Objective To invesligate the treatment of retinal de tachment(RD) after silicone oil tamponades(SOT). Methods The records of a consecutive series of 32 eyes with redetachment of retina after SOT surgery between 1998 to 2000 were reviewed retrospectively. The surgical techniques used for these cases included remove of silicon oil,peeling of preretinal membrane, retinotomy, endolaser photocoagutation, secondary vitrectomy and C3 F8 tamponades. Results In 28 of 32 eyes the retina was reattached (87.6%). The postoperative visual acuity was improved in 12 eyes, redused in 4 eyes and remained no change in 16 eyes. The postop erative complications in 6 eyes included secondary glaucoma(3 eyes), hypotony (1 eye) and hyphema (2 eyes). Conclusion The techniques of preretinal membrane peeling, retinotomy, endophotocoagulation and C3 F8 tamponades can be effectively used in combination to treat the redetachment of retina after the silicone oil tamponades surgery.

睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征( SAHS) 是一种常见病症,临床上以阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征( OSAHS) 最为常见[1] 。1993 年一项基于社区人群的研究中, Young 等[2] 发现年龄介于30 ~60 岁的人群中, 以睡眠呼吸暂停低通气指数( AHI) ≥5 次/h 定义的OSAHS在女性的患病率为9% ,在男性为24% , 2% 的女性和4% 的男性同时存在嗜睡症状。越来越多的证据表明睡眠呼吸暂停可导致许多并发症, 包括行为和躯体两方面。行为并发症包括日间嗜睡、注意力下降和神经心理异常, 而躯体并发症主要包括心脑血管疾病, 尤其是高血压[3, 4] 。OSAHS 是全身多个脏器功能损害的独立危险因素, 其中心血管并发症是主要死因[5] 。如何评价OSAHS 病情严重程度, 对患者的诊断、治疗及预后判断具有非常重要的意义。目前AHI 仍然是诊断OSAHS 的金标准,但其与靶器官损害的相关性存在诸多争议。
Objective:To observe the effects of testosterone on optic nerve an d retinal ganglion cells (RGC) in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE ). Methods:Fourty one female Wistar rats were randomly divide d into 3 groups: the normal group (10 rats), the untreated control group (15 rats) and the testos terone group (16 rats). The rats in the first two groups were fed with 1% ethano l every day, and the rats in the testosterone group were fed with methyltestoste rone (0.25 mg/kg) every day. On the 20th day, EAE model was induced in the untre ated control group and the testosterone group by injecting guinea pig spinal cor d homogenate in complete Freund's adjuvant and bordetella pertussis vaccine. RGC were labeled with flurogold (FG) by injecting it in superior colliculus and lat eral geniculate body 7 days before establishing EAE model. All rats were fed wit h drugs continuously, and after 1430 days, rats in normal group and rats in un t reated control and testosterone groups who had symptoms within 48~72 hours were observed by light microscopy and flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) to detect the functional and morphological changes of optic nerve. The number of RGC was counted by fluorescence microscopy,and apoptosis of RGC was observed by termina l deoxynucleotidyl transferasemediated biotinylated UTP nick end labeling (TUN E L) Results:EAE rats presented weakness or paralysis of tail a nd hind limbs 10 days after establishing EAE model. Compared with the rats in the untreated contr ol group, the rats in the testosterone group had longer disease delitescence and lower clinical score (P=0.042). Extensive demyelination of optic nerves wi th the circuitous configuration was found in the untreated control group; while mild demyelination of optic nerves with regular figure was found in the testosterone group. In the testosterone group, the latency of N1、P and N2 wave was shorter w hile the amplitude ofN1-P and P-N2was higher than that in the untreated cont rol group (Plt;0.05). The number of RGC was (2284plusmn;132), (934plusmn;78, and (1725 plusmn;95)cells/mm2 in the normal, untreated control and testosterone groups, respectively; w hich was higher in testosterone group than that in untreated control group (P=0.028). The number of TUNEL positive cells was (4.02plusmn;0.16), (24.44plusmn;2.22), and (9.84plusmn;2.36) cells per high power field (times;400) in the 3 grou ps, respectively; wh ich was less in testosterone group than that in untreated control group (P=0.025). Conclusions:Testosterone may reduce the incidence and clinical score of EAE, inhibit the apoptosis of RGC, alleviate the demyelinatio n of optic nerves, and improved the conduction function of optic nerves.
The Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) is often used to calculate the radiation dose during computed tomography (CT) scans. However, the physical calculation process of the model is complicated, the input file structure of the program is complex, and the three-dimensional (3D) display of the geometric model is not supported, so that the researchers cannot establish an accurate CT radiation system model, which affects the accuracy of the dose calculation results. Aiming at these two problems, this study designed a software that visualized CT modeling and automatically generated input files. In terms of model calculation, the theoretical basis was based on the integration of CT modeling improvement schemes of major researchers. For 3D model visualization, LabVIEW was used as the new development platform, constructive solid geometry (CSG) was used as the algorithm principle, and the introduction of editing of MCNP input files was used to visualize CT geometry modeling. Compared with a CT model established by a recent study, the root mean square error between the results simulated by this visual CT modeling software and the actual measurement was smaller. In conclusion, the proposed CT visualization modeling software can not only help researchers to obtain an accurate CT radiation system model, but also provide a new research idea for the geometric modeling visualization method of MCNP.
The consolidated framework for implementation research (CFIR) is one of the most commonly used theoretical frameworks for implementation science. The updated CFIR was optimized based on the original version. The background, process and contents of the updated CFIR were introduced, and the domains and constructs of the updated CFIR were interpreted in this article. We analyzed the similarities and differences of the updated CFIR compared with the original CFIR, in order to provide methodological references for Chinese researchers to explore the determinants of implementation.

