Pulmonary Lophomonas blattarum infection in patients with kidney allograft transplantation

The aim of the study was to analyse the clinical manifestation and management of pulmonary Lophomonas blattarum infection in four allograft transplantation recipients retrospectively. Four patients with pulmonary L. blattarum infection were diagnosed by using Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) examination. Their clinical manifestation and management are summarized. Four cases of pulmonary L. blattarum were found during the period from the second month to the third month after transplantation. Concurring infection by other pathogens was found in three of them. Common initial symptoms included fever (>38 degrees C) without cough and breathlessness. Lower lobe shadowing could be found on chest X-ray. Body temperature decreased to the normal range in three patients and to 37.5 degrees C in the other one, after intravenous injection of metronidazole and tapering immunosuppressant. Radiological examination confirmed improved health condition of the patients afterwards. Two patients received repeated FOB and only dead L. blattarum was found. Pulmonary L. blattarum infection in allograft transplant recipients carry relatively obscure initial symptoms. Possible L. blattarum infection needs to be screened in post-transplantation pulmonary infection patients with similar symptoms, especially in those who respond poorly to anti-infection treatment. Microscopic examination of BAL fluid can help to identify pulmonary L. blattarum infection and metronidazole is an ideal treatment choice.     

暗纹节菱孢所致皮肤真菌病组织病理学及超微结构观察

本文报告了暗纹节菱孢[Arthinium phaeospemum（Corda）Ellis]所致皮肤真菌病的组织病理学及超微结构观察。HE、PAS、镀银染色（Szatri）法及铅铀染色，对皮损的组织病理改变，进行了光镜及透射电镜观察。光镜下发现暗纹节菱孢引起真皮及皮下脂肪组织广泛性病理浸润，由多种细胞构成的肉芽肿，尤其对皮肤附属器严重破坏。在病理浸润中可见球形、卵圆形、菱形及晶体形，玫瑰红色、棕色及褐色孢子。透射电镜下见真皮成纤维细胞胞浆内吞噬多数界线清楚的圆形小体，空泡内也有相同的小体，胞浆空泡甚多，胞核完整。同时见到破坏的溶酶体。病理浸润内形态各异的孢子及不同颜色，是孢子生长的不同阶段。     

Efficacy and safety of herbal medicines for idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a systematic review.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of herbal medicines (HMs), as a monotherapy or adjunct therapy, compared to placebo or conventional approaches in the treatment of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). We conducted a systematic review of randomized controlled trials from both conventional and alternative medicine sources. Outcome measures were overall improvement, quality of life, reduction of levodopa dose, and adverse events. Nine studies were included, each testing a different HM. Six of the trials had limited internal validity due to major flaws in design, including the lack of proper randomization; insufficient blinding; unclear inclusive criteria in terms of diagnostic criteria, baseline staging, and duration of disease; lack of proper sample size calculation; and insufficient data analysis. Imbalances in gender and ethnicity among the patients in the included trials were observed. No major adverse events emerged, and no specific pattern was detected from the trials describing such data. In addition to major methodological defects, heterogeneity in (1) HM tested, (2) control treatment, and (3) outcome measure hindered in-depth data analysis and synthesis. Current evidence is insufficient to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various HMs. Further studies with improved trial design and reporting, with assessment on cost-effectiveness, quality of life, and qualitative data are warranted.     

3种霍乱弧菌检测方法在外环境标本中的应用研究

目的：通过改进霍乱弧菌检测的技术手段，提高外环境标本中霍乱弧菌的检出率。方法：将常规分离鉴定法、PCR检测法和胶体金免疫层析试验法同时用于检测霍乱流行期间的外环境标本，并对其现场应用结果进行比较分析。结果：3种方法检测80份外环境标本霍乱弧菌的结果显示：它们均未出现假阳性，3种方法各有优势，且结果相互符合性好，但也存在各自弱点。结论：只用单一种方法来检测外环境标本霍乱弧菌存在明显不足。建议在外环境霍乱监测中选用胶体金法进行初筛，再用常规法和PCR法检测。最大限度减少漏检的可能性。

电针对狗血浆与胃黏膜组织中NO和NOS的影响及其意义

目的　观察电针对狗幽门压力、胃黏膜血流量的调控作用及其与血浆、胃黏膜组织中一氧化氮 (NO) ,一氧化氮合酶 (NOS)水平变化的关系 ,以探讨电针对胃黏膜保护作用的机制。方法　将 2 0只狗随机分为 4组 :空白对照组、非经非穴组、上巨虚组、足三里组 (每组 5只 )。采用胃压测量仪、激光多普勒血流仪监测幽门压力、频率及胃黏膜血流量的变化 ,同步测定血浆及胃黏膜组织中NO ,NOS含量 ,并观察变化规律。结果　电针后足三里组幽门括约肌总压力、基础压下降、频率下降 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,胃黏膜血流量显著升高 (4 .5 1± 0 .73→ 6.90± 1.0 1,P <0 .0 1) ,血浆及胃黏膜组织中NO ,NOS含量显著升高 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,上巨虚组仅幽门括约肌总压力下降 ,血浆NO含量上升。但足三里组各项监测指标变化趋势更明显 ,其他组变化无显著性。结论　电针可使狗幽门压力、频率下降 ,使胃黏膜血流量增加 ,与影响幽门压力、胃黏膜血流量的某些活性物质的含量改变有关 ,并具有一定的经络和穴位特异性。     

Studies of pickled vegetables and cause of esophageal cancer in Linxian. II. Determination of nitrosamines and their precursors]

Pickled vegetables are daily food consumed in the high-risk areas for esophageal cancer in China. We analyzed the nitrosamine content of Linxian pickles by GC/TEA and found that trace amounts of six nitrosamines (NDMA, NDEA, NMBA, NMAMBA, NDPA, NPYR) were present, with the highest concentrations being NDMA and NDEA (1.7 and 1.9 micrograms/kg wet weight respectively). The average level of nitrosamine precursors, such as nitrate (111.22 mg/L), nitrite (0.152 mg/L) and secondary amines (4.223 mg/L), in pickled vegetables were determined, and their pH values ranged from 3 to 5.
