Myasthenia Gravis Appearing After Thymectomy: a Case Report and Review of the Literature

A small proportion of thymoma patients without myasthenia gravis (MG) have been observed to develop MG after total removal of the thymoma. However, the underlying cause is not yet known due to the rarity of postoperative MG patients. We report a 39-year-old man in whom MG appeared after surgical removal of a thymoma. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed no signs of recurrent or metastatic thymoma. Administration of pyridostigmine bromide resulted in the prompt improvement of myasthenic symptoms. Our observations indicate that postoperative follow-up care with monitoring of possible postoperative MG is necessary after resecting a thymoma.     

磁共振波谱分析在脑胶质瘤侵袭边界确定中的应用进展

脑胶质瘤是最常见的颅内肿瘤、局部侵袭是脑胶质瘤的一个显著特征．典型的肿瘤有一个中央坏死灶，周围致密肿瘤细胞区．外绕被肿瘤细胞侵袭的脑组织。手术仍是目前临床上最主要和最基本的治疗方法，在保存正常脑组织的前提下尽可能的切除肿瘤一直是脑胶质瘤手术治疗中应遵循的基本原则。     

自杀行为及其干预的研究进展

自杀已经成为一个世界范围内的重大公共卫生问题。中国的自杀特征具有独特性。自杀行为的发生往往是内在因素与外部因素相互作用的结果，它与社会学、心理学、伦理学、生物学、精神病学等各方面密切相关。自杀原因虽然错综复杂，但我们要提高意识，认识到自杀是一种可以预防的公共卫生问题。     

基于变更模型的元数据在构件回归测试中的应用研究

本文针对Orso元数据方法的不足,对构件可能的变更进行了充分分析和分类,并按照分类情况对相关的构件变更处理方法进行了详尽的形式化描述,构造了构件变更模型,描述了每个变更的具体表现形式,论述了方法变更到构件接口变更的映射机制和算法,给出了算法实现的框架,并将这些理论模型应用到自主开发的构件RegisterStuGrade中,与没有元数据情况下的回归测试用例生成技术以及Orso方法进行回归测试用例数和回归测试运行时间两方面的分析和对比,给出了比较结果.     

Comparison of the effects of three different combinations of general anesthetics on the electroretinogram of dogs

The objective of this study is to compare the effects of three different anesthetic combinations on the electroretinogram in the same animals under similar laboratory conditions. Thiopental–isoflurane (TI), medetomidine–ketamine (MK), and xylazine–ketamine (XK) were used on each of 12 healthy miniature schnauzer dogs (MS) with a period of at least 3 weeks in between subsequent anesthesia protocols, using the Dog Standard Protocol. The scotopic ERGs consisted of scotopic low stimulus strength (S) responses designated S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5, at 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min after dark adaptation, respectively, and scotopic standard stimulus strength (S-ST) responses. The photopic ERGs consisted of a photopic single flash (P) response and 31 Hz flicker (P-FL) responses. For S-ST (2.5 cd s/m²), the amplitude of the a-wave using TI was significantly lower than that using MK (adjusted P = 0.05) and XK (adjusted P = 0.03), and the implicit time of the a-wave was significantly shorter than that using MK (adjusted P = 0.04). For P (2.5 cd s/m²), the amplitude of the b-wave using XK was significantly higher than that using MK (adjusted P = 0.01). The implicit times of the b-wave using TI was significantly longer and shorter than that of MK for S1, S2 and P-FL and for S4 and S-ST, respectively, and than that of XK for S2 and P-FL and for S5 and S-ST, respectively. The results of the present study showed that TI affected both the amplitude and the implicit time of the a-wave for S-ST and the implicit time of the b-wave relatively more so than was the case when using XK or MK. Therefore, it appears that either XK or MK could be advantageous to use rather than TI for clinical studies.     

Burkholderia gladioli: five year experience in a cystic fibrosis and lung transplantation center.

BACKGROUND: The impact of infection with Burkholderia gladioli in cystic fibrosis, other chronic airway diseases and immunosuppressed patients is unknown. METHODS: A six-year retrospective review of all patients with B. gladioli infection was performed in a tertiary referral center with cystic fibrosis and lung transplantation programs. In addition, a targeted survey of all 251 lung transplant recipients was performed. Available B. gladioli isolates were analyzed via pulsed field gel electrophoresis. RESULTS: Thirty-five patients were culture positive for B. gladioli, including 33 CF patients. No bacteremia was identified. Isolates were available in 18 patients and all were genetically distinct. Two-thirds of these isolates were susceptible to usual anti-pseudomonal antibiotics. After acquisition, only 40% of CF patients were chronically infected (> or =2 positive cultures separated by at least 6 months). Chronic infection was associated with resistance to > or =2 antibiotic groups on initial culture and failure of eradication after antibiotic therapy. The impact of acquisition of B. gladioli infection in chronic infection was variable. Three CF patients with chronic infection underwent lung transplantation. One post-transplant patient developed a B. gladioli mediastinal abscess, which was treated successfully. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of patients' culture positive for B. gladioli at our center have CF. B. gladioli infection is often transient and is compatible with satisfactory post-lung transplantation outcomes.     

血管介入仿真模拟器在心血管医生冠状动脉介入技术规范化培训中的作用

目的明确Angiomemor（美国Simbionix公司生产）血管介入仿真模拟器是否有助于冠状动脉造影技术的掌握和提高。方法选取16名无血管放射介入经验的心血管医生，接受相同课时的冠状动脉介入造影理论培训后，按随机表编码随机分为模拟器培训组与非培训组各8名，模拟器培训组8名医生接受Angiomemor血管介入仿真模拟器培训，模拟冠状动脉造影操作，非培训组8名心血管医生未接受仿真模拟器培训。在随后的真实临床环境中操作冠状动脉造影时，评价2组医生冠状动脉造影操作过程中错误的频数、平均造影时间、造影剂使用量及术中放射线剂量。结果相对于非培训组，模拟器培训组医生在冠状动脉造影操作中错误频数减少62．5％、平均造影时间减少44．0％、造影剂使用量减少44．0％，术中平均放射线曝光时间减少了57．7％，平均X线累计曝光剂量减少51．6％，单位面积X线累计曝光剂量减少了52．4％。结论Angiomemor血管介入仿真模拟器有助于医生较快地熟练掌握冠状动脉造影技术，是冠状动脉介入规范化培训的重要辅助手段之一。
