What is in a cause? Exploring the relationship between genetic cause and felt stigma

PURPOSE: Concern over stigma as a consequence of genetic testing has grown in response to the recent increase in genetic research and testing resulting from the Human Genome Project. However, whether a genetic or hereditary basis necessarily confers a stigma to a condition remains unexamined. METHODS: We performed a qualitative interview study with 86 individuals with one of four conditions: deafness or hearing loss, breast cancer, sickle cell disease, and cystic fibrosis. The first two groups were divided approximately between people who ascribed their conditions to a genetic or hereditary cause and those who did not. RESULTS: Respondents interpreted genetic or hereditary causes and nongenetic causes in a variety of ways. Subjects with breast cancer reported the most consistently negative interpretation of genetic cause. This response concerned future ill health, not an enduring sense of stigma. Deaf and hard of hearing subjects provided the most consistently positive comments about a genetic or hereditary basis to their condition, casting familial hearing loss as a vital component of group and individual identity. Respondents with sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis offered similar and positive interpretations of the genetic cause of their condition insofar as it meant their conditions were not contagious. CONCLUSIONS: Although some subjects report feeling stigmatized as a result of their condition, this stigmatization is not uniformly associated with the condition's cause, genetic or otherwise. Instead, stigma emerges from a variety of sources in the context of the lived experience of a particular condition.     

多普勒组织成像技术在评价高血压左室舒张功能中的应用

目的 :应用多普勒组织成像 (DTI)技术检测二尖瓣环舒张期运动速度来评介原发性高血压左室舒张功能 ,探讨DTI的临床应用价值。方法 :2 0例原发性高血压和 2 0例年龄相似的健康者 ,应用DTI技术对二尖瓣环室间隔侧的运动速度进行测定 ,并与常规二尖瓣血流脉冲多普勒 (PW)检测结果对照分析。结果 :PW高血压组与对照组比较 ,峰值速度E、A及E/A明显低于对照组 ,差异显著 (P <0 0 1) ;DTI高血压组与对照组比较 ,峰值速度Ea、Aa及Ea/Aa明显低于对照组 ,差异非常显著 (P <0 0 0 1)。PW、DTI两组相同部位间比较 ,高血压组低于对照组。结论 :DTI技术评价高血压左室舒张功能比常规脉冲多普勒二尖瓣血流参数更敏感     

螺旋CT双期增强扫描与病灶延迟期扫描在肝癌诊断中的应用

目的：研究螺旋CT动脉期、门脉期及病灶延迟期扫描在肝癌诊断中的应用，以进一步选择理想的扫描时期和方案。方法：对48例肝细胞性肝癌患者行平扫及增强扫描，造影剂注射速率为3ml/s，然后开始动脉期、门脉期及病灶延迟期扫描。统计各期的病灶检出数，观察病灶在不同时期的特征。结果：动脉期、门脉期及病灶延迟期的病灶检出率分别为91.9％、76.9％、78.8％，动脉期和门脉期、病灶延迟期之间均有显著差异，而门脉期和病灶延迟期之间无差异。结论：在肝癌的检出方面动脉期价值最大，而门脉期和延迟期之间无差异。双期扫描（动脉期加门脉期）可作为肝癌CT诊断的常规技术，对不典型病例，病灶延迟期很有必要，有助于病灶的定性。

Re-evaluation of normal human urinary proteins fractionated by one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis

Proteins in normal human urine were clearly fractionated into 26 bands with molecular weights from 14,000 to 230,000 by means of one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) coupled with silver staining. The main band contained uromucoid, and the second main band had albumin. However, when urine samples from healthy persons were electrophoresed in the absence of SDS using polyacrylamide gel or agarose gel, or a cellulose acetate membrane, albumin but not uromucoid, frequently formed the main protein band. It is suggested that this is due to the complexing of uromucoid subunits to form a large molecule which cannot penetrate into the gel. In order to correctly fractionate all the proteins contained in normal human urine, it was concluded that it was best to treat a urine sample with SDS with pre-condensation, fractionate it by SDS-PAGE and stain fractionated proteins by a highly sensitive method such as silver staining.     

Acute effects of serotonin on rat bladder contractility.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study is to investigate in vitro the effects of serotonin on the rat detrusor. In particular, it examines which drugs inhibit the serotonin-induced detrusor contractions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Isometric tension changes of isolated rat bladder muscle strips were recorded in an organ bath using a force transducer. Acute effects of serotonin (0.0001-0.01 mM) on resting tension were assessed. Electrical field stimulation (EFS); bethanechol (0.0001-0.01 mM); ATP (1-3 mM)- or KCl (63.5-254 mM)-induced contractions using an application in an organ bath were compared with serotonin-induced contractions. In order to examine the action mechanism of serotonin-induced stimulation, EFS-, bethanechol-, ATP- or KCl-induced contraction on serotonin treatment (0.001 mM) was assessed and serotonin (0.001-0.1 mM) was cumulatively added to the organ bath following preincubation with propranolol, ketanserin, tropisetron, propiverine, sodium nitroprusside or doxazosin. RESULTS: The serotonin-induced response has two phases: an initial transient contraction and a prolonged tonic phase. Serotonin produced a reversible and dose-dependent contraction of the detrusor strips. Responses to bethanechol significantly increased with a concentration of 0.001 mM serotonin (p < 0.05). There was no effect on the responses to ATP, KCl, or EFS on 0.001 mM serotonin. The 5-HT(2) receptor is mainly responsible for serotonin-induced contractions of the detrusor (p < 0.05), while the 5-HT(1) receptor is partially responsible. Doxazosin and propiverine each significantly suppressed the response to serotonin, while sodium nitroprusside and tropisetron each had no effect (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Because the 5-HT(2) antagonist blocked the effect of serotonin-induced bladder contractions and the stimulation of the adrenoreceptors, the 5-HT(2) antagonist seems to improve lower urinary tract symptoms.
