Abstract
Blastocystis hominis is a common parasitic protozoa in human and animal intestines; however, its pathogenicity remains controversial. Construction of animal models is of great significance to investigate the pathogenicity, pathogenic mechanisms and drug screening of B. hominis. Experimental animals, mode of infections, parasite strains and host immune status are important factors affecting the successful modeling of B. hominis infections in animals. Hereby, we review the progress of researches on animal models of B. hominis infections, and summarize the influencing factors and application of animal models of B. hominis infections, in order to provides insights into the selection of animals models of B. hominis infections.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of A1-UV aspheric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation over the postoperative 5 years. Methods: Prospective cohort study. The subjects came from a finished multicenter, randomized and controlled clinical trial with a follow-up period of 1 year from April to November 2012. The clinical research centers were Beijing Tongren Eye Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, Peking University Third Hospital, Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital, and Daping Hospital of Army Medical University. Cataract patients in the experimental group were implanted with A1-UV type IOL, while cataract patients in the control group were implanted with SN60WF type IOL, and monocular patients were enrolled. From April to May 2018, patients enrolled in the previous study were recalled for follow-up and continued observation. The visual acuity, spherical equivalent, postoperative complications, non-contact intraocular pressure and subjective evaluation results were statistically analyzed preoperatively, at 1 to 2 days, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 5 years after operation. The main statistical methods included Mann Whitney U test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, independent sample t test, chi square test and Fisher exact test. Results: A total of 42 subjects (22 in the experimental group and 20 in the control group) completed 5-year continuous observation. Among the 42 subjects, 28 were female and 14 were male. The age was (70±9) years, and the time from surgery to recall was (5.77±0.19) years. The age, gender distribution, left/right eye distribution, axial length, IOL power and nucleus hardness classification data of the experimental group and the control group were balanced and comparable (all P>0.05). At different visiting time points, there was no significant difference in the best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), best corrected near visual acuity (BCNVA), uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA) and uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA) between the groups (all P>0.05). At 5 years after operation, the UCDVA, BCDVA and BCNVA of the two groups were significantly improved compared with the baseline [all P<0.01; UCDVA was improved from 0.75 (0.30 to 1.30) to 0.10 (-0.10 to 0.70) in the experimental group and from 0.75 (0.30 to 1.60) to 0.20 (-0.10 to 0.80) in the control group; BCDVA was from 0.60 (0.10 to 1.00) to 0.00 (-0.10 to 0.54) in the experimental group and from 0.60 (0.10 to 1.60) to 0.10 (-0.10 to 0.50) in the control group; BCNVA was from 0.55 (0.00 to 1.10) to 0.10 (-0.10 to 0.60) in the experimental group and from 0.55 (0.10 to 1.60) to 0.10 (-0.20 to 0.60) in the control group], but there was no significant change in the UCNVA (both P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the spherical equivalent, intraocular pressure, subjective evaluation of visual adverse symptoms, distance vision spectacle independence and comprehensive evaluation of satisfaction between the groups (all P>0.05). In the experimental group, one eye (4.5%) had an abnormal pupil, one eye (4.5%) had an abnormal IOL with a few particles on the surface of the IOL but no glistening, and 3 eyes (13.6%) had posterior capsular opacification (PCO); in the control group, one eye (5.0%) had an abnormal cornea, five eyes (25.0%) had abnormal IOLs [one eye (5.0%) had IOL calcification, and four eyes (20.0%) had IOL glistening], and one eye (5.0%) had PCO with posterior capsular folds and IOL tilt. There was no significant difference in PCO and IOL abnormality between the two groups (both P>0.05), but there was significant difference in the occurrence of IOL glistening (P=0.04). Conclusion: The long-term effect of A1-UV aspheric IOL on improving the UCDVA is stable and good, with high subjective satisfaction of patients, a low incidence of PCO, no glistening and good biocompatibility, over the postoperative 5 years.

