Objective Acute lung injury induced by variety causes can be reduced by mesenchymal stem cells.Some studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes have similar features with mesenchymal stem cell,but its role in acute lung injury is less studied.The study was to investigate the protective role and underlying mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-DEs) on smoke inhalation injury (SⅡ) in rats.Methods Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 equal groups:normal control group,smoke inhalation injury (SⅡ) model group and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-DEs) treated group.12 h after establishing the SⅡ model,BMSC-DEs treated group was injected with 0.5 mL BMSC-DEs (derived from 4× 106 BMSCs),and normal control group and SⅡ model group were injected with equivalent volume of normal saline.7 days later,samples were collected.The histopathologic changes of lung were observed after HE staining;BCA was used to test the amounts of total protein in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF);Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to test the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) in the lung tissue;Immunohistochemical was used to test the levels of pulmonary surfactant protein C(SP-C).Results The BALF levels of total protein of SⅡ group was significantly higher than those of normal control group (P＜0.01) and BMSC-DEs groups(P＜0.05);Compared with normal group [(0.164±0.021) ng/L],the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α of SII and BMSC-DEs groups [(0.355±0.106)、(0.234±0.024) ng/L] (P＜ 0.05) were significantly higher,and SⅡ group was higher than that of BMSC-DEs group(P＜0.01);Compared with normal group,the KGF protein expression level in lung tissue of SⅡ group was significantly lower (P＜0.05),but BMSC-DEs group was higher (P＜0.05).BMSC-DEs group was higher than SⅡ group (P＜0.01);Immunohistochemistry showed that the SP-C expression level in lung tissue of SⅡ group was significantly lower than those of other groups (P＜0.05).There was no statistically difference between BMSC-DEs group and control group (P＞0.05).Conclusion BMSC-DEs has a protective effect of smoke inhalation injury rats,the underlying mechanism may be related to BMSC-DEs to reduce inflammation and promote restoration of the alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ.

Intestine,the body's largest digestive and immune organ,always affects the occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease process.Especially the trimethylamine N-oxide as one of the metabolic derivatives produced by intestinal microbiota,can increase the risk of atherosclerosis and promote cardiovascular diseases such as chronic heart failure.Therefore,changing the level of trimethylamine N-oxide in the circulation by taking different measures to intervene the structure,composition and metabolic activity of intestinal flora can affect the occurrence and development of the disease.Thus,the intestinal flora is recognized as a new target for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Background Researches showed that as the non-optical factors,cognitive has certain influence on the regulating system.So accurately experimental design is one of the key steps that evaluates the non-optical factors on regulating system.Objective The present study was to investigate the influence of presenting pattern of target and watching way on the level and amplitude of accommodative fluctuate and to analyze the effect of focus gaze of cognitive on regulating system and the relationship between focus gaze condition under near work and the development of myopia.Methods This study complied with Declaration of Helsinki,and the permission of Ethic Committee and written informed consent was obtained before entering in this trial.Thirty healthy volunteers were included with the mean age (24.80 ± 1.98) years old,equivalent refractive diopter (-1.92 ± 2.02) D and mean cylinder (-0.19±0.58) D.The presenting pattern of the targets was designed as focus gaze and relaxed gaze.The accommodative response and accommodative fluctuation in the complete corrected right eyes for the different targets at the 40 cm under the gazing state was recorded with Grand Seiko WAM 5500 automatic infrared refractor in the experiment.Results The mean accommodative response value was (1.86±0.26) D under the focus gaze and (1.27±0.39) D under the relax gaze,showing a statistically significant difference (t=-8.052,P=0.000).The mean fluctuate value was(0.17±0.06) D under the focus gaze,with a significant lowing in comparison with (0.28±0.17) D under the relax gaze (t =3.600,P =0.001).Conclusions These results demonstrate that the different presenting patterns of sighting target and watching ways of the subjects affect accommodation system.The accommodative response was relatively more accurate with a smaller microwavc moving under the focus gaze condition.

