Effect of DNA immune absorption on lupus pneumonia / 中国综合临床

Objective To investigate the clinical application and efficacy of DNA immune absorption in patients with lupus interstitial pneumonia.Methods to collect randomized 18 patients with lupus patients with pneumonia were enrolled in the study and randomly divided into immunoadsorption group and traditional CTX treatment group,in order to observe the ESR,CRP,ANA quantitative monitoring at different time,pulmonary function test (diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide,DLCO),6 min walking distance,procalcitonin (PCT).The difference between groups was statistically analyzed and the effect of DNA immunization was discussed.Results There were significant differences between immunoadsorption group and control group in ESR at the different time points before and after the treatment (Fgroup =7.841,P＜0.05;Fcross =6.512,P ＜0.05;Finteraction =10.421,P＜0.05),CRP(Fgroup =6.995,P＜0.05;Fcross=5.847,P＜0.05;Finteraction =8.847,P＜ 0.05) and ANA quantitative monitoring (FgrouP =12.336,P ＜ 0.05;Fcross =11.214,P ＜ 0.05;Finteraction =15.847,P＜0.05).At 1 and 2 weeks after treatment,CRP and ESR of the immunoadsorption group began to decrease,and the difference was statistically significant compared with those before treatment (P ＜0.05),while the difference between the control group and the treatment group was statistically significant after 4 weeks (P＜0.05).After 2 weeks of treatment,there was a significant difference in ANA quantitative monitoring between the immunoadsorption group,compared with that before treatment.There was a significant difference between the control group before treatment and the 6 months after treatment (P＜0.05).There was a significant difference between the immunoadsorption group and the control group in pulmonary function test (FgrouP =6.222,P＜ 0.05:Fcross =7.154,P＜ 0.05:Finteraction =8.527,P ＜ 0.05),6 min walking distance (FgrouP =8.669,P＜ 0.05;Fcross =7.154,P ＜ 0.05;Finteraction =11.547,P＜ 0.05) and PCT (FgrouP =5.621,P ＜0.05;Fcross =4.125,P ＜ 0.05;Finteraction =7.554,P ＜ 0.05.The pulmonary function and 6 min walking distance of 2-week treatment in the immunoadsorption group.There showed a significant difference compared with that before treatment.The difference between the control group after 4 weeks of treatment and that before treatment was statistically significant (P=＜0.05).There was a significant difference between the 2 weeks PCT treatment in the immunoadsorption group and that before treatment (P＜0.05).There was a significant difference between the control group after 3 months of treatment and before treatment (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The treatment of lupus interstitial pneumonia in traditional regimens is ineffective,and the efficacy of DNA is better than that of conventional regimens,and reduces the risk of infection.

Recovery of anterior corneal biometry after discontinuation of orthokeratology / 眼科新进展

Objectivc To observe the short-term changes of anterior corneal biometry after discontinuation of orthokeratology in patients with 2-year wearing.Methods Retrospective study.Sixty myopic patients aged from 8-14 years old during October 2012 and October 2014 were wearing orthokeratology for 2 years in Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital.According to the degree of myopia,they are divided into three groups(SE≤-2.00 D for group A,-2.00 D ＜ SE ≤-4.00 D for group B and -4.00 D ＜ SE ≤-6.00 D for group C).The recovery of anterior corneal curvature,including flat K(FK),steep K(SK),average K (AVEK),changes of axial length and central corneal thickness (CCT) at 1 week,2 weeks,1 month after discontinuation of orthokeratology were observed.Results There was no statistical differences in FK,SK,AVEK before and 2 weeks after wearing orthokeratology in group A (all P ＞ 0.05).While in group B,there was no significant difference in FK,SK,AVEK before and 1 month after wearing orthokeratology;There were statistically differences in FK,SK,AVEK at 1 month after discontinuation in group C compared with the baseline (all P ＜0.05).As for CCT,there was no statistical differences among group A,B,C after discontinuation of orthokeratology for 2 weeks (all P ＞ 0.05).There were statistical differences in the axial length between 1 week and 2 weeks after discontinuation of orthokeratology in group B and C (all P ＜ 0.05);There were statistical differences in the axial length between 1 month and 2 weeks after discontinuation of orthokeratology in three groups (all P ＜ 0.05);Compared with the state before wearing orthokeratology,the increase of axial length in group A,B,C were (0.43 ± 0.36) mm,(0.35 ± 0.21)mm and (0.36 ± 0.29) ram,respectively.Conclusion The time course of returning to the original corneal parameter varies among different degree of myopia,and the axial length has no significant growth after short-term discontinuation.

Analysis of densitometry of keratoconus / 眼科新进展

Objeetive To compare corneal densitometry measured by Pentacam in normal and keratoconic eyes,and assess the differences in densitometry values among the stages of keratoconus.Methods Densitometry values for 66 eyes (36 eyes from keratoconus group,30 eyes from control group) were obtained for the 0-2 mm,2-6 mm,and 6-10 mm zones of the anterior (up to 120 mm),posterior (posterior 60 mm),and central (between the anterior and posterior) cornea.The differences in densitometry values among the stages of keratoconus were compared.Pearson correlation analysis was used to access the relationship among Keratoconus optical density,cornea thickness and flat K values.1~l~ In total diameter,the corneal densitometry between keratoconus group (17.96 ± 3.23) and control group (17.39 ± 1.95) was not significant different(P =0.124),but there were significant differences between the groups for densitometry measurements in central 2.0 mm zones(anterior,central and total layers),annulus 2-6 mm(anterior layers) and anterior layers in total diameter (all P ＜0.05).Divided by different stage of keratoconus,the anterior layer in mild Keratoconus had no difference with control group(P ＞0.05),but therewere significant differences in moderate keratoconus group(all P ＜ 0.05).In severe Keratoconus group,a statistically significant difference was present at the 2 central annuli in total thickness and annulus 2-6 mm (anterior,central and total layers) with control group (P ＜ 0.05).The correlation between corneal densitometry and the other parameters,including cornea thickness and flat K values were significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Conelusion Compared with normal cornea,there is no change in mild keratoconus.The increase of corneal densitometry in moderate keratoconus group happens in the anterior layers of 0-2 mum zones.The anterior layers of 0-6 mm zones and central layers in 0-2 mm zones in severe keratoconus group are higher than those of control group.More advanced cases present a higher corneal densitometry.Corneal densitometry is an important characteristic of keratoconus,it can be used to detect the process and therapeutic effect of keratoconus.

A segmentation algorithm of OCT image for macula edema / 生物医学工程学杂志

According to the characteristics of OCT images for macula edema, we studied a method for segmentation of the macula edema. Based on the Chan-Vese model, we proposed an improved level-set algorithm. With defining the integer-valued signed function directly, the curve could evolute outward or inward by changing the inside neighboring rid points and outside neighboring grid points into each other. We realized image segmentation which is much faster than the method of Chan-Vese model and smoothness regularization. We segmented 45 images and extracted the macula edema of each image. After achieving good segmentation results, we estimated the volume of the macular edema. The method provides quantitative analytic tools for clinical diagnosis and therapy.
