地塞米松对大鼠生长板软骨细胞TGF-β1表达的影响

目的观察药理剂量地塞米松对大鼠生长板软骨细胞TGF-β1表达的影响，探讨地塞米松抑制大鼠骨骼生长的机制。方法3周龄清洁级纯系雄性SD大鼠，随机分为实验组12只和对照组8只。实验组大鼠腹腔注射地塞米松（200μg／100g，10d）处理，对照组注射等容积的生理盐水。胫骨切片做TGF-β1免疫组化分析。结果对照组大鼠生长板TGF-β1免疫组织化学染色切片肥大带软骨细胞呈现免疫阳性反应。地塞米松处理使大鼠生长板肥大软骨细胞TGF-β1表达增加。结论药理剂量地塞米松促进肥大带软骨细胞表达TGF-β1，从而抑制骨骼纵向生长。

CASE OF FASCIOLIASIS: EXTRACTION WITH ENDOSCOPIC RETROGRADE CHOLANGIOGRAPHY

Fascioliasis is a worldwide zoonotic infection with fasciola hepatica and fasciola gigantica. The zoonoses are particularly endemic in sheep‐raising countries and are also endemic in Turkey. Clinical features of fascioliasis relate to the stage and intensity of infection. Fasciola hepatica infection comprises two stages: hepatic and biliary, with different signs and symptoms. Cholestatic symptoms may be sudden, but, in some cases, they may be preceded by a long period of fever, eosinophilia and vague gastrointestinal symptoms. We reported a case with fever and upper‐quadrant abdominal pain since 3 months that comes from an area endemic for fasciola hepatica, with suspected imaging about fasciola hepatica in common bile duct on ultrasonography. After that, fasciola hepatica was extracted with endoscopic retrograde cholangiography.     

Interferon-gamma knockout fails to confer protection against obliteration in heterotopic murine tracheal allografts.

BACKGROUND: Interferon-gamma, produced by T-helper cells, activates macrophages and increases expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) products in acute and chronic rejection. We investigated the role of interferon-gamma in murine heterotopic tracheal allografts. METHODS: Tracheas from BALB/c mice were heterotopically transplanted to BALB/c (12 isografts: 2 weeks [n = 6] and 4 weeks [n = 6], C57BL/6 (12 allografts: 2 weeks [n = 6] and 4 weeks [n = 6]) and C57BL/6 interferon-gamma knockout mice (12 interferon-gamma knockout allografts: 2 weeks [n = 4] and 4 weeks [n = 8]). BALB/c interferon-gamma knockout tracheas were transplanted to C57BL/6 mice (reverse knockout: 4 weeks [n = 6]) and BALB/c interferon-gamma knockout mice (4 weeks [n = 2]). C57BL/6 tracheas were transplanted to Bm12 mice (MHC Class II mismatch allografts: 4 weeks [n = 6]). Conventional histology and immunohistochemistry for CD4, CD8 and CD11b were performed. RESULTS: Minimal (<20%) obliteration was seen at 2 weeks in the allograft groups. No obliteration was seen in the isograft groups. However, all allografts were completely obliterated at 4 weeks. Interferon-gamma knockout allograft combinations displayed severe rejection characterized by intense intra- and extraluminal infiltration by CD4-, CD8- and CD11b-labeled cells. The MHC Class II mismatch allograft group showed normal epithelium and mild sub-epithelial infiltration by CD4+ cells at 4 weeks (CD8-, CD11b-). CONCLUSIONS: Absence of interferon-gamma does not protect the allograft from obliteration. Epithelial destruction by cytotoxic T cells appears to be an important mechanism in the development of obliteration in murine heterotopic tracheal allografts.     

义齿PMMA基托表面粗糙度影响的实验研究

目的：研究技工操作因素对义齿树脂基托表面粗糙度的影响。方法：在不同粉液比、充填时期、聚合温度、混合方式以及出盒温度成型的上颌半口义齿基托上选取1.5cm^2范围，按照统一的打磨顺序，由粗到细打磨抛光完成，浸入冷水中，7天后进行粗糙度测试，所得数据经t检验统计处理。结果：在单体含量降低组、丝状期充填组．热处理时直接放入70℃水中维持9h组与对照组相比，均存在显著差异（P〈0．05）。结论：影响PMMA树脂表面粗糙度的制作工艺因素有单体含量降低、丝状期充填和未经100℃高温热处理。     

原发性恶性骨肿瘤的治疗进展

1简介在人类全部肿瘤中,原发骨肿瘤相对少见,因此只有少数肿瘤中心可收治到数量比较多的病例。近年来在骨肿瘤的诊断和治疗领域已经取得了很大的进步。放射医师与病理医师和临床医师紧密地合作,应用大量先进的技术使我们对这种恶性疾病有了更加深入的了解,从而可以更好地对病人     

Effects of oral continuous 17beta-estradiol plus norethisterone acetate replacement therapy on abdominal subcutaneous fat, serum leptin levels and body composition.

AIM: To evaluate the effects of oral continuous 17beta-estradiol plus norethisterone acetate (E2/NETA) replacement therapy on abdominal subcutaneous fat, serum leptin level (SLL) and body composition in postmenopausal women. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 6-month, prospective, randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study was conducted. Forty-three healthy naturally postmenopausal women aged 43-65 years were randomly assigned to receive E2/NETA (2 mg E2 plus 1 mg NETA, n = 22) or placebo (n = 21). Fasting SLL by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, subcutaneous abdominal fat thickness (STh) by ultrasound and the anthropometric indices of body weight (BW), body mass index (BMI), waist and hip circumference (WC, HC) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were recorded at the beginning and the end of the study. RESULTS: After 6 months of therapy, BW and SLL increased in the placebo group (p = 0.043 and 0.033, respectively). WC, HC and STh decreased significantly in the E2/NETA group (p = 0.002, 0.006 and 0.000, respectively) and they were also significantly lower in women receiving E2/NETA than in women taking placebo (p = 0.000, 0.034 and 0.000, respectively). At baseline, SLL and STh were positively correlated with all anthropometric indices except WHR. CONCLUSION: Oral continuous combined regimen of E2/NETA significantly reduced central fat accumulation as assessed by WC and STh, and attenuated the increase in SLL. The observed changes in SLL were highly and positively related to changes in STh. The oral continuous combined E2/NETA regimen appears to have protective effects on cardiovascular function and probably on metabolic diseases by its slimming effect upon WC in postmenopausal women.     

腹腔镜与开放性肾囊肿去顶术的临床对照分析

目的评价腹腔镜与开放性肾囊肿去顶术的临床疗效。方法回顾性分析采用经后腹腔镜和经腹腔镜行肾囊肿去顶术21例，其中经腹腔5例，经后腹腔16例，与开放性手术16例比较。结果手术时间，术中平均出血量，术后下床活动时间，术后住院天数，术后并发症腹腔镜组均优于开放手术组，住院费用腹腔镜组略高于开放性手术组。结论腹腔镜肾囊肿去顶术治疗单纯性肾囊肿安全、有效。应成为治疗单纯性肾囊肿的首选方法。
