Objective
To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery.
Methods
Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively.
Results
The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over.
Conclusion
A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery.

Objective To conduct Meta-analyses on published literatures about the Jianpi Bushen Decoction combined with western medicine for dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB), so as to evaluate its efficacy and safety compared with the western medicine treatment. Methods The following databases such as PubMed (1995 to 2011), EMCC (1995 to 2011), CBM (1995 to 2011), CNKI (1995 to 2011), Wanfang (1989 to 2011) and VIP (1989 to 2011) were searched to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on Jianpi Bushen Decoction combined with western medicine for DUB. The selection of studies, assessment of methodological quality and data extraction were performed independently by two reviewers according to the Cochrane systematic review methods, and Meta-analyses were performed by using RevMan5.0 software. Results A total of 12 RCTs involving 925 cases were included, of which 471 ones were in the experimental group while the other 454 ones were in the control group. Each study was comparable in baseline data, all with reporting of using random methods, but no mention of detailed random methods, blind methods and allocation concealment. The results of Meta-analyses indicated that compared with single therapy of western medicine, Jianpi Bushen Decoction combined with western medicine for DUB was superior in the total effective rate (OR=5.60, 95%CI 3.25 to 9.67, Plt;0.000 01), bleeding recovery rate (OR=3.79, 95%CI 2.70 to 5.32, Plt;0.000 01), and bleeding recurrence rate (OR=0.14, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.42, P=0.000 5), with significant differences. Conclusions The integrated treatment of Jianpi Bushen Decoction and western medicine has certain effects on dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and it may be a promising treatment option. Due to the poor quality and high possibility of bias of the included studies, more well-designed multi-centered RCTs should be performed.
Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of reptilase in the treatment of bleeding due to internal diseases. Methods The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, VIP, and CNKI were searched. The quality of included studies was evaluated and meta-analysis was performed for the results of homogeneous studies. Results Forty studies involving 2 879 participants related to a variety of internal diseases were included. All included studies were inadquate in reporting randomization, concealment of allocation and blinding. Meta-analysis based on included studies showed that reptilase could better alleviate bleeding compared with the control group in intrecranial encephalic hemorrhage (RD 0. 24, 95 % CI 0. 01 to 0.48), hypertension induced intrecranbd hemorrhage (RD -0.20, 95% CI -0. 38 to -0. 03), in hemostasis rate within 24 hours in hemoptysis (RD 0.41, 95% CI 0.17 to 0. 64), in upper alimentary tract hemorrhage ( RD 0.39, 95% CI 0.03 to 0. 76 ), in newborn upper alimentary tract hemorrhage (RD 0.32, 95% CI 0. 23 to 0.41 ). Only one case of hypersensitivity occured in reptilase group. Conclusions Reptilase is an effective and safe hemostasia remedy for hemorrhage of internal diseases. Due to high risk of selection bias and detection bias of included studies, the evidence is not b enough to judge whether reptilase is better than other hemostatics. Our results suggest that further and larger-scale trials of the use of reptilase in the treatment of hemorrhages of internal diseases are needed.
ObjectiveTo analyze the trends and major risk factors of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) disease burden by gender in China and globally from 1990 to 2021, and to predict ICH incidence and mortality in China and globally by gender from 2022 to 2046. MethodsBased on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021), data on ICH in China and globally from 1990 to 2021 were collected. Age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (ASDR) were used to assess ICH disease burden and risk factors by gender. Joinpoint regression models were employed to calculate annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) for trend analysis. The Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was applied to predict ICH incidence and mortality from 2022 to 2046. ResultsFrom 1990 to 2021, ASIR, ASMR, and ASDR for ICH in China and globally showed declining trends across genders (P<0.05). For males in China and globally, the AAPC for ASIR was ?1.63% (95%CI ?1.69% to ?1.57%) and ?1.14% (95%CI ?1.20% to ?1.07%), respectively. For females in China and globally, the AAPC for ASIR was ?2.27% (95%CI ?2.35% to ?2.18%) and ?1.40% (95%CI ?1.40% to ?1.33%), respectively. The AAPC for ASMR in Chinese and global males was ?1.81% (95%CI ?2.07% to ?1.55%) and ?1.29% (95%CI ?1.43% to ?1.15%), respectively, while for females in China and globally, it was ?2.74% (95%CI ?2.94% to ?2.54%) and ?1.69% (95%CI ?1.82% to ?1.55%), respectively. The AAPC for ASDR in Chinese and global males was ?1.91% (95%CI ?2.11% to ?1.72%) and ?1.39% (95%CI ?1.52% to ?1.26%), respectively, and for females in China and globally, it was ?2.93% (95%CI ?3.07% to ?2.79%) and ?1.85% (95%CI ?1.96% to ?1.74%), respectively. By 2046, the predicted ASIR for ICH in Chinese and global males is projected to be 38.08/100 000 and 44.23/100 000, respectively, and 28.27/100 000 and 29.15/100 000 for Chinese and global females. The ASMR is predicted to reach 37.01/100 000 and 68.57/100 000 for Chinese and global males, and 22.39/100 000 and 29.45/100 000 for Chinese and global females, respectively. ConclusionThe disease burden of ICH in China has demonstrated a declining trend, yet it persistently exceeds global averages and exhibits pronounced gender disparities. There is an urgent need to enhance focus on these gender?specific variations and implement precisely targeted interventions tailored to the distinct risk factor profiles of each gender, in order to achieve further reductions in ICH?related disease burden.
