目的评价丙泊酚靶控输注在儿童鼻内镜手术中对血压、心率、术野出血及术后苏醒过程的影响。方法86例因腺样体肥大拟行手术患儿,ASA为Ⅰ-Ⅱ级,随机分成二组,每组43例,B组行丙泊酚靶控输注麻醉,I组行异氟醚吸入麻醉。分别观察手术开始后10,25,45 m in血压、心率变化及术野质量评分,记录术毕患儿自主呼吸恢复时间、睁眼时间、拔管时间,观察术后恶心、呕吐、躁动的发生率。结果①两组收缩压、舒张压和术野质量评分无显著差异;②B组患儿术后自主呼吸恢复时间、睁眼时间、拔管时间显著短于I组;③I组并发症高于B组。结论丙泊酚靶控输注用于儿童鼻内镜手术,血压、心率、术野质量评分佳,术毕麻醉恢复更为迅速、优良。     

拉萨S0S儿童村家庭膳食的调查与评价

[目的]了解中国拉萨SOS儿童村儿童的膳食结构及营养状况,并根据膳食调查结果和存在的问题,提出合理膳食建议。[方法]2005年12月采用食物称重法,对中国拉萨SOS儿童村负责供养168名4～16岁儿童的17户家庭进行了为期5 d的膳食调查。[结果]17户家庭中绝大部分家庭膳食模式不尽合理,油脂摄入过多,大部分家庭脂肪供热百分比﹥30%;动物性食品摄入量及品种偏少,致使所有家庭的钙摄入量普遍不足,70%左右家庭的核黄素、40%左右家庭的蛋白质摄入量不足;多数家庭维生素A和铁虽然超出供给量标准,但是来源于动物性食品的比例很低。[结论]膳食模式的不合理性,势必影响儿童的正常发育和身心健康。因此,进一步加强营养知识的传授显得极为迫切和必要。     

Identification of toxocara canis antigens by Western blot in experimentally infected rabbits

Toxocariasis is a frequent helminthiasis that can cause visceral and ocular damage in humans specially in children. The identification of specific antigens of Toxocara canis is important in order to develop better diagnostic techniques. Ten rabbits were infected orally with a dose of 5000 Toxocara canis embryonated eggs. Rabbits were bled periodically and an ELISA assay was performed to determine levels of specific Toxocara IgG antibodies. ELISA detected antibodies at day 15 after infection. Western blot (WB) assay was performed using excretory/secretory antigens (E/S) of T. canis second stage larvae. Different antigen concentrations were evaluated: 150, 200, 250 and 300 micro g/mL. The concentration of 250 micro g/mL was retained for analysis. Rabbit sera were diluted 1:100. Secondary antibody was used at a dilution of 1:1000. Results of WB indicated that in the first month after infection specific antibodies against the 200 KDa, 116 KDa, 92 KDa and 35 KDa antigens were detected; antibodies against the 92 KDa, 80 KDa, 66 KDa, 45 KDa, 31 KDa and 28 KDa antigens appeared later. All positive sera in the ELISA test were also positive in WB. Two antigen bands, 92 KDa and 35 KDa, were identified since the beginning and throughout the course of infection. These antigens merit further evaluation as candidates for use in diagnosis.     

Complete mapping of a novel HLA A*6801-restricted HIV-1 Tat epitope directly with a rapid modified enzyme-linked immunospot assay

We identified a novel HLA A*6801-restricted HIV-1 Tat-derived cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope using an adapted enzyme-linked immunospot assay that allows the rapid ex vivo identification of CTL epitopes together with their associated HLA Class I restriction elements. The optimal 11 amino acid residue Tat epitope efficiently stabilized the refolding of monomeric peptide-HLA A6801 complexes in vitro and fluorochrome-labelled, tetrameric peptide-HLA A6801 complexes stained CD8 T cells specific for this epitope directly ex vivo.

Uric acid effects on in vitro models of rheumatoid inflammatory and autoimmune processes.

A neutrophil monolayer system was used to study the effects of uric acid on neutrophil-aggregate interactions important in rheumatoid inflammation. No effect on immunoglobulin G aggregate phagocytosis was seen, but hyperuricaemic levels of uric acid were associated with an enhancement of phagocytosis-induced release of the azurophilic granular enzyme beta-glucuronidase. A trinitrophenyl-coupled mononuclear leucocyte rheumatoid factor plaque-forming assay was utilised to study uric acid effects on polyclonal activation of immunocompetent cells. Low levels of uric acid enhanced and high levels suppressed this system. Hyperuricaemia may enhance some aspects of rheumatoid inflammation, while uric acid may modulate an important component of rheumatoid autoimmunity.     

Long-term nutritional and digestive consequences of pelvic radiation

OBJECTIVE: To study long-term changes in nutritional status and gastrointestinal (GI) functions of 15 women previously treated with radiotherapy for gynecological cancer. Two years prior to this research, these patients had been assessed twice: before external radiotherapy and 5 weeks later, at the completion of the external dose (45-50 Gy). METHODS: Each patient was given complete clinical evaluation, consisting of dietary, physical activity and digestive symptoms questionnaires. Blood was drawn for routine clinical laboratory tests (hemoglobin, white blood cell count, creatinine, lipoproteins, glucose, total proteins, albumin, and C reactive protein). Body composition was assessed by classical anthropometric indicators and double beam X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), while muscle strength was measured through a hand dynamometer. Resting energy expenditure (REE), obtained by indirect calorimetry, was subtracted from energy ingestion, derived from dietary records, to calculate energy balance. RESULTS: This third evaluation included fifteen patients. A significant increase in body mass index (BMI), % body fat and waist circumference were observed in comparison to earlier evaluations. The lean compartment decreased significantly, and REE descended in parallel. Meanwhile, total energy, fat and protein intake increased, compared to previous measurements. The changes in bowel habits observed during radiotherapy persisted at this third evaluation, with the exception of diarrhea, which was less reported. Abdominal bloating and rectal symptoms were the most prevalent complaints. CONCLUSIONS: After radiation treatment for gynecological cancer, patients gained more body fat than expected in Chilean women around menopause. In spite of high protein ingestion, the loss of fat-free mass observed during radiation treatment was not recovered along with weight increase. This is probably associated with infrequent physical activity, both during and after treatment, and hyperphagia.
