An experimentally supported, mathematical explanation of the gas chromatographic elution behaviour of the long-chain carbon members of the homologous series

By substituting the saturated vapour phase tension of the pure normal hydrocarbons described by the Clausius-Clapeyron law into the accepted expression of the specific retention volume (V_g,T), a theoretically coherent and relatively simple mathematical evidence of the elution behaviour of the homologous members has been deduced. It gives exponential retention time dependence on carbon number for isothermal, and nearly equidistant (i.e., approximately linear retention-time dependence on carbon number) elution for linear temperature programmed gas chromatographic runs. The final equations are in close correlation with the experimental results. Special emphasis is placed on the fact that a good approximation—not strict physical laws—have been found.     

不同输血方式对肺鳞癌患者围术期TNF—α和IL—lO的影响

[目的]探讨同种输血和自体输血对肺鳞癌患者围术期肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)和白细胞介素—10(IL—10)的影响和相互关系。[方法]2001年1月至2003年1月对31例肺鳞癌患者行肺癌根治术，将其分为两组，同种输血组(A组)17例，自体输血组14例(B组)。测定两组围术期血清中TNF-α和IL—10的浓度。[结果]A组输血后d1与输血前相比血清中TNF-α、IL-10浓度增高，以IL—10变化尤为明显，输血后d5TNF-α降低并接近输血前的水平，明显低于B组，IL—10仍明显高于输血前的水平。B组中不同时问IL—10无显著变化，TNF-α于ds明显高于输血前。[结论]肺鳞癌患者围术期同种输血后血清中TNF-α降低与IL—10升高有关，IL—10升高可能是同种输血后免疫抑制的重要原因。自体输血可减轻或去除这一作用。     

Measurement of kinetic parameters in skeletal muscle by magnetic resonance imaging with an intravascular agent.

The purpose of this work was to investigate the use of an intravascular contrast agent to determine perfusion kinetics in skeletal muscle. A two-compartment kinetic model was used to represent the flux of contrast agent between the intravascular space and extravascular extracellular space (EES). The relationship between the image signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and errors in estimating permeability surface area product (Ktrans), interstitial volume (ve), and plasma volume (vp) for linear and nonlinear curve-fitting methods was estimated from Monte Carlo simulations. Similar results were obtained for both methods. For an image SNR of 60, the estimated errors in these parameters were 10%, 22%, and 17%, respectively. In vivo experiments were conducted in rabbits to examine physiological differences between these parameters in the soleus (SOL) and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles in the hind limb. Values for Ktrans were significantly higher in the SOL (3.2+/-0.9 vs. 2.0+/-0.5x10(-3) min-1), as were values for vp (3.4+/-0.8 vs. 2.1+/-0.7%). Differences in ve for the two muscles (8.7+/-2.2 vs. 8.5+/-1.6%) were not found to be significant. These results demonstrate that relevant physiological metrics can be calculated in skeletal muscle using MRI with an intravascular contrast agent.

Does monthly native arteriovenous fistula blood-flow surveillance detect significant stenosis--a randomized controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Clinical practice guidelines recommend that the preferred method of surveillance for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the measurement of AVF blood flow (Qa). As these recommendations are based on observational studies, we conducted a randomized, prospective, double-blind, controlled trial to assess whether Qa surveillance results in an increased detection of AVF stenosis. METHODS: A total of 137 patients were randomly assigned to receive either continuing AVF surveillance using current clinical criteria (control, usual treatment) or usual treatment plus AVF blood-flow surveillance by ultrasound dilution (Qa surveillance group). The primary outcome measure was the detection of a significant (>50%) AVF stenosis. RESULTS: There were 67 and 68 patients assigned to the control and Qa surveillance groups, respectively. Patients in the Qa surveillance group were twice as likely to have a stenosis detected compared with the control hazard ratio (HR) confidence interval (CI) group (2.27, 95% 0.85-5.98, P = 0.09), with a trend for a significant stenosis to be detected earlier in the Qa surveillance group (P = 0.09, log rank test). However, using the Qa results alone prior to angiography, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated, at best, a moderate prediction of (>50%) AVF stenosis (0.78, 95% CI 0.63-0.94, P = 0.006). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that the addition of AVF Qa monitoring to clinical screening for AVF stenosis resulted in a non-significant doubling in the detection of angiographically significant AVF stenosis. Further, large multi-centre randomized trials are feasible and will be necessary to confirm whether Qa surveillance and the correction of detected AVF stenosis will lead to a reduction in AVF thrombosis and increased AVF survival.     

Differential diagnosis of leg ulcers

In Germany about 0.7 % of the adult population have a chronic leg ulcer. Although chronic venous insufficiency accounts for at least 80 % of all chronic leg ulcers, knowledge of the relevant differential diagnostic considerations is of crucial importance, in particular for patients who are refractory to therapy. In addition to vascular disease, other causes include neuropathic, metabolic, hematologic and exogenous factors as well as neoplasias, infections, drugs, genetic defects and some primary skin disorders. For the long‐term successful treatment of patients with chronic leg ulcers, it is necessary to identify all relevant factors, in order to enable a pathogenesis‐oriented, interdisciplinary therapeutic approach.

肥胖者骨密度与体重及其他体成分关系的研究

目的肥胖易伴发多种慢性疾病。本文探讨肥胖者体重与体成份(脂肪、肌肉)之间的关系及其对临床减重的意义。方法经临床确诊系单纯性肥胖者45例,男17例,女28例。使用美国LunarDPX-L型双能X线吸收测量仪(DXA),测量全身骨、第2~4腰椎、股骨颈骨矿密度(BMD)及体脂肪和肌肉量,并计算体重指数(BMI=W/H2)、体重(kg)/身高(m)即W/H数值进行比较分析。结果男性体重平均94.54±17.41kg,BMI33±4.87。女性体重平均124.37±14.0kg,BMI35.41±6.39。男女两性全身BMD与体重相关,分别为r=0.415,P<0.05,r=0.529,P<0.0025。女性体重与脂肪、肌肉之间呈正相关分别为r=0.522,P<0.0025、r=0.612,P<0.005。男性体重与BMI、W/H及全身肌肉量相关,与脂肪组织无明显相关。男女性W/H较BMI相关系数高。男性全身BMD与全身肌肉量正相关r=0.421,P<0.05。女性全身及股骨颈BMD与脂肪量相关r=0.360,P<0.05、r=0.323,P<0.05。女性全身肌肉量与股骨颈BMD呈正相关r=0.373,P<0.05。结论①肥胖者体重增加,男性以肌肉增加为主,女性脂肪和肌肉都增加;②男性全身骨密度增高与肌肉量增加有关,而女性则主要为脂肪量增加;③女性肌肉、脂肪量与股骨颈BMD密切相关;④体重(kg)/身高(m)比计算体重指数能更准确地反映总体肥胖的程度。
