股骨颈骨折不同角度固定的生物力学比较研究

本文通过测量２０个股骨上段标本，Ｘ线片的压力骨小梁系统，按照其骨小梁系统采用低角度固定其股骨颈骨折标本，以临床常用角度固定的股骨颈骨折标本作为对照组，进行静力学测定。股骨上段骨小梁系统与股骨纵轴线所成角度均数为１５４．７±１．９度，骨小梁系统与股骨外侧骨皮质交点到大转子距离均数为７．３±１．０ｃｍ。低角度固定组承载力及最大承载力明显大于对照组（Ｐ＜０．０５），且有更小的旋转移位（Ｐ＜０．０５）。本研究将低角度固定概念量化，对股骨颈骨折内固定的使用有显著的临床指导意义。     

Primary study of iontophoresis of zinc ion in treatment of retinitis pigmentosa

We report here the preliminary effects of zinc iontophoresis in treatment of 26 Rp patients who had decreased zinc serum level or abnormal ratio of serum copper to zinc. Through more than 20 to 30 times of therapy, the vision of 15.38% eyes increased more than "3 lines", 4% eyes increased more than 5 degrees in the visual field, 13.46% eyes improved in dark adaptation threshold (greater than 1.0), the visual functions of the rest eyes were slightly improved or unimproved. The fundus didn't change before & after treatment. There were no changes of ERG in 8 eyes of 4 cases. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages between Zn iontophoresis and Zn compound taken orally, the improvement of vision by direct electric current therapy, the relationship between the metabolism of Zn element and Vit A and influence of Zn over the mechanism of dark adaptation were also briefly discussed.

鼻咽癌茎突后间隙侵犯的临床意义探讨

目的 探讨鼻咽癌茎突后间隙侵犯的临床意义。方法 １９９２年１２月～１９９３年１２月１９８Ⅰ－Ⅳａ期鼻咽癌住院初治患者接受受根治性放射治疗。按茎突后间隙有无侵犯分为茎后侵犯组和茎后无侵犯组。应用Ｋａｐｌａｎ－Ｍｅｉｅｒ,Ｌｏｇ－Ｒａｎｋ及卡方检验等方法对两组患者５年生存率、局部控制率和无远处转移生存率进行分析和评价。结果两组患者口咽侵犯率分别为７２．１％和１６．８％（Ｐ〈０．００１）,后组颅神经侵犯     

The Regulatory Action of the Modified Yu Ping Feng Tang on Cellular Immunity in Mice under Amputation-Induced Stress

To approach the action of modified Yu Ping Feng Tang(玉屏风汤 Jade-Screen Decoction)on cellularimmunity,an experiment was conducted in mice under amputation-induced stress.On the 3rd dayafter amputation,acute atrophy was found in the thymus,the reactivities of T-and B-lymphocytes toCon-A and LPS were decreased,the IL-2 content and its activity reduced and the activity of NK cellslowered.The high,moderate and low concentrations of the modified Yu Ping Feng(YPF)Decoction allhave antagonistic action on the above manifestations of immune inhibition.     

KATP通道开放剂KRN2391对离体大鼠心肌梗死范围的影响

目的：探讨ＡＴＰ敏感性钾通道（ＫＡＴＰ通道）开放剂ＫＲＮ２３９１（ＫＲＮ）对离体大鼠心功能及心肌梗死范围的影响。方法：用Ｌａｎｇｅｎｄｏｒｆｆ装置,观察不同浓度ＫＲＮ对冠脉灌流量及左心室压力的影响。应用离体大鼠双冠脉分别灌注芊４５ｍｉｎ缺血及２ｈ再灌注,观察药物对心肌梗死面积的影响。结果：ＫＲＮ在达到１ｕｍｏｌ／Ｌ浓度后冠脉灌流量明显增加,达２０ｕｍｏｌ／Ｌ时左室收缩压明显下降,用１ｕｍｏｌ／ＬＫ     

Decreased frequency of a novel T-lymphocyte subset,CD3+CD4−CD7+CD57− T cells,in hepatitis B virus-related end-stage liver disease might contribute to disease progression

CD7 and CD57 are related to the differentiation and functional stages of CD8⁺ T cells. However, the role of their combined presence in CD8⁺ T cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, especially those with end-stage liver disease, remains unclear. Blood samples from healthy volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis B were analyzed via Luminex assay and ELISA to measure plasma cytokine levels. Further, recombinant IL-22 was used to stimulate peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy volunteers, and the frequency of CD3⁺CD4⁻CD7⁺CD57⁻ T cells and apoptosis rates were investigated via flow cytometry. Patients with end-stage liver disease, particularly those with acute to chronic liver failure, showed decreased CD3⁺CD4⁻CD7⁺CD57⁻ T cell frequency. Furthermore, the prevalence of CD3⁺CD4⁻CD7⁺CD57⁻ T cells was negatively correlated with disease severity, prognosis, and complications (ascites). We also observed that IL-22 promoted apoptosis and brought about a decrease in the number of CD3⁺CD4⁻CD7⁺CD57⁻ T cells in a dose-dependent manner. CD3⁺CD4⁻CD7⁺CD57⁻ T cells displayed a B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA)^highCD25^highCD127^high immunosuppressive phenotype and showed low interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, granzyme A, and perforin expression levels. The present findings will elucidate the pathogenesis of HBV-related end-stage liver disease and aid the identification of novel drug targets.     

The acceptance of SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen self-testing: A cross-sectional study in China

Compared with the nucleic acid amplification test (NATT), the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) rapid antigen self-testing (RAST) has advantages in speed and convenience. However, little is known about people's acceptance and influencing factors for SARS-CoV-2 RAST. A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 21 to 30, 2022 in China. The χ² test and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify the influencing factors. The structural equation model was used to test the extended protective motivation theory (PMT) model hypotheses. Among the total of 5107 participants, 62.5% were willing to accept the SARS-CoV-2 RAST. There were significant differences in acceptance among different residences (p < 0.001), educational level (p < 0.001), occupation (p < 0.001), monthly income (p < 0.001), travel frequency (p < 0.05), and feelings about NATT (p < 0.001). Response efficacy (β = 0.05; p = 0.025) and self-efficacy (β = 0.84; p < 0.001) had a positive effect, while response cost showed a negative effect (β = −0.07; p < 0.001). The public's major concerns about SARS-CoV-2 RAST are its reliability, testing method, price, and authority. Overall, a moderate intention to use SARS-CoV-2 RAST was found among the Chinese population. The extended PMT can be used for the prediction of intention to accept the RAST. We need to take measures to increase people's acceptance of SARS-CoV-2 RAST.
