下腔静脉滤器置入与下肢深静脉血栓形成复发的相关性分析

目的探讨下腔静脉滤器(ICVF)置入与下肢深静脉血栓形成(DVT)治疗后复发的关系。方法回顾性分析2002年1月至2009年3月我院的确诊为DVT且符合入选标准的261例患者的临床资料。按照随访结果将患者分为复发组和未复发组,分别对可能引起复发的相关因素,如年龄、性别、分型、是否放置ICVF等11项因素进行对比分析。结果多因素logistic回归法分析放置ICVF,未完成抗凝治疗,分型及未行压力循环袜治疗是下肢DVT治疗后复发的独立危险因素(P0.05),而其他7项因素与DVT复发无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论 ICVF置入是DVT治疗后复发的重要危险因素,使用压力循环袜治疗和规范的抗凝治疗对预防DVT治疗后复发有重要的临床意义。     

胫骨下端恶性骨肿瘤切除后大段异体骨重建

目的应用大段异体骨移植及踝关节融合的保肢方法治疗胫骨下端恶性肿瘤和侵袭性肿瘤，并从预后、术后并发症及功能等几个方面加以评价。方法自1998年1月至2005年12月应用大段异体骨移植及踝关节融合的保肢方法治疗胫骨下端肿瘤患者11例；包括骨肉瘤8例，骨巨细胞瘤2例，软骨肉瘤1例。对骨肉瘤患者行新辅助化疗，按照Enneking分期，手术行边缘切除或广泛切除，应用大段深低温冷冻保存同种异体骨重建，钢板螺钉或带锁髓内钉固定。结果术后随访18-78个月，平均47个月。其中8例骨肉瘤患者随访28-78个月，平均50个月。11例均获得良好的骨愈合，开始出现骨愈合时间为术后3-18个月，平均8个月。无异体骨反应继发感染，无内固定失败。异体骨骨折1例，复发2例，肺转移3例，保肢率为81．8％。术后功能评定采用骨骼肌肉系统肿瘤手术治疗后重建功能评估系统（MSTS系统），评分为16～27分，平均24-3分。结论胫骨下端虽然软组织覆盖较薄，血运相对较差，但保肢术后肿瘤复发率不高，异体骨感染、不愈合、骨折率较低。固定方式以髓内固定为佳。大段异体骨移植及踝关节融合的保肢方法术后功能良好，给患者带来较大的心理安慰，是一种较好的保肢方式。     

The incidence of prostate cancer in a screening population with a serum prostate specific antigen between 2.5 and 4.0 ng/ml: relation to biopsy strategy

PURPOSE: It has recently been suggested that the diagnostic threshold for the prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay be lowered to enhance prostate cancer detection. A 22% incidence of prostate cancer has been reported in men with PSA between 2.5 and 4.0 ng/ml. We designed a study to confirm this observation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Men who participated in our free early detection program and who had serum PSA between 2.5 and 4.0 ng/ml were asked to undergo prostate biopsy. Of 268 eligible men 151 (56%) agreed to participate in this free trial. All men underwent biopsy using an 11-core multisite directed biopsy scheme. All biopsy cores were color coded for location specificity and examined by 1 pathologist. RESULTS: Cancer was identified in 24.5% (37 of 151) of the men biopsied. The median age of men with cancer was 62 years (range 43 to 74). Conventional systematic sextant biopsies, which accounted for 6 of the 11 cores, detected 73.0% (27 of 37) of the cancers and the alternate site biopsies identified the remaining 10. Gleason score was 6 in 25 men, 3 + 4 in 5, 4 + 3 in 4 and 8 or greater in 3 (median Gleason score 6). There were 14 men who had 1 core positive for cancer, 9 had 2 and 14 had more than 2 (median number of positive cores 2). Of the 14 men with 1 positive core 11 had a less than 3 mm focus of cancer and 8 had only a positive alternate site biopsy. There were 11 cases of abnormal results on digital rectal examination, 5 of which were cancer, and 31 cases of abnormal results on ultrasonography, 13 of which were cancer. Median biological variability in PSA was +/-15% (range 0.4% to 440.0%). CONCLUSIONS: We found a significant incidence of cancer (24.5%, 37 of 51) in men with serum PSA between 2.5 and 4.0 ng/ml. In our study 67.6% of the detected cancers were significant based on the biopsy data. If the PSA threshold is lowered the conventional systematic sextant technique may be preferable to an extended strategy.

