New posture equilibrometer for the diagnosis of vestibular disease

Summary The vestibulospinal level of vestibular function is commonly neglected in the evaluation of vertiginous patients. We have now developed a new posture equilibrometer. A transducer is placed on the head of the subject being tested. With this meter we can record body swaying, X (left-right) and Y (fore-aft) components of angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular acceleration. A detailed analysis of the data can be made by having patients keep their eyes either open or closed during the Romberg test. The head is turned left or right in this test, while the eyes are opened and closed in the Mann test. The posture equilibrometer has enabled us to evaluate more precisely vestibulospinal function and sensory interactions. Offprint request to: N. C. Zhong     

甲氟哌酸药代动力学研究

本文报道国产甲氟哌酸片剂的人体药代动力学研究结果。血、尿药物浓度用微生物打孔法测定。健康志愿者口服甲氟哌酸400mg片剂后,体内药物转运过程符合一室开放模型。甲氟哌酸的血药浓度达峰时间、峰浓度为1.27小时和4.76μg/ml。T_(1/2)Ka和T_(1/2)Ke分别为0.22和10.40小时。研究结果表明,甲氟哌酸吸收快,达峰迅速,血清峰浓度有所提高,消除半衰期长,体内分布广泛,值得在临床推广使用。

Ag—NOR计数在区分良恶性甲状腺病变中的意义

随机选择经长期随访证实的滤泡性甲状腺癌和腺瘤各10例,正常甲状腺组织5例作为对照。按Ploton的染色方法和Crocker推荐的计数方法分别计算三组每例各50个细胞的Ag-NOR嗜银颗粒平均数,再算出三组各自的AgNOR均数,经统计学检验三者有极显著性差异。可望成为甲状腺滤泡性肿瘤良恶鉴别的一项辅助指标。     

Clinical diagnosis of trauma from occlusion and its relation with severity of periodontitis

The purpose of the present study was to determine the reliability of several selected signs of trauma from occlusion and their relations with severity of periodontitis. 32 moderate to advanced chronic periodontitis patients participated in the study. All teeth present were evaluated for various abnormal occlusal contacts, signs of trauma from occlusion, and the severity of periodontitis. Standardized periapical radiographs were also taken for each tooth. The results demonstrated that: (1) no significant difference occurred in probing pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (AL), or percentage of alveolar bone height (BH) between teeth with and without various abnormal occlusal contacts, i.e., premature contacts in centric relation occlusion, non-working contacts in lateral excursions, premature contacts of anterior teeth or posterior protrusive tooth contacts; (2) teeth with either significant mobility, functional mobility, or radiographically widened periodontal ligament space (PDLS) had deeper PD, more AL and lower BH than teeth without these signs, while teeth with pronounced wear or radiographically thickened lamina dura had less AL than teeth without these findings; (3) 2 combined indices, i.e., the trauma from occlusion index (TOI) and the adaptability index (AI), were proposed for the identification of occlusal trauma and the response of periodontium to excessive biting forces in heavy function, respectively; TOI-positive teeth exhibit deeper PD, more AL and less osseous support than TOI-negative teeth; however, AI-positive teeth had less AL and more osseous support than AI-negative teeth; (4) with identical attachment level, TOI-positive teeth had less osseous support than TOI-negative teeth while the magnitude of difference became greater with an increase of attachment loss.     

VEGF和p53在胰腺癌中的表达及意义

目的　探讨胰腺癌组织中血管内皮生长因子 (VEGF)及p5 3蛋白的表达及其临床病理意义。方法　采用SP免疫组织化学方法 ,对 46例胰腺癌组织中VEGF及 p5 3蛋白的表达进行检测。结果　VEGF与 p5 3表达率分别为 65 .2 %和 5 8.7%。p5 3表达与VEGF表达呈明显正相关(P <0 .0 5 )。VEGF表达与胰腺癌淋巴结转移 (P <0 .0 5 )和远处转移 (P <0 .0 1)显著相关 ,而与肿瘤大小 ,病理学分级无关 ,p5 3表达与胰腺癌远处转移 (P <0 .0 5 )显著相关 ,而与肿瘤大小 ,病理学分级及淋巴结转移无关。结论　在胰腺癌中 ,VEGF表达与 p5 3蛋白的表达呈正相关 ,在胰腺癌的转移中起重要作用     

神经导航辅助显微手术治疗脑功能区肿瘤

目的探讨神经导航系统辅助下脑重要功能区肿瘤显微手术的治疗效果和应用价值。方法1999年12月～2002年6月应用StealthStation神经导航系统辅助切除邻近脑重要功能区肿瘤10例,对神经导航系统术中应用的优越性、精确性等进行分析。结果本组平均注册误差为(2.8±0.9)mm,肿瘤和重要解剖功能结构定位准确,肿瘤全切除率77.8%。术后神经功能未受明显影响,无手术并发症及死亡。结论神经导航系统对于切除邻近脑重要功能区肿瘤具有定位准确,动态示踪和实时导航,侵袭性小,安全、可靠等特点,有助于提高肿瘤全切率及降低手术并发症。     

运动性肥大心肌活细胞胞浆游离Ca2+动态变化的激光共聚焦研究以及局部IGF-Ⅰ和AngⅡ的变化
