Allergic contact dermatitis from grasses

This study attempts to demonstrate the existence of allergic contact dermatitis from grass, and to develop a patch test series to screen patients with grass intolerance. 6 common grass species from lawns and military training areas were collected. Solvent extracts of polar. non-polar and volatile fractions were prepared and used for patch testing in 20 control subjects and 46 patients with a history of grass intolerance. The 20 control had negative responses to patch testing. 5 out of 46 patients had positive patch tests to Axonopus compressus (carpet grass). Ischaenmum muticum (sea-shore centipede grass). Imperata evlindrica (lalang). Panicum maximum (Guinea grass) and Pennisetum purpureum (elephant grass). Reactions to the non-polar fraction for all 5 species were noted. This study demonstrates the existence of allergic contact dermatitis from various common species of grass. In our series, this is seen in 11% of those with a history of grass intolerance.     

Jugular foramen neuromas: a review of 14 cases

We present 14 patients with jugular foramen neuromas treated in the professorial unit at the National Hospital, Queen Square, in the 20-year period from 1969 to 1989. The growth characteristics and associated symptomatology of these tumors are variable, and often they do not give rise to a typical jugular foramen syndrome, making differentiation from other low cerebellopontine angle tumors difficult and occasionally impossible. One tumor presented mainly in the neck, but the remaining 13 were predominantly intracranial and their anatomical relationships as defined radiologically determined the surgical approach used. Nine tumors were resected using a posterior fossa approach, three required a combined posterior fossa and neck dissection, and one a combined supratentorial and infratentorial craniotomy. The aim of operation was total excision of the tumor, which was achieved in 10 patients; the remaining three all suffered recurrence. There was no operative mortality and little long-term disability.     

负载型丝光沸石催化剂的催化性能研究

运用二元碱氮置换吸附红外光谱法、分子筛孔径分布测定技术、XPS技术,考察了丝光沸石表面酸性与孔结构的相互关系、钯在丝光沸石上分布情况和价态及其与沸石的相互作用。结果表明,随着丝光沸石脱铝程度的增加,表面出现大量不规整晶格,存在较多的次级孔道。强质子酸中心主要分布在它的“外表面”。钯在其表面富集,并与“外表面”上的质子酸中心协同作用,促进了轻质烷烃异构化反应。     

Outcome of frozen embryo replacement cycles following elective cryopreservation of all embryos in women at risk of developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

Aim: Our aim was to compare the outcome in subsequent frozen embryo replacement cycles in four groups of patients who had elective cryopreservation of all their embryos because they were considered to be at increased risk of developing severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Design: Sixty-two (91%) of 68 IVF cycles (68 patients) in which elective cryopreservation of all embryos was performed were analyzed. All patients continued on the GnRH agonist, buserelin, after oocyte recovery until the onset of vaginal bleeding. Frozen embryo replacement occurred in a hormone replacement cycle that started either on day 3 of the withdrawal bleed (group I;N=15) or after serum estradiol levels had fallen to <100 pmol/L (group II;N=16). The other patients commenced a frozen embryo replacement cycle several months later in either a hormone replacement (group III;N=15) or a natural (group IV;N=16) cycle. Results: Two patients developed severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. There were no significant differences among the four groups regarding demographic variables, the dose of hMG used, and the clinical outcome. There was a higher but not significantly different clinical pregnancy rate in group I (26.7%), compared to group II (12.5%), group III (13.3%), and group IV (18.8%). Conclusions: Several options exist for the timing and protocol used for frozen embryo replacement in patients who had elective cryopreservation for the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, none of which was found to be clearly superior in this observational report.Presented at the 1994 Annual Conference of the American Fertility Society.     

日本血吸虫感染小鼠脾细胞IL—2及IFN—γ动态观察

本文观察８ｗｋ龄Ｃ５７ＢＬ／６小鼠感染日本血吸虫尾蚴后不同时期脾细胞经ＳＥＡ或ＣｏｎＡ刺激，体外诱生的ＩＬ－２和ＩＦＮ－γ活性变化。结果表明两种细胞因子活性均在感染后第４－６ｗｋ开始上升，第６—８ｗｋ达高峰，第１２—１４ｗｋ恢复至感染前水平。ＩＦＮ－γ高峰时间略先于ＩＬ－２。非特异性刺激原诱生组和特异性刺激原诱生组各阶段细胞因子活性动态基本一致，前组活性高于后组。提示ＩＦＮ－γ与ＩＬ－２活性与血吸虫卵肉芽肿的诱导、成熟与维持有密切关系。     

蛛网膜下腔注射神经降压素对大鼠血压和心率的影响

本文研究了蛛网膜下腔注射神经降压素（ｎｅｕｒｏｔｅｎｓｉｎ，ＮＴ）对大鼠血压和心率的影响，结果表明：注射ＮＴ后血压立即下降，继而有所回升，但不及正常水平，然后再次降低，持续６０ｍｉｎ；心率无明显改变。Ｈ１受体阻断剂苯海拉明能部分阻断ＮＴ的降血压效应，Ｈ２受体阻断剂甲氰咪胍无翻转作用。注射组胺释放剂Ｃｏｍｐｏｕｎｄ４８／８０使血压下降，待血压恢复正常水平后，再注射ＮＴ，其降压效应减弱。结果提示：蛛网     

两种后牙根管预备方法的临床效果比较

目的 :评估 2种后牙根管预备方法的临床效果。方法 :采用机用镍钛扩大锉 (ProFile)和手用不锈钢扩大锉 (K file)扩大后牙根管 ,并对 2组病例术后疼痛以及充填情况加以比较。结果 :发现机用镍钛扩大锉扩大后牙根管 ,具有去除根管感染物质彻底 ,根管形态保持良好 ,速度快 ,术后疼痛率较低的优点 ,但易出现断针。而手用不锈钢扩大锉扩大后牙根管速度较慢 ,术后疼痛率略高 ,但不易出现断针 ,操作上容易掌握。结论 :2种后牙根管方法都有优缺点 ,可结合起来使用。     

矽肺动物模型全肺灌洗治疗的病理观察

通过对动物模型实验治疗的病理观察，评价全肺大容量灌洗治疗矽肺的效果，并优选灌洗液。对４０只家兔和１０只幼猪经ＳｉＯ２染尘处理后，各随机分为药物组、盐水组和对照组。４～５周后施行全肺大容量灌洗。治疗后３～５个月处死各组动物，进行病理双盲检查。经统计学秩和检验，兔与猪各组肺矽结节纤维化级别分布的差异有非常显著意义（Ｐ＜０．００５）。经卡方检验，各灌洗组的纤维化程度与对照组相比，差异亦有非常显著意义（Ｐ＜０．０１）。灌洗液中药与盐水比，Ｐ＜０．０５；盐水与西药比，Ｐ＜０．０５。兔和猪矽肺各灌洗组的效果明显优于对照组。灌洗液中药优于盐水，盐水又优于西药     

急性高血压脑出血的治疗体会

本文对62例急性高血压脑出血进行了着重于治疗的分析。脑出血病严重威胁患者生命,死亡率高,病残率高。治疗的关键是绝对卧床,避免搬动;积极治疗及控制脑水肿、降低颅内压;头置冰帽以减低脑耗氧量,减轻脑水肿,促进脑细胞功能的恢复;加强护理,预防及治疗并发症是提高患者生存时间及存活率的重要环节;对出血量多、患者一般情况较好者,作者主张手术治疗,清除颅内血肿,可减轻症状,提高存活率及降低病残率。
