目的:探讨青光眼滤过性手术浅前房的发生、发展和预防处理。方法:回顾性研究了我院过去102例(112眼),其中急性闭角型青光眼64例(67眼),慢性闭角型青光眼7例(11眼),开角型青光眼26例(29眼),继发性青光眼5例(5眼)的治疗经过。结果:112眼中术后24h有77眼前房形成,占68.8%,发生I型浅前房23眼,II型9眼,III型3眼,共占32.2%,其中5眼分别于术后2～4d变浅。荧光素试验发现结膜切口渗漏者3眼,有较明显睫状体脉络膜脱离5眼,小眼球并发晶状体膨胀2眼,恶性青光眼1眼,均经相应处理后前房恢复。结论:青光眼滤过性手术浅前房的发生率是较高的,但只要加强手术前后的治疗处理,术中仔细操作,多数浅前房是可以预防的,即使发生了浅前房只要处理及时和恰当,预后也是良好的。     

Construction of developmentally inspired periosteum-like tissue for bone regeneration

The periosteum, a highly vascularized thin tissue, has excellent osteogenic and bone regenerative abilities. The generation of periosteum-mimicking tissue has become a novel strategy for bone defect repair and regeneration, especially in critical-sized bone defects caused by trauma and bone tumor resection. Here, we utilized a bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP-2)-loaded scaffold to create periosteum-like tissue(PT) in vivo, mimicking the mesenchymal condensation during native long bone developmen...     

Angiographic uterine artery embolization followed by immediate curettage: an efficient treatment for controlling heavy bleeding and avoiding recurrent bleeding in cervical pregnancy

Two cases of cervical pregnancy with heavy bleeding successfully treated by uterine artery embolization (UAE) followed by immediate curettage are described in this report. Case 1 demonstrated intermittent bleeding after serious bleeding was successfully controlled by UAE. Serum beta human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) level rose remarkably after a short time decline. Transvaginal sonography consistently revealed a heterogeneous mass in the cervix. Repeated UAE followed by immediate curettage was performed and complete resolution was achieved. Case 2 was also successfully managed by UAE followed by immediate curettage after failure of medical treatment. This report suggests that UAE followed by immediate curettage is a safe and efficient procedure for controlling heavy bleeding and avoiding recurrent bleeding when fertility capacity is desired in cases of cervical pregnancy with fetal cardiac activity and high beta-hCG concentration.

Factors Associated with Macular Staphyloma Area on Ultra-widefield Fundus Images

PurposeTo assess the feasibility of applying ultra-widefield fundus (UWF) images for macular staphyloma area (MSA) measurement and investigate the associated factors with MSA.MethodsThis is a retrospective study. MSA was measured by UWF imaging. Central foveal thickness, subfoveal choroidal thickness, subfoveal scleral thickness were measured on spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Intraclass correlation coefficients of MSA measurement would be evaluated. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the associated factors with MSA.ResultsIn total, 135 eyes of 92 patients were enrolled. The mean age was 64.73 ± 10.84 years. Mean MSA on UWF image was 279.67 ± 71.70 mm². Intraclass correlation coefficients of MSA measurement was 0.965 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.946 to 0.977; p < 0.001). In the multiple linear regression analysis, after adjusting for subfoveal choroidal thickness, best-corrected visual acuity, central foveal thickness, and subfoveal scleral thickness, the factors independently related to MSA were axial length (β = 8.352; 95% CI, 3.306 to 13.398; p = 0.001), sex (β = −26.673; 95% CI, −51.759 to −1.586; p = 0.037), age (β = 1.184; 95% CI, 0.020 to 2.348; p = 0.046).ConclusionsIt is feasible to measure MSA on UWF image. Female, longer axial length, and older age may indicate larger MSA.     

