亚低温对大鼠脑损伤后脑组织炎性反应的影响

目的探讨颅脑外伤后早期应用亚低温治疗对脑组织炎性反应的影响。方法采用Feeney自由落体改良模型,设定对照组、颅脑外伤模型组及亚低温组,每组再根据伤后不同生存时间随分为3个亚组。取伤灶脑组织检测髓过氧化酶(MPO)活性,做细胞间黏附子-1(ICAM-1)免疫组化染色,光镜下计数ICAM-1阳性血管数。结果亚低温组各时间点伤灶区ICAM-1阳性血管数明显低于颅脑外伤模型相应时间点(P<0.01)。亚低温组各时间点MPO活性均明显低于颅脑外伤模型组相应时间点(P<0.01)。结论亚低温治疗能明显减少伤灶区白细胞浸润及ICAM-1的表达,有助于改善颅脑外伤后脑组织炎性反应引起的继发性脑损伤。     

神经导航内窥镜辅助下单鼻孔入路垂体腺瘤切除

目的神经导航、内窥镜辅助下垂体腺瘤的经单鼻孔经蝶手术治疗。方法对6例经磁共振成像诊断垂体腺瘤的病人术前进行磁共振成像定位,将影像资料输入导航工作站,作术前手术计划。采用零度及45度镜经单鼻腔,在导航的动态指引下确认鞍底,于内窥镜下实施瘤实质切除。结果本组5例完全切除,1例因为瘤实质较韧而作大部分切除,术后病人的视力均得到了改善。导航预期误差1.48mm,实际误差1.8mm。结论神经导航引导下的经鼻蝶垂体腺瘤手术定位准确,内窥镜下操作对鼻腔的解剖结构影响小、组织损伤轻,病人恢复快。     

Outcome after traumatic frontal intracerebral haemorrhage: a comparison of unilateral and bilateral haematomas

Frontal intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is a common result of cranial trauma. Outcome differences between bilateral and unilateral frontal ICH are not well studied but would be valuable to predict prognosis in clinical practice. Two aims are proposed in this study: first to compare the risk of developing delayed ICH after bilateral or unilateral frontal ICH, and second to determine the variables helpful to predict outcome according to the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Between January 1993 and December 1997, 694 consecutive patients with traumatic ICH were admitted to the Chang Gung Medical Center within 24 h of the trauma. Patients with ICH in sites other than the frontal lobes were excluded. A total of 161 cases (mean age 46.3+/-20.3 years), including 57 bilateral (mean age 52.5+/-18.7 years) and 104 unilateral (mean age 42.9+/-20.5 years) traumatic frontal ICH were studied. Twenty-eight of 57 patients (49%) with bifrontal ICH versus 17 of 104 patients (16%) with unilateral frontal ICH had a further, delayed ICH. In 42 of 45 patients (93%) with delayed ICH, this occurred within 5 days of the initial trauma. Multivariate logistic regression was used to select significant predictors of outcome. We found that delayed ICH (p<0.001), age (p=0.004) and mechanism of injury (p=0.001) explained the worse outcome in patients with bifrontal ICH. The best-fitting logistic regression model included three variables: delayed ICH (p=0.011), initial GCS (p=0.023), and a sum score of clinical and radiological variables (p=0.003). Bifrontal ICH tended to occur in older patients after a fall and was associated with a higher risk of developing delayed ICH or brain stem compression compared to unilateral ICH damage. Using these three variables - delayed ICH, initial GCS, and the sum score - in a logistical regression model is useful to predict outcome in patients with traumatic frontal ICH and may aid patient management.

Clinicopathological study of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)-associated pyelonephritis in renal transplantation

Abstract:  We retrospectively studied the occurrence of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)-associated pyelonephritis using renal biopsies obtained from the transplanted kidneys, and correlated the histological changes with clinical parameters. Out of a total of 131 renal biopsies performed between 1990 and 2001 on renal transplant patients at the department of Urology of Nagasaki University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, 12 patients showed pyuria more than twice in a single year. Seven of these 12 patients were available for determining VUR by voiding cystourethrography (VCUG). Cystoureterography demonstrated VUR in three of seven studied patients with pyuria. A histopathological examination revealed dilatation of both proximal and distal tubules in renal biopsies of transplant patients with VUR, compared to renal biopsies of transplant patients without VUR, or non-transplanted patients with thin membrane disease. One of the patients with VUR showed advanced features of chronic pyelonephritis in four consecutive biopsies at different time points, suggesting a late stage of reflux nephropathy in the transplanted kidney. We conclude from our study that the occurrence of VUR-related pyelonephritis may be one of the important long-term complications in the survival of renal allografts.

三七药材指纹图谱的研究

Fingerprinting of Panax notoginseng was performed by high-performance liquid chromatography using Agilent Hypersil C18 (250.0 mm x 4.0 mm, 5 microm) column with the mobile phase of acetonitrile and water and gradient elution. The detection wavelength was set at 203 nm. The method is simple and reliable to identify and evaluate the quality of Panax notoginseng.
