肺心病患者血清碱性成纤维细胞生长因子水平的变化及其与肺动脉压的关系

目的　探讨碱性成纤维细胞生长因子 (b FGF)在低氧性肺动脉高压发病中的作用。方法　采用酶联免疫吸附法对具有低氧性肺动脉高压的肺心病患者 2 1例、无低氧性肺动脉高压的慢性阻塞性肺疾病 (COPD)患者 2 3例和 2 4例正常人血清 b FGF水平进行检测 ,以多普勒超声心动仪测定肺心病和 COPD患者的平均肺动脉压 (m PAP)。结果　肺心病组 m PAP水平 (33.33± 7.0 3m m Hg)明显高于 COPD组 (13.13± 2 .34mm Hg) ,P<0 .0 0 1;肺心病组血清 b FGF水平 (6 9.84± 16 .2 9pg/m l)明显高于 COPD组 (43.94± 7.5 7pg/ml)和正常对照组(44 .6 4± 6 .31pg/m l) ,P<0 .0 0 1;肺心病血清 b FGF水平与 m PAP之间呈明显正相关 ,r=0 .730 ,P<0 .0 0 1。结论慢性肺心病患者血清 b FGF水平明显升高 ,可能与其慢性低氧性肺动脉高压的形成有一定的关系。     

Discrimination of idiopathic pain syndromes from neurogenic pain syndromes and healthy volunteers by means of clinical rating,personality traits,monoamine metabolites in CSF,serum cortisol,platelet MAO and urinary melatonin

Summary The aim of the present study was to investigate the discriminative power of a series of variables (including determination of depressive symptomatology by means of a visual analogue scale, determination of personality traits by means of the Karolinska Scales of Personality, determination of monoamine metabolites in CSF, platelet MAO activities, serum cortisol before and after dexamethasone suppression and urinary melatonin) in differentiating (a) chronic pain patients from healthy subjects, and (b) patients with idiopathic pain syndromes from patients with neurogenic pain syndromes. Separately each of the measures gave a significant but often low contribution to the discrimination, while a combination of several measures gave a complete discrimination both between healthy subjects and patients with chronic pain syndromes and between patients with idiopathic and neurogenic pain syndromes, respectively.Supported in part by grants from the Swedish Medical Research Council (grants no. 3371, 4145 and 5740) and by a grant from Stiftelsen Söderström-Königska Sjukhemmet     

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and lymphoma in an Iranian fat-tailed sheep: a case report

A 5-year-old Iranian fat-tailed sheep was referred to the Veterinary Clinic of Shiraz University in September 2003 with a history of emaciation, fever, decreased appetite, lethargy and cough. Small cutaneous and subcutaneous nodules were palpable, especially under the ribs on both sides of the thorax. Discrete cutaneous plaques and large scabby lesions were also observed. Very large mammary gland lymph nodes were noticed on palpation. Haematological and serum biochemical values were estimated through standard haematological and biochemical techniques. In this case a normocytic–normochromic anaemia, leukocytosis and lymphocytosis were found. The concentrations of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, cholesterol and the activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) were higher than the values reported for sheep. Necropsy findings revealed that the lymph nodes were affected in most organs. Malignant lymphoma in the kidney, heart, spleen, mammary glands, liver and bone marrow was observed. The histopathological appearance of the affected tissues varied considerably, depending upon the degree of tumour infiltration. According to the history, clinical signs, laboratory findings, necropsy findings and histopathological examination the case was diagnosed as chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and lymphoma.     

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。

Ill-health as a household norm: Evidence from other people's health problems

This paper proposes that an individual's self-assessed health (SAH) does not only suffer from systematic reporting bias and adaptation bias but is also biased owing to confounding health norm effects. Using 13 waves of the British Household Panel Survey covering the period 1991–2005, I show that, while there is a negative and statistically significant correlation between SAH and individuals' own health problem index, this negative effect reduces with the average number of health problems per (other) family member. The relative health bias is small, however, which implies that measures of SAH may not suffer seriously from systematic health norm bias. This is an important finding for researchers working with SAH data as it indicates that we do not have to worry too much about controlling for confounding influences from the health of other household members when estimating SAH regression equations.     

慢性乙型肝炎患者病毒e系统状态与肝纤维化关系的研究

目的:观察慢性乙型肝炎患者乙型肝炎病毒e系统状态和复制指标在肝纤维化发生过程中的变化及其与血清纤维化标志的关系,探讨它们在肝纤维化发生过程中的作用及其可能的临床意义.方法:188例慢性乙型肝炎患者根据肝纤维化程度分为S0～S4期等5组,分别用定量PCR及放免法检测患者血清中HBV-DNA及肝纤维化标志透明质酸、Ⅳ型胶原、Ⅲ型前胶原和层粘连蛋白的含量;HBeAg和抗-HBe采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测,并观察其在不同肝病理纤维化分期时的变化.结果:随着肝纤维化程度加重,血清HBV-DNA含量逐渐升高,从S1期开始显著增加(P＜0.01);而HBeAg阳性率逐渐降低,S3、S4期较S0显著减少(P＜0.05和P＜0.01);抗-HBe阳性率呈相反的变化趋势,在S3和S4期的阳性率明显高于S0期(P＜0.05和P＜0.01).血清HBV-DNA( )HBeAg( )组血清纤维化标志最低,HBV-DNA(-)抗-HBe( )组最高,两者差异有显著性(P＜0.01).结论:HBV复制和e系统状态的改变与肝纤维化程度密切相关,肝内病毒复制标志与血清纤维化标志联合检测,对于判断肝纤维化程度和指导抗病毒治疗有重要的价值.
