前列腺癌与增生性病变的流式细胞分析

应用流式细胞分析术（ＦＣＭ）对２０例前列腺癌（ＰＣ）和１５例良性前列腺组织作了ＤＮＡ含量检测，着重分析了ＰＣ及增生性病变的细胞增殖指数（ＰＩ）与ＤＮＡ指数（ＤＩ）。结果表明在良恶性前列腺组织中有明显差异（Ｐ＜０．０１）。２０例ＰＣ的组织学分级与ＦＣＭ检测结果有关，ＰＣ－Ⅲ与ＰＣ１－Ⅰ、ＰＣ－Ⅱ与ＰＣ－Ⅰ、ＰＣ－Ⅲ与ＢＰＨ的ＰＩ、ＤＩ相差显著（Ｐ＜０．０１）。本研究结果提示良恶性前列腺病变的ＰＩ与ＤＩ能较客观地反应不同细胞的生物活性，并对分化低、分级高的ＰＣ的恶性程度判断及其预后的推测，以及癌前病变的分析有意义。     

The concept of distinct but voluminous groups of bipolar and unipolar diseases

Summary One hundred and six affective (76 unipolar and 30 bipolar) and 101 schizoaffective patients (45 unipolar and 56 bipolar) were investigated after a long-term course of illness, evaluating sociodemographic and general data, the long-term course of illness, disability and psychosocial alterations according to WHO/DAS, WHO/PIRS and GAS, as well as several social consequences of the illness (living situation at the end of the observation time, downward occupational drift, downward social drift, premature retirement, achievement of the expected social development). Comparing the 30 bipolar affective and 56 bipolar schizoaffective disorders, no differences were found regarding (a) sociodemographic and general data (i.e. sex distribution, age at onset, education and occupation at onset, stable heterosexual relationship, premorbid personality and social interactions, mental illness in the family, broken home, life events, season of birth and social classes) and (b) relevant patterns of the long-term course. Regarding long-term out-come the only difference found concerned the more favourable outcome of the bipolar affective disorders according to WHO/DAS, while using GAS the difference was not statistically significant. No difference was found either between the two bipolar groups in the social consequences of the illness. The combining of both bipolar groups as bipolar diseases is discussed, as well as the use of the terms bipolar disease, affective subtype and bipolar disease, schizoaffective subtype.     

Renal functional reserve in children with reduced renal mass: study by two dietary periods

It has been suggested that the renal functional reserve (RFR) defined by the rise in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) after a protein load could disappear in patients with severe nephron loss but with a normal GFR. This study compared, in 17 children, inulin clearance (C _in) measured by the plasma inulin plateau at the end of two 14-day randomized periods differing in protein intake: 100% (low protein, LP), or 200% (high protein, HP) of recommended dictary allowances (RDA). Diets were aimed at maintaining food habits and energy intake. Compliance was assessed by records of the last 3–4 days, an interview with the dietician and by urinary nitrogen measurements. Mean actual protein intake was 109% (56%–139%) RDA for the LP period and 220% (163%–319%) RDA for the HP period.C _in did not change in 14 children with GFR below (n=7) or within (n=7) the normal range.C _in was higher in the HP period than in the LP period (+32, 50, 63%) in 3 children who had a 50% (single kidneys) or a 25% (sclerosed glomeruli) nephron loss. Non-responding children had a GFR below 105 ml/min per 1.73 m². Nephron loss (70% sclerosed glomeruli) was estimated in only 1 child with no RFR. The results suggest that GFR measurement after prolonged dietary stimulation could help in evaluating the severity of nephron loss in children with normal or borderline GFR. The prognostic value of this test has to be confirmed by long-term follow-up.     

煤的热解研究III.煤中官能团与热解生成物

借助化学分析和ＦＴＩＲ光谱分析对我国煤化程度不同的１８ 种煤中官能团的研究表明：煤中官能团含量与煤化程度有关;煤中羧基、羟基及醚键等其他含氧官能团的含量与热解生成物ＣＯ２、Ｈ２Ｏ 和ＣＯ 的产率有关,脂肪—ＣＨ 的含量与甲烷和焦油的产率相关联,芳香—ＣＨ 的含量与热解半焦产率有关。煤的热解生成物主要是煤中官能团的断裂所致。

Factors associated with insomnia symptoms: A cross-sectional study during a Covid-19 fully restrictive lockdown