脐带间充质干细胞在遗传性痉挛性截瘫中的应用

目的观察脐带间充质干细胞（UC-MSC）治疗遗传性痉挛性截瘫（HSP）的临床疗效及安全性。方法2010年9月及2011年4月,分别给予一HSP家系父子2人行UC-MSC鞘内注射治疗,两个疗程,每次1×106 cells/Kg,每周1次,4次为1个疗程。采用改良的Ashworth肌张力分级标准（MAS）、国际合作共济失调评分量表（ICARS）及日常生活量表（ADL）,对患者治疗前后神经功能、日常生活能力进行评定。结果第一疗程结束1个月与治疗前比较,2人MAS分级、ICARS及ADL评分均降低,两人行走站立稳定性及言语流利程度较治疗前改善;第二疗程结束后1个月与该疗程治疗前比较,2人ICARS及ADL评分降低,儿子肌张力进一步降低,父亲双上肢共济失调减轻。2人治疗后均未见明显不良反应发生。末次治疗结束后随访20个月,父、子俩分别于第二疗程治疗结束7个月及8个月后,症状继续加重。结论 UC-MSC鞘内注射治疗是安全的,可在一定时间内一定程度上减轻患者临床症状,提高患者生活质量,延缓疾病进展,但疗效不能持久。     

Recovery of T cell subsets after autologous bone marrow transplantation is mainly due to proliferation of mature T cells in the graft

In 22 patients with malignancies, treated with high-dose chemoradiotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT), peripheral blood T cell subsets and functions were studied. In ten cytomegalovirus (CMV)-negative patients, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells (representing T cells of the helper/inducer phenotype and T cells of the suppressor/cytotoxic phenotype, respectively), recovered slowly and simultaneously. In 12 CMV-positive patients, however, CD8+ T cells recovered more rapidly than CD4+ T cells and rose to increased counts. No T cells with an immature phenotype (CD1+, OKT6+) were observed. Lymphocyte stimulation by herpes simplex virus infected fibroblasts (and by CMV-infected fibroblasts in CMV-positive patients) in contrast remained high and even increased after BMT in both groups. These data indicate that T cell recovery after autologous BMT is mainly due to proliferation of mature T cells present in the BM graft and not to generation of new T cells from T cell precursors.     

Effect of acetylator phenotype on efficacy and toxicity of sulphasalazine in rheumatoid arthritis.

A group of 54 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (31 fast, 23 slow acetylators) treated with sulphasalazine 3 g/day were studied retrospectively. At 24 weeks no difference in the efficacy of the drug could be shown between fast and slow acetylators. In a second prospective study 40 fast acetylators were allocated to 3 g/day and 20 slow acetylators to 1.5 g/day. At 24 weeks marked improvement was seen in the fast acetylators given high dose but not the slow acetylators given low dose. It was also noted in this study that the usual ratio of fast : slow acetylators was reversed, and there is some suggestion that fast acetylators may be predisposed to more severe rheumatoid arthritis. The toxicity pattern in a total of 149 patients (83 fast, 66 slow acetylators) was also studied. Significantly more slow acetylators stopped treatment because of nausea or vomiting, or both, but serious toxicity was not confined to either group. Acetylator phenotype therefore appears important in determining the incidence of nausea and/or vomiting associated with sulphasalazine therapy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis but has no effect on the occurrence of potentially serious toxicity or efficacy. Thus prior measurement of acetylator phenotype in patients with rheumatoid arthritis confers little practical benefit in their management.     

Sexual behavior survey and screening for chlamydia and gonorrhea in university students in South Korea

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the present study was to define the prevalence of genital Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections and status of sexual risk behavior among university students (18-25 years old) in the capital region of South Korea. METHODS: Participants filled out a self-administered questionnaire related to sexuality. First-void urine was analyzed for chlamydial and gonococcal infection by strand displacement amplification (BDProbTecET, BD Diagnostic Systems, MD). RESULTS: A total of 622 students from 15 colleges in three universities took part in the study. The median age was 21 and 39.1% of them reported having sexual intercourse at least once. The prevalence of C. trachomatis among sexually active men and women was 8.4% and 10.6%, respectively. Gonococcal infection was noted in one symptomatic male. Factors significantly associated with infection were the number of sexual partners during past year and lifetime and condom use. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening in university students in South Korea. Urine-based STI screening was both feasible and acceptable in university students in South Korea. It should be considered a routine part of programs to control STI nationally.     

阿司匹林滴眼液防治糖尿病性白内障

目的:探讨阿司匹林滴眼液抑制糖尿病性白内障的作用效果及作用机制.方法:复制链脲佐菌素(streptozocin, STZ)糖尿病大鼠模型,成模后(血糖＞14 mmol/L)将动物分为低浓度阿司匹林治疗组(0.5 g/L)、高浓度阿司匹林治疗组(1 g/L)和未治疗组.治疗组每日给予2次阿司匹林滴眼液治疗左眼,采用裂隙显微镜观察并记录晶状体混浊的程度,使用分光光度计测定晶状体中谷胱甘肽、糖基化终末产物(advanced glycation end product, AGE)的含量以及谷胱甘肽还原酶、过氧化氢酶的活性.结果:建立糖尿病大鼠模型后6至9 wk,与糖尿病大鼠相比,治疗组大鼠晶状体混浊程度降低0.5～1个级别,谷胱甘肽的含量升高20%,过氧化氢酶的活性增强260%,而AGE的含量降低28%,它们之间差异均具有统计学意义(P＜0.05).结论:阿司匹林可能通过抑制晶状体蛋白质糖基化和氧化损伤的综合作用,延缓早期的糖尿病大鼠晶状体混浊.
