Bone growth patterns in Chinese children and adolescents: a 6-year follow-up study provides evidence for sexual dimorphism and tracking

Summary We prospectively examined bone growth patterns in 894 children aged 6–17 years at the baseline visit, with a 6-year follow-up. Results show bone “tracking” over a six-year interval and sexual dimorphism of bone attained levels and timing of peak bone growth. Our findings underscore childhood and adolescence as critical periods for building bone and developing gender differences. Introduction Bone growth patterns were prospectively examined in 894 Chinese children (496 males), aged 6–17 yrs, from a population-based twin cohort. Whole-body bone area (BA), bone mineral content (BMC), and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured by DEXA at baseline and a 6-yr follow-up. Methods Graphic smoothing plots and generalized estimating equations were used to model bone attained levels, growth, and “tracking”. Results Attained levels of BMC and BA increased curvilinearly with age. Male attained levels were higher than females after age ∼15 yr, but BMD was lower between 13–17 yrs (Tanner stage I to IV). In both genders, peak BMC and BMD growth lagged ∼2 yrs behind peak BA growth, which lagged 2 yrs behind peak height growth. Peak bone growth occurred 1–3 yrs later in males. Over the 6-yr follow-up, all bone measurements “tracked”, but “shifting” across ranks also occurred, and baseline tertile ranking influenced bone growth. Females with early menarche had higher attained levels than females with late menarche at age 12–13 yrs. Conclusion Our findings confirm and expand previous studies on peak bone growth conducted in Caucasian cohorts, particularly sexually dimorphic and maturational effects. The significant “tracking” of bone measurements in this 6-yr follow-up study underscores the importance that osteoporosis prevention should begin in childhood and adolescence.

Subtotal resection of clavicle for chronic, recurrent, multifocal osteomyelitis in children

Chronic, recurrent, multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an obscure disease of bone, occurring in children. It appears to be an inflammatory condition with no obvious microbiological cause. Current treatments of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication appear to have limited success. This case report looks at two separate cases of CRMO where partial resection of the affected bone—the clavicle—leads to complete resolution of symptoms and regrowth of the excised bone.     

脾切除治疗原发性骨髓纤维化适应证的探讨

目的：探讨脾切除治疗原发性骨髓纤维化的可行性及其效果。方法：回顾性分析我院2000年1月至2006年12月间收治的5例行脾切除治疗原发性骨髓纤维化的病人资料。结果：本组病人均行脾切除术，其中2例加行贲门周围血管离断术．术后发生脾窝积液1例，肺部感染1例。随访3月至5年，病人贫血状况、左上腹疼痛症状均得到缓解．生活质量得到改善。结论：脾切除对有适应证的原发性骨髓纤维化是可行的治疗手段，可明显改善病人的症状，提高生活质量。     

内乳淋巴结在乳腺癌治疗中的重要性

目的探讨乳腺癌术后内乳淋巴结复发的原因,强调内乳淋巴结在乳腺癌治疗中的重要性。方法回顾性分析40例以内乳淋巴结转移为首先复发的女性乳腺癌患者的临床资料、初发病时的临床特征、手术方式、术后病理分期以及治疗经过。结果40例患者内乳淋巴结复发与患者年龄、经期状况、手术方式无关(P>0.05)。而与原发肿瘤直径、部位、腋窝淋巴结阳性数、临床病理分期相关(P<0.05)。结论位于乳腺内侧区、中央区的大块肿瘤(>3cm),腋窝淋巴结阳性数多(>3),且临床病理分期晚(IIb IIIab)的乳腺癌患者,内乳淋巴结转移机率较高,须加强术后综合治疗。     

角膜基质细胞体外长期培养过程中生物学特性的改变

目的 研究兔角膜基质细胞在体外长期培养传代过程中,细胞增殖能力和胞外基质表达水平的改变。方法 取体外培养兔角膜基质细胞,由光镜对各代细胞的形态学变化进行观测。通过对各代细胞生长曲线的绘制,得出其各自的群体倍增时间;MTT法比较各代细胞增殖能力的改变。RT-PCR和Western杂交检测各代细胞中Ⅰ、Ⅲ型胶原表达水平的改变;爱茜蓝法检测糖胺聚糖(GAG)的含量。结果 体外培养兔角膜基质细胞随着传代的进程,逐渐显现衰老的形态特征。细胞群体倍增时间由第7代起显著延长(P<0.01);MTT比色法的结果亦显示,第7代细胞的增殖能力开始大幅下降(P<0.01)。第9-11代时,Ⅰ、Ⅲ型胶原在mRNA和蛋白水平的表达都有明显减少(P<0.01),降至第1代细胞的30％左右;GAG的含量也降至40％左右。结论 兔角膜基质细胞经历长期体外培养后,细胞增殖能力和胞外基质表达水平显著下降,逐渐丧失原有的功能。但作为构建组织工程化角膜的种子细胞,在它的生物学特性未发生改变之前,经3次传代培养,获取的细胞量达到组织块消化所得细胞的240倍左右,已足以用于构建之用。     

何以解忧惟有监管

没有监督的权力会导致腐败，这是一个显而易见的道理。尽管每一组织、机构、行业乃至个人都必须建立和遵从各自的行业道德和职业操守，但保证每个社会单元都能进退有序，除了建章立制的条令约束，更需要来自第三方的行之有效的监管。事关民生疾苦的医疗卫生无疑首当其冲。     

早期糖尿病视网膜病变的视网膜电图分析

目的 分析早期糖尿病视网膜病变(DR)的闪光视网膜电图(F—ERG)和视网膜电图震荡电位(OPs)各参数的变化特点，寻找反映早期DR的敏感指标。方法 对16例(32只眼)正常人进行OPs和F-ERG检测。对27例(53只眼)糖尿病病人进行眼底荧光血管造影(FFA)、OPs和F—ERG检测。结果 OPs中Os波幅、O4波幅、OPs总波幅及F-ERG中b波峰潜时较其他指标敏感，其中O4波幅和b波峰潜时为最敏感指标，但均不能反映早期DR的严重程度。结论 OPs的O4波幅和F—ERG的b波峰潜时可作为早期糖尿病视网膜病变诊断的敏感指标。     

Carotid sinus nerve blockade to reduce blood pressure instability following carotid endarterectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVES: Local anaesthetic infiltration into the carotid sinus during carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been recommended to minimise blood pressure fluctuations but its use remains controversial. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine whether intra-operative administration of local anaesthetic reduces the incidence of haemodynamic instability following CEA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A search of the Medline, Pubmed and Embase databases and the Current Controlled Trials register identified four trials, which met the pre-defined inclusion criteria for data extraction. Pooled odds ratios with 95 per cent confidence intervals (c.i.) for the development of post-operative hypotension and hypertension were calculated using a random-effects model. RESULTS: Outcomes of 432 patients were studied. Local anaesthetic blockade of the carotid sinus was associated with a pooled odds ratio of 1.25 (95 per cent c.i. 0.496 to 3.15); p=0.216) and 1.28 (95 per cent c.i. 0.699 to 2.33; p=0.428) for the development of post-operative hypotension and hypertension respectively. Although none reach significance there was a trend towards increased risk of developing a complication in those patients who received local anaesthetic. CONCLUSIONS: There are insufficient data to determine the role of intra-operative local anaesthetic administration in reducing post-operative blood pressure lability following CEA. Conversely, the possibility of harm cannot be excluded on the basis of the currently available data.
