《野叟曝言》创作人格批判

《野叟曝言》的“文格”与夏敬渠的创作人格有一致性，但存在明显的、不可忽视的矛盾，这种矛盾对《野叟曝言》的文本价值产生了极复杂的影响。导致夏敬渠“人格”与《野叟曝言》“文格”矛盾的原因是多方面的，研究视角不能简单化、绝对化。     

Study of the measurement of defense style using Bond's Defense Style Questionnaire

Two hundred and seventy healthy university students were surveyed in December 1995 using Bond's Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ) to measure the subjects' defense mechanisms. At the same time, a survey using Byrne's R-S Scale (Repression–Sensitization Scale) of the MMPI (Minnesota multiphasic personality inventory) and five psychiatric symptom indexes (anxiety, sense of inadequacy, sensitivity, depression and impulsive anger) selected from the CMI (Cornell Medical Index-Health Questionnaire) was conducted. Three factors were extracted from the DSQ through factor analysis: immature defenses, neurotic defenses, and mature defenses. The results of analysis of variance revealed the following: (i) for anxiety and anxiety related symptoms, both immature defenses and neurotic defenses indicated principal effect; (ii) for impulsive anger and depression, immature defenses presented principal effect; and (iii) for sensitivity and impulsive anger, interaction between a mature defense style and neurotic defense style was noted. The relationship between defense styles and psychiatric symptoms in healthy people is studied in this paper.     

Enhancement of blood-brain barrier permeability to sodium fluorescein by stimulation of µ opioid receptors in mice

Summary The effects of opioids on the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) were examined in mice with sodium fluorescein as an indicator of the permeability. The brain was perfused with saline 30 min after injection of sodium fluorescein (40 mg/kg, i. v.) and examined by fluorometry. Morphine hydrochloride (0.3–10 mg/kg, s. c.) markedly increased the brain level of sodium fluorescein dose-dependently without influencing the plasma level, when administered 20 min before sodium fluorescein injection. Intracerebroventricularly (i. c. v.) injected morphine hydrochloride (0.5 and 1.0 Erg) increased the brain sodium fluorescein level. Buprenorphine (0.1 and 0.5 mg/kg, s. c.) was also effective. However, pentazocine, ethylketazocine, U-50488H and SKF-10047 had no significant influence. The i.c.v. administration of [D-Ala², McPhe⁴, Gly(ol)⁵]enkephalin (0.1 g) and [D-Ala², D-Leu⁵]enkephalin (0.5 g) but not of [D-Thr², Leu⁵]enkephalin-Thr increased the brain level of sodium fluorescein significantly. A small dose of naloxone (i. p.) significantly inhibited the effects of morphine, buprenorphine, [D-Ala², McPhe⁴, Gly(ol)⁵]enkephalin and [D-Ala³, D-Leu⁵]enkephalin. ICI-174864 co-administered i. c. v. with [D-Ala², D-Leu⁵]enkephalin was ineffective in antagonizing the effect of the latter. These findings suggest that the stimulation of µ opioid receptors results in an increase in BBB permeability to sodium fluorescein. Send offprint requests to K. Saeki     

In the hippocampus in vivo,nitric oxide does not appear to function as an endogenous antiepileptic agent

Using a reverberatory epilepiform discharge of hippocampal-parahippocampal circuits termed maximal dentate activation, this study investigated whether the local release of nitric oxide within these circuits functions as an antiepileptic agent. Two nitric oxide synthase inhibitors (l-nitro-arginine methyl ester and 7-nitro-indazole) and a guanylate cyclase inhibitor (methylene blue) were tested, and none had a significant effect on the time to onset or duration of maximal dentate activation. A membrane-permeable analogue of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), 8-bromo-cGMP, caused an increase in the time to onset and a decrease in the duration of maximal dentate activation. The number of neurons expressing NADPH diaphorase activity (a marker for nitric oxide synthase) was also examined after repeated elicitation of maximal dentate activation. After 18 seizures there was a significant, but transient, decrease in the number of hilar/subgranular neurons that were NADPH diaphorase-positive. The decrease was only seen at 1 h after the last seizure. There was no induction of NADPH diaphorase activity. These results are not consistent with the hypothesis that, in hippocampal-parahippocampal circuits in vivo, nitric oxide is released in response to neuronal activity and then acts to terminate the neuronal activity.     

