乙醇对人绒毛孕酮分泌的影响

本工作利用灌流技术观察了四种不同浓度的乙醇(0.5％、1％、2.5％、5％)对妊娠早期人工流产新鲜胎盘绒毛分泌孕酮的影响。结果表明,乙醇具有促进孕酮分泌的作用,并存在剂量依赖的关系。提示乙醇可能破坏胎盘激素内分泌的平衡,从而影响胎儿的正常生长与发育。     

Prevalence of neutralizing antibodies to adenoviral serotypes 5 and 35 in the adult populations of The Gambia, South Africa, and the United States

One of the major limitations of the use of adenoviruses as gene therapy vectors is the existence of preformed immunity in various populations. Recent studies have linked failure of adenoviral gene therapy trials to the presence of antiadenoviral neutralizing antibodies (NAb). Understanding the distribution and specificity of such antibodies will assist in the design of successful recombinant adenoviral gene therapies and vaccines. To assess the prevalence of NAb to adenovirus serotypes 5 and 35 (Ad5 and Ad35), we analyzed serum samples from adult immunocompetent individuals living in The Gambia, South Africa, and the United States by using a neutralization assay. Serum samples were incubated with A549 lung carcinoma cells and adenoviruses encoding enhanced green or yellow fluorescent proteins; results were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Using this technique, we found a high prevalence of NAb against Ad5 in Gambian, South African, and U.S. subjects at both low and high titers. Conversely, all subjects displayed a low prevalence of NAb to Ad35; when present, anti-Ad35 NAb were seen at low titers. Because of the ability of adenoviruses to elicit systemic and mucosal immune responses, Ad35 with its low NAb prevalence appears to be an attractive candidate vector for gene therapy applications.     

抗体包被对红细胞变形性影响的研究

作者对抗体包被的红为性进行研究，发现抗体包被改变了红细胞的变形性，在我们研究的抗体量范围内，抗体量越多，红细胞的变形性越小，作者从血液流变学的角度对上述结果作了讨论，并提出了通过测定其对红细胞变形性的影响来比较准确地标定抗体效价的可能性。

腰骶部SPR术中脊神经前后根定位的应用解剖

目的：为ＳＰＲ提供可靠的术中脊神经前、后根鉴别的解剖学依据。方法：在２０例成人脊柱标本上,去除后部结构,暴露整个马尾神经,对Ｌ１～Ｓ２节段的前后根进行形态学观察和测量。结果：脊神经后根位于马尾的后半部,前根则位于前半部。脊神经后根较相应的前根粗大,后根从Ｌ１～Ｓ１逐渐增大,以Ｓ１为最粗大;前根则以Ｌ３最粗大。相应前后根出硬脊膜前,有一段相互贴附并紧贴硬脊膜侧壁。结论：在多椎板切除ＳＰＲ术中前、后根的定位及鉴别,暴露时可根据前、后根出硬脊膜前的相互贴附;在限制性椎板切除时则可通过脊髓外侧索和Ｌ１前、后根之间的最下端的齿状韧带加以鉴别     

Endocarditis with ruptured cerebral aneurysm caused by Cardiobacterium valvarum sp. nov

A fastidious gram-negative bacterium was isolated from the blood of a 37-year-old man who had insidious endocarditis with a sudden rupture of a cerebral aneurysm. Characterization of the organism through phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses revealed a novel species of Cardiobacterium, for which the name Cardiobacterium valvarum sp. nov. is proposed. C. valvarum will supplement the current sole species Cardiobacterium hominis, a known cause of endocarditis. Surgeries and antibiotic treatment cured the patient's infection and associated complications. During cardiac surgery, a congenital bicuspid aortic valve was found to be the predisposing factor for his endocarditis.
