Regulation of fibroblast-induced collagen gel contraction by interleukin-1β

Fibroblasts incorporated within collagen gels induce a cell-mediated contraction of the gel to form a three-dimensional, tissue-like structure by a mechanism thought to mimic wound contraction in vivo . In this study a gel contraction model was used to investigate the ability of fibroblasts derived from adult gingiva, adult skin and fetal skin to organise a collagen matrix. In addition the effects of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) on the contraction process was also investigated. Over the concentration range 5-50 U/ml, IL-1β induced a statistically significant inhibition of gel contraction in all fibroblast cell types ( P <0.05), although fetal fibroblasts appeared least responsive and gingival fibroblasts most responsive to the inhibitory effects of this cytokine. Comparison of gel contraction by the different fibroblast strains indicated that fetal and gingival fibroblasts shared similar contraction kinetics. For the adult skin fibroblasts, three of five strains studied showed significantly diminished levels of gel contraction compared to fetal and gingival cells. This apparent difference in fibroblast phenotype may, at least in part, explain the fetal-like wound healing pattern seen in the oral mucosa.     

Patient readiness for return to home: Discord between expectations and reality

This study examined the interface between acute hospital care and return to home in relation to elderly patients' perceived ability and preparedness to cope at home. Seventy-six (n = 76) elderly patients aged 60 years and over were randomly recruited from a large Queensland hospital and interviewed prior to discharge about their perceived health, functional status and their ‘readiness’ to cope at home. They were followed up at home 7–10 days post-discharge. Comparisons were made between a number of measures at discharge and post-discharge. Although the majority of patients indicated that they would cope very well upon discharge, a large number of patients reported experiencing considerable difficulty with activities of daily living, particularly instrumental activities of daily living prior to and especially after discharge. The self-reported health status of patients similarly deteriorated between discharge and follow-up. Despite a large number of patients experiencing functional limitations, few were referred to hospital or community-based therapy services. Some policy implications are explored.     

Aesthetic refinements in prophylactic mastectomy with immediate reconstruction

Immediate reconstruction of more than 1000 breasts was performed on high-risk patients on whom a prophylactic mastectomy was done. The mastectomy removes as much breast tissue as possible while leaving sufficient skin, and possibly the nipple-areola complex, to enable immediate reconstruction. The creation of symmetrical, well-balanced muscle pockets for the implant is the most important factor in producing satisfactory results in these cases.     

New stand magnifiers do not meet rated levels of performance

A new range of stand magnifiers has been released by the COIL company in the United Kingdom. Examination of these magnifiers reveals that they fail to deliver the rated magnifications labelled prominently on the appliances, as a result of the manufacturer's conformance with the requirements of the German DIN standard and the use of back vertex power (F'_v) rather than equivalent dioptric power (F_m) of the magnifier. In this study we provide information on the optometric parameters of these new stand magnifiers that will assist the more accurate specification of improvements in vision expected from their use.     

PPD为丝裂源作淋巴细胞转化试验对结核性胸膜炎的诊断价值

以结核菌素纯蛋白衍生物(PPD)为丝裂源作淋巴细胞转化试验,检测结核性(17例)和非结核性(14例)胸膜炎患者的外周血淋巴细胞(PBL)和胸腔积液淋巴细胞(PEL)对PPD 的反应性。结果显示:结核性胸膜炎患者无论PPD 皮试是阳性还是阴性,其PEL 的PPD 刺激指数(PPD-SI)都显著高于PBL(P 分别<0.001与<0.01);结核性PEL 的PPD-SI 显著高于非结核性PEL(P<0.001)。提示PPD 胸腔积液淋巴细胞转化试验可作为诊断结核性胸膜炎的有效方法。

目的　探讨血流动力学检测在老年性牙周病患者中的价值。方法　采用R8Oa锥板旋转式血粘度测试仪 ,测定老年性牙周病患者的血流动力学指标。结果　老年性牙周病患者的血流动力学指标与正常对照组差异有显著性 (P <0 .0 5 ～ 0 .0 0 1)。全血低切粘度、全血低切还原粘度、全血低切相对粘度极显著高于正常对照组 ;全血中切粘度、卡松粘度、红细胞刚性指数、红细胞聚集指数 ,差异有高度显著性 ;红细胞压积、纤维蛋白原、全血高切粘度差异也存在着显著性。然而 ,全血高切还原粘度、血浆粘度、红细胞变形指数虽也增高 ,但无统计学差异 (P>0 .0 5 )。结论　老年性牙周病患者的病程中存在着严重的血流动力学改变。     

