In vivo 13C saturation transfer effect of the lactate dehydrogenase reaction.

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, EC 1.1.1.27) catalyzes an exchange reaction between pyruvate and lactate. It is demonstrated here that this reaction is sufficiently fast to cause a significant magnetization (saturation) transfer effect when the 13C resonance of pyruvate is saturated by a continuous-wave (CW) RF pulse. Infusion of [2-(13)C]glucose was used to allow labeling of pyruvate C2 at 207.9 ppm to determine the pseudo first-order rate constant of the unidirectional lactate-->pyruvate flux in vivo. During systemic administration of GABAA receptor antagonist bicuculline, this pseudo first-order rate constant was determined to be 0.08+/-0.01 s-1 (mean+/-SD, N=4) in halothane-anesthetized adult rat brains. In 9L and C6 rat glioma models, the 13C saturation transfer effect of the LDH reaction was also detected in vivo. Our results demonstrate that the 13C magnetization transfer effect of the LDH reaction may be useful as a novel marker for utilizing noninvasive in vivo MRS to study many physiological and pathological conditions, such as cancer.

Mechanisms of opioid-induced tolerance and hyperalgesia.

Opioid tolerance and opioid-induced hyperalgesia are conditions that negatively affect pain management. Tolerance is defined as a state of adaptation in which exposure to a drug induces changes that result in a decrease of the drug's effects over time. Opioid-induced hyperalgesia occurs when prolonged administration of opioids results in a paradoxic increase in atypical pain that appears to be unrelated to the original nociceptive stimulus. Complex intracellular neural mechanisms, including opioid receptor desensitization and down-regulation, are believed to be major mechanisms underlying opioid tolerance. Pain facilitatory mechanisms in the central nervous system are known to contribute to opioid-induced hyperalgesia. Recent research indicates that there may be overlap in the two conditions. This article reviews known and hypothesized pathophysiologic mechanisms surrounding these phenomena and the clinical implications for pain management nurses.     

应激反应介质在糖尿病心血管并发症中的作用

近30年来糖尿病患病率在多数欧美和亚洲国家中迅速增高。糖尿病心血管并发症是糖尿病患者的主要死亡原因,其发生机制不甚明了。糖尿病有关的代谢因素增加循环和组织中氧化和糖化蛋白或脂蛋白的水平和氧化应激性。这些改变可引起动脉粥样硬化,凝血因子和血小板活性增高,纤溶活性     

肠道T细胞淋巴瘤临床分析

本文总结报告了3例肠道T细胞淋巴瘤(intestinal T-cell lymphoma，ITCL)的诊治资料，并结合文献复习，发现IT—CL多见于中年男性，以腹痛、血便、发热、体质量下降为主要症状，治疗效果差，预后不良。病理改变以肠道溃疡形成为特点，溃疡形态呈多形性、多灶性、不规则，镜下瘤细胞明显异型、弥漫性浸润，中至大细胞多见。肿瘤细胞呈T细胞表型。ITCL临床少见，缺乏特异性临床表现，极易误诊。故临床医师应重视对ITCL临床病理特征、免疫表型和基因型的研究，注意识别，促其早期诊治。     

浅谈健康教育中的护理风险管理

健康教育作为临床护理中的重要内容，对病人的疾病转归有重要作用。而任何医疗护理行为都是具有超过各种服务之上的高科技行为的组合活动，具有高风险性，健康教育同样存在一定的风险性。所以，我们应提高风险意识，加强风险管理，将风险降低至最低限度。     

根据桂枝汤的效应消除半衰期和表观消除半衰期制订给药方案的探讨

为探讨药效法估测的效应消除半衰期和效量法估测的表观半衰期对合理制订给药方案的意义和作用,以桂枝汤解热和抗炎的药物动力学实验中所得的相应参数值设计了给药方案,观察了它们在提高药效上的作用。结果表明在给药总剂量相等、首次给药同时开始的情况下,以半衰期设计的给药方案组的药效均明显高于习惯的一次给药组;而以效应消除半衰期设计给药方案组药效增强率又高于以表观半衰期设计的方案组。提示效应消除半衰期比表观半衰期似更有实践意义。     

Effect of chronic renal failure on high-density lipoprotein kinetics

Plasma lipid and lipoprotein concentration and high density lipoprotein (HDL) kinetics were determined in control subjects and patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Results demonstrated that plasma triglyceride (TG) concentration was significantly higher (P less than 0.001) in patients with CRF, associated with a significant increase in plasma VLDL-cholesterol (P less than 0.002) and a significant decrease (P less than 0.05) in plasma HDL-cholesterol concentration. The rate of removal of 125I-apoAI/HDL from plasma was slower (P less than 0.001) in the patients with CRF, resulting in an increase in the residence time of 125I-apoAI/HDL (P less than 0.001) and a decrease in the fractional catabolic rate (P less than 0.001). Since plasma apoAI concentration was lower in patients with CRF, total apoAI/HDL synthetic rate was also significantly (P less than 0.05) decreased. These data provide support for the view that low plasma HDL-cholesterol concentrations in patients with CRF are related to decreases in the synthetic rate of apoAI/HDL.     

固体硅胶隆鼻术后感染排异的原因与预防探讨

感染及排异是固体硅胶隆鼻术较为严重的并发症。其发生原因主要在于手术适应证掌握不当；硅胶假体的质量不过关，假体的修雕成形不佳，假体消毒处理不严；手术操作及术后处理欠妥等。提出了加强术前体检及适应证的掌握，选择质量过关的硅胶假体，努力提高术者的审美及专业技术水平，设计修雕成形出恰当的假体，并注意规范假体的消毒处理，这都可有效减少感染及排异并发症的发生。强调手术操作时尽量减少局部组织的损伤，勿剥破鼻部的皮肤及粘膜，并做好术后的处理及护理，这同样也是减少感染排异并发症的关键。     

补益中药对老龄雄性大鼠下丘脑神经递质——甲状腺轴机能作用的研究

本文通过对3月龄、18月龄、24月龄雄性大鼠下丘脑去甲肾上腺素(NE)、多巴胺(DA)、5-羟色胺(5-HT)、5-羟吲哚乙酸(5-HIAA),和下丘脑垂体促甲状腺释放激素(TRH)、垂体、血甲状腺释放激素(TSH)、血甲状腺激素(T_3、T_4)的测定,研究了大鼠下丘脑神经递质与甲状腺轴机能的增龄性变化,并在此基础上探讨了补益中药对老龄大鼠下丘脑—垂体—甲状腺机能的作用。结果提示:老龄大鼠下丘脑机能的减退是甲状腺轴机能减退的重要原因;补益中药可能改善了老龄大鼠下丘脑的调控机能,进而延缓了甲状腺轴机能的老年性变化。
