雷米芬太尼对无抽搐电休克治疗心血管反应的影响

目的研究雷米芬太尼对无抽搐电休克(MECT)治疗心血管反应的影响。方法32例抑郁症患者随机分成对照组与雷米芬太尼组,每组16例。对照组采用丙泊酚1.5mg/kg静脉麻醉;雷米芬太尼组给予等量丙泊酚加1μg/kg雷米芬太尼静脉麻醉。全麻诱导后皆静注琥珀酰胆碱,待肌肉松驰后行MECT治疗。全程监测患者ECG、HR、MAP、SpO2,并观察记录患者癫痫发作时间、自主呼吸恢复时间、苏醒时间。结果MECT治疗后即刻、1、3min两组HR、MAP较麻醉前明显升高(P<0.05或P<0.01),但雷米芬太尼组明显低于对照组(P<0.05);自主呼吸恢复时间雷米芬太尼组略长于对照组(P<0.05),但均在10min以内;癫痫发作时间、苏醒时间、SpO2两组差异无显著意义。结论雷米芬太尼适合应用于MECT治疗麻醉并可明显抑制MECT引起心血管反应。     

全麻复合硬膜外阻滞对换瓣手术病人术后血浆皮质醇、血糖及术后恢复的影响

目的观察全麻复合硬膜外阻滞对心脏瓣膜置换手术病人血浆皮质醇(Cor)、血糖(Glu)及术后恢复的影响。方法将20例换瓣手术病人随机分为全麻复合硬膜外阻滞(GEA)和单纯全麻(GA)两组。于术前、术后4 h、术后第1、3、7天取血浆测Cor、Glu浓度,并记录术后清醒时间和拔管时间。结果与术前比较,GA组病人术后4 h,术后第1天血浆Cor水平均显著升高(P<0.05),GEA组血浆Cor水平仅在术后4 h显著增高(P<0.05),但其术后4 h,术后第1天的血浆Cor水平明显低于GA组(P<0.05)。术后第1天,GEA组血浆Cor水平即恢复致术前水平,GA组至术后第3天才恢复致术前水平。两组病人Glu从术后4 h至第7天均高于麻醉前水平,GEA组升高的幅度小于GA组,在术后各时点两组之间差异有显著意义(P<0.05)。GEA组病人术后清醒时间、术后拔管时间早于GA组(P<0.05),术后VAS显著低于GA组(P<0.05)。结论全麻复合硬膜外阻滞可减轻心脏换瓣手术病人应激反应和术后疼痛,有利于病人术后早清醒与早拔管。     

Incidence and Prognosis of Organ Failure in Severely Injured Children and Adult Patients

Abstract Background: Does there exist a difference in the outcome of severely injured children and severely injured healthy adults? Methods: The data of 1,566 severely injured patients, treated between May 1998 and December 2002 in our emergency department of the University Essen/Germany, were analyzed. Patients with an injury severity score (ISS) > 24 were included in the present study. Patients younger as 18 (17) years were located to the children group c. Patients aged 18 and up to the age of 54 were included in the adult group a. Results: Fifty-four children and 252 adults met the selection criteria. ISS and the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) before intubation were not statistically different in both groups. Seriously injured children stayed significantly shorter on the intensive care unit, required significantly less ventilator days. Furthermore, the incidence of single organ failure (SOF) and multiple organ failure (MOF) was significantly lower in the children group. Mortality in the children group (29.6%) was lower than that in the adult group (33.7%). There was no death due to MOF in the children group as compared to 2.4% (n = 6) in the adults. Conclusion: The incidence of SOF and MOF was significantly lower in the children group although there was no difference in ISS, GCS and injury patterns. The prognosis of severely injured children was found to be better than those of adults. Moreover, there was no death due to MOF in the children group.     

Clinical features of hepatocellular carcinoma that occur after sustained virological response to interferon for chronic hepatitis C

Background and Aim: This study investigated the clinical features of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with sustained virological response to interferon for hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection. Methods: A total of 7715 patients with HCV infection were treated with interferon and followed up for more than 1 year after withdrawal of interferon in 64 Japanese hospitals and clinics between July 1988 and August 2001. Sustained virological response was obtained in 2515 (32.6%) patients. Of these 2515 patients, clinical data were collected for 38 patients in whom hepatocellular carcinoma developed. Sustained virological response was defined as HCV RNA negativity more than 6 months after the termination of interferon. Results: All patients were HCV RNA negative at the time of diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. The median period until the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma was 4.7 years (range 1.4–9.0 years). There were significant improvements in hepatic function including serum albumin, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, indocyanine green test, platelet count and histological activity grade in comparison with those before interferon therapy and at the onset of hepatocellular carcinoma. The maximum tumor size in patients without medical follow‐up for 1 year or more (median: 60 mm) was significantly larger than in patients who were periodically followed up for 6 months or less (median: 25 mm) (P = 0.002). Conclusions: The present findings emphasize the importance of regular medical follow up of patients with HCV infection, as even patients showing a sustained virological response to interferon and in whom hepatic function has improved have the potential to develop hepatocellular carcinoma.     