Abstract
Objective: To study the expression levels of secretogranin Ⅲ (SCG3) in the peripheral blood and vitreous of patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods: Cross-sectional research. A total of 77 patients (41 men and 36 women, 77 eyes) received vitrectomy in Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital from May to December 2018, with an average age of (60.75±11.34) years. According to the blood glucose level, diabetes history and fundus status, all the patients were divided into the DR group and the non-diabetic group. According to the patients' blood lipids and body mass index (BMI), patients were further divided into subgroups of high blood lipids, normal blood lipids, high BMI and normal BMI. All patients were tested with eye examinations, height and weight to calculate the BMI, and blood lipid levels in the peripheral blood. The vitreous was collected during the vitrectomy surgery, and the levels of SCG3 in the vitreous and peripheral blood were analyzed by ELISA. All the data were analyzed statistically with Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results: There were 43 patients in the DR group, among whom 25 had hyperlipidemia, 18 had normal blood lipids, 22 had a high BMI, and 21 had a normal BMI. There were 34 patients in the non-diabetic group, among whom 13 had hyperlipidemia, 21 had normal blood lipids, 17 had a high BMI, and 17 had a normal BMI. The level of SCG3 in the DR group [6.02 (4.34, 11.76) ng/ml] was higher than that in the non-diabetic group [4.30 (3.20, 10.78) ng/ml] (Z=-2.339, P =0.019). The level of SCG3 in the hyperlipidemia subgroup of the DR patients [7.94 (5.33, 13.51) ng/ml] was higher than that in the normal blood lipid subgroup of the non-diabetic patients [4.04 (3.12, 7.77) ng/ml] (Z=-3.473, P=0.001), and higher than that in the DR patients without hyperlipidemia [4.45 (3.71, 9.14) ng/ml] (Z=-2.511, P=0.012). The level of SCG3 in the DR patients with a high BMI [7.12 (4.56, 13.12) ng/ml] was higher than that in the non-diabetic patients with a normal BMI [3.53 (3.16, 4.38) ng/ml] (Z=-3.767, P =0.000). The level of SCG3 in the DR patients with a normal BMI [5.72 (4.10, 11.60) ng/ml] was higher than that in the non-diabetic patients with a normal BMI (Z=-2.862, P = 0.004). SCG3 in the plasma was rare or can not be detected. Conclusions: The concentration of SCG3 in the vitreous increase in DR patients. However, SCG3 can not be detected in the healthy vascular system.

Abstract
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FbA), a well characterized glycometabolism enzyme, has been found to participate in other important processes besides the classic catalysis. To understand the important functions of three fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolases from Clonorchis sinensis (CsFbAs, CsFbA-1/2/3) in host-parasite interplay, the open reading frames of CsFbAs were cloned into pET30a (+) vector and the resulting recombinant plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) for expression of the proteins. Purified recombinant CsFbAs proteins (rCsFbAs) were approximately 45.0 kDa on 12% SDS-PAGE and could be probed with each rat anti-rCsFbAs sera by western blotting analysis. ELISA and ligand blot overlay indicated that rCsFbAs of 45.0 kDa as well as native CsFbAs of 39.5 kDa from total worm extracts and excretory-secretory products of Clonorchis sinensis (CsESPs) could bind to human plasminogen, and the binding could be efficiently inhibited by lysine analog ε-aminocaproic acid. Our results suggested that as both the components of CsESPs and the plasminogen binding proteins, three CsFbAs might be involved in preventing the formation of the blood clot so that Clonorchis sinensis could acquire enough nutrients from host tissue for their successful survival and colonization in the host. Our work will provide us with new information about the biological function of three CsFbAs and their roles in hostparasite interplay.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn) overexposure produces long-term cognitive deficits and reduces brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus. However, it remains elusive whether Mn-dependent enhanced alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) expression, suggesting a multifaceted mode of neuronal toxicities, accounts for interference with BDNF/TrkB signaling. In this study, we used C57BL/6J WT and α-Syn knockout (KO) mice to establish a model of manganism and found that Mn-induced impairments in spatial memory and synaptic plasticity were related to the α-Syn protein. In addition, consistent with the long-term potentiation (LTP) impairments that were observed, α-Syn KO relieved Mn-induced degradation of PSD95, phosphorylated CaMKIIα, and downregulated SynGAP protein levels. We transfected HT22 cells with lentivirus (LV)-α-Syn shRNA, followed by BDNF and Mn stimulation. In vitro experiments indicated that α-Syn selectively interacted with TrkB receptors and inhibited BDNF/TrkB signaling, leading to phosphorylation and downregulation of GluN2B. The binding of α-Syn to TrkB and Fyn-mediated phosphorylation of GluN2B were negatively regulated by BDNF. Together, these findings indicate that Mn-dependent enhanced α-Syn expression contributes to further exacerbate BDNF protein-level reduction and to inhibit TrkB/Akt/Fyn signaling, thereby disturbing Fyn-mediated phosphorylation of the NMDA receptor GluN2B subunit at tyrosine. In KO α-Syn mice treated with Mn, spatial memory and LTP impairments were less pronounced than in WT mice. However, the same robust neuronal death was observed as a result of Mn-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
In 2018, the myopia detection rate of children and adolescents aged 5-18 years old in Shaanxi Province was 54.9% (11 060/20 144). The myopia detection rate of girls [58.6%(5 830/9 949)] was higher than that of boys [58.6% (3 416/5 830)] (P<0.001). In children and adolescents, the myopia detection rate increased with the age before their 16 years old, and saw a stable or downward trend after the age of 16. After adjusting the confounding factors, the myopia detection rate of children and adolescents from regions with per capita GDP>100 000 yuan was higherthan that of children and adolescents from regions with per capita GDP<50 000 yuan[OR (95%CI):1.58(1.34-1.87)].

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the status of immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) after mastectomy in Beijing City, Tianjin City and Hebei Province. Methods: A retrospective analysis was made on the data of 382 cases with breast cancer who were treated and followed up successfully with immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy from January 2012 to December 2016 in Beijing City, Tianjin City and Hebei Province. Clinic data of the followed-up 382 cases (all female, age (38.5±4.2) years (range: 24 to 70 years)), including general information, tumor information, sugery methods, and treatments after surgery were collected. The survival status, metastasis,complications and prognosis were followed up. Cosmetic effcet was evalated by Harris method, and life quality by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast scale (FACT-B). χ(2) test was used to compare the difference between year 2012 and year 2013 to 2016. Bonferroni method was used to correct the inspection level, which was 0.05/10=0.005. The trend of IBR rate (ratio of IBR to modified radical mastectomy) from 2013 to 2016 was analyzed by trend χ(2) test. Results: There was 46 cases in stage 0, 152 cases in stage Ⅰ, 165 cases in stage Ⅱ, 19 cases in stage Ⅲ. Twenty-five cases was treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 231 by chemotherapy and 35 by radiotherapy. The proportion of implant reconstruction was 48.7% (186/382), more than expanded of 21.5% (82/382), with latissimus dorsi of 12.0% (46/382), TRAM of 8.9% (34/382), DIEP of 2.1% (8/382), and latissimus plus implant of 6.8% (26/382). According to the Harris standard, the excellent and good rate of the cosmetic effect of the reconstructed breast was 93.7%. The score of FACT-B was 108.20±16.9 (range: 67 to 144) 1 year postoperatively. Compared with 2012, the IBR rate was significant increased, till 2015, the IBR rate was 153/10 000 cases (χ(2)=47.028, P=0.000). Conclusions: There is a significant increase on IBR rate in Beijing City, Tianjin City and Hebei province by year. Most of cases received IBR is stage Ⅰ to Ⅱ. Implant reconstruction is the main reconstructive method. Postoperative cosmetic effects and quality of life are both meet patients' demon.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the difference among expression of aqueous humor proteins in acute primary angle-closure glaucoma (APACG). Methods: Case-control study. The patients with APACG combined cataract (APACG with cataract group) and patients with cataract (cataract group), who had undertaken surgical treatment at the Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital from October 2016 to June2017 were collected. Upon receipt of patient's consent, 50 μl of aqueous humor were collected with 1 ml syringe and No.1 needle through the surgical access during the surgery, and then injected into a sterile collection tube to be stored at -80 ℃. Those proteins extracted from aqueous humor were analyzed by quantitative proteomic mass spectrometry. The differential significance test was performed by Maxquant significances A approach. The differential proteins of the two groups were screened and determined with the conditions of P<0.05 and difference multiple>2. The functions and signal pathway of differential proteins in aqueous