超声对胰腺移植术后的监测作用

目的探讨二维超声和彩色多普勒血流显像（cDFI）对移植胰腺的功能和术后并发症的监测作用。方法用彩色多普勒超声观察6例移植胰腺的形态和血流动力学变化情况。结果（1）功能正常的移植胰腺在术后形态正常，体积偏大，主胰管内径正常，实质回声较正常胰腺略高，动脉PSV13～64cm/s，R10.44～0.68，P10.67～2.33。（2）2例出现急性排异和1例出现移植胰腺炎的移植胰腺周边出现低或无回声区，实质回声明显减低，分布不均。1例急性重度排异的RI值超过0.9，而另1例急性轻度排异RI值小于0.7。1例移植胰腺炎RI值超过0.9，PI值超过4.0。结论CDFI作为一种无创的检查技术对胰腺移植术后的监测和诊治具有积极意义。     

骨桥蛋白在人脑动静脉畸形的表达及意义

目的研究骨桥蛋白(OPN)在脑动静脉畸形(CAVM)的血管组织及其在放射、栓塞治疗后血管病理变化中的表达。方法采用免疫组化方法检测42例CAVM病理标本及对照组10例内减压手术所获脑组织血管中OPN的表达。结果26例无术前治疗史的畸形血管组织中22例有OPN的表达,主要见于CAVM的静脉部分,在粥样硬化样病变的动脉处也有表达。对照组脑组织的血管中未见OPN的表达;有伽玛刀治疗史的5例中,2例在早、中期放射反应的动脉中可见OPN的明显表达;在经历栓塞治疗的11例中,7例在新生内膜组织或异物巨细胞中有强阳性表达。结论人CAVM血管组织中多有OPN的表达,这可能是其适应于适应血流动力学状态而具有的血管重塑的表现,并可能在放射及栓塞治疗后的血管重塑中发挥重要作用。     

原发性恶性骨肿瘤的治疗进展

Benign childhood epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BCECTS): early onset of seizures is associated with poorer response to initial treatment.

AIM: Benign childhood epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BCECTS) is the most common idiopathic partial epilepsy in children. Treatment attitudes remain a controversial issue. We examine features that could suggest refractoriness at onset. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 144 children with BCECTS diagnosed at the Division of Pediatric Neurology, Asan Medical Center, from March 1, 1995, to April 30, 2002 and treated with AEDs. The patients were subdivided into two groups according to the number of antiepileptic drugs used for effective seizure control. RESULTS: Of the 144 patients, 75 were male and 69 were female, with a mean age at seizure-onset of 7.2 +/- 2.3 years (range, 2.1-14.3 years); 119 children were taking one antiepileptic drug (AED) (Group A), and 25 were taking more than one (Group B). There were no significant group differences in female-to-male ratio, prescribed AEDs, number of seizures before the start of treatment, interval between seizure-onset and start of treatment, presence of secondarily generalized seizures, or presence of bilateral EEG abnormalities. The groups differed however, in mean age at seizure onset (7.6 +/- 2.2 years versus 5.1 +/- 1.9 years, p < 0.05) and percentage of patients with seizure-onset before 3 years (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: When treated with AEDs, children with BCECTS usually respond well. However, an earlier onset of seizures is associated with more frequent seizures and initial refractoriness to medical treatment.

Angiopoietin1/Tie2 and VEGF/Flk1 induced by MSC treatment amplifies angiogenesis and vascular stabilization after stroke.

Bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) increase vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and promote angiogenesis after stroke. Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) and its receptor Tie2 mediate vascular integrity and angiogenesis as does VEGF and its receptors. In this study, we tested whether MSC treatment of stroke increases Ang1/Tie2 expression, and whether Ang1/Tie2 with VEGF/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) (Flk1), in combination, induced by MSCs enhances angiogenesis and vascular integrity. Male Wistar rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) and treated with or without MSCs. Marrow stromal cell treatment significantly decreased blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage and increased Ang1, Tie2, and occludin (a tight junction protein) expression in the ischemic border compared with MCAo control. To further test the mechanisms of MSC-induced angiogenesis and vascular stabilization, cocultures of MSCs with mouse brain endothelial cells (MBECs) or astrocytes were performed. Supernatant derived from MSCs cocultured with MBECs significantly increased MBEC expression of Ang1/Tie2 and Flk1 compared with MBEC alone. Marrow stromal cells cocultured with astrocytes also significantly increased astrocyte VEGF and Ang1/Tie2 expression compared with astrocyte culture alone. Conditioned media from MSCs alone, and media from cocultures of MSCs with astrocytes or MBECs, all significantly increased capillary tube-like formation of MBEC compared with control Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium media. Inhibition of Flk1 and/or Ang1 significantly decreased MSC-induced MBEC tube formation. Knockdown of Tie2 expression in MBECs significantly inhibited MSC-induced tube formation. Our data indicate MSC treatment of stroke promotes angiogenesis and vascular stabilization, which is at least partially mediated by VEGF/Flk1 and Ang1/Tie2.     

质子磁共振波谱对创伤后应激障碍患者海马神经元异常的诊断价值

目的 探讨质子磁共振波谱（1HMRS）在诊断创伤后应激障碍（post traumatic stress disorder，PTSD）患者海马神经元异常中的价值。方法 对19例PTSD患者及19例健康对照组行常规MRI和1HMRS检查。结果 PTSD患者MRI检查未出现信号的异常。19例患者两侧海马均显示NAA／Cr明显减低，与健康对照组相比，差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）；而患者两侧海马的Cho／Cr与健康对照组相比，差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论 1HMRS揭示了PTSD时海马存在着神经元的丢失或功能紊乱，而这些改变是构成PTSD的神经生物学基础之一。
