The utility of fine needle aspiration in parotid malignancy.

OBJECTIVE: To determine clinical utility of fine needle aspiration (FNA) in parotid neoplasia. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Retrospective cohort study. METHODS: FNA and final pathology data were reviewed for patients who underwent parotidectomy for malignancy. Surgical outcomes were compared between patients with malignant cytology versus nonmalignant/nondiagnostic cytology. RESULTS: Twenty-seven of 33 primary malignant parotid lesions underwent FNA. Seventeen (63.0%) patients were diagnosed with cancer on FNA. The remaining 16 patients did not undergo FNA (n = 6), had a nondiagnostic FNA specimen (n = 5), or were incorrectly diagnosed with a benign lesion (n = 5). Patients who went on to parotidectomy with intent to treat malignancy based on FNA had significantly higher rates of upfront neck dissections (47.1% vs 12.5%, P = 0.036) as well as clear pathological margins (70.6% vs 31.3%, P = 0.027) vs those with nonmalignant FNA diagnoses. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative FNA diagnosis of malignancy improves surgical treatment of parotid cancer. SIGNIFICANCE: FNA in the evaluation of parotid masses should strongly be considered.     

Early ocular hypertension after cataract extraction

The intraocular pressure (IOP) course during the first postoperative month was measured with Goldmann applanation tonometry in 93 eyes. The patients include 30 eyes of intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE), 32 eyes of extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and 31 eyes of ECCE combined with posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC-IOL) implantation. The preoperative average IOP was 13.30 +/- 3.24 mmHg in 93 eyes. The first day after cataract extraction was 25.33 +/- 8.18 mmHg and 59 eyes (63.44%) had an IOP higher than 23 mmHg. On the second day it was 16.03 +/- 7.54 mmHg. On the third day it was 14.69 +/- 5.45 mmHg. On the seventh day it was 13.32 +/- 3.44 mmHg and only 2 eyes (2.14%) IOP was higher than 23 mmHg. The first postoperative month average IOP was 12.93 +/- 1.31 mmHg and it was above 23 mmHg in only one eye. When compared with preoperation a significant increase in IOP was found postoperatively. But on the seventh day and after the first month there was no significant difference (P greater than 0.05). The IOP rise among ICCE group, ECCE group and PC-IOL group did not differ significantly.     

Gemfibrozil in the treatment of hyperlipidemia

An elevated serum cholesterol level is a well known major risk factor for developing atherosclerosis in general, and for coronary heart disease in particular. There are many lipid lowering agents currently available. We used gemfibrozil in twenty hyperlipidemic cases who failed to response to diet control for three months. They were thirteen males and seven females with their ages ranging from thirty to eighty-one year-old. They included ten diabetes, one nephrotic syndrome and nine pure hyperlipidemic patients. All cases received gemfibrozil 600mg twice daily for 4-12 weeks. Gemfibrozil caused an increase in HDL cholesterol. The reductions in serum level of total cholesterol, total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol, and triglyceride were found. Only one case developed mild gastrointestinal side effect. There was no other major side effects.     

儿童白内障术后远期结果的研究进展

本文对近几年一些学者对儿童白内障远期随访结果进行了综述和评价。手术时机选择、儿童特殊的屈光变化以及如何精确测定儿童植入人工晶状体性能及屈光度都对儿童白内障术后远期视功能产生影响。慢性青光眼是儿童白内障术后远期丧失视力的主要原因。长期弱视治疗是获得手术成功的保证之一。因此，要真正获得有用的视功能，应重视儿童白内障手术后的后续治疗，并提议应建立完善的白内障术后追踪随访和弱视治疗机构。     

Effect of transplanted osteogenic sarcoma on urinary RNA catabolites

The usefulness of urinary RNA catabolites as markers for the early detection of a transplantable rat tumor and for the completeness of its resection was evaluated. The lack of correlation between tumor growth or size and the time of appearance of the elevated catabolites precludes their use for the early detection of cancer in this model. Complete removal of the tumor restored the elevated levels to normal but, if regrowth occurred, the elevated levels persisted, suggesting their possible use in monitoring the effectiveness of surgery. The data suggest that increased excretion of RNA catabolites is derived primarily from host tissue.     

婴幼儿患者手术的护理要点

目的进一步认识婴幼儿患者实施外科手术的危险性及规范手术配合程序的重要性,提高配合质量,提出手术配合要点。方法回顾近几年168例婴幼儿患者外科手术护理配合,同时结合自己的临床实际经验和手术配合中的体会,提炼出婴幼儿患者手术的护理配合要点。结果婴幼儿患者手术的配合要做好术前评估,掌握患者心肺主要脏器的功能情况,做好充分准备,手术室感染控制,术中的各项检测,监测输液量、速度及体温维持情况。结论掌握婴幼儿患者手术的护理配合要点,可提高手术配合质量和手术成功率。     

过氯酸铵对家兔肺组织TGF-β1和TNF-αmRNA表达的影响

目的探讨过氯酸铵（AP）对家兔肺组织转化生长因子-β1（TGF-β1）和肿瘤坏死因子-α（TNF-α）mRNA表达的影响。方法将25只家兔随机分为5组：AP低（22．5mg／kg）、中（45mg／kg）、高（90mg／kg）剂量组，对照组（生理盐水）和博来霉素组（BLMA5，4mg／只），采用气管内注入方式每周染毒1次，共染毒13周，于第23周处死家兔并取肺组织，用逆转录聚合酶链式反应（RT-PCR）检测肺组织中TGF-β1和TNF-α mRNA的表达。结果AP不同剂量染毒后，低、中、高各剂量组及博来霉素组的TGF-β1（1．11±0．22，1．54±0．18，1．84±0．10，2．36±0．85）和TNF-α mRNA（1．10±0．24，1．26±0．11，1．87±0．11，2．34±0．75）表达均比对照组（0．47±0．09，0．51±0．24）明显升高，差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05或P〈0．01）。结论AP可使家兔肺组织中致纤维化细胞因子TGF-β1，和TNF-α mRNA表达增加。
