超高龄老年人脑损伤致伤因素分析及护理对策

目的 探讨老年人颅脑损伤的发病因素和护理措施.方法 对1999～2003年在解放军总医院定点就医的一组老年人群(年均18 492人)共210例颅脑损伤患者发病时的身体状况,发病率及受伤特点,病程及治疗和护理等临床资料进行回顾性总结.该组老年人在建档案时已被分为2个亚组:超高龄组年龄限(平均年龄79.75岁,1 978例)和老年组年龄限(平均年龄69.42岁,16514例).以同期其他人群的脑损伤187例作为对照组,并进行2组回顾资料的比较.结果 按意向处理分析397例均进入结果分析.发病率及受伤特点:超高龄组发病率明显高于老年组,多为摔伤;老年组和对照组均为交通伤占主要伤因.治疗及病程:对照组和老年组中均有超过80%患者接受手术治疗,而超高龄组仅有53.40%的患者接受手术治疗.预后:各组的死亡率和重残比率均无明显差别.结论 老年人群的脑损伤致伤原因主要是摔伤,同时多患有单器官或多器官的疾病;老年人脑损伤占用医疗资源多,但经积极治疗和采取有效的护理措施,仍可获得较好的疗效;回顾性资料记载超高龄组是能够检索到的国内外老年人脑损伤平均年龄最高的一组,对超高龄脑损伤的相关分析是有临床借鉴意义的.     

Implant wear induces inflammation, but not osteoclastic bone resorption, in RANK(-/-) mice.

Signaling of RANK (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B) through its ligand RANKL appears critical in osteolysis associated with aseptic loosening (AL). The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of RANK in a murine osteolysis model developed in RANK knockout (RANK(-/-)) mice. Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) debris was introduced into established air pouches on RANK(-/-) mice, followed by implantation of calvaria bone from syngeneic littermates. Wild type C57BL/6 (RANK(+/+)) mice injected with either UHMWPE or saline alone were included in this study. Pouch tissues were collected 14 days after UHMWPE inoculation for molecular and histology analysis. Results showed that UHMWPE stimulation induced strong pouch tissue inflammation in RANK(-/-) mice, as manifested by inflammatory cellular infiltration, pouch tissue proliferation, and increased gene expression of IL-1beta, TNFalpha, and RANKL. However, the UHMWPE-induced inflammation in RANK(-/-) mice was not associated with the osteoclastic bone resorption observed in RANK(+/+) mice. In RANK(+/+) mice subjected to UHMWPE stimulation, a large number of TRAP(+) cells were found on the implanted bone surface, where active osteoclastic bone resorption was observed. No TRAP(+) cells were found in UHMWPE-containing pouch tissues of RANK(-/-) mice. Consistent with the lack of osteoclastic activity shown by TRAP staining, no significant UHMWPE particle-induced bone resorption was found in RANK(-/-) mice. A well preserved bone collagen content (Van Gieson staining) and normal plateau surface contour [microcomputed tomography (microCT)] of implanted bone was observed in RANK(-/-) mice subjected to UHMWPE stimulation. In conclusion, this study provides the evidence that UHMWPE particles induce strong inflammatory responses, but not associated with osteoclastic bone resorption in RANK(-/-) mice. This indicates that RANK signaling is essential for UHMWPE particle-induced osteoclastic bone resorption, but does not participate in UHMWPE particle-induced inflammatory response.     

Cardiac myxoma with glandular component: case report

Cardiac myxoma has varying clinical presentation, uncertain histogenesis and debatable immunohis- tochemical profile. Glandular epithelial differentiation is a rare phenomenon, but glandular elements are known to be present in cardiac myxoma as an intrinsic component of the tumor. We present a case of cardiac myxoma having focal glandular differentiation, with special reference to the morphologic features and immunohistochemical profiles.     

微波对医院用纸张类物品的消毒效果

目的了解微波对纸张的消毒效果,减少院内感染。方法采用乙型肝炎表面抗原(HBsAg)阳性血清,沙门菌、大肠埃希菌、黄曲霉菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、巨大芽孢杆菌制成模拟标本,分时分层进行微波处理。结果在75℃消毒10 min的情况下,对纸张类物品的表面及其他层微生物均有杀灭作用。结论待消毒纸张用牛皮纸包好,放在微波专用塑料蒸煲内,高火或中高火消毒2~3 min,可达消毒目的。     

喹诺酮类药物致急性肾衰临床分析

目的分析喹诺酮类药物对肾脏功能的影响。方法对近14年来应用喹诺酮类药物引起急性肾衰（ARF）29例进行分析。结果应用5d以内者ARF的发生率为10．3％，随着应用时间延长，发生率逐渐增高；55岁以下ARF发生率为2．0％，随年龄增大，发生率逐渐增高；非少尿型ARF预后较好，少尿型预后较差。结论年龄越大，疗程越长，ARF发生率越高。     

Efficacy and safety of herbal medicines for idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a systematic review.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of herbal medicines (HMs), as a monotherapy or adjunct therapy, compared to placebo or conventional approaches in the treatment of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). We conducted a systematic review of randomized controlled trials from both conventional and alternative medicine sources. Outcome measures were overall improvement, quality of life, reduction of levodopa dose, and adverse events. Nine studies were included, each testing a different HM. Six of the trials had limited internal validity due to major flaws in design, including the lack of proper randomization; insufficient blinding; unclear inclusive criteria in terms of diagnostic criteria, baseline staging, and duration of disease; lack of proper sample size calculation; and insufficient data analysis. Imbalances in gender and ethnicity among the patients in the included trials were observed. No major adverse events emerged, and no specific pattern was detected from the trials describing such data. In addition to major methodological defects, heterogeneity in (1) HM tested, (2) control treatment, and (3) outcome measure hindered in-depth data analysis and synthesis. Current evidence is insufficient to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various HMs. Further studies with improved trial design and reporting, with assessment on cost-effectiveness, quality of life, and qualitative data are warranted.

Juvenile Xanthogranuloma with Ocular Involvement

Abstract:   Juvenile xanthogranuloma is a benign histiocytic skin disorder encountered primarily in infancy and childhood. Approximately 0.4% of cases exhibit ocular manifestations, which can result in glaucoma and blindness. We present a case of a 7-month-old male with unilateral glaucoma associated with Juvenile xanthogranuloma, and emphasize the importance of an ocular screening in patients with Juvenile xanthogranuloma, especially those with periocular lesions.