Insomnia is the most frequent sleep disorder and a public health concern that increased during the Covid 19 pandemic. Fully restrictive lockdowns during Covid are interesting periods to examine the impact of environmental and behavioural changes on the emergence of insomnia symptoms. In this cross-sectional study we aimed to (1) determine the main factors associated with insomnia symptoms during a Covid-19 fully restrictive lockdown examining the associated daily life alterations and (2) create a predictive model of insomnia symptoms. We used the data drawn from the “Covid-RythmE” study that reached volunteers from the general French population through an online survey during the last 2 weeks of the 2 month full lockdown. Associations with insomnia symptoms were tested and significant associations were entered in a Backward Stepwise Logistic Regression (BSLR) to assess the best combination to classify individuals with or without insomnia symptoms. From the 1624 participants, 50.64% suffered from mild to severe insomnia symptoms as assessed by the ISI. The best combination for explaining insomnia symptoms with 74.26% of accuracy included: age (OR = 1.15), females (OR = 1.26), smaller home sizes (OR = 0.77), environmental noises (OR = 1.59), anxiety symptoms (OR = 1.24), depressive symptoms (OR = 1.15), regularity of sleep–wake schedules (OR = 1.25), exposure to screen during the morning (OR = 1.13), and LED light during the evening (OR = 1.17). Thus, lifestyle schedule and exposure to natural synchronizers such as light, are primordial in considering in insomnia physiopathology, prevention and treatment, as well as the associated mental health status.     

Somatic symptoms,pain, catastrophizing and the association with disability among children with heritable connective tissue disorders

The aim of the present study was to investigate the nature and prevalence of nonspecific somatic symptoms, pain and catastrophizing in children with Heritable Connective Tissue Disorders (HCTD), and to determine their association with disability. This observational, multicenter study included 127 children, aged 4–18 years, with Marfan syndrome (MFS) (59%), Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) (8%), Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) (12%) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) (23%). The assessments included the Children's Somatization Inventory or parent proxy (CSI, PCSI), pain visual-analogue scale (VAS), SUPERKIDZ body diagram, Pain Catastrophizing Scale Child or parent proxy (PCS-C, PCS-P) and Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ-30). Data from children aged ≥8 years were compared to normative data. In children ≥ 8 years (n = 90), pain was present in 59%, with a median of 4 (IQR = 3–9) pain areas. Compared to normative data, the HCTD group reported significantly higher on the CSI (p ≤ 0.001, d = 0.85), VAS pain intensity (p ≤ 0.001, d = 1.22) and CHAQ-30 (p ≤ 0.001, d = 1.16) and lower on the PCS-C (p = 0.017, d = −0.82) and PCS-P (p ≤ 0.001, d = −0.49). The intensity of nonspecific somatic symptoms and pain explained 45% of the variance in disability (r² = 0.45 F(2,48) = 19.70, p ≤ 0.001). In children ≤ 7 years (n = 37), pain was present in 35% with a median of 5(IQR = 1–13) pain areas. The mean(SD) VAS scores for pain intensity was 1.5(2.9). Functional disability was moderately correlated to the number of pain areas (r = 0.56, p ≤ 0.001), intensity of nonspecific somatic symptoms (r = 0.63, p ≤ 0.001) and pain (r = 0.83, p ≤ 0.001). In conclusion, this study supports the need for comprehensive assessment of nonspecific somatic symptoms, pain, and disability in children with HCTD to allow tailored treatment.     

Triplications of chromosome 1p36.3, including the genes GABRD and SKI,are associated with a developmental disorder and a facial gestalt

Triplication of chromosomal region 1p36.3 is a rare genomic rearrangement. In this report, we delineate the phenotypic spectrum associated with 1p36.3 triplications. We describe four patients with microtriplications of variable size, but with a strong phenotypic overlap, and compare them to previously described patients with an isolated triplication or duplication of this region. The 1p36.3 triplication syndrome is associated with a distinct phenotype, characterized by global developmental delay, moderate intellectual disability, seizures, behavioral problems, and specific facial dysmorphic features, including ptosis, hypertelorism, and arched eyebrows. The de novo occurrence of these microtriplications demonstrates the reduced reproductive fitness associated with this genotype, in contrast to 1p36.3 duplications which are mostly inherited and can be associated with similar facial features but with a less severe developmental phenotype. The shared triplicated region encompasses four disease-related genes of which GABRD and SKI are most likely to contribute to the phenotype.
