Inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitors fromMelia azedarach var.Japonica

In bioassay-guided search for inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitory compounds from higher plants of South Korea, two beta-carboline alkaloids, 4-methoxy-1-vinyl-beta-carboline (1) and 4,8-dimethoxy-l-vinyl-beta-carboline (2) have been isolated from the cortex of Melia azedarach var. japonica. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Compounds 1 and 2 showed marked inhibitory activity of iNOS on LPS- and interferon-gamma-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells.     

Supported housing for the mentally ill elderly: Implementation and consumer choice

The development of innovative alternatives to nursing homes is critical, especially in the context of OBRA mandates and the growing geriatric population. This article examines the experience of one urban county in Washington State in providing supported housing for the OBRA-affected mentally ill elderly. The significance of this demonstration project is its bold new approach in applying this emerging model to the elderly. It illustrates the perspectives and experience of both consumers and care-givers in implementing the supported housing approach, and the tensions between consumer preferences and staff, organizational and funding constraints.     

Regulation of sulfate uptake in carrot cells: Properties of a hypercontrolled variant

Sulfate uptake in haploid carrot cultures can be experimentally controlled by the sulfur source provided for growth. The rate of sulfate uptake is low in cells grown on cystine or sulfate and high in sulfur-starved cells. A selenate-resistant variant cell line has been isolated from a haploid carrot line. The variant shows hypersuppression of sulfate uptake by cystine and essentially normal control by the other treatments. While both lines efflux intracellular sulfate in the presence of external sulfate, the rate of efflux from the variant is 4-6 times higher at comparable levels of initial intracellular sulfate. Further, properties of the efflux and uptake in both lines suggest that they are mediated by the same system. We propose that the variant possesses an altered uptake-efflux system that is more readily reversed and more subject to control by some metabolite derived from cystine.     

Histoclinical Analysis of Early Colorectal Cancer

To evaluate the clinicopathologic characteristics of early colorectal cancer (ECC), histopathologic and clinical features of 90 ECC patients who underwent surgical resection (not including the endoscopic polypectomized cases) and 1704 patients with advanced colorectal cancer were analyzed. Smaller size, better histologic differentiation, less lymph node (LN) metastasis, and better clinical outcome were observed in those with ECC than in patients with more advanced lesions. LN metastasis was found in 5 patients with ECC among the 56 patients who underwent bowel resection (8.9%). Tumors with LN metastasis were more frequently associated with deep submucosal invasion, absence of an adenomatous component within the tumor, sessile configuration, and lymphovascular invasion. Tumors showing deep submucosal layer invasion were associated with a more unfavorable histologic grade, lymphovascular invasion, LN metastasis, sessile morphology, and absence of an adenomatous component within the tumor. Recurrence was observed in two patients who underwent local excision for their submucosal cancer. One of the patients was salvaged after bowel resection, but one patient died of distant metastasis. From our data analysis and literature review, extensive submucosal invasion, lymphovascular invasion, sessile configuration, and tumors with no adenomatous component should be considered high risk factors for LN metastasis and recurrence after limited therapy.     

腹腔镜与腹腔镜辅助乙状结肠代阴道术治疗MRKH综合征

目的 :总结使用全腹腔镜和腹腔镜辅助下乙状结肠阴道成形术各成功治疗1例Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser综合征 (MRKH综合征 )的经验。方法 :全腹腔镜下使用腔镜闭合切割器切断乙状结肠的近端和远端。自肛门插入腔内圆型吻合器 ,将降结肠与直肠吻合。经会阴于尿道膀胱与直肠之间造穴。将带血管蒂的乙状结肠牵入穴道 ,完成阴道成形。腹腔镜辅助下阴道成形中 ,腔镜闭合切割器切断乙状结肠的远端后 ,于左下腹壁做一辅助切口 ,将近端乙状结肠经此切口拉出至腹腔外。切断乙状结肠近端 ,将乙状结肠的远端开口缝合 2层 ,使之成盲端。近侧端开口置入吻合器之钉钻 ,再行荷包缝合送回腹腔 ,用吻合器行肠吻合。其余步骤同全腹腔镜手术步骤。术后根据临床检查或磁共振成像测量新成形阴道的长度和宽度。结果 :全腹腔镜手术新成形的阴道长 18cm ,宽 4cm。腹腔镜辅助手术新形成的阴道长 19cm ,宽 4cm。两例新形成的阴道黏膜湿润 ,呈粉红色。无术中和术后并发症的发生。结论 :经腹腔镜乙状结肠移植段的长度完全能达到开腹手术的要求。与开放手术比较 ,全腹腔镜乙状结肠代阴道手术在腹壁上不留手术瘢痕 ,美容效果理想。而腹腔镜辅助下阴道成形 ,虽腹壁留有小手术疤痕 ,但操作简便 ,手术时间短 ,手术费用低     

1314例育龄妇女缺铁性贫血发病现状调查

目的 :研究育龄妇女缺铁性贫血 (IDA)的发病现状及营养状况与IDA的关系。方法 :检测青岛市城市及农村 1314例妊娠期和非妊娠期育龄妇女的外周血红蛋白浓度 (Hb)、平均红细胞体积 (MCV)、平均红细胞血红蛋白量 (MCH)、血清铁蛋白 (SF) ,并进行个人问卷调查 ,应用营养计算软件评价膳食营养。结果 :1314例育龄妇女IDA发病率为 2 0 .4 0 % ,其中非孕妇的发病率高于孕妇。农村育龄妇女的发病率明显高于城市。孕妇中孕≥ 2 8周组发病率最高 (4 0 % ) ,与其他孕周组相比差异有高度显著性 (P <0 .0 1)。营养评价结果显示非孕妇组热量、维生素A、E、B1、B2 、PP、C的缺乏率高于孕妇组(P <0 .0 0 1)。结论 :农村育龄妇女及孕 2 8周以上的孕妇为IDA高发人群。应加强对农村育龄妇女的膳食营养宣教及指导 ,对孕晚期的孕妇及时采取有针对性的干预措施。
