50例冠心病某些生化基础观测的临床诊断意义

对５０例冠心病患者进行某些生化基础观测，发现冠心病肾阴虚与糖耐量减低有关，肾阳虚患者尿１７－羟低於正常；而冠心病标证有其生化基础，与甘油三酯增高有密切相关。     

生长激素治疗对GHD患儿免疫功能的影响

对生长激素缺乏症（GHD）患儿生长激素（GH）治疗前后的免疫功能改变进行了观察。结果显示：（1）GHD患儿NK细胞活性明显降低，经GH治疗3个月后恢复到正常水平；（2）GHD患儿治疗前IL－1a和IL－2活性偏低，治疗后两者有逐渐增高的趋势；（3）治疗前后CD细胞亚群、sIL－2R和LPS诱生的TNFa含量均无明显变化。认为GH缺乏症患儿存在一定的免疫功能缺陷，而GH有调节其免疫功能的作用。     

7～12岁儿童铁缺乏及补充对身体做功能力的影响

以１１６０名７～１２岁儿童为研究对象，共筛查出ＩＤＡ儿童２６９人，贫血患病率为２３．１９％。抽取６０名ＩＤＡ儿童分为二组（补铁组、安慰剂组），另选３０名正常儿童为对照组。补铁前后测Ｈｂ、ＦＥＰ、ＰＷＣ１７０、ＲＰＷＣ１７０、ＶＯ２ｍａｘ及血乳酸浓度值。补铁前，ＩＤＡ儿童反映ＰＷＣ大小的各项指标值与正常儿童之间存在显著性差异；经三个月补铁后，补铁组以上各指标值恢复正常水平。结果提示：轻度ＩＤＡ对７～１２岁儿童ＰＷＣ有明显影响，并能通过铁剂治疗得以矫正。     

铁强化食盐预防缺铁性贫血效果的观察

本文试以食盐为载体,使在食盐中每日为学龄前儿童增加元素铁5～10mg,对象为5岁的幼儿园儿童165名,分别在城镇与农村观察一年。初步的结果是:实验组与对照组在开始时的血红蛋白水平一致,但一年后,实验组由原来的平均值11.78±0.57增加至12.72±0.72,比对照组有明显的改善,这是解决缺铁性贫血的一种实际方法。     

核黄素缺乏大鼠红细胞维生素E水平的变化及脂质过氧化关系的研究

对两组大鼠分别喂饲核黄素缺乏（ＲＤ）膳和核黄素添加（Ｒ８，２２ｍｇ／ｋｇ饲料）膳８周后，测定了两组大鼠的红细胞维生素Ｅ（ＲＢＬＶｅ）、红细胞超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）和红细胞丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）的水平。结果发现：ＲＤ组ＲＢＣＶｅ水平（４．７１７３±０．７７１０ｍｇ／ｇ蛋白质）显著低于ＲＳ组（５。３８６８±１．１５３７ｍｇ／ｇ蛋白质，Ｐ＜０．０５）。而ＲＤ组的ＲＢＣＳＯＤ（７７４５．２±６１０．１ｕ／ｇ蛋白质）和ＭＤＡ（０．６８６８±０．１３７２μｇ／ｇ蛋白质）则分别显著低于和高于ＲＳ组（８２６８．５±３０１．０ｎｕ／ｇ蛋白质，０．５５４８±０．０９８０，Ｐ＜０．０５）。研究提示，核黄素缺乏引起细胞膜脂质过氧化加重可能ＲＢＣＶｅ消耗增加。     

Role of EDRF in the Regulation of Shear Rate in Large Coronary Arteries in Conscious Dogs

