全腹膜外补片植入术中补片不固定的实验研究

目的评价全腹膜外补片植入术中补片不固定的安全性和有效性。方法将50只SD大鼠建立疝缺损(3cm2)模型,按随机数字表分为2组,使用聚丙烯补片(12 cm2)采用腹膜外补片植入术进行修复。甲组为补片固定组,乙组为补片不固定组。大鼠于术后不同时间分批处死,记录补片的挛缩度、腹壁抗张强度以及组织细胞学变化。结果所有大鼠术后腹腔均无粘连。2组大鼠在术后7 d、14 d、30 d、60 d和90 d补片的挛缩度分别为6.7%±1.3%vs 7.3%±1.5%、12.3%±1.3%vs 12.4%±1.6%、14.0%±2.0%vs 14.5%±1.3%、17.4%±2.1%vs 18.4%±1.5%和18.9%±2.2%vs19.5%±2.6%(P>0.05);2组大鼠的腹壁抗张强度分别为(288.4±8.4)mm Hg vs(286.6±10.2)mm Hg、(300.4±11.2)mm Hg vs(298.8±11.4)mm Hg、(305.0±11.7)mm Hg vs(303.3±16.1)mm Hg、(309.0±10.8)mm Hg vs(307.6±8.9)mm Hg和(311.8±9.8)mm Hg vs(310.0±8.6)mm Hg(P>0.05);2组大鼠的组织细胞学变化一致。结论当补片面积是大鼠疝缺损的4倍以上时,不固定的腹膜外补片植入术是安全有效的。     

宫腔镜在辅助生殖技术中的应用

目的：探讨宫腔镜检查术在辅助生殖技术中应用的重要性。方法：对150例拟行辅助生殖技术的不育妇女行常规宫腔镜检查。结果：宫腔镜150例中47例（31％）有镜下异常，其中：子宫内膜息肉或息肉样增生18例（12％），子宫内膜单纯性增生17例（11％），子宫畸形7例（5％），宫腔粘连狭窄3例（2％），子宫内膜结核1例（0．7％），子宫黏膜下肌瘤或腺肌瘤1例（0．7％）。以宫腔镜诊断为标准，阴道超声诊断敏感性、特异性、阳性预测值、阴性预测值、准确率分别为66％（31／47）、98％（101／103）、94％（31／33）、86％（101／117）、88％（132／150），子宫造影分别为26％（12／47）、100％（95／95）、100％（12／12）、73％（95／130）、75％（107／142）。结论：宫腔镜检查术具有良好的可接受性和准确性，应作为辅助生殖技术前的常规检查。

Elevated hepatic SULT1E1 activity in mouse models of cystic fibrosis alters the regulation of estrogen responsive proteins.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) DeltaF508 mice indicate that estrogen levels may play a role in the occurrence or severity of CF-associated liver disease. However, the underlying mechanisms of liver disease in CF are poorly understood. METHODS: The levels of SULT1E1 (estrogen sulfotransferase) were measured in livers of control and CFTR-knockout (KO) mice. The impact of increased SULT1E1 activity on hepatic protein expression was assessed by immunoblot and MALDI mass spectrometric analysis. RESULTS: SULT1E1 expression was significantly elevated in livers of several CFTR-KO mice. SULT1E1 and CFTR were specifically detected in hepatocytes and cholangiocytes, respectively. Elevated SULT1E1 activity may result in lower levels of free beta-estradiol thereby altering estrogen-responsive hepatic protein expression. Estrogen receptors (ER)-alpha and beta were differentially regulated in CFTR-KO and CFTR-DeltaF508 mice. ERalpha expression was reduced in mice with high SULT1E1 activity. Glutathione S-transferase-P1 and carbonic anhydrase III were significantly decreased in CFTR (-/-) mice with high SULT1E1 activity. Furthermore, cytochrome P450 2B9, also estrogen regulated, was significantly induced in the livers of CFTR (-/-) mice with high SULT1E1 activity. CONCLUSIONS: Elevated SULT1E1 levels and associated alterations in estrogen-regulated hepatic protein expression may play an important role in CF liver disease.     

Histamine and tryptase modulate asthmatic airway smooth muscle GM-CSF and RANTES release.

Degranulating mast cells are increased in the airway smooth muscle (ASM) of asthmatics, where they may influence ASM function. The aim of the present study was to determine whether histamine and tryptase modulate ASM cell granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted) release and also to examine which receptors are involved in this release. Confluent, quiescent ASM cells from asthmatic and nonasthmatic donors were treated with histamine (1 microM-100 microM) with and without histamine receptor antagonist pre-treatment, or the protease-activated receptor (PAR)-2 agonists tryptase (0.5-5 nM) and SLIGKV (100 and 400 microM). The cells were then stimulated with interleukin (IL)-1beta and/or tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha (10 ng.mL(-1)) or left unstimulated for 24 h. Release of GM-CSF and RANTES was determined by ELISA and prostaglandin (PG)E(2) measured by enzyme immunoassay. Neither histamine nor tryptase induced ASM GM-CSF or RANTES secretion. However, histamine increased IL-1beta-induced GM-CSF release and markedly reduced TNF-alpha-induced RANTES release by both asthmatic and nonasthmatic cells to a similar extent, but did not modulate PGE(2) release. All changes involved activation of the histamine H1 receptor as they were partially or fully blocked by chlorpheniramine, but not ranitidine. Tryptase, via its proteolytic activity, also potentiated GM-CSF, but not RANTES, release from asthmatic and nonasthmatic ASM cells induced by both cytokines. PAR-2 involvement in the tryptase potentiation was unlikely because SLIGKV had no effect. In conclusion, mast cells, through histamine and tryptase, may locally modulate airway smooth muscle-induced inflammation in asthma.
