老年人根管治疗疗效的相关因素

目的:研究老年人根管治疗疗效及其影响因素.方法:对56例65岁以上老年人,根管治疗后2年以上的126颗牙齿进行检查,按治疗后年限分3组:2～3年组,4～5年组,6年以上组.应用根尖周指数(Periodicalindex)评定X线片和综合临床检查,对其治疗进行评价.结果:老年人根管治疗成功率为72.2%;三组间根管治疗成功率差异无显著性.恰填根管治疗的成功率(82.2%)比欠填和超填的成功率(47.2%)要高;恰填病例中,冠方修复体质量好的患牙比质量差的患牙根尖周炎发病率低(25.7%和58.4%);去除欠填和超填病例后,桩冠修复患牙的根管治疗成功率为58.8%,而未做桩冠修复的患牙成功率为87.5%.结论:根充质量、冠方修复体质量、桩冠修复是影响老年人根管治疗疗效的主要因素.     

老年人肺功能与年龄增长的关系

目的: 探讨60岁以上老人动态肺功能随年龄增长的变化规律及机制.方法: 用日本PM-81型胸描仪对60岁以上老人动态肺功能的各项指标进行测量和分析.结果: 60岁以上老人动态肺功能各项指标均随年龄增加而降低,差异有高度显著性(P<0.01).结论: 60岁以上老人动态肺功能随年龄的增加而降低.其机制主要是呼吸中枢的功能降低,肺和胸廓的弹性阻力、呼吸道的非弹性阻力增加所致.     

老年人急性阑尾炎的腹腔镜手术治疗

目的 探讨老年人急性阑尾炎的临床特点，更好地把握腹腔镜阑尾切除（LA）术的方法和特点。方法 回顾分析50例老年人急性阑尾炎LA的临床资料。结果 LA均获成功，患者全部治愈，无严重的并发症发生，肠功能恢复时间及住院时间均缩短。结论 老年人反应迟钝，阑尾炎进展快，易发生坏疽及穿孔，合并症多，手术风险较高，LA是安全、可行的，除个别腹膜后阑尾炎外，其余均可施行LA。     

中国传统医学对老年痿证认识的源流

作者首先指出，目前，中医文献对搂证概念的使用比较混乱，接着作者对中国传统医学对本证的认识源流进行了追溯。作者指出，瘘症首先见于《黄帝内经》，仲景之书，未专立篇论及瘘证，只是在《伤寒论》及《金匮要略》中提到通。继仲景之后，晋、唐、宋、金、元、明诸医家在《内经》的基础上，深化了对瘘证的认识，综历代医家所述，瘘证可见以下证候；１、燥热瘘软；２、湿热瘘软；３、肺热瘘软；４、心热瘘软；５、肝热瘘软、６、脾热     

老年男性心肌缺血患者心率变异分析（附67例报告）

采用正常搏动ＲＲ间期的标准差（ＳＤ）及心率变异指数（ＨＲＶ ｉｎｄｅｘ）作为指标，分析６７例老年男性心肌缺血患者的心率变异，并与正常老年男性组及正常青壮年男性组进行了对比，发现前组的ＲＲ间期ＳＤ、ＨＲＶｉｎｄｅｘ均明显低于后两组，其结果有显著性差异（Ｐ均〈０．０１）。提示心肌缺血可破坏交感与迷走神经的均衡性，造成心率变异降低。

Periodontal conditions among the middle-aged and the elderly in Hong Kong

Abstract The aim of this study was to describe the periodontal conditions in 372 35–44-yr-old and 537 noninstitutionalized 65–74-yr-old Hong Kong Chinese who were examined clinically for loss of attachment, recession, probing depth, calculus, and bleeding after probing. Community Periodontal Index (CPI) data and treatment need indications were compiled from index teeth or their substitutes. The prevalence of loss of attachment varied considerably in both cohorts according to the definition of the threshold (≥6, ≥9, and ≥12 mm, respectively). The mean numbers of teeth with loss of attachment at the ≥6-mm threshold and at higher thresholds were small. In both age cohorts, about one-fifth of subjects had probing depths ≥6-mm, while al the ≥9-mm threshold only 2–3% were so affected. Although recession was an important component of loss of attachment in the younger cohort, in the older cohort the prevalence and extent of recession were greater than for probing depths at thresholds ≥4 mm. All subjects had one or more teeth with calculus, bleeding, or both, most teeth being so affected. Eighty-four of the 537 65–74-yr-old subjects were excluded either because of edentulousness or because extractions indicated for the remaining teeth would have rendered the subjects edentulous. The distribution of subjects according to their highest CPI score was remarkably similar for the two cohorts. No subjects in either age group were assessed as “healthy” (CPI code 0) or had “bleeding only” (code 1) as their highest score. While most subjects scored CPI code 2 or 3 us their highest score, only 17% of the younger and 15% of the older cohort scored Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) code 4. Differences in the mean number of sextants affected by CPI codes between the two cohorts were mainly due to a greater number of excluded sextants in the older cohort. CPI findings for 35–44-yr-olds differed little from those reported in 1984.
