A critical incident study in child health

The critical incident technique is an objective method of analysing doctors' professional behaviour. It extracts the skills which should be taught and assessed in any training programme. In such a study in child health, 438 incidents were collected from general practitioners, paediatricians and others, and analysed according to the problem, the disease, the setting, the skill and the attitude involved. Most of the problems concerned non-specific symptoms (e.g. 'unwell baby', 'fever') and the main skill categories (each with many subheadings) were clinical management (especially at home), the diagnostic process and interpersonal skills. Training of doctors in child health should emphasize the competencies highlighted in this study.     

原发性甲状腺功能亢进症合并甲状腺癌18例分析

目的：探讨原发性甲状腺功能亢进症（甲亢）合并甲状腺癌（甲癌）的诊断和治疗。方法：回顾分析1990年1月于2000年1月手术治疗18例甲亢合并甲癌患者的临床资料，结果：微小癌占83％（15／18）。术前彩超检查15例，14例发现可疑结节；13例行癌侧叶全切除和对侧叶次全切除术，5例行双侧叶次全切除术，其中3例同时行颈淋巴结清扫术，1例二次行颈淋巴结清扫术。随访16例，平均随访7年，1例死于癌肺转移，余者仍存活，结论：术前常规彩超检查发现可疑结节有助于术中冰冻切片病理检查，手术治疗应兼顾甲亢和甲癌。     

肝癌患者HBV血清学标志和HBV-DNA的关系

目的 为了探讨肝癌患血清中HBV标志物与HBV－DNA之间的相关性。方法 运用酶联免疫吸附试验和聚合酶链式反应同时检测血清中HBV标志物和HBV－DNA。结果 在427例肝癌患的血清中，HBV－M（＋）为74．0％，HBV－DNA（＋）为44．0％，与正常对照组差异非常显。结论 乙型肝炎病毒的感染与复制仍是肝癌的主要致病因素。     

谷胱甘肽S-转移酶在原发性肝癌中的表达

目的：为了解谷胱甘肽S－转移酶及其同工酶在原发性肝癌患者中的表达情况。方法：采用免疫组化方法对不同分化程度肝癌组织32例和肝硬化组织11例行GSTs和GST－π表达的研究，并以γ-GT作为对照；同时对128例不同肝病患者血清中GSTs活性作检测。结果：GSTs、GST－π及γ－GT的表达与肿瘤的分化程度有关，分化越差，阳性率越低，反之亦然；GST－π在分化良好组阳性表达率明显高于肝为后肝硬化组（P＜0．05）；血清GSTs活性检测肝癌组与正常对照组相比没有显著性差异（P＞0．05）。结论：GST－π是优于γ-GT的肝癌标志酶，尤其在分化程度良好的肝癌，对临床区分肝癌的分化程度有一定的意义。     

氨对重组中国仓鼠卵巢细胞生长及人红细胞生成素表达的影响

氨对重组中国仓鼠卵巢（CHO）细胞的生长具有明显的抑制作用，并遵循二级抑制模型，抑制常数Ka为41．5（mmol/L)^2，即当氨浓度为6．45mmol/L时，细胞的比生长速率下降到最大比生长速率的50％，在重组CHO细胞的批培养过程中，细胞密度和红细胞生成素浓度随着起始氨浓度的提高而下降，但存在一最适的氨浓度，在此浓度下，单位重组CHO细胞的EPO比生成速率最大。     

大鼠皮质神经元的体外培养和纯化

目的：探讨大鼠皮质神经元分离纯化的有效方法。方法：取胎鼠大脑皮质细胞，分别在不同的培养液中进行原代培养，利用相差显微镜对培养的细胞进行动态观察；并以免疫细胞化学技术对神经元进行染色。结果：在相差显微镜下可见加用N2添加剂和胎牛血清培养的神经元生长良好，胞体形态多样，突起数目多，长度长，与邻近神经元的胞体或突起形成接触，而胶质细胞则大量死亡，神经元纯化率达94％以上，未加用N2添加剂培养的神经元胶质细胞大量存在，神经元纯化率达50％左右。结论：N2添加剂和胎牛血清联合应用可使大鼠皮质神经元得到良好的生长和有效纯化。     

The 5-Step family intervention in primary care: II. The views of primary healthcare professionals

Background: This is the second of two papers using qualitative methods from a study of an intervention for family members affected by close relatives' substance misuse problems.

Participants: 168 primary healthcare professionals (PHCPs: GPs, practice nurses and health visitors) working in general practices in two areas of England, and who took part in the study.

Data sources: Recruitment and post-session forms completed by PHCPs; telephone interviews with each PHCP 12 weeks after recruitment of a family member; interviews with PHCPs at the end of the study.

Results: At the end of the project PHCPs were overwhelmingly positive about the family member intervention and about primary care as the appropriate site. Difficulties were encountered, however, in identifying and engaging affected family members, who were often excluded on grounds of the complexity of their problems or the level of their distress. Shortage of PHCP time and other practice-related factors added to the difficulty. Active work by a PHCP was often necessary in order to make the link between presenting symptoms of physical or mental ill-health and the existence of a family substance misuse problem. When family members were identified and recruited, PHCPs were usually positive about what was achieved. Nearly all were in favour of an approach that combined giving a self-help manual with some follow-up contact with a family member as needed.

Conclusions: Taken in conjunction with statistical outcome findings of significant reductions in symptoms and changes in ways of coping, plus qualitative analysis of the views of family members, the present results encourage the view that a flexible form of this intervention should be developed for use in primary healthcare, and that further work should build on existing strengths and attempt to overcome weaknesses identified.

Primary tubal choriocarcinoma

Choriocarcinoma is one of the most serious forms of gestational trophoblastic tumor. It is a malignant tumor from the epithelium of the chorionic villi. The most frequent location site is the uterus. Associated with ectopic pregnancy, it is extremely rare and in general, very aggressive. In 75% of the cases, it items from distant metastasis; therefore, a histological examination of the tubes must be performed in all ectopic pregnancies. Our patient was a 33-year-old woman who was admitted to emergency room (ER) with an intense pain in the right, iliac cavity, and limited genital bleeding. During the exploration, there was abdominal pain, with doubtful signs of peritoneal irritation. The vaginal ultrasound offered an image that was compatible with an extra uterine pregnancy in the left appendages. At emergency, right salpingectomy was performed via laparotomy. The patient was treated with polychemotherapy and contraceptives for a year, with no recurrence of the disease. Control follow-up was performed using beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) testing on a weekly basis during the first month and then bi-monthly during the first year of follow-up.
