Pentachlorophenol toxicokinetics after intravenous and oral administration to rat.

1. The toxicokinetics of pentachlorophenol (PCP) were studied in rats. Doses of 2.5 mg/kg were given i.v. (bolus, five rats) and orally (gastric intubation, five rats). Concentrations in plasma, urine and faeces were measured by capillary g.l.c. with electron-capture detection. 2. After i.v. administration, the clearance and volume of distribution at steady state were 0.026 +/- 0.003 l/h per kg and 0.25 +/- 0.02 l/kg, respectively. These two parameters exhibit low inter-rat variability (coefficients of variation less than 15%). The half-life of the initial decline of PCP plasma concn. was less than 1.3 h, while the second phase half-life was 7.11 +/- 0.87 h. 3. After oral administration the peak plasma concn. (7.3 +/- 2.8 micrograms/ml) occurred between 1.5 and 2 h and absorption was complete (bioavailability = 0.91-0.97). No distinct distribution phase was observed and the elimination half-life was 7.54 +/- 0.44 h. 4. PCP clearance is essentially metabolic since only 5.3 +/- 0.2% dose is eliminated unchanged by the kidney. About 60% dose was recovered in urine, mainly as conjugated PCP and conjugated tetrachlorohydroquinone (TCHQ). 5. For both routes of administration, about 10% dose was recovered in faeces as PCP and/or metabolites, which indicates that biliary excretion contributes to total elimination.     

应用Heath-Carter体型法分析辽西地区城市汉族儿童青少年1263名体型特征

目的:分析辽西地区城市汉族儿童青少年的体型发育规律和特点,为体质人类学补充必要的数据。方法:按整群分层抽样法,抽取2001-07/2003-09辽西地区城市7所中小学7～19岁经学校正常体质检查证明身体健康的汉族学生,按性别分两大组,每大组按年龄分12小组,7～18岁每岁为1个年龄组,18～19岁为1个年龄组,每小组45～86名,共分24组,搜集完整资料1263名(男657名,女606名)。采用Heath-Carter体型法,每项指标测量2次,取平均值,10项指标由专人负责,测试数据按年龄和性别在微机中建立数据库,依次计算出各年龄组的内因子、中因子和外因子,体型图上的X,Y坐标值,身高/体质量1/3,样本中平均体型点到所有体型点空间距离的均数,三维空间中两个体型点间的差异,体脂含量和各类体型分布频数。结果:参加调查1263名,均进入结果分析。①7～17岁儿童青少年身高、体质量随年龄的增加而增长。平均身高、体质量男生大于女生。身高/体质量1/3指数除14,16和17岁外,各年龄组女生>男生,平均值女生>男生。体脂含量11岁以前男生>女生,12岁以后女生>男生。②辽西地区城市汉族男生的平均体型值为3.9-3.5-3.4,属中间型,女生平均体型值为4.3-2.9-3.6,属偏外胚层的内胚层体型。体型频数的变化提示辽西城市汉族男生体型分布较散,女生分布较集中,主要在内胚层体型。③内因子男生在3.18～4.81,女生在3.05～5.33,11岁以前男生>女生,12岁以后女生>男生;中因子男生在3.02～4.23,女生在2.54～3.42,除16岁男女相差不多外,其他年龄组男生>女生,外因子男生在2.64～4.22,女生在2.92～4.14,13岁以前女生>男生,14岁以后男生>女生。因此,男生较女生骨骼粗壮,肌肉发达,随着年龄的增长,女生的皮下脂肪更发达,体态丰满,男生的身体相对瘦高程度增长,身材修长。男女各年龄组间体型比较,7～,8～,9～,10～,11～,12～,13～,14～,15～,16～,17～,18～19岁三维空间中两个体型点间的差异值分别为0.95,0.85,1.10,1.06,1.37,0.43,0.87,1.44,1.42,1.12,1.11,1.33,7～,8～,12～,14～,17～,18～19年龄组男女间体型差异有显著性(t=2.07,4.09,3.12,3.86,3.39,3.99,P<0.05)。④与国内汉族及其他少数民族相比,辽西汉族男生体脂最多,骨骼肌肉不发达,身体相对矮小;辽西地区汉族女生体脂较多,骨骼肌肉不发达,体型修长。结论:辽西地区城市男生较女生骨骼粗壮,肌肉发达,随着年龄的增长,女生的皮下脂肪更发达,体态丰满,男生的身体相对瘦高程度增长,身材修长。与国内汉族及其他少数民族相比,辽西地区城市汉族儿童青少年体脂发育较好,骨骼肌肉欠发达,青春期是形成健壮体型的关键时期,辽西地区城市儿童青少年应注意合理饮食和加强体育锻炼。

Bronchoscopy and Tuberculostearic Acid Assay in the Diagnosis of Sputum Smear-negative Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Prospective Study with the Addition of Transbronchial Biopsy

A prospective study of the efficacy of bronchoscopy and tuberculostearicacid assay in the diagnosis of sputum smear-negative pulmonarytuberculosis (TB) was carried out in 39 patients with symptomsand radiographic changes suggestive of active pulmonary TB.The diagnosis of TB was confirmed in 15 patients, probable TBwas diagnosed in eight and 16 patients did not have TB. An earlydiagnosis of TB was made by bronchoscopy in six patients (40per cent). Culture of sputum obtained before bronchoscopy waspositive in nine patients (60 per cent) while combined withbronchoscopy specimens, a positive mycobacterial culture wasobtained in 12 patients (80 per cent). Mycobacteria were culturedfrom transbronchial biopsy specimens from five patients (33per cent) but none of these was exclusively positive. Histologicalexamination of transbronchial biopsy tissue was diagnostic ofTB in four patients and it was the exclusive means of earlydiagnosis in two. Transbronchial biopsy also provided an alternativediagnosis in four other patients. Tuberculostearic acid assayhad a sensitivity of 0.40 in bronchial aspirate, 0.80 in bronchoalveolarlavage fluid, and 0.27 in transbronchial biopsy specimens: thecombined result was 0.87. In nine patients with pulmonary TBin whom an early diagnosis could not be made, the tuberculostearicacid assay was positive in seven (78 per cent). We concludethat bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchialbiopsy is helpful in providing early diagnosis and positiveculture results. Assay of tuberculostearic acid in bronchoalveolarlavage fluid is a useful adjunct to early diagnosis. However,mycobacterial culture and assay of tuberculostearic acid intransbronchial biopsy specimens have little diagnostic value.
