Retinal ischemia is the common pathologic process in many ophthalmic diseases, including ischemic optic neuropathy, retinal artery and vein occlusion, carotid artery obstructive disease, retinopathy of prematurity, chronic diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. It is very important to establish animal models to investigate pathology mechanism and explore the treatment of retinal ischemia disease. At present, the commonly used methods for establishing retinal ischemia animal models include increasing intraocular pressure, ligating of blood vessels, suture method, photochemical method, and drug injection etc. This article summarizes the methods to establish the animal models and analyzes the indication for each animal model. It is expected that the method of establishing a retinal ischemic animal model will be helpful to the experimental design of follow-up retinal ischemia studies.
Objective To systematically review the pharmacoeconomic evaluation related to relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL), and to summarize its model structure, parameter inclusion and other methodological parts for future r/r B-ALL-related interventions, and to provide references for conducting pharmacoeconomic evaluations. Methods PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect relevant literature on the pharmacoeconomic evaluation model of r/r B-ALL from inception to August 6th, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the quality of the included studies. The data on the model structure, methods, and parameter inclusion were then summarized. Results A total of 10 studies using different modeling methods were included. Due to the lack of head-to-head trials, most of the efficacy parameters for the intervention and control groups were derived from different clinical trials and compared indirectly. All studies used quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) as output indicators, and some used life years (LYs) as output indicators and reported the incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER). All studies measured the cost of treatment and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; a few studies also conducted subgroup analysis. Conclusion The number of studies on the economic evaluation of r/r B-ALL is relatively small, and there are large differences in model types, health status, and parameter inclusion. It is suggested that researchers should guarantee the integrity of the report format and normative according to available data choice drug economics evaluation model and establish the reasonable hypothesis under the condition of the patient population heterogeneity uncertainty, perform subgroup analysis especially on the subgroup which did not receive salvage therapy. In the absence of head-to-head clinical trials, appropriate indirect comparison methods are adopted according to the data obtained to reduce methodological differences and improve the quality of relevant pharmacoeconomic research in China.
Objective
To establish an rat model of the Anterior Isc hemic Optic Neuropathy (rAION), and identify its reliability by observing the fundus, fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA),optical coherence tomography (OCT), v isually evoked potential (VEP) and histopathology.
Methods
Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into group Naive with 5 rats, group Laser with 5 rats, group
hematoporphyrin derivative(HPD) with 5 rats, group rAION with 15 rats. All of the right eyes were the experimental eyes and the left ones were the control. after administration of HPD in rats` vena caudalis. The rats in group Laser were treated with a krypton red 647nm/2/3disc spot laser for 120 seconds, the rats in group HPD were treated by administration of HPD in rats` vena caudalis, and the rats in group Na?ve were not treated.
Results
From 1 day to 6 day s after rAION induction, the ON was pale and swollen in the superior part. The ON at 90 days after induction was pale and shrunken.30 minutes after rAION induction, hyperfluoresc ence appeared in the superior part of the optic disc, and the hypofluorescence in the 23rd day. In early FFA, hypofluorescence appeared at the ischemic area of the optic disc, and in midst and later stage the ischemic area revealed hyperflu orescence in the 1st day after rAION induction, the hypofluorescence in midst and later stage in the sixth day after r-AION model. The latent period of F-VEP expanded. The amplitude cut down in the 1-2 days after r-AION induction and did not changed in 35nd day. The surface of optic disc showed higher and rougher tha n the surface of retina in the 6th day after r-AION induction in OCT. After fixation and hematoxylineosin staining of 6-mu;m sections, in high power field the o pt ic disc showed edema with the displacement of retina surrounding the disc 1 day after treatment. Rarefaction and degeneration in the nerve fiber of retina and r eduction of the number of nuclei of ganglion cells in the 23st day after the mod el induction, and the thinning of nerve fiber of the optic disc and its surround ings. In contrast, there was no change in group Na?ve, group Laser and group HPD.
Conclusions
The r-AION model is like the human AION in fundus, FFA, OCT, VEP and histopathology. The rAION model provides the ischemic changes of occurrence of AION, and is helpful for the fundamental study of the AION.

Some complex surgical procedures allow for day surgery benefited from the advancement of the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery and minimally invasive surgical techniques. Shanghai Chest Hospital has set up thoracic day surgery ward incorporating some lung tumor surgeries into day surgery. Through process innovation, model innovation and management innovation, relying on the full-process closed-loop day surgery management system, the day surgery ward runs efficiently. It can help effectively alleviate the difficulty of admission and operation, and improve hospital operation efficiency as well as reduce the economic burden of disease. At the same time, we hope to explore an innovative development path for the possibility of day surgery in complex thoracic surgery, and create a new mode of day surgery that can be replicated and promoted.
Objective To establish a new model on isolated human cadaver testes with ischemiareperfusion (I/R). MethodsThirteen isolated cadaver testes contributed by 13 persons were preserved under 0℃-4℃ hypothermia and then reperfused under 37℃. Histological and histochemical changes were observed. Results4℃ cold ischemia in 12 hours induced only trivial swelling and vascular degeneration of endothelial cells (ECs), obvious pathologic changes occurred after 24 hours, including detachment of ECs, separation between basement membrane and seminiferous epithelium, degeneration and detachment of spermatogenous cell and edema of mesenchyme. Injury was worse along with the prolongation of cold preservation time. Changes of LDH and SDH activities were found by histochemical staining. Reperfusion following 6 hours ischemia induced tissue injury and unusual enzyme activity. All changes were more obvious after reperfusion following 12,18,24 or 36 hours cold ischemia.Conclusion This new model on isolated cadaver testes with ischemiareperfusion is successful, it can substitute other solid organs of human beings for I/R injury study.

It also puts forward the problems existing in the work of assisting Tibet and gives relevant suggestions, aiming to provide a reference for the improvement and perfection of medical aid work in Tibet.
【Abstract】Objective To introduce the birth and development of model of endstage liver disease (MELD) and evaluate its effect on liver transplantation(LT) as a new scoring system. Methods Literatures of MELD applied in LT were analyzed retrospectively. Results MELD scoring system was used for predicting the prognosis of patients with endstage liver disease and the death risk of candidates on waiting LT extensively and the order of organ sharing was determined by its predicable results. Conclusion MELD has been had a successful initial implementation for predicting the shortterm survival probability and mortality in patients with endstage liver disease, and meeting the goal of providing a system of allocation that emphasizes the urgency of the candidate while diminishing the reliance on waiting time, which has been proven to be a powerful tool for auditing the liver allocation system.
A acute partial obstructive hepatocholangitis model by selective ligation and injection of E coli into left hepatic bile duct was successfully founded in rat. Using parameters including mortality, mitochondrial glutamic oxalacetic transaminase and ornithine carbamoytransferase activity, pathological observation and blood culture of bacteria, we evaluated the model. The authors emphasize that this models is superior to the wole-bile-duct-challenged cholangitis model, which is characterized by liver injury.
