RESUMEN
AIM: To observe the clinical efficacy of 8-0 polypropylene scleral-sutured fixed intraocular lens(IOL)suspension implantation with the double knots technique in aphakic eyes.METHODS: Retrospective case series study. The data of 30 aphakic cases(31 eyes, 22 males)that underwent IOL suspension in our hospital from January 2021 to November 2022 were collected. The suspension of IOL(AcrySof IQ or Tecnis ZCB00)was performed by 8-0 polypropylene scleral-sutured with the double knots technique. The visual acuity, intraocular pressure(IOP), IOL position and complications with at least 6 mo of follow-up were observed.RESULTS: The mean preoperative uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA, LogMAR)and best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA, LogMAR)were 2.53±0.78 and 0.35±0.26, respectively, which were 0.58±0.26 and 0.36±0.27 at 6 mo postoperatively, respectively. And the differences in UCVA were statistically significant(t=15.408, P<0.01), whereas the difference in BCVA was not(t=-1.677, P=0.104). There were no intraoperative complications, with IOL position all centered, but 3 eyes had IOL tilt, 2 eyes had intraocular hypertension, 5 eyes had corneal edema, and 1 eye had suture exposure postoperatively. There were no complications such as hyphema, vitreous hemorrhage, macular edema, corneal endothelial decompensation, hypotony, choroidal detachment, retinal detachment, fulminant superior choroidal hemorrhage, endophthalmitis, or others.CONCLUSION: The 8-0 polypropylene scleral-sutured fixed intraocular lens suspension implantation with the double knots technique can improve the postoperative visual acuity of aphakic patients, and fewer complications, which is an option for the treatment of aphakia, dislocation of the lens and ligament abnormalities.
RESUMEN
Transfusion -related iron overload damage iron homeostasis of organism ,which damages the structure of the vital organs and leads to the dysfunction of important organs .Iron overload affects the prognosis of the patients,which promotes myelodysplastic syndrome transformation to acute leukemia and reduces the total sur -vival rate of patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation ,which increases the treatment related mortality after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and increases the chance of infection .Iron depletion therapy can de-lay the progression of acute leukemia and prolong the survival time of the patients with acute leukemia and show a certain anti-proliferative activity .
RESUMEN
Chicken ovalbumin upstream promoter-transcription factors (COUP-TFs) are the orphan receptors of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily.These factors include COUP-TF Ⅰ and COUP-TF Ⅱ,which play critical roles in embryonic development,organogenesis,neurogenesis and cellular differentiation.Many studies showed that COUP-TFs were also involved in the development of embryonic eye.More attention has been paid to the issue that mutations of COUP-TFs genes lead to phenotypes of coloboma,small eyes,optic atrophy,eye retardation,strabismus,and amblyopia.However,the mechanisms of COUP-TFs regulating the development of embryonic eye are not clear.The origin,molecular struture,classification,biological functions,mechanisms of regulating the target genes transcription and development of embryonic eye of COUP-TFs were reviewed.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of different pressure on microcirculation of scar proliferation. METHODS: A total of 60 patients with scar proliferation after burning were collected, including 49 males and 11 females, with averagely aged 37 years. The patients were divided into low pressure (0.67-1.33 kPa), normal pressure (1.33-3.33 kPa) and high pressure (3.33-6.67 kPa) groups by envelope method. Pressure tension bandage was used at 1 week after wound healing and gradually increased, reached expected pressure at days 5-7 and sustained for 6 months. Then the changes of blood perfusion at the scar tissue were measured by laser Doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI). RESULTS: According to the intended processing analysis, all the 60 patients enter the result analysis. There were no significant differences of the scar tissue perfusion of the 3 groups before the therapy. After the therapy, the perfusion was decreased in the low pressure group, but there are no statistical changes compared to before the therapy (P > 0.05), while the perfusion was decreased in the normal pressure and high pressure groups (P < 0.05), which was lower in the high pressure group than the normal pressure group (P < 0.05). When the pressure increased to 3.33-6.67 kPa, the patients feel much more uncomfortable and the swelled signs appear, and 2 patients quit the experiment. CONCLUSIONS: The scar tissue perfusion is decreased obviously when adding the pressure to 3.33 kPa by using tension bandage. Using this method, the pressure should gradually increase to the maximum if patients can bear.
