肾虚型绝经综合征妇女生存质量分析

目的对肾虚型绝经综合征患者进行调查研究,分析其生存质量现状以及与中医证候的相关性.方法以现场问卷调查的方式对424名患者进行调查,分析绝经综合征肾虚证候的不同症状的出现率;对中医证候量表记分及生存质量量表总记分及其4个维度进行相关分析;对不同绝经时段患者生存质量进行比较分析.结果①本研究中患者的主要临床表现为血管舒缩功能紊乱、精神神经系统和骨骼运动系统等症状,绝经综合征主症以及肾虚的典型症状的出现率较高.心理和生理症状有较好的相关性.②中医证候记分越高,绝经综合征患者的生存质量越差.③绝经后患者的生存质量较绝经前普遍较差;肾阴虚患者在性生活维度方面,肾阳虚患者在生理症状维度方面,绝经前后有显著性差异.结论绝经综合征患者的生存质量状况欠满意,随绝经年限的增长生存质量有下降趋势.中医证候与生存质量有较好的正相关,具有不同中医证候期的患者,生存质量的维度变化有一定的差别.     

益气通腑法治疗食管贲门癌术后气虚气滞证47例

目的:观察益气通腑法治疗食管贲门癌术后气虚气滞证的临床疗效.方法:以益气通腑方治疗47例食管贲门癌术后气虚气滞证患者,与40例术后常规处理的对照组比较.结果:治疗组证候疗效愈显率、总有效率分别为63.83%和95.74%,对照组愈显率、总有效率分别为30.00%和70.00%,两组比较,差异有显著性(P<0.01).两组1周后证候积分均有减低,治疗组与对照组比较,差异有显著性(P<0.01).治疗组术后排气时间、留置胃管时间与对照组比较,差异有显著性(P<0.01).术后并发症发生率治疗组为8.51%(4/47),对照组为30.00%(12/40),二者相比,差异有显著性(P<0.01).结论:益气通腑法能改善食管贲门癌术后气虚气滞证的症状和促进术后恢复.     

The difficult primary hip

Hip arthroplasty is a common orthopaedic procedure with proven long-term success and reliable results. A wide range of associated conditions may affect the outcome of the arthroplasty and the surgeon has to keep these in mind when planning the surgery. In this article, such situations are discussed and recommendations are drawn from the evidence available in literature.     

六味地黄冲剂对肾阴虚病人血浆中锌铜含量的影响

肾阴虚病人血浆中锌、铜含量均较正常人血浆中锌,铜含量明显增高(P<0.01)。男女性别间本组未见差异。服用治疗肾阴虚药物六味地黄3种剂型后均使锌,铜含量明显降低(P<0.01),六味地黄冲剂与汤剂效果一致。     

Effects of Carbamazepine on Murine Humoral and Cellular Immune Responses

Summary: Oral administration of carbamazepine (CBZ)(15, 10, or 5 mg/kg) to mice significantly decreased both humoral and cellular immune responses evaluated by enumeration of direct and indirect plaque-forming spleen cells (PFC) and delayed–type hypersensitivity reaction (DTH) against sheep red blood cells (SRBC) as compared with those observed in normal control animals. Moreover, spleen T cells obtained from CBZ–treated donor mice were capable of decreasing both PFC and DTH responses of normal spleen cells transferred into lethally irradiated recipient animals. The immunodepressor effect of CBZ was observed even though administration of CBZ induced augmentation of spleen cellularity.     

Hereditary plasma thromboplastin antecedent (PTA,FXI)

A rare case of factor XI (PTA) deficiency was discovered in a Saudi family in the Riyadh area. Nine members of the family were studied. Two were found to have a severe PTA deficiency’ levels of factor XI clotting activity were 0.01 i.u./ml and 0.02 i.u./ml respectively. Both plasmas were markedly deficient in factor XI antigen and appeared to be negative for cross-reactive material (CRM-). The parents were first cousins and both were found to have a minor PTA deficiency. Factor XI levels were: mother 0.048 i.u./ml and father 0.33 i.u./ml. Another sibling was found to have a FXI level of 0.47 i.u./ml. Menorrhagia and bleeding for 1 day after tooth extraction were the main bleeding manifestations found in one member with severe PTA deficiency. Clinically this member presented with iron deficiency anaemia. Other family members had no significant history of bleeding tendency. This is the first report of a Saudi Arabian family with PTA deficiency.     

大鼠实验性脾虚证胰岛A、B和D细胞的免疫组织化学研究

用免疫组织化学ＰＡＰ法显示实验性脾虚组和正常对照组大鼠胰岛Ｂ细胞（胰岛素细胞）、Ａ细胞（胰高血糖素细胞）和Ｄ细胞（生长抑素细胞）．结果显示，实验组胰岛素分泌升高（Ｐ＜０．０１），胰高血糖素和生长抑素分泌下降（Ｐ＜０．０５）。实验结果提示大鼠胰岛Ａ、Ｂ和Ｄ细胞分泌活动的变化与脾虚证的症候可能有密切关系。     

Tension-free vaginal tape for the treatment of urodynamic stress incontinence with intrinsic sphincteric deficiency

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) procedure in women with urodynamic stress incontinence diagnosed as having intrinsic sphincteric deficiency (ISD). The combination of a maximal urethral closure pressure <20 cm H₂O and a Valsalva leak point pressure <60 cm H₂O was considered as diagnostic of ISD. Subjects with detrusor overactivity on preoperative urodynamics were excluded. A total of 35 patients with both low closure pressure and leak point pressure were enrolled. Bladder perforation occurred in three (8.6%) cases. Postoperative urinary voiding difficulties occurred in nine (25.7%) women. Two patients underwent surgical detension of the tape, with complete resolution of urinary retention and no relapse of incontinence. Women with postoperative voiding dysfunction had a significantly lower detrusorial pressure at the peak flow on preoperative urodynamics compared to those who voided efficiently after TVT. The mean (range) follow-up time was 12.5 months (3–36). The objective cure rate for stress incontinence was 91.4%. Two of the three (66%) patients in whom the TVT procedure failed had a fixed urethra. De novo urge incontinence was found in five (14.3%) patients.
