支气管哮喘持续状态下豚鼠气道感觉神经生长相关蛋白43的表达

目的研究支气管哮喘(简称哮喘)过敏性刺激诱发气道感觉神经敏化机制。方法成年雄性豚鼠39只,按随机数字表法分为生理盐水致敏/激发对照组(A组,9只)、卵白蛋白(OVA)致敏/生理盐水激发对照组(B组,9只)、OVA致敏/激发实验组(C组,21只)。A组以生理盐水(0.5ml/只)致敏,B、C组以10%OVA(0.5ml/只)致敏,第10天开始雾化吸入生理盐水(A、B组)或1%OVA(C组)进行激发,每天1次,每次30min,根据实验需要又将C组21只豚鼠分为激发1d组(C1组,6只)、连续激发3d组(C2组,6只)、连续激发5d组(C3组,9只)。利用免疫荧光双标技术结合激光共聚焦扫描显微观察与Westernblot技术,研究生长相关蛋白43(GAP43)在气道神经以及结状神经节、颈静脉神经节内分布与水平及与P物质(SP)和胶质源神经生长因子(GDNF)受体c RET表达神经元关系。结果免疫荧光结果显示,C3组豚鼠气道内GAP43免疫反应阳性神经呈网状分布于大、中支气管内,以黏膜下层为主,部分GAP43阳性神经纤维向黏膜层内延伸;在结状神经节和颈静脉神经节内有大量GAP43免疫阳性神经胞体,在结状神经节内主要与SP免疫阳性胞体共存,在颈静脉神经节内主要与c RET免疫阳性胞体共存。Westernblot结果显示,A、B、C1、C2、C3组GAP43蛋白表达水平吸光度(A)值分别为0.38±0.04、0.41±0.03、0.49±0.05、0.79±0.08、0.76±0.04。C1、C2、C3组分别与A、B组比较差异均有统计学意义(P均0.05);C2组GAP43蛋白表达与C1组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.01),但与C3组GAP43蛋白表达比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论哮喘过敏性刺激能诱发气道感觉神经———SP肽能神经、GDNF敏感性神经纤维与胞体表达GAP43蛋白。

COX-2在系统性红斑狼疮病人PBMC中的表达及意义

目的：检测环氧全酶-2(Cyclooxygenase-2，COX-2)蛋白在系统性红斑狼疮(Systemic lupus erythematosus．SLE)患外周血单核细胞(Peripheral blood monoeytes，PBMC)中的表达情况。探讨COX-2蛋白表达水平与SLE病情活动程度之间的关系。方法：从外周血中分离PBMC后涂片，用免疫组化染色的方法测定COX-2蛋白的表达情况。结果：COX-2蛋白在SLE实验组呈高表达状态，与SLE疾病的活动性之间呈正相关。结论：COX-2的表达与SLE的发病有关，可作为今后辅助治疗措施的目标和病情变化和疗效评价的参考指标之-。     

Benefits of the DICOM Structured Report

Recently, the digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) standard introduced rules for the encoding, transmission, and storage of the imaging diagnostic report. This medical document can be stored and communicated with the images in picture archiving and communication system (PACS). It is a structured document that contains text with links to other data such as images, waveforms, and spatial or temporal coordinates. Its structure, along with its wide use of coded information, enables the semantic understanding of the data that is essential for the Electronic Healthcare Record deployment. In this article, we present DICOM Structured Report (SR) and discuss its benefits. We show how SR enables efficient radiology workflow, improves patient care, optimizes reimbursement, and enhances the radiology ergonomic working conditions. As structured input significantly alters the interpretation process, understanding all its benefits is necessary to support the change.

Clinical features fail to distinguish respiratory infections caused by Branhamella catarrhalis from those caused by Haemophilus influenzae

Branhamella catarrhalis is being isolated with increasing frequency from patients with symptoms and signs of respiratory tract infection. Records of 77 patients were reviewed to define the spectrum of respiratory illness and to compare clinical and laboratory features with those of respiratory infection due to Haemophilus influenzae. Both B catarrhalis and H influenzae caused respiratory infection predominantly in elderly males with underlying heart or lung disease. There were no clinical or laboratory features aside from sputum Gram stain and culture which differentiated the two groups. Although fewer than one-half of each group received antibiotics, no patient developed progressive respiratory disease.     

Bronchial response to breathing dry gas at 3.7 MPa ambient pressure

In diving, pulmonary mechanical function is limited by the increased density of the gas breathed. Breathing cold and dry gas may cause an additional increase in airways resistance. We have measured forced vital capacity, forced expired volume in 1 s (FEV₁) and forced midexpiratory flow rate (FEF_25%–75%) before and after breathing dry or humid gas at 29–32°C during a standardized exercise intensity on a cycle ergometer at an ambient pressure of 3.7 MPa. The atmosphere was a helium and oxygen mixture with a density of 6.8 kg · m^–3. Six professional saturation divers aged 26–37 years participated in the study. There were no significant differences in convective respiratory heat loss between the exposures. The mean evaporative heat loss was 67 W (range 59–89) breathing dry gas and 37 W (range 32–43) breathing humid gas, corresponding to water losses of 1.7 g · min^–1 (range 1.5–2.2) and 0.9 g · min^–1 (range 0.8–1.1), respectively. There was a significant reduction in FEV₁ of 4.6 (SD 3.6)% (P<0.05), and in FEF_25%–75% of 5.8 (SD 4.7)% (P<0.05) after breathing dry gas. There were no changes after breathing humid gas. By warming and humidifying the gas breathed in deep saturation diving bronchoconstriction may be prevented.
