四逆汤煎煮过程中乌头类生物碱的溶出和水解平衡

目的 研究四逆汤中乌头类生物碱的溶出平衡和水解平衡。方法 利用电喷雾质谱分析，比较了制附子、四逆汤、四逆汤药渣和含有3种双酯型生物碱的混合对照品体系中的乌头碱类二萜生物碱。结果 在煎煮过程中双酯型生物碱溶解并发生水解反应，而脂类生物碱则难溶于水。乌头碱、中乌头碱、次乌头碱水溶性相近，但是次乌头碱在水中的热稳定性更高，C19二萜骨架上C3取代基(—OH或—H)的变化影响生物碱的稳定性。结论四逆汤中的乌头碱类生物碱的种类及含量由其溶解性和化学稳定性共同决定。     

流行性出血热危险因素的病例对照研究

用病例对照研究方法探索建德县罹患流行性出血热(EHF)的危险因素。经临床诊断和血清学证实的97例EHF病例,按年龄、性别和住同一医院与其他疾病病人作1:1配对调查。条件logistic回归模型分析,发现村中曾有EHF史、外出他县、野宿和直接接触鼠类四个因素是罹患EHF的危险因素,其相对危险度分别为35.67、11.94、18.18和7.36。病例家属隐性感染率(4.95％)与对照家属隐性感染率(5.12％)相似;病例与对照家中捕获的鼠类及其EHF抗体、抗原阳性率无显著性差异。     

神经活素对Pc12细胞作用的初步观察

从胎脑、颌下腺、肌肉组织中制备神经活素。其性能同脑活素一样：可促进Ｐｃ１２细胞的突起生长，提高其胞浆内乳酸脱氢酶活性，电泳显示二者有相同的三条带。提示：神经活素有可能替代脑活素应用于临床。     

Altered islet Beta-cell function before the onset of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus

Summary To define the glucose to insulin dose-response relationship before the onset of diabetes, we studied 22 nondiabetic co-twins of patients with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and nine control subjects. All had intravenous glucose tests at 0.02, 0.1 and 0.5 g/kg and were followedup prospectively for at least 6 years. Seven twins developed diabetes a mean of 7 months later; the remaining 15 are now unlikely to develop diabetes. The seven pre-diabetic twins had higher fasting insulin levels than control subjects (4.2±2.0 vs 1.8±1.8 nmol/l; p<0.05); but lower glucose clearance (1.0±0.5 vs 1.9±0.7 %/min; p<0.05), first phase insulin response at 0.5 g/kg (21.1±23.2 vs 143±50 nmol/l; p<0.0001), and total insulin responses at 0.1 g/kg (p<0.05) and 0.5 g/kg (p<0.00005). Using a curve-fitting programme, the normal glucose to insulin relationship was lost in prediabetic twins who had lower coefficient of determination (R²) than control subjects (p<0.01). In contrast, 15 low-risk twins and their nine control subjects had similar fasting glucose and insulin levels, glucose clearance, R² and insulin secretory responses to different glucose loads. The positive predictive values of subnormal R² and subnormal first phase insulin response were 67 % and 58 % respectively. These observations demonstrate an altered glucose to insulin dose-response relationship and loss of maximum insulin secretory response to glucose before the onset of Type 1 diabetes.     

紫外线照射充氧自血回输疗法治疗多形性红斑临床及甲皱微循环观察

采用紫外线充氧自血回输治疗多形性红斑的治疗组总有效率为１００％，对照组为４０％；甲皱微循环改善率治疗组为１００％，对照组为７５％，组间差异均有非常显著性（Ｐ＜０．０１）．观察证明，紫外线照射充氧自血回输疗法是治疗多形性红斑的一种好方法．     

Prevalence of anti-HCV in institutionalised mentally handicapped subjects

Data on the prevalence of antibody to hepatitis C virus among 278 subjects in an institution for the mentally handicapped were analysed by risk factors. A prevalence of 4% was found, higher than blood donors belonging to the same area (1.4%). No differences in prevalence with regard the length of residence, age, sex, degree of retardation or for presence of HBV markers were observed.     

用金标法快速测定血清中cTn-Ⅰ在急性心肌梗死诊断上的应用

为探讨急性心肌梗死和疑为心梗病人血中 c Tn I的敏感性和特异性 ,采用金标法对 5 2例就诊病人测定其血中 c Tn- 和酶学法测定 CK- MB两个指标 ,结果发现急性心肌梗死组病人血中的 c Tn- 敏感度高于 CK- MB,但二者无显著性差异 ;而疑为心梗病人血中的 c Tn- 敏感度高于 CK- MB且具有显著的特异性。c Tn- 的测定对急性心肌梗死病人的诊断和治疗具有特别重要的意义     

新生儿缺氧缺血性脑病血浆内皮素与肺功能的关系

目的 :探讨内皮素 (ET)、在新生儿缺氧缺血性脑病 (HIE)中的作用及与肺功能关系。方法 :将 4 2例 HIE患儿按病情分为轻、中、重三组 ,各组均在入院后第 2天采用婴儿体描箱进行潮气呼吸分析、有效气道阻力及功能残气量等肺功能测定同时用放射免疫法测定血浆 ET水平。结果 :中、重度 HIE组血浆 ET水平均高于轻度组及对照组 ;中、重度HIE组肺功能测定提示 TPTEF/ TE、VPEF/ VE、PEF的下降。重度 HIE组潮气量下降 ,有效气道阻力增高。结论 :血浆ET水平增高与 HIE病情的严重程度相一致 ,肺功能检测指标可以解释血浆 ET水平的增高在新生儿中、重度 HIE发生肺动脉高压及急性肺损伤中起的作用 ,对 HIE临床治疗有一定的指导作用     

The Swedish childhood diabetes study — a multivariate analysis of risk determinants for diabetes in different age groups

Summary In a nationwide incident case-referent study stepwise univariate analysis has revealed several risk determinants for childhood diabetes mellitus. In a multivariate analysis we have determined the set of risk determinants that would independently predict childhood Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes. Possible interactions between the risk determinants and differences in risk profiles with different ages at onset were also examined. Reported familial insulin-treated and non-insulin-treated diabetes were significant risk factors in all age groups, as was also a low frequency of milk intake. The frequency of infections and a high intake of foods rich in nitrosamine tended to interact (OR 11.8, p=0.053) indicating a synergistic effect. A Cox regression analysis revealed that stressful life events during the last year was the only variable that tended to affect the age at onset (p=0.055). This indicated that psychological stress may rather precipitate than induce Type 1 diabetes. A short breast-feeding duration (OR=3.81), and an increased body height (OR=3.82) contributed significantly to the predictive model in only the youngest age group (0–4 years). An increased frequency of infections in the year preceding onset (OR=2.15) and no vaccination against measles (OR=3.33) contributed significantly to the model only in the age group 5–9 years. Various nutrients had different impacts on the risk of developing Type 1 diabetes in different age groups. It is concluded that in the genetically susceptible child, risk factors which are associated with eating habits, frequency of infections, vaccination status, growth pattern and severe psychological stress affect the risk of developing diabetes independently of each other. The set of risk determinants varies with the age at onset. A high frequency of infections and a high frequency of nitrosamine-rich food intake seem to have a synergistic effect on the risk of developing diabetes in childhood.
