鹿茸多肽的纯化和鉴定(英文)

应用凝胶过虑和离子交换层析等技术,从鹿茸(pilose antler or Cervus nipponTemminck)中分离纯化出一种多肽(peptide of pilose antler,PAP)。经高效液相色谱和N-末端氨基酸分析鉴定为单一多肽,氨基酸组成分析证明,PAP是由68个氨基酸组成,分子是为7200。药理研究证明,PAP对大鼠角叉菜胶性足肿胀具有明显的抑制作用并呈现良好的量—效关系。     

Incremental diagnostic benefit of resolution recovery software in patients with equivocal myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)

Background

Though myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is an established diagnostic method, equivocal studies are commonly encountered. New software has been introduced that incorporates resolution recovery (RR) and noise regulation into the reconstruction algorithm and has been used to facilitate “half-dose” and “half-time” studies. Its utility with “full-time, full-dose” acquisition has not been well studied.

Objective

We sought to understand the potential benefit of incorporating RR software in equivocal SPECT studies.

Methods

Patients with full-time, full-dose SPECT MPI were reviewed and those with equivocal results, who subsequently underwent cardiac Rb-82 positron emission tomography (PET) scan were identified. Image reconstruction was performed with iterative reconstruction (IR), attenuation correction (IR + AC), and RR software (IR + AC + RR). Images were anonymized and read blindly by consensus of two experienced readers. All images were qualitatively assessed and semi-quantitatively graded using summed stress and summed rest scores.

Results

45 patients were included (28 males, age = 59.6 ± 9.9 years) and the diagnostic accuracy of each of the reconstruction algorithms (IR, IR + AC, IR + AC + RR) was compared to Rb-82 PET. Agreement of clinical diagnosis of each SPECT reconstruction with Rb-PET showed incremental improvement. The agreement with PET for IR + AC + RR (κ = 0.66, CI 0.454-0.875) is significantly better than for IR (κ = 0.22, CI 0.0-0.450, P = .005) and for IR + AC (κ = 0.32, CI 0.077-0.563, P = .03). Also, IR + AC + RR improved the clinical diagnosis in 14 cases and with overall improvement of reclassification proportion of 23.5% compared to IR (P = .01). Using PET as a reference standard, ROC curves were created for IR + AC + RR, IR + AC, and IR which showed incremental value of the area under the curve of IR + AC + RR (AUC: 0.87; CI 0.76-0.98) over IR + AC (AUC: 0.75; CI 0.61-0.89, P = .078), and over IR (AUC 0.68; CI 0.52-0.84, P = .025).

Conclusion

The addition of RR may help in the diagnosis of patients with equivocal SPECT MPI without the need for additional testing. Further prospective studies are needed to define the role of this new software.     

氯胺酮麻醉前不同时间肌内注射阿托品对小儿呼吸道的影响

目的探讨氯胺酮麻醉前不同时间肌内注射阿托品对小儿呼吸道的影响。方法将2012年1月至2013年6月在廊坊市第四人民医院住院的100例患儿按随机数字表法分为两组:A组(50例)于氯胺酮麻醉前30~60 min肌内注射阿托品(0.02 mg/kg),B组(50例)阿托品(0.02 mg/kg)与氯胺酮同时间肌内注射。两组患儿均于氯胺酮肌内注射2~4 min后入室准备手术,术中观察记录两组患儿呼吸道和肺部的听诊变化及脉搏血氧饱和度(Sp O2)变化。结果 A组Ⅰ级(即呼吸道未受影响)44例,Ⅱ级以上(即呼吸道受到不同程度影响)6例,阳性率为12%(6/50);B组Ⅰ级33例,Ⅱ级以上17例,阳性率为34%(17∕50)。两组患儿呼吸道受影响程度的比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论小儿氯胺酮麻醉前30 min肌内注射阿托品,能有效降低氯胺酮对患儿呼吸道的影响,提高术中患儿的安全系数。

Graft-versus-host reaction affecting lesional skin but not normal skin in a patient with piebaldism

Summary A case of graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) arising solely within an area affected by piebaldism is described. The patient, a 35-year-old woman with a single hypopigmented patch on the right leg present since birth, had received an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) from an HLA-identical sibling donor, for treatment of a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Beginning on day + 38 post-BMT, the patch developed changes which were histologically consistent with GVHD. Syngeneic mixed epidermal cell-lymphocyte reaction (MECLR) testing of tissue from the patch, and from adjacent normal skin, showed differences which suggest that piebaldism-affected skin is immunologically different from normal skin. These findings may offer new insight into the pathophysiology of this disorder.     

虚性便秘的研究思路

对近年来中西医对便秘的研究状况进行简单回顾,认为现代医学对便秘流行病学、发病机制的研究已取得了一定进展,但尚需加强。治疗上,中医药有着独特疗效,特别是对虚性便秘,且具有不易引起药物依赖性的优势,但其治疗机制不清。目前已有研究提示,与胃肠运动有关脑肠肽的分泌及表达异常与便秘密切相关,因此从该角度深入探讨中药治疗便秘获效的作用靶点可能对其机制的阐明有较好的启示作用。
