环氧化酶-2——骨肉瘤治疗靶点

环氧化酶(COX)是催化花生四烯酸合成前列腺素的限速酶.COX-2作为一种诱导性即刻反应基因,在炎症和肿瘤中高表达,骨肉瘤中亦发现COX-2高表达.COX-2的高表达与肿瘤的血管形成增加、细胞凋亡减少、侵袭性增加和免疫抑制相关.COX-2抑制剂则能通过COX-2途径和非COX-2途径(天冬氨酸特异性半胱氨酸蛋白酶、凋亡抑制基因bcl-2、过氧化物酶体增殖因子激活受体、神经酰胺、其他凋亡相关因子生存素、p53等)诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡,发挥抗肿瘤作用,因此COX-2成为骨肉瘤预防和治疗的靶点.COX-2抑制剂还能促进化疗和放疗效果,从而为骨肉瘤新辅助化疗和放疗等综合治疗提供理论依据.

Intracapsular fracture of the proximal femur——Operative versus nonoperative management

Taken together, these reports do not provide strong evidence in favor of either internal fixation or arthroplasty over the other relative to mortality in the treatment of intraeapsular fracture of the proximal femur. However, they do suggest a higher rate of reoperations in those receiving internal fixation compared with arthroplasty. Differing patient characteristics at baseline make direct comparisons difficult.     

胰腺癌—胰腺炎—胆胰管导管内黏液腺瘤一例分析

胆管及胰腺的导管内乳头状黏液腺瘤或黏液腺癌(Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm,IPMN)属于胆胰肿瘤的少见类型[1].以分泌大量黏液、引起胆管或者胰管扩张为主要特征,由此可以并发阻塞性黄疸、急慢性胰腺炎.发生于胆管内者,也有临床学者称之为黏胆症.由于以往对本病认识不多,报道甚少[2-5].随着诊疗手段的提高,此类病例报道逐年增加.现报道1例同时合并胆管和胰管的黏液腺瘤患者.

"药妆品"系列讲座三——维生素与药妆品

维生素(vitamin)是维持人体生命活动必需的一类有机物质,也是保持人体健康的重要活性物质.它在体内的含量很少,但在人体生长、代谢及发育过程中却发挥着重要作用.许多维生素是辅基或辅酶的组成部分,直接关系到新陈代谢.     

Mesotherapy——美容医学的新技术

Mesotherapy(中胚层疗法)是法国的Dr.MichelPistor于1952年首创并开展的治疗技术,可译成中胚层疗法或间皮疗法,为原始的皮下注射治疗技术,主要用于治疗血管性和淋巴性疾病。法国在1964年成立Mesotherapy学会;并于1976年在法国首次召开Mesotherapy学术会议;1987年法国医学会将Mesotherapy治疗技术批准为一项医学专业治疗技术。目前,在法国已有15000余名的医师进行Mesotherapy的实践。近年来,Mesotherapy在欧洲和南美洲被推广并应用于患者的体形塑造等;美国也于近年开始应用Mesotherapy[1-14]。法国著名的Mesotherapy专家、协会主席Lione…

"药妆品"系列讲座四——草药与药妆品

草药用于女性美容已有悠久的历史.例如,早在公元前14世纪,埃及皇后尼菲提就使用芦荟美容,从而拥有细嫩洁白的肌肷和柔软光滑的头发.在我国古代也有芦荟作为美容品的记载,如<岭南杂记>:"叶厚一指,而边有刺,破其叶,中有豪,好人涂掌以洋发代油"等.如今,药妆品中添加草药成分为诸多化妆品公司所推广,主要由于米源于草药的天然成分美容护肤效果确定且安全.

微创时代的乳腺外科——理想与现实的抉择

1 微创外科的快速发展推动了乳腺外科领域微创意识的渗透 传统手术治疗方法在治疗疾病的同时对患者生理及心理上造成极大创伤,现代外科提倡在治疗疾病的同时尽可能考虑到病人的精神和心理健康和康复,而追求微创伤手术和努力达到切除的彻底性和治疗效果始终是外科的一对矛盾的对立统一.20世纪后期临床外科学的重大进步之一是微创外科理论逐渐成熟和作为微创外科重要标志的腔镜手术的迅速发展.
