Anterior mediastinal immature teratoma with precocious puberty in a child with Klinefelter syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Klinefelter syndrome occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 males. A 4-year-old boy presented with precocious puberty and an anterior mediastinal mass. Serum alpha-fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin levels were mildly increased. Computed tomography revealed a germ cell tumor (GCT) of the mediastinum. Complete resection of the tumor was performed. Histologic analysis revealed an immature teratoma. Males with Klinefelter syndrome develop GCTs at a rate 50 times higher than unaffected males. This case report calls attention to the need to rule out Klinefelter syndrome in boys who present with precocious puberty and a mediastinal GCT.     

核磁共振法测定非离子表面活性剂 HLB 值的研究 2.几种混合体系 HLB 值的测定与计算

本文应用核磁共振法(NMR)测定了几种混合体系的 HLB 值与混合体系中各组分的 HLB 值。实验结果表明,混合体系中各组分在核磁共振图谱中的积分曲线高度也具有加和性。混合体系的 HLB 值是体系中各组分 HLB 值的加权平均值。因此,对混合体系的 HLB 值可以应用 NMR 法直接测定,也可应用 NMR 法测定各组分的 HLB值,通过计算求得,计算值与实测值完全一致。     

洛沙坦对肥胖Zucker大鼠肾组织环氧化酶2表达的影响

目的 探讨血管紧张素Ⅱ(AngⅡ)1型受体拮抗剂(ARB)洛沙坦对代谢综合征(MS)肾组织环氧化酶2(COX-2)表达的影响及其机制。 方法 把7周大的MS模型肥胖Zucker大鼠随机分成洛沙坦处理组和未处理组，以瘦Zucker大鼠为对照组，连续给药4个月后观察肾组织内COX-2的表达。另外，用AngⅡ刺激6 h的系膜细胞和用从微型渗透泵灌注AngⅡ 5 d的C57BL/6小鼠肾脏提取的肾皮质，观察COX-2的表达。采用RT-PCR和Western印迹法分别检测COX-2 mRNA和蛋白的表达。 结果 洛沙坦可阻止肥胖Zucker大鼠肾组织内COX-2表达增加。AngⅡ直接刺激可以诱导系膜细胞和肾组织内COX-2表达增加。 结论 AngⅡ可以调控MS肾组织内COX-2表达增加。ARB可以通过抑制COX-2的表达保护MS肾脏，这对应用非COX-2抑制剂来保护MS肾脏具有重要的意义。     

Preload-induced curvilinearity of left ventricular end-systolic pressure-volume relations. Effects on derived indexes in closed-chest dogs

End-systolic pressure-volume relations (ESPVRs) were analyzed in 10 closed-chest autonomically blocked dogs before and after volume loading that restored end-diastolic volume to its value measured in the control conscious state. Dogs had been previously instrumented with a left ventricular pressure micromanometer and ultrasonic crystals for measurements of major, anteroposterior, and septum-free wall diameters. Left ventricular volume was calculated with an ellipsoidal model in the left ventricular cavity. ESPVRs obtained during caval occlusion after volume loading were curvilinear as shown by the division of the relation into two parts. The initial part of the relation had a significantly smaller ESPVR slope (Ees, 12.0 +/- 1.8 mm Hg/ml) and ESPVR volume-axis intercept (Vd, - 3.5 +/- 0.8 ml) than the final part of the relation (19.5 +/- 3.1 mm Hg/ml and 0.0 +/- 0.6 ml, respectively, p less than 0.01). The end-diastolic volume-peak dP/dt relation showed a similar curvilinearity when end-diastolic volumes were larger than 1.5-1.7 times the minimal end-diastolic volume reached during caval occlusion. ESPVRs were not different during aortic constriction and caval occlusion when end-diastolic volume was small. In contrast, with large end-diastolic volumes, Ees and Vd were significantly smaller during caval occlusion than during aortic constriction. The final part of ESPVR (with small end-diastolic volume) had the same slope and intercept as that during aortic constriction. We conclude that preload produces a curvilinearity of ESPVR that significantly modifies derived indexes when the range of preload changes is large.     

中药熏洗治疗膝关节骨性关节炎的Meta分析

为运用循证医学方法对中药熏洗治疗膝骨性关节炎（OA）的临床疗效及安全性进行系统评价和Meta分析。全面收集了中药熏洗治疗OA的文献资料。在严格质量评价基础上，对研究结果进行定性分析。合并各篇优、良为阳性结果，中、差为阴性结果。利用RevMan4．1软件对多个研究结果的总体疗效进行固定效应模型的Meta分析，并进行敏感性分析。用漏斗图表示发表性偏倚。结果显示，中药熏洗治疗OA的效应值OR=2．68.95％可信区间为[1．82，3．95]；敏感性分析显示效应值稳定；漏斗图图形不对称；无中药熏洗不良反应的报道。表明中药熏洗治疗OA有一定的疗效，由于漏斗图提示存在发表性偏倚，加上现有临床研究存在的方法学问题，现在的研究结论有一定的局限性，欲得出公认的结论，尚有待进行设计严谨的多中心、随机对照试验。