To determine whether dilation of large coronary arteries normalizes shear during increased flow following brief occlusion, six dogs were instrumented to measure aortic and left ventricular pressures, left circumflex coronary artery external diameter, and coronary blood flow. The coronary artery was occluded for 15 or 30 s. Data were obtained before and after blockade of EDRF synthesis with nitro-L-arginine. Internal coronary artery diameter and wall shear were calculated on a moment-to-moment basis and the area under the flow curve was measured. Peak flow and shear rate were unaffected by NLA or by the occlusion duration. Flow curve area increased with the duration of occlusion. Internal and external diameters increased significantly for 15 s occlusions before NLA (by 4 ± 1% in external diameter and by 11 ± 4% in internal diameter) and for 30 s occlusions before NLA (by 5 ± 1% in external diameter and by 14 ± 5% in internal diameter) but not after NLA. Adenosine infusions of 0.05, 0.10, 0.50, and 1.0 μmol/kg/min were also used to dilate the coronary arteries. With each infusion, flow, shear and diameter were allowed to reach steady state. Steady state shear was reduced only slightly and did not approach the baseline state. We conclude that increased shear rate causes an increase in coronary artery diameter which is EDRF dependent. Increased coronary artery diameter during reactive hyperemia and adenosine infusions did not normalize wall shear.     

Nutritional Anemias

Prevention of nutritional deficiencies should be attained by the consumption of a good diet. Unfortunately, in the case of iron, this is not always possible, and it is advantageous to fortify food with iron. Milk-based formulas and cereals are the most commonly used iron-fortified products in infancy and early childhood. Bioavailability of iron from cereals is low and more clinical studies on the field are necessary to demonstrate the effectiveness of iron-fortified cereals in infants and children of developing countries. Infections and excessive blood loss in infancy related to the use of fresh, pasteurized or powdered cow milk result in much of the anemia we currently see in industrialized countries. Vitamin A deficiency interacts with iron metabolism and recent intervention studies have shown that anemia in Vitamin A deficient children can be successfully treated with oral supplements.     

Efficacy of short‐term oral cobalamin therapy for the treatment of cobalamin deficiencies related to food‐cobalamin malabsorption: A study of 30 patients

Background: It has been suggested that oral cobalamin (vitamin B₁₂) therapy may be an effective therapy for treating cobalamin deficiencies related to food‐cobalamin malabsorption. However, the duration of this treatment was not determined. Patients and method: In an open‐label, nonplacebo study, we studied 30 patients with established cobalamin deficiency related to food‐cobalamin malabsorption, who received between 250 and 1000 μg of oral crystalline cyanocobalamin per day for at least 1 month. Endpoints: Blood counts, serum cobalamin and homocysteine levels were determined at baseline and during the first month of treatment. Results: During the first month of treatment, 87% of the patients normalized their serum cobalamin levels; 100% increased their serum cobalamin levels (mean increase, +167 pg/dl; P < 0.001 compared with baseline); 100% had evidence of medullary regeneration; 100% corrected their initial macrocytosis; and 54% corrected their anemia. All patients had increased hemoglobin levels (mean increase, +0.6 g/dl) and reticulocyte counts (mean increase, +35 × 10⁶/l) and decreased erythrocyte cell volume (mean decrease, 3 fl; all P < 0.05). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that crystalline cyanocobalamin, 250–1000 μg /day, given orally for 1 month, may be an effective treatment for cobalamin deficiencies not related to pernicious anemia.     

儿童边缘性锌缺乏症综合判断的研究

对沈阳市某幼儿园９９例３～６岁锌缺乏儿童的营养调查和生物样品（血液、尿液和毛发）的分析发现：同对照组儿童相比，锌缺乏儿童除Ｆｅ、维生素Ａ外，其他主要营养素的摄入明显不足；缺锌儿童的发锌、ＲＢＣ锌水平、血清ＡＬＰ活性、尿锌／尿肌酐比值均明显低于对照组。经补锌治疗后血浆锌水平、血清ＡＬＰ活性、尿锌／尿肌酐比值显著升高。应用临床诊断实验的评价方法分析发现结合血浆锌水平，联合使用发锌，血清ＡＬＰ和尿锌／尿肌酐比值３项指标可以准确判断儿童边缘性锌缺乏，这时并联的灵敏度为９６．１８％，串联的特异度可高达到１００％（血清ＡＬＰ活性＜１０４ＩＵ／Ｌ，同时发锌含量＜１１０ｐｐｍ．尿锌／尿肌酐比值＜０．３μｇ／ｇ）。
