目的 :探讨夜间电子生物阻抗测量装置 (NEVA)在阴茎勃起功能障碍的诊断中的应用价值。方法 :对 4 1例主诉阴茎勃起功能障碍者 (障碍组 ) 19例主诉无勃起功能障碍但有射精障碍者 (无障碍组 )进行NEVA检测。结果 :障碍组夜间试验中的夜间勃起的次数、阴茎勃起的最大体积改变、最长持续时间等客观指标均要差于无障碍组 ,差异有统计学意义 (P <0 .0 1)。结论 :NEVA为非侵入性检测、可鉴别心理性阴茎勃起功能障碍和严重的器质性勃起功能障碍 ,且对勃起功能障碍的定性和定量具有一定的客观性。     

Effectiveness of an intensive stress intervention workshop for senior managers

This study investigates the efficacy of an intensive, integrated approach to stress reduction and coping enhancement directed towards an educated, upper level management population. Ninety‐five US governmental senior managers participated in a 35‐h stress management retreat held over a 3.5‐day period. The retreat combined didactic and experiential activities that were designed to increase participants' knowledge of stress liabilities and coping skills. Participants were encouraged to make positive lifestyle changes and to create specific action plans for the year following the workshop. Evaluations of participant satisfaction were completed at the close of the workshop. Eighty‐three participants completed baseline and follow‐up Stress and Coping Inventory (SCI) assessments in order to identify durable changes in these measures. Across 10 months, participants showed significant improvements in their overall Global Balance scores, psychological symptoms, depression symptoms, and all major coping scales, including Health Habits, Social Support, Responses to Stress and Life Satisfactions. Therefore, an intensive, multifaceted approach to stress intervention is a viable option for encouraging sustained behavioural change. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

211例下肢长骨骨折带锁髓内钉固定的临床评价

目的 对211例下肢长骨骨折带锁髓内钉内固定治疗的临床结果进行评价。方法 用不扩髓带锁髓内钉为主要固定方法，对211例股骨、胫骨骨折进行手术复位内固定治疗，术后进行包括CPM在内的有序功能锻炼。结果 获得随访189例，时间4～26个月，平均9个月。全组病例获得骨性愈合，无骨不连发生，骨折延迟愈合7例，膝关节功能受限4例。按Johner-wruch标准：优158例，良22例，中9例，优良率95．2％。结论 带锁髓内钉是治疗下肢长骨骨折较好的方法，其适应证较以往有进一步的拓展，术中骨折复位与保存骨折块血供并重的理念是正确的。

A New Method for Estimating Dermal Absorption from Chemical Exposure. 3. Compared with Steady-State Methods for Prediction and Data Analysis

Purpose. This paper compares unsteady-state and steady-state methods for estimating dermal absorption or analyzing dermal absorption data. The unsteady-state method accounts for the larger absorption rates during short exposure times as well as the hydrophilic barrier which the viable epidermis presents to lipophilic chemicals. Methods. Example calculations for dermal absorption from aqueous solutions are presented for five environmentally relevant chemicals with molecular weights between 50 and 410 and log₁₀K_ow between 0.91 and 6.8: chloromethane, chloroform, chlordane, 2,3,7,8-TCDD, and dibenz(a,h)anthracene. Also, the new method is used to evaluate experimental procedures and data analyses of in vivo and in vitro permeation measurements. Results. In the five example cases, we show that the steady-state approach significantly underestimated the dermal absorption. Also, calculating permeability values from cumulative absorption data measured for exposure periods less than 18 times the stratum corneum lag time will overestimate the actual permeability. Conclusions. In general, steady-state predictions of dermal absorption will underestimate dermal absorption predictions which consider unsteady-state conditions. Permeability values calculated from data sets which include unsteady-state data will be incorrect. Strategies for analyzing in vitro diffusion cell experiments and confirming steady state are described.     

Sulphanilic acid: divergent results in the guinea pig maximization test and the local lymph node assay

The guinea pig maximization test (GPMT) has proven to be a valuable tool for the identification of the skin sensitization potential of chemicals. The method identifies a hazard which can lead in the EC to compulsory labelling of that chemical. In the present study, data on sulphanilic acid derived from the GPMT has been compared with results from a second guinea pig assay (the cumulative contact enhancement test) and the murine local lymph node assay, both of which require only topical application of chemical. Except for the GPMT, no test identified any sensitizing activity associated with exposure to sulphanilic acid. These latter results are consistent with the experience gained from substantial human exposure in an occupational setting and from which no cases of allergic contact dermatitis to sulphanilic acid have arisen over a 20-year period. In consequence, it is questioned which test protocol in practice has given the more accurate identification of sensitization hazard relevant to man.     

Psychological Assessment of the Headache Patient

Most clinicians agree that psychological factors are important considerations in the evaluation and treatment of headache patients. There has been a lack of systematic research, however, that has examined the relationship between these variables. Attention to such factors may become a greater concern as the frequency of a patient's headaches increases, there is increased disability secondary to headaches, and/or there is an inadequate response to usually effective treatment. In addition, there is no consensus as to the proper method to assess psychopathology in headache patients.     

胃癌个体危险度及人群筛检数量化评价的研究

目的：建立胃癌个体危险度判定及人群筛检的数量化模型。方法：在人群为基础的胃癌危险因素病例对照研究的基础上筛选出有统计学意义变化，应用概率论、模糊数学等原理和方法对胃癌危险因素和保护因素数量化，建立用于个体胃癌危险度测量和人群筛检的数量化评价方法（数学模型）。采用两种不同的加权系数计算方法，分别确定该数量化方法的判别阈值为0．20和0．17，对63例胃癌患者和693名正常人进行实际判别。结果：灵敏度和特异度均分别达到69％和63％左右，加权系数计算方法不同并不影响实际判别效果。结论：建立的胃癌个体危险度及人群筛检的数量化模型灵敏度和特异度尚理想；方法简便、易行、经济，有利于获得满意的受检率；可用于个体和群体（社区）的胃癌危险度测定。     

急性重症胆管炎的预后因素分析

目的分析急性重症胆管炎(ACST)的预后因素,探讨合理的治疗方案。方法对168例ACST病人的临床资料进行回顾性分析,采用卡方(χ2)检验进行统计处理。结果影响ACST的预后因素有年龄、入院时休克与否、是否合并器官功能障碍综合征(MODS)、治疗方式及手术时机,而既往有无胆管炎发作史与预后无明显相关。结论针对影响预后的因素,及时采取手术干预,可提高治疗效果、降低病死率。
