Effects of topical anti-inflammatory drugs on eosinophil survival primed by epithelial cells. Additive effect of glucocorticoids and nedocromil sodium

Background Eosinophil infiltration is a hallmark of the inflammatory response in rhinitis and in nasal polypcsis. Objective We studied the effect of steroids and nedocromil sodium on eosinophil survival primed by epithelial cells from healthy (nasal mucosa) and inflamed (nasal polyp) respiratory tissue. Methods Blood eosinophils were incubated with increasing concentrations (10^-11 10^-5 M) of topical steroids (fiuticasone propionate, budesonide, triamcinolone acetonide and beclomethasone dipropionate) and/or nedocromil sodium prior to the addition of human epithelial cell conditioned media (HECM), eosinophil viability was measured and IC₅₀ for each drug was calculated. Results All four steroids and nedocromil sodium caused a dose-related inhibition of HECM-induced eosinophil survival. The IC₅₀ of steroids were lower in eosinophils primed by mucosa HECM than on those primed by polyp HECM (fluticasone, 4nM vs 114nM: budesonide, 21 nM vs 280 nM; triamcinolone, 7 nM vs 853 nM; and beclomethasone, 171 nM vs 181 nM). The combined inhibitory effect of 10^-7M budesonide plus 10^-5M nedocromil (43.8 ± 10.8%, P < 0.03) was significantly higher than budesonide (28.5 ± 9.2%) or nedocromil (16.7 ± 5.4%) alone and close to 10^-5M budesonide (52.3 ± 11%). No differences were found in cytokine (IL-8, IL-6, GM-CSF, TNFα, IL-lβ and RANTES) concentrations between HECM from mucosa and polyps. Conclusion These results suggest that topical anti-inflammatory drugs may diminish airway eosinophilic infiltration by decreasing eosinophil viability, that nasal polyp epithelial cell secretions may induce steroid resistance in eosinophils, and that nedocromil sodium has additive effects with steroids.     

Diagnosis of gallbladder perforation in acute acalculous cholecystitis in critically ill patients

In the presence of ascites ultrasound is not appropriate to distinguish between gallbladder perforation and acute acalculous cholecystitis. However, the correct and early diagnosis of gallbladder perforation is important for the treatment and prognosis. We report 4 critically ill patients with ascites. All patients had evidence of gallbladder perforation by ultrasound and underwent cholecystectomy: 2 patients had gallbladder perforation, but 2 had acalculous cholecystitis without perforation. markedly elevated serum alkaline phosphatase was the only discriminating finding indicating gallbladder perforation.     

胆汁胆固醇对胆囊收缩素受体表达的影响

目的：探讨胆汁胆固醇对胆囊收缩素受体（CCK－R）表达的影响。方法 采用放射免疫分析法和受体放射配基结合法检测对照组、高胆固醇组、自然恢复组及治疗组豚鼠门静脉血CCK水平、胆囊CCK－R的最大结合容量（Bmax）和亲和力（Kd），同时观察空腹胆囊体积（FV）、胆囊胆汁量（FB）和餐后胆囊体积（RV）、胆囊胆汁量（RB）及胆囊收缩率（E％）、胆汁胆固醇浓度的变化。结果 与对照组比较，高胆固醇组豚鼠FV、FB增大（P＜0.05），RV、RB也增大，胆囊收缩率下降（P＜0.01），胆汁胆固醇浓度升高（P＜0.05），门静脉血CCK水平及CCK－R的Kd无改变，而CCK－R的Bmax下降（P＜0.01）；治疗组上述各项指标正常。结论 胆汁中的高胆固醇通过下调胆囊CCK－R表达而导致胆囊收缩功能障碍，降低胆汁高胆固醇浓度可以促进胆囊动力功能的恢复。     

665例结肠息肉对比分析

目的探讨不同年龄组患者结肠息肉的临床病理意义。方法回顾性分析本院内镜室11年间资料完整的结肠息肉病例665例,息肉885枚。按年龄分组：〈31岁,31～40岁,41～50岁,51～60岁,〉60岁五段。将不同年龄患者的性别、息肉部位、大小、个数、黏膜情况、是否有蒂、病理类型等参数进行对比,采用卡方检验。结果各年龄组结肠息肉的检出率明显不同,随年龄的增长,息肉的检出率逐渐升高;不同年龄组结肠息肉患者在不同性别、息肉是否有蒂等参数差异无统计学意义（P〉0.05）;而不同年龄组结肠息肉在大小、个数、表面情况、病理类型以及发生部位等参数差异有统计学意义（P〈0.05）。结论年龄〉50岁是结肠息肉癌变的危险因素之一,50岁以上受检者应行全结肠镜检查并完整切除后做病检,定期随访,减少癌变的机会。

Abdominal ultrasonography in the diagnostic work-up in children with recurrent abdominal pain

We report on our experience with routine abdominal ultrasonography in 120 children (aged 3–15 years) with recurrent abdominal pain, in order to determine the diagnostic value of this investigation. Eight children (7%) revealed sonographic abnormalities: gallbladder stone (n = 2), splenomegaly (n = 1) and urogenital abnormalities (n = 5). The recurrent abdominal pain could be explained by these findings in only two (may be three) cases. Conclusion The diagnostic value of abdominal ultra‐sonography in unselected children with recurrent abdominal pain is low. However, the direct visualization of the abdominal structures as being normal may be helpful to the parents and the child in their understanding and acceptance of the benign nature of recurrent abdominal pain.

Dynamic MRI of the gallbladder lesions: Differentiation of benign from malignant

Forty-nine pathologically proven gallbladder lesions were evaluated in 45 patients using dynamic MRI with a spoiled gradient pulse sequence (SPGR), to access the ability of this technique to differentiate benign from malignant gallbladder lesions. The studies were reviewed retrospectively. Signal intensity of the lesions were measured. Twenty-one malignant and 28 benign lesions were classified into three categories: polypoid, diffuse wall thickening, and exophytic. Early and delayed enhancement patterns were evaluated. For the polypoid masses, malignant lesions (n = 9) demonstrated early and prolonged enhancements, whereas benign lesions (n = 14) had early enhancement with subsequent washout (P < .05). For diffuse gallbladder wall thickening, malignant lesions (n = 6) demonstrated early and prolonged enhancement and benign lesions (n = 14) showed relatively slow, prolonged enhancement (P < .05). The exophytic masses (n = 6) all were malignant and demonstrated early and prolonged enhancement. Dynamic MRI can help differentiate benign from malignant gallbladder lesions.
