CD4+CD25+调节T细胞与肿瘤免疫治疗策略

随着分子生物技术的不断发展,肿瘤的生物治疗在临床应用中的地位日渐突出,其中CD4+CD25+Foxp3+调节T细胞(CD4+CD25+Foxp3+regulatory T cell,Treg)在抑制肿瘤免疫方面起着重要作用,文章就其近年来在肿瘤免疫领域的研究进展作一综述.     

缺血性脑卒中患者阿司匹林抵抗现象及处理策略

阿司匹林作为缺血性脑血管病的一级和二级预防用药，广受关注。然而长期服用阿司匹林的患者仍会发生动脉血栓形成事件，因此本文就阿司匹林抵抗的概念、发生机制、检测方法、预防措施及其在缺血性脑血管病中的临床意义加以综述。     

音乐疗法在围手术期护理中的应用研究

目的：探讨音乐疗法在围手术期护理中的作用。方法：选择在我院实施局麻手术患者120例，随机分为观察组和对照组，两组均进行常规护理，观察组同时在术前、术中、术后收听自己喜欢的音乐。对两组焦虑水平、术中麻醉药用量和术后疼痛程度进行比较。结果：观察组术前SAS评分和焦虑发生率均明显低于对照组（P〈0．05），而术后两组无显著性差异（P〉0．05）；观察组术中咪唑安定使用量明显少于对照组（P〈0．05），利多卡因使用量也少于对照组，但无显著性差异（P〉0．05）；观察组术后疼痛分级明显低于对照组（P〈0．01）。结论：在同手术期护理中应用音乐疗法，可以减轻患者焦虑、减少麻醉药用量，缓解疼痛，促进康复。     

Bioelectrical behaviour of hypoxic human neocortical tissue under the influence of nimodipine and dimethyl sulfoxide

Nimodipine and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) have been shown to affect electrophysiological responses in rodent brain tissue in an vitro model of hypoxia. In the present study, the same agents were now examined for their effects on human neocortical brain slices under repeated hypoxic conditions. DMSO (0.4%), with and without addition of nimodipine (40 micromol/l), did not increase the latency of anoxic depolarization (AD). This finding is not in line with our previous observations of DMSO effects, with and without nimodipine, on brain slices of guinea pigs. AD latency was significantly longer in human neocortical brain slices compared with hippocampal slices of rodents even without any pharmacological influence. A possible acute effect of DMSO-nimodipine may therefore be masked by an interspecies difference of hypoxia resistance.     

上颌窦提升在上颌后牙区萎缩牙槽嵴牙种植术中的应用

目的：探讨上颌窦提升术对上颌后牙区萎缩牙槽嵴患者种植义齿修复的临床应用价值。方法：56例患者植入196枚种植体，患者平均年龄60．6岁。将自体松质骨(Spongiosa)与Bio-OSS混合进行上颌窦提升术，根据情况一期或二期植入种植体。种植体植入后至少6个月，选用适当的上部修复体进行义齿修复。结果：上颌窦提升术后或／和种植体植入术后，创口愈合良好，未见种植体松动或脱落，供骨区和种植术区均未见并发症。术后12个月PTVs最小为-5，X线检查种植体周垂直骨吸收均不超过1mm。种植体全部稳定地行使功能。结论：应用上颌窦提升术对上颌后牙区萎缩牙槽嵴患者进行种植义齿修复有广阔的应用前景。     

Comparison of sonography and magnetic resonance imaging for the diagnosis of partial tears of finger extensor tendons in rheumatoid arthritis

OBJECTIVE: Finger extensor tenosynovitis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may lead to partial and eventually to complete tendon tears. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of sonography (SG) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize partial tendon tears. METHODS: Twenty-one RA patients with finger extensor tenosynovitis for more than 12 months underwent SG, MRI and surgical inspection, the latter being the gold standard. RESULTS: For partial tears, sensitivity and specificity were 0.27 and 0.83 for MRI, and 0.33 and 0.89 for SG, respectively. Positive and negative predictive values were 0.35 and 0.78 for MRI, and 0.50 and 0.80 for SG, respectively. Accuracy was 0.69 for MRI and 0.75 for SG. CONCLUSION: For visualization of partial finger extensor tendon tears in RA patients, SG performs slightly better than MRI, but both techniques are at present not sensitive enough to be used in daily practice.     

Multispectral analysis of magnetic resonance images

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging systems produce spatial distribution estimates of proton density, relaxation time, and flow, in a two dimensional matrix form that is analogous to that of the image data obtained from multispectral imaging satellites. Advanced NASA satellite image processing offers sophisticated multispectral analysis of MR images. Spin echo and inversion recovery pulse sequence images were entered in a digital format compatible with satellite images and accurately registered pixel by pixel. Signatures of each tissue class were automatically determined using both supervised and unsupervised classification. Overall tissue classification was obtained in the form of a theme map. In MR images of the brain, for example, the classes included CSF, gray matter, white matter, subcutaneous fat, muscle, and bone. These methods provide an efficient means of identifying subtle relationships in a multi-image MR study.     

Advances in in vivo imaging of serotonergic neurons in neuropsychiatric disorders

Alterations of central serotonergic neurotransmission, particularly changes in the presynaptically located serotonin transporter (SERT) availability, are thought to be one of the major pathomechanisms of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Modern neuroimaging techniques such as single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography employ radiolabeled tracers, which bind to SERT, and thus, allow detection of cerebral SERT availability in vivo. We review SERT imaging studies in patients with depression, anxiety disorders, eating disorders and patients with neurological diseases. We furthermore elucidate the potential of SERT imaging techniques in estimating the effect of selective serotonin reuptake-inhibitors.
