Coexistencia de artritis séptica y microcristalina: un reto diagnóstico. A propósito de 25 casos

ObjectiveSeptic arthritis is a medical emergency and crystal-induced arthritis is a risk factor for its development. If both occur simultaneously, crystal-induced arthritis may mask the diagnosis of infection and delay antibiotic therapy.MethodRetrospective analysis of patients with coexistence of septic and crystal-induced arthritis. We included only patients with isolation of crystals in synovial fluid analysis and positive culture of synovial fluid and/or blood culture.ResultsA total of 25 patients (17 men and 8 women) with a mean age of 67 years. The most commonly affected joint was the knee. In synovial fluid cytological studies, the most frequently identified crystals were monosodium urate. Risk factors included diabetes and chronic renal failure. The most frequently isolated germs were methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (48%), methicillin-resistant S. aureus (12%) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (12%). In all, 36% of subjects required surgical drainage (excluding those caused by M. tuberculosis). Clinical outcome was favorable in 56%, although intercurrent complications were usual (40%). Mortality was 8%.ConclusionsCoexistence of septic and crystal-induced arthritis represents a diagnostic challenge and requires a high index of suspicion. Gout was the most prevalent crystal-induced arthritis. S. aureus was the most commonly causative pathogen, with a high rate of methicillin-resistant S. aureus infection. If treated early, the outcome is usually favorable, making synovial fluid microbiological study imperative.     

外泌体在血液肿瘤微环境中的作用及其诊治意义

外泌体是细胞外囊泡的一类主要成分，是正常生理情况下组织细胞间信号传递的重要介质；在多种血液肿瘤研究中发现外泌体是骨髓微环境各成分间相互作用的关键载体，由于其广泛存在并含有特定的核酸、蛋白等分子，外泌体被作为潜在的生物标志物和治疗靶点/载体，在血液肿瘤诊治中的重要性近年正逐步受到关注。     

Influence of respiratory allergy and restless sleep on definite sleep bruxism: a cross-sectional clinical study

ObjectiveThis cross-sectional clinical study evaluated the associations between sociodemographic, occupational, clinical conditions, psychological and sleep quality variables on definite sleep bruxism (SB).MethodsAll records obtained from adults (aged 20–60 years) and the elderly (aged >60 years) who had undergone polysomnography (PSG) at a private medical outpatients’ clinic from July 2017 to February 2018 were reviewed. Data from a questionnaire, based on the criteria of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), were also gathered. Definite SB data pattern distribution was analyzed, and multivariate Poisson regression with robust variance was used to assess the associations between definite SB diagnosis, determined via PSG recordings, and the independent variables. A significance level of 5% was adopted.ResultsA total of 240 individuals were included in the study and the SB prevalence was 7.08% (n = 17). The adjusted Poisson regression analysis revealed association between definitive SB and individuals with respiratory allergy (PR = 3.63; 95% CI:1.01–13; P = 0.047) and restless sleep (PR = 2.97; 95% CI:1.04–8.50; P = 0.042).ConclusionThis study found associations between definite SB and clinical conditions (respiratory allergy) and sleep behavior (restless sleep). Knowledge regarding factors associated with definite SB can contribute to decision making in the clinical setting and management strategies involving a multidisciplinary approach.

目的对儿童血管迷走性晕厥(VVS)的传统诊断程序与新诊断程序进行卫生经济学评价。方法采用回顾分析方法,根据不同的诊断程序(即传统诊断程序和新诊断程序),将1995年1月至2005年5月北京大学第一医院儿科确诊的81例VVS患儿分为2组,分别计算其就诊费用、检查费用、住院日、确诊日等,运用经济学最小成本分析法进行评价。结果新诊断程序的平均就诊费用比传统诊断程序少耗费1668.80元;新诊断程序的平均就诊检查费用比传统诊断程序少耗费1413.30元。结论新诊断程序对确诊儿童血管迷走性晕厥具有良好的经济学效益,值得临床推广。     

腹部恶性纤维组织细胞瘤28例临床分析

目的探讨腹部恶性纤维组织细胞瘤的诊治方法。方法回顾性分析28例腹部恶性纤维组织细胞瘤的临床表现、影像学特征、病理学特点、治疗方法、疗效和预后。结果28例中17例来源于腹膜后，6例来源于腹腔脏器，3例来源于肠系膜，2例来源于腹壁，主要临床表现为明显消瘦，体重减轻、腹痛和腹部肿块。B超和CT扫描提示腹部占位性病变。肿瘤≥2个24例，单发4例。根治性切除17例，部分切除11例，术后联合化疗16例，联合放疗14例。术后1、3、5年生存率分别为76．9％，26．9％和3．9％。结论腹部恶性纤维组织细胞瘤主要来源于腹膜后，常多发，手术切除是首选的治疗方法，术后联合放化疗，可能改善患者预后。     

从病理学看绿色瘤(附细胞学,病理学、影像学图)

目的 　针对绿色瘤诊断的难点 ,提出我们的看法 ,并提出相应的对策。 方法　复习绿色瘤诊断的前人经验 ,搜集我院对该病的诊断体会。 结果 　临床及影像学诊断仅作为协诊 ,血液细胞学及病理免疫组化可确诊。 结论 　提出用肿瘤穿刺物印片或涂片做POX染色或MPO染色 ,如果肿瘤细胞出现POX染色或MPO染色阳性 ,表示其具有粒细胞特征 ,就应该考虑绿色瘤的可能。     

痛经的临床因素分析

目的:痛经的发病率逐年增高,重新分析痛经患者的临床因素,提出新的认识。方法:将1 158例痛经患者的临床资料及超声检查结果进行统计学分析。结果:人工流产史与痛经的发生有密切相关性(P<0.001)。结论:人工流产手术是引起痛经的主要原因。该手术所产生的副作用可对女性生理健康造成严重伤害,必须引起全社会的高度关注。     

足部骨筋膜室综合征早期诊断与治疗

目的:探讨足部骨筋膜室综合征早期诊断与治疗结果。方法:1998年1月-2003年12月收治15例足骨筋膜室综合征患者(均为男性:年龄15～55岁,平均32岁),行足背双切口减压4例,足底内侧减压9例,足内外两侧减压2例。1周后行减张缝合或植皮术。结果:15例随访9～24个月,12例恢复佳,足运动感觉正常;2例有足底感觉减退、足趾麻木;1例遗留前足挛缩、无力,足趾麻木。无爪形趾及功能障碍者。结论:足损伤后,Whiteside法测定组织间隙压力是诊断足骨筋膜室综合征的可靠方法。治疗时足部如有骨折、血肿者,骨筋膜室减张切口,宜选择足底内侧切开效果较好。
