神经生长因子对小鼠突触体内Ca^2＋水平的调节作用

观察了多次海马内微注射ＮＧＦ对小鼠突触体内游离钙水平的影响，并在离体情况下观察ＮＧＦ对ＥＧＴＡ和ＣａＣｌ２分别造成突触体内低钙和高钙状态的调节作用。结果如下：（１）在体实验表明，一定剂量的ＮＧＦ可显著降低老年小鼠海马突触体内游离钙水平（Ｐ＜００５）；（２）离体实验表明，当突触体游离钙水平降低时，适当剂量的ＮＧＦ具有升高游离钙水平的作用；而突触体内游离钙水平升高时，则ＮＧＦ有降低游离钙水平的作用。提示ＮＧＦ对游离钙水平的双向调节作用可能是ＮＧＦ改善老年性记忆衰退的作用机制。     

Plasma C-peptide levels and clinical remissions in recent-onset type I diabetic patients treated with cyclosporin A and insulin

Remission from insulin dependency in insulin-treated recent-onset type I (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients can result from a partial recovery of insulin secretion, an improvement in tissue sensitivity to insulin, or both. The same hypothesis must be analyzed when remission occurs in cyclosporin A (CsA)-treated patients. In this study, plasma C-peptide levels were serially measured in the basal state and after stimulation in 219 recent-onset type I diabetic patients; 129 received CsA, and all patients were similarly monitored and insulin treated. The results were analyzed in view of the occurrence of remission. Remission was defined as good metabolic control in the absence of hypoglycemic treatment for greater than or equal to 1 mo. Remission occurred in 44% of the CsA-treated group and lasted for mean +/- SE 10.0 +/- 0.9 mo vs. 21.6% in the non-CsA-treated group with a duration of 4.4 +/- 0.8 mo. Plasma C-peptide levels were initially dramatically lower than normal in both groups in the basal and stimulated states. C-peptide levels increased significantly later, at 3 and 6 mo, in both groups. C-peptide values were proportional to the rates of remission in both groups. In the non-CsA-treated group, C-peptide levels later decreased, and these patients inexorably relapsed to insulin dependency. In contrast, in the CsA-treated group, the initial recovery in insulin secretory capacity was maintained over the 18-24 mo of the study. Furthermore, higher remission rates and longer-lasting remission were obtained in patients who reached higher C-peptide levels at the 3rd mo of treatment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

角膜地形图与角膜曲率计在白内障手术前后评价

本文应用计算机辅助的角膜地形图系统TMS-1和角膜曲率计TOPCONOM-4同时测定了200例(278眼)的角膜地形图和中央角膜屈光状态。比较了角膜地形图的模拟角膜曲率SIMK值和角膜曲率计的垂直和水平屈光度。结果显示,白内障术前组116例150眼的SIMK平均值分别为44.22D(垂直轴)和44.26D(水平轴),角膜曲率计的中央屈光度垂直轴平均为44.16D,水平轴为44.23D。统计学处理表明,2种组方法的结果之间差异无显著性(P>0.05),第2种术后组67例90眼的SIMK平均值分别为46.37D(垂直轴)和43.06D(水平轴),角膜曲率计的中央屈光度垂直轴平均为46.09D,水平轴平均为42.88D,统计学处理二种方法的结果之间差异无显著性(P>0.05)。研究提示,角膜地形图系统的模拟角膜曲率SIMK值和角膜曲率计的屈光度无论在白内障手术前还是在手术后其结果是一致的,临床应用具有同等的价值。但是,当角膜中央屈光度异常范围小于3毫米,角膜混浊,角膜严重不规则散光时,角膜曲率计不能满足临床需要。而计算机辅助的角膜地形图系统则具有极大的诊断及检测价值。眼科学报 1994;10:85—89。     

一次采样测定人体咖啡因清除率的研究

咖啡因主要经肝细胞色素Ｐ４５０ＩＡ２代谢，测定其药代动国学参数可反映该Ｐ４５０亚型的活性。本研究显示咖啡因清除相为一级动力学；唾液和血浆的药代动力学参数有良好的相关性；含体重因素的清除率的变异系数比半减期小；用一次采样测定其清除率以８ｈ时点为宜。     

中国汉族群体D4S111位点的遗传多态性研究

目的：研究中国汉族群体中α艾杜糖苷酶基因Ｄ４Ｓ１１１位点的遗传多态性。方法：采用扩增片段长度多态性（ＡｍｐＦＬＰ）分析技术，检测了广州地区汉族无血缘关系健康个体９７名。结果：Ｄ４Ｓ１１１位点，在９７名无关个体中发现５个等位基因和９种基因型，等位基因片段长度为８３０～５１０ｂｐ，基因频率为０００５２～０３６０８，ＰＩＣ为０５９６６，杂合性为０７８。结论：中国汉族群体中Ｄ４Ｓ１１１位点具有高度多态性，并与其它种族间存在差异性。     

SPIR扫描在诊断骨胳肌肉系统疾病中的应用

目的：探讨SPIR脂肪抑制技术在骨胳肌肉系统疾病MRI检查中的诊断价值。材料与方法：对36例骨、关节软组织疾病患者行T1W／SE、T2W／FSE及T2W／SPIR序列扫描，并对后两者进行比较。结果：各种病理性积液呈高信号；损伤性骨髓水肿呈高信号；骨折线呈低信号，如骨折断端出血则呈线状高信号；软组织肿瘤囊性部分呈高信号，实质部分呈中等强度信号；软组织炎症性病变为弥漫性高信号；骨病成骨性改变为低信号；骨髓病变为高信号或混杂等高信号；椎管内占位性病变及半月板损伤SPIR显示不清。结论：SPIR能提高正常组织与病变组织间的对比度，清晰地显示病变组织，作为T1W／SE、T2W／FSE序列的辅助检查，有助于提高骨胳肌肉系统疾病的诊断水平。

丙型肝炎病毒感染对肾移植术后影响的临床研究

OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection on the clinical outcome of kidney transplantation. METHODS: The recipient/graft survival, the incidence of acute/chronic rejection and cause of death in 86 HCV-infected recipients of renal transplantation were compared with those in another 86 recipients without HCV infection. RESULTS: HCV-infected recipients had significantly shorter 5-year survival (74.4%) than those without HCV infection (87.2%, P<0.01). The 1-year (94.2%/90.7% vs 96.8%/96.0%) and 3-year recipient/graft survival rates (88.4%/79.1% vs 90.7%/87.2%), the incidence of acute/chronic rejection (31.3% vs 21.2%, and 12.5% vs 6.5%) and the 5-year graft survival (73.3%/81.4%) were comparable between the two groups (P>0.05). Hepatic disease was identified as the primary cause of mortality. CONCLUSIONS: HCV infection may affect the long-term survival of the recipients with kidney transplantation, and therefore should be considered as a relative contraindication of kidney transplantation.
