Outcome of frozen embryo replacement cycles following elective cryopreservation of all embryos in women at risk of developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

Aim: Our aim was to compare the outcome in subsequent frozen embryo replacement cycles in four groups of patients who had elective cryopreservation of all their embryos because they were considered to be at increased risk of developing severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Design: Sixty-two (91%) of 68 IVF cycles (68 patients) in which elective cryopreservation of all embryos was performed were analyzed. All patients continued on the GnRH agonist, buserelin, after oocyte recovery until the onset of vaginal bleeding. Frozen embryo replacement occurred in a hormone replacement cycle that started either on day 3 of the withdrawal bleed (group I;N=15) or after serum estradiol levels had fallen to <100 pmol/L (group II;N=16). The other patients commenced a frozen embryo replacement cycle several months later in either a hormone replacement (group III;N=15) or a natural (group IV;N=16) cycle. Results: Two patients developed severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. There were no significant differences among the four groups regarding demographic variables, the dose of hMG used, and the clinical outcome. There was a higher but not significantly different clinical pregnancy rate in group I (26.7%), compared to group II (12.5%), group III (13.3%), and group IV (18.8%). Conclusions: Several options exist for the timing and protocol used for frozen embryo replacement in patients who had elective cryopreservation for the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, none of which was found to be clearly superior in this observational report.Presented at the 1994 Annual Conference of the American Fertility Society.     

矽肺动物模型全肺灌洗治疗的病理观察

通过对动物模型实验治疗的病理观察，评价全肺大容量灌洗治疗矽肺的效果，并优选灌洗液。对４０只家兔和１０只幼猪经ＳｉＯ２染尘处理后，各随机分为药物组、盐水组和对照组。４～５周后施行全肺大容量灌洗。治疗后３～５个月处死各组动物，进行病理双盲检查。经统计学秩和检验，兔与猪各组肺矽结节纤维化级别分布的差异有非常显著意义（Ｐ＜０．００５）。经卡方检验，各灌洗组的纤维化程度与对照组相比，差异亦有非常显著意义（Ｐ＜０．０１）。灌洗液中药与盐水比，Ｐ＜０．０５；盐水与西药比，Ｐ＜０．０５。兔和猪矽肺各灌洗组的效果明显优于对照组。灌洗液中药优于盐水，盐水又优于西药     

急性高血压脑出血的治疗体会

本文对62例急性高血压脑出血进行了着重于治疗的分析。脑出血病严重威胁患者生命,死亡率高,病残率高。治疗的关键是绝对卧床,避免搬动;积极治疗及控制脑水肿、降低颅内压;头置冰帽以减低脑耗氧量,减轻脑水肿,促进脑细胞功能的恢复;加强护理,预防及治疗并发症是提高患者生存时间及存活率的重要环节;对出血量多、患者一般情况较好者,作者主张手术治疗,清除颅内血肿,可减轻症状,提高存活率及降低病残率。     

Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte Surface Antigen Expression and Prognosis in Myeloma: Australian Leukaemia Study Group Study

The Australian Leukaemia Study Group myeloma study (MM1) aimed to determine the prognostic significance of clinical and immunophenotypic markers in patients with multiple myeloma. All patients were treated with standard dose melphalan and prednisone. Seventy-four patients were entered and the median survival was 27 months. Serum beta 2-microglobulin (βM) and albumin levels were the only significant clinical factors influencing survival (p = 0.007 and p = 0.008, respectively). Patients with raised levels of CD38+ lymphocytes at presentation had a significantly shorter survival than patients with normal levels (p = 0.01, logrank test, median 19 months vs 33 months). CD38 antigen expression was independent of β2M but patients with raised levels of CD38 had significantly lower levels of albumin than patients with normal levels (p = 0.001) which may explain their poorer survival. Salmon and Durie stage was not associated with antigen expression. No other B-cell antigens (CD10, CD19, CD20, CD21, CD22, CD23, FMC1 or FMC7) or plasma cell antigens tested (PCA-1) were found to be associated with prognosis. Patients who achieved plateau phase had a better prognosis than those who did not (p = 0.04 in a landmark analysis). Patients who achieved plateau phase following an objective response appeared to have a better prognosis than those who were in plateau phase at presentation (p = 0.09 in a landmark analysis). Light chain isotype suppression (LCIS) was not associated with a significant survival advantage and did not correlate with any known prognostic indicator. We conclude that phenotypic analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes for CD38 antigen at diagnosis may be useful as a prognostic indicator in patients with myeloma.     

The spectrum of opportunistic filamentous fungi present in the CBS culture collection

The mould collection of the Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Baarn, The Netherlands, was screened for isolates originating from warm-blooded animals. The range of species indicates that distribution of clinically relevant, pathogenic or opportunistic strains over the fungal kingdom is non-random. Some opportunistic fungi possess adaptations to life under hostile environmental conditions, enabling them to survive inside the human body. Presence of melanin or carotene seems to be an important virulence factor. Opportunistic fungi which sporulate in submersion are able to disseminate or cause severe local mycoses when the aspecific immune system of the host is impaired. Mycoses caused by a few dimorphic fungi, mostly in their natural ecological niche living in association with vertebrates, are promoted by specific immune deficiencies.     

