性别对骨关节炎患者全膝关节置换术后康复效果的影响

目的 探讨性别因素对接受人工全膝关节表面置换术的膝骨关节炎患者术后功能的影响. 方法 前瞻性研究了 2003年 3月～ 2005年 8月期间行单侧人工全膝关节表面置换术(均使用不保留后交叉韧带后稳定型固定平台假体)的 40例 (40髋 )膝关节骨关节炎患者,男女各 20例( 20膝),对其相关的临床因素用 t检验和χ 2检验进行分析. 结果平均年龄:男 72.6岁、女 70.8岁;病程:男 10.4年、女 9.7年;体重指数:男 26、女 26;术后平均住院时间:男 17 d、女 18 d;止血带使用时间:男 104 min、女 94 min;引流量:男 806 mL、女 742 mL;术前、术后 1周、 2周和 1年的膝关节伸屈度数男分别为 7.0°～ 114.0°、 3.0°～ 91.0°、 0.4°～ 103.0°和 0～ 125.0°,女分别为 8.0°～ 111.0°、 2.0°～ 86.0°、 1.0°～ 98.0°和 0～ 122.0°;术前、术后 1周、 2周和 1年的膝关节活动度:男分别为 108°、 89°、 109°和 123°,女分别为 104°、 87°、 101°和 126°;术前和术后 1年的 HSS评分:男分别为 57、 89分,女分别为 53、 87分.两性别组各时间点的伸屈度数、活动范围及术前和术后 1年的 HSS评分差异无统计学意义 (P >0.05);而同一患者术前和术后 1年的伸屈度数及 HSS评分则差异有统计学意义 (P >0.05). 结论 性别对行全膝关节置换的骨关节炎患者术后功能无明显影响,全膝关节置换能有效缓解骨关节炎相关的疼痛并改善膝关节的功能.     

腹腔镜肝右后叶囊肿开窗引流术35例报告

目的：探讨肝右后叶肝囊肿的腹腔镜处理方法。方法：1998年1月～2005年12月对35例有症状的肝右后叶囊肿（21例主要位于Ⅵ段，14例主要位于第Ⅶ段）采用四孔法行囊肿开窗引流术。囊肿位于肝右后叶上段者采用肝上入路，胆囊牵引钳或三叶钳推压肝脏使其向前向下，暴露肝后囊肿，囊肿开窗，修剪带蒂大网膜放入囊肿。囊肿位于肝右后叶下段者采用肝下入路，超声刀切开肝结肠韧带，右三角韧带及肝肾间疏松组织，胆囊牵引钳抬起肝脏，囊肿开窗，大网膜放入囊腔引流。结果：35例肝右后叶肝囊肿均在腹腔镜下完成肝囊肿开窗引流术，无中转开腹手术。15例采用肝上入路，20例采用肝下入路。手术时间30～95min，平均46min。无手术并发症。35例病理检查结果均为先天性肝囊肿。术后症状均消失。术后住院2～5d，平均3．8d。35例随访6～36个月，平均34个月，33例无复发，2例（为肝上入路病例）囊肿未完全消失，但较术前明显缩小，无明显症状，观察半年未见增大。结论：肝下及肝上入路囊肿开窗引流是腹腔镜下处理肝右叶肝囊肿的有效方法。     

Pathways from first health care seeking to diagnosis: obstacles to tuberculosis care in rural China.

OBJECTIVE: To examine health care seeking pathways for patients with tuberculosis (TB) and barriers related to these pathways in counties under the National TB Control Programme in rural China. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted in two counties of east China in 2004-2005. A total of 557 TB patients were recruited and interviewed by physicians at the time of TB diagnosis. RESULTS: Of 557 participants, 13.3% had presented to a specialised county TB dispensary (CTD) directly after onset of symptoms, 31.4% had first sought care at a village health station and 51.2% had visited a township or county hospital first. The proportion of referral by a first health care provider to a CTD was highest in county level hospitals (73.5%) and lowest in village health stations (21.7%). The most prompt pathway from first health care seeking to TB diagnosis was to visit a CTD directly, with a median provider's delay of only one day. There was an increase in provider's delay when more health facilities were involved. CONCLUSION: To improve direct referral from general health care providers, especially village health care workers, to TB specialists would significantly shorten the delays in TB diagnosis in rural China.     

