Relationship of adrenocortical function and TCM Syndrome typing in elderly patients with severe sepsis

Objective: To explore the relationship between TCM Syndrome typing and adrenocortical function in elderly patients with severe sepsis, and to see whether TCM Syndrome Differentiation can provide clinical clues in identifying relative adrenal insufficiency (RAI) in patients with severe sepsis. Methods: Six ty-one old patients with severe sepsis were classified into four types according to TCM Syndrome Differentiation: The severe invasion of toxic-heat type (Type SITH, n = 21 ); the Qi stagnation and blood stasis type ( Type QSBS, n = 11); the sudden depletion of Yang-Qi type ( Type SDYQ, n = 16); and the exhaustion of Qi-Yin type (Type EOQY, n = 13). The base-line level of plasma cortisol in patients of different types and their response to corticotropin stimulation were compared, which were also compared with those of 12 healthy elderly persons synchronously. Results: The base-line level of plasma cortisol was not significantly different between patients of different Syndrome types (P＞0.05), but they were all sgnificantly higher than that in the healthy persons ( P＜0.05). Compared with Type QSBS and Type EOQY, Type SITH and Type SDYQ showed less cortisol concentration increment after corticotropin stimulation ( P＜0.05). RAI was more prevalent in patients of Type SITH and Type SDYQ than in patients of Type QSBS and Type EOQY (57% vs 25 %, P＜0.01). Conclusion: In old patients with severe sepsis, different TCM Syndrome types are associated with different adrenocortical function status. TCM Syndrome differentiation can provide clinical clues in identifying old patients with severe sepsis who have also RAI.

8例胰腺类癌的临床病理分析

Carcinoids of the pancreas are exceedingly rare tumors that originate from the enterochromaffin cells of the gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine system. According to a recent report, pancreatic carcinoids are found in only 0.58% （79/13 715 cases） of the entire carcinoid group. To date, very limited information regarding the detection and diagnosis of this entity has been reported in the available literature. Although pancreatic carcinoid tumors grow slowly and show an indolent clinical behavior, they are potentially malignant. Due to the late onset of clinical symptoms and delayed diagnosis of the tumor, there was a high incidence of distant metastases that hampered long-term survival for many patients, leading to an unfavorable overall prognosis.

目的 探讨脊髓损伤后反应性星形胶质细胞的增生和巢蛋白的表达情况,并观察其细胞类型及相关性.方法 利用动脉瘤夹压迫法建立成年大鼠脊髓损伤动物模型.利用BBB评分标准表、免疫组化、免疫荧光双标法与LeicaQ500IW图像处理系统分析和显示脊髓损伤后不同时期(1、3、5 d,1、2、4、6、8、w)、不同部位脊髓损伤的程度以及巢蛋白与胶质酸性纤维蛋白(GFAP)的表达变化及细胞类型.结果 BBB评分结果显示术后所有实验动物双后肢(HL)评分低至0~1min,随后逐渐上升,1～2周内恢复的幅度较大,以后恢复较缓慢,较正常对照组具统计学意义(P<0.05).甲苯胺蓝染色可见损伤区有核固缩、胞浆溶解、尼氏体模糊且染色较深的神经元.随着动物存活时间延长,损伤范围逐渐扩大,约1周后损伤范同不再扩大.正常对照组脊髓神经元胞体和突起轮廓清晰.免疫荧光双标染色及图像处理系统分析结果显示脊髓伤24h后可诱导损伤及邻近区域巢蛋白和GFAP高度表达,中央管周围室管膜区几乎均为巢蛋白/GFAP-细胞群.室管膜区以外的灰质和白质中几乎全是巢蛋白/GFAP 细胞群,3～7d逐渐达到高峰,之后逐渐减弱,在损伤后2周左右恢复至对照组水平(P<0.05).正常对照组在脊髓中央管室管膜区有少量巢蛋白/GFAP-细胞,在室管膜区以外的灰质和白质中偶可见染色强度较弱的巢蛋白/GFAP 共存细胞.结论 成年大鼠脊髓损伤可诱导巢蛋白和GFAP的表达.巢蛋白的表达和反应性星形胶质细胞增生呈正相关,且表达多相互共存;星形胶质细胞和神经干细胞对脊髓损伤都有反应,并可能参与中枢神经系统损伤修复.

目的：分析在肝细胞性肝癌中NRG1基因的两个多态性位点D8S278和D8S499杂合性丢失（loss ofheterozygosity,LOH）情况及其与NRG1蛋白表达水平之间的关系,探讨NRG1在肝细胞肝癌发生发展中的作用。方法：酚氯仿抽提经石蜡包埋的肝癌和癌旁正常组织DNA,进行PCR扩增,扩增出来的产物进行变性聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳并分析两位点杂合性丢失情况;用免疫组织化学方法检测肝癌组织和癌旁正常组织中NRG1的表达情况。结果：D8S278和D8S499的LOH率分别为32.43%（24/74）、37.86%（26/69）,总频率为48.65%（36/74）;NRG1在肝癌组织中的阳性表达率为67.57%（50/74）,显著低于在正常组织中的表达水平（97.30%,72/74）（P〈0.05）,这种降低与NRG1基因多态性位点的LOH有关;NRG1表达下调与肿瘤大小、Edmondson分级相关,而与年龄、性别、HBsAg、AFP、肝硬化和肝内外转移无明显相关。结论：NRG1基因可能是肝细胞肝癌的一个候选抑癌基因,在肝癌发生发展中起一定的作用;可为临床诊断、治疗及预后评估提供理论依据。     

One‐Year Clinical Outcome of a Randomized Trial of Polymer‐Free Paclitaxel‐Eluting Stents Versus Biodegradable Polymer‐Based Rapamycin‐Eluting Stents in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease

Background: More widespread use of drug‐eluting stents (DES) to treat coronary heart disease (CHD) has recently generated more attention to thrombosis, which was relative to the polymer. Polymer‐free and biodegradable polymer‐based stents are more frequently studied, but their efficacy on preventing detrimental clinical events is unclear. Methods and Results: To assess whether polymer‐free paclitaxel‐eluting stent (YINYI stent) was noninferior or equivalent to biodegradable polymer‐based rapamycin‐eluting stents (EXCEL stent) in preventing detrimental clinical cardiovascular events, a total of 167 consecutive CHD patients requiring DES implantation were randomly divided into the YINYI group (n = 82) and the EXCEL group (n = 85). The primary end‐point was major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The secondary end‐points included stent thrombosis events, all‐cause mortality, and rehospitalization. The study was designed to test the noninferiority or equivalence of the YINYI stent compared with the EXCEL stent with respect to one‐year MACE according to a noninferiority or equivalence margin of 0.1. One‐year MACE was 6.10% in the YINYI group versus 5.88% in the EXCEL group. The lower limit of the one‐sided 95% confidence interval was ?0.0582 (P = 0.002 from the test for noninferiority). The 95% confidence interval for the equivalence test was [?0.0698, 0.0742] (P₁=0.004 and P₂=0.007 from 2 times the 1‐sided test for equivalence). There was no statistically significant difference in thrombosis events, all‐cause death, and rehospitalization (all P > 0.05). Conclusions: In this small randomized trial, polymer‐free paclitaxel‐eluting stents appear to be noninferior or equivalent to biodegradable polymer‐based rapamycin‐eluting stents.