重组结核分支杆菌16000蛋白抗原(rPA16)的免疫原性研究

目的：研究结核分枝杆菌重组16000蛋白（rPA16)诱发家兔产生抗体的能力并评价其血清学诊断的价值。方法：家兔按注射的抗原及佐剂的不同分组，皮下多点注射分别进行免疫，6次免疫后采血，双向琼脂扩散试验和酶联免疫吸附试验（ELISA）跟踪兔血清抗体效价的时间效应并检测兔血清与所试各类分支杆菌PPD有无交叉反应；同时检测rPA16与各分支杆菌PPD的免疫羊血清的反应，并用rPA16抗原检测人血标本，分析该抗原的临床检测的敏感性和特异性。结果：兔血清抗体效价结果显示：5个月后，加佐剂的抗原组的兔免疫血清仍能检测到抗体，不加佐剂组2个月后血清抗体检测即为阴性，ELISA检测兔免疫血清比双向琼脂扩散方法要更敏感，rPA16抗原加佐剂引起的兔血清抗体滴度最高可达1：6400，不加佐剂组的血清抗体滴度仅为1：400，ELISA法分析抗rPA16的兔血清的特异性表明其特异笥较好，仅与牛、人型结核分支杆菌的PPD呈阳性反应，与其他所试分支杆菌PPD反应均为阴性，同时又分析了rPA16抗原的特异性，与人型PPD相比，该抗原只与所试各类分支杆菌，BCG、牛分支杆菌免疫的血清呈阳性反应，而人型PPD则基本上与结核分支杆菌免疫的血清均呈阳性反应，ELISA检测血清标本结果：肺结核病组中rPA16和PPD检测敏感性分别为64.8%和75.2%；健康组，卡介苗接种阳转健康组，rPA16和PPD检测特异性分别为96.2%,88.5%和94.3%,66.7%。结论：rPA16具有较强的免疫原性和一定的特异性，可能成为结核病血清学诊断试剂之一。     

Tuberculosis of the upper limb joints

Summary Seventy-four cases of tuberculosis of the upper limb joints (sterno-clavicular 1; shoulder 12; elbow 42; wrist 10 and fingers 9), treated by two of the authors, were reviewed. Eighty-seven percent presented at an advanced stage of destruction. The diagnosis was proved in 71 out of 74 cases. In most, the treatment was 6–12 months of chemotherapy, plaster immobilization (in order to prevent or correct deformity) and functional rehabilitation whenever possible. The sterno-clavicular and finger joints were not immobilized. Response to chemotherapy was favourable in 66 of the patients followed up. One relapse occurred at the 18th month.The affected shoulder joints healed with loss of movement, but were not painful. At the elbow, ten patients developed spontaneous bony fusion in the right-angle position, 27 had a useful range of motion and 19 had more than 70° of flexion-extension movement. One patient had an arthrodesis. At the wrist, two patients healed with painful stiffness and an arthrodesis was performed. All the finger lesions healed with painless stiffness which did not interfere much with function because rehabilitation had been started early. The authors believe that conservative management usually gives better results than arthrodesis or excision of the joint.

Résumé Les auteurs rapportent les résultats de leur expérience dans 74 cas d'ostéo-arthrite tuberculeuse du membre supérieur: 1 sterno-claviculaire, 12 scapulo-humérales, 42 coudes, 10 poignets et 9 articulations des doigts, toutes traitées personnellement par les deux auteurs principaux. Sur le plan diagnostique, 87% des patients se présentaient à un stade de destruction avancée. Le diagnostic de certitude fut obtenu dans 71 cas sur 74. Dans la majorité des cas, le traitement a été standardisé: chimiothérapie de 6 à 12 mois, immobilisation plâtrée pour prévenir ou corriger les déformations, suivie de reéducation chaque fois que possible. Les lésions de la sterno-claviculaire et des doigts ne furent pas immobilisées. Les résultats ont été bons en ce qui concerne la chimiothérapie: 66 réponses favorables chez 66 patients suivis. Il y a eu une rechute au 18éme mois. Du point de vue orthopédique, les lésions scapulo-humérales ont guéri avec une raideur de l'épaule toujours importante mais indolore. Au niveau du coude, 10 patients évoluèrent vers la fusion osseuse précoce spontanée, qui se fit à 90° de flexion grâce à l'immobilisation plâtrée; 27 guérirent avec une conservation variable des mouvements du coude dans un secteur fonctionnel et 19 d'entre eux présentaient plus de 70° d'étendue de flexion; 1 patient fut arthrodésé. Au niveau du poignet, 2 patients guérirent avec une raideur douloureuse qui nécessita une arthrodèse. Les lésions des doigts guérirent avec une raideur plus ou moins marquée, bien compensée par la mobilité des autres articulations, conservée intacte par la reéducation. Les auteurs concluent à la meilleure qualité des résultats du traitement conservateur que des classiques interventions d'arthrodèse ou de résection articulaire.
