Correlation analysis between plasma insulin level and refractive development / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM: To explore the correlation between plasma insulin level and refractive development.<p>METHODS: Collected 293 adolescents aged 11-12 who were examined in our hospital from January to June 2019.According to the refractive power, they were divided into emmetropia group(76 cases), low and moderate myopia group(144 cases), high myopia group(35 cases), and hyperopia group(38 cases). Measure and compare the plasma insulin and related indexes(blood sugar, glycosylated hemoglobin, C-peptide levels)of the four groups of subjects on an empty stomach and 2h after a meal. Person correlation was used to analyze the correlation between plasma insulin and its related indexes and diopter. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to explore the diagnostic value of plasma insulin levels for refractive dysplasia.<p>RESULTS: The average levels of insulin, blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, and C-peptide in the low and moderate myopia group and the high myopia group on an empty stomach or 2h after a meal were higher than those in the emmetropia group and the hyperopia group. The levels of insulin, blood sugar and glycosylated hemoglobin in the high myopia group were higher than those in the low and moderate myopia group(all<i> P</i><0.01). Plasma insulin, blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, and C peptide levels were negatively correlated with diopter 2h after a meal(<i>r</i>=-0.691, -0.756, -0.546, -0.311, all <i>P</i><0.05). The ROC curve showed that the cut-off value of plasma insulin level 2h after meal for identifying refractive errors was 0.367, the maximum area under the curve was 0.708(<i>P</i><0.001, 95% <i>CI</i>: 0.576-0.840), the sensitivity was 63%, and the specificity was 73.7%.<p>CONCLUSION: Elevated plasma insulin level may affect refractive development, the higher the level, the higher the degree of myopia. Therefore, regular high-glycemic carbohydrate diets during the growth period may lead to the development of refractive errors and permanent visual impairment.

Treatment method and timing for dacryocystitis in different months -old children / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

AIM: To explore the treatment method and timing for neonatal dacryocystitis in different month-old children. ●METHODS: A total of 180 children ( 207 eyes ) with dacryocystitis who were admitted to our hospital between Jan. 2010 and Dec. 2014 were selected as the study subjects. According to months of age, they were divided into ●RESULTS:1) Hasner valvular obstruction was common in different months old children, and the proportion was higher than that of children with nasolacrimal duct bony part obstruction (P0. 05);5) the times of treatment in 3-6 months old group and 6-12 months old group was more than that in ● CONCLUSION: For < 3 months old children with dacryocystitis, conservative treatment like lacrimal massage should be preferred. For children without effect, lacrimal duct washing with pressure and lacrimal duct probing should be given; For 3-6 months old children, lacrimal duct washing with pressure is preferred, and for 6 - 12 months old children, lacrimal duct probing is recommended.

Relationship between blood lead level and abnormal eye blinking in children / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

?AlM:To study the relationship between blood lead level and abnormal eye blinking in children. ? METHODS: The patients with chief complaint of frequent eye blinking, whose diagnosis of abnormal eye blinking, were randomized to experimental group. The patients in this group carried out vision and the slit-lamp examination, detected corneal fluorescein staining and tear break-up time, and improved the level of blood lead and trace elements examination. The patients in control group with chief complaint of health physical examination in our hospital, excepted of blood lead level, the other body check results were normal and were divided into boys group and girls group according to the gender. The changes of the experimental group and control group in blood lead level were compared. ?RESULTS: Totally 371 cases ( male:295 cases; female:76 cases) with mean age was 6. 56±2. 41 years and 6. 08±2. 82 years respectively were in experimental groupe. ln control group, there were 300 cases ( male: 186 cases;female:114 cases) with mean age was 6. 99±3. 01 years and 6. 56±2. 80 years respectively. The average of blood lead level of boys in experimental group was 63. 82 ±24. 56μg/L and 53. 98±15. 42μg/L in control group. The average of blood lead level in experimental group was higher than that in control group. The difference between of the two group was statistically significant (χ2=16. 96, P6 years children were 48. 73±11. 67μg/L, 51. 39 ± 14. 87μg/L, 52. 98 ± 14. 45μg/L respectively. ln expirement group, the results were 56. 57±17. 89μg/L, 59. 92±18. 46μg/L and 67. 00±32. 55μg/L in 6 children, respectively. There was no significant difference with 6 years children were statistically significant (χ2 = 9. 62, P = 0. 008 ) and (χ2 = 19. 22, P = 0. 000 ) respectively. The blood lead level were divided into three grades: 100μg/L, and relative risk (RR) were 0. 65, 1. 22, and 10. 11 respectively. ?CONCLUSlON: Blood lead level of experimental group is higher than that of control group. The relationship between blood lead level and abnormal eye blinking in children is positive correlation.

Diagnosis and treatment of slow transit constipation complicated with adult megacolon / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To summarize the experience in the management of slow transit constipation complicated with adult megacolon.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 32 above patients admitted between October 2007 and June 2011 were retrospectively studied.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Thirty-two patients were diagnosed as slow transit constipation according to the Roman III criteria. There were 15 males and 17 females aging from 18 to 56 years old. Sitz marker study showed prolonged colon transit time. Barium enema and defecography suggested bowel stricture locating in the transverse colon (n=3), descending colon (n=4), rectum (n=20), and concurrent transverse colon or descending colon and rectum (n=5). Anal manometry showed that anorectal inhibitory reflex was absent in 23 patients, while the other 9 patients were normal. Procedures performed included segmental colectomy and side-to-side anastomosis (n=1), subtotal colectomy and modified Duhamel anastomosis (n=16), total colectomy and ileal J-pouch Duhamel anastomosis (n=9). There were no postoperative complications. During the follow-up ranging from 3 to 47 months, defacatory function was excellent in 18, good in 9, and moderate in 5 patients.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Adult megacolon should be considered differential diagnosis of slow transit constipation. Detailed history taking and thorough evaluation of testing is the key to obviate misdiagnosis. Extent of resection should include the diseased dilated colon and slow transit colon.</p>
