliferation and invasion of endometrial cancer cell line Ishikawa in vitro.Methods Tissue sections of normal endometrium,endometrioid adenocarcinoma and uterine papillary serous carcinoma were selected to detect the expressions of SST by immunohistochemical method.The total RNA was extracted from fresh specimens that were confirmed as endometrioid adenocarcinoma.According to FIGO staging,samples included G1 (7 cases),G2 (6 cases) and G3 (5 cases) of endometrioid adenocarcinoma.The SST expression levels were detected by real-time PCR.Three endometrial cancer cell lines,Ishikawa,HEC-1A and KLE,were selected and the expression levels of SST were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot assay.Transfection was performed with pLVX-SST and pLVX.The transfection efficiency was observed by fluorescence confocal microscopy.The protein levels of SST were detected by Western blot assay.The assays of CCK-8 and transwell were applied to examine variations in cell proliferation and invasion.Results Immunohistochemical results showed that SST expression was increased in endometrioid adenocarcinoma and uterine papillary serous carcinoma compared with that of normal endometrium.Real-time PCR showed that SST expression was significantly increased in G3 compared with that of G1 and G2 in endometrioid adenocarcinoma (P ＜ 0.05).No matter mRNA or protein,SST levels were significantly increased in endometrial cancer cell line KLE compared with those of Ishikawa and HEC-1A,and the expression levels of SST mRNA and protein were significantly increased in HEC-1A group than those of Ishikawa group (P＜0.05).The expression of SST protein was significantly higher in the group of Ish-SST after 2 generations compared with that of Ish-ctr group.There were no significant differences in cell proliferation and invasive ability after over-expression of SST between Ishikawa cell group and control group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion SST is highly expressed in poorly differentiated endometrial cancer cells.The proliferation and invasion are not increased after the over-expression of SST in Ishikawa cell line of endometrial cancer.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of ethosuximide,an antiepileptic drug,on sevoflurane-induced emergence delirium in neonatal rats.Methods Twelve SD rats (17-23 g) at postnatal day 9-11 were randomly divided into ethosuximide group (4 mg/100 μl,intraperitoneal injection,n=6) and saline group (100 μ1,intraperitoneal injection,n =6).Then the pups were treated with 1％ sevoflurane for 10 minutes and agitated behaviors was observed using PAHBs scoring method for every 2 minutes.Ten more pups were randomly divided into two groups as previously described.Then the pups were treated with 1％ sevoflurane for 10 minutes and EEG power spectrum of frontal lobe was monitored for every 2 minutes.Results Both PAHBs scores and EEG power spectrum at 2 min,4 min,6 min,8 min and 10 min were significantly decreased in ethosuximide group when comparing with saline group under 1％ sevoflurane inhalation (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ethosuximide can decrease frontal lobe EEG power spectrum in sevoflurane-induced agitated rats and inhibit sevoflurane-induced emergence delirium in neonatal rats.

Objective: To investigate the determinants affecting the heart rate deceleration capacity (DC) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Methods: One hundred patients with DCM (DCM group) and 202 healthy subjects (control group) were respectively enrolled. Echocardiography and 24 hours electrocardiogram were performed in all subjects. DC value was compared between the two groups. Multiple regression analysis was made to evaluate the related determinants of DC ((age, sex, echocardiographic parameters including the left atrial diameter (LAD) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)). Results: (1) DC value was significantly lower in DCM group than in control group( (4.40±2.03) ms vs. (7.30±1.81) ms, P<0.01), prevalence of DC value≤4.5 ms was significantly higher in DCM group than in control group (62% vs. 6%, P<0.01). (2) DC value in the DCM group decreased in proportion to increasing LAD dimension, DC value was (5.60±2.04) ms, (4.50±2.07) ms and (3.60±1.62) ms (P<0.05) in DCM patients with LAD≤40 mm, 40 mm50 mm, respectively. (3) DC value in the DCM group was negatively related to the LAD (r=-0.366, P<0.01), positively related to the LVEF (r= 0.241, P<0.01), but not related with age and sex. Multiple factors regression analysis showed that increased LAD was related to the reduced DC values independtly. Conclusion DC value of the patients in the DCM group is decreased, which indicate the decrease of the vagus nerve tension, and increased LAD is related to the reduced DC value independtly in DCM patients.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non - coding RNA(lncRNA)in neonatal rats with hypoxic - ischemic brain damage(HIBD). Methods SD rats of 10 postnatal days were divided into the sham -operated control and the hypoxic - ischemic(HI)group. At 24 h after HI,the animals were sacrificed. HE staining was used to assess histopathological damage. Microarray was used to detect the expression of lncRNA and mRNA in hypoxic -ischemic and sham control brain. Real - time PCR was used to verify the microarray result. The differentially expressed mRNA was analyzed by gene ontology(GO),pathway and coding - noncoding RNA co - expression(CNC)network analysis. Results HE staining showed that cells in HI brains became swollen and disordered with ambiguous cell struc-ture. Microarray data demonstrated that 322 lncRNAs and 375 mRNAs were significantly altered in the neonatal brains following hypoxic - ischemic injury compared with sham control(P ﹤ 0. 05). The real - time PCR results agreed with those of the microarray. GO analysis showed that the most enriched biological process associated with the upregulated mRNA had response to wounding,whereas the biological process mostly enriched among the downregulated mRNA was so-matic stem cell division. Pathway analysis indicated that upregulated mRNA was primarily corresponded with cytokine -cytokine receptor interaction pathway and that downregulated mRNA mainly correlated to axon guidance pathway. CNC network analysis demonstrated that 177 lncRNAs were correlated to the expression of mRNA involved in inflammation and cell death(P ﹤0. 05). Conclusions HI injury significantly influences cerebral lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles in the neonatal rat brains. Deregulated lncRNAs might contribute to the pathogenesis of HIBD via interacting with mRNA.