humor were annotated in biological big data, on the basis gene ontology (GO) and the Kyoto gene and genomic encyclopedia (KEGG) analyses. Results: There were 3 males and 7 females with an average age of (68±6) years in the APACG group. The cataract group included 2 males and 8 females with an average age of (71±8) years. There were no statistical differences in gender ratio and age between the two groups (both P>0.05). A total of 91 differential proteins were detected in this experiment, including 50 up-regulated proteins (annexinA1, vimentin, S100 calcium binding protein A8, interleukin 6, C reactive protein, laminin β2, etc.) and 41 down-regulated (keratin 85, γ-crystallin D, syntaxin-binding protein 5, semaphoring 4B, matrilin 2, cathepsin O, cadherin 4, semaphoring 3B, platelet-derived growth factor D, transforming growth factor β, etc.). On one hand, the functions of differential proteins involved in many aspects. AnnexinA1, CD163, S100 calcium-binding protein A8, C reactive protein, interleukin 6 are involved in the inflammatory reaction, cadherin 4 and laminin β2 regulate cell adhesion, matrilin 2, vimentin and laminin β2 participate in tissue fibrosis; on the other hand, KEGG analysis showed that the differential proteins participate diverse signaling pathways such as phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-protein kinase B signaling pathway, transformation growth factor β signaling pathway, mitogen activated protein kinase signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, the nuclear factor κ-light chain enhancer of the activated B cells signaling pathway, focal adhension and extracellular matrix receptor interaction pathway and so on. Conclusions: The expression of annexin A1 is significantly up-regulated in the aqueous humor in APACG, while some other factors such as transformation growth factor β, cadherin-4, and matrilin 2 are down-regulated. The change of proteins in aqueous humor is related with the outbreak of APACG. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2019, 55: 687-694).

Abstract
The effects of biological soil crusts (BSC) on vascular plant growth can be positive, neutral or negative, and little information is available on the impacts of different BSC successional stages on vascular plant population dynamics. We analysed seedling emergence, survival, plant growth and reproduction in response to different BSC successional stages (i.e. habitats: bare soil, cyanobacteria, lichen and moss crusts) in natural populations of Echinops gmelinii Turcz. in the Tengger Desert of northwest China. The winter annual E. gmelinii is a dominant pioneer herb after sand stabilisation. During the early stages of BSC succession, the studied populations of E. gmelinii were characterised by high density, plant growth and fecundity. As the BSC succession proceeded beyond moss crusts, the fecundity decreased sharply, which limited seedling recruitment. Differences in seedling survival among the successional stages were not evident, indicating that BSC have little effect on survival in arid desert regions. Moreover, E. gmelinii biomass allocation exhibited low plasticity, and only reproductive allocation was sensitive to the various habitats. Our results further suggest that the negative effects of BSC succession on population dynamics are primarily driven by increasing topsoil water-holding capacity and decreasing rain water infiltration into deeper soil. We conclude that BSC succession drives population dynamics of E. gmelinii, primarily via its effect on soil moisture. The primary cause for E. gmelinii population decline during the moss-dominated stage of BSC succession is decreased fecundity of individual plants, with declining seed mass possibly reducing the success of seedling establishment.

Abstract
Resistance to pyrethroid and organophosphate insecticides has been a growing problem in the management of cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) populations in the Yangtze River and Yellow River valleys of China, but resistance status and mechanisms of H. armigera populations from northeast China are less documented. In this study, a field strain collected from Shenyang in northeast China (SYR) is up to 16-fold more resistant than a susceptible strain (SS) to λ-cyhalothrin, while the resistance level to phoxim remained low (2.6-fold). Synergist tests and enzymatic assays show that increased cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (P450) activity is the main mechanism for λ-cyhalothrin resistance. Eight out of 10 genes from CYP6 and CYP9 subfamilies were significantly overexpressed in the SYR strain, and CYP6AE11 was the mostly overexpressed P450 (59-fold). These results suggest that overexpression of multiple P450 enzymes contributes to λ-cyhalothrin resistance in the SYR strain of H. armigera from northeast China.

