Tityus perijanensis González-Sponga (Scorpiones, Buthidae): molecular assessment of its geographical distribution and venom lethality of Venezuelan populations.

An extensive field survey allowed us to expand the geographical distribution of the scorpion Tityus perijanensis in the Perijá range, western Zulia State, Venezuela, including areas where adult cases of severe scorpionism have been reported. 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing, DL(50) determination, and native PAGE suggest low genetic and venom proteomic divergence across the distribution range. The results also indicate phylogenetic divergence between T. perijanensis and T. discrepans, the species prevalent in northcentral Venezuela. T. perijanensis venom lethality (0.91-0.94 mg/kg) is comparable to that of the Brazilian T. serrulatus and ranks highest among toxic Venezuelan Tityus studied so far. The data indicate that the Perijá range should be included amongst the endemic areas of scorpionism of Venezuela and Colombia.     

酸枣仁提取物急性毒性实验研究

目的 观察酸枣仁醇提取物的急性毒性反应.方法 ①小鼠尾静脉注射不同剂量的酸枣仁醇提取物,连续观察14 d,记录小鼠的急性毒性反应,并计算LD50及LD50 95%可信限;②小鼠灌胃给药,测定一次给予酸枣仁醇提取物的安全剂量.结果 ①静脉注射酸枣仁醇提取物后,部分小鼠出现中毒反应并死亡,测得LD50为27.5 g·kg-1,LD50 95%可信限为25.1～30.1 g·kg-1,死亡动物尸检,其主要脏器未见病理改变.14 d后存活小鼠体重平均增加20.4%,略高于生理盐水组(18.2%).②小鼠灌胃给药(340 g·kg-1,相当于成人一次用量的326倍)后,连续观察14 d,小鼠全部存活,无明显毒性反应,小鼠体重平均增长17.2%.结论 酸枣仁醇提取物毒性很低,临床给药安全可靠.     

低剂量辐射增强小鼠肿瘤基因-放射治疗效应的免疫学机制研究

目的 探讨低剂量辐射全身照射对小鼠Lewis肺癌移植肿瘤基因-放疗方案中的免疫增强作用机制。方法 小鼠右后肢皮下接种Lewis肺癌细胞建立荷瘤模型,基因-放疗组中小鼠肿瘤局部注射由多聚乙烯亚胺包裹的pEgr-IL18-B7.1重组质粒,分别接受由2 Gy 局部照射和0.075 Gy 全身照射组合的不同治疗方案,通过³H-TdR标记方法检测小鼠CTL和NK细胞毒活性,ELISA方法检测TNF-α和IFN-γ分泌活性,观察各治疗组对荷瘤小鼠抗肿瘤免疫的作用。结果 在pEgr-IL18-B7.1基因治疗方案中,单次大剂量辐射局部照射后加多次低剂量全身照射与常规多次大剂量辐射局部照射相比,小鼠CTL和NK细胞毒活性显著增强,TNF-α和IFN-γ分泌活性有不同程度的增高。 结论 低剂量辐射可以通过促进CTL和NK细胞毒效应,上调TNF-α和IFN-γ细胞因子表达,从而增强机体抗肿瘤免疫功能,提高肿瘤基因-放疗的抑瘤效果。     

Safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of recombinant human parathyroid hormone in healthy male Chinese subjects

AIM： To determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic parameters of a new drug recombinant human parathyroid hormone [ rhPTH （1-84）] in healthy male Chinese subjects. METHODS： domly divided Thirty-six healthy male volunteers were rangroups received into 3 groups. The volunteers in these single subcutaneous injection of rhPTH （ 1-84） in a dosage of 1, 2 and 4 μg/kg respectively. Blood samples were obtained before and after administration within 24 hours. The rhPTH concentrations in sennn were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The pharmacokinetic parameters determined with use of standard noncompartmental analysis were the maximum serum concentration （ Cmax ）, the time to attain that concentration （ tmax ）, and the area under the serum concentration-time curve up to 24 hours（ AUC0-24 ） and up to infinity （AUC0-∞）. Dose proportionality of pharmacokinetic parameters （AUC, Cmax of every volunteer of each dosage and A UC was computed from log transformed data） and was examined by mean of analysis of variance （ANOVA） using SPSS software package. In the study, subjects＇ symptoms, objective signs, and vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and body temperature, were checked and 12-lead electrocardiography was recorded before and after drug administration within 24 hours. Routine laboratory tests, including hematology, blood biochemistry, serum electrolyte, and urinalysis, were performed before and after drug administration within at 24 hours.[第一段]     

Acute urticaria and hepatitis complicating high-dose methotrexate therapy

We report an unusual case of anaphylaxis and hepatitic dysfunction in a child with the administration of the twenty-third course of high-dose methotrexate. The latter had been used as an adjuvant to prevent pulmonary metastases and the prior 22 courses had been well tolerated. An attempt to reinstate methotrexate after the twenty-third course was again followed by a similar reaction. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

高电压胸部摄影诊断和防护效果研究

作者以体模实验为基础。测定了不同管电压拍摄胸片时的病人剂量，考察了提高管电压对胶片影像质量的影响，结果表明，使用高电压拍摄胸片比使用低电压有利于降低病人剂量，在增加影像信息量，提高肋骨阴影区和纵膈区灶检出率方面更有较大优越性，此外，使用高电压技术不家利于延长Ｘ射线管的使用寿命。     

Growth, bone maturation and pubertal development in children with the EMG-syndrome

In 7 patients (5 girls, 2 boys) with the EMG or Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome, statural growth, bone age (BA), weight and pubertal development were studied longitudinally. Height was above the 90th percentile (%) for chronological age (CA) after age 2 years, reaching an average of 2.5 SD above the mean at or after puberty. Adult or attained height also exceeded significantly (P<0.015) parental (genetic) target height by 13.2 cm on the average. In one girl, adult height prognosis (190 cm) could be reduced to an adult height of 183 cm by high-dose estrogen treatment. In most children, growth velocity remained above the 90th % up to 4–6 years of age and normalized thereafter. In all patients studied, bone age was markedly advanced and particularly so during the first 4 years after birth. Weight was above the 90th–97th % during infancy and early childhood and remained there, appropriate or slightly subnormal for height, until adulthood, except for 3 girls who reached and maintained the 50th % during or after puberty. Spontaneous pubertal development occurred within normal limits for CA and around the 50th % for BA. Except for the marked bone age acceleration, the reason for the increased statural growth and adult height in patients with the EMG syndrome is still unknown.     

对儿童X线体检中减少照射剂量的探讨

目的:探讨儿童在X线体检中减少照射剂量的方法。方法:应用东芝500mA遥控X线机、FJ-427型热释光剂量仪等设备,对100名3~5岁儿童体检时,随机分成两个对照组、每组50名,分别接受胸透或平片检查,对检查测得数据均进行统计学处理。结果:胸透时胸部接受的照射剂量是平片的22倍多,其它部位接受的X线散射剂量平均值之比亦在20~30倍之间。结论:在儿童X线体检中应采用常规胸片替代胸透,可以有效地降低其辐射危害。
