慢性稳定性心绞痛患者肺炎衣原体感染检测的意义

目的　探讨肺炎衣原体感染与慢性稳定性心绞痛患者血中炎症标志物之间的关系。方法　采用微量免疫荧光法 (MIF)和酶联免疫法 (ELISA)对 5 2例经冠状动脉造影证实的慢性稳定心绞痛患者 (CSA)血中肺炎衣原体IgG抗体 (CpIgG)和肿瘤坏死因子 α(TNF α)、白细胞介素 6 (IL 6 )、C 反应蛋白 (CRP)进行检测。结果　在慢性稳定性心绞痛患者组中CpIgG阳性率为 5 5 .77% ;而CpIgG滴度与TNF α、IL 6和CRP单因素及多因素回归分析发现只有CpIgG与TNF α显著相关 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,但与IL 6和CRP之间无显著相关性 (P <0 .0 5 )。在慢性稳定性心绞痛患者中肺炎衣原体感染可能促进TNF α的升高 ,但肺炎衣原体的感染不是导致斑块不稳定的主要因素

In-vitro fertilization and the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Eight patients who developed severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) were identified among 1302 patients undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) over a 1 year period (prevalence of 0.6%); 63% had ultrasonically diagnosed polycystic ovaries (PCO) and 75% were undergoing their first attempt at IVF. Pretreatment with a superactive luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogue significantly increased the prevalence of severe OHSS (1.1% versus 0.2%, P less than 0.05) compared with ovarian stimulation with clomiphene citrate and human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG). The mean serum oestradiol concentration on the day of human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administration was 8200 +/- 2300 pmol/l. A mean of 19.6 +/- 6.8 follicles had been aspirated and 13.1 +/- 7.7 oocytes recovered at transvaginal ultrasound-directed oocyte recovery. All patients had an embryo transfer and luteal support in the form of HCG. The clinical pregnancy rate was 88%, multiple pregnancy rate 71% and implantation rate 63.5 +/- 41.3%. In a group of seven patients who were hospitalized for moderate OHSS during the same period, peak oestradiol levels were significantly lower than in those with severe OHSS (P less than 0.05). Of the group with moderate OHSS, 57% had PCO, the clinical pregnancy rate was 100% and multiple pregnancy rate 43%. Patients with ultrasound-diagnosed PCO have an increased risk of developing OHSS and the dose of HMG administered to them should be minimized. In patients at risk of developing OHSS, progesterone instead of HCG should be used for luteal support. Transfer of a maximum of two embryos or freezing all embryos for transfer in a subsequent cycle may reduce the likelihood of multiple pregnancy.     

The hepatitis B immunization programme in Singapore

A voluntary immunization programme to prevent perinatal transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in Singapore was implemented on 1 October 1985 as an integral component of the national childhood immunization programme. Up to April 1988, a total of 68,845 mothers who attended government maternal and child health clinics were screened for the disease. Of these, 2432 (3.5%) were positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and 904 (1.3%) for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg). Virtually all the babies born to carrier mothers completed the full immunization schedule; and in addition, those of HBeAg-positive mothers were given a dose of hepatitis B immunoglobulin at birth. The hepatitis B immunization programme was extended on 1 September 1987 to cover all newborns. About 90% of the 15,943 babies delivered in government institutions from September 1987 to April 1988 were immunized at birth, with the subsequent doses being administered at maternal and child health clinics at 4-6 weeks and 5 months later. More than 85% of the children given the full course of plasma-derived and yeast-derived hepatitis B vaccine from birth continued to have protective antibody to HBV two years after immunization. The programme is being closely monitored to assess the duration of immunity and the need for booster doses, while seronegative adults are also being encouraged to be vaccinated.     

围产儿与儿童胸腺的病理改变

The most outstanding pathological changes of perinatal babies and children, based on the review of the autopsy files in the 1st Affiliated Hospital of West China University of Medical Sciences, are lymphocytic depletion, and reticuloepithelial cell swelling and/or fusiform malformation in the cortex, while in the medulla apoptosis is more prominent. We suppose that these alterations are due to immaturity of cortical thymocytes, and in the diseased condition, they are easily affected by extraordinary factors, especially the influence of corticosterone inducing acute severe necrosis, so the number of lymphocytes are obviously diminished. But, in the medulla, as intact mature lymphocytes exist, physiological phenomenon such as apoptosis is rather prominent in it. While in the medulla, Hassall's corpuscles have various characteristic changes, such as cornification, calcification, fusion, cystic change and disintegration. Besides, we observed a new alteration in the thymus defined as vacuolization. All the above pathological changes reached the peak in the 28- day group; there after, they might become either worse or better according to the condition of the disease and growth of the body. However, these are still problems to be further studied separately.     

对中国药典诺氟沙星对照品在不同溶媒中的稳定性研究

目的：考察不同溶媒配制的诺氟沙星对照品溶液能否保存。方法：用紫外分光光度法分别对5℃放置的使用不同溶媒的对照品溶液在0d、10d、20d、30d、40d测定最大吸收波长、吸收值。结果；以0．4％NaOH溶液为溶媒的诺氟沙星对照液于5℃放置40d，最大吸收波长、吸收值均未发生变化（无显著性差异P＞0．05）。而以pH4.0醛酸缓冲液、pH7．4磷酸盐缓冲液为溶媒的两种对照液5℃放置40d，最大吸收波长未发生变化，但吸收值明显降低（有显著性差异P＜0．05）。结论：用0．4％NaOH溶液配制的诺氟沙星对照品溶液在适宜的条件下（5℃，避光密闭）保存，40d内是稳定的，可继续使用。而用pH4．0醋酸缓冲注和pH7．4磷酸盐缓冲液配制的诺氟沙星对照品溶液则不能保存使用，必须临用新配。
