简介：近视眼的发病与多种因素相关,其中最主要的是遗传和环境因素.大量的近视相关研究提示近视的发生是在异常视觉信息的作用下,视网膜、脉络膜内多种神经递质和生长因子的表达发生改变,通过一系列信号传导过程引起巩膜重塑、眼轴延长而成.多种细胞因子通过NMDAR-1/NO-cGMP、TGF-β1/Smad3、JAK-Stat3等信号通路调控近视的形成与发展.本文就影响近视形成的几个主要信号传导通路的研究进展做一综述.

简介：角膜内皮移植是一种针对内皮功能失调患者的靶标性角膜移植术，从萌芽发展至今，已逾半个多世纪，历经几代眼科学者承前启后的摸索和艰难实践，正在一步步朝安全、有效、视力快速康复的方向演进。

简介：阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征（obstnactivesleepapneahypopneasyndrome，OSAHS）的发病机制涉及多方面，其中上气道神经肌肉的调控可能发挥着重要作用。本文对正常人和OSAHS患者在清醒和睡眠状态下的神经肌肉活动进行综述，以阐释上气道神经肌肉调控参与OSAHS发病的可能机制。

简介：今天,我们在这里召开2005年全国防盲工作研讨会。这次会议的主要内容是:分析全国防盲工作面临的形势和挑战,研究开展防盲工作的重点和策略;研究制定2006-2010年全国防盲工作规划。同时,还要对“视觉第一中国行动”二期启动以来的工作进行总结,对中期评估事宜和下一步工作进行部署。两天的时间,任务还是比较重的,我希望大家借此机会,广泛交流各地防盲治盲工作情况,借鉴各地有益的工作经验,在充分研讨,制定出我国2006-2010年防盲工作规划的同时,研究探索适合我国国情、进一步推进我国防盲治盲工作的政策措施、有效途径。

简介：儿童盲的诊治是视觉2020的优先治疗区域,因为视力障碍的孩子们将面对的是长达一生的失明。全球各种研究表明,有1/3到1/2的儿童盲是可避免或者可治疗的,白内障是可治疗儿童盲的首位病因。

简介：糖尿病性视网膜病变(Diabeticretinopathy,DR)是最为常见的致盲性眼底病变之一,其发病机制不明.长期以来,早期对于糖尿病性视网膜病变的治疗只是单纯控制血糖,但这并不能完全阻止糖尿病性视网膜病变的进一步发展.因此,研究全身相关因素的影响作用十分重要.近年来,国内外大量研究认为,许多全身因素对糖尿病性视网膜病变发生发展起重要作用.本文综述此方面成果,总结必须严格控制的相关危险因素,为最终通过全身综合干预以早期控制糖尿病性视网膜病变提供思路.

简介：<正>今天许多种类的内窥镜已应用于临床诊断。由于优良的光源和光导系统使得精确的观察成为现实。手术可以在电视屏幕下操作,并获得优质的屏幕影像和内窥镜手术像片资料。1959年HopkinsHH博士发明了棒状透镜,1960年StorzK.在此基础上添加了光导纤维,这些形成了现代内窥镜突破性进展。本文总结了与内窥镜发明者StorzK.的谈话内容。早期的内窥镜是JacksonC.医学博士设计的,在许多年内,这个设计没有进一步改进。培养一个内窥镜医师需要许多年时间在实验室用很讲究的方

简介：近十几年来，医务工作者与科学工程技术人员密切配合，研发了多种类型的外科手术机器人系统。在国外，每年都有大量的心外科和泌尿外科手术通过机器人完成。一些有预见性的耳鼻喉科医师也对这项新技术进行了积极的探索，展示了令人兴奋的前景。
