Influence of Qingdai Compound Capsule on the expression of c-myc in psoriatic keratinocytes) on the expression of c-myc in psoriatic keratinocytes

In this immunohistochemical study, the authors detected the expression of c-myc in keratinocytes (ECK) from 30 psoriatics before and after Qingdai Compound Capsule (QDCC) treatment and 12 normal subjects for control. The results showed that the ECK of patients before treatment was significantly higher than that in the normal control group, and its level was correlated with histopathological changes of affected skin. After treatment the ECK was normalized. It is believed that QDCC could decrease the ECK in psoriatics and this effect was probably mediated by inhibiting c-myc expression. This study provided an experimental evidence for the application of QDCC in treating psoriasis.     

密闭液性环境干燥环境下供皮区创面愈合的比较研究

目的比较研究密闭液性环境和干燥环境下供皮区创面的愈合过程. 方法 1996年7月～1997年3月以13例成人断层供皮区创面为研究对象,其中男9例,女4例,年龄20～50岁,创面面积(100～400) cm2,取皮深度中厚,约0.44 mm.同一个创面分为实验组(密闭液性环境)和对照组(干燥环境),采用自身对照法.应用大体、组织学及电镜观察等方法进行观察. 结果密闭液性环境下创面愈合较快,创面组织中成纤维细胞较早活跃、且持续时间较长,再血管化和再上皮化均较早和较快发生. 结论密闭液性环境下创面愈合较快,与组织修复细胞较为活跃、再血管化和再上皮化较快发生有关.     

中国医改履历:续写争议

有学者认为，所谓改革，就是在持续的摸索和尝试中不断调整步伐、不断自我修正的过程。医疗卫生领域的改革实践同样如此。     

An approach to haemorrhoids

OBJECTIVE: Many patients with haemorrhoids are investigated because of the fear of missing colorectal cancer (CRC). The aim of this study was to determine whether a primarily clinical approach regarding the need for investigation was safe and did not miss patients with CRC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data was collected prospectively on 589 consecutive patients with the principle diagnosis of haemorrhoids at first clinic visit. All had clinical assessment including rigid sigmoidoscopy and were treated by phenol injection or banding. They were categorized for (1) no review unless symptoms persisted -'One Stop SOS' (2) outpatient review or (3) investigation. To check for the development of CRC they were contacted by postal questionnaire or telephone interview with a minimum of one year from diagnosis and treatment. All 589 patients were cross-referenced with the Pathology database and the Hospital Information Services System. RESULTS: Four hundred and sixty-nine (80%) answered the questionnaire; 352 patients (60% of the total group) fell in the 'one stop SOS' outpatient category; 95 (16%) patients were followed up to review response to treatment for large haemorrhoids; 105 (18%) were investigated with barium enema (12%), flexible sigmoidoscopy (4%), colonoscopy (1%) and miscellaneous (1%); 37 (6%) patients were either given a haemorrhoidectomy date or referred on with a different diagnosis. No patients selected for 'one-stop' treatment developed CRC. Five (0.8%) patients were diagnosed with CRC after appropriate investigation was instituted for suspicious symptoms. One patient with distal transverse colon cancer had a delayed diagnosis as she was investigated initially by flexible sigmoidoscopy. CONCLUSION: Most patients with the primary diagnosis of symptomatic haemorrhoids do not need investigation.     

The development of food allergy after liver transplantation.

The acquisition of new food allergy after orthotopic liver transplantation is now a well described phenomenon, mainly reported in children. The etiology of this phenomenon is at present unclear, but has been ascribed by some to tacrolimus treatment. Here we report a case of liver transplant acquired food allergy (LTAFA) in a child who received a split liver graft. The case is remarkable for the absence of new food allergy in the adult recipient of the same graft. This suggests that host-specific factors play an important role in the development of food allergy after liver transplantation, and emphasizes the predisposition that children have toward this phenomenon. Possible mechanisms underlying the development of food allergy after liver transplantation are discussed. In conclusion, tacrolimus treatment alone cannot account for LTAFA. Host factors such as the maturity of immune regulatory mechanisms are likely to play a critical role in the development of new food allergy after a liver transplant.     

应用抗凝剂的心脏瓣膜置换患者接受胆道手术的术前处理

目的总结瓣膜置换患者行胆道手术的术前用药方法。方法对38例瓣膜置换后在服用华法令过程中因胆道疾病需行择期手术治疗的患者随机分为2组,肝功能正常组(A组)23例、肝功能不正常组(B组)15例均于术前3d停服华法令,B组术前12h肌注VitK110mg。术前无应用华法令历史的患者115例做为对照组。结果38例患者停药2d后A组血浆凝血酶原时间与对照组差异无显著意义,B组于术前12h肌注VitK110mg后,血浆凝血酶原时间与对照组相比差异也无显著性意义。结论瓣膜置换患者在抗凝期间行胆道手术,只要准备充分,围手术期是安全的。