原发性肾小球疾病患者T淋巴细胞亚群变化的初探

本文应用磁性磷酸酶－抗碱性磷酸酶桥联酶标技术（APAAP），对27例原发性肾小球疾病患者外周血T淋巴细胞亚群进行观察。结果表明：本组病例表现为CD细胞升高，CD细胞减少，和CD／CD比值增加。提示原发性肾小球疾病可导致细胞免疫功能改变，T淋巴细胞亚群的变化，是肾组织损害的一个间接证据，可作为临床诊断一个有价值的参考指标。

不同类型高危儿早期干预的临床研究

目的 探索早期干预对窒息、高胆、早产三类高危儿智力发育改善的效果，寻找更合适的早期干预措施。方法 将三类高危儿分为干预组及对照组，同时随机选取正常对照组进行随访。干预组采用鲍秀兰教授“0～3岁”早期干预方案训练，各组均在6个月、1岁时分别采用婴幼儿智能发育量表(CDCC)进行智力发育测评，结果用MDI、PDI表示。结果 (1)6个月龄时MDI各干预组与对照组间有显著性差异，窒息组、早产组与正常组间亦有显著性差异；高胆组与正常组间无差异；PDI窒息组中干预组与对照组之间有显著差异(P＜0．01)，高胆组、早产组均无差异(P＞0．05)。(2)1岁时MDI和PDI结果一致，干预组与对照组间比较窒息组、高胆组有显著差异，早产组无差异；窒息组、高胆组干预组与正常组比较无差异，对照组和早产组与正常组比较均有显著差异(P＜0．01)。(3)所有干预组测评分值均高于对照组，6个月与1岁之间比较有显著差异，各观察组间比较有显著性差异(P＜0．01)。结论 三类高危儿早期干预效果差异较大，干预组均较对照组分值高，早期干预有改善智力发育的作用；三类高危儿中，窒息组、高胆组效果最好，均达到或超过正常水平。所有未干预组均不及正常水平；早期干预对足月高危儿效果显著，对早产儿欠佳，远期效果尚需进一步随访观察。     

慢性稳定性心绞痛患者肺炎衣原体感染检测的意义

目的　探讨肺炎衣原体感染与慢性稳定性心绞痛患者血中炎症标志物之间的关系。方法　采用微量免疫荧光法 (MIF)和酶联免疫法 (ELISA)对 5 2例经冠状动脉造影证实的慢性稳定心绞痛患者 (CSA)血中肺炎衣原体IgG抗体 (CpIgG)和肿瘤坏死因子 α(TNF α)、白细胞介素 6 (IL 6 )、C 反应蛋白 (CRP)进行检测。结果　在慢性稳定性心绞痛患者组中CpIgG阳性率为 5 5 .77% ;而CpIgG滴度与TNF α、IL 6和CRP单因素及多因素回归分析发现只有CpIgG与TNF α显著相关 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,但与IL 6和CRP之间无显著相关性 (P <0 .0 5 )。在慢性稳定性心绞痛患者中肺炎衣原体感染可能促进TNF α的升高 ,但肺炎衣原体的感染不是导致斑块不稳定的主要因素     

红细胞对创伤性脑内出血大鼠脑含水量及HO-1表达的影响

目的研究大鼠创伤性脑内出血(TICH)中红细胞对脑含水量和血红素氧合酶-1(HO-1)表达的影响,并分析二者的关系,以探讨红细胞在TICH后脑水肿形成中的作用机制。方法120只大鼠随机分为创伤性脑损伤组(TBI组),TBI加注全血组(WB组),TBI加注溶解红细胞组(LRBC组)和TBI加注压积红细胞组(PRBC组),每组30只。4组均采用自由落体打击法造成大鼠脑外伤。后3组借助立体定向仪分别向伤区脑皮质内注射全血、溶解红细胞或压积红细胞,造成TICH模型。每组于伤后1、3、5d分别处死10只大鼠,5只测伤区脑组织含水量,5只用免疫组化法检测HO-1的表达。结果4组组内比较:TBI、WB和PRBC3组第3d的脑含水量最高(分别为82.85%±0.60%,85.00%±1.12%,84.93%±1.21%),LRBC组第1d的含水量最高(84.44%±0.85%;4组间比较,1d时LRBC组含水量最高,3d时WB和PRBC组含水量最高。在WB、PRBC和LRBC组,HO-1阳性表达的强弱与脑含水量的高低变化相一致。结论红细胞在TICH后迟发性脑水肿的形成中有重要作用,其机制涉及红细胞的降解产物。