Abstract
Little is known about the role of specific delta GST genes in the detoxification of lambda-cyhalothrin in the global quarantine fruit pest codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.). Real-time quantitative PCR shows that CpGSTd3 was ubiquitously expressed at all developmental stages and is most abundant in the larval stage and lowest in the egg stage; the mRNA level of CpGSTd3 is higher in the midgut and Malpighian tubules of fourth-instar larvae and abdomens of adults than in other tissues. Exposure of fourth-instar larvae to an LD10 dosage of lambda-cyhalothrin significantly induced the transcript of CpGSTd3 at 3 h, but the mRNA level was down-regulated after 12 h of treatment. Recombinant CpGSTd3 expressed in Escherichia coli was able to catalyze the conjugation of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and with an IC50 value of 0.65 mM for lambda-cyhalothrin. Metabolism assays indicate that recombinant CpGSTd3 could metabolize lambda-cyhalothrin. These results suggest that CpGSTd3 is probably a lambda-cyhalothrin metabolizing GST in C. pomonella.

Abstract
Lambda-cyhalothrin has long been recommended as an effective insecticide to control the oriental armyworm, Mythimna separata (Walker), a notorious migratory pest of agricultural plants. Previous researches have suggested that survival, development, and reproduction of insects are influenced by sublethal concentrations of insecticides. However, the effects of sublethal concentrations of lambda-cyhalothrin on M. separata are less known. In this study, we determined the toxicity and effects of LC20 and LC50 concentration of lambda-cyhalothrin on development and reproduction of M. separata. Results indicate that LC20 of lambda-cyhalothrin tends to decrease the life traits of M. separate, with a shortening larvae period of offspring and oviposition period, whereas LC50 of lambda-cyhalothrin stimulates daily maximal fecundity and forwards the oviposition peak, suggesting a stimulation of reproduction by LC50 of lambda-cyhalothrin. The M. separata population was increased by an LC50 concentration of lambda-cyhalothrin, resulting in a net reproductive rate (R0) and intrinsic rate of increase (rm) significantly higher than that of the control. Transcripts of vitellogenin (MsVg) and vitellogenin receptor (MsVgR) genes were suppressed at day 1 after emergence of moth which developed from the larvae exposed to LC20 and LC50 of lambda-cyhalothrin, but were significant induced when the moth begin to lay eggs (day 4), with a more remarkable induction by LC50 of lambda-cyhalothrin than those of LC20 of lambda-cyhalothrin. Our results indicate that the observed stimulation of reproduction is therefore the results of up-regulation of MsVg and MsVgR by LC50 of lambda-cyhalothrin.

Abstract
Objective: To report the clinical outcomes and safety profile of 27G(+) transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy (TSV) in eyes with posterior segment disease. Methods: Prospective, interventional case series. Eyes undergoing 27G(+) TSV for a vitreoretinal surgery indication were included from Dec 2015 to Mar 2016. Change in visual acuity and occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative complications with minimum follow-up of 6 weeks were recorded. Results: Eighty-three eyes met the inclusion criteria. Surgical indications included epiretinal membrane (n=27), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (n=17), full-thickness macular hole (n=11), rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with or without proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) (n=8), vitreous hemorrhage(n=7), vitreous opacities (n=7), diabetic macular edema non-response to anti-VEGF agents(n=4), intraocular lens or cataract nucleus dropped into vitreous cavity (n=2). Mean follow-up was 19 weeks (range 6-34 weeks). Visual acuity improved in all cases. The cutter incarcerated with trocar in a vitreous hemorrhage case. There were no other intraoperative complications and no case required sutured at the conclusion of surgery. Postoperative complications included transient ocular hypertension in 2 eyes (2.4%) and transient hypotony in 1 eye (1.2%). No cases of postoperative endophthalmitis, sclerotomy related retinal tears, or choroidal detachments were encountered in the follow-up period. Conclusion: The 27G(+) TSV was effective and safe for varied surgical indications with low rates of intraoperative and postoperative complications. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2018, 54:918-922).

