Sebaceous glands and hair follices in the cervix uteri

We report a case of ectopic ectodermal structures in the ectocervix of a 51-year-old female. Sebaceous glands and numerous abnormal hair follicles were present in the stroma of an otherwise normal cervix.     

Malignant Warthin''s tumour: a case study

Malignant transformation of a benign Warthin's tumour (adenolymphoma) is extremely rare. The light microscopic and ultrastructural features of an adenocarcinoma arising in a Warthin's tumour in the parotid gland are described. Light microscopy demonstrated a transition zone from the benign to the malignant component, and the malignant cells revealed oncocytic features by both light- and electronmicroscopy.

目的探讨肺心病患者的血栓前状态，观察并分析低分子肝素抗凝干预的疗效。方法将54倒肺心病患者分为低分子肝素治疗组和常规治疗组各27例。分别检测治疗前后血浆血管性假血友病因子(VWF)、血浆凝血酶片段1 2(F1 2)、纤堆蛋白原(Fg)、血小板颗粒膜蛋白(GMP-140)和D-二聚体(DD)。结果肺心病患者VWF、F1 2、Fg、GMP-140、DD血浆浓度显著高于对照组；肺心病治疗组经LMWH治疗后上述各凝血分子标记物及PaCO2明显降低。而PaO2显著增高。常规组虽血气指标略有改善。但凝血分子标记物未见改善。结论尽早检测肺心病血栓前状态，及时给予低分子肝素抗凝干预，有望从根本上改善肺心病惠性加重期患者的不良预后。     

Inhibitory effect of activated protein C on platelet aggregation induced by the prothrombin-converting reaction

The present study was undertaken to elucidate the effect on platelet aggregation of the prothrombin-converting reaction on platelets with or without activated protein C (APC). A reaction mixture of washed platelets from human individuals, Factor Xa and prothrombin markedly induced platelet aggregation; maximum aggregation rates, 31.3–92.5%, and times to reach to maximum aggregation, 11.6 to 20.1 min. This aggregation was inhibited by the addition of APC with 50% inhibition concentration (IC₅₀) value of 14.4 U/ml. APC also inhibited thrombin generation in the reaction mixture in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 value of 0.96 U/ml. However, APC did not inhibit the thrombin (0.1 CU/ml)-induced platelet aggregation at concentrations of up to 30 U/ml. These findings suggest that APC has no direct inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation and that APC inhibits platelet aggregation through inhibition of thrombin generation.     

A case report of deficiency in an inhibitor of calcium-dependent association of protein S with C4B-binding protein suggested by a modified crossed immunoelectrophoresis

We have experienced a coagulation factor VIII-deficient patient whose plasma has normal protein S (PS) activity and masses of free PS and its bound form in complex with C4b-binding protein (C4BP). Although the patient's plasma showed a normal ratio of free PS to PS-C4BP complex in the presence of 5 mM EDTA, the plasma gave an abnormally retarding major C4BP peak together with a major PS peak in the crossed immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) in the presence of 2 mM CaCl₂. It was revealed that the major peak was formed by a mixture of PS-C4BP complex and free form. The addition of normal human plasma (NHP) to the patient's plasma inhibited the retardation of the major PS-C4BP complex. These suggest that the patient's plasma lacks some component(s) to inhibit Ca²⁺-dependent association of PS with C4BP.     

Relationship between plantar pressure distribution under the foot and insole comfort

In this paper, four pairs of insoles with different comfort characteristics were used to investigate the relationship between the pressure distribution under the foot and running shoe comfort. Fourteen male subjects were tested in four insole conditions by walking and running on a treadmill. The pressure at the plantar surface of the foot was measured by using an EMED pressure-measuring insole. For walking there were significantly higher pressures and forces in the midfoot area and significantly lower pressures in the medial forefoot and hallux area by wearing the most comfortable insole compared with wearing the least comfortable insole. The shift of the pressure from forefoot to midfoot for the most comfortable insole provided an even distribution of the pressure at the plantar surface of the foot. The results also demonstrated that the path of centre of force at the plantar surface of the foot moved to the lateral aspect of the foot for the most comfortable insole. For running, only the pressure in the medial forefoot area was found significantly lower for the most comfortable insole than for the least comfortable insole. The results of this study indicated that the pressure distribution between the plantar surface of the foot and the shoe could detect the change of shoe comfort. Thus it is a suggestion that pressure measurement may be related to understand factors important for shoe comfort.

Comfort of sport shoes is important for the appropriate execution of sport activities. Additionally, comfort may influence fatigue and possibly the development of injuries. The quantification of comfort of sport shoes and the understanding of mechanical and/or biological functions related to it may be enhanced with the use of pressure measurements between the plantar surface of the foot and the shoe sole.     

不同分娩方式对早产儿影响的临床研究

目的：探讨妊娠小于34周早产分娩方式的选择。方法：妊娠小于34周早产患者126例分为剖宫产组67例和阴道分娩组59例，比较不同分娩方式对分娩结局的影响。结果：孕28—30＋6周时，阴道分娩组的新生儿死亡率明显高于剖宫产组（P〈0．05），其他两个孕周期间的两组新生儿死亡率比较无显著差异。阴道分娩组和剖宫产组的新生儿的死亡数随着出生体重的逐渐增加而不断减少，新生儿体重小于1500g时，两种分娩方式的死亡率之间比较存在显著性差异。结论：早产的主要原因是妊娠并发症，降低新生儿不良结局的根本措施还应延长孕龄，提高新生儿生存能力。     

M_2和β_1受体抗体与慢性肺源性心脏病关系的实验研究

目的用缺氧方法制备的肺源性心脏病(肺心病)大鼠为对象,研究肺心病中M2和β1受体抗体的含量及其与疾病的关系。方法选取健康雄性Wistar大鼠36只,随机分为3组:单纯缺氧组,缺氧加注射FeCl3组,健康对照组。SA-酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测血清M2和β1受体抗体变化。最后处死大鼠观察心脏指标,并分析它与抗体滴度的相关性。结果血清中M2和β1受体抗体随缺氧时间延长而升高,滴度分别到第3周达高峰M2受体抗体为1∶80(单纯缺氧组)和1∶53(缺氧加注射FeCl3组),β1受体抗体为1∶60(单纯缺氧组)和1∶45(缺氧加注射FeCl3组),并且P/N值从第2周开始有阳性意义,到第3周同样达高峰M2和β1受体抗体分别为2.88(单纯缺氧组)、2.76(缺氧加注射FeCl3组)和3.25(单纯缺氧组)、3.99(缺氧加注射FeCl3组)。而肺心病大鼠心脏指标最终改变为R/(L+S)0.333±0.027(单纯缺氧组),0.348±0.033(缺氧加注射FeCl3组),R/BW×10-30.58±0.13(单纯缺氧组),0.60±0.15(缺氧加注射FeCl3组),(L+S)/BW×10-32.000±0.024(单纯缺氧组),2.081±0.037(缺氧加注射FeCl3组),并且抗体滴度与心脏改变呈正相关。结论M2和β1受体抗体阳性率及抗体滴度在大鼠肺心病模型中明显增高,表明肺心病的发生发展与M2和β1受体的自身抗体密切相关。
