The synchronization of respiration and swallow sounds with videofluoroscopy during swallowing

Simultaneous recording of adult subjects sipping small amounts of fluid from a cup have been obtained by videofluoroscopy together with feeding respiratory patterns and swallow sounds from the Exeter Dysphagia Assessment Technique (EDAT). These allowed visual representations of respiration and swallow sounds to be superimposed on a videofluoroscopy recording using a split-screen technique. Sequentially numbered, 1/50 sec, half-frame photographic prints were examined and schematic drawings of the relevant radiographs were made. These were superimposed on to the actual EDAT printed chart of the same swallow event, theri exact time relationship with respiration and cervical swallow sounds being preserved. The results allow events in the barium videofluoroscopy to be related to events in the feeding respiratory pattern and swallow sounds recorded by EDAT.     

肿瘤三项标记物在良性和恶性胸液鉴别诊断中的价值

作者测定了44例良恶性胸腔积液患者胸液及血清甲胎蛋白(AFP)、癌胚抗原(CEA)和铁蛋白(Ft)三项肿瘤标记物水平。结果表明:恶性胸腔积液患者的胸液和血清的CEA均明显高于良性胸腔积液。若胸液和血清的CEA以>15ng/ml为诊断界值,其敏感性为55.6％和43.8％,特异性均为100％。恶性胸腔积液患者胸液的Ft高于良性胸腔积液。若胸液的Ft分别以男>480 ng/ml、女>264 ng/ml为诊断界值,其敏感性为70％,特异性为66.7％。故可认为CEA及Ft在良恶性胸液的鉴别诊断中具有一定意义,而AFP在鉴别诊断中则无显著意义。

医疗纠纷的非诉讼解决方式-医疗纠纷ADR

由于在纠纷解决方面所表现出来的简便，经济，快捷，专业性及保密性强等优点，非诉讼纠纷解决方式（又可译为代替性纠纷解决方式）ADR（Alternative Dispute Resolution）逐渐成为许多国家和地区解决民事纠纷的一大趋势，我国现行医疗纠纷解决机制存在着较多的问题，有待于进一步的改善与完善，根据我国所面临的现实情况，将ADR引入医疗纠纷领域是一条快速，有效地解决医疗纠纷的途径，医疗纠纷的非诉讼纠纷解决方式主要包括仲裁，调解与和解，这3种纠纷解决方式各具特点，适用于不同情况下医疗纠纷的解决。     

Electrocatalytic dehalogenation of organohalides on a nickel(II) tetraazamacrocyclic complex-modified graphite felt electrode

Electrocatalytic dehalogenation of organohalides was studied using a nickel(II) tetraazamacrocyclic complex-modified graphite felt electrode. The nickel(II) tetraazamacrocyclic complex-modified graphite felt electrode was prepared by attaching nickel(II) (6-(2′-hydroxyethyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)perchlorate chemically to the carboxyl groups of a thin poly(acrylic acid) layer coated on the graphite felt. The modified electrode gave a reversible electron transfer for the nickel(II)/nickel(I) redox couple in cyclic voltammetry at ?0.95 V versus Ag/AgCl. A preparative electrocatalytic dehalogenation of organohalides was successfully achieved on the modified electrode with an adequate current efficiency (55.6–94.8%), conversion (34.2–100%) and turnover number of the Ni catalyst (667–3333).     

Raman and UV–vis spectroscopic study of polyaniline membranes containing a bulky cationic additive

Electrically conducting soluble polyaniline (PANI), containing different amounts of a bulky lipophilic cationic additive, tridodecylmethylammonium chloride (TDMACl), was studied by Raman (λ_exc=780 nm) and UV–vis spectroscopy. PANI was made simultaneously electrically conducting and soluble with bis[4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl]phosphoric acid in dichloromethane. The PANI membranes were prepared by drop casting on glassy carbon or ITO substrates. Raman and UV–vis measurements were carried out in a 0.1 M CaCl₂ solution at potentials between 400 and ?600 mV (vs. SCE) at pH 6, or alternatively at the open circuit potential at pH 10. The results of Raman, UV–vis and cyclic voltammetric measurements confirm that the incorporation of TDMACl into the PANI membrane facilitates the oxidation and reduction of PANI.

Effect of ACTH,adrenalectomy and the combination treatment on the density of 5-HT2 receptor binding sites in neocortex of rat forebrain and 5-HT2 receptor-mediated wet-dog shake behaviors

The effect of ACTH and/or adrenalectomy on serotonin (5-HT)₂ receptor binding sites was evaluated in the neocortex of rat forebrain. One day after the adrenalectomy or sham operation, ACTH (50 µg/day) was injected subcutaneously into adult male SD rats for 10 consecutive days. Saturation analysis showed that subchronic ACTH treatment significantly increased the B_max values for³H-ketanserin binding without any change in the K_d values. Moreover, this ACTH-induced increase in the B_max values was prevented by adrenalectomy. The concentrations of 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) measured by HPLC-ECD were not altered by these manipulations. Ten-day administration of corticosterone (20 and 50 mg/kg) also increased 5-HT₂ receptor density in the neocortex of rat forebrain. 5-HT₂ (and 5-HT_1C) receptor agonist, (±)DOI-induced wet-dog shakes in ACTH and/or adrenalectomy-treated rats were also examined. Ten-day administration of ACTH enhanced (±)DOI-induced wet-dog shakes and this increase was prevented by adrenalectomy. These results indicate that subchronic adrenocorticotropinadrenal axis activation of rats increases both the number of 5-HT₂ receptors in neocortex of forebrain and the wet-dog shake responses induced by (±)DOI.
