Binocular vision regained after monocular traumatic aphakia by wearing contact lenses.

In this study 35 patients with monocular traumatic aphakia were enrolled to document the degree of binocular vision gained by optical correction with contact lenses. The most important factors in achieving binocular vision were the interval between formation of the traumatic cataract and surgery and between the operation and starting wearing contact lenses. There was a statistically significant correlation between these two intervals and the achievement of near stereopsis and normal visual acuity.

PREVALENCE OF MITRAL VALVE PROLAPSE IN HONG KONG CHINESE A CLINICAL AND AUTOPSY STUDY

The prevalence of mitral valve pro.lapse in Chinese was determined by screening 156 heal- thy subjects and by patholobic examination of 86 adult autopsies. Mitral valve prolapse was found in 7.7% in the clinical study and 5.8% in the autopsy study. A slight female preponderance was noted.     

Gallbladder and bile duct stones: percutaneous therapy with primary MTBE dissolution and mechanical methods

The authors describe percutaneous treatment of gallbladder or bile duct stones in 18 patients who were poor surgical candidates or in whom conventional therapy failed. Dissolution was performed in most cases with methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) because of its potent dissolution properties; other solvents used included monooctanoin or chelating solutions. Gallbladder stones were eliminated in 11 of 13 patients (six of seven with dissolution alone, four of four with dissolution and basket extraction, one with basket removal alone). In five patients with stones in the common bile duct (n = 3), cystic duct remnant (n = 1), and intrahepatic bile ducts (n = 1), stones were eliminated with dissolution alone in two and with dissolution plus basket extraction in one. In two patients percutaneous therapy failed due to complications (vagal hypotension with bile peritonitis and transient respiratory arrest) that occurred during catheter placement. Preliminary results suggest that MTBE is effective for dissolution of many gallbladder stones and some bile duct stones. Noncholesterol solvents and adjuvant mechanical maneuvers are valuable adjuncts to achieve complete stone elimination.     

脑益嗪对实验性脑血栓形成及血小板聚集的抑制作用

本文报道脑益嗪对大鼠实验性脑血栓形成及兔血小板聚集的抑制作用。经大鼠颈动脉顺行注射复合血栓诱导剂造成脑血栓模型,测定伊文思兰通过血脑屏障渗入脑实质的量以反映脑血栓的严重程度。结果表明脑益嗪(67 mg/kg,灌胃)有抗脑血栓形成的作用。半体内实验表明脑益嗪(34 mg/kg,灌胃)可抑制兔血小板聚集。
