本经取穴调控无先兆偏头痛患者基因表达谱的研究

【目的】研究针刺少阳经穴与针刺非经非穴治疗无先兆偏头痛患者前后的基因表达谱。【方法】采用基因芯片技术,分析比较采用经穴（经穴组）和非经非穴（非经非穴组）治疗无先兆偏头痛患者（各10例）后基因表达谱的差异;选取部分基因进行Real-time聚合酶链反应（RT－PCR）,验证基因芯片结果的准确性。【结果】经穴组治疗前后筛选出72个差异基因;非经非穴组治疗前后筛选出110个差异基因。经穴组差异基因涉及的功能包括脑内啡肽酶、 ATP合酶等,与治疗该病的关联性大。但非经非穴组涉及的基因功能广泛且分散,与治疗该病关联性较小,如细胞凋亡、 DNA修复等。 RT－PCR检测了经穴组的ATPAF2、 PTGS2、 TOR3A基因,非经非穴组的ACP2、 AURKA、 ARHGEF11、 CASP8基因,验证了基因芯片数据的可靠性。【结论】本经取穴治疗无先兆偏头痛的经穴效应在分子水平是多基因作用的综合结果,而非经非穴产生的安慰效应并未找到与之对应的与治疗无先兆偏头痛相关的靶基因,进一步证明了经穴效应的存在。     

Clinical effects of antiplatelet drugs and statins on D‐dimer levels

Background

Acute pulmonary embolism may be ruled out by combining nonhigh clinical probability and a normal D‐dimer level. Both antiplatelet drugs and HMG‐CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) have been associated with effects on thrombus formation, potentially influencing D‐dimer levels in this setting, leading to a higher rate of false‐negative tests. Therefore, we determined whether D‐dimer levels in patients with suspected pulmonary embolism are affected by concomitant use of antiplatelet drugs and/or statins and evaluated whether the effect of antiplatelet drugs or statins might affect diagnostic accuracy.

Materials and methods

We performed a posthoc analysis in the YEARS diagnostic study, comparing age‐ and sex‐adjusted D‐dimer levels among users of antiplatelet drugs, statins and nonusers. We then reclassified patients within the YEARS algorithm by developing a model in which we adjusted D‐dimer cut‐offs for statin use and evaluated diagnostic accuracy.

Results

We included 156 statins users, 147 antiplatelet drugs users and 726 nonusers of either drugs, all with suspected pulmonary embolism . Use of antiplatelet drugs did not have a significant effect, whereas statin use was associated with 15% decrease in D‐dimer levels (95% CI, ?28% to ?0.6%). An algorithm with lower D‐dimer thresholds in statin users yielded lower specificity (0.42 compared to 0.33) with no difference in false‐negative tests.

Conclusions

We conclude that use of statins but not of antiplatelet agents is associated with a modest decrease in D‐dimer levels. Adjusting D‐dimer cut‐offs for statin use did, however, not result in a safer diagnostic strategy in our cohort.

     

经胸与经食管超声心动图在先天性心脏病介入治疗中的应用

导管室介入封堵及外科小切口介入封堵都已经被广泛地应用于临床,封堵成功的关键在于经胸与经食管超声心动图在术前对病例精确的筛选、术中监测及术后即刻评价。文章结合目前国内外文献及临床病例,对经胸与经食管超声心动图在房间隔缺损、室间隔缺损和动脉导管未闭3种常见先天性心脏病介入治疗中的应用进行综述,为临床提供更加准确的超声影像学诊断依据。     

肠球菌医院感染特征及新型抗菌药物耐药性研究

目的探讨肠球菌属细菌分布及耐药性特征,为指导临床合理用药及控制医院感染提供依据。方法对该院2011年1月至2013年12月年临床送检标本进行细菌分离培养、鉴定和药敏试验。结果共检出肠球菌属细菌140株,屎肠球菌71株(50.7%),粪肠球菌60株(42.9%),其他肠球菌9株(6.4%),其中尿液99株(70.7%);粪肠球菌对青霉素、氨苄西林、红霉素的耐药率为15.0%、12.5%和75.0%,屎肠球菌对青霉素、氨苄西林、左氧氟沙星、环丙沙星、红霉素耐药率大于80.0%,粪肠球菌和屎肠球菌对万古霉素(5.0%、4.2%)、利奈唑胺(8.4%、1.4%)极度敏感,喹奴普丁/达福普丁对粪肠球菌耐药率(100.0%)高于屎肠球菌(26.7%),达托霉素无耐药菌株。结论肠球菌属以泌尿系统感染为主,屎肠球菌检出率略大于粪肠球菌,屎肠球菌对大多数抗菌药物耐药率高于粪肠球菌,喹奴普丁/达福普丁仅对屎肠球菌有较高敏感性,万古霉素、利奈唑胺、达托霉素对肠球菌属细菌保持极高敏感性。

Hemodynamic Effect of Propafenone and the Experience in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure

The effects of propafenone on left ventricular function and hemodynamics are presented in this study. In one group of 13 patients who underwent electrophysiological testing and subsequent chronic oral therapy with propafenone, eight had left ventricular ejection fractions determined by nuclear study before and during therapy with the drug. Initial measurements ranged from 22% to 39% (mean 30%), while those on chronic therapy showed no statistical difference and ranged from 22% to 48% (mean 30%). In a separate dose titration study of 14 patients, left ventricular ejection fraction showed a modest but significant decrease (52%± 9% to 48%± 11%; p < 0.05). This change was more marked in patients with an initial low ejection fraction. Propafenone appears to be safe in these patients but should be administered with caution in patients with particularly low ejection fractions.