Objective To investigate the value of ice test in the diagnosis of ptosis of myasthenia gravis(MG). Methods A total of 32 patients with myasthenic ptosis and 33 with nonmyasthenic ptosis underwent ice and rest test which were performed alternately twice within 1 day on each patient. Besides, neostigmine test was performed on the patients with myasthenic ptosis after ice and rest test . Two observers who didnrsquo;t know the clinical diagnosis were asked to evaluate the improvement of eyelid elevation by measuring the width between the midpoints of upper and lower eyelid with a 20mm steel rule (precision of 0.5 mm). The average of margin of palpebral fissure width after double ice or rest tests subtrac ted from the one before the tests in one patient was the standard of the improve ment of eyelid elevation. Results Ice and rest test improved myasthenic ptosis but not nonmyasthenic ptosis with the specificity of 100% in both of the tests. In addition, ice test improved myasthenic ptosis more effectively with a higher sensitivity of 78%, and it could also improve the palpebral fissure width in pa i tents with complete myasthenic ptosis apparently. Compared with the neostigmine test, ice test had lower sensitivity, cost shorter time, didnt need injection which avoided the discomfort, and had no side effects. Conclusion Ice test is a simple and safe means with high sensitivity and specificity to diagnose myasthenic ptosis, which is valuable in clinical application.

Objective To analyze the dynamic efficiency of township hospitals. Methods Based on the DEA-Malmquist index, this research analyzed the change of the total factor productivity indices and the decomposition items of 281 township hospitals in Hunan province with panel data from 2000 to 2008. Results Among 281 township hospitals, less than half increased their scale efficiency, while more than half increased their total factor productivity, technology, whole efficiency and technical efficiency. Increasing technology and whole efficiency was the best way to improve total factor productivity. Besides, increasing technical efficiency and scale efficiency was the best way to improve whole efficiency. Conclusions The improvement of scale efficiency is key to developing the central township hospitals, while the improvement of technology is the key to developing general township hospitals.
