ABSTRACT
AIM:To evaluate the clinic efficacy of 1g/L anthocyanin eye-patch for mild and moderate dry eye. METHODS: ln this prospective and multicenter study, a total of 320 cases (640 eyes) with mild and moderate dry eye were enrolled from 8 Aier Eye Hospitals in Changsha, Chongqing, Wuhan and so on from October 2016 to April 2017. The patients were assigned to eye patch group (160 cases) and artificial tears group (160 cases) based on random number table. The patients in eye-patch group used 1g/L of anthocyanin eye-patch for more than 6h during night sleep, while the patients in artificial tears group used polyvinyl alcohol eye drops for 4 times per day. The evaluation of symptoms and signs were conducted on 1d before the treatment and 14d after the treatment. The evaluation of symptoms adopted the Ocular Surface Disease lndex ( OSDI), while the observation of signs included tear secretion test (Schirmer ︳ test, S︳t), first noninvasive tear breakup time (NITBUTf) as well as average noninvasive tear breakup time (NITBUTav) measured by Oculus ocular surface analyser. RESULTS: OSDI score, NITBUTf and NITBUTav in the two groups after treatment were significantly improved compared with that before treatment, and the difference had a statistical significance (P < 0. 05). While the difference of S︳t in the two groups before and after treatment had no statistical significance(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in OSDI score, NITBUTf, NITBUTav and S ︳ t between the two groups after treatment (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: The 1g/L anthocyanin eye-patch has similar efficacy with artificial tears for mild and moderate dry eye, which can effectively improve the symptoms and tear film stability.
ABSTRACT
AlM: To evaluate the clinical effect of 200g/L protein-free calf blood extract eye gel for corneal epithelial defect.METHODS: One hundred and sixty - eight cases of corneal epithelial defect ( 58 cases with herpes simplex keratitis; 24 cases with chemical injury; 85 cases with pterygium operation injury ) were randomly divided into two groups: 84 eyes were treated with protein-free calf blood extract eye gel; 84 cases were treated with basic fibroblast growth factor eye gel ( bFGF ) . The bFGF and protein-free calf blood extract eye gels were used 4 times a day. The treatment course was 7d. Epithelial defect restoration, local symptom and sign were observed. RESULTS: The difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment was significant ( P CONCLUSlON: Protein-free calf blood extract eye gels is valuable and safe for corneal epithelial defect.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To understand the relation between the penetrating keratoplasty rejection and the methods of cornea preservation. METHODS: The 30 Wistar rats as donator and 60 SD rats as receptor were used to establish the animal models of penetrating keratoplasty rejection. And 60 SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. Donor cornea of Wistar rats preserved in different methods were used separately in 3 groups. The penetrating keratoplasty rejection index ( RI ) , means survival time ( MST ) of corneal grafts and pathological changes in post -operation were analyzed. RESULTS: The MST was ( 10. 4±1. 70 ) d in moist-chamber- preserved group (Ⅰ), ( 12. 9 ± 1. 81 ) d in medium-term-preserved group (II) and (16. 1±2. 57) d in cryopreserved group ( Ⅲ) . The MST in the cryopreserved group was evidently prolonged, showing a significant correlation compared with other two groups (PCONCLUSION: The postoperative rejection of penetrating keratoplasty in rats is decreased and rejection time is delayed in cryopreserved cornea.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To develop a double antibody sandwich ELISA assay for quantitative determination of recombinant human interferon alpha1b.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Mouse monoclonal antibodies with different binding site on rIFN-alpha1b were screened to select optimized candidates as coating and HRP-labeled index antibodies respectively. And a double antibodies sandwich ELISA was assembled; the reliable lower detection limit, specificity, accuracy and reproducibility were evaluated and validated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The quantitative sandwich ELISA had a reliable lower detection limit of 10 ng/ml, with a liner detection range 10-100 ng/ml (R2 = 0.992), variation coefficient inter-plates is less than 10%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The developed sandwich ELISA was a sensitive and specific, accuracy and reproducibility method for quantitative determination of recombinant human interferon alpha1b in final product.</p>
