Chondronecrosis induced in rhesus monkeys fed with grains and water of Kaschin-Beck's disease endemic area]

Immature Rhesus monkeys were fed with grains and/or water of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) endemic area for 6 or 18 months. Multifocal and zonal chondronecrosis and a series of secondary reactions following necrosis were found in articular cartilage and growth plate in most of the monkeys. These changes are very similar to the characteristics of human KBD. The results suggest that growing Rhesus monkey should be the susceptible animal for reproduction of chondronecrosis model of KBD and the articular cartilage of greater trochanter proximal to femur is a portion predisposing to cartilage lesions. The experiment also indicated that pathogenic factor resulting in chondronecrosis is still remaining in water and grains of endemic area, though the area is no longer actively endemic for KBD.     

非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病患者肺功能检查的初步探讨

对２５例非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病（ＮＩＤＤＭ）患者及２４例正常人进行全套肺功能检查，并作对比分析，结果表明：ＮＩＤＤＭ组比正常对照组Ｖ２５／ＨＴ减低。差异有高度显著性（Ｐ＜０．０１）；ＤＬＣＯ减低差异有显著性（Ｐ＜０．０５），并认为ＮＩＤＤＭ患者小气道功能、弥散功能减低与糖代谢紊乱，致机体抵抗力降低、免疫功能下降，并与肺胞毛细血管基底膜增厚有关。检查ＮＩＤＤＭ患者小气道功能和肺泡弥散功能，具有一定临床意义。

SD大鼠肺中降钙素基因相关肽的分布及缺氧对其含量的影响

本研究用免疫细胞化学方法(ABC法)观察了降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)在SD大鼠肺中的分布,缺氧对肺中神经内分泌细胞内CGRP含餐的影响。结果表明:含CGRP的神经纤维分布在肺血管平滑肌层中及其周围、气管-支气管树的粘膜下层;含CGRP的神经内分泌细胞位于气管一支气管树的上皮层、粘液腺中和肺实质内。缺氧不引起火鼠肺的神经内分泌细胞数目改变,但可使这些细胞内的CGRP含量增加。

Patient satisfaction with and recommendation of a hospital: effects of interpersonal and technical aspects of hospital care.

OBJECTIVES: To examine patient satisfaction with and recommendation of a hospital, with a special focus on the correlation of these measures to patient ratings of interpersonal and technical performance of the hospital. DESIGN: Telephone survey of patients with four specific conditions after their discharge from hospitals. SETTING: Accredited district teaching hospitals and above, nationwide in Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 4945 patients from 126 hospitals diagnosed with or undergoing procedures related to stroke, diabetes mellitus, Caesarean section, or appendectomy were interviewed by telephone. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Overall patient satisfaction and recommendation were measured by single-item questions. Interpersonal skills were measured by three items: doctors' explanation, attitude, and caring. Technical skills were measured by another three items: hospital equipment, clinical competence, and outcome of treatment. RESULTS: Interpersonal skills were as influential or more influential than clinical competence on patient satisfaction for three of the four disease categories. In contrast, technical competence was a more influential predictor for recommendation for patients in all four disease categories. CONCLUSION: The preliminary results imply that a hospital with high percentage of patient satisfaction does not necessarily receive a high level of recommendation. This finding provides new insights for researchers and for hospital managers who devote resources exclusively for achieving the highest possible levels of patient satisfaction.     

生长抑素受体亚型在人鼻咽癌细胞株CNE2中表达

背景与目的：生长抑素受体（somatostatin receptor SSTR）在许多肿瘤组织均有表达，为生长抑素类似物如奥曲肽用于这些肿瘤的治疗提供了生物学基础，但对生长抑素受体在鼻咽癌中表达情况的研究甚少。本研究旨在了解生长抑素受体基因在鼻咽癌细胞中的表达情况，为生长抑素类似物用于鼻咽癌治疗的进一步研究提供试验基础。方法：采用RT—PCR法和SP免疫组化法联合检测体外培养的人鼻咽癌细胞株CNE2的SSTRs表达，并对PCR mRNA产物测序以鉴定结果。结果：RT—PCR提示人鼻咽癌细胞株CNE2分别表达生长抑素受体亚型SSTR1、SSTR2、SSTR4；免疫组化结果：人鼻咽癌细胞株CNE2表达SSTR1、SSTR2A为强阳性（〉60％），表达SSTR4为弱阳性、SSTR2介于两者之间、SSTR3和SSTR5则无表达。结论：我们的研究证实人鼻咽癌细胞株CNE2有多种生长抑素受体亚型基因表达，且以表达SSTR1、SSTR2较多。     

PPARδ基因多态与有氧能力及训练敏感性的关联研究

目的探讨过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体δ(PPARδ)基因第四外显子的单核苷酸多态(C294T)是否与有氧运动能力及训练敏感性相关联。方法对102名中国北方地区汉族男性青年进行为期18周的耐力训练(每次5000米、每周3次)。强度以个体通气无氧阈(VT)对应的心率(HRVT)为标准,前10周采用95%通气无氧阈对应的心率(HRVT±3),后8周采用105%通气无氧阈对应的心率(HRVT±3)。递增负荷运动实验测定受试者训练前后VO2max及相关指标和跑节省化时的心率(HR)、通气量(VE)和摄氧量(VO2)。采用限制性片断长度多态(PCR-RFLP)法测定PPARδ基因C294T位点。结果三种基因型的分布频率分别为CC基因型9人(0.09)、CT基因型37人(0.36)和TT基因型56人(0.55),符合Hardy-Weinberg平衡。按基因型分组后,CC基因型训练前的VO2max相对值显著性高于CT基因型和TT基因型(P<0.05);携带不同基因型群体的VO2max、跑节省化测试中的各项指标的变化率无显著性差异(P>0.05)。结论PPARδ基因第四外显子的单核苷酸C294T多态与VO2max相对值的初始值相关联,但与有氧耐力训练效果不关联。
