The effect of indomethacin and metamizole on ureteral motility and urine flow in sheep

Summary The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of two non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, indomethacin and metamizole, on ureteral peristalsis during acute occlusion similar to the situation in renal colic. In 12 pentobarbital anesthetized sheep, both ureters were cannulated and the frequency of ureteral contractions, urine flow, mean ureteral pressure and blood pressure were recorded during 10-min control and i.v. drug administration periods. Both indomethacin (1–2 mg/kg) and metamizole (60–120 mg/kg) showed a dose dependent reduction in peristaltic frequency without reduction of the mean pressure. In addition, the pressure amplitude of the peristaltic waves was also lowered, particularly with indomethacin. Only indomethacin reduced the urine flow. Arterial blood pressure was elevated by both drugs, particularly after the first dose of indomethacin. It can be concluded that indomethacin and metamizole reduce ureteral peristaltic frequency, probably blocking the impulse transmission at the ureteropelvic junction.For the partial fulfillment of a Master's degree in Pharmacology     

窥视下尿道内切开术治疗尿道狭窄或闭锁

采用窥视下尿道内切开术治疗尿道狭窄或闭锁５３例，其中４８例治疗成功。狭窄闭锁段≤３ｃｍ者，单纯冷刀切开即可；＞３ｃｍ者，冷刀切开后需加电刀切除疤痕组织，扩大尿道，尿道内皮管植入。３６例患者术后随访１～８年（平均４年６个月），２７例排尿通畅，尿流率和性功能正常。本文就操作要点和并发症防治等进行了详细讨论。     

Acro-pectoro-renal field defect with contralateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction was noted in a newborn male infant with acro-pectoro-renal field defect. To our knowledge, this association has not previously been reported. Ultrasonography of the urinary tract should be performed on all children with aplasia of the pectoralis major muscle.     

第Ⅲ段肝管空肠吻合解除肝门部胆管恶性梗阻

肝门部胆管恶性梗阻的治疗仍然十分困难。若不解除胆道梗阻,病人很快因肝细胞功能衰竭而死亡。由于肿瘤在肝门部侵润性生长,直接经肝门的手术往往不可能实现。1980～1993年间,我们采用第Ⅲ段肝管空肠吻合术姑息治疗28例肝门部胆管恶性梗阻的黄疸病人。24例为肝门部胆管癌,2例为胆囊癌,2例为胃癌肝门部淋巴结转移。术后19例病人恢复顺利;5例发生并发症,4例病人手术后死亡。24例存活病人中,19例黄疸完全消退3月以上,手术有效率为79％。4例黄疸再次出现,2例因胆管炎需要入院治疗。作者认为:第Ⅲ段肝管空肠吻合术能有效解除不能切除的肝门部恶性肿瘤病人的胆道梗阻。     

女性膀胱颈部梗阻的诊断与治疗

为探讨女性膀胱颈部梗阻的病因、诊断及治疗方法。总结１９８１年５月～１９９６年６月收治女性膀胱颈部梗阻病例３２例。２９例经手术治疗，其中２例行膀胱颈ＹＶ成形术，２７例经尿道膀胱颈部后唇切除术，效果满意。结果认为，女性膀胱颈部梗阻病因为纤维组织增生和慢性炎症所致；尿流率检查是客观评价排尿状况的指标；膀胱镜检查为可靠的诊断手段；经尿道膀胱颈部后唇切除为有效的治疗方法。     

BILIARY HYPERPRESSURE IN RAT EXTRAHEPATIC CHOLESTASIS ALTERS HORSERADISH PEROXIDASE BILIARY EXCRETION

1. The authors investigated the effect of two extrahepatic cholestasis models (one by bile duct ligation and the other by choledocho-jugular fistula) on the hepatic clearance of horseradish peroxidase in male Sprague-Dawley rats divided into four groups. 2. In groups A (n = 5 rats) and B (n = 5), bile duct ligation was performed, while a choledocho-jugular fistula was created in groups C (n = 5) and D (n= 7). A 10 mg intravenous bolus of horseradish peroxidase was injected after 24 h (groups A and C), 48 h (groups B and D) or 1 h (Group E; five sham-operated rats). Serum and bile samples were then serially collected for 2 h. 3. In all groups, serum horseradish peroxidase levels increased soon after injection and then rapidly decreased, the curves being similar. Biliary excretion increased for 30 min and then slowly decreased. The highest horseradish peroxidase biliary concentrations and outputs were found in Group B followed by Group A; both groups had significantly higher levels than Group E. No difference was found between horseradish peroxidase biliary excretion of groups C and D and that of sham-operated rats. 4. When each group was considered separately, sampling times correlated with the corresponding ratios of bile/ plasma HRP. Significant differences were found between the relative slopes of groups A, B and E, but not between those of groups C, D and E. 5. In conclusion, bile duct obstruction greatly affects the plasma-bile transfer of fluid phase markers, such as horseradish peroxidase, while single retention, caused by choledocho-jugular fistula, has no influence. The increased biliary hyperpressure related to the duration of cholestasis may account for the degree of horseradish peroxidase transfer which, in turn, probably depends on an enhanced paracellular passage.     

Paediatric dacryocystorhinostomy

Of 258 cases of dacryocystorhinostomy performed on children in the period September 1981 to September 1991, 130 were for simple, unresolved congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Other indications for surgery included punctal agenesis, lacrimal fistula, post-traumatic and post-inflammatory canalicular obstruction. Of 177 children without canalicular pathology, 171 (96%) were relieved of symptoms with one operation, without canalicular intubation. Of 81 cases with canalicular disease, 55 of 70 (79%) who underwent DCR plus canalicular intubation, and 10 of 11 who underwent DCR plus Lester-Jones tube, were substantially improved with one operation. No child required peroperative or postoperative blood transfusion. Dacryocystorhinostomy in childhood, in experienced surgical hands, is a safe procedure, achieving relief of symptoms in most cases, particularly in the absence of canalicular disease.     

核因子-κB与创伤的关系及其在法医病理学中的应用

损伤时间推断是法医病理学的一个研究热点和难点。核因子-κB(NF-κB)是一种核转录调节蛋白,参与多种炎性介质的转录和调控。近年来研究发现NF-κB与机体创伤后的反应密切相关,其在损伤后的时序性表达可望在法医病理学用于损伤时间推断。

Dysgeusia related to urinary obstruction from benign prostatic disease: a case control and qualitative study

Anecdotal reports suggest that dysgeusia may be related to a variety of systemic factors, including bladder outflow obstruction. This is a hospital-based case-controlled study involving 111 patients who were admitted to urological wards for transurethral resection of the prostate for benign prostatic disease with age- and sex-matched control of 137 subjects. We used a semi-structured questionnaire by a trained interviewer at admission (preoperative), at the postoperative period and at follow-up between 4–6 months (median 5 months). Analysis used unpaired t-test and X₂ test. The incidence of dysgeusia was 22% in the study group and 13% in the control group (P=N.S.). However, strikingly, the dysgeusia in the study group was relieved promptly by relief of urinary obstruction in 100% of cases and did not return within the follow-up period. The mechanism of the dysgeusia associated with dysuria in benign prostatic disease is unknown, but we suggest that the dysgeusia could be from the stress of dysuria or due to a release of an unknown chemical from the urinary tract or an overflow of neural impulse from pontine/cortical micturition centres to the taste centres. An association between dysgeusia and dysuria has not been described before.
