004Topical Zinc Oxide for Open Pilonidal Wounds

Extended healing time and lack of documented effective treatments of sacrococcygeal pilonidal disease create substantial problems. Locally applied zinc oxide has been reported to promote wound healing. We have compared topical zinc oxide (3%) with placebo meshes for pilonidal wounds healing by secondary intention in a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled multicenter trial. Sixty‐four consecutive patients, 53 males, aged between 18 and 60 years (median 26 years) with excised pilonidal wounds were centrally randomized to local zinc oxide (30 mg/g, n = 33) or to placebo (n = 31) mesh treatment. Patients were followed with strict recording of beneficial and harmful effects. The median healing times were 54 days (42–71 days, interquartile range, n = 33) for the zinc group and 62 days (55–82 days, n = 31) for the placebo group. This difference was not statistically different (p = 0.32). Based on Cox regression analysis initial wound volume influenced healing negatively (p = 0.016) while smoking (p = 0.011) was associated with faster wound healing. Significantly (p < 0.01) more placebo (n = 12) than zinc oxide‐treated patients (n = 3) needed antibiotics postoperatively. Although topical zinc oxide increased (p < 0.001) wound fluid zinc levels (1830 ± 405 μM, mean ± SEM) compared with placebo (3.1 ± 1.6 μM) serum‐zinc levels did not differ significantly between the zinc (13.5 ± 0.4 μM) and placebo (12.8 ± 0.4 μm) groups on postoperative day 7. No adverse events were recorded. Topical zinc oxide treatment did not accelerate time to closure of open pilonidal wounds but was associated with reduced antibiotic usage.     

中国急性心肌梗塞的疾病经济负担

主要通过对急性心肌梗塞疾病经济负担的研究，总体描述进行二线预防的重要性。资料主要来源于中文文献检索、政府统计报表。主要利用直接医疗费用来计算疾病经济负担，而未考虑直接非医疗费用和间接费用。中日急性心肌梗塞的发病率约为45／10万。55／10万。城市高于农村，男性高于女性。在2000年，急性心肌梗塞的死亡率在城市为32．39／10万，农村为17．99／10万，其死亡率随年龄增长而相应增长。与发病率一样，城市高于农村，男性高于女性。25岁以上人群因急性心肌梗塞而损失的DALY在2000年为3．57DALYs／千人口。怎性心肌梗塞的直接医疗费用在国家卫生部部属医院为28257元／例，省级医院为8663元／例，县级医院为5447无／例。测算2000年急性心肌梗塞的疾病经济负担为13亿元。19亿元。但由于只有10．6％的急性心肌梗塞病人得到临床床治疗，因此，本测算结果可能低估了在中国实际发生的疾病经济负担。     

全雄激素阻断治疗晚期前列腺癌

为了评价全雄激素阻断治疗晚期前列腺癌的疗效，采用双侧睾丸切除、Ｆｌｕｔａｍｉｄｅ和Ｆｉｎａｓｔｅｒｉｄ联合治疗Ｄ２期前列腺癌病人５例。随访１５～２０个月，结果ＰＳＡ均正常，前列腺体积缩小６１．２％～６９．３％，有显著性差异（Ｐ＜０．０１），骨转移灶缩小、部分消失，积水肾脏完全恢复正常，所有病人治疗后全部有效。表明全雄激素阻断对晚期前列腺癌有良好的治疗效果。提出在三个层次上阻断雄激素治疗晚期前列腺癌的策略。     

肝门胆管癌的外科治疗60例临床分析

肝门胆管癌近年有增多趋势,本文报告我院1975年～1985年间肝门胆管癌60例,占全部肝外胆管癌82例之73.1％,占同期全部胆道手术3626例之1.65％。临床表现主要有三型:1)阻塞性黄疸29例,其中25例曾误诊为肝炎;2)急性胆管炎12例;3)长期胆道疾病14例,其他5例。本组行B超检查19例,ERCP10例,PTC39例。最后诊断根据PTC和/或ERCP,剖腹术及病理检查结果。 56例施行了手术治疗,仅6例施行肿瘤连同半肝切除,姑息性肝胆管内引流15例,外引流23例,其他方法12例。平均存活时间:6例切除组24.5月,48例姑息手术组8.7月,未手术的4例为5月。文中强调早期诊断,凡40岁以上出现阻塞性黄疸或“传染性肝炎”均须警惕胆管癌,进行B超,CT,ERCP或PTC检查,文中强调PTC是诊断本病重要手段,可选择进行右左肝管PTC。本病应争取手术切除,不能切除者行肝胆管内引流或外引流,二者疗效无明显差别。

Role of endothelin in the pathogenesis of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive and 2 kidneys 1 clip rats.

