肾上腺组合性嗜铬细胞瘤四例报告及文献复习

Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics and management principles of com-posite pheochromoeytoma of adrenal gland (pheochromocytoma-ganglioneuroma). Methods Four cases of composite tumor of adrenal gland diagnosed pathologically were reviewed. All the cases were male, aged 37 to 62 years;three of them had the history of hypertension, one of them accompanied with paroxysmal palpitation, while one case was asymptomatic. Computerized tomography and ultra-sonography showed single tumor in adrenal, the diameter was about 2.5、3.8、6.3、15cm respectively. Two cases showed positive results in 131Ⅰ-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy. One case showed positive result in 99Tcm-hydrazinonicotinamide-3trysinoctreotide (HTOC) scintigraphy. Twenty-four hours urinary catecholamine examination revealed the average of norepinephrine, epi-nephrine and dopamine were (196.1±92.2)nmol/24 h, (26.6±8.9)nmol/24 h, (1957.9±913.5) nmol/24 h respectively. Two cases were at a little elevated level and the others with normal. All cases were managed with α-adrenergic receptor blocker preoperatively for 2-4 weeks. Results Tumor re-section was performed in all 4 cases, and 3 cases by retroperitoneal laparoscopy, one by open surgery. All 4 cases were diagnosed as composite pheochromocytoma of adrenal (Pheochromocytoma-gangli-oneuroma) by pathology. All patients had no evidence of recurrence or metastasis during follow-up from 15 to 38 months. Two of three cases with hypertension reverted to normotensive. Conclusions Composite pheochromocytoma of adrenal is rare, difficult to be diagnosed preoperatively. Except mild in eatecholamine secretion, which clinical manifestations are similar to pheochromocytoma. Pheochro-mocytoma-ganglioneuroma is no apparent tendency for aggressive behaviors, the results of surgical management are favorable.     

Do ethnicity and gender have an impact on pain thresholds in minor dermatologic procedures?

Background and Objectives: The perception of pain is a personal experience influenced by many factors, including genetic, ethnic and cultural issues. Understanding these perceptions is especially important in dermatologic patients undergoing minor surgical operations and who often differ in their pain response to surgical treatments. Little is known about how these differences affect the perception of experimental pain. The purpose of this study was to determine experimental pain perception differences in three distinct East Asian ethnic populations.
Methods: Pain thresholds were examined with a psychophysical computerized quantitative thermal sensory testing device (TSA 2001) in healthy volunteers recruited from three different Asian ethnic groups. Using the methods of limits, experimental pain perception threshold was measured on the forehead and volar aspect of the forearm in 49 healthy subjects. The measurements were then repeated after skin barrier perturbation with adhesive tape stripping of the stratum corneum. All three ethnic groups were analyzed separately with respect to age, gender educational level and skin type.
Results: A total of 20 Chinese, 14 Malay and 15 Indian subjects completed the study. Thermal pain thresholds were similar in all three ethnic groups before and after tape strippings. No significant differences were noted between genders.
Conclusions: Using quantitative sensory thermal testing, we demonstrated that no significant differences in pain occur between different races and genders.

硫喷妥钠治疗小儿难治性惊厥持续状态疗效观察

目的 探讨对小儿难治性惊厥持续状态的有效治疗方法。方法 对14例小儿难治性惊厥持续状态采用硫喷妥钠治疗并观察疗效。结果 硫喷妥钠治疗有效率为100％，1例出现呼吸抑制，3例于停药后复发。结论 硫喷妥钠对小儿难治性惊厥持续状态有明显疗效，但易发生呼吸抑制。惊止后应维持一段时间，以免复发。     

生长激素、肝细胞生长因子和烟酰胺对人胎胰岛细胞的增殖作用

目的研究生长激素(GH)，肝细胞生长因子(HGF)和烟酰胺(NIC)对体外培养的人胎胰岛细胞的增殖作用及其交互作用。方法采用La(2^7)正交设计法在体外培养的人胎胰岛细胞的各组中分别加入不同浓度及组合的GH，HGF和NIC，培养48h后，收集各孔细胞，DTZ染色，计数。结果GH，HGF和NIC均起主要作用，HGF和NIC的交互作用不可忽视，最佳的生长因子组合及适配浓度为GH(100ng／ml)HGF(25ng／ml)NIC(100mmol／L)。结论GH，HGF和NIC均能促进体外培养的胰岛细胞的增殖，且组合GH(100ng／ml)HGF(25ng／ml)NIC(100mmol／L)的作用最大。