Abstract
Objective: To explore the sensitization features of Cypress pollen in urban area of Beijing and analyze the seasonal changes. Methods: Four thousand two hundred and one patients in Department of Allergy of Beijing Shijitan Hospital during January to December 2017 were enrolled in this study and received skin prick test (SPT) of Cypress extract. Cypress sensitization was divided into two types: mono-sensitization and multiple-sensitization. Difference of sensitization rate between age, gender and visiting month was analyzed by chi-square test. Difference of visiting rate and sensitization rate among each month was analyzed by K-W test. Pearson test was carried out for correlation analysis. Results: Positive rate of Cypress pollen was 32.3% (1 358/4 201) in overall patients in which male had a higher positive rate than female (35.6% vs 30.1%, χ(2)=13.465, P<0.001). The positive rate was highest in age 11-20 years and 31-40 years and then decreased with age (P<0.001). Multi-sensitization was observed in this study with a rate of 27.5% (1 154/4 201) while mono-sensitization of Cypress was only 4.7% (199/4 201). The consultation rate during January to December was positively correlated with SPT positive rate of Cypress pollen (r(2)=0.715 9, P=0.001). The positive rate varied with season with the highest rate in March (53.0%, 316/596), followed by April (36.6%, 208/568). The season peak of positive rate was observed in adults but not children. Mono-sensitization rate varied with one season peak (spring) while multi-sensitization showed two season peaks (spring and autumn). Conclusion: Cypress sensitization is prevalent in urban area of Beijing and is prone to multi-sensitization, which changes with season with the peak in March.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the structure of macular region and prognosis after vitrectomy in idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane patients. Methods: Retrospective case series study. The cases of 74 idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane patients (31 female patients, 43 male patients, aged 68.1±6.9) who received surgery treatment in our hospital during January 2013 and December were collected and analyzed. Ophthalmic routine examination and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have been conducted for all patients prior to operation. All eyes underwent vitecrtomy and macular epiretinal membrane peeling. During the 12 months follow up, the preoperative and postoperative data including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), foveal thickness, changes of morphology in ellipsoid zone were observed and analyzed. All the patients were divided into two groups, continuous group (52 patients) and discontinuous group (22 patients), based on the preoperative continuity status of ellipsoid zone. The data of preoperative macular retinal thickness, the relationship between age and course of the disease, preoperative BCVA and postoperative BCVA were analyzed statistically with repeated ANOVA method. The postoperative BCVA were analyzed statistically with t test mtehod, based on the different grouping of continuity status of ellipsoid zone. Results: The preoperative LogMar BCVA, and the postoperative LogMAR BCVA of 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 12 month after operation were 0.59±0.26, 0.63±0.34, 0.46±0.22, 0.45±0.23, 0.41±0.23 (F=25.122, P<0.05) respectively. The preoperative foveal thickness, and the postoperative foveal thickness of 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 12 month after operation were (468.12±73.07), (371.57±57.09), (320.57±65.88), (294.85±69.36), (283.5±66.56)μm (F=8.802, P<0.05), the difference between the figures are of statistical significance. The postoperative BCVA of continuous group (0.34±0.27) improved significantly, as compared to the BCVA of discontinuous group (0.62±0.24) (t=-4.209, P<0.05). There is no obvious relationship between the degree of preoperative macular edema and postoperative visual function (r=0.015, P> 0.015). Seven patients still have macular edema one year after surgery. Conclusion: The postoperative visual function in patients with idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane has negative correlation with preoperative thickness of fovea, and has positive correlation with continuity of ellipsoid zone.

