Non-invasive Assessment of Coronary Flow Velocity Reserve: A New Method Using Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) has been used toassess coronary microcirculation and epicardial coro-nary stenoses[1— 3 ] . CFR is defined as the ratio ofcoronary flow under maximal coronary vasodilatationto coronary flow under resting conditions[4 ] .Whenthe cross- sectional area of epicardial coronary arteriesis constant,coronary flow velocity (CFV) ratios areequal to volume flow ratios.The most common method used clinically formeasuring CFVR is intracoronary Doppler flow(ICD) analysis re…

61例流行性出血热患者临床各期血液流变学观察

通过血液流变学的检测,观察61例流行性出血热患者临床各期的改变。发现出血热患者临床各期,全血粘度的均数都高于正常对照的上限值。五期中少尿期升高不明显,发热期和多尿期明显升高。红细胞聚集指数各期均有显著性升高,提示出血热整个病程是DIC的形成过程。通过动态观察临床各期血液流变学的检测可及时正确地指导临床工作。     

Overexpression of parathyroid hormone-related protein in the skin of transgenic mice interferes with hair follicle development.

Parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) was initially discovered as the cause of the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. Subsequently, the PTHrP gene has been shown to be expressed in a wide variety of normal tissues, including skin. Because the biological function of PTHrP in skin remains unknown, we used the human keratin 14 promoter to target overexpression of PTHrP to the skin of transgenic mice. We achieved a 10-fold level of overexpression in skin, and human keratin 14 promoter-PTHrP transgenic mice displayed a disturbance in normal hair follicle development. These mice either failed to initiate follicle development or showed a delay in the initiation of follicles. These findings suggest that PTHrP normally plays a role in the early stages of hair follicle development and support previous speculation that the peptide may function in regulating cellular differentiation.     

小儿糖尿病血胰岛细胞抗体与胰岛素自身抗体

报道并分析20例小儿糖尿病患儿的临床资料及血胰岛细胞抗体(ICA)及胰岛素自身抗体(IAA)的测定资料。在20例患儿中,临床表现多不典型。在酮症酸中毒的治疗中小剂量胰岛素疗法方法简便,安全可靠,并发症少。本组患儿ICA阳性率55%,IAA阳性率30%,经卡方检验均显著高于对照组,推测病毒感染引起自身免疫反应,产生ICA及IAA而致本病发生。     

鼻部源性突眼的CT分析

目的：为了提高对鼻部源性突眼的认识。材料和方法：本文19例鼻部源性突眼，其中鼻咽癌7例，鼻咽纤维血管瘤2例，鼻腔纤维血管瘤、恶性肉芽肿和嗅神经母细胞瘤各1例，上颌窦癌和软骨肉瘤各2例，上颌窦恶性肉芽肿、纤维肉瘤和恶性纤维组织细胞瘤各1例，全部病例均作轴位CT扫描，12例加作增强扫描，详细分析了它们CT表现。结果：源于鼻咽的放疗前鼻咽癌和纤维血管瘤，其病变主要位于鼻咽腔和咽旁，后者显著增强并有钙斑，与前者不同；源于上颌窦的肿瘤，病变占据上颌窦的全部或大部分，软骨肉瘤有钙斑且无强化，易与其它肿瘤区别，它们破坏上颌窦顶部进入眼眶；鼻腔嗅神经母细胞瘤在鼻腔和筛窦形成肿块，破坏筛骨眶板侵入眼眶。结论：根据CT所见，可判断突眼原因。     

低剂量石英对大鼠肺泡灌洗液的早期影响

用支气管肺泡灌洗法研究低剂量石英对大鼠肺脏的影响。大鼠分别注尘2、10mg观察1、7、21天。结果表明低剂量石英可使灌洗液中细胞总数、有核细胞/红细胞比值、肺泡巨噬细胞显著增高,特别是泡沫型肺泡巨噬细胞随时间延长而明显增高。染尘动物灌洗液中蛋白、乳酸脱氢酶、碱性磷酸酶呈一过性升高,酸性磷酸酶在2mg石英组呈一过性升高,但在10mg石英组却持续上升。实验结果表明,肺泡巨噬细胞及其溶酶体膜的破坏在矽肺发生早期可能起一定的作用。
