Structure-intestinal transport and structure-metabolism correlations of some potential cancerostatic pyrimidine nucleosides in isolated rat jejunum

Summary Both transport and biotransformation processes for a series of pyrimidine nucleobases, ribonucleosides, 2-deoxyribonucleosides, and acetyl and 5-substituted derivatives of the cancerostatic agent araC were studied in the isolated everted rat jejunum with a continuous perfusion technique. Metabolic alterations during penetration were assessed by HPLC. 5-Halogeno and 5-deoxy derivatives of cytosine nucleosides exhibited higher transport rates and higher stability towards the deamination reaction than did unsubstituted derivatives. Octanol-buffer partition coefficients were estimated for the study compounds, and fragmental constants for the sugar moieties of nucleosides were assessed. With the present study compounds there was no correlation between lipophilicity and transport rate, as previously reported, but there was a correlation between lipophilicity and metabolic alteration of araC derivatives (r=0.99, n=5).

中西医结合治疗眼底病的实验和临床研究

眼底病是一种复杂的致盲率很高的眼部疾病 ,包括视网膜脱离、视网膜玻璃体出血和增殖性玻璃体视网膜病变 (PVR)等疾病。本文采用中西医结合的治疗方法对动物模型和 1998～ 2 0 0 0年此类眼病患者进行研究 ,疗效显著 ,使眼底病的治愈率有了很大幅度的提高。中医药对眼底病的治疗常用活血化瘀复方治疗 ,对于从动物实验及临床两方面同时进行中西医结合的系统治疗研究 ,尚未见有报道。     

饮食服务业从业人员乙型肝炎病毒感染动态研究

目的为了解泰安市饮食服务业从业人员乙型肝炎病毒感染状况。方法应用ELISA方法在1995～1999年对53434名饮食服务业从业人员进行了血清HBsAg、抗-HBc、HBeAg和抗-HBe检测。结果1995～1999年饮食服务业从业人员血清HBsAg、抗-HBc、HBeAg和抗-HBe总阳性率呈逐年下降趋势,依次为4.41%、3.88%、3.46%、2.86%和2.50%,其差异有显著意义（χ     

低铅染毒大鼠体内脂质过氧化及抗氧化水平改变

目的：观察低剂量铅染毒后大鼠体内脂质过氧化水平改变,为铅的毒作用机制研究提供依据。方法：以醋酸铅为受试物,雄性Wistar大鼠为受试对象,分别观察其脏器脂质过氧化水平改变。结果：低铅染毒后,大鼠各脏器超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、谷胱苷肽过氧化物酶（GSH－Px）及过氧化脂质（LPO）均有不同程度改变（P＜0.05,P＜0.01）,而巯基（－SH）含量仅肝脏变化较明显。结论：较低剂量的铅即可引起体内脂质过氧化水平的改变,而这种变化可能是铅的毒作用途径之一。

A comprehensive reconstruction strategy for moderate to severe faciocervical scar contractures

The focus of treatment of faciocervical scar contractures includes cervical reconstruction and elimination of hypertrophic scars. Unfortunately, most previous studies have neglected the esthetic appearance of scars. In this study, we tried to combine surgical therapy and ultrapulse fractional CO₂ laser (UFCL) to eliminate facial scars while restoring neck reconstruction and to establish the optimal conventional management for faciocervical contracture. Thirty-eight individuals were enrolled and divided into two groups. After received cervical release surgeries, comprehensive UFCL therapy group received treatment of UFCL at 3-month intervals, silicone sheets, and pressure garments, while another group only received treatment of silicone sheeting and compression. Twelve months after the termination of therapy, faciocervical scars of both two groups were assessed by two uninvolved physicians according to the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS), and patients’ satisfaction survey was also recorded by the study participants using a patient four-point satisfaction scale. Thirty-six patients completed the treatment and follow-up. The results show that the VSS scores of both two groups decreased after 12 months, but comprehensive UFCL therapy group dropped more significantly than the conventional treatment group at follow-up session, which was statistically significant (P?<?0.001), and the patient satisfaction was higher than that of the conventional treatment group. This comprehensive treatment combined of surgery, UFCL, silicone sheets, and pressure garments works as an effective and esthetic reconstruction for moderate to severe postburn faciocervical scar contractures.
