不同压力下人脐带静脉的形态变化

运用扫描电镜和光镜观察了人脐带静脉的形态结构及其在0～8.0kPa 压力下的变化.脐静脉结构类似中等动脉.内皮细胞和内弹力膜的形态随实验压力增大而改变.6.7～7.3kPa是脐静脉内膜的临界破坏压,5.3～6.7kPa 是制备脐静脉作为管道移植材料的最佳压力.     

冠心病患者颈动脉超声检测的临床意义

目的通过分析颈动脉粥样硬化与冠心病的关系探讨颈动脉超声对诊断冠心病的临床意义。方法将120例入选对象分为对照组,稳定性心绞痛(SA)组,不稳定性心绞痛(UA)组,急性心肌梗死(AMI)组,每组30例,分别给予超声检测颈动脉内-中膜厚度(IMT),同时测定3组冠脉造影结果:正常组21例,单支病变组18例,多支病变组29例。结果冠心病患者IMT较正常对照组有显著增厚(P<0.01),且冠脉造影正常组与单支、多支病变组间亦存在显著性差异(P<0.05)。结论颈动脉超声检测对冠心病的预测具有确切的临床意义。     

完全型大动脉错位伴室间隔缺损、肺动脉狭窄的外科治疗

治疗完全型大动脉错位伴室间隔缺损、肺动脉狭窄(TGA/VSD,PS)的手术方式有Rastelli手术、Lecompte手术、Nikaidoh手术、Yamagishi手术以及动脉转位 左心室流出道扩大术等多种术式,Rastelli手术和Lecompte手术损伤小,但远期并发症多;Nikaidoh手术和Yamagishi手术解剖纠治完全,但手术损伤大;动脉转位术 左心室流出道扩大术适应证相对较狭窄。因此,在TGA/VSD,PS的外科治疗上,应根据患者的自身情况和手术指征采取不同的手术方法。现对上述手术术式的优缺点、适应证、禁忌证、疗效和展望进行综述。     

创伤性肾动静脉瘘的介入治疗

目的 评价用介入技术治疗创伤性肾动静脉瘘(RAVFs)的安全性和疗效。方法 对8例不适宜做外科治疗的RAVFs患者进行了介入治疗，其中外伤性损伤4例，医源性损伤4例。6例行经导管超选择性肾动脉内钢丝圈栓塞术，2例行被覆膜支架置入患侧肾动脉内封闭瘘口。结果 血管造影显示肾内型动静脉瘘4例，累及肾动脉段-亚段级分支；主干(肾外)型动静脉瘘4例。治疗均获成功，治疗结束时复查血管造影显示瘘口被封闭。轻微并发症1例。医源性RAVFs患者术后失血症状迅速改善，肉眼血尿消失；4例术前存在心脏负荷过度症状患者，闭塞动静脉瘘后症状迅速改善，血管杂音消失。术后肾功能测定均属正常范围，其中2例肾动脉被覆膜支架置入患者，同位素肾扫描显示患侧肾脏形态、功能正常。术后随访10～42个月，2例分别于术后10，18个月死于与RAVFs无关的疾病。6例仍然生存，一般情况良好，未再针对RAVFs进行外科或介入治疗。结论 介入技术，包括经导管超选择性肾动脉内栓塞术和被覆膜支架置入术，是治疗创伤性、复杂型RAVFs的安全、有效的方法。     

Verbal Working Memory and Atherosclerosis in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease: An fMRI study

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intimal-medial thickening (IMT) of the carotid wall is an accepted peripheral marker of atherosclerosis. It is associated with increased risk for myocardial infarction and stroke, and lower attention-executive-psychomotor functioning. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between IMT and brain activity during a verbal working memory (VWM) task in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS: Thirteen CVD patients underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during a 2-Back VWM task, and B-mode ultrasound of the carotid arteries. IMT was calculated using an automated algorithm based on a validated edge-detection technique. The relationship between IMT and 2-Back-related brain activity was modeled using partial correlations controlling for age and small vessel disease as measured by white matter signal hyperintensities on MRI (WMH). RESULTS: Higher IMT was associated with lower 2-Back-related signal intensity and in the right middle frontal gyrus, independent of age and WMH. CONCLUSIONS: IMT may be one mechanism contributing to brain dysfunction in CVD. The blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) contrast appears to be highly sensitive to peripheral vascular health as measured by IMT. Future studies should examine the sensitivity and specificity of the BOLD response for predicting cognitive decline in CVD.     

