CURATIVE EFFECT OF LICORICE ACID ZINC ON CHILDREN WITH LOW SERUM ZINC

Zinc is closely related to children's health and growth.' We selected 120 children with low serum zinc. Adopting random double-blind method, we treated two groups of children,. 60 each, with sulphate zinc syrup and licorice acid zinc capsules respectively.

VACUOLE SIGN AND SMALL NODE SIGN IN EARLY PERIPHERAL LUNG CANCER PATHOLOGIC BASIS AND DIAGNOSTIC VALUE

Radiologic and pathologic mani;estations of 30 peripheral pulmonary masses around l.5-3 cm in dia- meter were compared to the pathologic basis of va- cuole sign and small node sign on tomogram. Stati stics of 100 conventional X-ray tomograms of peri- pheral pulmonary masses about l-3 cm in diameter suggested that the vacuole sign and small node sign, more common in early peripheral lung cancer than in tuberculoma, are valuable for differentiating early peripheral lung cancer from tuberculoma.     

Effects of Vagal and Sympathetic Nerves on Transmembrane Potential of Cardiac Ventricular Cells of Toad

The effects of vagal and sympathetic nerves on the transmembranepotentials of cardiac cells of toad were observed by means of microelectrodetechnique.The vagal nerve was stimulated there would be an increase in restingpotential and acceleration in repolarization of action potential(AP).However,ifatropine was used before stimulation the above-mentioned phenomena woulddisappear.When the sympathetic nerve was stimulated the AP amplitudeincreased,but resting potential(RP)remained the same.The increase of APresulted from the increases of overshoot.When the sympathetic nerve wasstimulated although the heart rate increased and the duration of AP wasshortened,the plateau phase of AP was prolonged.These results suggest that theeffects of vagal and sympathetic nerves on the transmembrane potential of cardiacventricular cells are coordinated and the normal characteritics of transmembranepotential are maintained by both the vagal and sympathetic nerves.     

RETlNAL VEIN OCCLUSION TREATMENT WITH WESTERN MEDICINE AND TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

This paper presents 205 ca.ses of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) treated rr.wording t0 3 regi- mens and followed up periodically during the past 14 years. The clinical findings are analyz- ed. The effective rate of combined treatnwat with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and westeirn medicine in retinal branch vein oicclu- sion (RBVO) is 85.18To. 31.76'70 0f the patients with central retinal velin occlus.ion and 53.04% of tho相似文献   

SIDE-TO-SIDE MESOCAVAL SHUNT IN PORTAL HYPERTENSION

Eighty-five consecutive patients underwent sideto.side mesocaval shunt with a success rate of 98.8'7。and 30day hospital mortality of 2.5"/o. Of 80 casesfollowed up for 3 months t0 8 years, 8 died, 3 hadencephalopathy, 5 rebleeding, 2 ascites and 3 lowerleg edema. A long history of hepatitis and liverfunction impairment were common features of dyingpatients. Rebleeding rate was 8.7'70. Liver functionplayed an important role in the determination of thetherapeutic effect.     

CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL CONFERENCE A 51-YEAR-OLD MAN WITH PALPITAT10N, SHORT BREATH, CYANOSIS AND SUFFOCATION

A 51-year-old man was admitted to our hospital on January 23, 1985 because of pal- pitation and short breath for 40 years. He was well until 7 years of age. Then he devel- oped symptoms ofpalpitation and shortbreath with cyanosisafter exercises. Relief of the symptoms would be achieved by squat- ting for a while or taking a few minutes' rest. Later, his growth was retarded. In 1960 he developed clubbing fingers. In 1965 when hospitalized for tonsillectomy, he was sus- pected of having "congenital heart disease" with ventricular septal defect, stenosis of the pulmonary artery and Eisenmengeris syndrome in question. In 1966, cardiac catheterization was performed, showing that the partial pressure of blood oxygen was l.85 vol%, higher in the right ventricle than in the left auricle. This means there exists a left to right shunt and the magnitude of shunt is 24.0% of the pulmonary circulation. The blood oxygen saturation in the f'emoral artery is a little bit low (93.5%). The hemoglubin concentration is (180g/l). Bilateral shunt could not be excluded.Since August 1969, he began to be very often troubled by nocturnal dyspnea, cough and chest distress. These symptoms could be abated by the treatment of aminophytlline. In 1976, ultrason- ocardiography revealed ventricular septal de- fect and aortic insufficiency. In May 1984. he had high fever for several days and was sus- pected of having "bacterial endocarditisu. The fever subsided with antibiotic therapy for a few db.ys. Twenty days before this hosptalization he had chest distress, short breath, palpitation, cyanosis, nocturnal dyspnea and paroxysmal precordial pain af- ter getting cold.
