细胞凋亡抑制因子（Fas／APO-1）与抗β2-肾上腺素能受体自身抗体的关系

目的 检测并比较心肌梗死急性期不同时间点，β2自身抗体阳性组与阴性组，患者血清中Fas／APO-1水平差异，了解β2自身抗体对Fas／APO-1的影响。方法 41例急性心肌梗死患者，分别于发病24h、7天、2～4周时取血，采用ELISA的方法，检测血清中β2自身抗体的阳性率以及Fas／APO-1的水平；另外取34位性别、年龄匹配的健康人的血同法检测Fas／APO-1作为对照。结果心肌梗死急性期Fas／APO-1的水平均高于对照组（P〈0．05），以梗死后24hFas／APO-1的水平为最高；心肌梗死急性期不同时间点，β2自身抗体阳性组Fas／APO-1的水平均高于阴性组，但两组的结果差异无显著性（P〉0．05）。结论 血清Fas／APO-1水平可以在一定程度上反映心肌细胞凋亡的变化趋势，β2自身抗体对Fas／APO-1的确切影响，有待更大规模的实验来证实。     

Modulation of mild bleeding disorder during remissions and exacerbations of Graves' disease

A patient with Graves' disease had a symptomatic thrombocytopathy during periods of remission. When euthyroid, she noticed bruising, petechiae, and epistaxis. Hemostatic abnormalities included prolongation of the bleeding time by aspirin, reduced platelet retention (a second-phase defect), and abnormal thrombin-induced aggregation and serotonin release. When hyperthyroid, bleeding symptoms resolved, and platelet function returned to normal. These observations suggest that mild bleeding disorders may be influenced either directly or indirectly by thyroid hormone levels.     

Computed tomography of the brain in the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome

Computed tomographic (CT) scans of the brain in a child with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome revealed enlargement of the ventricular system, hypoplasia of the cerebellum, and abnormal thickening of the gray matter, consistent with pachygyria. These findings have been previously noted in autopsies performed on patients with this disorder. We conclude that CT scanning is a valuable tool in the evaluation of children suspected of having the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome.     

HBsAg母婴传播的研究

对HBsAg(+)母亲所生婴幼儿,连续两年的动态观察,发现这些婴幼儿的感染绝大多数皆在出生3个月后,其感染频率与母亲HBsAg的滴度成正相关,表明母婴传播阻断应以HBsAg(+)母亲所生之子女为重点对象。     

港九海底铁路建设中的减压病——工作条件与发病关系探讨

本文介绍香港九龙海底铁路建设中高气压作业与减压病发病情况。该工程有11条坑道,共计259 448个高压工作日,减压288 140人次,发生减压病1 534例。根据不同的工作压力,以暴露次数、高压工作日数及暴露4小时以上次数3种方法分别计算减压病发病率。结果表明:各种方法计算出的发病率都有随工作压力增高而上升的趋势,说明现用的减压表对不同的工作压力达不到同样的预防效果。本文还对3大主要工种和14个小工种的减压病作了分析。     

Cytophotometric investigations on atypical epithelial cells of the human seminal vesicle

Normal seminal vesicles were studied histologically in 80, and by Feulgen’s cytophotometric method in 10 autopsied cases (males, 44–82 years of age). In every case large, hyperchromatic nuclei were found. By cytophotometry euploid polyploid atypia was also shown in every case, which is characteristic of benign hormonal dysplasia.