Abstract
Facing rising global antibiotics resistance, physical membrane-damaging antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent promising antimicrobial agents. Various strategies to design effective hybrid peptides offer many advantages in overcoming the adverse effects of natural AMPs. In this study, hybrid peptides from different species were investigated, and three hybrid antimicrobial peptides, LI, LN, and LC, were designed by combining the typical fragment of human cathelicidin-derived LL37 with either indolicidin, pig nematode cecropin P1 (CP-1) or rat neutrophil peptide-1 (NP-1). In an aqueous solution, all hybrid peptides had an unordered conformation. In simulated membrane conditions, the hybrid peptide LI displayed more β-turn and β-hairpin structures, whereas LN and LC folded into α-helix structures. The three interspecific hybrid peptides LI, LN, and LC exhibited different levels of antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. LI demonstrated the highest antimicrobial activity and cell selectivity. The results of the swimming motility indicated that LI repressed bacterial motility in a concentration-dependent method. Endotoxin binding assay demonstrated that hybrid peptide LI conserved the binding ability to LPS (polyanionic lipopolysaccharides) of its parental peptides. Fluorescence assays, flow cytometry, and SEM further revealed that hybrid peptide LI acted through different bacteriostatic mechanisms than LL37 and indolicidin and that LI killed bacterial cells via membrane damage. In summary, this study demonstrated that hybrid peptide LI produced by interspecific hybrid synthesis possessed strong cell selectivity and is a promising therapeutic candidate for drug-resistant bacteria infection.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) and risk factors for central lymph node metastasis(CLNM) in PTMC. Methods: The data of 900 patients with PTMC initially treated in our hospital from January 2004 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to determine the risk factors for CLNM. Results: CLNM affected 162 (22.9%) of 707 patients treated with central lymph node dissection. Age, maximum tumor size, multifocality, bilaterality, and extracapsular spread (ECS) were significantly correlated with CLNM (all P<0.01). Age<45 years, maximum tumor size>5 mm, multifocality, bilaterality, and extracapsular spread were independently correlated with CLNM. Conclusion: A prophylactic central lymph node dissection should be considered in PTMC patients with age<45 years, maximum tumor size>5 mm, multifocality, bilaterality, and extracapsular spread.

Abstract
Genome editing is a cutting-edge technology that generates DNA double strand breaks at the specific genomic DNA sequence through nuclease recognition and cleavage, and then achieves insertion, replacement, or deletion of the target gene via endogenous DNA repair mechanisms, such as non-homologous end joining, homology directed repair, and homologous recombination. So far, more than 600 human hereditary eye diseases and systemic hereditary diseases with ocular phenotypes have been found. However, most of these diseases are of incompletely elucidated pathogenesis and without effective therapies. Genome editing technology can precisely target and alter the genomes of animals, establish animal models of the hereditary diseases, and elucidate the relationship between the target gene and the disease phenotype, thereby providing a powerful approach to studying the pathogenic mechanisms underlying the hereditary eye diseases. In addition, correction of gene mutations by the genome editing brings a new hope to gene therapy for the hereditary eye diseases. This review introduces the molecular characteristics of 4 major enzymes used in the genome editing, including homing endonucleases, zinc finger nucleases, transcription activator-like effector nucleases, and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/ CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9), and summarizes the current applications of this technology in investigating the pathogenic mechanisms underlying the hereditary eye diseases.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We repaired complete divisions of flexor tendons in zone 2 in 54 fingers using a six-strand core M-Tang repair method. Partial active digital motion started with early passive digital motion carried out first in the first 3-4 weeks after surgery and full range of active motion in later weeks. The patients were followed for 4-27 months. According to Strickland criteria or Tang criteria, 24 (83%) had excellent or good, four fair and one poor results in 28 fingers with follow-up of more than one year. In the other 25 fingers which were followed for less than 12 months, 19 (76%) had excellent and good, four fair and two poor results. There were no repair ruptures. We analysed outcomes against ages, gender, pulley integrity, accompanied injuries and follow-up times. The patients younger than 37 years old, male patients and with their A2 pulley(s) vented there were significantly better outcomes. The patients with longer than one year follow-up had significantly smaller extension deficits than those with less than one year follow-up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
