组织多肽特异性抗原在乳腺癌中的临床研究

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of serum tissue polypeptide-specific antigen (TPS) in breast cancer patients and its clinical value in such cases. METHODS: Altogether 160 subjects (90 patients with breast cancer, 40 with benign breast lesions, and 30 healthy subjects) were enrolled in this study. The serum TPS and CA153 levels were measured by ELISA in all the subjects. RESULTS: The levels and positivity rate of serum TPS and CA153 in breast cancer group were significantly higher than those in the normal subjects group and benign lesion group (P<0.01), and became even higher as the malignancy progressed. High serum TPS level was detected in the cancer patients in stage I. Serum TPS level was the most sensitive to bone metastasis of the malignancy, but its highest levels occurred in cases of lymphoid node metastasis (P<0.05). In patients who responded favorably to the treatment, serum TPS and CA153 levels were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but the reduction in TPS levels tended to be more obvious (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Serum TPS can be used as a very useful and sensitive tumor marker in the diagnosis of breast cancer, especially in case of bone metastasis, and may be of great value in clinical decision-making and assessment of therapeutic effect.     

功能性矫治器在正畸矫治中运用的伦理思考

功能性矫治器是正畸临床中常用的一种矫治器，作者从口腔正畸学理论基础出发，探讨了功能性矫治器在正畸矫治作用中存在的伦理道德问题，主要有（1）不能正确的诊断、制定周密的矫治计划。（2）操作不规范、不细致、缺乏敬业精神。（3）态度简单，粗曝，缺乏与患者良好的交流。并提出解决方法（1）刻苦学习专业知识，不断提高诊疗水平及个人修养。（2）建立高度的道德责任感，以严谨的作风，规范的操作为病人服务。（3）尊重、善待青少年，建立良好的医患关系。     

大鼠脑多梗死性栓塞痴呆模型的建立

 目的建立大鼠脑多梗死性痴呆(MID)模型及观察指标,评价药物对该模型的作用。方法采用从颈外动脉逆行注入微血栓颗粒的方法,制备MID模型,通过对术后大鼠的苏醒时间测定、倾斜板实验、神经症状评分3个方面评价动物的一般状态;采用大鼠穿梭箱实验、水迷宫实验检测各组大鼠学习记忆能力;并测定脑中丙二醛(MDA)的含量及超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的活性,考察MID大鼠的行为学异常以及其作用机制。结果MID大鼠与正常组、假手术组比较,苏醒时间明显延长,在倾斜板上停留的时间显著变短,神经症状评分有显著差异;穿梭箱实验中电击时间明显延长,水迷宫实验学习记忆潜伏期延长;同时脑组织中MDA含量明显升高,SOD活力显著降低。给予药物氢化麦角碱(商品名:喜得镇)治疗后症状有所改善。结论该造模方法能显著造成大鼠脑多梗死性痴呆的多项体征,符合临床病理过程,为进一步判定一些药物是否具有治疗MID的前景打下基础。     

A comparative study of etanercept plus methotrexate and methotrexate alone in Taiwanese patients with active rheumatoid arthritis: a 12-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Etanercept (Enbrel), a recombinant tumor necrosis factor receptor fusion protein, has been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of etanercept in combination with methotrexate (MTX) and MTX alone in Taiwanese patients with active RA. METHODS: In this double-blind study, 58 patients with active RA who were maintained on MTX therapy at a stable dose of 12.5 to 20 mg per week for 4 weeks were randomized to receive either etanercept 25 mg (n = 29) or placebo (n = 29) by subcutaneous injection twice weekly over a period of 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was the reduction of tender and swollen joint counts by 20% (ACR 20), 50% (ACR 50), and 70% (ACR 70) as determined by the American College of Rheumatology criteria at the 12th week. RESULTS: The addition of etanercept to MTX resulted in a greater reduction in the number of tender (7.00 vs 2.45, p = 0.012) and swollen joints (8.55 vs 3.86, p = 0.017), and in serum levels of C-reactive protein (1.26 mg/dL vs 0.45 mg/dL, p = 0.014) compared to MTX alone after 12 weeks of therapy. In addition, the global assessment of disease activity by both physicians and patients, duration of morning stiffness, pain visual analog scale score, and Health Assessment Questionnaire were all improved by etanercept plus MTX therapy. Results for the overall improvement in disease activity assessed by ACR 20 (90% vs 34%), ACR 50 (66% vs 10%) and ACR 70 (24% vs 0%) all favored the etanercept plus MTX group. However, the adverse events were comparable between the 2 treatment groups. CONCLUSION: Etanercept in combination with MTX was well tolerated and provided significantly more clinical benefit than MTX alone in Taiwanese patients with active RA.

全身麻醉插管术后院内获得性肺部感染探讨

全身麻醉气管插管术后下呼吸道感染具有较高发生率。分析５２６例手术时间超过４小时普外科病例，经ｕ检验发现全身麻醉气管插管术后患者肺部感染率明显高于持续性硬膜外麻醉术后患者，影响因素主要与全麻插管用具及麻醉机消毒情况有关，也与术前存在慢性阻塞性肺部疾患和术后保留气管插管有关。降低全麻术后肺部感染应重视无菌操作，尽可能对麻醉机管道进行常规消毒。     

Ultrastructural identification of cholinergic neurons in the external cuneate nucleus of the gerbil: acetylcholinesterase histochemistry and choline acetyltransferase immunocytochemistry

Summary Using acetylcholinesterase histochemical and choline acetyltransferase immunocytochemical localization methods, this study has provided conclusive evidence for the existence of cholinergic neurons in the external cuneate nucleus of gerbils. By light microscopy, both acetylcholinesterase and choline acetyltransferase labelling was confined to the rostral portion of the external cuneate nucleus. Ultrastructurally, acetylcholinesterase reaction products were found in the nuclear envelope, cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi saccules of some somata and large dendrites as well as in the membranes of small dendrites, myelinated axons and axon terminals. These neuronal elements were also stained for choline acetyltransferase; immunoreactivity was associated with nuclear pores, nuclear envelope, perikaryal membrane and all the membranous structures within the cytoplasm. Of the total choline acetyltransferase-labelled neuronal profiles analysed, 79% were myelinated axons, 15% dendrites, 4% somata and 2% axon terminals. The immunostained axon terminals consisted of two types containing either round (Rd type; 62.5%) or pleomorphic (Pd type; 37.5%) vesicles. Both were associated directly with choline acetyltransferase-positive dendrites. In contrast to the paucity of choline acetyltransferase-labelled axon terminals, numerous choline acetyltransferase-positive myelinated axons were present. It may thus be hypothesized that most, if not all, of the external cuneate nucleus cholinergic neurons are projection cells; such cells may give rise to axonal collaterals which synapse onto their own dendrites for possible feedback control. Choline acetyltransferase-positive dendrites were contacted by numerous unlabelled presynaptic boutons, 60% of which contained round or spherical synaptic vesicles (Rd boutons) and 40% flattened vesicles (Fd boutons), suggesting that these neurons are under strong inhibitory control. The preferential concentration of cholinergic components in the rostral external cuneate nucleus may be significant in the light of the highly organized somatotopy in the external cuneate nucleus and its extensive efferent projections to medullary autonomic-related nuclei. Our results suggest that the cholinergic neurons may be involved in somatoautonomic integration.