Background Even though the change in wavefront aberrations with correction modality is well documented in the literature,little is known about the underlying mechanism.Complete understanding of the causes responsible for the wavefront change in the combined lens-eye system is important since it provides basic knowledge for further improving the technique to correct refractive error by correcting lenses.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of refractive correction lens on optical property of the eye by analyzing Zernike aberrations in myopic eyes with contact lens correction.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Wenzhou Medical College.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject before entering this study.Zernike aberrations of 52 myopic eyes of 26 subjects with the spherical equivalent-1.75 to-8.50 D were measured using a Hartmann-Shock wavefront sensor.The human eye aberrations were examined at the uncorrected condition,rigid-gas-permeable contact lens (RGP-CL) corrected condition and soft contact lens (Soft-CL) corrected condition.The differences of wavefront aberrations and Zernike coefficients were compared by repeated measurement of single factor variance analysis,and correlation of the aberration changes between uncorrected condition and RGP-CL corrected condition or Sofi-CL corrected condition,between the right eyes and left eyes in different conditions were analyzed by Pearson linear correlation.Results Mean total root-mean-square (tRMS) was (0.71 ± 0.30)μm,(0.54±0.19)μm and (0.74±0.32)μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference (F =8.758,P＜0.001),and tRMS was significant declined under the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =2.746,P =0.008),and tRMS in RGP-CL corrected condition was significantly lower than that in Soft-CL corrected condition (t =3.428,P =0.001).The high RMS (hRMS) was (0.34±0.12) μm,(0.28 ±0.12) μm,(0.40±0.14) μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference among them (F =10.681,P＜0.001).An insignificant decrease of hRMS was seen in the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =1.987,P=0.053),but hRMS value was significant higher in the Soft-CL corrected condition than that in the uncorrected condition (t=2.101,P=0.041) and RGP-CL corrected condition (t=4.266,P＜0.001).Compared with uncorrected condition,the axis astigmatism (C5) and spherical aberration (C12) in the RGP-CL corrected condition and spherical aberration (C12) in the Soft-CL corrected condition were significantly reduced (P＜0.05),and the absolute values of trefoil (C6),vertical coma (C7) and tetrafoil (C10) in the RGP-CL corrected condition were lower than those of the uncorrected condition,but vertical coma (C7) absolute value in the Soft-CL corrected condition was increased (P＜0.05).A significantly positive correlation was seen in the spherical aberration (C12) between the RGP-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition (r =0.763,P＜0.001),and less significant correlation was in the secondary astigmatism (C11) between the Soft-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition(r=0.469,P＜0.001).Conclusions Different contact lens corrected conditions exert their effects on ocular wavefront structure due to its unique interaction with the eye.RGP-CL wearing has strong modification on wavefront aberrations probably due to its molding effect on corneal surface,which reduces the bilateral symmetry.High order wavefront aberration can be modified by Soft-CL wearing.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of myeloid-related protein-8 (MRP-8) and myeloid-related protein-14 (MRP-14) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) and to obtain laboratory diagnostic serum markers and new targets for its drug therapy.Methods A total of 46 patients with KD(KD group) were enrolled from Jul.2009 to Dec.2010 and divided into the coronary artery dilatation(CAD) group(n =15) and the normal coronary artery group(n =31) ;Meanwhile,25 febrile patients with acute respiratory tract infection but without disease in the circulatory,blood,immune systems formed the non-KD febrile group.Twenty healthy children from the out-patient department formed the healthy control group.Peripheral venous blood was collected in the acute and subacute stage of KD.Levels of MRP-8/MRP-14 were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay (ELISA).Gene expressions of MRP-8,MRP-14 in leukocytes were analyzed by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RTPCR).Results The serum levels of MRP-8/MRP-14 along with mRNA expressions of MRP-8 and MRP-14 in the leukocytes in the out-patient acute and subacute stage of KD were significantly higher than those in the non-KD febrile group and the healthy control group(all P ＜ 0.05) ;There was no significant difference between non-KD febrile group and healthy control group (P ＞ 0.05).The serum levels of MRP-8/MRP-14 along with mRNA expressions of MRP-8 and MRP-14 in leukocyte in actue stage of KD were significantly higher than those in subacute stage(all P ＜ 0.001).The serum levels of MRP-8/MRP-14 as well as mRNA expressions of MRP-8 and MRP-14 in the acute and the subacute stage of CAD group were significantly higher than those in the normal coronary artery group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions MRP-8/MRP-14 may probably play a role in the pathogenesis of KD and can be used as a diagnostic indicator for KD;MRP-8/MRP-14 may be involved in the formation of coronary artery lesion and can be used as an effective predictor for the coronary artery lesion.

Background Currently,the recommendation when treating acute biliary or pancreatic disease during pregnancy is to perform endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) without radiation exposure,either empirically (with no radiographic guidance) or with ultrasound guidance.However,few published studies compared these two ways.This study aimed to compare ultrasound-guided ERCP with the procedure without radiographic guidance in the treatment of acute pancreaticobiliary disease in pregnant patients.Methods The clinical data of 68 pregnant patients with acute pancreaticobiliary disease admitted to our hospital between January 2004 and May 2010 were reviewed retrospectively.ERCP was performed without radiographic guidance in 36 cases (group A) and with ultrasound guidance in 32 cases (group B).Data on the following variables were compared between the two groups:surgical success rate,rate of complete stone removal,time to resolution of clinical manifestations and laboratory indicators,length of hospital stay,complications,outcome and differences in efficacy of ERCP during different stages of pregnancy.Results In group A,the rates of surgical success and complete removal of stones were 69％ and 60％,respectively; the corresponding values were 91％ and 89％ in group B (P ＜0.05).Postoperatively,clinical manifestations improved rapidly in all patients; there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (P ＞0.05).Leukocyte counts and liver function had improved significantly after one week in all patients; they recovered more quickly in group B ((8.64±1.83)days vs.(14.57±3.74) days,(14.29±4.64) days vs.(20.00±5.40) days,P ＜0.01).The hospital stay was shorter in group B ((16.28±7.25) days vs.(28.00±6.83) days,P＜0.001).The complication rate was 14％ in group A and 3％ in group B (P ＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in the procedure's efficacy during different stages of pregnancy.Conclusions In the treatment of acute pancreaticobiliary disease during pregnancy,ultrasound-guided ERCP is safer and more effective than performing the procedure empirically without radiographic guidance when performed by experienced practitioners.Its more widespread use is recommended.

