冠状动脉造影病人的心理问题及护理

目前，冠状动脉造影已成为诊断冠心病，明确冠状动脉狭窄部位、程度的重要方法，对冠心病的诊断可达定量水平，为估计病人预后、决定药物使用及介入性治疗提供了更为确切的指标。由于介入性诊治属有创性，存在一定的风险，且术后需卧床制动，因此，绝大多数病人对该术存在担心恐惧等心理，加之术中、术后所承受的不适感觉，在很大程度上影响着该术的成功及病情变化，为减轻病人恐惧与担心，增加手术的成功率，认真做好病人的心理护理就显得尤为重要。自2000年6月我科开展冠状动脉介入性诊治护理以来，对病人心理特征不断进行观察分析，现将其总结如下。     

Revascularization of the renal artery in renovascular hypertension with progressive renal insufficiency

Sixteen patients underwent surgical treatment for severe renovascular hypertension with rapidly progressive renal failure. These patients were assessed preoperatively with the measurement of serum creatinine and blood-urea levels (means 271 +/- 204 mumol/l and 15.6 +/- 10.3 mmol/l respectively), and renal clearances. 5 patients underwent aorto-renal bypass (bilateral in one case) and 11 patients were treated by autotransplantation of the kidney. Operative mortality was 6.2%. Early results were assessed at 1 and 6 months postoperatively. Renal function was normal in 8 patients, improved in 5 (p less than 0.05), unchanged in 1 and worse in 1 by aorto-renal bypass thrombosis. At long-term with a minimum follow-up of 12 months (mean 31 +/- 12 months), the initial improvement in renal function remained steady in 12 patients whilst 1 patient has gone on to hemodialysis. At middle and long-term, 81% of the patients were normotensive without medication or had improved blood pressure (p less than 0.001). These good results confirm the reversibility of renal ischemic lesions and support an aggressive attitude towards the use of revascularization in the surgical treatment of such patients with renovascular hypertension and renal failure.     

Enhanced myocardial necrosis induced in rats by the combined administration of hydralazine and prenalterol

The cardiotoxic effects of hydralazine and prenalterol, given alone and in combination, were assessed in rats and rabbits. Acute myocardial necrosis was induced by a single administration of each drug alone in rats. However, the incidence and severity of lesions were markedly enhanced when both drugs were given in combination. Rats that received the same treatment for 10 consecutive days showed minimal or no acute necrosis, demonstrating the development of a resistance to further cardiotoxic effects of the drugs. Rabbits showed only minimal lesions when either drug was used alone and no enhancement of lesions when they were given in combination. From these data, it is concluded that the possibility of a cardiotoxic interaction exists when these drugs are used in combination and that the heavy rat (500-600 g) is a more sensitive model than the rabbit for studies of this nature.     

神经肽Y对心肌蛋白质合成的影响及其意义

用~3H-亮氨酸参入法与放射免疫分析法分别测定大鼠心肌蛋白质合成速度与心脏组织中神经肽Y(NPY)含量。结果显示NPY能显著促进心肌蛋白质合成,其最大效应较去甲肾上腺素(NE)大35%,所需浓度是NE的1/100。心肌梗塞后非梗塞区组织内NPY的含量在2天时无显著改变,15天时则降低71%,提示2～15天期间该区域NPY释放增加,此为非梗塞区心肌肥大的机制之一     

ULTRASTRUCTURAL INVESTIGATION OF EXPERIMENTAL FRACTURE HEALING ROLE OF OSTEOGENESIS PLAYED BY FIBROBLASTS

Transmission electron microscopic investigation of standardized fractures of radii in 50 rabbits re vealed that fibroblasts took part in the formation of bony callus. The osteogenetic role played by the fibroblasts can be categorized into the following 5 aspects: a. Fibroblasts synthesize and secrete Type collagen fibrils and induce deposition of calcium salt crystals in the collagen fibrils. b. Fibroblasts produce matrix vesicles in their surroundings. These matrix vesicles become calcified and turn into floccu- lent calcospherules which coalesce and fuse into bone tissues. c. Fibroblasts harbor calcium granules in their mitochondria, thus providing calcium for calci- fication of the intercellular matrix and bone forma tion between the cells. d. Fibroblasts can transform directly into osteocytes; there is bone formation around the fibroblasts, the bone tissues surround the fibroblast in the form of bony lacuna, then the fibro- blast in the lacuna transforms into osteocyte. e. Fibroblasts can undergo degenerative changes leading to decease and replacement by bone tissues.     

Role of basal insulin in the regulation of protein kinetics and energy metabolism in septic patients.

We have investigated the role of basal insulin concentration on leucine kinetics (determined by means of 1-[13C]leucine) and energy metabolism (determined by indirect calorimetry) in eight septic patients by reducing insulin (and glucagon) secretion by somatostatin infusion. Basal glucagon concentration was elevated (744 +/- 381 pg/mL), and insulin concentration was normal (10 +/- 4 microU/mL). Basal resting energy expenditure (REE) was 151 +/- 8% that of predicted basal energy expenditure, and leucine appearance (Ra), oxidation, and nonoxidative disposal rates were all elevated above the normal ranges. Somatostatin infusion reduced insulin concentration by 52% and glucagon concentration by 64%. This resulted in a significant increase in the rate of leucine oxidation from 0.96 +/- 0.08 to 1.18 +/- 0.14 mumol/kg/min (p less than 0.01), and nonoxidative leucine disposal decreased from 2.95 +/- 0.18 to 2.67 +/- 0.17 mumol/kg/min (p less than 0.01). Somatostatin infusion also caused significant increases in REE and fat oxidation from 1310 +/- 100 to 1505 +/- 128 kcal/m2/day (p less than 0.05) and from 1.72 +/- 0.24 to 2.41 +/- 0.41 mg/kg/min, respectively, and a slight decrease of carbohydrate oxidation from 1.51 +/- 0.49 to 1.31 +/- 0.49 mg/kg/min. These metabolic responses can be attributed to the reduction in insulin concentration, because they are in the opposite direction of changes that would occur as a consequence of a reduction in glucagon concentration. We conclude that the basal insulin plays an important role in attenuating net protein loss and energy expenditure.
