大白鼠肾上腺的血管构筑

本实验采用血管铸型扫描电镜,注射明胶卡红组织切片显微镜下观察和注射铅丹乳胶追踪血管来源三种方法对14只健康大白鼠肾上腺血管构筑进行了研究。大白鼠肾上腺动脉发自腹主动脉和肾动脉。它们在行程中发出分支至腺体表面,再次分支穿入囊内,逐级分支至毛细血管。皮质动脉发自囊内血管,它们在皮质中分支分布。球状带的毛细血管与囊的毛细血管相连,毛细血管在球状带围绕细胞团形成网眼状;在束状带呈放射状排列;在网状带吻合增多形成网状。髓质动脉亦发自囊的血管,它们在皮质中不发分支直抵髓质,在髓质分成毛细血管。网状带的毛细血管越向髓质口径越粗,它们在皮髓交界处互相吻合形成更粗的静脉,这些静脉逐级吻合,最后形成一主干——中央静脉,它穿出皮质出现于肾上腺门处。左侧的中央静脉注入在肾静脉,右侧的注入下腔静脉。     

Neuroradiological features of intracranial and intraorbital meningeal haemangiopericytomas

The neuroradiological features of six intracranial and one intraorbital haemangiopericytomas (HP) are reviewed. CT was performed before and after IV contrast medium in 5 patients. In 2 patients MRI was performed before and after contrast medium; in another, only unenhanced images were obtained. Five patients were studied by selective external and internal carotid artery angiography. Women constituted 5 of the 7 patients, and the mean age was 50.5 years, thus the sex and age distribution did not differ from that of typical meningiomas. Contrary to previous reports, calcification was present in two of the intracranial HP, and bone erosion was clearly seen in one intracranial HP and the orbital lesion. On MRI the tumours showed no differences from angioblastic meningiomas. All 6 intracranial HP were aggressive; all recurred following treatment and extracerebral metastasis occurred in one case.

Pseudodissection of the coronary artery: A variation caused by interventional tools

During PTCA immediate decisions often must be made on the basis of a less than optimum data set. We present a combination of factors which produce an incorrect perception of a coronary artery dissection. This potential must be understood by the interventionalist to avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate therapeutic maneuvers. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

二维多普勒超声对室性早搏的血流频谱分析

观察室性早搏４３例，多普勒频谱表现为峰值流速减慢，早搏使前一组Ａ峰消失，后一组峰值流速增快。１９例早发型，主动脉瓣口、肺动脉瓣口无频谱出现，早搏每搏量因发生时间不同，每搏量减少不同，晚发型平均减少３７．６％，早发型平均减少７９．６％。讨论了产生机理及对心排量的影响。     

Resistance exercise training and alendronate reverse glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in heart transplant recipients.

BACKGROUND: Immunosuppression therapy with bolus glucocorticoids causes regional osteoporosis in the axial skeleton of heart transplant recipients (HTR). No preventive strategy is generally accepted for steroid-induced bone loss. METHODS: To determine the efficacy of an anti-osteoporosis regimen that combined a bisphosphonate agent (alendronate sodium) with the osteogenic stimulus of mechanical loading, 25 HTRs were randomly assigned either to a group that received alendronate (10 mg/day) for 6 months (ALEN; n = 8), a group that received alendronate (10 mg/day) and performed specific resistance exercises for 6 months (ALEN + TRN; n = 8) or to a non-intervention control group (CONTR; n = 9). Alendronate was initiated at 2 months after transplantation. Bone mineral density (BMD) of the total body, femur neck and lumbar spine (L-2 and L-3) was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry before and 2, 5 and 8 months after transplantation. Resistance training consisted of lumbar extension exercise (MedX) performed 1 day/week and 8 variable resistance exercises (MedX) performed 2 days/week. RESULTS: Pre-transplantation BMD values did not differ among the 3 groups. BMD of the total body, femur neck and lumbar vertebra were significantly decreased below baseline at 2 months after transplantation in CONTR (-2.6 +/- 0.9%, -5.1 +/- 1.8%, -12.5 +/- 4.2%, respectively), ALEN (-2.8 +/- 0.8%, -5.3 +/- 1.6%, -12.0 +/- 3.9%) and ALEN + TRN groups (-2.7 +/- 1.0%, -5.6 +/- 2.1%, -11.2 +/- 3.7%). CONTR had further significant losses of BMD after 3 and 6 months. ALEN had no further regional BMD losses after initiation of alendronate therapy. ALEN + TRN restored BMD of the whole body, femur neck and lumbar vertebra to within 0.9%, 2.1%, and 3.4% of pre-transplantation levels, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Resistance exercise plus alendronate was more efficacious than alendronate alone in restoring BMD in HTRs. Our results indicate that anti-osteoporosis therapy in this population should include both an anti-resorptive agent as well as an osteogenic stimulus, such as mechanical loading.     

前锯肌下部肌皮瓣移植的应用解剖

Chronic Paroxysmal Hemicrania: Dissociation of the Pain and Autonomic Features

The case of a woman suffering from chronic paroxysmal hemicrania is presented. Most attacks were unilateral and recurred on the same side. On a few occasions, attacks were observed on the contralateral side. In addition, the patient reported some incomplete attacks on the usually symptomatic side with autonomic phenomena, but without pain. That "partial" attacks would exist has been suspected on theoretical ground. This is, however, the first time such attacks have been reported by a patient. Therefore, a double dissociation of the symptomatology seemed to exist: (1) a side shift of attacks, and (2) incomplete("partial") attacks. These unexpected findings occurred after two indomethacin treatment withdrawals. A possible central and "midline" origin of attacks or an indomethacin after-effect or both are discussed as a likely explanation for such a dissociation of symptoms and signs.
