中医药对外教育新模式的构建及探索

教育全球化进程的加速,给中医对外教育的发展带来机遇和挑战,构建和探索中医对外教育新模式势在必行,以进一步拓展中医药对外教育和推进中医药走向世界。     

Thrombotic occlusion of the common carotid artery (CCA) in acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (TPA)

Although common carotid artery (CCA) occlusions are rare, acute clinical presentations vary from mild to devastating strokes primarily due to tandem occlusions in the intracranial arteries. Three patients with acute CCA occlusions were treated with systemic tissue plasminogen activator (TPA). Blood pressures were kept at the upper limits allowed with TPA therapy with fluid balance and the 'head-down' position. Recanalization occurred in intracranial vessels only. Marked early neurological improvement occurred in two of three patients. CCA occlusions should not be considered contra-indication to systemic thrombolysis.     

氟伐他汀对老年动脉粥样硬化所致肾动脉狭窄的临床疗效观察

目的观察氟伐他汀对老年肾动脉粥样硬化所致肾动脉狭窄(ARAS)的治疗作用及其抗炎机制。方法将在我院门诊及住院的54例老年ARAS患者,随机分为治疗组及对照组,对照组给予常规降压治疗,治疗组每晚加服氟伐他汀40 mg。比较两组治疗前及治疗后尿蛋白排泄率(UAER)、血肌酐(Scr)、C反应蛋白(CRP)及肾脏血管多普勒超声中肾动脉收缩期峰值速度(PSV)、肾动脉血流加速度时间(AT),肾动脉峰值流速与肾动脉开口处腹主动脉流速之比(RAR)等指标。结果观察期间,两组上述指标均呈下降趋势,治疗组UAER,PSV,AT,RAR下降较对照组明显(P<0.05,P<0.01),治疗组CRP下降明显(P<0.05,P<0.01),对照组CRP变化不明显(P>0.05)。而且在两组血脂正常的老年ARAS所致肾动脉狭窄的患者进行比较分析也得出类似结果。结论氟伐他汀因降低CRP的致炎效应而改善肾动脉狭窄,且不依赖氟伐他汀的降血脂作用。     

健侧颈7移位治疗臂丛神经根性撕脱伤最佳时间选择的实验研究

健侧颈７移位治疗臂丛神经根性撕脱伤手术分第一阶段（健侧颈７移位到移植神经），第二阶段（移植神经另一端移植修复患侧神经），二次手术间隔多少时间才能获得最好的神经再生？选用ＳＤ大鼠及健侧颈７移位的实验模型，按二次手术间隔时间的不同（０、１、２、３、４、８、１６周）分成７组，在第二次术后１２周，进行电生理测定肌张力恢复率及组织切片的形态学观察，结果证实二次手术最佳间隔时间为４～８周．此结果可提供临床参考．     

20例胃平滑肌肿瘤的病理-X线分析

为了提高对胃平滑肌肿瘤的认识,作者回顾性分析了20例经手术、病理证实的胃平滑肌肿瘤的钡餐造影所见。结果表明,胃底与胃体上部是胃平滑肌肿瘤的病变高发区。本病具有典型胃粘膜下肿瘤的X线特征,腔内型者可见胃内边缘光滑的充盈缺损或软组织肿块,粘膜展平或推移;腔外型者可见突出胃外肿块或/和胃与邻近脏器受压;腔内外型者具有上述双重特征,肿瘤较大者多有溃疡形成,甚至囊变,根据肿瘤的大小、形态、生长类型及溃疡表现可作良恶性鉴别。本病的术前诊断主要依靠X线钡餐检查,但无胃肠压迫的腔外型肿瘤,钡餐则难以发现,CT或选择性血管造影可助诊断。     

Therapeutic limitations of argon laser trabeculoplasty.

Sixty-one patients (82 eyes) were studied after argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) to determine the lasting efficacy of such treatment. This investigation, now in its fourth year, was prospective, and the information derived was analysed with the aid of a computer. Success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) below baseline (22 mmHg). The mean follow-up time was 24.5 months, when the success rate was 74% compared with 75% at three months. Success declined to 45% at 42 months. No significant difference was noted when (a) first lasered eyes of all patients and those fellow eyes treated were analysed separately, (b) when right and left eyes were analysed separately, nor (c) when patients were divided into two treatment groups, (I) 100 burns at 1 W, and (II) 65 burns at 850 mW. Eight of 11 eyes showed progressive postlaser field loss despite below-baseline intraocular pressures. ALT is an alternative to carbonic anhydrase inhibitor therapy, with a success rate of 66.7% at two years. However, repeat ALT was successful in only 25% of patients seven months after treatment.     

Rupture of the gravid uterus

Seventeen cases of uterine rupture in late pregnancy managed over an eight-year period in one hospital in Hong Kong were analysed. Labour was associated with rupture in 16 cases, including ten with one or more previous caesarean section scars. Rupture occurring in an unscarred uterus was associated with high fetal losses and all required hysterectomy. All of these patients had at least one previous vaginal delivery, in contrast to the patients with a scarred uterus. Labour should be closely monitored in multiparous patients with or without a uterine scar, and oxytocics should be used carefully. Patients with previous sections who are scheduled for repeat elective sections should be delivered before 39 weeks.     

醋酸棉酚对大鼠肾皮质形态结构的影响

醋酸棉酚每天30mg/kg(6次/周)给药6～8周后,大鼠肾曲小管线粒体肿胀,嵴模糊,伴有早期溶酶体增多、增大,形态多样,其后转而减少、变小。肾近曲小管微绒毛水肿,部分肾曲小管基底膜水肿。未见肾小球毛细血管内皮细胞、基膜和足细胞的超微结构明显变化。     

Pregnancy: Oral misoprostol versus placebo for cervical dilatation before vacuum aspiration in first trimester pregnancy

Intravaginal misoprostol has been shown to be effective forcervical priming before a surgically induced abortion. The objectivewas to investigate the effectiveness of oral misoprostol incervical dilatation prior to vacuum aspiration between the 6thand 12th weeks of pregnancy. The results showed that in nulliparouspatients, the median cervical dilatation in the treatment group(7.8 mm) was significantly greater than that in the placebogroup (3.7 mm). In multiparous patients, the difference wasalso statistically significant (9.8 versus 6.0 mm). The easeof dilatation, assessed subjectively by the operating surgeons,was significantly improved in the treatment group. There wasalso a significant reduction in the duration of the operationand in the mean blood loss in the treatment group. The side-effectsencountered in the treatment group were mild and well acceptedby the women. Oral misoprostol is an effective and safe methodfor cervical dilatation prior to vacuum aspiration in firsttrimester pregnancy.
