骨骼肌最大收缩力与最适初长度及其参数的研究

本实验以免载体股直肌为实验模型,研究了该肌在一定脉冲电流刺激下其初长度与收缩力、肌张力及肌力变化的相互关系。同时测定了正常生理状态下兔伸屈膝时股直肌拉长度的变化。结果表明:兔股直肌延长在1.0cm内时,肌力随初长度的延长而增大,超过1.0cm时增大已不明显(p<0.0 1),1.0cm与股直肌的生理最大延长度1.1cm相似。说明兔股直肌的初长度变化不应超过生理最大延长度。而人的骨骼肌与哺乳动物的骨骼肌没有本质的区别,因此,人骨骼肌的初长度变化也不应超过生理最大延长度。肌腱转位后的活动范围应在原位的生理活动范围内,才能发挥最佳收缩效应。     

小儿与成人喉内肌肌纤维型的差异与喉功能的关系

通过对１０例小儿及２３例成年人的喉内肌进行的ｍｙｏｓｉｎ－ＡＴＰａｓｅ等染色观察，得到小儿和成人各喉内肌不同的肌纤维构成比。成人ＰＣＡⅠ型纤维最多，ＬＣＡ、ＩＮＡ及ＣＴ次之，ＴＡ最少。小儿的各喉内肌也有类似比例。表明不论小儿或成人，ＰＣＡ均具有较强的抗疲劳性，适应呼吸作用的需要；ＴＡ具有较快的收缩速度，以适应发声及呼吸道保护作用。从纤维构成上看，小儿与成人相比，各喉内肌Ⅰ型纤维较为匮乏，表明小儿的喉在发声及呼吸道保护等功能方面尚不够完善。     

Skeletal Muscle Adaptations to Physical Training in Type II (Non-insulin-dependent) Diabetes Mellitus

Seven middle-aged men with manifest type II diabetes mellitus underwent an endurance training programme for 10–15 weeks. The maximal aerobic capacity, as well as the endurance capacity, was improved by 10% (p<0.05). The intramuscular glycogen store increased by more than 80% (p<0.05) from 350 μmol/g dw (dry weight), and the activities of citrate synthase and 3-hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase increased by more than 50% (p<0.05) and 30% (p<0.05). The activity of glycogen synthase was decreased by approximately 20% (p<0.05), whereas lactate dehydrogenase remained unchanged. Capillaries/fibre and fibre area increased by more than 50% (p<0.05) and 30% (p<0.05) leaving the area of supply constant. Training did not influence fasting blood lipids and glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, oral glucose tolerance, and insulin response to an oral glucose load measured 72 hours post-exercise. It is concluded that patients with manifest type II diabetes, as normoglycaemic individuals, adapt to physical training. However, no persistent effect on glucohomeostasis and lipaemia is produced by short-term training in the diabetic patients.     

Arm function after axillary dissection for breast cancer: a pilot study to provide parameter estimates.

Sixty-three women participated in a study in Calgary, Alberta to assess the rate of arm recovery and factors affecting it up to one year after axillary node dissection for breast cancer. Outcomes included objective measures of swelling, mobility, and strength, and subjective assessments of pain (at rest and with movement) and stiffness. Approximately 42% of women had residual impairment of at least one type one year after surgery, the most common problems being pain (16%) and reduced grip strength (16%). Except for lymphedema, measurements one year after surgery showed little change from measurements at 6 months, suggesting that the shorter follow-up may be appropriate for assessing the long term effects of axillary dissection. Lymphedema was the only sequela which increased over time. The results provide parameter estimates for designing studies to evaluate the role of physiotherapy after axillary dissection.     

同型半胱氨酸对大鼠血管平滑肌细胞胶原蛋白合成及其mRNA表达的影响

目的 :观察同型半胱氨酸 ( Hcy)对血管平滑肌细胞 ( VSMCs)胶原合成的影响 ,并探讨其作用机制。方法 :本实验采用体外培养的大鼠 VSMCs,加入不同浓度的 Hcy,通过 3 H-脯氨酸掺入、α1[ ]型胶原测定观察 Hcy对 VSMCs胶原合成的影响 ,并通过半定量 RT- PCR检测其对 α1[ ]型胶原 m RNA表达的影响。结果 :Hcy促进 VSMCs的胶原合成及 α1[ ]型胶原 m RNA表达 ,并呈剂量依赖效应。结论 :Hcy促进 VSMCs的胶原合成 ,可能是通过促进 α1[ ]型胶原 m RNA表达实现的。提示 Hcy促进胶原合成可能是动脉粥样硬化的发病机制之一     

pH control in rat skeletal muscle during exercise,recovery from exercise,and acute respiratory acidosis

We used ³¹P magnetic resonance spectroscopy to compare the response of rat skeletal muscle to three kinds of proton load. During exercise (tetanic sciatic nerve stimulation), protons from lactic acid were buffered passively and consumed by net hydrolysis of phosphocreatine (PCr). During recovery from exercise, the pH-dependent efflux of protons produced by PCr resynthesis could be partially inhibited by amiloride or 4,4′-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2′-disulphonate (DIDS), implicating both sodiudproton and bicarbonatelchloride exchange, but was not inhibited by simultaneous respiratory acidosis. In early recovery, up to 30% of proton efflux was mediated by lactatelproton cotransport. During acute respiratory acidosis at rest, the eventual change in muscle pH was consistent with passive buffering and was unaffected by amiloride or DIDS, implying no significant contribution of proton fluxes.     

一次手术治愈外直肌全麻痹

过去，为了保证前段的血液供应，外直肌全麻痹的手术治疗要分２～３次完成，考虑到全麻痹的外直肌已无功能，我们提出在这种条件下可以不动含睫状前动脉的外直肌，只退后内直肌和将上，下直肌的外侧１／２移到外直肌的附着处，如此安排，可以一次手术完成治疗，这样可以缩短治疗时间，减少病人的痛苦和负担，我们治疗了７例８眼，结果比较满意。     

Neuronal adrenergic and muscular cholinergic contractile hypersensitivity in canine jejunum after extrinsic denervation

Extrinsic denervation may be responsible for motor dysfunction after small bowel transplantation. The aim of this study was to examine the role of extrinsic innervation of canine jejunum on contractile activity. An in vitro dose response of cholinergic and adrenergic agonists was evaluated in canine jejunal strips of circular muscle at 0, 2, and 8 weeks in a control group and after jejunoileal extrinsic denervation (EX DEN). Neurons in circular muscle were quantitated by means of immunohistochemical techniques. Adrenergic and cholinergic responses did not differ at any time in the control group. However, at 2 and 8 weeks, extrinsic denervation caused an increased sensitivity to the procontractile effects of the cholinergic agonist bethanechol at the level of the smooth muscle cells, and increased sensitivity to the inhibitory effects of the adrenergic agent norepinephrine mediated at the level of the enteric nervous system. Immunohistochemical analysis showed a reduction in all neurons and a complete lack of adrenergic fibers in the EX DEN group after 2 and 8 weeks. Extrinsic denervation induces enteric neuronal cholinergic and adrenergic smooth muscle hypersensitivity in canine jejunal circular muscle.
