目的　探讨 IL - 4和 IL - 10在诱导异种骨移植免疫耐受中的作用。方法　反应细胞为 BAL B/c小鼠脾淋巴细胞 ,刺激细胞为新西兰白兔血淋巴细胞 ,刺激抗原为兔骨上清液。采用经典的混合淋巴细胞培养法及骨上清液与淋巴细胞混合培养法作为异种骨移植的体外实验模型。在各培养液中分别加入 IL - 4、IL - 10及两者联合应用 ,通过测定其 3H- Td R掺入率 ,观察不同细胞因子对刺激淋巴细胞增殖的影响。结果　无论在细胞刺激组还是骨上清液刺激组 ,IL- 4对淋巴细胞增殖均有显著抑制作用 (P<0 .0 0 1和 P<0 .0 5 ) ,IL- 10未表现出抑制作用 (P>0 .0 5 )。在两组 IL- 4和 IL - 10联合应用均产生比 IL - 4单独应用更为明显的细胞增殖抑制作用 (P<0 .0 0 1和 P<0 .0 5 )。结论　 IL - 4对由细胞或骨上清液刺激产生的淋巴细胞增殖均有很好的抑制作用 ,IL- 10没有表现出抑制作用 ;IL- 4与 IL- 10联合应用有协同抑制作用。     

The effect of plasma solutes on total-body-water measurements via NMR.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been reported as an alternative method for quantitating deuterium oxide concentrations in the evaluation of total-body-water in humans. However, the presence of dissolved plasma proteins results in an underestimation of deuterium NMR (2H-NMR) intensity ratios, thereby causing an overestimation (5-6%) of total-body-water (TBW) values determined from nonsublimed patient plasma samples. We demonstrate that plasma samples must be corrected for the volume percentage of water in plasma. Correction of initial 2H-NMR intensity ratios with a factor of 0.93 results in intensity ratios comparable to those determined from plasma samples subjected to vacuum sublimation to remove all plasma solutes.     

CT在外伤性胃肠道穿孔急诊中的价值

目的:探讨急诊外伤性胃肠穿孔的CT征象及诊断价值。方法:收集18例经手术证实的外伤性胃肠道穿孔的临床资料及CT征象,分析与总结胃肠道破裂穿孔CT扫描的各种有价值的表现。结果:18例外伤急诊患者中,胃、十二指肠、空回肠与结肠穿孔各1,2,12,3例,其中空回肠为多处破裂,CT主要征象为腹腔散在积液征、游离气腹征、肠系膜与肠壁增厚模糊征、造影剂外溢征。结论:CT扫描在外伤性胃肠道穿孔急诊患者的检查中有定性诊断价值,综合分析各种征象,会明显提高CT的诊断正确率。     

第三脑室脑膜瘤(九例报告及文献回顾)

目的探讨第三脑室脑膜瘤的组织发生学、临床特点和外科治疗。方法报道9例经影像学、手术和病理学证实的第三脑室脑膜瘤，并回顾相关文献。结果第三脑室前部脑膜瘤5例，第三脑室后部脑膜瘤4例，平均发病年龄25．6岁，无明显性别差异；最常见的症状是梗阻性脑积水，缺乏硬脑膜附着为其影像学特征。肿瘤全切除6例。结论第三脑室脑膜瘤是一种罕见的脑室内脑膜瘤，起源于中间帆脉络组织或脉络丛，经半球间裂-胼胝体-穹隆间入路是合理的手术路径选择。     

腹腔镜肝切除术患者的护理

笔者报道腹腔镜肝切除术患者的护理。术前进行心理护理和呼吸训练；术后注意早期活动，加强腹腔镜CO2气腹后的观察、护理，做好皮下气肿、胆漏、出血、高碳酸血症和下肢静脉血栓等术后并发症的观察及护理。认为周到细致的护理是手术成功的重要保证。     

Addressing quality of life issues in adolescents: social skills interventions.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether social skills training can improve the social interaction skills of adolescents with craniofacial conditions (CFCs) in a natural environment (school lunchroom). DESIGN: This study used a pre-post between-group comparison design. Differences between treatment and control subjects were analyzed via a repeated measures analysis of variance. SETTING: The observations were conducted in the respective school lunch-rooms of the adolescents. Social skills groups were conducted in an outpatient clinic setting. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Structured data based on 45 minutes of observation was coded for type, frequency, and duration of social contact. Specific measures included subject initiations and responses, peer initiations and responses, conversation events, total positive communication, and frequency of nondirected comments. RESULTS: Both target and peer-controlled total communication improved across time with adolescents receiving social skills intervention showing significantly more improvement than those adolescents not receiving direct social skills interventions. Adolescents receiving treatment participated in significantly more target initiated conversations lasting at least three interchanges and showed a trend toward a greater frequency of target initiations and positive responses to peer initiations. Peers were more likely to respond to treatment subject initiations after intervention. Fewer treatment subjects used nondirected communication, whereas control subjects continued to use nondirected communication at a slightly increased frequency. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides preliminary evidence that social skills training can increase the frequency of positive social interactions with peers for adolescents with CFCs.     

Use of a violence risk assessment tool in an acute care hospital: effectiveness in identifying violent patients.

This study examined the use and effectiveness of the Alert assessment form. The form is part of the Alert system, used by one large acute care hospital to identify patients with a propensity for violence. All reported incidents of patient violence from August 1, 2003, through December 31, 2004, were included in patient charts. One hundred seventeen violent patient charts were reviewed and compared with 161 non-violent patient charts, randomly chosen from the same time period. Overall use of the Alert assessment form for violent and non-violent patients was 75.7% and 35.4%, respectively. The assessment form was found to have moderate sensitivity (71%) and high specificity (94%). It is reasonably effective in identifying potentially violent or aggressive patients when it is used according to protocol. Efforts to improve the tool are warranted, as is evaluation of its benefit in settings with low prevalence of violence. Also, greater effort must be taken to prevent violence once an aggressive patient has been identified.     

Evaluating clinical skills of RN students

A clinical performance examination was developed for basic baccalaureate nursing students and used to validate the clinical skills of registered nurses entering a baccalaureate degree program. With few exceptions, RNs returning to school demonstrated clinical competence in the secondary care area as measured by this examination. Therefore, another means of validating RN clinical skills was developed based on the evaluation criteria used for the clinical performance examination. Using employer and colleague validation, students individually documented competence in the area of practice. There was a decrease in student stress, an increase in self-esteem, conservation of the time and energy of students and faculty, and more effective use of program resources.
