化学中毒与急性缺氧的双因素联合效应的实验研究

目的 研究化学中毒与急性缺氧两因素的联合效应。方法 建立常压常氧、常压缺氧和低压缺氧3种模型，以梭曼(Soman)、氰化钠(NaCN)和4-DMAP(4-dimethylaminophenol)为代表，测定大鼠、小鼠、家猫、PC12细胞、兔血红细胞等在3种模型条件下对毒物药物的行为、生化和生理指标变化。结果梭曼单独作用可导致动物协调运动下降、脑等组织含水率增加、脑组织AChE活性降低、MR下调、NE和cAMP含量增加。急性缺氧单独作用也可引起动物协调运动及自主活动的降低、脑等组织含水率的增加、外周血和脑组织AChE活性升高、MR受体上调、NE和cAMP含量增加、4-DMAP药效升高。化学中毒与急性缺氧同时作用，上述变化更加复杂。结论 化学中毒与急性缺氧两种因素同时作用于机体，对机体产生广泛而复杂的损伤作用。此种作用为两因素的联合效应。缺氧引起的机体功能下降对联合效应的增加部分贡献较大。急性缺氧既可使重要的组织成分发生质或量的变化，也会影响某些抗毒剂的作用强度。     

Comparison of the efficacy and safety of ciclesonide 160 μg once daily vs. budesonide 400 μg once daily in children with asthma

Ciclesonide is an onsite-activated inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) for the treatment of asthma. This study compared the efficacy, safety and effect on quality of life (QOL) of ciclesonide 160 microg (ex-actuator; nominal dose 200 microg) vs. budesonide 400 microg (nominal dose) in children with asthma. Six hundred and twenty-one children (aged 6-11 yr) with asthma were randomized to receive ciclesonide 160 microg (ex-actuator) once daily (via hydrofluoroalkane metered-dose inhaler and AeroChamber Plus spacer) or budesonide 400 microg once daily (via Turbohaler) both given in the evening for 12 wk. The primary efficacy end-point was change in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). Additional measurements included change in daily peak expiratory flow (PEF), change in asthma symptom score sum, change in use of rescue medication, paediatric and caregiver asthma QOL questionnaire [PAQLQ(S) and PACQLQ, respectively] scores, change in body height assessed by stadiometry, change in 24-h urinary cortisol adjusted for creatinine and adverse events. Both ciclesonide and budesonide increased FEV1, morning PEF and PAQLQ(S) and PACQLQ scores, and improved asthma symptom score sums and the need for rescue medication after 12 wk vs. baseline. The non-inferiority of ciclesonide vs. budesonide was demonstrated for the change in FEV1 (95% confidence interval: -75, 10 ml, p = 0.0009, one-sided non-inferiority, per-protocol). In addition, ciclesonide and budesonide showed similar efficacy in improving asthma symptoms, morning PEF, use of rescue medication and QOL. Ciclesonide was superior to budesonide with regard to increases in body height (p = 0.003, two-sided). The effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis was significantly different in favor of ciclesonide treatment (p < 0.001, one-sided). Both ciclesonide and budesonide were well tolerated. Ciclesonide 160 microg once daily and budesonide 400 microg once daily were effective in children with asthma. In addition, in children treated with ciclesonide there was significantly less reduction in body height and suppression of 24-h urinary cortisol excretion compared with children treated with budesonide after 12 wk.     

Calcification and ossification of chronic encapsulated intracerebral haematoma: case report.

We report a case of calcified chronic encapsulated intracerebral haematoma (ICH) in a 29-year-old female who presented with progressive left sided weakness and intermittent seizures since childhood. The preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the head initially suggested that a partially thrombosed aneurysm or vascular malformation was present. However, no vascular stain was found on the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) of both the carotid and vertebral arteries. The excised mass was histologically diagnosed as a chronic ICH. We traced the patient's medical history and found that at the age of one she sustained a head injury after a fall. So far, to our knowledge, no case of epilepsy secondary to a calcified chronic encapsulated ICH occurring 28 years after head injury has been reported. Calcified chronic encapsulated ICH concomitant with new bone formation within is even rarer. The possible pathogenesis of this case is discussed.     

