The nature of the head and neck cancer

Summary Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck is a disease predominantly of males and is due to a variety of known environmental irritants, notably cigarette smoke. Dietary, viral and immunological factors may also be relevant. Head and neck squamous cancers express epidermal growth factor receptors and some show weak levels of oestrogen receptor activity, but a reliable serum marker of tumour burden remains to be identified. The prognosis is found to be less favourable in females, in those with advanced T stage, in association with multiple node involvement, especially where extracapsular spread is present and where the T4/T8 ratio is elevated. Administration of heterologous blood during therapy may also have an adverse effect on prognosis. Interested clinicians must remember that most cases are preventable. Correspondence to: A.G.D.

经口摄入高硒镉对大鼠肝,肾组织中镉,锌,铜含量影响的研究

选用4周龄SD大鼠,经口染毒高硒(5.68mg/kg)、富硒(0.73mg/kg)和(或)高镉(33.3mg/kg)12周,并分别在实验的第3、6、9、12周末各处死一批大鼠,研究经口摄入高硒高镉对大鼠肝、肾组织中镉、锌、铜含量的影响。结果表明:同时摄入高硒高镉组大鼠体内镉蓄积明显低于单纯摄入高镉组;对单独摄入高硒、高镉所诱导的大鼠肝脏锌含量增加表现为拮抗作用;对单独摄入高硒所致大鼠肾脏锌含量降低的影响表现为拮抗作用;对单独摄入高硒、高镉所致大鼠肾脏铜含量增加的影响表现为协同作用。     

唾液蛋白与脾肾两虚、气血不足的关系

实验表明,脾肾两虚、气血不足患者唾液蛋白明显下降,与正常人相比差异明显(P<0.01);脾肾两虚患者唾液蛋白与血浆白蛋白及总蛋白量成正相关性,气血不足患者唾液蛋白与血色素、红细胞量亦成正相关性。

Comparison of gas-liquid chromatography and EMIT assay for serum valproic acid

We describe a simple direct extraction method for the gas-liquid chromatography determination of serum valproic acid. The working range for the assay is 2-180 mg/L and our within-run precision was 5.8 and 4.3% at the 40 and 90 mg/L concentrations respectively. Hemolyzed and lipemic sera as well as samples from patients with hyperbilirubinemia and from patients with decreased renal function were put through the assay and no interfering peaks were noted. Interference occurred when teflon-lined screw caps were used during the extraction step. The method was proven to be accurate by linear regression analysis of samples containing weighed-in amounts of valproic acid. The above assay was compared to an enzyme immunoassay technique (EMIT). The working range for the latter is 10-150 mg/L and the with-run precision was 10.8 and 5.9% and 90 mg/L concentration respectively. Samples were run by both the gas-liquid chromatograph and enzyme immunoassay methods and gave very similar results over the range 16-139 mg/L.

目的探讨非小细胞肺癌脑转移的有效治疗方案.方法对38例非小细胞肺癌脑转移患者进行头部、胸部放疗并结合全身化疗的综合治疗.结果近期疗效的有效率为76.3%(29/38).神经精神症状缓解率73.7%(28/38),肺部症状缓解率60.5%(23/38).1年生存率31.5%(12/38),2 a生存率10.5%(4/38).结论合理采用综合治疗可有效提高非小细胞肺癌脑转移患者的生存率.     

卵巢恶性肿瘤与血小板增多关系分析

目的探讨卵巢恶性肿瘤伴发血小板增多的临床规律。方法回顾分析98例卵巢恶性肿瘤患者的临床资料,26例合并血小板增多。结果血小板增多占26.5%,其中晚期(Ⅲ+Ⅳ期)占88.46%,晚期患者血小板偏高明显增多,且肿瘤切除后血小板下降。结论卵巢恶性肿瘤伴发血小板增多晚期患者多见,预后差,血小板增多可作为判断卵巢肿瘤恶性程度及术后随访的指标。
