Pulmonary Lophomonas blattarum infection in patients with kidney allograft transplantation

The aim of the study was to analyse the clinical manifestation and management of pulmonary Lophomonas blattarum infection in four allograft transplantation recipients retrospectively. Four patients with pulmonary L. blattarum infection were diagnosed by using Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) examination. Their clinical manifestation and management are summarized. Four cases of pulmonary L. blattarum were found during the period from the second month to the third month after transplantation. Concurring infection by other pathogens was found in three of them. Common initial symptoms included fever (>38 degrees C) without cough and breathlessness. Lower lobe shadowing could be found on chest X-ray. Body temperature decreased to the normal range in three patients and to 37.5 degrees C in the other one, after intravenous injection of metronidazole and tapering immunosuppressant. Radiological examination confirmed improved health condition of the patients afterwards. Two patients received repeated FOB and only dead L. blattarum was found. Pulmonary L. blattarum infection in allograft transplant recipients carry relatively obscure initial symptoms. Possible L. blattarum infection needs to be screened in post-transplantation pulmonary infection patients with similar symptoms, especially in those who respond poorly to anti-infection treatment. Microscopic examination of BAL fluid can help to identify pulmonary L. blattarum infection and metronidazole is an ideal treatment choice.     

Cardiac myxoma with glandular component: case report

Cardiac myxoma has varying clinical presentation, uncertain histogenesis and debatable immunohis- tochemical profile. Glandular epithelial differentiation is a rare phenomenon, but glandular elements are known to be present in cardiac myxoma as an intrinsic component of the tumor. We present a case of cardiac myxoma having focal glandular differentiation, with special reference to the morphologic features and immunohistochemical profiles.

塞来昔布对大鼠心脏移植急性排斥反应的抑制作用

目的观察塞来昔布对大鼠心脏移植急性排斥反应的抑制作用。方法以SD大鼠为供者,Wistar大鼠为受者,进行40次腹部异位心脏移植。采用HE染色和原位末端标记(TUN EL)技术检测移植心切片,进行排斥反应的病理分级并计算移植心肌细胞的凋亡指数(AI)。结果移植心的细胞凋亡主要发生于心肌细胞;移植后第3、5d,塞来昔布治疗组心肌细胞凋亡指数分别为:1.03±0.42和3.28±2.42;对照组分别为2.35±1.51和11.35±3.46;两组比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.001)。结论细胞凋亡是心脏移植急性排斥中组织损伤的重要机制;塞来昔布能明显抑制心肌细胞凋亡。     

慢性阻塞性肺病患者营养与餐后低氧的关系

目的研究慢性阻塞性肺病(COPD)患者的营养状况与餐后低氧的关系.方法51例COPD急性加重期后的患者连续监测就餐前后SpO2,同时记录饮食情况并换算为各营养素的量.结果营养不良组COPD患者餐后SpO2低于餐前,降低幅度超过3%(P＜0.05),进餐时间相对延长,营养物质摄入减少.SpO2变化与单位体质量总热量的摄入呈负相关(P＜0.05).结论重度COPD患者的营养状况可能与患者进餐后发生的缺氧、低氧血症有关,在营养支持中应考虑采取适当措施干预就餐引起的相关低氧血症的发生.     

中草药熏洗治疗慢性顽固性湿疹

目的:观察中草药熏洗治疗慢性顽固性湿疹的临床疗效。方法:采用中草药熏洗治疗。结果:经采用本法治疗的慢性顽固性阴囊湿疹、女阴湿疹及肛部湿疹等全部治愈。结论:中草药熏洗治疗慢性顽固性湿疹,在临床上有实用价值,而且其药源广泛、价格便宜,值得研究和推广。     

阿尔茨海默病患者脑白质损害与认知功能的关系

目的用磁共振扩散张量成像(DTI)研究阿尔茨海默病(AD)患者脑白质损害的特点及其与认知功能改变的相关性。方法对16例AD患者和12名年龄及性别相当的健康老年人行DTI、T1液体衰减反转恢复序列(FLAIR)及T2-FLAIR检查,测量胼胝体膝部和压部、内囊前肢和后肢、额颞顶枕叶白质的部分各向异性分数值(FA)和平均弥散度(MD),分析FA、MD值与简易精神状态量表(MMSE)评分之间的相关关系。结果AD患者胼胝体压部、额叶、顶叶、颞叶FA值分别为0.602±0.043、0.270±0.034、0.294±0.043、0.302±0.032,与健康老人组相比显著下降(P<0.05),且与MMSE评分呈正相关关系,而内囊前后肢、枕叶、胼胝体膝部的FA值则无明显变化(P>0.05);胼胝体压部、顶叶白质的MD值分别为(0.918±0.029)、(0.826±0.015)×10-9m2/s,与健康老人组相比显著升高(P<0.01),且与MMSE评分呈负相关,而内囊前后肢、额叶、颞叶、枕叶和胼胝体膝部的MD值则无明显变化(P>0.05)。结论AD患者表现为脑白质的选择性损害,且损害程度与认知功能密切相关;这种选择性损害反映了AD病理机制中皮质-皮质及皮质-皮质下联系的丢失;DTI技术可以用来监测疾病的进展情况及评价AD治疗药物的临床疗效。     

臂丛神经卡压综合征的诊治

目的探讨位于臂丛神经及其前中斜角肌周围的神经卡压综合征的特点及其诊治方法。方法2003年7月～2006年1月,采用门诊收集病例,根据病情轻重分组,分别采用药物、局部封闭及手术方法治疗179例确诊为臂丛神经和(或)其属支卡压综合征的患者。其中采用药物、手法治疗89例；注射治疗74例,其中需要第二次注射32例；手术治疗16例,同时或分别进行双侧手术2例,需要第二次手术者1例。结果128例患者得到1个月～2年5个月随访。其中,药物手法治疗55例,症状均有不同程度改善或能维持现状。局部注射治疗58例(其中接受第二次注射者24例),2例出现心跳减缓,其余病例无并发症发生,VAS评分情况：1分2例,2分16例,3分20例,4分12例,5分3例,6分3例,7分2例；第二次注射结果：2分5例,3分16例,4分3例。手术治疗15例,其中10例术后症状得到明显改善,恢复工作。结论臂丛神经及其属支涉及其周围众多神经,可产生众多症状；明确病因后,治疗上以保守治疗为主,效果欠佳者采用手术治疗,均可取得较好疗效。     

亚甲蓝甘油合剂封闭治疗三叉神经痛108例

目的观察亚甲蓝甘油合剂封闭治疗三叉神经痛的临床疗效并探讨其治疗机制。方法按国际头面痛学会分类委员会确定的诊断标准,108例原发性三叉神经患者随机分为两组:A组为亚甲蓝甘油合剂组(n=54),B组为单纯甘油合剂组(n=54);采用徐贵印推荐的三维测角穿刺半月神经节进行封闭治疗,对治疗后1周、3个月和2年分别进行疗效评判和随访观察。结果两组治疗后1周、3个月优良率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),两年后优良率比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);两组并发症没有明显差异,2例出现视力下降,3例因解剖变异未能穿刺成功,仅在卵圆孔周围进行了注射,外加眶下孔以及骸孔封闭。结论亚甲蓝甘油合剂用于治疗三叉神经痛远期疗效优于单纯甘油合剂,且亚甲蓝对神经未见明显损害(经2年随访)。