肝细胞生长因子在左肾动脉狭窄大鼠心血管中的表达及干预研究

目的　观察左肾动脉狭窄肾性高血压大鼠模型心肌和血管中肝细胞生长因子 (HGF)的表达 ,并观察缬沙坦和螺内酯对其表达的影响。方法　选用 6周龄SD大鼠 2 4只 ,制备左肾动脉狭窄肾性高血压模型 ,分为 4组 ,分别为手术组、假手术组、缬沙坦组、螺内酯组。治疗组分别用缬沙坦 3 0mg/kg·d-1、螺内酯 2 0mg/kg·d-1溶于饮水灌胃 ,1次 /d ,连续治疗 17周。用逆转录 聚合酶链反应 (RT PCR)法检测大鼠心肌和血管HGFmRNA水平。结果　 17周后 ,缬沙坦组和螺内酯组的心肌HGFmRNA/ β actinmRNA(1.17± 0 .0 8/ 0 .85± 0 .0 8)高于手术组 (0 .5 7± 0 .0 7) (P <0 .0 1) ,但低于假手术组 (1.3 5± 0 .0 9) (P均 <0 .0 1)。两治疗组肠系膜动脉HGFmRNA水平高于手术组 (P <0 .0 1) ,但低于假手术组 (P均 <0 .0 1)。结论　缬沙坦和螺内酯均能使左肾动脉狭窄肾性高血压大鼠心肌和血管中的HGF升高 ,同时伴有心肌和血管重塑的改善 ,说明HGF在左肾动脉狭窄肾性高血压大鼠的靶器官保护中起着重要作用     

中西医结合要为妇女生殖健康创新页

45年来,复旦大学妇产科医院在中西医结合临床及科研方面取得了可喜的成就.针刺促排卵的研究,通过观察血雌激素和中枢β-内啡肽(β-EP)的关系,提出了针刺通过耗竭中枢β-EP而促排卵的新认识,认为针刺促排卵的主要适应症是青春期月经失调,并将针刺成功地应用于治疗神经性厌食;补肾化痰的俞氏温补方治疗多囊卵巢综合征(polycystic ovary syndrome, PCOS)被证实是通过提高血促卵泡激素(follicle stimulating hormone, FSH)并诱发排卵而起作用;益肾化瘀的天癸方是通过降低患者及动物模型的雄激素和胰岛素,引起以中枢阿片促黑激素皮质素原、神经肽Y和瘦素受体为主的神经-内分泌-代谢网络调节而发挥促排卵和减肥作用,对高胰岛素型PCOS有良效,并在研究中提出了对PCOS分类的新设想;益肾清火的更年春通过提高中枢与周围组织的雌激素受体及其mRNA表达来调节围绝经期妇女的神经-内分泌-免疫-代谢网络而获优越疗效.这些研究表明,疾病是外环境影响下患者生命网络的某些主脉失调所致,而且亚健康状态的妇女具有初步网络失控的现象,中西医结合将为女性生殖医学研究找到捷径,调控生命网络是防病治病的主要思路.     

夜来香根茎水提取液局部麻醉作用的研究

目的：研究夜来香(CN)根茎水提取液的局部麻醉作用及其作用机制。方法：采用蟾蜍离体坐骨神经动作电位法、豚鼠皮丘法、椎管麻醉法、表面麻醉法。结果：20％的CN水提取液对蟾蜍离体坐骨神经动作电位可完全消失，但较1％的普鲁卡因稍弱。豚鼠皮丘实验表明，20％CN提取液有浸润麻醉作用，其浸润麻醉效果与1％的普鲁卡因相似，而且盐酸肾上腺素可增强其麻醉强度和明显延长局麻作用时间；家兔椎管麻醉实验表明CN提取液有明显的椎管麻醉作用；CN提取液对家兔角膜也有一定的表麻作用，只是作用强度及持续时间比1％的普鲁卡因稍弱或稍短。结论：CN提取液有明显的局部麻醉作用。