Control of Fe3+ coordination by excess Cl− in alcohol solutions

We spectroscopically investigated coordination state of Fe³⁺ in methanol (MeOH) and ethanol (EtOH) solutions against Cl⁻ concentration ([Cl⁻]). In both the system, we observed characteristic absorption bands due to the FeCl₄ complex at high-[Cl⁻] region. In the MeOH system, the proportion (r) of [FeCl₄]⁻ exhibits a stationary value of 0.2–0.3 in the intermediate region of 10 mM < [Cl⁻] < 50 mM, which is interpretted in terms of [FeCl_nL_6−n]³⁻ⁿ (n = 1 and 2). In the EtOH system, r steeply increases from 0.1 at [Cl⁻] = 1.5 mM to 0.7 at [Cl⁻] = 3.5 mM, indicating direct transformation from [FeL₆]³⁺ to [FeCl₄]⁻. We further found that the coordination change significantly decreases the redox potential of Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺.

Fe³⁺ coordination in alcohol solution can be controlled by the Cl⁻ concentration ([Cl⁻]). The coordination state changes from FeL₆ (L: solvent molecule) to FeCl₄ type via FeCl_nL_6−n with increases in [Cl⁻].     

Protective effect of valerian extract capsule (VEC) on ethanol- and indomethacin-induced gastric mucosa injury and ameliorative effect of VEC on gastrointestinal motility disorder

ContextValerian extract capsule (VEC) is an effective Chinese patent medicine used for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases.ObjectiveTo investigate the detailed pharmacological activity for VEC clinical effects in GI diseases.Materials and methodsSprague-Dawley rats were divided into six groups: control, model, and drug-treated (VEC-L, VEC-M, VEC-H, and teprenone). Rats were orally administered VEC (124, 248, 496 mg/kg) and teprenone (21.43 mg/kg) for 3 consecutive days. After 1 h, the five groups (except the control group) were orally given ethanol (10 mL/kg) for 1 h or indomethacin (80 mg/kg) for 7 h. The spasmolytic activity of VEC (0.01–1 mg/mL) on ACh/BaCl₂-induced New Zealand rabbit smooth muscle contraction was performed. The C57BL/6 mice carbon propelling test evaluated the effects of VEC (248–992 mg/kg) on intestinal motility in normal and neostigmine/adrenaline-induced mice.ResultsCompared with the model group, VEC treatment reduced the gastric lesion index and mucosal damage. Further experiments showed that the pathological ameliorative effect of VEC was accompanied by augmentation of the enzymatic antioxidant system and cytoprotective marker (COX-1, p < 0.01; PGI2 p < 0.05;), along with the alleviation of the levels of MPO (ethanol: 15.56 ± 0.82 vs. 12.15 ± 2.60, p < 0.01; indomethacin: 9.65 ± 3.06 vs. 6.36 ± 2.43, p < 0.05), MDA (ethanol: 1.66 ± 0.44 vs. 0.81 ± 0.58, p < 0.01; indomethacin: 1.71 ± 0.87 vs. 1.09 ± 0.43, p < 0.05), and inflammatory mediators. VEC decreased the high tone induced by ACh/BaCl₂ and promoted intestinal transit in normal and neostigmine/adrenaline-induced mice.Discussion and conclusionsVEC showed a potential gastroprotective effect, suggesting that VEC is a promising phytomedicine for the treatment of GI diseases.     

Correlation between C-reactive protein/albumin ratio and prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma

ObjectiveThis study was performed to examine the relationship between the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) and the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma and thus provide a reference for evaluating the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma.MethodsThe clinical data of 130 patients with lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The patients’ overall survival (OS) time was calculated, and the factors affecting OS were statistically analyzed.ResultsThe CAR was correlated with sex, clinical stage, brain metastasis, S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B), interleukin 17, myelin basic protein, squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag), and the lymphocyte count. The median OS was significantly shorter in the high- than low-CAR group (18 vs. 64 months, respectively). The CAR, clinical stage, brain metastasis, S100B, interleukin 17, SCC-Ag, C-reactive protein, albumin, and neutrophil count affected the OS of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The CAR and clinical stage were independent risk factors for a poor prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.ConclusionsThe CAR and clinical stage are independent risk factors for OS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.
