头颈部放射治疗对味觉的损害

放射线治疗是恶性肿瘤的常用治疗手段之一。头颈部放射治疗常引起局部疼痛、口干、味觉障碍等一系列并发症，可不同程度地影响到病人的生活质量以及对治疗的耐受性。近年来，对头颈部放射治疗并发症的研究已引起临床重视。灵敏的味觉是维持良好生活质量的重要条件之一。味觉障碍既是一种客观症状，也是一种主观感受，它不仅直接抑制病人的食欲，导致营养缺失，更可加重其身心负担。本文对头颈部放疗引起味觉损害的相关研究作一综述，侧重介绍味觉损害的发生机制、临床表现、治疗及预防等方面的新进展。     

针灸治疗青光眼概况

综述了针灸治疗青光眼的临床和实验研究进展。临床研究以体针为主，其次还有耳针、灸法、梅花针及挑刺疗法。体针或取单穴观察，或循经取穴、辨证取穴、针药联合、毫针放液或手术联合针刺治疗等。实验研究以观察家兔实验性高眼压眼压变化及血流变为主。临床和实验研究均证实针灸治疗青光眼疗效确切，尤其对开角型青光眼疗效较好，各证型间无显著差异，取穴以经而论以足太阳膀胱经、足少阳胆经、足厥阴肝经为最多；以穴而论取远端穴行间较局部穴睛明为多。

Neonatal seizures

The newborn brain is particularly vulnerable to seizures which are associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcome. The clinical manifestations of seizures in infants differ from those seen in older children and adults. The problem of electro-clinical dissociation, where there is no temporal correspondence between electrical paroxysms and repetitive stereotyped motor phenomena, is common in the newborn. There is at present very little information on which clinicians can base a rational decision about treatment which is often ineffective and does not alter neurodevelopmental outcome. This review summarizes current knowledge regarding investigation, treatment and prognosis of neonatal seizures. Received: 19 July 1996 / Accepted: 15 August 1996

Cognitive disorders in patients with occlusive disease of the carotid artery: a systematic review of the literature

We present a systematic review of the literature on the prevalence, nature, severity, course, and causes of cognitive deficits in patients with occlusive disease of the carotid artery prior to surgery (if surgery was under discussion). Searches were carried out on Medline and Psychlit from 1980 to 1999 using neurovascular and psychological index terms, and papers and books were checked for further references. Studies describing neuropsychological assessment of groups of patients with carotid obstruction were included. Eighteen studies were found. We extracted from the papers data on study design, demographic characteristics of patients, clinical diagnosis, carotid obstruction, cerebral imaging, time interval between ischemic episode and neuropsychological assessment, neuropsychological asessment procedures, integration and interpretation of test performances, and conclusions of authors. Fourteen studies concluded that there are cognitive deficits both in patients with symptomatic and in those with asymptomatic carotid obstruction; four studies denied cognitive impairment. There were no differences in patient characteristics, study design, or neuropsychological assessment procedures between the 14 studies that found deficits and the 4 that did not. There are indications for a mild, diffuse, detrimental effect of carotid occlusive disease on cognitive functioning. However, methodological problems prevent a definitive conclusion. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and to ascertain the neurovascular risk factors for and the natural course of cognitive impairment in patients with carotid occlusive disease.

降钙素原的临床诊断价值

降钙素原是有激素活性降钙素的前体物质。在正常人体中降钙素原的血清浓度极低未能检测出，而在严重全身细菌性感染其血清浓度可见明显增高，并且已证实降钙素原是脓毒血症时最早出现的炎症标记物之一。本文就降钙素原的结构，来源，生物学功能及临床应用作一综述。     

对伦理审查委员会(IRB)监管体制的分析与思考

伦理审查委员会自身审查能力的提高与其外部监管是相辅相成,互相促进的.随着我国伦理审查委员会的建立和发展,对IRB的监管体制的相对滞后已经难以满足IRB体系完善和规范化发展的需要.这在我国还是一个崭新的课题.本文试图从我国IRB面临的主要问题、国外IRB监管制度的经验,及其对中国构建IRB监管机制的启示等方面,对这一问题做初步的分析和思考.