肝动脉解剖变异影像学研究

目的用数字减影血管造影(DSA)和CT血管造影(CTA)进一步探讨肝动脉解剖变异的种类、发生率及特点。方法回顾分析1000例因肝脏疾病而行DSA检查患者的临床资料、肝动脉的DSA,以及其中的32例肝动脉解剖变异的CTA表现。观察肝动脉的起源、走行、分布情况,并分别统计其变异类型和发生率。结果1000例肝动脉造影中,正常型727例,占72.7%;肝动脉变异273例,占27.3%。273例肝动脉变异中属于Michels分型的148例,占14.8%。Michels分型未包括在内者为125例,占12.5%。其中肝总动脉分叉变异54例,占5.4%,肝动脉起源变异214例,占21.4%,肝总动脉分叉 肝动脉起源变异5例,占0.5%。以上变异合并多种变异共存21例,占2.1%。结论肝动脉解剖变异的种类具有多样性、复杂性。除DSA外,CTA亦可显示肝动脉解剖变异。肝胆外科和影像科医师了解肝动脉解剖变异对于术前制定手术方案、提高诊断准确性等有重要意义。     

Coronary computed tomography angiography: principles of contrast material administration

A conceptual framework to approach the application of contrast media in computed tomography angiography (CTA) is discussed. With an adequate conceptual framework, the physician or technologist should be able to modify or create CTA protocols to address specific clinical and patient circumstances. The focus of this review is coronary CTA, but the basic principles are applicable to CTA in any arterial system.     

经母腹取胎血及其脆性X检测的临床应用

本文报道在B超监护下经母腹作脐静脉穿刺取胎血33例,其中30例咨询孕妇作产前诊断,3例中孕引产。成功率为93.9％。孕龄与穿刺命中率,胎盘位置与穿刺命中率均不相关(P>0.05及P>0.05)。手术最佳时间是孕24周前后。手术并发症有胎心率变慢(或快),胎盘渗血,脐带渗血,脐血管空气栓塞等。但未发生死胎、流产、胎膜早破及感染。胎血的脆性X(fra(x))表达率较高,但脆性X并不复制。本法有可能成为fra(x)综合征的一种快速,可靠,安全,经济的产前诊断新方法。     

Techniques for high-resolution MR imaging of atherosclerotic plaque

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. Investigation of atherosclerotic plaque morphology and composition is important because the findings may be useful in predicting prognosis or response to therapy. This study presents high-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques developed on a 1.5-T whole-body imager with a custom-built surface coil, for characterizing the composition and morphology of plaque removed at carotid endarterectomy. The initial comparison of MR imaging and histologic results showed good correlation. In conjunction with MR angiography, these techniques could be used in in vivo imaging to define the size, location, and contents of atherosclerotic plaque at the carotid bifurcation.     

年轻人冠状动脉壁平滑肌细胞的表型变化及其与巨噬细胞的关系——免疫组织化学研究

选用年轻人冠状动脉材料，免疫组织化学方法，观察了弥漫性内膜增厚、脂纹、动脉粥样硬化斑块中平滑肌细胞的免疫表型变化，并将这些变化同巨噬细胞进行了联系。结果表明，凡是有巨噬细胞浸润之处，不管何种病变，该处的平滑肌细胞便失去了相应抗体的反应性，但仍能被抗间叶细胞抗体所标记，提示平滑肌细胞已经发生表型转变。这一现象说明巨噬细胞在平滑肌细胞表型转变过程中起重要作用，有助于人们对动脉粥样硬化病变、冠脉成形术后再狭窄病变发生过程的认识。
