大豆总皂甙对培养心肌细胞自发性搏动与动作电位的影响

培养Wistar大鼠乳鼠的心室肌细胞,向培养基中分别加入浓度为1.56μg/ml至50μg/ml的大豆皂甙,可使心肌细胞群落的自发性搏动呈剂量依赖性抑制。洗脱大豆皂甙或向培养基中再加入10μg/ml肾上腺素均能使自发性搏动恢复。向培养基中加入大豆皂甙5μg/ml使心肌细胞动作电位的波幅、波宽、超射、最大舒张电位、阈电位、最大除极速度等各电参数立即减小。Ca~(2+)80μg/ml能使动作电位的抑制逆转。上述结果表明大豆皂甙对培养的鼠心肌细胞具有钙通道阻滞用。     

PLASMA PHOSPHOLIPASE A2 ACTIVITY IN CLINICAL ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

1. Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) cleaves phospholipids to produce a lyso-phospholipid and free fatty acid and, in view of the biological activity of the products, PLA2 may play a role in many disease states. Lyso-phospholipids and free arachidonic acid increase in ischaemic myocardium, indicating that ischaemia activates the enzyme. 2. Plasma PLA2 activity was measured in patients with acute myocardial infarction, based on the release of labelled arachidonic acid from Escherichia coli cell membrane. Fourteen males (peak serum creatine phosphokinase (CK) above twice upper normal) were studied on day 1 (within 6 h of chest pain onset), days 2-4, and days 6-9. Normal age matched males (n = 13) were also studied. 3. Plasma PLA2 in patients with uncomplicated myocardial infarction (n = 12) was, initially, 1.14 +/- 0.10 (s.e.m.) nmol/min per mL plasma, similar to that in the normal group (1.52 +/- 0.14). On days 2-4, PLA2 activity increased to 1.94 +/- 0.18 (P less than 0.001) and this activity was correlated with the earlier peak CK level (P less than 0.02). On days 6-9, PLA2 activity was 1.49 +/- 0.13 while in two patients who developed complications and underwent open-heart surgery between the last two measurements, there were further increases to 4.22 and 4.04 nmol/min per mL. 4. The increase in plasma PLA2 in uncomplicated myocardial infarction is likely to be due to release from the damaged myocardium; whether it contributes to pathophysiology is uncertain.     

老年急性心肌梗塞37例临床分析

对３７例老年急性心肌梗塞与５０例老年前期急性心肌梗塞病人进行临床对比分析．结果显示：部分老年急性心肌梗塞病人发病不典型，并发症多，死亡率高，这可能与并发室颤、房室或束支传导阻滞、心衰等有关．     

过敏性紫癜的心肌损害

目的观察儿童过敏性紫癜并心肌损害的发生率及临床特点。方法回顾性分析93例过敏性紫癜患儿并心肌损害的临床资料，对其发生率、临床表现及其他系统损害的关系和预后进行分析。结果497例过敏性紫癜患者中有93例（18．71％）有心肌受损，主要表现为心肌酶学异常和（或）心电图异常。所有病例应用肾上腺皮质激素治疗后均治愈。结论过敏性紫癜合并心肌损害是临床较常见的表现，早期识别并及时应用激素治疗及对症处理可避免严重并发症的发生，提高治疗效果。     

Graduate Education in the Field of Substance Abuse

Abstract: Twenty-six part-time students from a variety of professional backgrounds are enrolled in the first year of a Graduate Diploma in Social Science (Drug Dependence) at the Phillip Institute of Technology in Victoria. The course is conducted under the auspices of the School of Social Work and commenced in 1984. It is argued that the graduates from this unique course could play a key role in providing personnel to fill positions in the areas of clinical work, staff development, drug education, programme development and management and research.     

Prognostic value of supine scintigraphic heart function and simultaneous conventional exercise response in patients after myocardial infarction

A total of 240 survivors of one or more myocardial infarctions were consecutively admitted to perform supine exercise radionuclide ventriculography. Within 3 years after the test, 22 died; this group was compared to an age-matched control group of 22 survivors for left and right ventricular function during rest, exercise, and simultaneously assessed exercise performance as well as ECG variables. Evaluation of 3-year survival by linear discriminant analysis revealed an accuracy of 82% for discriminant models using ECG and exercise performance variables. Implementation of resting left ventricular ejection fraction and change of right ventricular ejection fraction during exercise, as well as scintigraphic presence or absence of dyskinesia, improved the accuracy of the model to 91% of correctly classified patients.     

急性心肌梗塞静脉溶栓治疗冠脉再通者早期ST段再抬高的临床意义

急性心肌梗塞早期静脉溶栓治疗后，一些溶栓再通患者中，可见早期降低的ＳＴ段再度出现抬高现象。本文回顾溶栓成功者８１例，其中早期出现ＳＴ段再度抬高者２１例（占３５％），与ＳＴ段非再度抬高者相比，ＣＰＫ、ＣＰＫ－ＭＢ峰值，心功能及院内死亡率等无显著差异。笔者认为，此现象也为再通的标志之一。因此，急性心肌梗塞溶栓治疗的早期连续监测心电图对确认再通与否非常重要     

内皮素与P-选择素在冠心病中的意义

目的：研究内皮素（ET－1）、P－选择素、肌钙蛋白I（CTn1)在急性心肌梗死（AMI）和不稳定性心绞痛（UA）中的意义，方法：用放射免疫法测ET－1，流式细胞术测定P－选择素，Access化学发光测CTn1，共检测23例AMI患、21例UA患及28例健康对照。结果：AMI组的ET－1、P－选择素、CTn1值均显高于对照组（P＜0．05－0．005）；UA组的ET－1、P－选择素显高于对照组（P＜0．05）；UA组的CTn1与对照组差异无显性（P＞0．05）；UA组的P－选择素、CTn1显低于AMI组（P＜0．05）。多元回归分析发现P－选择与CTn1相关，相关系数r=0.404，P＜0．01。结论：ET－1、P－选择素是检测血栓前状态的敏感指标。
