Seroreactivities against Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis p35 and p36 antigens in Crohn's disease patients

Crohn's disease (CD) is an idiopathic chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Accurate diagnosis of the disease is of great clinical importance to assess its prognosis and success of therapy. Recent studies have validated and confirmed the potential utility of anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast; ASCA) IgG/IgA antibodies and anti-M. avium ss. paratuberculosis p35/p36 antibodies, separately, as serological markers to identify patients with CD. The efficacy of these markers was evaluated in the same patients with Crohn's disease. The anti-ASCA IgA/IgG and the anti-M. avium ss. paratuberculosis p35/p36 antibodies were positive in 60% (36/60) and 86.7% (52/60) of CD patients, respectively. When all the serologic markers were considered, the sensitivity in detecting CD was increased to 95.0% (57/60); 21 of 24 ASCA-negative patients were p35/p36-positive and five of eight of p35/p36-negative patients were ASCA-positive. This investigation further establishes the utility of p35 and p36 recombinant clones for the diagnosis of CD, and reveals the complimentary role of ASCA and p35 and p36 for effective detection of CD. Larger studies are needed to investigate the combined use of these serologic markers for the diagnosis of CD.     

新疆紫草颗粒剂与汤剂对药物流产效果影响的比较性研究

目的:比较新疆紫草颗粒剂与紫草汤剂对米非司酮配伍米索前列醇药物流产效果的影响,及不良反应。方法:将648例妊娠38-45　d、要求终止妊娠的妇女,随机分成3组,各组在米非司酮配伍米索前列醇药物流产时分别加服紫草颗粒剂或安慰剂或紫草汤剂,对3组的流产效果、出血时间、月经恢复时间等及不良反应进行观察。结果:紫草颗粒剂组和汤剂组的完全流产率(97.74%、97.70%)、平均出血时间(12.0±4.1　d、12.7±3.8　d)均无显著性差异(P均>0.05),且均显著优于安慰剂组(91.90%、14.3±4.8　d)(P均<0.05)。3组药物流产后月经恢复时间均无显著性差异。但紫草汤剂服用时有明显异味。结论:　紫草颗粒剂祛除了紫草的异味,服用方便,对其提高药物流产疗效与紫草汤剂相同,有必要进一步探讨。

南京医科大学七年制临床医学专业人才培养效果评价

通过对毕业生及其培养或用人单位的问卷调查,本文分析了南京医科大学七年制临床医学专业人才培养的成效,以及江苏省医疗卫生事业发展对高层次医学人才的需求.结果 显示,临床实践能力和科研创新能力是医疗卫生事业发展所需要的高层次医学人才的重要能力;在三级甲等医院工作,具有硕士/博士学位、在专业技术岗位的被调查者更加看重医学生的科研创新能力;而在"1年通识教育、4年医学专业教育(含1年临床课程及见习、1年临床通科实习)、2年二级学科轮转"模式下培养的七年制临床医学专业毕业生的临床实践能力较强,但是科研创新能力不足,且学业负担偏重.因此,应当加强对七年制临床医学专业学生科研创新能力的培养和临床实践能力的通科训练.

Abstract：

An evaluation of 7-year medical education program in Nanjing Medical University was performed via questionnaire survey to the graduates and the staff of hospitals in which the graduates work,and the demand for advanced quality of medical graduates in the field of medical health care in Jiangsu Province is further analyzed. The results showed that the capacity for clinical practice and the capacity for research and innovation are the most important, which can meet the demands of health service development for high-level medical talents. The staff working in advanced hospitals, possessing master or doctor degree,or working as medical experts put more emphasis on the ability of the graduates to do innovative scientific research. Through the completed procedure of the 7-year program includes college general education for 1 year, medical education for 4 years ( containing senior clinical clerkship for 1 year and internship for 1 year) and alternation for medical and surgery subspecialties for 2 years, the graduates showed higher ability to do clinical practice, but not showed the growth of capacity for research and innovation. The most staff investigated proposed an enhancement in training for the capacity for innovative research and general clinical practice.     

Primary Ewing sarcoma: follow-up with Ga-67 scintigraphy

While avid accumulation of gallium-67 citrate and technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP) occurs initially in most cases of primary Ewing sarcoma, uptake after therapy is less well defined. Thirty patients with Ewing sarcoma who underwent Ga-67 and bone scintigraphy at diagnosis, at completion of therapy, and at relapse from 1978 to 1988 were evaluated. All 30 patients showed less primary site Ga-67 activity following therapy. Twenty-three of 28 patients who underwent corresponding bone scintigraphy showed less uptake, but residual activity was usually more intense than with Ga-67. Avid reaccumulation of Ga-67 occurred in four of five patients with primary site relapse, while patients who underwent bone scintigraphy showed less change. It was concluded that a greater decrease in Ga-67 than in Tc-99m MDP uptake often occurs in patients successfully treated for primary Ewing sarcoma. Information obtained at Ga-67 scintigraphy is most likely to be helpful if results of bone scintigraphy remain abnormal or if occult relapse is suspected.     

脾切除对结直肠癌切除术后的影响：一项多中心、嵌入式、配对队列研究

目的探讨医源性脾脏损伤脾切除对结直肠癌切除患者术后长期生存的影响。方法对1990年1月1日至1999年12月31日10年间行结直肠癌手术切除并附带脾切除患者进行病例配对回顾研究。分析患者年龄、性别、依据美国麻醉学医师协会（ASA）标准评估的身体状况、疾病分期、手术类型及预后等资料。配对病例来自同一医疗中心，性别、年龄、疾病分期及手术类型完全相同。手术附带脾切除患者为试验组，未切脾者为对照组。结果55例患者行医源性脾切除术，对照组在年龄、性别、身体状况、疾病分期及手术类型上与之匹配。随访时间（从手术开始到患者死亡或者最后一次随访1为2～205个月（中位随访时间为43个月）。Cox比例危险度模型进行Kaplan-Meier法生存分析发现两组间差异有显著性意义，不切除脾脏对患者生存有利（危险度1．8，95％可信区间为1-3．3，P=0．0399），未切脾组与切脾组5年生存率分别为70％和47％，10年生存率分别为55％和38％。结论结直肠癌患者在行结肠或直肠切除时，因医源性脾脏损伤而切除脾脏者，预后较差。
