从湿热体质论治脂溢性脱发

中医对于脂溢性脱发，传统多按"血热风燥""血虚风燥""湿热""肝肾不足"等分型论治，虽能取得一定的临床疗效，暂时缓解病情，但难以根治，给患者带来困扰。倪诚教授根据国医大师王琦教授所提出的"肤-体相关论""体质可调论"，认为湿热体质是脂溢性脱发发病的主要土壤，指出瘀浊蛀发是脂溢性脱发的病机要点，治疗上以清利湿热调体治本、凉血活血为主、佐以滋养肝肾，方用茵陈蒿汤合升降散加减配合外洗经验方，从标本兼顾、分期论治、内服外洗等方面治疗脂溢性脱发，在临床上取得良好的疗效。     

Prosthetic treatment in the adult French population: Prevalence and relation with demographic,socioeconomic and medical characteristics

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of dental prosthetic treatment and to investigate the demographic, social, economic and medical factors associated with the use of fixed and removable dentures in a representative sample of adults living in France.MethodsThe data were obtained from the 2002–2003 Decennial Health Survey, a cross-sectional study of a representative sample of the population living in France, which included 29,679 adults. Information was collected by interview. The variables collected were fixed denture, removable denture, age, gender, number of children, area of residence, nationality, educational attainment, family social status, employment status, annual household income per capita, supplementary insurance, chronic disease, eyesight problems/glasses, hearing problems/hearing aids. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to study the relationship between prosthetic treatment and demographic, socioeconomic and medical characteristics unadjusted, adjusted for age and adjusted for all the characteristics.ResultsThe prevalence of prosthetic treatment was 34.6% (95% confidence interval (CI): [34.1; 35.2]) for fixed prosthetic dentures and 13.8% (95% CI: [13.4; 14.2]) for removable prosthetic dentures. We showed a gradient between educational attainment and removable dentures; the odds ratio adjusted for all the variables (aOR) associated with no or primary education compared to post-secondary education was 2.56; 95% CI: [2.09; 3.13]. When annual household income per capita was low, subjects were less likely to report fixed dentures (aOR = 0.68; 95% CI: [0.62; 0.75]) than those with high annual household income per capita. Individuals without insurance less often reported fixed dentures than those with private insurance. Those reporting chronic disease were less likely to report fixed dentures (aOR = 0.87; 95% CI: [0.79; 0.95]) but more likely to report removable dentures (aOR = 1.29; 95% CI: [1.17; 1.43]) than those without chronic disease.ConclusionThis study reveals social, economic and medical inequalities in fixed and removable prosthetic treatment among adults in France.     

“T” is for “transgender”: an analysis of children’s picture books featuring transgender protagonists and narrators

ABSTRACT

This project examined 55 picture books featuring transgender, gender expansive or genderqueer protagonists or narrators published between 2008 and 2018. The purpose of the study was to determine how this genre of children’s literature supports and challenges four gender assumptions: the gender binary, gender essentialism, sex/gender congruency and gender stability. Additionally, this critical analysis explored misgendering within this genre and themes of social rejection and acceptance. Protagonists and narrators were permitted a degree of gender nonconformity, however, the majority of picture books missed opportunities for a more complete exploration of gender possibilities.     

颈椎终板弧形高度与椎间隙后缘骨赘的相关性研究

目的：通过对颈椎病患者上下终板弧形高度、椎间隙高度与椎间隙后骨赘的影像学测量，研究其相关性及其临床应用价值。方法：收集2017年9月至2018年9月颈椎病手术108例患者的临床资料，男48例，年龄30~72岁，平均52岁，女60例，年龄37~79岁，平均54岁。其中C_2，3 6例，C_3，4 15例，C_4，5 32例，C_5，6 42例，C_6，7 13例。术前及术后摄颈椎X线片，利用PACS（Picture Archiving and Communication Systems）调阅影像，测量椎间隙的下上终板弧形高度（L₁，L₂），椎间隙高度（L₃）及后方骨赘的宽度（L₄）。利用Spearman分析它们之间的相关性。结果：L₁与L₄对比（r=-0.34，P<0.05），L₃与L₄对比（r=-0.36，P<0.05），存在负相关。L₁与L₃对比（r=0.38，P<0.05），L₂与L₃对比（r=0.48，P<0.05），存在正相关。L₁与L₂对比（P>0.05），L₂与L₄对比（P>0.05），差异无统计学意义。结论：下终板弧形高度与椎间隙后缘骨赘宽度呈负相关，通过其测量可明确颈椎退变程度，对颈椎病的早期防治有指导意义。     

川陈皮素对糖尿病肾病大鼠AMPK和eNOS表达的影响研究

【摘要】目的 观察川陈皮素对糖尿病肾病大鼠的治疗作用，并从腺苷酸蛋白活化激酶（AMPK）和内皮型一氧化氮酶（eNOS）途径探讨其作用机理。方法 采用高脂高糖饲料喂养+链脲佐菌素（STZ）腹腔注射复制2型糖尿病肾脏损害大鼠模型，模型构建成功后，将其随机分为正常组、模型组、贝那普利干预组以及川陈皮素低、中和高剂量治疗组（n=20）。实验中密切监测大鼠一般情况，治疗期结束后收集尿液检测24h蛋白尿，收集血液检测肾功能指标、抗氧化指标，收集肾脏观察肾脏病理学，同时检测肾脏组织中AMPK及eNOS蛋白和mRNA的表达结果。结果 正常组肾小球正常，无明显病理特征；模型组出现肾小球增大，系膜和肾间质纤维组织增生；贝那普利组和川陈皮素三个剂量组相较于模型组明显减轻。与正常组相比，模型组24h尿蛋白定量、UREA、CREA和MDA明显升高(P＜005)；SOD和GSH明显降低(P＜005)，与模型组相比，贝那普利和川陈皮素三个剂量组24h尿蛋白定量、UREA、CREA和MDA明显降低(P＜005)，SOD和GSH明显升高(P＜005)。与正常组相比，模型组p AMPK、AMPK和eNOS蛋白和mRNA表达均明显降低(P＜005)；与模型组相比，贝那普利组和川陈皮素低、中和高剂量组AMPK和eNOS蛋白和mRNA表达明显升高(P＜005)。结论 川陈皮素可保护肾功能，提高血清和肾脏抗氧化指标，同时增加AMPK和eNOS蛋白和mRNA表达，最终保护糖尿病肾脏损害。