BackgroundCycloplegia is well accepted for the first refraction estimate in childhood.Yet no good evidence is offered in terms of which cyclopegia is preferable for the different ages and refractive status in children. ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the effectiveness of cycloplegia between 1％ cyclopentolate and 1％ atropine sulphate before optometry in ametropia children. Methods This was a prospective clinical trail.The self matched-pairs control randomly observation was designed.One hundred and sixty eyes of 80 children of 4-9 years old with refractive error were recruited in this study.1％ cyclopentolate eye drops were topically administered once per 5 minutes for 3 times and 1％optometry was performed 45 minutes after eye dropping.Three days after that,1％ atropine then was used 3 times per day for consecutive 3 days and again the refractive diopter was obtained.The differences of the results in autorefraction,retinoscope and residual accommodation were compared between 1％ cyclopentolate and 1％atropine eye drops.This trail was approved by the Ethic Committee and written informed consent was obtained from each custodian. Results The autorefraction values were ( 0.55 ±3.52 ) D and ( 2.22 ±3.52) D before and after the administration of 1％ atropine with the difference value( 1.66± 1.62) D (t =13.02,P =0.00 ).The autorefraction value was( 1.74±3.46 ) D after dropping of 1％ cyclopentolate and the difference value from that of 1％ atropine was (0.48 ± 0.46) D ( t =13.08,P =0.00 ).The cy(e)lplegic autorefractions of atropine and cyclopentolate have strong correlation ( R2 =0.98,P =0.000 ).The residual accommodation values were ( 0.32± 0.44 )D and(0.05±0.41 ) D after dropping of 1％ cyclopentolate and 1％ atropine with the difference( 0.27±0.55 ) D ( t =4.56,P =0.00 ).The difference value of refractive diopter was (0.31 ± 0.37 )D in myopic group,(0.56±0.48 )D in moderate hypermetropic group and(0.59±0.50)D in high myopic group,and that of myopic group was significantly lower than the moderate hypermetropic group ( t =- 3.14,P =0.00 ).No significant difference was found in the autorefraction difference between 4-6 years group and 7 -9 years group [ ( 0.61 ±0.53 ) D vs ( 0.49 ±0.39 ) D ] ( t =1.21,P=0.23 ).The hidden value because of accommodation had weak correlation with the difference value between atopine and cyclopentolate(r=0.43,P=0.00). ConclusionsBoth 1％ atropine and 1％ cyclopentolate have the cycloplegic effects.This study suggestes that 1％ atropine should be used for the optometry of hypermetropia children.

Background Both functional and morphological changes in amblyopic development are known to occur at various levels in the central visual pathway.However,whether the retina is involved or not during amblyopic progression remains controversial.Objective This study was designed to compare the thicknesses of the fovea and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) of the normal fellow eye of amblyopic eye using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children with myopic anisometropia.Methods Twenty-two patients with unilateral myopic anisometropic amblyopia were included as the anisometropia amblyopia group.Ten unilateral myopic anisometropic amblyopia subjects received treatment and recovered were used as the amblyopic cure group,and 11 individuals with simple myopic anisometropia without amblyopia were enrolled as the control group.OCT was performed on both eyes of all the subjects with informed consent.Fovea retinal thickness and RNFL thickness from the superior,inferior,nasal and temporal quadrants in the peripapillary region were evaluated.The measurement parameters were bilaterally compared in all the individuals by paired t test.The multiple regression model was used to analyze the correlation of retinal thickness with amblyopia patients.This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of this hospital.Written informed consent was obtain from each subject prior to the eye examination.Results Fovea retinal thickness increased in the amblyopic eyes compared with the fellow eyes,showing a statistically significant difference between them (P =0.001).However,no significant differences were found in the fovea retinal thickness between both eyes in the amblyopic cure group and simple myopic anisometropia without amblyopia group (P =0.778,0.943).Among the anisometropia amblyopia group,amblyopia cure group and simple myopic anisometropia without amblyopia group,the RNFL thicknesses of the temporal quadrant was significantly thicker in the higher myopic lateral eyes than those of the fellow eyes (P＜0.001,P =0.003,P =0.046).However,the differences in the superior,inferior,nasal and the average RNFL thickness were not statistically significant between the two eyes (P＞0.05).A negative correlation was found between the inferior retinal thickness with age (r=-0.559,P=0.016).Conclusions The fovea may be affected in unilateral myopic anisometropic amblyopia.There is no significant difference in the RNFL thickness between simple myopic eye and unilateral myopic anisometropia amblyopic eye.Improvement in amblyopia is coming along with the reduction of the thickness of the fovea.
