五种中药灭阴道毛滴虫体外试验初步研究

本文对５种中药进行了杀灭阴道毛滴虫体外实验的初步研究。结果表明：白头翁、黄柏和青蒿灭虫效果最好，蛇床子和苦参亦有一定的作用。为进一步开发中药防治阴道毛滴虫提供了研究基础资料。     

Surgery for pre-macular fibrosis

We review 12 consecutive cases of pre-macular fibrosis (PMF) treated by vitreous surgical techniques. The causes of PMF included retinal detachment surgery in four patients, idiopathic in three patients, laser treatment in three patients, pars planitis in one patient and diabetic retinopathy in one patient. The membrane was successfully removed in all the patients. One patient developed a retinal detachment that was repaired successfully. All patients had improved visual acuity (VA) of two Snellen lines or more and six patients achieved VA of 6/12 or better. Patients with PMF following retinal detachment had poorer final VA.     

Obstructive jaundice secondary to benign hepatic cyst

A case of hepatic cyst causing obstructive jaundice is presented. Following percutaneous aspiration of the cyst, the jaundice was relieved. Modern interventional radiologic techniques can provide prompt diagnosis and treatment, thus avoiding major surgery and prolonged hospitalization.     

Receptors for peanut agglutinin (Arachus hypogea) in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia: possible clinical significance

The presence of lymphocyte receptors for peanut agglutinin in significant numbers (greater than 15%) was identified on leukemic cells from T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) (3/4), B-cell ALL (B- ALL) (2/4), null cell ALL (8/17), and on normal fetal thymic lymphocytes but not on normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Peanut agglutinin (PNA) binding was blocked specifically on leukemia lymphoblasts and thymic lymphocytes by the addition of galactose to the medium. When all immunologic subgroups of ALL are combined, preliminary data suggest that of the 13 ALL patients having greater than 15% PNA- positive lymphoblasts, 8 had relapsed, whereas none of the 12 ALL patients with less than 15% PNA-positive cells have recurrent disease at this time. It is likely that analysis of PNA receptors on ALL lymphoblasts may be a useful adjunct to the existing clinical and immunologic prognostic indicators.
