口腔黏膜下纤维性变S100蛋白表达

OBJECTIVE: To study the expression of S100 in oral submucose fibrosis(OSF). METHODS: Immunohistochemistry assay was performed on 10 cases of OSF, 10 cases of oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) and 8 cases of normal oral epithelium using monoclonal antibody against S100 protein. RESULTS: S100 did not express in the normal oral muscosal epithelium. The S100 positive nuclear staining was found in 50% of the OSF and OED cases, which was significantly higher than that in the normal oral epithelium (P < 0.05). But the positive staining in the OSF and OED cases had no difference (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: S100 expression is closely related to the development of OSF and OED. The positive staining expression in the OSF and OED cases is the same.     

LONG‐TERM OUTCOME OF ENDOSCOPIC BALLOON DILATION IN OBSTRUCTIVE GASTROINTESTINAL CROHN's DISEASE

Background: Gastrointestinal strictures are the most often and serious complication in Crohn's disease. Because of the frequent postoperative recurrence in Crohn's disease, endoscopic therapy of gastrointestinal stricture is one of the best therapeutic options. Method: The present study sets out the results from a prospective study of endoscopic dilation therapy on 48 Crohn's disease patients with severe gastrointestinal stenoses. All patients who could not undergo endoscopic balloon dilation therapy (EBD) were operated on. Results: Long‐term success was attained in 32 of the 48 patients; cumulative avoidance of surgery after EBD was 86% at one year and 71% at three. Second, the most hazardous factor was recurrent inflammation causing restenosis. Patients who had strictures with oral luminal dilatation and patients with frequent recurrence had a tendency to be operated on. As a complication, perforation occurred in two cases (3.3%). Conclusions: EBD therapy for Crohn's stricture in the gastrointestinal tract is recommended before surgical intervention.     

The significance of a rapid cold hemagglutination test for detecting mycoplasma infections in children with asthma exacerbation.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection is a frequent cause of community-acquired respiratory infections in children and adults. However, standardized, rapid, specific methods for its diagnosis are lacking. The relationship between M. pneumoniae infection and asthma exacerbation has been recently discussed in the literature. We investigated the accuracy of rapid detection of mycoplasma infection by cold hemagglutination test compared to conventional enzyme immunoassays. The clinical characteristics of mycoplasma infection seen during emergent visits in asthmatic children were reviewed. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients with asthma exacerbation visiting the Department of Pediatric Emergency, National Taiwan University Hospital, over a 12-month period. Subjects 2-18 years of age diagnosed with asthma at our outpatient clinic were included in this study. Patients with immunodeficiency, congenital anomalies, neurological diseases and irregular follow-up were excluded. RESULTS: A total of 269 children (174 males and 95 females) with a mean (+/- standard deviation) age of 6.15 +/- 3.08 years were included. The prevalence of asthma exacerbation in regular follow-up patients was 13.4%, and as many as 19.6% of cases (74/378 person-times) required hospitalization. Asthma attacks were most prevalent during December. 126 patients had both rapid cold hemagglutination testing and mycoplasma immunoglobulin M titers determined using acute blood samples drawn in the emergency room; 46 (36.5%) of these patients demonstrated mycoplasma infection. Sensitivity and specificity of the rapid cold hemagglutination test was 78.3% and 41.3%, respectively. The positive predictive value was 43.4%. Comparison of patients with or without mycoplasma infection revealed no differences in gender, age, chest X-ray findings, and most symptoms/signs and laboratory data, except that more signs of fever and auscultatory rales were seen in the non-mycoplasma infection group. CONCLUSIONS: Mycoplasma infections could be an exacerbating factor for asthma, and the rapid cold hemagglutination test should not be a guideline for prescribing macrolides in the emergency room.     

外源性一氧化氮抗日本血吸虫的实验研究

目的观察外源性一氧化氮(NO)抗日本血吸虫的效果。方法以蜂蜡为NO的吸收剂,在不同条件下用逆转乳化法制备NO乳状液,测定其中NO的含量,选择乳状液中NO含量最大的用于抗日本血吸虫试验。在小鼠感染日本血吸虫尾蚴后22天起灌服,剂量为0.5ml/d,连续灌服5d,心脏灌注法收集虫体计数,研究外源性NO抗日本血吸虫的效果。结果外源性NO中NO的最大含量为536.2μmol/L;对小鼠日本血吸虫有一定的杀虫效果,减虫率达45.0%,减卵率达42.7%。结论外源性NO对日本血吸虫有一定的抗虫作用。     

心脏连续横断断层的解剖学研究

用20个成人尸体心脏,从右心耳上缘平面向下作1.0cm厚的连续横断断层切片。对心脏每一断层下断面,进行各项观测,同时还观察了心脏各断层与胸壁的对应关系。     

心率变异性与心肌梗塞范围关系的研究

报道７２例急性心肌梗塞患者的心率变异性（ＨＲＶ）值与心肌梗塞范围的关系，并与１２０例正常人的ＨＲＶ值进行对比，结果发现，心肌梗塞急性期ＨＲＶ值明显降低，与正常组对比有显著统计学意义，但ＨＲＶ值降低与心肌梗塞部位、范围无关，可能主要为心肌梗塞引起的应激反应所造成的体液及神经调节改变所致。

普鲁卡因静脉复合麻醉对肝脏血流和氧耗影响的实验研究

采用电磁血流仪和血气分析等技术，研究普鲁卡因静脉复合麻醉对犬体循环血流动力学及肝脏血流和氧耗影响。 １％普鲁卡因复合液以 １．０ｍｇ· ｋｇ－１／ｍｉｎ速度静滴时，随麻醉时间延长，血浆普鲁卡因浓度逐渐升高，６０分钟达５６．９±８．７ｍｇ／Ｌ。体循环各项血流动力学参数趋于稳定，仅在６０分钟产生明显的体循环抑制效应。心率和平均动脉压分别降低２７％、２５％，心指数由３．５２±０．２１Ｌ·ｍｉｎ－１／ｍ２降至 ３． ０８±０．１２Ｌ· ｍｉｎ－１／ｍ２。肝总血流量和氧耗与体循环动力学呈一致性变化。因此，肝脏疾患及肝手术的患者，只要控制血中普鲁卡因浓度不过高，仍可安全实施普鲁卡因静脉复合麻醉。