Play interview therapy: Its history,theory and practice — A fifty year retrospective account

The method of the play interview offers the fearful child an opportunity to express himself by speaking for a series of dolls representing siblings, parents, teachers or himself. It is not the child who is aggressive, fearful, jealous or desires the parent's affection, but the doll. In this manner, the child learns to make connections between his fears and his unacceptable bad thoughts, feelings or wishes. Improvement occurs after several play interviews.This article is dedicated to Dr. Leo Kanner (1894–1981), former Director of the Children's Psychiatric Service of the Johns Hopkins HospitalLecture given to the Division of Child Psychiatry, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 600 North Wolfe Street, Baltimore, Md, 21205, on September 6, 1988.     

Fresh gas flow in the Bain circuit during laparoscopy

Twenty-two women were studied during laparoscopy with abdominal insufflation of carbon dioxide. A bain anaesthetic breathing circuit was used with a fresh gas flow (VFG) of 110 ml.min-1.kg-1, and controlled ventilation was applied with a minute ventilation (VE) of 175 ml.min-1.kg-1. Arterial blood gases were analysed at the end of the operation. Nineteen of the women (86 per cent) were found to have a PaCO2 within the range for normocapnia (i.e., 4.7-5.9 kPa (35-45 mmHg), two were hypocapnic with a PaCO2 of 4.4 and 4.5 kPa (33 and 34 mmHg) respectively and one was found to have a PaCO2 of 6.2 kPa (46.5 mmHg). It was concluded that the carbon dioxide absorbed from the abdomen during laparoscopy demands fresh gas flows that are higher than normally used in the Bain circuit if a PaCO2 within the normal range is to be obtained. A simultaneous increase in VFG and VE of about 45 per cent is sufficient to achieve normocapnia.     

An armoured endotracheal tube obstruction in a child

The case of a child whose tracheal tube became obstructed intraoperatively 30 minutes after intubation is reported. It appears that this obstruction was related to the development of bubbles within the walls which expanded upon exposure to nitrous oxide and diffusion of that gas into the bubbles. The authors want to point out the risk of gas diffusion into the walls of the tube and the possibility that repeated sterilization may enhance the development of bubbles. Les auteurs rapportent l’observation d’un enfant de sept mois dont la sonde tracheale s’est obstruée 30 minutes après l’intubation. Cette obstruction était due à l’expansion de bulles incluses dans la paroi du tube après exposition au N₂O et diffusion de celui-ci à l’interieur des bulles. Ils accusent également la stérilisation répétée de la sonde armée (contre l’avis du constructeur) d’avoir favorisé le développement de ces inclusions bulleuses.     

Atracurium and vecuronium interaction with gentamicin and tobramycin

Drug interactions between the aminoglycosides (tobramycin and gentamicin) and atracurium and vecuronium were studied prospectively in 44 patients. Twenty-two patients had therapeutic serum levels of tobramycin or gentamicin and 22 served as controls. Onset time, clinical duration, and time to spontaneous recovery of T4/T1 ratio of 0.70 after atracurium or vecuronium injection were measured. No statistically significant differences were found in onset time, but clinical duration and time to recovery were significantly longer in patients receiving tobramycin or gentamicin and paralyzed with vecuronium than for controls (P less than 0.01 for clinical duration and P less than 0.0005 for recovery). The neuromuscular block produced by atracurium was not significantly influenced by the presence of therapeutic serum levels of tobramycin or gentamicin. We conclude that for patients treated with these antibiotics, atracurium may present some advantages over vecuronium when a prolonged block is not desired.     

Surgery in Jehovah’s Witnesses

This is a retrospective study of the outcome of surgical procedures in patients who were Jehovah's Witnesses. Over a 75-month period, 58 Jehovah's Witness patients had 78 surgical procedures at the Vancouver General Hospital. Three patients had preexisting anaemia of less than 100 g.L-1 haemoglobin. Postoperative haemoglobin concentration decreased below 50 g.L-1 in three patients. One patient had a postoperative haemoglobin of 34 g.L-1 (haematocrit 10.1 per cent) and survived. One patient died from uncontrollable postoperative haemorrhage. Perioperative morbidity was not uncommon, including significant hypotension (eight cases), cardiac arrhythmias (six), myocardial ischaemia (three), excessive bleeding (four), postoperative nausea or syncope (four), and wound or urinary tract infection (four).     

Computerized axial tomo-epidurographic and radiographic documentation of unilateral epidural analgesia

A 23-year-old primigravid patient who received epidural analgesia for pain of labour presented with persistent, apparently irremediable, unilateral analgesia. Computerized axial tomo-epidurography demonstrated absence of circumferential spread due to lateral placement of the catheter. Transforaminal escape of contrast medium into the paravertebral area had occurred and anterior and posterior midline partitioning of the epidural space was obvious. All the usual measures to promote contralateral analgesia, except re-insertion of the catheter, had been tried without success.
