肠易激综合征Manning诊断标准的评价

目的 评价Manning标准诊断肠易激综合征(IBS)的真实性。方法 采用自行设计的调查表对499例对象进行调查。结果 1．随着Manning标准中结合指标数的增多，IBS组与非溃疡性消化不良及溃疡性结肠炎组鉴别的灵敏度及其95％CI明显下降，特异度及其95％CI明显上升，同时阳性预测值、阳性似然比及阴性似然比也明显上升。2．符合Manning标准中二项以上结合指标，IBS组就具有较好与健康对照组鉴别的灵敏度及其95％CI、特异度及其95％CI。结论 Manning标准中需要3项以上结合指标可较好地使IBS与非溃疡性消化不良或溃疡性结肠炎鉴别；2项以上结合指标可较好地使IBS与健康人鉴别。     

Psychiatrists' Use of Melatonin with Children

Background:  Melatonin is gaining popularity as a sedative agent with children. This study sought to characterise this practice more precisely as well as examine aspects of its safety and efficacy in order to develop treatment guidelines.
Method:  Postal surveys of two groups of psychiatrists: generic child psychiatrists and psychiatrists who regularly treat learning disabled children.
Results:  Both groups (all of the specialists and 81% of the non-specialists) reported regular but not frequent use of melatonin in their usual practice, mostly for night-settling sleep problems refractory to behavioural modification strategies, commonly in the context of neurodevelopmental disability (especially autism). Treatment was described as being 'usually successful' and side-effects were highly infrequent and mild in nature. Variations in most prescribing practices were identified (dosage, timing).
Conclusions:  Melatonin appears to represent a useful and relatively safe drug when used in specific circumstances; however, the evidence-base underpinning its use, particularly over the long-term, remains modest. Thus caution and clinical audit of practice is required.     

Cutaneous manifestations in the cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome, a variant of the classical Noonan syndrome. Report of a case and review of the literature

We report one patient with cardiofaciocutaneous (CFC) syndrome. He presented with clinical findings characteristic of this condition such as: cutaneous abnormalities, including ichthyosis, widespread keratosis pilaris, a peculiar craniofacial appearance with sparse, curly hair and low-set posteriorly rotated ears; congenital heart defects; and mild mental and motor retardation. We submit a comprehensive review of previously published articles regarding the dermatological findings in CFC syndrome (recently shown to be a variant of Noonan syndrome) emphasizing diagnostic criteria and its differentiation from the Costello syndrome.     

Acute pustulosis of the legs in diverticulitis with sigmoid stenosis: an overlap between bowel-associated dermatosis–arthritis syndrome and pustular pyoderma gangrenosum

BACKGROUND: Bowel-associated dermatosis-arthritis syndrome denotes the occurrence of diarrhoea with arthritis and skin lesions related to bowel disease with or without bowel bypass. In this condition, the histological finding of cutaneous aseptic neutrophilic cell infiltrate is non-specific and common to a wide spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses, including pyoderma gangrenosum. OBSERVATION: We describe a 78-year-old woman with fever, abdominal discomfort and arthralgias, who developed grouped pustular lesions on her shins with histologically spongiform pustule formation. Aetiological assessment disclosed diverticular disease with sigmoid stenosis. CONCLUSION: Although clinical and histological features in our case fit the diagnosis of bowel-associated dermatosis-arthritis syndrome, they may also correspond to a pustular variant of pyoderma gangrenosum. Our observation raises the question of the nosological classification of bowel-associated dermatosis-arthritis syndrome within the spectrum of neutrophilic diseases.     

关于中医证候研究的几点想法

中医证候学研究是目前中医药研究工作的前沿领域.近年来,虽从不同的角度取得了一些进展,但就本质而言,依旧没有明显的突破.虽然证候的传统定义是基本清楚的,但证候的宏观(定性)标准不十分规范,证候宏观(定性)标准量化研究方法有待统一.这在很大程度上阻碍了整个中医药现代化的进程,因此,证候的现代研究思路值得进一步探讨.在证候研究过程中,建议:(1)以现代疾病为切入点,从基本证候(单证)着手,逐步向复证研究过渡;(2)以人为研究对象,取得相当成果后再进行动物实验才有意义;(3)不仅要与生命科学接轨,更要与整个的自然科学接轨.     

妊高征患者胰岛素样生长因子水平及对胎儿生长发育的影响

目的：探讨妊娠高血压综合征(妊高征)患者血清胰岛素样生长因子(IGF-1)和胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋白-3(IGFBP-3)水平与疾病程度及新生儿出生体重之间的关系。方法：用放射免疫方法测定33例妊高征和32例正常血压妊娠妇女的血清IGF-1、IGFBP-3的水平。结果：重度妊高征组IGF-1显著低于正常组，IGFBP-3在各组间的水平浓度差异均无显著性，但IGF-1与IGFBP-3之间呈正相关。新生儿出生体重随妊高征严重程度的加剧而降低，各组间比较差异有显著性(F=5．453，P=0．002)。结论：妊高征患者的发病及严重程度与IGF-1有明显的关系，IGF-1与胎儿的发育及新生儿出生体重有明显的相关性。
