Inhibition of N-nitrosodiethylamine- and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone-induced tumorigenesis in A/J mice by green tea and black tea.

The effect of p.o. administration of tea on nitrosamine-induced carcinogenesis was investigated. Female A/J mice were given N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) (10 mg/kg) p.o. once a week for 8 weeks and were killed 16 weeks after the last dose. More than 90% of the mice had forestomach and lung tumors. The animals had an average of 8.3 forestomach and 2.5 lung tumors/mouse. With 0.63 or 1.25% green tea infusion (12.5 g green tea leaves brewed with 1 liter of boiling water) as the sole source of drinking water for the entire experimental period, the pulmonary tumor incidence was decreased by 18 or 44%, and the tumor multiplicity was reduced by 36 or 60%, respectively. The treatments also decreased the forestomach tumor incidence by 18 or 26% and tumor multiplicity by 59 or 63%, respectively. Administration of 0.63 or 1.25% green tea infusion, either during the NDEA treatment period only or starting 1 week after the completion of NDEA treatment, also decreased the pulmonary tumor incidence and multiplicity and the forestomach tumor multiplicity. The inhibitory effects of green tea infusion were also observed in a similar experiment using a higher dosage of NDEA (20 mg/kg). Treatment of female A/J mice with a single dose (103 mg/kg) of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) resulted in the formation of pulmonary adenomas in almost all of the animals with an average of 9.3 tumors/mouse after 16 weeks. When 0.6% decaffeinated green tea or black tea extract was given during the NNK-treatment period, tumor multiplicity was reduced by 67 or 65%, respectively. When the tea extract was given after the NNK-treatment period until the end of the experiment, 0.6% green tea extract decreased the tumor incidence and multiplicity by 30 and 85%, respectively. In this protocol, 0.6% black tea extract reduced tumor multiplicity by about 63% but did not significantly affect the tumor incidence. The results clearly demonstrated an inhibitory action of green tea and black tea on nitrosamine-induced tumorigenesis.     

Buccal mucosal graft for urethral reconstruction.

Urethral reconstruction with graft substances, such as skin and bladder mucosa, has been previously used when primary anastomosis cannot be achieved. However, stricture and meatal prolapse are associated with these grafts. We report the use of buccal mucosa for the reconstruction of urethral defects in 3 patients. One patient with failed operation for hypospadias received tube buccal mucosal graft for urethral replacement. Two patients with urethral necrosis and stricture received onlay buccal mucosal graft. All patients were disease-free during follow-up (range, 12 to 49 months; mean, 36 months). One patient had a pinhole fistula that was successfully managed with simple repair. This technique appears to be useful for urethral reconstruction when a local graft is not available, even in patients with complicated conditions.     

富氧对海拔3700m高原人体运动心力储备的影响

目的　探讨富氧对高原人体运动心力储备方面的影响。方法　对海拔 3 70 0m高原的 1 2名健康青年富氧 (氧浓度为 2 4%～ 2 5 %)前后分别进行踏阶运动 ,采用心力监护仪采集和记录心动周期和心力信息 ,把完成规定运动量运动后第一心音 (S1 )幅值对安静时S1 幅值增加的相应倍数评估心肌收缩能力储备指数 (CCRI) ;利用舒张期和收缩期时限数据计算舒张期 /收缩期比值 (D/S比 )。结果　运动后较安静时HR ,D/S ,S1 幅值均增高 ,有非常显著性差异 (P <0 .0 1 ) ;富氧运动较未富氧运动CCRI,D/S ,S1 幅值增高 ,有显著性差异 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,HR无统计学意义 (P >0 .0 5 )。结论　高原低氧环境下心脏储备主要是心肌收缩能力储备而不是心率储备。富氧对增强机体心力储备具有重要作用     

胶质细胞瘤复发前后Cyclin D1和P16的表达

目的　探讨CyclinD1,P16在胶质瘤复发前后表达改变及其意义。方法　采用免疫组织化学LsABC法对 4 5例复发胶质瘤瘤组织、瘤旁脑组织和 10例正常脑组织CyclinD1,P16蛋白表达进行检测 ,统计分析CyclinD1,P16表达水平与胶质瘤分级、肿瘤复发的关系。结果　正常脑组织 ,瘤旁脑组织和胶质瘤组织CyclinD1表达依次升高 ,而P16的表达依次下降 ;肿瘤复发CyclinD1表达增强 ,P16的表达减弱。结论　CyclinD1与P16的表达与胶质瘤恶性进程和复发密切相关。     

超声乳化白内障摘除手术中小瞳孔的处理

目的探讨小瞳孔白内障的手术方法、效果、并发症及其处理.方法本组对近5年来完成的188例由于炎症、抗青光眼手术以后、外伤、糖尿病等引起的小瞳孔白内障病人进行回顾性分析.本组病人均采用超声乳化摘除法,手术中没有用辅助的扩瞳器,采用的是人工机械性扩大瞳孔,超声乳化的技巧是弹性法和劈裂法.结果手术后病人的瞳孔都有不同程度的扩大,但一般都不大于5mm且成规则状.有半数病人有不同程度的手术后角膜水肿,1周后自行恢复;极个别的病人角膜水肿恢复时间比较长,但未发现角膜失代偿.还有少数病人有后囊破裂,悬韧带断裂,玻璃体脱出.结论对于有经验的医师超声乳化手术在小瞳孔白内障的处理是安全有效的,可以获得如同正常瞳孔的白内障相同的效果.

Norepinephrine transporter and α2c adrenoceptor allelic variants and personality factors

It has been suggested that reward dependence, as measured by the Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ), is related to central noradrenergic activity, a proposition supported by two studies of urinary norepinephrine metabolite. In the current investigation, 190 normal young Han Chinese were examined, with genetic polymorphisms determined for the norepinephrine transporter (1287G/A) and the α_2c‐adrenoceptor (Del322–325) to test the association with TPQ personality traits. No significant association was demonstrated for these two polymorphisms and any of the TPQ personality‐factor scores, including reward dependence and its subscales. Our negative findings suggest that the investigated polymorphisms of the norepinephrine transporter and the α_2c adrenoceptor do not play a major role in the reward‐dependence personality trait as assessed by TPQ. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
