OXYGEN FREE RADICAL IN HUMAN OSTEOARTHRITIS

The xanthine oxidase catalysed release of superoxide free radicals (O2-) from endogenous hypoxanthine was determined in homogenates of synovium obtained from three groups of patients, those undergoing primary or revision total hip replacement (THR) for osteoarthritis and those undergoing arthroscopy of the knee for semilunar disc injuries. The concentrations of hypoxanthine in homogenates obtained during THR were found to be significantly higher than those in the group with semilunar disc injuries. The results suggest that there is a greater predisposition to free radical release and tissue damage in osteoarthritis.     

透明质酸酶对大鼠双光气中毒性肺水肿治疗的初步观察

本实验初步现察了HA对双光气中毒性肺水肿早期的治疗作用。结果提示,早期应用HA能显著延长动物存活时间,而治疗组与对照组动物在肺体指数、肺湿干重量比及肺含水量等项指标则未见显著差别。     

急性输液反应的影响因素及防治措施

目的 对临床发生的急性输液反应进行分析，找出发生的原因，探讨预防措施。方法对201885例次输液治疗中的52例次输液反应资料进行分析。结果 经分析，属药物因素27例（52％），属操作因素11例（21％），属病人因素11例（21％），属输液器具因素3例（6％）。结论 把好药品和操作关，改善操作环境，严格操作规程是减少输液反应的关键。     

加强卫生高职院校学风建设的思考

良好的学风是学校办学思想、培养目标、工作作风和学习精神的综合反映,是培养高素质人才的需要,是贯彻党的教育方针的根本保证,是目前卫生高等职业技术学校面临的重要课题。就学风及相关因素、问题及成因、学风建设的对策等问题进行初步探讨。     

A novel DRB1*09 allelic sequence in the Jing ethnic minority of China.

A new DRB1 allele, DRB1*0902, has been identified in an individual of the Jing ethnic minority. Its sequence was confirmed by sequencing of PCR products and clones. This allele differed by three nucleotides from DRB1*09012 at positions 157, 161 and 166, and resulted in amino acid motif substitution from VAES to DAEY.     

Atrial natriuretic peptide inhibits sympathetic outflow in NaCl-sensitive spontaneously hypertensive rats.

The current study tested the hypothesis that circulating atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) inhibits sympathetic outflow, as reflected in lumbar sympathetic nerve activity (LSNA), in NaCl-sensitive spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR-S) and that this effect is exaggerated by high NaCl feeding. NaCl-resistant SHR (SHR-R) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats maintained on basal and high-NaCl diets were used as controls. Intravenous administration of ANP to conscious, freely moving rats with intact baroreflexes decreased blood pressure and LSNA in SHR-S, SHR-R and WKY rats maintained on basal or high-NaCl diets for 2-3 weeks. The depressor response to intravenous ANP was greater in 8% NaCl-fed SHR-S than in any other group; the LSNA response was greater in SHR-S on either diet than in any other group. Intracerebroventricular administration of ANP evoked small, transient sympatholytic responses in SHR-S on both diets and minimal responses in SHR-R and WKY rats; these responses could not be attributed to leakage of ANP into the peripheral circulation. Thus, circulating ANP has a sympatholytic effect in SHR-S that is not amplified by high-NaCl feeding and can be only partially accounted for by a central action.     

Percutaneous recanalization of chronic subclavian artery occlusion using optical coherence reflectometry-guided radiofrequency ablation guidewire.

Subclavian artery lesion that is associated with low complication rate could be treated by percutaneous intervention effectively. However, the success of endovascular therapy for occlusive lesion may be limited by failure to cross with a guidewire. We describe the use of a system using optical coherence reflectometry for navigation and radiofrequency ablation to enable wire passage through subclavian artery occlusion that could not be crossed by conventional guidewires.
