部分性脾栓塞术的临床应用：——附37例报告

应用部分脾栓塞术(PSE)治疗难治性原发性血小板减少性紫癜27例,血栓性血小板减少性紫癜1例;难治性再生障碍性贫血2例;Evan's 综合症2例;系统性红斑狼疮合并血小板减少性紫癜2例;继发性脾亢3例.获完全缓解者24例(64.9%);部分缓解者8例(21.6%),总有效率为86.S%.24例获完全缓解者18例追踪1年,6例复发,复发率为33.3%.与25例切脾对照组及文献报道比较,差异无显著性(P>0.05).本文对 PSE 术后外周血小板的变化进行讨论,并与脾切除作了对比。本文还对血小板破坏场、栓塞范围和方法等影响疗效的因素进行了探讨.作者认为 PSE 术可作为脾切除的替代术.     

包裹胰岛微囊的物理性能研究

用３％海藻酸钠及２．２％ＣａＣｌ＿２所制备的微囊在高流速及高浓度的蔗糖溶液冲击下未见破裂，且微囊包裹活细胞经过二小时的剧烈搅拌，亦无损漏。改进法所制备的微囊具有良好的机械强度，其物理性能已达到临床进行包膜胰岛移植治疗糖尿病的要求。     

Natural history of atopic dermatitis and its relationship to serum total immunoglobulin E in a population-based birth cohort study

We investigated the natural history of atopic dermatitis (AD) in a population-based birth cohort and assessed whether children at risk of visible eczema at 5 years of age can be identified from total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels measured at 8, 12 and 18 months. AD data collected included a whole body examination for visible eczema at 49 months (4 years) and 61 months (5 years) of age and parent completed questionnaire data throughout their early lives. Children were divided into four groups based on their natural history of early AD: persistent (AD at 1, 6, 18, 30 and 42 months, n  = 34), intermittent early onset (before 18  months of age, n  = 495), intermittent late onset (18–42 months of age, n  = 273) and unaffected ( n  = 429). Visible eczema at 5 years of age was present in 12.2% (117/957) (95% confidence interval [CI] 10.1–14.3%) of the children. Levels of total IgE at 8, 12 and 18 months of age were associated with early onset of AD, but not with AD of later onset. For all four natural history groups, the geometric mean total IgE at 12 months was higher in those who subsequently had visible eczema than those who did not. However, the degree of overlap was such that total IgE at 12 months of age was a poor predictor of eczema at age five. A cutoff point of 78 kU/l had the highest positive predictive value for visible eczema at 5 years of age of 28.6%, with a sensitivity of 12% and specificity of 95%.     

医院联合体的构建及成效研究

介绍了浙江省温州医学院附属第一医院和温州市第八医院构建联合体的过程,阐明在卫生改革不断深入的形势下,医院联合体的组建既符合卫生改革的总体精神,也提高了医疗卫生资源的利用率,是我国卫生改革的一种走向,也是拆"围墙"打破各种隶属、所有制,优化卫生资源的必然趋势.它的最终目的是有利于盘活存量,资源共享,提高效益,有利于为人民提供优质医疗卫生服务[1],同时也为浙江省<深化医药卫生体制改革若干意见>的稳步实施提供了生动的案例,为行政主管部门的决策提供了借鉴.     

Avoidance of Nitrous Oxide for Patients Undergoing Major Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Nitrous oxide is widely used in anesthesia, often administered at an inspired concentration around 70%. Although nitrous oxide interferes with vitamin B12, folate metabolism, and deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis and prevents the use of high inspired oxygen concentrations, the consequences of these effects are unclear.

Methods: Patients having major surgery expected to last at least 2 h were randomly assigned to nitrous oxide-free (80% oxygen, 20% nitrogen) or nitrous oxide-based (70% N2O, 30% oxygen) anesthesia. Patients and observers were blind to group identity. The primary endpoint was duration of hospital stay. Secondary endpoints included duration of intensive care stay and postoperative complications; the latter included severe nausea and vomiting, and the following major complications: pneumonia, pneumothorax, pulmonary embolism, wound infection, myocardial infarction, venous thromboembolism, stroke, awareness, and death within 30 days of surgery.

Results: Of 3,187 eligible patients, 2,050 consenting patients were recruited. Patients in the nitrous oxide-free group had significantly lower rates of major complications (odds ratio, 0.71; 95% confidence interval, 0.56-0.89; P = 0.003) and severe nausea and vomiting (odds ratio, 0.40; 95% confidence interval, 0.31-0.51; P < 0.001), but median duration of hospital stay did not differ substantially between groups (7.0 vs. 7.1 days; P = 0.06). Among patients admitted to the intensive care unit postoperatively, those in the nitrous oxide-free group were more likely to be discharged from the unit on any given day than those in the nitrous oxide group (hazard ratio, 1.35; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-1.73; P = 0.02).
