对诊断PADAM的血清游离睾酮界限值的初探

目的探寻诊断中老年男子部分雄激素缺乏综合征(PADAM)血清游离睾酮(FT)的界限值。方法根据60例45岁以上健康男性完成伊斯坦布尔症状量表(ISS)与视听性刺激(AVSS)时阴茎勃起监测结果进行分组,计算AVSS勃起功能正常组推算的游离睾酮(CFT)值的参考范围。结果AVSS勃起功能正常组CFT的中位数为0．37(0．20～0．52)nmol/L,异常组的中位数为0．25(0．12～0．40)nmol/L,z=2．25,P＜0．05,差别有显著性意义。两组性功能症状的差别也有极显著性意义(P＜0．01)。CFT的界限值是0．20nmol/L。结论研究用ISS和AVSS勃起功能正常对象的血清FT值,可为诊断PADAM建立界限值。     

妇幼卫生专业毕业生的追踪调查

20 0 2年 9～ 1 2月对中山大学公共卫生学院妇幼卫生专业的毕业生及用人单位进行了信函追踪调查。结果表明 :总体而言 ,该系学生思想素质、业务水平、工作能力均较强 ,受到用人单位的一致好评。该系学生保健服务能力是强项 ,体现了“以保健为中心”的办学思想。但同时也发现妇幼系的培养模式、课程设置、教学方法均存在一定问题 ,最突出的是临床动手能力较差 ,其次为社区工作能力、组织管理能力、社交能力相对不足 ,创新能力较差 ,所以教学改革势在必行

Analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor and activated epidermal growth factor receptor expression in pituitary adenomas and carcinomas.

Epidermal growth factor receptor plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many malignancies. Various growth factors, including epidermal growth factor receptor, have been shown to influence pituitary tumor growth and differentiation. To analyze the role of epidermal growth factor receptor in pituitary tumor development, we examined normal pituitaries (n=8), pituitary adenomas (n=158), and pituitary carcinomas (n=7) for expression of epidermal growth factor receptor protein and messenger RNA using tissue microarrays and RT-PCR. We also examined (a) the expression of phospho-epidermal growth factor receptor, the activated form of epidermal growth factor receptor, in pituitary tumors and normal pituitaries by immunohistochemistry and (b) the effects on epidermal growth factor receptor expression of treating pituitary cells (HP75 cell line) with epidermal growth factor. Epidermal growth factor receptor and the phosphorylated variant expression were present in normal pituitary cells. Epidermal growth factor receptor messenger RNA was also detected in normal pituitaries, pituitary adenomas, and carcinomas by in situ hybridization and RT-PCR. Most pituitary adenomas showed expression of epidermal growth factor receptor and the phosphorylated variant. Nonfunctional adenomas showed higher levels of expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (76 vs 34%) and of phospho-epidermal growth factor receptor (26 vs 8%) as compared to functional adenomas. Five of seven pituitary carcinomas showed strong expression of both epidermal growth factor receptor and phospho-epidermal growth factor receptor. When a human pituitary cell line (HP75) was cultured in the presence of epidermal growth factor receptor, there was an increase in the levels of both epidermal growth factor receptor and phospho-epidermal growth factor receptor after 5 h of treatment, thus confirming that epidermal growth factor receptor signaling was active in pituitary tumors. These results indicate that activated epidermal growth factor receptor is expressed in pituitary adenomas and carcinomas. Higher levels in pituitary carcinomas suggest a role in pituitary tumor progression.     

重氮乳胶反向凝集试验与乳凝试验在血吸虫病临床诊断中的应用研究

Inhibitory effect of glycyrrhiza uralensis fish and chelidonium majus L on gastrocarcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N′-nitron-N-nitrosoguanidine

In order to investigate the antagonistic effect of Glycyrrhiza Uralensis Fish (GUF) and Chelidonium maJus L (CML) on gastrccarcinogenesis induced by MNNG in Wastar rats, we treated the rats with MNNG alone (group 1) and with MNNG plus GUF and CML (group 2 and 3) respectively. The incidence of infiltrating adenocarcinoma of the glandular stomach and duodenum in group 2 was significantly lower than that in group 1 (26.7% vs. 67.8%). The differentiation and aggressivenees of carcinomas occured in group 2 were much better and mild than those in group 1. Present study also demonstrated that the inhibitory effect of CML on proliferation of human stomach carcinoma cell line MGC-803 was very remarkable; in addition, GUF and CML were able to antagonise the mutagenic activation of MNNG. These results suggest that GUF and CML may be empoyed in prevention of gastric carcinoma.     

Phase II study of 10-ethyl-10-deaza-aminopterin (10-EdAM; CGP 30 694) for stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer

Summary Thirty-one patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were treated with intravenous 10-EdAM on a weekly basis. The starting dose was 80 mg/m², with subsequent doses adjusted depending on evidence of toxicity. There were 20 men and 11 women with a median age of 58 years (range, 33–75). Response was evaluated in 30 patients, 5 with evaluable but not measurable tumors and 25 with measurable indicator lesions. There were no complete remissions; 3 patients achieved partial remission. Nine patients had a minor response, 6 showed no change, and 12 had progressive disease. Median survival for all 31 patients was 43 weeks (range, 12–65+). During the first 3-week period, the 10-EdAM dose was reduced or withheld in 19 patients (because of stomatitis in 12, SGPT elevation in 3, skin rash in 2, and granulocytopenia in 2), escalated in 11 patients, and unchanged in 1 patient. A mean of 34–88 mg/m²of 10-EdAM (median, 50) was given per week during the first 5-week period. Myelotoxicity was infrequent and there was no significant nephrotoxicity. Considering the modest side effects of this treatment and the conservative dose-modification schedule which mandated substantial dose reductions, we conclude that 10-EdAM is a promising antitumor agent for NSCLC.     

A study on plasma norepinephrine and epinephrine levels in TCM liver syndromes.

The levels of plasma norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E) were determined by HPLC in 220 patients with various TCM liver syndromes, and in 96 healthy subjects as controls. The plasma NE and E contents were higher in patients with liver excess syndromes, including Ganqi Yujie (GQYJ [symbol: see text]) syndrome, Ganyang Shangkang (GYSK [symbol: see text]) syndrome, Ganhuo Shangyan (GHSY [symbol: see text]) syndrome, and Ganyang Huafeng (GYHF [symbol: see text]) syndrome; while they were lower in patients with liver deficiency syndromes, including Ganqixu (GQX [symbol: see text]) syndrome, Ganxuexu (GXX [symbol: see text]) syndrome, and Ganyinxu (GYX [symbol: see text]) syndrome. Futhermore, when Ganshen Yinxu (GSYX [symbol: see text]) syndrome was turned into GYSK and then into GYHF, the plasma NE and E contents increased in order of precedence; while when GQYJ was turned into Ganyu Pixu (GYPX [symbol: see text]) syndrome, both NE and E contents decreased. The results suggest that the plasma NE and E contents are reliable objective parameters for the study of pathophysiological basis of the liver excess and liver deficiency syndromes, and the liver-kidney and liver-spleen interrelated syndromes.