Late atrioventricular block after heart transplantation.

Bradyarrhythmia requiring permanent pacing after heart transplantation remains a common problem. Sinus node dysfunction is the most common indication, and late onset of atrioventricular (AV) block has rarely been reported. We report the case of a patient who developed advanced AV block at 41 months after transplantation. Right bundle branch block with progressive increase of QRS complex duration was noted in serial electrocardiograms. At the time of late AV block development, the patient did not have acute rejection and coronary angiogram was normal. The mechanism of late onset of AV block is unclear, but it may be caused by progressive conduction.

胰岛素瘤的超声诊断:与其他诊断方法比较

目的:探讨超声等方法对胰岛素瘤的定位诊断价值。材料和方法:对42例经过手术和病理证实的胰岛素瘤患者术前定位诊断的各种方法进行回顾性分析,并与其他诊断方法对比分析其各自的定位符合率。结果:定位诊断符合率分别为B超31%(13/42)、EUS55.6%(5/9)、IOUS100%(10/10)、超声引导下PTPC100%(3/3)、CT59.5%(25/42)、MRI50%(6/12)、选择性DSA27.3%(3/11)及ASVS90%(9/10)。彩超(CDUS)对胰岛素瘤良、恶性有鉴别作用。结论:遵循循序渐进原则,先后选用B超(含CDUS)、EUS、CT等已可解决80%以上的定位诊断,然后再做MRI及ASVS;对仍未作出定位者,只要定性诊断明确即有手术探查指征,因为IOUS能提供可靠的定位信息。     

Enantioselective metabolism and cytotoxicity of R-ifosfamide and S-ifosfamide by tumor cell-expressed cytochromes P450.

The anticancer prodrug ifosfamide (IFA) contains a chiral phosphorous atom and is administered in the clinic as a racemic mixture of R-IFA and S-IFA. Hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes exhibit enantioselective preferences in the metabolism of R-IFA and S-IFA; however, the impact of this selectivity on P450-dependent anticancer activity is not known. Presently, the metabolism and cytotoxicity of R-IFA and S-IFA were determined in 9L gliosarcoma and Chinese hamster ovary tumor cells expressing an IFA-activating P450 enzyme and by in vitro steady-state kinetic analysis using cDNA-expressed P450 enzymes. Tumor cells expressing P450 enzyme CYP3A4 were the most sensitive to R-IFA cytotoxicity, whereas tumor cells expressing CYP2B1 or CYP2B6 were most sensitive to cyclophosphamide (CPA), an isomer of IFA. Correspondingly, CYP3A4-expressing cells and cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 metabolized R-IFA to yield the active, 4-hydroxylated metabolite at a 2- to 3-fold higher rate than they metabolized S-IFA or CPA. CYP2B cells and cDNA-expressed CYP2B enzymes metabolized CPA almost exclusively by 4-hydroxylation, whereas R-IFA and S-IFA were substantially converted to inactive, N-dechloroethylated metabolites. Further investigation revealed that CYP3A1, a rat enzyme, exhibited superior kinetic properties compared with the human enzyme CYP3A4, with R-IFA and S-IFA both metabolized with high catalytic efficiency by 4-hydroxylation and with a K(m) value of 200 microM, approximately 5-fold lower than CYP3A4. Based on these kinetic parameters and metabolic profiles, R-IFA is expected to exert greater anticancer activity than S-IFA or CPA against tumors that express CYP3A enzymes, whereas tumors expressing CYP2B enzymes may be more sensitive to CPA treatment.
