Potential contribution of nuclear factor-kappaB to cerebral vasospasm after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rabbits.

Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) plays a key role in inflammation, which is involved in the development of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In the present study, we assessed the potential role of NF-kappaB in regulation of cerebral vasospasm. Nuclear factor-kappaB DNA-binding activity was measured in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) treated with hemolysate and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC, 80 micromol/L), an inhibitor of NF-kappaB. Forty-two rabbits were divided into three groups: control, SAH, and PDTC groups (n=14 for each group). The caliber of the basilar artery was evaluated. Nuclear factor-kappaB DNA-binding activity and the gene expression levels of cytokines and adhesion molecules in the basilar artery were measured. Immunohistochemical study was performed to assess the expression and localization of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, and myeloperoxidase (MPO). It was observed that NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity was significantly increased by treatment with hemolysate in cultured VSCMs, but this increase was suppressed by pretreatment with PDTC. Severe vasospasm was observed in the SAH group, which was attenuated in the PDTC group. Subarachnoid hemorrhage could induce increases of NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity and the gene expression levels of TNF-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, ICAM-1, and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1, which were reduced in the PDTC group. Immunohistochemical study demonstrated that the expression levels of TNF-alpha, ICAM-1, and MPO were all increased in the SAH group, but these increases were attenuated in the PDTC group. Our results suggest that NF-kappaB is activated in the arterial wall after SAH, which potentially leads to vasospasm development through induction of inflammatory response.

病案质量整体管理的做法

病案质量是衡量临床工作质量的重要标志。目前，因重效益轻质量、重科研轻临床现象突出，致病案质量有所下降。因此，应加强病案质量整体管理，建立医院、科室、个人三级病案质量控制体系；以病案内涵质量为核心内容，制定完善科学的病案质量评价标准；加强岗前培训，抓人员素质的提高；强化病案过程质量管理和终末质量管理，重视病案质量信息反馈作用。     

Validation of the Taiwan Birth Registry using obstetric records.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Birth certificates are a major source of population-based data often used in maternal and child health research, but their value depends upon the level of accuracy of the data. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of the birth registry data in Taiwan. METHODS: Obstetric records of a total of 2779 infants born at a municipal hospital in Taipei between 1995 and 1997 were abstracted and linked to the Taiwan Birth Registry (TBR). Concordance was presented by agreement percentages for various birth characteristics including gender, birth order, birth weight, and gestational age. Concordance was further assessed using Cohen's k and sensitivity/specificity for both birth weight and gestational age, with both variables categorized according to their customary definitions. RESULTS: Missing data for specific items in the TBR ranged from 0% (gender) to 1.6% (birth order). The birth registry accurately reported all 4 selected items, with the highest and lowest concordance percentage noted for gender (99.0%) and gestational age (88.3%), respectively. The level of agreement indicated by the Cohen's k statistic ranged from 0.92 to 0.96 for birth weight and gestational age when both variables were treated as categorical variables. CONCLUSIONS: The TBR showed a low rate of missing information and high levels of validity for the elements frequently used in maternal and child health research in Taiwan.

Interaction of misonidazole, hyperthermia, and irradiation in a C3H mammary carcinoma and its surrounding skin in vivo.

The interaction of irradiation, Misonidazole (MISO), and hyperthermia was studied in a C3H mouse mammary carcinoma and its surrounding skin in vivo. MISO (0.5-1.0 mg/g) was injected 30 min before irradiation. Hyperthermia (41.5 degrees-43.5 degrees C for 60 min) was given either simultaneously, 0.5 hr, or 4 hr after X rays. The results were evaluated as the radiation dose to achieve tumor control (TCD50) or moist desquamation of the skin (DD50) in half of the treated animals. A therapeutic gain was found when the enhancement in tumors were greater than that found in skin. The combination of simultaneous heat and irradiation caused great enhancement in radiation response, but with no therapeutic gain. A slightly lower enhancement of the damage in both tissues was found with a 30 min interval between irradiation and hyperthermia, whereas heat 4 hr after X rays gave a small, but significant therapeutic gain. MISO significantly enhanced the response in tumors but not in skin. Combined trimodality treatment with MISO, irradiation, and hyperthermia resulted in enhancement ratios up to 15, dependent on temperature, radiation-heat interval, and to a lesser extent the MISO dose. The enhancement was for all schedules most pronounced in the tumors, resulting in an improved therapeutic effect. The combination of MISO and hyperthermia may be a valuable addition to radiotherapy, especially if heat and irradiation can be applied with close interval and with one of the modalities given selectively to the tumor.
