Primary tuberculous pathology in nasolpolypi is a rare condition. A case of bilateral ethmoidal polypi with tubercular lesion diagnosed on histopathologlcal examination is being reported and the available relevant literature has been reviewed.     

LOW BIRTH WEIGHT BABIES : INCIDENCE AND RISK FACTORS

In a prospective hospital based study, during the period from Jan 95 to Dec 96, 3100 consecutively delivered live newborns were studied for the incidence of low birth weight neonates and to evaluate the associated risk factors. One thousand fourteen newborns were classified as low birth weight babies. The incidence expressed per 1000 live births was 327 (32.7%). Of these, 815 (80.4%) were small for gestational age neonates and 199 (19.6%) were preterm neonates. Five hundred seventy small for gestational age neonates (70%) were weighing between 2001 to 2500 gms. Mothers belonging to the age group of 19-25 years delivered the maximum number of low birth weight babies (618/1014) and of these 82.8% were small for gestational age neonates. There were 48 neonates with low birth weight born to mothers below the age of 18 years. Primiparous mothers were found to contribute higher number of low birth weight neonates (414/1014). Spacing as a factor did not show any major difference. Two hundred sixty two low birth weight neonates were born to mothers with significant obstetrical problems such as pregnancy induced hypertension, bad obstetrical history and premature rupture of membranes. The incidence of 32.7% of low birth weight babies is high enough to ring alarm bells.     

猪脑钠素及其类似物的合成

以固相多肽合成方法合成了猪的二十六肽脑钠素(BNP)和它的一个类似物(Mpr⁴,D-Ala^6,13)-BNP(4-24)-NH₂,保护肽用HF裂解除去保护基、在碱性条件下空气氧化形成二硫桥后,粗产物经凝胶过滤和高效液相色谱分离纯化,均有与天然脑钠素相同的活性。合成肽相对于树脂初始取代量的产率分别为9.56%和11.03%。

人参叶中微量新皂甙-La的分离与鉴定

前已报道从人参(Panax ginseng C.A.Meyer)叶中分到三种微量新皂甙。在继续研究的基础上,又得到一个微量新皂甙,命名为人参皂甙-La(ginsenoside-La)。人参皂甙-La,无色针晶(MeOH),[α]D~(20)—18.4(Pyridine-d_5)。负离子FAB-MS
