569名未婚女性人工流产原因分析

目的:了解未婚人流女性特征,分析其人流原因。方法:采用分层整群多阶段抽样方法,以统一匿名调查表,由统一培训的专业医生对2004年10月~2005年5月在16个抽样单位行人流术的全部未婚女性进行调查。结果:569名调查对象平均年龄20.5岁,伴侣平均年龄23.8岁,月均性生活次数7.4次,33%的被调查者有既往怀孕史。本次人流原因主要为未避孕(71.7%),其原因主要是侥幸心理、不懂避孕和怕麻烦。避孕套是被调查者中知晓率和使用率最高的避孕方法。以百分制计算,被调查者避孕方法和知识的得分分别为60.4分和64.8分,其避孕知识主要来自媒体。结论:未婚女性性活跃、意外妊娠风险认识低、性和生殖健康知识贫乏,应加强未婚人群的性观念和性行为道德教育,根据其年龄和心理特征,提供相关的生殖健康知识和服务,并加强对媒体相关宣传的规范管理。

In vitro dissolution rates of six 8-methoxypsoralen formulations

Dissolution rates in water of six oral 8-methoxypsoralen formulations were determined with both the rotating basket method and a column type flow-through method. Comparable and reproducible results were obtained with both methods. In view of the necessity in psoralen-UVA (PUVA) therapy that effective tissue concentrations of the drug be present in the skin during the irradiation period, we propose a requirement for a dissolution rate of 8-MOP tablets or capsules of at least 80% within 25 min. None of the three preparations registered in The Netherlands met this requirement. However, two preparations from abroad and a new capsule formulated in our pharmacy department with solid 8-MOP dispersed in polyethylene glycol 6000 showed satisfactory dissolution profiles.     

THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN SERUM T3 INDEX, THYROID VOLUME, AND THYROID STIMULATING, TSH RECEPTOR BINDING AND THYROID GROWTH STIMULATING ANTIBODIES IN UNTREATED GRAVES'' DISEASE

High plasma concentrations of neuropeptide Y (NPY) were found in a patient with bilateral adrenal phaeochromocytomas and medullary thyroid carcinoma associated with MEN IIa (32 pmol/l, normal less than 3.5 pmol/l). Both adrenal tumours contained and secreted NPY. Manipulation at operation produced a remarkable increase in plasma NPY concentrations (peak = 1631 pmol/l) coinciding with increases in plasma levels of catecholamines and arterial pressure. NPY was also shown to be present in thyroid tumour tissue: the concentration of NPY in tumour was 50-fold higher (0.9 nmol/g vs 0.004 nmol/g) than in adjacent normal thyroid tissue. It is possible that NPY from some phaeochromocytomas may contribute to hypertension during surgery.

The need for assessment of sensory functioning in ageing people with mental handicap

ABSTRACT. Within the framework of a study on the ageing process of people with mental handicap in the Netherlands, information about visual and hearing impairments in 1583 people with mental handicap living in group homes or institutions was obtained from their physicians by means of a written questionnaire. Of the people with Down's syndrome (DS) who were older than 50 years of age, 46% had a visual impairment, whereas approximately 13% of subjects with other causes of mental handicap at the same age experienced similar visual impairment. Hearing loss in this age group was reported in 28% of people with DS, but only in 8% of subjects with other causes of mental handicap. The most common eye condition was cataracts, and the most frequent cause of hearing impairment was infection. In people with severe and profound mental handicap of all ages, sensory impairments were more frequent than in persons with mild or moderate mental handicap. Glasses or hearing aids were rarely used by people with severe or profound mental handicap. Assessment of visual and hearing impairments in people with mental handicap seemed clearly indicated, especially in those aged 50 years and older, in those with DS, and in those with severe or profound mental handicap.

Short-term indomethacin administration does not impair excretion of acute potassium load in humans

Maintenance treatment with prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors often causes some degree of hyperkalemia, indicating impaired potassium (K) excretion. Hypoaldosteronism probably is a mediating factor, but it is unknown whether these drugs also impair renal K excretion directly. Indomethacin, for example, stimulates NaCl reabsorption in Henle's loop, and thus may impair K excretion by decreasing distal NaCl delivery. We therefore studied the effect of 1 day administration of indomethacin (50 mg tid) on the excretion of a single oral KCl (1 mmol kg-1 body weight) in six healthy volunteers taking a 40 mmol sodium diet. To allow analysis of renal sodium handling, clearance studies were performed during water loading. In this acute setting, indomethacin had no effect on plasma K, and did not decrease plasma aldosterone. However, indomethacin clearly reduced NaCl excretion. Nonetheless, the excretion of the K load was entirely normal. Excretion of the K load was accompanied by increased clearance of phosphate and uric acid, and natriuresis. Data derived from the maximal free water clearance were compatible with increased delivery to and decreased reabsorption from the diluting segment. Occurrence of these effects was not prevented by indomethacin, although overall NaCl excretion remained less than observed without indomethacin. Indomethacin reduced prostaglandin E2 excretion substantially. Apparently, in normal man indomethacin does not impair K excretion directly, even though it greatly reduces NaCl excretion. Moreover, the effects of K on renal NaCl handling, probably contributing to the excretion of a K load, are not dependent on renal prostaglandins.     

Scintigraphic visualization of intrathecal liposome biodistribution

Background: Liposomes containing local anaesthetics have been administered intrathecally and in the epidural space. Poor attention has been given to the pharmacokinetics of liposomes as drug carriers. Therefore, we observed the biodistribution of liposomes after intrathecal injection in rats by scintigraphic imaging during 24 h.
Methods: We administered ⁹⁹Tc-labeled multilamellar (MLV) and small unilamellar vesicles (SUV) of defined size and volume dispersities into the cerebrospinal fluid at the lumbar level. Those vesicles were free of contamination by radiolabeled colloids as visualized by light and electron microscopy and of neurotoxic products from phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis and peroxidation, both during the preparation process and after 24 h incubation in cerebrospinal fluid at 37°C in vitro.
Results: SUV immediately diffused from the lumbar site of injection to the head and were cleared between 1 and 24 h after injection. MLV were cleared more slowly from the spinal space and appeared in the head region 1 h after injection where they accumulated up to 24 h. These differences were explained in terms of vesicle sizes and volumes. SUV with 0.05 μm diameters were rapidly absorbed into the blood through the arachnoid granulations. In contrast, particles larger than the upper size limit of the arachnoid granulations permeability (±8 μm) could accumulate in the head with a slow elimination rate.
Conclusion: This difference in clearance from the intrathecal space outlines the importance of defining the size of the liposomes, the distribution of a tracer or a drug inside the liposomal preparation, the chemical stability and the absence of toxic degradation products of liposome formulations before clinical use.
