High incidence of and risk factors for metachronous bilateral upper tract urothelial carcinoma in Taiwan

AIM: Urothelial carcinoma (UC) can occur multifocally in the whole urothelium. A higher rate of bilateral metachronous upper tract (UT) UC was noted in Taiwan. The incidence and risk factors were largely unknown and hence were explored in the study. METHODS: From January 1977 through June 2003, 462 patients with unilateral UT-UC were studied retrospectively. The cumulative incidence of contralateral recurrence was analysed with the Kaplan-Meier analysis. Potential risk factors for contralateral recurrence including age, smoking, bladder cancer, renal function, diagnostic year etc. were evaluated with the log-rank test. Independent risk factors were identified by using the Cox regression analysis. RESULTS: The median follow-up time was 34 months (6-337). Among the 462 patients, 52 (11.3%) developed metachronous contralateral UC. The 2, 5, and 10-year contralateral disease-free survivals were 93.5%, 84.0%, and 75.7%, respectively. The median time to contralateral recurrence was 31.0 months. With the univariate analysis, only poor renal function (serum creatinine < or > OR =2.0 mg/dL, P < 0.001) and late diagnostic year (before or after 1990, P < 0.001) were risk factors for contralateral recurrence. In the multivariate analysis, poor renal function (hazard ratio: 2.98; 95% confidence interval: 1.67-5.33; P < 0.001) and late diagnostic year (hazard ratio: 4.27; 95% confidence interval: 1.71-10.65; P = 0.002) remained independent risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of metachronous UT-UC is high in Taiwan. Patients who had either chronic renal insufficiency or a disease diagnosed after 1990 had a higher risk of contralateral recurrence.     

复发性胶质瘤再手术治疗的探讨

目的 探讨复发性胶质瘤患者再手术的效果。方法 对22例复发性胶质瘤患者再手术前的功能状态、两次手术间隔时间及手术切除的程度与术后存活期等资料进行临床和统计学分析。结果 第二次手术前生活能自理或半自理的病人（Kamofsky计分≥60）平均生存期约16月，生活不能自理的病人（Kamofsky计分〈60）平均生存期约6月（P〈0．01）。两次手术间隔时间大于1年者平均生存期约17月，间隔时间小于半年者平均生存期约6月（P〈0．01）。手术肿瘤全切除者平均生存期约15月，次全切除者平均生存期约10月（P〈0．05）。结论 术前功能情况好，手术间隔时间大于1年及术中全切肿瘤者再手术治疗可获得较好效果。

精神分裂症异质性及其中枢五羟色胺功能研究

本文应用高效液相色谱(HPLC)对67例精神分裂症及10例健康对照组脑脊液中色氨酸(TRP)、五羟色胺(5-HT)、五羟吲哚乙酸(5-HIAA)进行测试,同时引入5-HT相对代谢率概念用5-HIAA/5-HT表示,并以Andreasen分型标准划分42例阳性精神分裂症和25例阴性精神分裂症。结果发现,精神分裂症患者脑脊液中TRP明显低于正常对照组,阳性(Ⅰ型)分裂症5-HIAA以及5-HIAA/5-HT明显低于阴性(Ⅱ型)精神分裂症,并对精神分裂症的5-HT代谢障碍假说及其异质性进行了讨论。     

痧斯病(SARS)

严重急性呼吸道综合征(severe acute respiratory syndrome，SARS)是由SARS相关冠状病毒(SCV)引起的一种新的烈性呼吸遗传染病。急性期重症病例肺部病变为严重的急性间质性渗出性炎，类似呼吸窘迫综合征的病理特征。肺外器官主要为出血坏死性炎。临床诊断是一个动态的过程，随着对SARS认识的加深，诊断标准将会不新完善。文中对命名进行了讨论，中文名建议用痧斯病。     

Effects of Pharmacological Autonomic Blockade on Dual Atrioventricular Nodal Pathways Physiology in Patients with Slow-Fast Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia

The purpose of this study was to investigate the atrioventricular AV nodal physiology and the inducibility of AV nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) under pharmacological autonomic blockade (AB). Seventeen consecutive patients (6 men and 11 women, mean age 39 ± 17 years) with clinical recurrent slow-fast AVNRT received electrophysiological study before and after pharmacological AB with atropine (0.04 mg/kg) and propranolol (0.2 mg/kg). In baseline, all 17 patients could be induced with AVNRT, 5 were isoproterenol-dependent. After pharmacological AB, 12 (71 %) of 17 patients still demonstrated AV nodal duality. AVNRT became noninducible in 7 of 12 nonisoproterenol dependent patients and remained noninducible in all 5 isoproterenol dependent patients. The sinus cycle length (801 ± 105 ms vs 630 ± 80 ms, P < 0.005) and AV blocking cycle length (365 ± 64 ms vs 338 ± 61 ms, P < 0.005) became shorter after AB. The antegrade effective refractory period and functional refractory period of the fast pathway (369 ± 67 ms vs 305 ± 73 ms, P < 0.005; 408 ± 56 ms vs 350 ± 62 ms, P < 0.005) and the slow pathway (271 ± 30 ms vs 258 ± 27 ms, P < 0.01; 344 ± 60 ms vs 295 ± 50 ms, P < 0.005) likewise became significantly shortened. However, the ventriculoatrial blocking cycle length (349 ± 94 ms vs 326 ± 89 ms, NS) and effective refractory period of retrograde fast pathway (228 ± 38 ms vs 240 ± 80 ms, NS) remained unchanged after autonomic blockade. Pharmacological AB unveiling the intrinsic AV nodal physiology could result in the masking of AV nodal duality and the decreased inducibility of clinical AVNRT.     

几种化合物对石棉诱发肺泡巨噬细胞产生一氧化氮的抑制作用

为了寻求一种适宜的石棉表面改性剂，利用体外细胞培养技术，通过测定培养液中亚硝酸根（ＮＯ－２）含量，观察了茫崖产温石棉对豚鼠肺泡巨噬细胞（ＡＭ）产生一氧化氮（ＮＯ）的诱导作用以及混合稀土、亚硒酸钠、柠檬酸铝对石棉诱发ＡＭ产生ＮＯ的影响。结果显示，温石棉纤维可使培养液中ＮＯ－２浓度升高，并呈明显的剂量反应关系；混合稀土、亚硒酸钠、柠檬酸铝均可抑制石棉诱发ＡＭ产生ＮＯ，而且随上述化合物浓度的升高，抑制作用增强。提示用混合稀土和亚硒酸钠拮抗石棉的致病作用有实际应用的可能。     

输精管结扎对家兔心功能及心肌NE含量的影响

本实验用日本大耳白兔复制输精管结扎的长期动物模型，分为结扎２５月组（ＶＧ２５），同龄假手术２５月组（ＳＯＧ２５）；结扎６月组（ＶＧ６），同龄假手术６月组（ＳＯＧ６）。记录各组家兔心功能，检测心肌及血清ＮＥ含量，称取心重（ＷＨ）。结果表明，左心室收缩期末压（ＬＶＳＰ），ＶＧ略高于ＳＯＧ；左心室舒张末压（ＬＶＥＤＰ），Ｖ６２５显著的低于ＳＯＧ２５Ｐ＜０．０５），ＶＧ６与５ＯＧ６比较虽无显著差异，也呈低值；±ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ，ＶＧ均明显高于ＳＯＧ（Ｐ＜０．０１）。相关检验表明，＋ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ与血清及心肌ＮＥ含量无相关性；心重与＋ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ呈明显正相关，Ｐ＜０．０５；在２５月组，ＬＶＳＰ与＋ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ呈正相关，Ｐ＜０．０５。提示输精管结扎可提高心肌收缩功能。
