谈耳鼻喉科教学中多媒体技术的应用

多媒体教学技术应用于耳鼻喉科教学,具有直观性好、动态感强、信息量大等优点,能使教学信息直接、形象、具体、生动地展现给学生,让学生体会到学习的乐趣,是耳鼻喉科现代化教学的理想模式.     

The effect of bismuth subnitrate on cisplatin toxicity

Bismuth subnitrate (BSN), a bismuth compound medically used for antidiarrheics, was orally administered to see whether it can reduce CDDP nephrotoxicity or not. Thirteen patients aged 19 approximately 60 with ovarian cancer entered this BSN-CDDP trial. A total of thirty three courses of BSN-CDDP treatment was undergone. BSN was administered orally at a dose of 50 mg/kg for five days before CDDP therapy. CDDP was infused for two hours. No vigorous hydration or diuresis was performed. Only 2,000 ml of saline with 20 mEq per liter of KCl was given for post-hydration. The median dose of CDDP was 100 mg/m2. The renal toxicity of BSN-CDDP treatment was minimum. 82% of the courses at the sixth day after the treatment had creatinine clearance levels which were more than 80% of those before the treatment. But twenty-four hour NAG and beta 2-microglobulin excretion were significantly increased. Bone marrow suppression and gastrointestinal disturbance were commonly observed. The results of our study indicate that BSN pretreatment reduces the renal toxicity of CDDP to some extent.     

Variations in serum thyroxine concentrations with time after an oral replacement dose

Serum thyroxine concentrations were measured sequentially in eight healthy male volunteers after the oral administration of one of two brand name, commercially available thyroxine tablets. In all cases, levels peaked at 2 hours and did not return to baseline values until 24 hours after dosing. From 2 through 10 hours, statistically significant elevations in serum thyroxine concentrations were observed. Such fluctuations may be important in evaluating laboratory results in patients receiving replacement doses of thyroxine.     

Promoting effect of the Chinese medicinal herb, wikstroemia chamaedaphne and tung oil extracts on carcinoma of the uterine cervix induced by HSV-2 or methylcholanthrene (MCA) in mice

The promoting effect of the Chinese medicinal herb, Wikstroemia chamaedaphne and Tung oil extracts (WC and HHPA) on carcinoma of uterine cervix induced by HSV-2 or MCA in mice was studied. The results showed that WC and HHPA extracts were not carcinogenic themselves. After carcinogen HSV-2 and MCA treatment, WC and HHPA were added separately. The inducing rates by HSV-2 increased from 7.4% to 21.1% and 26.3%, those by MCA increased from 56.5% to 82.8% and 84.4%. There was a significant difference between the combined groups and groups with HSV-2 or MCA only. The experimental results suggest that these two kinds of extracts play a promoting effect on carcinogenesis. The relation between the carcinogenesis of uterine cervix or nasopharynx and WC or HHPA extracts is discussed.     

Sleep apnea--an overview

Though distressing and potentially dangerous, sleep apnea may be an under-recognized disease in many countries. The obstructive type, which usually presents with loud snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness, is by far the commonest form. It causes a great deal of medical, social and psychological morbidity as well as an increased mortality. Doctors of different specialties have an important role in detecting and referring suspected patients for early assessment and treatment. Multidisciplinary management in a general hospital and accurate assessment with polysomnography are essential as modern and sometimes effective methods of treatment are becoming available.     

冷敷在重睑成形术中的应用效果观察

重睑成形术是眼睑美容手术之一。随着人民生活水平的提高,要求美容的人也越来越多[1]。由于该手术大部分需要切开剥离,去除眼轮匝肌或去脂去皮,容易引起皮下组织水肿、淤血,影响恢复和术后效果。2005年11月—2006年11月,笔者对124例重睑受术者进行术中冰生理盐水冷敷,在减轻水肿、淤血程度、缩短恢复期方面疗效显著。现报道如下。1资料与方法1.1临床资料本组共124例,其中女118例,男6例,年龄20岁～58岁。将受术者按手术时间先后顺序随机分为实验组和对照组各62例。1.2方法两组均使用电凝止血,5-0丝线缝合后用无菌纱布包扎伤口,口服5d抗生素。…
