颈椎术后病人首次下床活动的感受及需求的调查

早期下床活动的必要性已得到大家认可,但术后早期病人常常较虚弱,且下床活动时会引发一些不适,病人也会有一些担心和顾虑,这在一定程度上会影响病人下床活动的积极性。颈椎手术本身有其特殊性,术后对颈部的稳定要求较高,因此此类病人活动有其特点。本研究以颈椎术后已下床活动的病人为研究对象,通过问卷调查,了解颈椎手术后病人首次下床的感受和相关需求,为进一步提高颈椎术后护理质量提供依据。1资料和方法1.1对象采用方便取样,选取2005年4月—2005年6月在某三甲医院因颈椎病入院、术后已下床活动的病人75例。其中男54例,女21例;年龄28岁~7…

Buccal mucosal graft for urethral reconstruction.

Urethral reconstruction with graft substances, such as skin and bladder mucosa, has been previously used when primary anastomosis cannot be achieved. However, stricture and meatal prolapse are associated with these grafts. We report the use of buccal mucosa for the reconstruction of urethral defects in 3 patients. One patient with failed operation for hypospadias received tube buccal mucosal graft for urethral replacement. Two patients with urethral necrosis and stricture received onlay buccal mucosal graft. All patients were disease-free during follow-up (range, 12 to 49 months; mean, 36 months). One patient had a pinhole fistula that was successfully managed with simple repair. This technique appears to be useful for urethral reconstruction when a local graft is not available, even in patients with complicated conditions.

Evaluation of Class I ART restorations in Brazilian schoolchildren: three-year results

Atraumetic Restorative Treatment (ART) has been adopted around the world to avoid unnecessary extractions, especially in non-industrialized countries The development of specific glass ionomer cements marketed for the ART technique has contributed to the technical success rate. In this study. Ketac-Molar^a (3M ESPE. Dental Medzn Germany) was used to restore 150 Class I cavities in 118 Brazilian public school children, aged from 7–12 years. At baseline and at subsequent recalls. CPI probes with a ball-end of 0.5 millimeters (mm) were used to assess loss of restorative material, and photographic color transparencies of restorations were made. After six months. 83 patients returned for follow-up examinations, with 71.8% of their restorations designated as acceptable. After three years. 49 patients with 57 ART-restorations were evaluated, with 21.0% of these restorations graded as acceptable Another 29.8% of their restorations had been replaced by more permanent materials. The main objective of the ART technique is tooth retention; this was achieved for 94.7% of the restored teeth in a high caries risk population who returned for recalls.     

Palmitic acid as an excipient in implants for sustained release of insulin

Sustained-release implants for insulin can be made by compressing a powder admixture with palmitic acid as the excipient. At less than 20%, insulin does not disperse uniformly in the admixture. The size distribution of the excipient particles obtained after grinding for 15 min does not affect the sustained release action. When tested in a 33 d period, an 1/8-size piece (approximately 25 mg) implant cut from a pellet disc containing 20% insulin which is 13 mm in diameter and 1.5 mm thick released 0.12-0.17 mg insulin/d in diabetic Wistar rats. The 1/8-size piece containing 20% insulin or a rod of similar weight with a diameter of 3 mm, which can be inserted by a trocar, was optimal for the implant to provide a service-life of 49 +/- 7 d. The service-life decreased with progressive reduction in implant size. The implant functioned just as well subcutaneously or intraperitoneally and was eroded subcutaneously by 33.6-53.1% in 33 d. The glycosylated haemoglobin contents of diabetic animals on implant therapy which had a blood glucose level of 4.7 +/- 2.5 mmol/l were in a range of 6.2-8.9% compared to the control value of greater than 13% with chronic hyperglycemia. The overall results indicated that the implant was a promising alternative to daily insulin injections.     

Microarray analysis of healing rat Achilles tendon: evidence for glutamate signaling mechanisms and embryonic gene expression in healing tendon tissue.

Tendon healing is a complex process consisting of a large number of intricate pathways roughly divided into the phases of inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Although these processes have been extensively studied at a variety of levels in recent years, there is still much that remains unknown. This study used microarray analyses to investigate the process at a genetic level in healing rat Achilles tendon at 1, 7, and 21 days postinjury, roughly representing the inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling phases. An interesting temporal expression profile was demonstrated, identifying both known and novel genes and pathways involved in the progression of tendon healing. Both inflammatory response and pro-proliferative genes were shown to be significantly upregulated from 24 h postinjury through to 21 days. Day 7 showed the largest increase in genetic activity, particularly with the expression of collagens and other extracellular matrix genes. Interestingly, there was also evidence of central nervous system-like glutamate-based signaling machinery present in tendon cells, as has recently been shown in bone. This type of signaling mechanism has not previously been shown to exist in tendon. Another novel finding from these analyses is that there appears to be several genes upregulated during healing which have exclusively or primarily been characterized as key modulators of proliferation and patterning during embryonic development. This may suggest that similar pathways are employed in wound healing as in the tightly regulated progression of growth and development in the embryo. These results could be of use in designing novel gene-based therapies to increase the efficacy and efficiency of tendon healing.

Laryngeal tuberculosis: a review of 26 cases.

OBJECTIVES: To review the clinical characteristics of laryngeal tuberculosis. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Medical records of 26 histopathology-confirmed cases in a tertiary medical center from 1992 to 2006. RESULTS: The female patients were significantly younger than male patients. Hoarseness is the most common symptom (84.6%) because true vocal fold is most commonly involved (80.8%). Infection usually involves unilateral (66.7%) and right-side larynx but multiple subsites of the larynx (57.7%). The appearance of the affected larynx may have mixed features and change before diagnosis. Laryngeal tuberculosis is usually misdiagnosed as laryngeal cancer, especially in patients with malignant signs such as enlarged cervical lymph nodes and vocal fold immobility. Chest film is better than sputum examinations for screening. CONCLUSION: We should be especially alert about TB infection when facing young female patients with unusual laryngeal lesions. Extensive laser excision before diagnosis should be avoided because after antituberculous treatment, prognosis is usually good and vocal fold immobility could be reversible.
