Percutaneous sacral third nerve root neurostimulation improves symptoms and normalizes urinary HB-EGF levels and antiproliferative activity in patients with interstitial cystitis

OBJECTIVES: A highly effective treatment for interstitial cystitis (IC) remains elusive. We determined whether sacral third nerve root (S3) percutaneous neurostimulation (PNS) might be effective in relieving symptoms of IC, as well as in normalizing urinary factors that are specifically altered in IC. METHODS: Six consecutive patients with symptoms and cystoscopic findings compatible with IC underwent 5 days of continuous S3 neurostimulation by way of leads placed percutaneously into the S3 foramen. Patients filled out voiding frequency diaries and pain and urgency questionnaires before PNS and at the end of PNS when the leads were removed. Urine specimens were collected at these two time points and measured for heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and for antiproliferative factor (APF) activity by (3)H-thymidine uptake by normal human bladder urothelial cells. RESULTS: S3 PNS significantly improved all measured parameters toward normal values. Voiding frequency decreased twofold from 23.1 +/- 4.6 to 10.6 +/- 4.0 voids daily during PNS (P = 0.0001). Pelvic pain on a scale of 1 to 10 decreased from 7.0 +/- 1.6 to 2.3 +/- 3.2 (P = 0.05). Urinary urgency on a scale of 1 to 10 decreased from 6.0 +/- 2.2 to 1.8 +/- 1.7 (P = 0. 02). Urinary HB-EGF concentration increased sevenfold from 1.5 +/- 2. 1 to 11.0 +/- 1.7 ng/mL (P <0.0001), and urinary APF activity decreased from -76.1% +/- 31% to -4.5% +/- 8.8% (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: S3 PNS significantly decreased symptoms and normalized urinary HB-EGF and APF activity in patients with IC. These results suggest that permanent S3 PNS may be beneficial in treating IC.     

Cranial CT interpretation by senior emergency department staff

The aims of the present study were to determine the rate of misinterpretation of non‐contrast cranial CT scans by emergency specialists and trainees compared with specialist radiologists, and the proportion of misinterpretations that is consequential. A 12‐month prospective blinded cohort study was performed. One‐hundred and ninety of 1282 scans (14.8%) were misinterpreted, and 78 of these (41.1%) were of potential or actual consequence. We conclude that the performance of senior emergency department staff in non‐contrast cranial CT interpretation is no better than moderately good, and a large proportion of misinterpretations are of potential or actual clinical consequence.

血府逐瘀口服液的膜分离澄清研究

“血府逐瘀口服液”是由桃仁、红花、川芎、赤芍、柴胡等11种中药材并添加蜂蜜配制而成。蜂蜜的加入对复方成份起了絮凝和结团作用，使产品出现沉淀。作者采用平均孔径为0．45μm、2μm和5μm的微滤膜以及截留分子量为10000和30000道尔顿的超滤膜进行了终端膜分离试验。结果表明膜分离可以使产品得到澄清，分离除去杂质后的口服液产品经高效液相色谱分析，发现其芍药甙浓度提高了2～6％。在试验条件下，求取了膜分离过程的膜通量与污染速度数据，并推断可能的单程膜分离处理量，为放大试验或生产装置选择设计参数提供了参考。本文系攀登计划支持性课题——“膜组件污染与再生过程的实时监测与分析”的应用研究。
