急性肺损伤幼鼠肺泡Ⅱ型上皮细胞和SP-A变化相关性的研究

目的：该实验旨在研究急性肺损伤（ALI）时肺泡Ⅱ型上皮细胞（AEC-Ⅱ）超微结构变化和肺组织表面活性蛋白SP-A含量的变化关系，从而探讨ALI的发病机制。方法：48只Sprague-Dawley幼鼠被随机分为正常对照组和ALI组。 腹腔注射脂多糖（LPS，4 mg/kg）建立ALI模型，正常对照组注射等量生理盐水。 LPS注射后24，48，72 h每亚组各处死8只大鼠。 取左肺下肺组织待透射电镜检查。 用Western blot方法测定肺组织SP-A的相对含量。结果：ALI 24 h时，AEC-Ⅱ微绒毛消失。24 h及48 h时板层小体（lamellar body, Lb）数量增加，体积增大，密度减低，排空明显增强，呈指环状绕核排列，细胞增生活跃，代谢旺盛。48 h时Lb呈巨大空泡样变性。肺组织SP-A含量明显高于对照组（24 h时ALI组为6.52±0.62，对照组为5.02±0.35， P< 0.01；48 h时ALI组为6.65±0.62，对照组为5.01±0.36，P< 0.01）。72 h时Lb破溃，数目明显减少，细胞核形态不规则，部分核边界不清，肺组织SP-A含量下降(ALI组为3.87±0.50，对照组为5.22±0.36，P<0.01)。结论： LPS致幼鼠ALI时AEC-Ⅱ和肺组织SP-A的变化为时间依赖性，随AEC-Ⅱ损伤程度的加重肺组织SP-A由代偿转为失代偿，可能是发生ARDS的重要机制之一。

Digital beam attenuator technique for compensated chest radiography

The feasibility of producing patient-specific beam attenuators for chest radiography has been investigated using an anthropomorphic phantom and a human volunteer. A low-dose test exposure is digitized, processed, and used to print a small cerium filter, which is placed in the x-ray beam near the collimator. The final radiograph is recorded on film. The technique results in relatively uniform film exposure, so that structures in all regions of the chest are simultaneously displayed with optimal film contrast. The equalized exposure improves image quality in the normally underpenetrated regions and reduces the role of cross-scatter from the lungs. The image is analogous to optical or computer-processed unsharp masking techniques, but the processing is accomplished in the x-ray beam and results in an improved exposure distribution, giving advantages that cannot be achieved with image processing techniques alone.     

Foraminal spurs: a normal variant in the lumbar spine

A normal variant, the foraminal spur, is described in five patients. It was seen on computed tomographic studies as a bony process extending from either the pars or the pedicle into the neuroforamen dorsal to the nerve root. In four of the cases it was seen bilaterally. None of the patients had any symptoms related to these spurs. No associated disease of the neuroforamen or facet was present. These spurs most likely represent ossification of the ligamentum flavum at its point of insertion and should not be mistaken for osteophytes, free disk fragments that have calcified, or fracture fragments. Sagittal reformations are helpful in visualizing the extent of the foraminal spurs.     

腹部及盆腔急性出血的介入治疗

目的探讨腹部急性出血选择性血管造影诊断及介入治疗价值。方法回顾性分析80例行选择性动脉血管造影及血管内介入治疗的腹部及盆腔急性出血患者的临床资料。结果80例均采用Seldinger技术,经股动脉插管后作选择性血管造影,用碘化油、明胶海绵或弹簧圈栓塞治疗,80例中完全止血68例、再出血9例、无效3例。结论介入方法不仅可确定出血部位,而且可达到止血目的,效果确切。     

A Mycobacterium tuberculosis cluster demonstrating the use of genotyping in urban tuberculosis control

Background  

DNA fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates offers better opportunities to study links between tuberculosis (TB) cases and can highlight relevant issues in urban TB control in low-endemic countries.
