Late atrioventricular block after heart transplantation.

Bradyarrhythmia requiring permanent pacing after heart transplantation remains a common problem. Sinus node dysfunction is the most common indication, and late onset of atrioventricular (AV) block has rarely been reported. We report the case of a patient who developed advanced AV block at 41 months after transplantation. Right bundle branch block with progressive increase of QRS complex duration was noted in serial electrocardiograms. At the time of late AV block development, the patient did not have acute rejection and coronary angiogram was normal. The mechanism of late onset of AV block is unclear, but it may be caused by progressive conduction.

胰岛素瘤的超声诊断:与其他诊断方法比较

目的:探讨超声等方法对胰岛素瘤的定位诊断价值。材料和方法:对42例经过手术和病理证实的胰岛素瘤患者术前定位诊断的各种方法进行回顾性分析,并与其他诊断方法对比分析其各自的定位符合率。结果:定位诊断符合率分别为B超31%(13/42)、EUS55.6%(5/9)、IOUS100%(10/10)、超声引导下PTPC100%(3/3)、CT59.5%(25/42)、MRI50%(6/12)、选择性DSA27.3%(3/11)及ASVS90%(9/10)。彩超(CDUS)对胰岛素瘤良、恶性有鉴别作用。结论:遵循循序渐进原则,先后选用B超(含CDUS)、EUS、CT等已可解决80%以上的定位诊断,然后再做MRI及ASVS;对仍未作出定位者,只要定性诊断明确即有手术探查指征,因为IOUS能提供可靠的定位信息。     

Enantioselective metabolism and cytotoxicity of R-ifosfamide and S-ifosfamide by tumor cell-expressed cytochromes P450.

The anticancer prodrug ifosfamide (IFA) contains a chiral phosphorous atom and is administered in the clinic as a racemic mixture of R-IFA and S-IFA. Hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes exhibit enantioselective preferences in the metabolism of R-IFA and S-IFA; however, the impact of this selectivity on P450-dependent anticancer activity is not known. Presently, the metabolism and cytotoxicity of R-IFA and S-IFA were determined in 9L gliosarcoma and Chinese hamster ovary tumor cells expressing an IFA-activating P450 enzyme and by in vitro steady-state kinetic analysis using cDNA-expressed P450 enzymes. Tumor cells expressing P450 enzyme CYP3A4 were the most sensitive to R-IFA cytotoxicity, whereas tumor cells expressing CYP2B1 or CYP2B6 were most sensitive to cyclophosphamide (CPA), an isomer of IFA. Correspondingly, CYP3A4-expressing cells and cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 metabolized R-IFA to yield the active, 4-hydroxylated metabolite at a 2- to 3-fold higher rate than they metabolized S-IFA or CPA. CYP2B cells and cDNA-expressed CYP2B enzymes metabolized CPA almost exclusively by 4-hydroxylation, whereas R-IFA and S-IFA were substantially converted to inactive, N-dechloroethylated metabolites. Further investigation revealed that CYP3A1, a rat enzyme, exhibited superior kinetic properties compared with the human enzyme CYP3A4, with R-IFA and S-IFA both metabolized with high catalytic efficiency by 4-hydroxylation and with a K(m) value of 200 microM, approximately 5-fold lower than CYP3A4. Based on these kinetic parameters and metabolic profiles, R-IFA is expected to exert greater anticancer activity than S-IFA or CPA against tumors that express CYP3A enzymes, whereas tumors expressing CYP2B enzymes may be more sensitive to CPA treatment.     

对诊断PADAM的游离睾酮指数的评估

目的 评价诊断中老年男子部分雄激素缺乏综合征（PADAM）的游离睾酮指数（FTI）.方法 对129例45岁以上健康男性的FTI进行年龄相关分析.以推算的游离睾酮（CFT）值为依据,对FTI进行有效性检验.结果 男子在中老年期FTI与增龄呈明显的负相关.FTI敏感性97.78%,特异性58.33%.结论 计算简单的FTI可用于PADAM病人的筛选和随访,尤其对70岁以上男子是血清FT较为有效的参数.
