急性心肌梗塞猝死的诱因及抢救(附13例报告)

本文报告了急性心肌梗塞猝死13例。分析猝死的诱因主要有血清钾浓度降低,严重心律失常,包括室内传导阻滞、室性并行心律、室性早搏等。近年来急性心肌梗塞的发病率日趋增高,心源性猝死也随之增多,有必要对猝死的诱因进行探讨,以采取有效的抢救措施。     

沙土鼠短暂性脑缺血后海马损伤的形态学特征

本实验通过结扎沙土鼠双侧颈总动脉20分钟,再灌流7天内,动态观察背侧海马组织的形态学变化。光镜观察表明:海马各区对缺血的反应性不同,其中以 CA_1区锥体细胞对缺血最为敏感,并且 CA_1区神经元的损伤是迟发性的,再灌流4天后才出现大量神经元的坏死、消失,即“迟发性神经元死亡”(NDN)。电镜下发现:缺血再灌流早期(1～2天),CA_1区神经细胞质内有大量粗面内质网增多。本实验结果表明:短暂性脑缺血所致的海马损伤与脑组织其他区域神经元损伤不同。     

Lethal Congenital Muscular Dystrophy with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita: Three New Cases and Review of the Literature

Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) comprises a heterogeneous group of muscle disorders. We report on two stillborn sibs with early lethal CMD and a prematurely born boy who died within minutes after birth. The pregnancies were complicated by polyhydramnios. All presented with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, severe muscle wasting, lung hypoplasia, and hydrops. The muscle biopsies showed fibrosis, variation in fiber size, and extensive fat replacement compatible with muscular dystrophy. Fatal CMD seems to be distinct from CMD with survival after birth and is probably autosomal recessively inherited.     

Paediatric cardiac arrest and resuscitation provided by physician-staffed emergency care units

Background: Most paediatric cardiac arrest studies have been conducted in the USA, where paramedics provide prehospital emergency care. We wanted to study the outcome of paediatric cardiac arrest patients in an emergency medical system which is based on physician staffed emergency care units.
Methods: We analysed retrospectively the files of 100 prehospital cardiac arrest patients from Southern Finland during a 10-year study period. The patients were less than 16 years of age.
Results: Fifty patients were declared dead on the scene (DOS) without attempted resuscitation, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was initiated in 50 patients. The sudden infant death syndrome was the most common cause of arrest in the DOS patients (68%) as well as in those receiving CPR (36%). Asystole was the initial cardiac rhythm in 70% of the patients in whom CPR was attempted. Resuscitation was successful in 13 patients, 8 of whom were ultimately discharged. Six of the patients survived with mild or no disability and 4 of them had near-drowning aetiology. In multivariate analysis, the short duration of CPR (≤15 min) was the only factor significantly associated with better survival.
Conclusions: Although prehospital care was provided by physicians, the overall rate of survival was found to be equally poor as reported from systems with paramedics. The only major difference between physician- and paramedic-staffed emergency care units is the ability of physicians to refrain from resuscitation already on the scene when prognosis is poor.     

Early separation and suicidal behaviour in the parental homes of 40 consecutive suicide attempters

Forty suicide-attempt patients who were consecutively admitted to an intensive-care unit, their significant others and treatment personnel were investigated by semistructured interviews. The patients were divided into neurosis (n = 14), abuse (n = 19) and psychosis (n = 7) groups. Twenty-one of the patients (52%) had lost contact with one or both parents before the age of 18, in 25% of cases owing to death and in 27% because of the parents' divorce or separation. Parents and/or siblings of 19 patients (47%) had shown suicidal behaviour in the form of attempted suicide and/or suicide. Differences between the groups were not significant. Alcohol abuse in the parental home was overrepresented in the abuse group compared with the other groups. The role of identification with the dead and suicidal parent in prompting suicidal actions in adulthood is discussed, as well as that of the impeded evolution of stable external object relations owing to parental losses.     

Prostaglandins and CGRP release from cardiac sensory nerves

Summary (1) The possible influence of Prostaglandins (PG) E₁ and I₂ as well as ischaemia, ouabain and bradykinin on the outflow of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)- and neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivity (LI) from the guinea-pig heart was studied in vitro. (2) Exposure to PGE₁ (10^–5 M), but not PGI₂ (10^–5 M), induced an increased outflow, suggesting release of CGRP-LI. PGE₁ simultaneously increased the contractile force and heart rate while no effects were observed on perfusate volume or outflow of NPY-LI. PGI₂ had no effect on contractile parameters or coronary flow. In separate experiments on capsaicin-pretreated animals, the stimulatory effects of PGE₁ on heart rate and contractile force remained unchanged while no increased CGRP-LI outflow was detectable. (3) Ouabain, bradykinin and reperfusion after total stop-flow ischaemia was associated with an indomethacin-resistant increase in perfusate levels of CGRP-LI but not of NPY-LI. While ouabain markedly increased the contractile force, exposure to bradykinin or ischaemia did not induce any clear-cut changes in contractile force or heart rate. (4) Capsaicin-exposure evoked a markedly increased outflow of CGRP-LI but not of NPY-LI in combination with an increase in heart rate and a decrease in contractile force. Repeated administration of capsaicin induced tachyphylaxis. The stimulatory effects of capsaicin on CGRP-LI outflow and heart rate, but not the negative inotropic effect, did not occur in capsaicin-pretreated animals. (5) It is concluded that PGE₁, but not PGI₂, can activate cardiac capsaicin-sensitive fibres as revealed by increased outflow of CGRP-LI. The cardiostimulatory effects induced by PGE₁ are not related to CGRP release, however. A possible prostaglandin link in the CGRP-LI released by ouabain, bradykinin or ischaemia seems unlikely.

病毒性心肌炎心肌肌钙蛋白Ⅰ检测的临床意义

目的:对病毒性心肌炎患儿血中肌钙蛋白I(cTn I)含量进行检测,探讨与临床的关系。方法:采用放射免疫法对24例病毒性心肌炎患儿血中cTn I进行定量检测,同时检测血清心肌酶谱的改变情况,并就两种指标进行相关性探讨。结果:病毒性心肌炎患儿血中cTn I含量明显增高(4.5±2.2 )vs(2.3±0.3)ng/ml,P<0.01),并与CKMB,LDH_1的含量呈明显的正相关。结论:cTnl I是诊断病毒性心肌炎的敏感指标,可以反映出心肌受损的程度。
