ABSTRACT
AIM: To observe the clinical effect of foldable capsular vitreous body(FCVB)implantation on ocular trauma and silicone oil-dependent eyes.METHODS: A prospective case study was performed on 17 cases(17 eyes)with ocular trauma and silicone oil-dependent in the First Hospital of Changsha from October 2017 to April 2022. All patients underwent FCVB or silicone oil removal combined with FCVB implantation. The follow-up time was 6mo, and the visual acuity, intraocular pressure, ocular axes, normal external appearances and FVCB were observed at 1wk and 6mo after operation.RESULTS: Only 6 cases had visual acuity before operation, and there were no statistical differences in the visual acuity before and at 1wk and 6mo after operation(P>0.05). The intraocular pressure was low before operation, but it was elevated at 1wk and 6mo after operation. The axial length was unchanged at 1wk and 6mo after operation, and the appearance and structure of eyeball were well maintained, and FCVB was stable with no atrophy during the follow-up period.CONCLUSIONS: FCVB implantation can preserve the appearance of eyeball, and avoid atrophy of eyeball and repeated operation, which has favorable clinical application value in the treatment of ocular trauma and silicone oil-dependent eyes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound on the hippocampus and to study its possible mechanism in mice.Methods Totally 32 adult C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into the sham group(n=16)and the LIPUS group(n=16).Mice in the sham group were treated with sham operative,while mice in the LIPUS group were treated by low intensity pulsed ultrasound(average power density of 150 mW/cm2).After 7 days of treatment,immunohistochemical(IHC)and western bolt(WB)were used to determine the expression of DCX,GFAP,and Iba1 in the hippocampus,and the behavioral changes of mice in open field test were observed.Results After 7 days of treatment,the results of IHC showed that the number of microglial cells in the LIPUS group were significantly increased,and the difference was statistically significant compared with that in the sham group(P<0.05).The WB results indicated that the expression of Iba 1 protein in hippocampus was significantly increased in LIPUS group compared with that in the sham group(P<0.05).In the meantime,the behavior score of LIPUS group in the open field test was increased significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Low intensity pulsed ultrasound can increase the number of microglia in the hippocampus and reduce the anxiety of the mice.
