急性心肌梗塞猝死的诱因及抢救(附13例报告)

本文报告了急性心肌梗塞猝死13例。分析猝死的诱因主要有血清钾浓度降低,严重心律失常,包括室内传导阻滞、室性并行心律、室性早搏等。近年来急性心肌梗塞的发病率日趋增高,心源性猝死也随之增多,有必要对猝死的诱因进行探讨,以采取有效的抢救措施。     

血清TPS浓度在消化道肿瘤中价值的研究

共选择３０例消化道肿瘤病人，其中食管癌，胃癌，大肠癌各１０例，设健康献血者３０例，对两组血清特异型组织多肽抗原浓度进行了检测，结果肿瘤组血清ＴＰＳ浓度明显高于健康人。消化道肿瘤阳性检出经达７０％，其中食管癌８０％，胃癌６０％，大肠癌７０％。消化道肿瘤合并淋巴转移阳性检出率达７６．９％，其中食管癌１００％，胃癌６６．７％，大肠癌７０．０％。随着病程发展，血清ＴＰＳ浓度呈现升高趋势。     

Cellular localization of immunoreactive epidermal growth factor during Wolffian duct differentiation of the fetal mouse

Previous studies from this laboratory indicated a role for epidermal growth factor (EGF) in androgen-dependent male reproductive tract differentiation of the fetal mouse. Expression of an EGF-like protein during Wolffian duct differentiation was indicated from the determinations by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and radioreceptor assay. To further characterize the protein and to assess its role in male sexual differentiation, expression of the protein has been analyzed by Western blot assay and its tissue-specific cellular expression has been determined by immunocytochemical assay in the present study. Western blot analysis of the 18-day fetal male reproductive tract detected an immunoreactive band of the predicted 6-kDa size. Immunocytochemical analysis also detected EGF-specific immunostaining in the Wolffian duct derivatives. At day 18 of gestation, the staining was localized predominantly in the epithelial nuclei of the Wolffian duct derivatives whereas at days 14 and 16 of gestation, the staining was equally distributed in the mesenchymal and epithelial sites of the Wolffian duct derivative. The intensity of the staining increased with progression of differentiation during the 14th–18th days of gestation. Prenatal exposure to the antiandrogen flutamide significantly reduced the immunostaining of the duct. Thus, a role for EGF in Wolffian duct differentiation is indicated.     

Successful weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass after cardiac surgery using inhaled nitric oxide

Two cases of very difficult weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass after cardiac surgery in children with pulmonary hypertension and ventricular dysfunction are reported. Children fail to respond to conventional therapy combining nitrovasodilators and inotropic support and react successfully to combined inhaled nitric oxide (NO) and epinephrine or left atrial infused norepinephrine. Postoperative NO inhalation must be prolonged and no toxicity appears. Pulmonary endothelial function recovers only after several days.     

Modified Ultrafiltration Attenuates Dilutional Coagulopathy in Pediatric Open Heart Operations

Background. Extreme hemodilution caused by relatively large prime volumes required for cardiopulmonary bypass in infants causes a dilutional coagulopathy, characterized by low concentrations of fibrinogen and other circulating coagulation factors. Modified ultrafiltration results in hemoconcentration and is associated with decreases in postoperative bleeding and transfusion requirements in children. This study was undertaken to quantify the effect of modified ultrafiltration on concentrations of fibrinogen, plasma proteins, and platelets in infants and small children.

Methods. Twenty patients less than 15 kg were studied. Cardiopulmonary bypass circuits were primed with crystalloid solutions. Red blood cells were added during cardiopulmonary bypass for hematocrits less than 15%. Colloid solutions were not administered. Concentrations of fibrinogen, plasma proteins, and platelets, and hematocrit were measured before cardiopulmonary bypass, before modified ultrafiltration, and after modified ultrafiltration.

Results. Modified ultrafiltration was associated with significant (p < 0.001) increases in hematocrit (19% ± 6% to 31% ± 9%), fibrinogen (65 ± 29 to 101 ± 45 mg/dL), and total plasma proteins (2.7 ± 0.3 to 4.9 ± 0.7 g/dL), but no change (p = 0.129) in platelet count.

Conclusions. We conclude that modified ultrafiltration significantly attenuates the dilutional coagulopathy associated with cardiopulmonary bypass in infants.     

Sclerosed liver hemangioma mimicking malignant tumor at MR imaging: Pathologic correlation

This case report illustrates atypical magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings in a liver hemangioma mimicking a malignant lesion—lower signal intensity than cerebrospinal fluid on T2-weighted spin-echo images and lack of early enhancement on dynamic contrast material—enhanced gradient-echo images. Pathologic analysis demonstrated nearly total replacement of the vascular cavities by dense fibrous tissue. In this rare, sclerosed form, this lesion could not be defined as a hemangioma with MR imaging.     

Adhesins of uropathogenic bacteria: Properties,identification and use for new antibacterial strategies

Adherence is a major virulence factor in the complex pathogenesis of urinary tract infections (UTI). Colonization of the urinary tract and subsequent spread of infection ascending to the kidneys depends not only on the expression of adhesins by bacteria but also on the presence of host factors which may either contribute to or inhibit infection. The presence of certain types of adhesins expressed by the bacteria and their interactions with epithelial cells play a role in determining where bacteria localize in the urinary tract, the kind and severity of symptoms and how the disease progresses. The knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying adherence may be useful for epidemiological research in the pathogenesis of UTI, for the diagnosis of different types of UTI and, in some cases, for prognosis. Furthermore, attachment to epithelia is a promising target for developing new methods in prophylaxis and therapy.     

磁共振尿路成像对泌尿系疾病的诊断价值

目的评价磁共振尿路成像(Magneticresonanceurography,MRU)对泌尿系疾病的诊断价值。方法对36例泌尿系疾病患者进行MRU检查,并结合临床手术、病理资料和其他影像学资料进行回顾性分析。结果36例患者中,均有MRU阳性结果,3例肾盂、肾盏癌,4例前列腺癌,8例前列腺增生症,2例输尿管癌定性、定位明确;9例肾盂、输尿管移行段梗阻定位明确,定性有帮助;10例输尿管下段梗阻中6例诊断明确,4例未能确诊。结论MRU在泌尿系疾病的诊断中,对肿瘤的定位、定性参考价值较高,对尿路梗阻定位诊断有价值,对定性诊断帮助有其局限性。
