中医药对糖尿病足溃疡相关细胞因子调控作用的研究进展

糖尿病足溃疡是糖尿病严重的破坏性并发症,致残率及致死率逐年增高,严重威胁人类身心健康。中医药治疗糖尿病足溃疡,注重辨证论治与整体观念相结合,不仅能改善中医证候,更能在加速创面愈合的同时减少创面的复发,一定程度上延缓了糖尿病足溃疡的进一步恶化,降低其致残率及致死率。现代研究发现,糖尿病足溃疡难以愈合与各种细胞因子如炎症因子、生长因子、趋化因子等分布异常密切相关;随着现代医学对中医药研究的不断深入,中药单体及复方调控细胞因子治疗糖尿病足溃疡已成为研究热点,该文通过对目前国内外研究现状进行归纳,得出以下总结：(1)芝麻酚、栀子苷、当归补血汤、紫朱软膏等调节肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)、白细胞介素（IL）-1、IL-6、IL-10等炎症因子,抑制创面炎症。(2)白芷、丹酚酸B、四效散、壮药拔毒生肌膏等调节血管内皮生长因子（VEGF）、血小板衍生生长因子（PDGF）、转化生长因子（TGF）、表皮生长因子（EGF）等生长因子,促进创面胶原沉积及血管新生。(3)芍药苷、隐丹参酮、蜂毒、回阳生肌汤等调节CXC趋化因子配体（CXCL）1、CXCL2、CC趋化因子配体（CCL）2、CCL3、基质细胞衍生...     

Sex-Dependent Effects of 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone on Metabolic Health Are Associated with Alterations in the Host Gut Microbiome

7,8-Dihydroxyflavone (DHF) is a naturally occurring flavonoid that has been reported to protect against a variety of pathologies. Chronic administration of DHF prevents high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity in female, but not male, mice. However, the mechanisms underlying this sexual dimorphism have not been elucidated. We have discovered that oral DHF supplementation significantly attenuates fat mass, hepatic lipid accumulation, and adipose tissue inflammation in female mice. In contrast, male mice were not protected from adiposity, and had a paradoxical worsening of hepatic lipid accumulation and adipose tissue inflammation upon DHF supplementation. Consistent with these sexually dimorphic effects on body weight and metabolic health, 7,8-DHF induced early and stable remodeling of the female intestinal microbiome. DHF supplementation significantly increased gut microbial diversity, and suppressed potentially detrimental bacteria, particularly Desulfovibrionaceae, which are pro-inflammatory and positively associated with obesity and inflammation. Changes in the female gut microbiome preceded alterations in body weights, and in silico analyses indicated that these early microbial changes were highly predictive of subsequent weight gain in female mice. While some alterations in the intestinal microbiome were also observed in male DHF-supplemented mice, these changes were distinct from those in females and, importantly, were not predictive of subsequent body weight changes in male animals. The temporality of microbial changes preceding alterations in body weight in female mice suggests a role for the gut microbiome in mediating the sexually dimorphic effects of DHF on body weight. Given the significant clinical interest in this flavonoid across a wide range of pathologies, further elucidation of these sexually dimorphic effects will aid the development of effective clinical therapies.     

周围型肺癌的螺旋CT增强扫描

目的 :评价螺旋CT增强薄层扫描对周围型肺癌的诊断价值。方法 :2 7例周围型肺癌 ,对结节进行薄层扫描 ,然后以 3 5ml/s肘静脉注射碘对比剂 10 0ml后 40s、2min、5min、8min于相同几个中心层面进行增强扫描。分析结节的强化类型 ,描绘结节的时间 -密度曲线 ,计算结节的最大增强CT值。结果 :根据病灶的强化特点 ,我们将周围型肺癌强化类型分为二型 ,即均匀强化型和不均匀强化型。本组 2 7例肺癌 ,其中 17例 (6 3 % )在注射对比剂后 2min达到高峰 ,另外 10例 (37% )在注射对比剂后 5min达到峰值。本组病例中肺癌最大强化CT值 2 2～ 5 5HU(2 5 / 2 7) ,平均为 (4 1 8± 14 5 )HU。结论 :螺旋CT增强薄层扫描能准确判断病灶增强程度及方式 ,对提高周围型肺癌的诊断准确率有较大帮助。

海南省山区霍乱流行病学分析

目的 为了解海南省山区的霍乱流行特点,为今后更好地预防、控制山区的霍乱流行提供理论依据。方法 采用统一制定的霍乱个案调查表和流行病学调查表进行调查,然后做统计分析。结果 1994～1998年,海南省山区发生6起食物型霍乱爆发疫情,发病191例,罹患率13．12％,病死6例,病死率3．14％。患者皆为黎族居民,各年龄组均有发病,以20～40岁组的青壮年所占比例最高,为67．54％。男性患者(65．97％)明显多于女性(34．03％)。疫情波及4个县(市)、8个乡(镇)、40个自然村。轻型病例仍然占大多数(62．30％)。对82株菌株的鉴定结果全部为小川lb型,与该省沿海地区自1994年后以小川1b型为优势流行株相一致。结论 导致这6起霍乱爆发的最主要原因是丧事聚餐,可疑食物均来自某市的海鱼。
