经胸小切口在食管癌切除手术中的应用

目的探讨经胸小切口治疗食管癌手术的地位和可行性。方法对132例不同分期的食管癌行经胸小切口根治性手术,全部采用颈部吻合。结果切口平均长度13.0±2.0 cm,开关胸时间、开胸时出血量、术后伤口疼痛、呼吸功能受限及患肢活动等方面有显著差异,在手术时间、淋巴结清扫、术中出血及术后胸腔引流和常规手术无差异。结论经胸小切口食管癌根治手术安全、可行,并且有创伤小、恢复快等优点,便于推广应用。     

牛磺酸对高血压和血管活性物质的影响

本文在原发性高血压(EH)患者,大鼠腹主动脉狭窄的高盐摄入引起高血压模型上,观察到口服牛磺酸治疗4周后均明显降低平均动脉压和收缩压,42.2%的患者血压恢复正常,并能抑制EH患者和高血压大鼠血浆内皮素(ET)和血管紧张素Ⅱ(AⅡ)水平的升高,增加高血压大鼠血浆降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)和主动脉组织中的牛磺酸含量,以上结果表明牛磺酸在降压作用同时伴有缩血管物质的降低和舒血管物质的增加,为牛磺酸抗高血压辅助用药提供依据.     

结节性甲状腺肿及其非典型结节与甲状腺癌细胞核DNA定量研究

作者对结节性甲状腺肿及其非典型结节与甲状腺癌细胞核直径、面积及 DNA 含量检测,发现核直径与面积的(?)和 S 为甲状腺癌组>非典型结节组>对照组(P<0.01);随着细胞增生异型程度的加重,核直径、面积及离散程度随之增加、DNA 含量也显著增加,显示Ⅲ级 DNA 含量细胞出现频率越高恶性的可能性就越大;同时发现各组细胞核不同 DNA 含量的核直径、面积均明显增加,与对照组相比差异生非常显著(P<0.01)。

Family physicians' perceptions of academic detailing: a quantitative and qualitative study

Background  

The efficacy of academic detailing in changing physicians' knowledge and practice has been the subject of many primary research publications and systematic reviews. However, there is little written about the features of academic detailing that physicians find valuable or that affect their use of it. The goal of our project was to explore family physicians' (FPs) perceptions of academic detailing and the factors that affect their use of it.     

Testing the effectiveness of the exercise plus program in older women post-hip fracture

Background: Exercise is an important strategy with potential to improve recovery in older adults following a hip fracture.Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test the impact of a self-efficacy based intervention, the Exercise Plus Program, and the different components of the intervention, on self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and exercise behavior among older women post-hip fracture.Methods: Participants were randomized to one of four groups: exercise plus, exercise only, plus only (i.e., motivation), or routine care. Data collection was done at baseline (within 22 days of fracture), 2, 6, and 12 months post-hip fracture.Results: A total of 209 women were recruited with an average age of 81.0 years (SD=6.9). The majority was White (97.1%), was widowed (57.2%), and had a high school education (66.7%). Generalized Estimating Equations were used to perform repeated measures analyses. No differences in trajectories of recovery were observed for self-efficacy or outcome expectations. A statistically significant difference in the overall trajectory of time in exercise was seen (p<.001), with more time spent exercising in all three treatment groups.Conclusions: The study demonstrated that it was possible to engage these women in a home-based exercise program and that the plus only, exercise only, and the exercise plus groups all increased exercise. Support for this project was provided by National Institute on Aging grants R37 AG09901, R01-AG18668, R01 AG17082, and the Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center P60-AG12583.     

Deltoid flap combined with fascia lata autograft for rotator cuff defects: a histologic study

The purpose of this study was to compare the histological characteristics of an autogenous fascia lata graft alone and a fascia lata graft combined with a deltoid flap in the reconstruction of rotator cuff tears. Ten New Zealand white rabbits were divided into two groups. Infraspinatus tendon defects (1 × 1 cm) were created in each animal. Reconstruction consisted of either a fascia lata graft alone or a fascia lata graft combined with a distally based deltoid flap. At 3 months, tissue harvest and histological analysis was performed. Compared to the fascia lata graft alone, there was significantly increased remodeling activity and neovascularization in the group that included a deltoid flap. Also, there was pronounced interdigitation at the graft/flap interface in the latter group. A mutually beneficial relationship may exist when an autogenous fascial graft is combined with a functional deltoid flap for reconstructing large rotator cuff defects.
