ABSTRACT
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective therapy for the treatment of hematological benign and malignant tumors, but the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) will affect the whole organs and tissues, causing serious damages to the patient's body.This not only seriously affects the life quality of patients, but also increases the mortality of patients after transplantation.Ocular GVHD is a manifestation of ocular rejection, and 60%-90% of patients with chronic GVHD are accompanied by ocular GVHD, the manifestations of which are dry eye, conjunctivitis, keratitis, and so on.Severe ocular GVHD can cause vision loss.But there is no unified treatment standard at present.The commonly used treatments include artificial tears, autologous serum eye drops, topical glucocorticoid, topical immunosuppressive agents, punctal occlusion, and contact lens wearing.The treatment progress of ocular GVHD was reviewed in this article.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand the prevalence of low vision among Tujia and Han children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents in minority areas.@*Methods@#A cluster sampling of Tujia and Han primary school students from two primary schools in Lichuan City, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hubei Province (2 466 Tujia and 971 Han) were selected for visual acuity assessment. Univariate χ 2 test and multivariate Logistic analysis were used. Low vision and associated factors between Tujia and Han nationality were compared.@*Results@#The overall detection rate of low vision among children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas was 44.9%. There were differences in the degree of low vision in the left and right eyes of individuals, and the detection rate of low vision varied significantly by ethnic, gender and grade ( χ 2=22.10, 18.43, 19.06, 17.97 for the left eye, 17.52, 20.44, 21.49, 18.61 for the right eye, P < 0.05). There were many factors affecting low vision among children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, overweight and obesity were negatively associated with low vision ( OR=1.81, 1.70, 95%CI=1.76-1.92, 1.66-1.82, P <0.01).@*Conclusion@#Low vision is highly prevalent in Tujia children and adolescents. Effective intervention measures should be taken to treat and prevent myopia in children and adolescents.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effectiveness and safety of different endoscopic papillary balloon dilation time in treatment of common bile duct stones. Methods 45 patients with common bile duct stones received ERCP treat﹣ment, and they were randomly divided into short-term and long-term balloon dilatation group, then compared opera﹣tive time, intraoperative and postoperative complication rate, hospitalization days and the total cost of hospitalization between the two groups. Results Short-term group included 22 people, the long term group included 23 people, there were no significant difference in stones' size, number and diameter of common bile duct between the two groups (P> 0.05), however, the success rate of surgery, time of stones' extraction, intraoperative complications and postoperative fistula were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Long-term balloon dilation during ERCP for treatment of common bile duct stones can improve the success rate of stone removal and reduce complications.