Sustained eosinophil cationic protein release into tears after a single high-dose conjunctival allergen challenge

Background The appearance of eosinophils is a hallmark sign of the allergic late-phase response (LPR). Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), a readily measurable product released from activated eosinophils, has so far not been evaluated in the ocular LPR. Objective Two sets of trials were performed in order to investigate changes of local and systemic eosinophil activity and their possible link with symptoms and hyper-reactivity in the allergic LPR in the eye. Methods In the first experiment, ECP was analysed in tears and serum and the clinical reaction was evaluated during a 72-h time–course after a single, high-dose allergen challenge out of season in one eye of 15 pollen-sensitized volunteers. In a second experiment, the hypothesis of an increased clinical response to an allergen challenge in an eye that had been provoked with allergen 48h previously was tested in nine sensitized individuals. Results In the first experiment, symptoms at 10 min and 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 h significantly exceeded base line scores of the challenged eyes. Tear ECP was significantly elevated in challenged eyes compared to contralateral eyes at 6, 8 and 24 h. In addition, symptoms and ECP release correlated significantly at the 24-h evaluation. Serum ECP remained unchanged throughout the study period. In the second experiment, conjunctival hyperreactivity 48h after an allergen challenge was not confirmed. Conclusion ECP secretion occurs in the experimental ocular LPR and is in part associated with the magnitude of the clinical reaction, which suggests a truly pathogenic role of the activated eosinophil in pollen-induced allergic conjunctivitis.     

2,3-Butanedione monoxime protects mice against the convulsant effect of picrotoxin by facilitating GABA-activated currents

While adult mice receiving picrotoxin (PTX) alone responded with clonic and tonic-clonic seizures, this response was greatly suppressed for mice simultaneously injected with 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM). For example, 60% and 10% of the mice convulsed when injected (i.p.) with 3.0 mg/kg PTX alone or PTX plus 205 mg/kg of BDM, respectively. In contrast, a non-oxime analogue of BDM, 2,3-butanedione (BTD), did not have this anticonvulsant effect. In order to explore the basis for the anticonvulsant effect of BDM, we recorded GABA-activated currents (I_GABA) of frontal cortical as well as ventromedial hypothalamic neurons before, during and after exposure to this oxime. BDM had a biphasic effect on concentrations (100 μM-40 mM) decreased and lower concentrations (0.01 μM–0.001 μM) potentiatedI_GABA; these effects of BDM reversed upon washout of the oxime. In contrast, BTD had no effect onI_GABA. Finally, when 0.001 μM BDM, 10–30 μM PTX and GABA were co-applied the inhibitory effect of the toxin onI_GABA was markedly suppressed. These data suggest that the anticonvulsant effect of oximes involves facilitation of the inhibitory action of GABA.

Effect of periodontal therapy on specific antibody responses to suspected periodontopathogens

The effects of clinically successful periodontal therapy were studied in juvenile periodontitis (JP) and rapidly progressive periodontitis (RP) patients and compared with periodontally healthy subjects (HS). Serum samples were obtained in 35 HS prior to the study and in 12 of these subjects 3-4 years later. Serum samples were obtained from 50 JP patients initially, 9 subjects immediately following surgical therapy and 29 of these subjects 3-4 years later. RP patients provided 46 initial serum samples, 9 following therapy and 27 samples 3-4 years later. Antibody levels were determined utilizing a standardized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with Bacteroides gingivalis, B. ochracea, Fusobacterium nucleatum and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans serving as antigens. The JP patients showed an initial rise in antibody levels immediately following therapy followed by a significant decrease in antibody levels 3 to 4 years later. The RP patients did not show an early change in antibody levels but by 3 to 4 years post-therapy, antibody levels had significantly decreased. However, during this study, the antibody levels of JP and RP patients remained significantly higher when compared with HS patients.
