体位对超声评估前盆腔相关参数影响的病例交叉研究

摘 要 目的 探讨传统膀胱截石位与改良膀胱截石位对超声评估前盆腔相关参数的影响。方法 应用交叉设计二阶段法，将100例行盆底超声检查的患者随机分为两组（每组各50例），A组采用先传统体位后改良体位规范盆底超声，B组采用先改良体位后传统体位规范盆底超声检查，对比分析两种体位检查的成功率、静息状态、最大Valsalva动作时各盆腔参数的差异。结果 改良体位获得最大Valsalva动作的成功率大于传统体位（96% vs 90%），差异有统计学意义（χ2=4.348，P=0.037）。两种体位在静息状态时膀胱颈到参考线的距离、膀胱后角、尿道倾斜角比较差异均无统计学意义；改良体位在最大Valsalva动作时的膀胱后角、膀胱颈移动度、尿道旋转角均大于传统体位，差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.05），且上述参数受实验顺序影响不明显，改良体位下尿道漏斗形成率大于传统体位，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。结论 体位因素对评估前盆腔相关参数具有影响，改良体位法获得的前盆腔相关参数与传统体位有一定差异，在临床应用中应注意合理解析。

目的探讨"一站式"杂交手术救治凶险性前置胎盘患者的应用价值及重要性。 方法对多学科合作行杂交手术救治凶险性前置胎盘合并胎盘植入患者的病例进行回顾性分析，总结"一站式"杂交手术多学科医护合作和护理配合要点。 结果经过多学科默契配合下的"一站式"杂交手术以及"L"型护理配合模式，手术顺利完成，术后无并发症发生，产妇于术后第4天出院。 结论凶险性前置胎盘患者病情危重、手术难度大，通过多学科讨论会、辐射防护、安全转运、医护默契配合以及根据潜在并发症采取预见性的护理措施是"一站式"杂交手术成功的要点。     

全膝关节置换术后下肢不同抬高度数对引流量的影响

目的：探讨全膝关节置换术后下肢不同抬高度对引流量的影响。方法将2013－2014年我院60例已经接受全膝关节置换术患者随机分为观察组和对照组各30例，观察组患者术后将下肢抬高60°，而对照组患者下肢抬高30°，观察两组患者术后伤口的引流量、切口愈合时间以及出院时的膝关节功能评分。结果术后2h、4h、12h、24h引流量，观察组平均分别为60mL、100mL、130mL、160mL，对照组平均分别为140mL、250mL、300mL、350mL，两组差异有统计学意义（P＜0．05），而两组患者的切口愈合情况与出院时膝关节功能评分差异无统计学意义（P＞0．05）。结论全膝关节置换术后抬高下肢60°能明显减少术后引流量，是一种有效的减少全膝关节置换术后失血的方法，但对患者的切口愈合时间以及出院的功能评分并无太大影响。     

Implication of Human Endogenous Retrovirus Envelope Proteins in Placental Functions

Human endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) represent 8% of the total human genome. Although the majority of these ancient proviral sequences have only retained non-coding long terminal repeats (LTRs), a number of “endogenized” retroviral genes encode functional proteins. Previous studies have underlined the implication of these ERV-derived proteins in the development and the function of the placenta. In this review, we summarize recent findings showing that two ERV genes, termed Syncytin-1 and Syncytin-2, which encode former envelope (Env) proteins, trigger fusion events between villous cytotrophoblasts and the peripheral multinucleated syncytiotrophoblast layer. Such fusion events maintain the stability of this latter cell structure, which plays an important role in fetal development by the active secretion of various soluble factors, gas exchange and regulation of fetomaternal immunotolerance. We also highlight new studies showing that these ERV proteins, in addition to their localization at the cell surface of cytotrophoblasts, are also incorporated on the surface of various extracellular microvesicles, including exosomes. Such exosome-associated proteins could be involved in the various functions attributed to these vesicles and could provide a form of tropism. Additionally, through their immunosuppressive domains, these ERV proteins could also contribute to fetomaternal immunotolerance in a local and more distal manner. These various aspects of the implication of Syncytin-1 and -2 in placental function are also addressed in the context of the placenta-related disorder, preeclampsia.     

An exploratory study into the effects of a 20 minute crushed ice application on knee joint position sense during a small knee bend

ObjectivesThe effect of cryotherapy on joint positioning presents conflicting debates as to whether individuals are at an increased risk of injury when returning to play or activity immediately following cryotherapy application at the knee. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a 20 min application of crushed ice at the knee immediately affects knee joint position sense during a small knee bend.DesignPre- and post-intervention.SettingUniversity movement analysis laboratory.ParticipantsEleven healthy male participants.Main outcome measuresKinematics of the knee were measured during a weight bearing functional task pre and post cryotherapy intervention using three-dimensional motion analysis (Qualisys Medical AB Gothenburg, Sweden). Tissue cooling was measured via a digital thermometer at the knee.ResultsResults demonstrated significant reductions in the ability to accurately replicate knee joint positioning in both sagittal (P = .035) and coronal (P = .011) planes during the descent phase of a small knee bend following cryotherapy.ConclusionIn conclusion a 20 min application of crushed ice to the knee has an adverse effect on knee joint repositioning. Team doctors, clinicians, therapists and athletes should consider these findings when deciding to return an athlete to functional weight bearing tasks immediately following ice application at the knee, due to the potential increase risk of injury.     

Impacts of Maternal Nutrition on Vascularity of Nutrient Transferring Tissues during Gestation and Lactation

As the demand for food increases with exponential growth in the world population, it is imperative that we understand how to make livestock production as efficient as possible in the face of decreasing available natural resources. Moreover, it is important that livestock are able to meet their metabolic demands and supply adequate nutrition to developing offspring both during pregnancy and lactation. Specific nutrient supplementation programs that are designed to offset deficiencies, enhance efficiency, and improve nutrient supply during pregnancy can alter tissue vascular responses, fetal growth, and postnatal offspring outcomes. This review outlines how vascularity in nutrient transferring tissues, namely the maternal gastrointestinal tract, the utero-placental tissue, and the mammary gland, respond to differing nutritional planes and other specific nutrient supplementation regimes.