The plasma endothelin (ET) level in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and 2K1C hypertension animal models and its vasoconstrictive effect on renal and tail arteries were studied. The results demonstrated that there was no difference in plasma ET level between the hypertensive groups SHR, 2K1C, normotensive control groups Wistar Kyot (WKY) and Sprague Dawley (SD), while the vasoconstrictive effect of ET in SHR was more dominant than in WKY. The EC50 of the renal and tail arteries in SHR (0.8912 +/- 0.1662 x 10(-8) M, 0.6103 +/- 0.0878 x 10(-8) M) was apparently lower than that in WKY (1.77 +/- 0.2991 x 10(-8) M, 1.2267 +/- 0.2502 x 10(-8) M, P less than 0.05), but no difference was found in 2K1C and SD rats. The four groups of animals exhibited no difference of such effects as response to norepine-phrine (NA). The findings suggested that the increased arteriole sensitivity to ET be an important factor in the pathogenesis of hypertension in SHR.

     

572例近视眼患者中央角膜厚度测量报告

本文作者在572例(1144只眼)近视眼患者拟行角膜放射状切开(RK)手术前,对角膜不同部位厚度进行了测量,对其值作统计学处理,均值及标准差为0.527±0.037mm,标准误为0.002,说明我国95％的近视眼患者中央角膜厚度范围为0.455—0.600mm。提示我国成人各年龄组左、右眼角膜厚度与左、右眼屈光度、性别、眼别无关。强调RK手术前对角膜厚度测量的重要性,但手术预后优劣为多因素所致。     

经内镜胆管引流术在肝门部恶性胆管梗阻中的应用及其评价

肝门部恶性肿瘤手术切除率极低，临床处理十分棘手。作者采用内镜胆管引流术治疗此类肿瘤２８８例次（肝门部胆管癌１８４例、胆囊癌２３例、肝细胞癌侵犯肝门部胆管４７例、其他转移性肿瘤３４例），其中行内镜鼻胆管引流１６２例次、塑料内置管引流８０例次、放置可膨式金属胆道支架４６例、４例患者接受同期双内置管引流。引流总有效率为６７．０％，其中效果满意者４３．１％；４０例患者术后１个月内发生胆管炎，发生率为１３．８％，３例死亡；长期随访病例的平均存活期５．３个月。我们观察到治疗的效果与Ｂｉｓｍｕｔｈ分型有密切关系，如果全肝４０％以上的胆系得到引流，黄疸有望消退；左、右两侧胆管同时引流可扩大引流范围，提高疗效；应合理选择三种内镜胆管引流方法并适时灵活转换才能获得满意的疗效。结论：对于肝门部肿瘤，内镜胆管引流术是一种安全有效的治疗手段，可作为首选的姑息性治疗。     

镍作业工人细胞免疫功能、血清硒和过氧化脂质含量的变化

９６名镍作业工人测定结果：非特异酯酶阳性细胞百分率（ＡＮＡＥ＋％）为７６．８％±８．０％，Ｔ细胞亚群ＣＤ２、ＣＤ４、ＣＤ８阳性细胞百分率（ＣＤ＋２％、ＣＤ＋４％、ＣＤ＋８％）及ＣＤ＋４／ＣＤ＋８比值分别为６５．６％±１０．５％、５６．３％±１２．１％、３４．３％±８．２％和１．７６±０．６；酵母多糖刺激的外周血多形核白细胞化学发光（ＰＭＮ－ＣＬ）本底和峰值分别为４８±２３和３０７３±６８４ＣＰＳ／１０６ＰＭＮ；血清硒和丙二醛含量分别为１．２２±０．２３和４．７６±０．８８μｍｏｌ／Ｌ。与非镍作业的地区对照组比较，Ｔ细胞ＣＤ＋８％增高，ＣＤ＋４／ＣＤ＋８比值下降，化学发光的本底值降低，峰值增加，血清Ｓｅ含量下降，丙二醛含量升高。分析镍作业工人工龄与后三项指标变化的关系，工龄大于２０年与小于１０年有统计学上明显差别。这些观察指标为镍作业人员医学观察增加新的监护指标提供依据。
