脉冲式电磁辐射对大鼠血脑屏障影响的量效关系

目的 研究脉冲式电磁辐射(EMR)对大鼠血脑屏障(BBB)影响的量效关系。方法 采用伊思蓝静脉注射，荧光显微镜下观察不同脉冲次数的EMR辐照对大鼠BBB开放的影响。结果 伊思蓝在EMR诱发的大鼠BBB开放局部呈现荧光斑；随着EMR脉冲次数(0～200次)的增加，荧光斑数量增加、面积增大；荧光斑在EMR组全脑的分布，以皮质、丘脑、下丘脑、小脑、尾壳核和延髓较多。结论 不同脉冲次数EMR诱发大鼠BBB开放程度不同，随脉冲次数增加，血管通透性增强，200次时达开放高峰，皮质区BBB开放最明显。

Effects of nitrendipine on the autoregulation of regional cerebral blood flow in the pithed rabbit

Summary Effects of the calcium-channel antagonist, nitrendipine, on the autoregulation of regional cerebral blood flow were studied by analysing the pressure-flow relationship in the cortex, subcortex and thalamus in pithed anesthetized rabbits. Arterial pressure was altered from 50 to 125 mm Hg by electrical stimulation of the spinal nerve roots. Regional blood flow was measured with the hydrogen clearance technique. Under control conditions, regional blood flow in the cortex, subcortex and thalamus did not change significantly within the range of mean arterial pressures of 50 to 100 mm Hg. Vascular resistance in each region rose significantly (P < 0.05) in a pressure-dependent manner. During the intravenous infusion of nitrendipine (0.3 and 1 g · kg^–1 · min^–1), blood flow to the three regions of the brain increased in a pressure-dependent manner when mean arterial pressure was increased from 50 to 125 mm Hg. The autoregulatory increase in regional vascular resistance was abolished. In addition, nitrendipine produced a blood pressure-dependent decrease of the vascular resistance in the subcortex and thalamus but not in the cortex. These results indicate that nitrendipine increases regional cerebral blood flows and suppresses regional autoregulations simultaneously. The autoregulatory adjustment in the cortex is more resistant to nitrendipine than that in the subcortex and thalamus. The observation that the action of nitrendipine was not the same in the three brain regions may be due to the vascular beds of these regions differing in their calciumchannel equipment.     

Extramarital Involvement: A Core Relationship Issue in Need of a Coherent Model, Comprehensive Research, and Empirically Based Intervention

Clinical interventions for extramarital involvement (EMI) have outpaced empirical knowledge about both risk factors for infidelity and effective treatments. Allen et al. (this issue) provide a systematic review of current knowledge organized around stages of the development of EMI and factors concerning the involved partner, the spouse, the couple's relationship, and the interpersonal context. Their review identifies significant gaps in knowledge for which research is needed. Because EMI has multiple determinants, conceptual models and research on it must be multivariate. This comment focuses on priorities for increasing knowledge about EMI, including (a) clarification of variation in definitions and personal standards for EMI through consideration of participants' subjective experiences as well as the views of outsiders (researchers, clinicians); (b) improved qualitative research using interview methods designed to minimize biased questioning by investigators and biased reporting by subjects, to tap individuals' internal experiences with the developmental process of EMI; (c) nonblaming research on characteristics of the noninvolved spouse and the couple's interaction that predict EMI; and (d) adaptation of generic preventive and relationship enrichment interventions for couples involving communication skill-building and psychoeducation, to include information about ways to "inoculate" relationships against commonly unexpected risks of EMI.     

Carcinoma of the alimentary canal — A statistical study based on autopsy data from 1928 to 1972

Summary An analysis of autopsy data shows that during the period 1928–1972 the relative frequency of carcinoma of the stomach has remained practically unchanged. A similar trend is apparant from the mortality statistics for Vienna from 1955 to 1972. Whereas for the lower and middle age groups there is a real decrease during the period 1928–1952, an opposite trend is visible for the highest age group. The stomach and the lower parts of the large intestine are the most frequent sites of carcinoma of the alimentary canal. The frequency distribution is explained on the basis of the contact hypothesis.
