亚低温在治疗急性颅脑创伤中的疗效和争议

二十世纪90年代初,国内外对亚低温脑保护的作用有了新认识。动物实验研究发现亚低温对实验性颅脑外伤具有显著的治疗保护作用。大多数前瞻性临床应用研究发现30～33℃亚低温能显著降低重型颅脑伤患者的死残率。但美国Clifton教授牵头的9个医学中心合作研究发现亚低温治疗组与对照组无统计学差异.仅能显著提高GCS 6～8分、年龄<45岁、伤后6h内达到亚低温水平的病人的治疗效果。最近一项欧州5家医院多中心前瞻性随机临床研究结果令人兴奋,他们研究证明亚低温对心跳骤停脑缺血缺氧病人有显著治疗保护作用。目前国内外有关亚低温治疗的争议焦点是亚低温治疗的指征、时间窗和时程。

Late Effects of Childhood Acute Leukemia and Its Treatment

Late effects of childhood acute leukemia and its treatment were studied in 766 patients (684 ALL, 73 ANLL, and 9 others) in Japan who had remained in remission for more than 1 year after their first complete remission. Delayed adverse sequelae involve a wide variety of organs and their functions. Short stature was present in 2.61%, obesity in 3.79%, abnormalities of growth hormone secretion in 1.5%, delayed secondary sex characteristics in 1.5% of males and 0.6% of females, motor disturbances in 1.17%, sensory disturbances in 0.91%, intellectual and learning disabilities in 2.48%, abnormal findings in routine neurologic examinations in 1.31%, EEG abnormalities in 4.30%, brain CT abnormalities in 5.09% and cardiac dysfunction in 1.07%. Various other disorders were seen in 20 patients. Many of these delayed adverse sequelae are caused by or related to central nervous system prophylaxis and systemic combination chemotherapy. The results suggest that it is needed to improve therapeutic methods through the stratification of patients by risk factors and detailed analysis of prognostic factors. Moreover it is important to render medical and psychosocial support to long-term survivors of childhood leukemia through interactions between the patient, parents and medical staff.     

外伤后癫痫大鼠模型脑内铁蛋白与转铁蛋白含量的动态变化研究

目的:从脑内铁代谢的角度研究铁在外伤后癫(PTE)发病机制中的可能作用。方法:用ELISA方法检测PTE大鼠模型脑组织内铁蛋白(Ft)和转铁蛋白(Tf)的动态含量。结果:早期Ft在整个脑组织内呈现为即刻反应性升高,15d后其含量在实验对侧脑组织内恢复至正常范围,而在实验侧脑组织内呈现继续升高的趋势;Tf含量只在实验侧脑组织内升高,且呈现随时间继续升高趋势。结论:PTE大鼠模型中的铁代谢过程十分复杂,相关蛋白尤其是Tf含量的增加提示铁可能是外伤后癫灶形成机制的一部分。     

Duplex sonography of renal arteries as a diagnostic tool in hypertensive children

Computed duplex sonography was used to examine the renal arteries in 36 hypertensive children and adolescents (ages 4–17 years) with arterial hypertension of either renal or non-renal origin. Time-averaged flow velocities, maximum blood flow velocities as well as absolute renal blood flow and renal blood flow per gram kidney weight were measured. Normal flow velocities and normal to elevated renal blood flow volume was found in patients with acute glomerulonephritis and those with signs of chronic glomerulonephritis onset. Patients having advanced stages of chronic glomerulonephritis, on the other hand, were characterized by lower levels of all parameters. Unilateral renal artery stenosis was diagnosed correctly in four patients, although one intra-renal artery stenosis escaped imaging. Scarred kidneys exhibited low-normal or reduced flow velocities and renal blood flow volumes corresponded roughly to kidney size and preservation of normal kidney structure. Hypertension in some patients with normal kidneys showed a tendency to cause higher renal blood flow without consistent acceleration of blood flow velocities. We conclude that duplex sonography is a suitable primary diagnostic tool in measuring blood flow velocities and absolute renal blood flow volume in hypertensive children, thus facilitating the choice of the next diagnostic step.     

Single photon emission computerized tomography in childhood hydrocephalus

Single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) is now widely used as one of the tools in evaluating cerebral blood flow (CBF). The authors report the CBF changes in childhood hydrocephalus. Five pediatric cases studied by ¹²³I-IM SPECT in children are presented. The authors counted radioactivities both in early and delayed images in each patient, and calculated the reabsorption ratio (RR). Two negative-RR cases and three positive-RR cases were found. All of the negative-RR patients had a poor prognosis, while all of the positive-RR patients had a favorable outcome.

双侧同时开颅治疗重型颅脑损伤随机对照临床研究

目的探讨双侧同时开颅手术治疗重型颅脑损伤（sTBI）的疗效。方法49例sTBI患者，分为双侧同时开颅手术（治疗组）和传统手术方式（对照组）并于3个月后进行COS评定。结果治疗组27例，恢复良好9例，中度残疾5例，重残4例，植物生存2例，死亡7例。对照组22例，恢复良好3例，中度残疾0例，重残3例，植物生存6例，死亡10例，（P〈0．05）。结论采用双侧同时开颅手术治疗sTBI疗效优于传统手术方式。     

Laparoscopic repair of recurrent childhood inguinal hernias after open herniotomy

Background Open repair of recurrent paediatric inguinal hernias (IH) is difficult and there is definite risk of damaging the vas deferens and testicular vessels during dissection of the previous open herniotomy field. Laparoscopic repair (LR) has the benefit of avoiding the previous operative site. Method Records of patients with recurrent IH that had LR after open repair were reviewed and evaluated retrospectively. The results were compared with data from cases in which the LR method was used in the initial IH repair. Results From September 2002 to October 2005, four boys and one girl (mean age 58.8 months) were treated in our institution for recurrent IH after open repair. Operative time, success rate and complications did not show any statistically significant difference when compared with our previous prospectively collected data for primary repairs. Conclusion Laparoscopic repair is the preferred operation for recurrent childhood IH after open repair.
