不同膳食特点地区中老年人血红蛋白及其与膳食营养的关系

测定分析不同膳食特点地区975例年龄45～74岁中老年人的血红蛋白及其与膳食营养素的关系。结果牧民及城市居民贫血率低，北京及新疆托里分别为7.6％和4.6％。男性比女性血红蛋白高，血红蛋白随年龄增加而降低。相关分析结果血红蛋白与膳食热能、蛋白质、动物蛋白质与总蛋白质比值呈显著正相关。结果说明血红蛋白可用于中老年人营养状态监测。     

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     

The antibacterial component from Cinnamomi Cortex against a cariogenic bacteriumStreptococcus mutans OMZ 176

The methanol extract of Cinnamomi Cortex showed antibacterial action against cariogenic bacterium,Streptococcus mutans OMZ 176. The active principle of the extract was identified to betrans-cinnamaldehyde, which was bactericidal in the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 100 μg/ml againt the strain. From the results of antibacterial activity of cinnamaldehyde and its derivatives, the acrolein group in the cinnamal-dehyde was elucidated to be an essential element for the activity.     

Indwelling epidural catheters for pain control in gynecologic cancer patients

Seven patients with severe pain caused by an advanced, incurable gynecologic malignancy were treated with an indwelling epidural catheter connected to an implantable subcutaneous port through which morphine was infused. There were few major complications associated with insertion or maintenance of the system. The average usage was 60 days, although the system functioned continuously for 6 months in one patient. Pain distribution in these women ranged from the upper abdomen to the lower extremities. All patients, including one with liver metastases, reported good to excellent pain control with the epidural narcotics. Two subjects with upper abdominal pain occasionally required supplemental oral oxycodone, but the other five patients had adequate pain relief with the epidural system alone. The indwelling epidural system provides excellent analgesia for patients with advanced, incurable gynecologic cancer.     

Selective inactivation of viruses in the presence of human platelets: UV sensitization with psoralen derivatives.

Inactivation of viruses in blood products requires that the method employed display selectivity in its action for viral elements while not affecting the biological entity of interest. Several methods have been developed for the treatment of human plasma or products derived from human plasma. An effective technique for the treatment of the cellular components of blood has been lacking, in part due to the inability to develop agents capable of selectively targeting viral agents in the milieu of cellular material. In this paper, we examine the behavior of a group of viral sensitizers designed to be added to cellular samples and be activated upon exposure to UVA light. Upon activation, these agents are capable of disrupting nucleic acids of the virus in a manner that renders them inactive for proliferation. The selectivity observed in this inactivation is determined by the chemical structure of the sensitizer, which can be varied to increase viral killing capacity while diminishing collateral damage to cellular and protein constituents.
