Synaptic reorganization in the medial amygdaloid nucleus after lesion of the accessory olfactory bulb of adult rat. II. New synapse formation in the medial amygdaloid nucleus by fibers from the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis

The rearrangement of terminations from the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BST) was examined in the medial amygdaloid nucleus (MAN) at 2 months following the lesion of the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) using an electron microscopy and degeneration study. At 2 days following a BST lesion, the number of degenerating synapses was 0.7 ± 0.1 (mean±S.E.M.) per unit area (2500 μm² in the molecular layer, and 3/0 ± 0.3 in the cellular part. At 2 months after an AOB lesion, the degenerating synapses from the AOB had completely disappeared from the MAN. The BST was then lesioned at 2 months after the AOB lesion and, 2 days following this BST lesion, the degenerating synapses were counted in MAN. The numbers observed were 3.3 ± 0.6 per unit area in the molecular layer and 4.5 ± 0.4 in the cellular part. Therefore, the number of these degenerating synapses increased significantly within the molecular layer, though, in the cellular part the number of synapses was not significantly elevated over control. No differences in postsynaptic profiles (ratio of synapses on dendritic spine to dendritic shaft) were observed after the AOB lesion. These results indicate that the BST fibers formed new synapses in the molecular layer following the denervation of AOB fibers. The possibility of new synapse formation by other afferent fibers in addition to the AOB fibers is discussed as is the relationship between lesion induced synaptic reorganization and functional recovery after injury.

鹅去氧胆酸连接氨基酸的合成

胆石症是一种常见病,鹅去氧胆酸(CDCA)可用于胆固醇胆石症的治疗。它能改变胆汁组成,降低胆汁内胆固醇饱和度,增加胆固醇溶解性,使胆石逐渐溶解。但CDCA易被肠道内细菌7-脱羟酶作用生成石胆酸(LC),引起腹泄、腹部痉挛、高转     

PTCA及支架植入术的护理

目的:对PTCA合并支架植入术患者采取不同护理方式进行恢复效果观察对比.方法:把接受PTCA及支架植入术的180例患者分成两组,一组进行常规护理,另一组则改变患者体位及缩短患者的绝对卧床时间,进行护理对比.结果:两组患者身体恢复情况有显著差异.结论:及早改变PTCA及支架植入术术后患者的体位,伤口及体力恢复快,减少并发症,缩短了住院时间,患者的身心健康得到早日康复.     

用稳定性同位素~(58)Fe中子活化法测定缺铁性贫血儿童膳食铁吸收率

本文报告了应用稳定性同位素~(58)Fe对三组缺铁性贫血儿童,分别摄取平衡膳、平衡膳加大豆蛋白膳和平衡膳加大豆蛋白加维生素C膳时,各组儿童膳食铁的吸收率。测定结果顺次分别为12.0±3.6％、10.7±4.7％和18.1±3.6％。后者高于前二者,差异显著。据此,作者同意国际营养性贫血咨询小组(INACG)以及大多数学者的主张,即大豆制品不利于或降低膳食铁的生物利用率(bioavailability)。本文并结合实验讨论了本法的原理、操作技术及误差控制等问题,评价了本法在类似工作中的重要意义。     

Applying item response theory to enhance health outcomes assessment

Background Health-related quality of life (HRQL) is an accepted outcome measure in patients with mood and anxiety disorders. Yet, surprisingly little attention has been paid to the determinants. In this paper we test the hypothesis that it is associated with personality traits while controlling for mental disorders. Methods A large sample of outpatients (n=640) with mood and anxiety disorders was studied. The empirically supported five factor model of normal personality traits was assessed using the NEO-FFI and includes: neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. Mental disorders were assessed with the CIDI, and HRQL with the SF-36. Results Regression analyses revealed that the NEO-FFI scores, with the exception of conscientiousness, were significantly associated with SF-36 subscales and summary scores, independently from the mental disorders. The percentage of explained variance due to the personality traits was highest for the subscales Vitality (10.0%), Mental Health (13.3%) and the Mental Health Summary Score (9.5%). Furthermore, specific personality traits were related to specific SF-36 subscales. Conclusions A low HRQL of patients with mood or anxiety disorders is not only determined by the disease or the current health but is also shaped by personality traits that are relatively stable throughout an individual's life time.     

牙根发育不良疾病的研究进展

牙根发育不良疾病是牙齿根部生理性发育出现障碍的疾病。其发病率为1%~10%,乳、恒牙列均可发生,其结果可导致牙根缺如或短根,严重者可造成牙齿过早脱落。国外学者将该疾病统称为短根异常疾病。其发病因素有遗传性疾病、全身性疾病、外源性因素和医源性因素等。     

Age-related effects of transection of the testicular blood vessels on subsequent testicular development in the pig

Pigs of different ages were studied to assess the effect of age on the development of the testes after intra-abdominal transection of the testicular artery and vein. Transection of the testicular artery and vein at different stages of sexual development had a variable effect on the growth and differentiation of the testes. Transection performed at a young age (2 months) had no effect on the development of the testes (previous study). The animals used in this study were between 3 and 12 months (adult) at the time of surgical intervention. Their testes appeared to be more sensitive to disturbance of the main blood supply. The alternative vascular pedicle (vasal artery) was unable to adapt sufficiently to the increased physiological requirements of the testis during development in more than 50% of the animals. The results obtained from adult males indicate that intra-abdominal transection of the testicular vessels invariably has a deleterious effect on the testis.
