神经修复导管的材料学及制备方法

目的:综合分析近年来国内外神经修复用导管材料以及制备方法的研究近况。资料来源:应用计算机检索ElsevierScience1996-01/2005-12有关神经修复及神经导管方面的文献,检索词分别为“nerveconduit,nerveguide,nerveregeneration”,限定文献语言种类为English。同时计算机检索清华数字期刊库、万方数据库1996-01/2005-12有关神经修复及神经导管方面的文献,检索词为“神经修复,导管”,限定语言种类为中文。资料选择:对检索到的神经再生、神经修复及神经导管方面的相关信息进行整理,选取针对性强的文章。同一领域的文献则选择近期发表或权威杂志的文章。资料提炼:共收集120篇关于神经修复、神经导管的文献,纳入23篇符合标准的文献。资料综合:用神经导管桥接断离神经是神经修复的重要方法之一,制备神经导管的材料按其降解性能分为生物不可降解材料和生物可降解材料,任何一种材料都有其优缺点,发展复合材料将是制备导管的主要方向。结论:虽然影响神经再生的因素还有许多,如神经生长因子、雪旺细胞等,但是新型的导管及制备方法将会有利于神经修复进一步发展。     

Revascularized fibula for tibia replacement in adamantinoma

Adamantinoma of long bones is one of the rarest of malignant bone tumors; it is commonly located in the middle or lower third of the diaphysis of the tibia. A case with multiple occurrences affecting both the tibia and fibula is presented. En bloc resection with wide operative margins was performed, and a large tibial defect of 23 cm was effectively bridged by a revascularized free fibular flap. At 13 months follow-up, there was no sign of local recurrence or metastasis, and the patient was mobile.

自体输血在出血性手术中的应用

外科手术,特别是出血量较大的急诊手术、术中出血较多的心内直视手术、以及颅脑外科手术等用血量大,一直是医疗中棘手的问题,而随着人们对输血所带来并发症的重视,以及近年来血源不足及合理输血、血液保护等,使得自体输血成为主流。本文就自体输血在临床应用,特别是大出血性手术中的应用价值作一综述。     

Cortical plasticity: effect of high and low intensity conditioning electrical stimulations (100 Hz) on SEPs to painful finger stimulation.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of high-frequency (100 Hz) repetitive conditioning electrical stimulation (CES, 10 min) on human somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) to evaluate if short-term cortical plasticity could be induced. METHODS: Painful electrical stimulations were applied to thumb (D1) and little finger (D5) fingertips, respectively. The 124-channel EEG was recorded from 10 healthy male volunteers. Peak stages around 34, 45, 212, 331 ms were analyzed with focal maximum amplitude (FA) and area magnitude (AM) of scalp field potential, topography, and equivalent current dipole source localisation, comparing before and after two-level CES (high- vs. low-level) applied to the He-Gu acupoint. RESULTS: After a high-level CES, the positive FA and AM of the current efflux showed a significant increase at the early phase 34 ms, and significantly decreased at 45 ms in D1 SEPs. The negative FA and AM of the current influx were significantly increased at late phase 350 ms of the D5 SEPs. Only 36 ms, the z-axis position of dipole was significantly changed from (x: -15.9 mm, y: 29.6 mm, z: 43.9 mm) to (x: -12.9 mm, y: 29.4mm, z: 51.5mm) for the D5 SEPs. CONCLUSIONS: The high-level CES significantly attenuated the subsequent cortical activation (45 ms peak for D1 stimulation). Both low- and high-level CES significantly enhanced the late activities (226, 350 ms) in D5 stimulation. This may be explained by pain sensation change at the level of subcortical cingulate cortex induced by the site-dependent post-effect of CES. SIGNIFICANCE: This study showed cortical plasticity induced by conditioning somatosensory stimulation.     

经皮激光椎间盘减压术治疗椎间盘源性腰痛

Efficacy and safety of herbal medicines for idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a systematic review.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of herbal medicines (HMs), as a monotherapy or adjunct therapy, compared to placebo or conventional approaches in the treatment of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). We conducted a systematic review of randomized controlled trials from both conventional and alternative medicine sources. Outcome measures were overall improvement, quality of life, reduction of levodopa dose, and adverse events. Nine studies were included, each testing a different HM. Six of the trials had limited internal validity due to major flaws in design, including the lack of proper randomization; insufficient blinding; unclear inclusive criteria in terms of diagnostic criteria, baseline staging, and duration of disease; lack of proper sample size calculation; and insufficient data analysis. Imbalances in gender and ethnicity among the patients in the included trials were observed. No major adverse events emerged, and no specific pattern was detected from the trials describing such data. In addition to major methodological defects, heterogeneity in (1) HM tested, (2) control treatment, and (3) outcome measure hindered in-depth data analysis and synthesis. Current evidence is insufficient to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various HMs. Further studies with improved trial design and reporting, with assessment on cost-effectiveness, quality of life, and qualitative data are warranted.
