慢性肺心病并发多器官衰竭（附70例报告）

１９８６～１９９２年我院共收治急性发作期慢性肺心病１９６例，其中因严重肺部感染发生多器官衰竭（ＭＯＦ）者７０例（３５．７％），平均受损脏器２．５个，死亡２６例，总病死率为３７．１％。其中２和３个脏器受损者的病死率分别为２０．１％和４４．４％，而４和５个脏器受损者则均死亡。血气分析显示ｐＨ和ＰａＯ２值与受损脏器数目呈负相关，而ＰａＣＯ２值与受损脏器数目呈正相关。本文讨论了肺心病因肺部感染并发ＭＯＦ的发病机理，并提出防治的措施。     

Life-threatening respiratory failure due to cranial dystonia after dental procedure in a patient with multiple system atrophy.

We report on a woman with a an 8-year history of multiple system atrophy with predominance of parkinsonism who developed jaw-locking oromandibular dystonia within hours after insertion of ill-fitting dentures. Dystonia spread rapidly to involve other facial muscles and the larynx causing stridor with respiratory failure necessitating crush intubation.     

Prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disorders in a Spanish multiple sclerosis cohort

The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of thyroid autoimmune disorders in a cohort of untreated multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and compare it with a stratified sample of an adult population. We prospectively studied 93 untreated MS patients. The control group included 401 healthy subjects selected by stratified sampling in a non-iodine-deficient area. Antithyroid antibodies (ATA) (antibodies against peroxidase and thyroglobulin) were considered positive at titres ≥149 IU/ml. Antibodies were positive in 11 MS patients (11.8%; 95% CI 5.3–18.4%). This prevalence was five times higher ( P  = 0.0001) when compared with that in the control population. We found six cases with subclinical hypothyroidism (6.45%; 95% CI 11.4–1.5) in contrast to 2.24% in the control group. Comparing MS with positive and negative ATA, there was a non-significant, slightly higher frequency of low Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score in the ATA-positive group (81% vs. 73.2%). One year after start of interferon (IFN) treatment, only one patient developed subclinical thyroid dysfunction. MS patients have a higher prevalence of ATA compared with the general population. An initial ATA and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) determination is recommended in all MS patients. A periodic assessment of thyroid function during IFN treatment only seems to be justified in those cases where positive ATA or dysfunction is present before treatment.     

反应停治疗难治性多发性骨髓瘤6例

目的：探讨反应停治疗难治性多发性骨髓瘤(MM)的临床疗效。方法：对6例难治疗性多发性骨髓瘤应用反应停治疗后的临床资料进行分析，并结合文献复习，为该病的治疗提供一条思路。结果：1例患者达完全缓解；1例患者达部分缓解；1例进步，血清M蛋白减少35％、骨痛明显减轻、血沉降低40％、血红蛋白上升20g／L；2例无效；1例死亡。结论：反应停对多发性骨髓瘤有较好的疗效，不良反应可以耐受且不产生骨髓抑制：抗血管新生是其主要疗效机制。     

动脉自旋标记法磁共振成像在颈动脉狭窄性脑缺血疾病中的初步应用

目的:对比研究颈动脉严重狭窄患者动脉自旋标记法(ASL)和动态磁化率效应对比剂增强(DSC)磁共振脑灌注成像表现,探讨ASL的临床运用价值。材料和方法:健康自愿者12例,行DSC和ASL,计算左侧大脑中动脉供血区与右侧相应区域相对脑血流量(rCBF)比值并进行比较。病例组为单侧颈内动脉狭窄程度≥70％患者32例,计算DSC和ASL所得的患侧与健侧大脑中动脉供血区rCBF比值并进行比较。结果:12例健康自愿者所测的DSC和ASL的rCBF比值分别为1．0012±0．1030和1．0015±0．1611,无统计学差异。32例患者中,15例患者灌注异常,DSC与ASL的rCBF比值相比无显著性差异(P=0．072)。结论:ASL序列能快速无创的提供脑灌注情况,可作为初步了解颈动脉狭窄性脑缺血疾病脑灌注情况的常规检查方法。     

Phase II Trial of Fludarabine Phosphate in Multiple Myeloma Using a Loading Dose and Continuous Infusion Schedule

A phase II trial of fludarabine phosphate using a bolus and continuous infusion regimen in previously treated multiple myeloma was performed. No responses were observed in eleven patients. There was no significant non-hematologic toxicity noted. Fludarabine phosphate is inactive in multiple myeloma using this schedule.     

基于64层CT对心脏体模冠脉狭窄成像的客观评估方法

本文设计了一种心脏冠脉狭窄程度的客观评估方法，并自行开发了工具软件对图像数据进行自动处理和计算。此后，本文采用该方法对四组心脏动态体模冠脉狭窄成像的数据进行了分析，对该客观评估方法各方面的特性进行了检验和评定。     

Nucleolus-associated J chains in myeloma cells: clinical significance

Bone marrow aspirates from 20 patients with multiple myeloma (MM), 4 with smoldering multiple myeloma (S-MM), 1 with idiopathic Bence Jones proteinuria (I-BJP), and 6 with primary macroglobulinemia (PMG) were examined for nucleolus-associated J chain. The incidence of nucleolar J chain-positive (J+) cells among nucleolated cells producing M-component was measured. This incidence (94.0-100%) in terminal MM was significantly higher than that (0-58.0%) in non-terminal MM. Judging from a low incidence in the remission phase, chemotherapy might cause a selective elimination of less differentiated myeloma cells with J+ nucleoli and might have some effect on J chain synthesis. The incidence of nucleolar J+ cells was very low in S-MM. The IgM cells in PMG, where J chain is present in a disulfide-linked form, had no or few J+ nucleoli. No correlation between the incidence of nucleolar J+ cells among nucleolated plasma cells and the percentage of nucleolated cells or that of J+ cells was found. Large J+ nucleoli seemed to be another morphological feature indicating anaplastic myeloma cells. A high incidence of nucleolar J+ cells may be one of the indicators for progressive disease.
