ABSTRACT

Dacryocystitis is a common ophthalmic disease, and the main treatment of it is to abandon the obstructed nasolacrimal duct and create a new lacrimal drainage pathway through implanting a tube.For now, its pathogenesis is understood very limitedly.It is widely accepted that many factors take part in its occurrence, among which obstruction and infection play important roles.Recent researches have shown that there is lacrimal drainage-associated lymphoid tissue (LDALT) which changes remarkably in dacryocystitis, and significant differences in cytokines expression levels in tears between dacryocystitis patients and normal control have been found.In addition, the lacrimal duct has reactions similar to immune rejection to the silicone tube.All of these indicate that immune factors participate in the pathogenesis of dacryocystitis.Changes of immune tissue and macromolecular substances including the LDALT, cytokines, local tissue and cytokines after tube implantation were reviewed to analyze the changes and possible roles of immune factors in the pathogenesis of dacryocystitis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of Ki67 and derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) in clinical outcomes of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods A total of 180 patients with undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma confirmed by pathology from January 2011 to June 2015 in our hospital were enrolled.The neutrophil count and white blood cell count before radiotherapy and chemotherapy were collected,and dNLR was calculated.The positive rate of Ki67 in tumor tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry.The predictive values of Ki67 positive rate and dNLR on the overall survival (OS) rate and progression free survival (PFS) rate were evaluated.Results The 3-year OS rate prediction thresholds for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma by Ki67 and dNLR were 73.5% and 2.21,respectively,which assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.The proportion of TNM Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage in patients with Ki67 ≥73.5% was higher than that in Ki67 < 73.5% (100% vs.89.7%,x2 =5.529,P =0.019);the proportion of T3-4 stage in dNLR ≥2.21 was higher than that in dNLR < 2.21 (91.1% vs.75.0%,x2 =6.228,P=0.013),and the proportion of TNM Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage in the dNLR≥2.21 group was higher than that in the dNLR < 2.21 group (100% vs.90.3%,x2 =4.355,P =0.037).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that Ki67≥73.5% (HR=3.011,95%CI:1.874-4.982,P<0.001) and dNLR≥2.21 (HR =2.234,95%CI:1.274-3.382,P =0.001) were independent risk factors for OS in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma,while Ki67 ≥ 73.5% (HR =2.842,95 % CI:2.055-4.337,P < 0.001) and dNLR ≥ 2.21 (HR =2.086,95% CI:1.452-2.983,P <0.001) were also independent risk factors for PFS in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Patients were divided into high-risk group,medium-risk group and low-risk group combined with Ki67 and dNLR,the 3-year OS rates were 20.0%,85.7% and 95.3% respectively,and the 3-year PFS rates were 12.0%,78.6% and 89.4% respectively,with statistical differences (x2 =15.521,P < 0.001;x2 =15.849,P < 0.001).Conclusion Ki67 and dNLR can effectively predict OS and PFS in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma,combined with Ki67 and dNLR can prognose stratification of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we present a new method which can reconstruct the three-dimensional model of nasolacrimal duct. We firstly resampled the volume data along nasolacrimal duct direction, then segmented the nasolacrimal duct into slices, and finally, completed the 3D reconstruction from the two-D contours. Using this method, we can not only reconstruct normal nasolacrimal duct, but also reconstruct catagmatic nasolacrimal duct. It overcomes the current shortcomings of some traditional methods. Consequently, the technology proposed is of great significance in computer aided technique and surgical planning related to ophthalmonogy.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effects of specific immunotherapy by the nasal spray and/or sublingual contain on the regulation the balance of serum Th1/Th2 cell ratio, and the expression of total IgE (tIgE) level in perennial allergic rhinitis patients.@*METHOD@#Thirty-six cases of allergic rhinitis of perennial (PAR) patients with nasal specific immunotherapy (nasal spray group) were chosen as the object of study, 36 PAR patients with sublingual specific immunotherapy (sublingual group) were chosen for the efficacy comparison group, and 32 cases of healthy adults as control (normal control group). The levels of serum IL-2, IL-4, IL-8 and tIgE in PAR nasal spray group and sublingual group were examined by IRMA and double-antibody sandwich assay before and after the treatment of specific immunotherapy (SIT); The content of IFN-gamma was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; The infiltration and changes of eosinophilic granulocyte were observed by the smear of nasal secretions.@*RESULT@#In nasal spray group and sublingual group, the contents of serum Th1 cytokines IL-2 and IFN-gamma were reduced levels significantly, while the contents of Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-8 and tIgE were significantly increased before the treatment of SIT. After the SIT to the maintenance dose, the levels of IL-2 and IFN-gamma in serum were significantly higher than that before treatment, while IL-4, IL-8 and tIgE content were significantly lower in AR patients (P 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#With the presence of Th1/Th2 cell ratio and cytokine imbalance, the AR patients manifested as Th2 cell function in accentuation. Nasal mucosa and/or sublingual in the local SIT can have changed no-balance Th1/Th2 cell of by regulating the balance of serum Th1/Th2 cell ratio, the expression level of cytokine expression and the level of tIgE.

ABSTRACT

Dacryocystorhinostomy(DCR) has been regarded as the gold standard for the treatment of nasal lacrimal duct obstruction for over a hundred years.Currently,the treatment of nasolacrimal duct obstruction has grown along with the advances in endoscopic techniques developing and in-depth understanding of the mechanisms of lacrimal drainage.Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy,endolacrimal laser and intubation,lacrimal endoscopic recanalization and lacrimal bypass surgery have been employed to substitute for external DCR as treatment for nasolaerimal duct obstruction.The endoscope,laser and minimally invasive techniques provide higher successful rates with minimal wounds,lower rates of both recurrence and complications and allow quicker recovery after surgery.
