PURPOSE:To observe the clinical features of the macular hemorrhage in myopes. METHOD:Twenty-four patients(30 eyes)with myopic macular hemorrhage were examined with slitlamp biomicroscopy,funduscope,A/B ultrasonography,and fundus fluorecein angiography(FFA). The patients were followed up for 3~18 months(average 12 months). RESULTS: Four of 26 eyes with macular hemorrhage examined with FFA were found to be due to choroidal neovaseulature,and they were associated with posterior staphyloma. The other 22 eyes without neovascular change were thought to be simple type,and 19 of them were associated with lacquer cracks. The hemorrhage in simple type cases deminished usually within 1~3 months. CONCLUSION:Myopic macular hemorrhagic eyes of neovascular type resulted usually in recurrent hemorrhage and worse prognosis in visual acuity than those of simple type.

Purpose To investigate nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK ) expression of tumor metastasis suppressor gene nm23 in heterotransplanted model of retinoblastoma(RB) in nude mice,and analyse the correlation between the expression of nm23 gene and the formation and progression of heterotran splanted RB. Methods SP immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of nm23 gene product NDPK in 20 tumors of heter otransplanted RB model and normal retinal tissue. Results The negative staining of nm23/ NDPK was found in normal retinal tissue , whereas 100% expression rate in RB tumors with positive number of 48.73plusmn;2.37. No statistical significance of the expression of nm23/ NDPK was observed between the intraocular growth phase (I~Ⅲ grade) and invasive phase ( Ⅳ~Ⅴ grade)in heterotransplantedRB tumors. Conclusion The function of nm23 gene as a tumor metastasis suppressor in heterotra nsplanted RB tumors was less prominent ,but it may play a role in carcinogen esis and progrssion of RB and may predict poor prognosis.

Objective To assess the change of the motion perception of cones in patients with AMD. Methods Motion perceptions of B、G and R cones of 20 eyes with dry type AMD were isolated by blue,green and red random dots stimulus displayed on the yellow,purple and blue-green background respectively,and keeping equiluminance between stimulus and background. Results The detecting displacement threshold and identifying threshold of motion perception from B,G and R cones were all damaged in eyes with dry type AMD compared with the normal group. Conclusion The abnormal changes of motion perception may reveal preclinical damage of visual function damage in dry type AMD. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 1999, 15: 219-221)
目的 分析眼表面腫塊的發病情況及組織病理學特點。 方法 對2004年1月-2008年12月收治并經病理學證實的326例眼表面腫塊患者的年齡、性別、眼別、腫塊發生部位、腫塊性質及病理類型進行回顧性分析。 結果 326例眼表面腫塊中,良性腫塊264例(81.0%),惡性腫塊62例(19.0%)。良性腫塊中,前5位分別為色素痣67例(25.4)%,迷芽瘤63例(23.9)%,乳頭狀瘤39例(占14.8)%,結膜囊腫25例(9.5)%,炎性肉芽腫20例(7.6)%。惡性腫塊中,前4位分別為鱗狀細胞癌25例(40.3)%,淋巴瘤13例(21.0)%,惡性黑色素瘤12例(19.4)%,原位癌10例(16.1)%。 結論 眼球表面的腫塊有共同的組織細胞起源,腫塊的亞型表現出不同的組織結構、良惡性和好發部位;而同部位的良性、交界性和惡性病變的衍變發展,從某種程度上體現了一個疾病的不同發展階段,三者間的鑒別和明確的病理診斷能為臨床選擇手術時機及手術方式提供依據。
We cultured retinal g[ial cells(RGC)from immature rats and observed the migratory responses to fetal bovine serum(FBS).We found thai FItS stimulats the migration of RGC in a dose response manner. We also observed the inhibition of heparin on RGC cben,otaxis,and found that heparin(10U/ml)decreased significantly the RGC migration stimulated by serum(0%to 10%)(all Plt;0.0001).but 1U/ml of heparin bad no effect on RGC chemotaxis(P=0.5118).These results showed that FBS contains chemoattractants for RGC,and heparin can inhibit RGC chemotaxis stimulated by serum.

Objective To observe the expression of proinflammatory factors messenger RNA(mRNA) in periretinal membrane of proliferative vitreoretinopathy. Methods Fourteen specimens of periretinal membrane were collected during vitrectomy, and they were made into paraffin sections.The presence of mRNA coding for IL-1,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF alpha was observed by in situ hybridization(ISH) with biotin labeled oligonuclotide probes respectively.The eyeball after corneal grafting was made as normal control. Results No expression of proinflammatory factors mRNA was found in normal human retina.Positive staining was present in 5 specimens.In these specimens, IL-1βmRNA was found in 3 specimens and TNFαmRNA was found in 3 specimens,there is 1 specimen expressed IL-8 mRNA and 3 specimens expressed IL-6 mRNA.In these positive specimens, one contained cells expressing mRNA for IL-1βbeta and IL-6, and one exhibited cells expressing mRNA for IL-1β、IL-8 and TNFα,two membranes possessed positive cells for IL-6 and TNFαmRNA, one membrane contained IL-1βmRNA positive cells only. Conclusion These findings suggest that these cytokines may be locally produced by cells infiltrating epiretinal membranes. The expression of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and TNFαmRNA within retinal membranes provides further evidence of a pathogenic role of these cytokines in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

Wistar rats weaned were raised through 10 weeks under cyclic illumination of 12 hours light and 12 hours darkness,with four different fluorescent colour lighting condition:75 lx and 300lx blue light,300 lux white and 300lux pink light to study the change of superoxide dismutases(SOD)and lipid peroxied(LPO)in the retina.This paper shows that photic oxidative reaction reduces SOD in the retina and oxidizes polyunsaturated fatty acids to become LPO and that complex visible light oxidizes retina easier than simple wave lengths visible light does.The shorter the wave lengths of visible light is and the brighter the illumination is the more serious the oxidative damage of the retina is.

Objective To investigate the damage to the retinal cells and apoptosis of retinal cells of rats after ischemia-reperfusion insult. Methods The retinal ischemia-reperfusion model was developed by increasing intraocular pressure to 109725 mm Hg in rat eyes. Morphological changes of the rat eyes were observed by means of routine histopathology with HE staining. Apoptosis of the retina was assayed by both DNA fragmentation gel-electrophoresis and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick end labelling (TUNEL). Results Compared with the normal control, no histopathological changes were revealed in the rat retinas 30 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Retinal ganglion cell layer (RGL) and inner plaxiform layer (IPL) of the retina were observed, however, to become significantly thinner 60 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Together with the pathological changes DNA ladder pattern was detected in the same group of the rats. Further, immunochemical stain of the eye demonstrated that TUNEL positive cells were localized in RGL and IPL of the retina. Conclusion Ischemia-reperfusion insult of the eye may remarkably damage the retina of the rat eye. The damage to the retinal cells is mainly localized within RGL and IPL and apoptosis is the important mechanism of the retinal disorder. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2002, 18: 296-298)