Expressed sequence tags (ETSs) are the sources of microsatellite development. In this study, we isolated and characterized microsatellite markers for Odontobutis potamophila by using Illumina RNA-sequencing. We sequenced a large number of ESTs and screened 200 potential microsatellites. Consequently, a total of 56 novel polymorphic microsatellite repeat markers were identified in thirty-two individuals from a wild population area (Jiande, Zhejiang Province, China). The number of alleles per locus varied from two to eight, the observed heterozygosity (HO) ranged from 0.03571 to 0.9375, and the expected heterozygosity (HE) ranged from 0.14326 to 0.81549. The average number of alleles, HO, and HE were 5.0, 0.4467, and 0.5518, respectively. By the calculation, the range of polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.1177-0.8492. Most of the loci showed moderate or high polymorphism. These newly developed EST-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers would serve as an efficient tool for analyzing population connectivity and provide sufficient information for genetic diversity research, parentage, and molecular breeding of O. potamophila and other fishes with similar genetic relationship.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of stathmin-l on chkl protein expression in cervical cancer cells and the influ- ences on the cells' invasion and tumorigenicity. Suppressed stathmin-l expression in Hela cells and C33A cells by lentiviral vector were utilized. Real time PCR and Western blot were used to examine the expression of chkl. Cell proliferation and invasion were stud- ied using MTT assays and transwell migration assays.The differences of tumorigenicity in vivo were explored using xenograft experi- ments. In addition, stathmin-l expressions in 24 cervical cancer patients were studied without regional lymph nodes metastasis and 16 metastatic patients by immunohistochemistry assays and real time PCR. This study found downregulating stathmin-l reduced chkl ex- pressions and the proliferation and invasion in cervical cancer cells and reduced the tumorigenicity of tumor cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the domestic foldable one-piece aspheric intraocular lens (IOL, Model: A1-UV) for the treatment of cataract. METHODS A prospective randomized controlled clinical research were conducted. One hundred and nineteen cases (119 eyes) of cataract patients were randomly assigned to the study group (58 cases) and the control group (61 cases). The study group were implanted with the domestic made aspheric intraocular lens (Model: A1-UV) and the control group were implanted with imported aspheric intraocular lens (Model: SN60WF, Alcon Laboratories, Inc.). The visual acuity and the slit lamp examination were evaluated 1-2 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year postoperatively. In addition, the contrast sensitivity tests were carried out 3 months, 6 months and 1 year postoperatively. Data were analyzed by chi-square test and independent t-test. RESULTS 100 patients had completed 1 year of follow-up, among which 49 cases were from the study group and 51 cases were from the control group. No severe inflammation or complications associated with intraocular lens were noted in either group within 1 year follow-up. The mean BCDVA, BCNVA, UCDVA, UCNVA(Log MAR) of the study group and the control group were 0.04±0.11, 0.11±0.17, 0.13±0.20, 0.35± 0.19 and 0.07±0.15, 0.15±0.20, 0.18±0.23, 0.41±0.21 at 1 year postoperatively. No statistically significant differences were noted between groups in mean BCDVA, BCNVA, UCDVA, UCNVA (t=-1.39, P=0.166; t=- 1.25, P=0.216; t=-1.06, P=0.292; t=-1.59, P=0.116) at 1 year postoperatively. And there was no significant difference in visual acuity between the two groups (P>0.05) 1-2 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively. The difference of the contrast sensitivity between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05), besides the contrast sensitivity of the study group was significantly better than the control group at 12c/d, 18 c/d under bright light(t=2.18, P=0.031; t=2.67, P=0.009) at 3 months postoperatively. And the mean contrast sensitivity of the study group and the control group at 12c/d, 18 c/d under bright light were 1.31 ± 0.36, 0.86 ± 0.41 and 1.15 ± 0.40, 0.65 ± 0.44 at 3 months postoperatively. CONCLUSION The safety and efficacy of the domestic made foldable one-piece aspheric intraocular lens (Model: A1-UV) for the treatment of cataract is equivalent to the imported aspheric intraocular lens (Model: SN60WF).
