The recent years has witnessed the fast growing number of cataract patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). The complexity and diversity of DM-related ocular complications has made the cataract treatment of such patients intractable and easily ignored. Cataract surgery has become an essential part of the comprehensive treatment of diabetic ophthalmopathy. Therefore, it is more necessary to implement proper perioperative management. In this article, we discuss the preoperative blood glucose control and the prevention of infective endophthalmitis. Moreover, the importance of ocular surface health and the strategy-making in the patients with diabetic retinopathy are elaborated. We also emphasize the details of surgical techniques and postoperative follow-up. We strive to create a holistic concept throughout the process of diagnosis and treatment with an individualized and standardized view, so that the concurrence of cataract and DM may not be a challenge in the future.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology, this article reviews the development of cataract surgery and intraocular lenses, aiming to help better understand the key points and breakthroughs in cataract diagnosis and treatment in our country at various historical periods, and to encourage the new generation of ophthalmologists to work hard to further promote the progress of ophthalmology in China. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2020, 56 321-324).Objective To prospectively explore the relationship between resting heart rate (RHR) and risk of new-onset heart failure. Methods It was a prospective cohort study. People who attended the physical examination of Kailuan Group Company in 2006 and with complete electrocardiography (ECG) recordings were eligible for this study. A total of 88 879 participants aged 18 years old or more who were free of arrhythmia, a prior history of heart failure and were not treated with β-blocker were included. Participants were divided into 5 groups according to the quintiles of RHR at baseline (Q(1) group, 40-60 beats/minutes (n=18 168) ; Q(2) group, 67-70 beats/minutes (n=18 970) ; Q(3) group, 71-74 beats/minutes (n=13 583) ; Q(4) group, 75-80 beats/minutes (n=22 739) ; and Q(5) group,>80 beats/minutes (n=15 419) ) .The general clinical data and laboratory test results were collected. The outcome was the first occurrence of heart failure at the end of follow-up (December 31, 2016) .We used Cox regression model to examine thefailure in this cohort.Objective To explore the role and mechanism of aging pathway in patent ductus arteriosus closure of rats. Methods Thirty outbreeding Sprague Dawley rats(20 females, 10-15 weeks old, 270-330 g) underwent random mating and conception. The primary Ductus Arteriosus smooth muscle cells (DASMCs) of pregnant 19 days(E19 group), 21 days(E21 group) and newborn(Day0 group) fetus were extracted and cultured. mRNA expression of cell senescence related markers p16, 21 and 53 genes in each group were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(RT-PCR) after 48 hours culture. After hypoxic culture on DASMCs for 3 days, the DASMCs were divided into 3 groups hypoxic control group(G0 group), 3 hours normal oxygen concentration treatment group(G3 group) and 6 hours normal oxygen concentration treatment group(G6 group). After intervention, mRNA expression of p16, 21 and 53 RT-PCR was detected. The DASMCs of newborn rats(Day0 group) were extracted and divided into 3 groupslow-oxygen culture control group, low-oxygen+siRNA culture group (P less then 0.01). Conclusion The expression of senescence marker of DASMCs decreases with the birth in rats duri
