Newer aspects of antiarrhythmic drug development: Introduction

Although cardiac arrhythmias remain a serious clinical problem in many patients with heart disease, the exact role of antiarrhythmic drug therapy is currently under intense evaluation. Within the last several years it has become clear that there are significant risks as well as potential benefits associated with existing agents. Ongoing studies in large patient populations should help determine the benefit/risk ratio of traditional therapy. Regardless of the outcome of these trials, current electrophysiological dogma will have to be re-evaluated and newer concepts evolve for drug development to make further progress. The goal of this symposium is to exchange information among basic and clinical investigators so as to facilitate the emergence of novel electrophysiological concepts that will form the basis for future generations of antiarrhythmic drugs.     

生长激素治疗对GHD患儿免疫功能的影响

对生长激素缺乏症（GHD）患儿生长激素（GH）治疗前后的免疫功能改变进行了观察。结果显示：（1）GHD患儿NK细胞活性明显降低，经GH治疗3个月后恢复到正常水平；（2）GHD患儿治疗前IL－1a和IL－2活性偏低，治疗后两者有逐渐增高的趋势；（3）治疗前后CD细胞亚群、sIL－2R和LPS诱生的TNFa含量均无明显变化。认为GH缺乏症患儿存在一定的免疫功能缺陷，而GH有调节其免疫功能的作用。     

Graves病患者血甲状旁腺激素、钙、磷、碱性磷酸酶基础值的观察

对照观察了28例Graves病患者及29名正常人血浆甲状旁腺激素、(PTH)血钙、血磷、碱性磷酸酶的基础值。Graves病组血碱性磷酸酶明显高于对照组,而PTH、钙、磷无显著差异。Graves病组血钙>2.75mmol/L者占21%,与某些文献大致相符。正常组血钙与PTH基础值间呈负相关,而Graves病组该两值间无相关,提示Graves病时血钙浓度的平衡调节中PTH以外的因素如甲状腺激素等可能对其影响较大。     

无张力疝修补术后顽固性疼痛原因和对策

目的 探讨无张力疝修补术后的顽固性疼痛病因及预防治疗。方法 将同期无张力疝修补术与传统的腹股沟疝修补方法进行比较。结果 无张力疝修补术后的顽固性疼痛率为9．02％(12／133)，传统的腹股沟疝修补方法疼痛率为8．61％(18／209)。无张力疝修补与传统的腹股沟疝修补相比，术后顽固性疼痛的发生率差异无显著性(P＞0．05)。结论 无张力疝修补并不一定减少传统的腹股沟疝修补术后顽固性疼痛，手术规范操作是预防的关键，治疗应先保守治疗，无效再考虑手术治疗。     

血清保存方法对促甲状腺激素结果的影响观察

目的 :观察血清保存方法对促甲状腺激素 (TSH)结果的影响。方法 :将甲状腺功能正常、异常患者共 10份血清 ,采用不同血清量、不同条件分组保存后测定 TSH。结果 :保存方法对 TSH结果有一定的影响。结论 :用于 TSH血清的保存量要多、要密封管口、低温保存。     

Postmenopausal HRT is not independent risk factor for dural sinus thrombosis

While a dural sinus thrombosis (DST), is a well-known consequence of the use of oral contraceptives, the role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in DST was not previously evaluated. We report two postmenopausal women, presenting with DST under HRT. Antiphospholipid antibodies in one case and borderline protein S deficiency in another were diagnosed. Only five cases of DST under HRT were previously reported and in two of them additional prothrombotic risk factors were found. According to these and previous cases, HRT is not an independent risk factor for DST.     

Auer rod positive dysmyelopoietic syndrome

Twenty-five patients with refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB) were studied. Five of these patients showed Auer rods in their myeloblasts, but met other criteria for RAEB. Median survival of the Auer rod-positive group was 14 months (range 2–27) from diagnosis with survival of 7 months after Auer rods were first observed. Median survival for the Auer rod-negative group was 12 months. Two patients developed overt acute leukemia, both from the Auer rod-negative group. The clinical course of Auer rod-positive RAEB, like that of Auer rod-negative RAEB, was one of progressive bone marrow failure complicated by infection, serious bleeding and the development of absolute transfusion requirement. These findings suggest that Auer rod-positive RAEB is a morphologic variant dysmyelopoietic syndrome that may pursue a similar clinical course to Auer rod-negative disease. Formulation of a separate treatment approach for those RAEB patients who possess Auer rods would appear ill advised.     

青滕碱对豚鼠心肌动作电位和收缩力的影响

青藤碱2.7μmol/L以上,呈浓度依赖性地降低豚鼠乳头肌收缩力,延长动作电位时程和有效不应期。小剂量时,青藤碱能降低动作电位0相上升最大速率;较大剂量时,动作电位幅度也降低。用TTX处理豚鼠乳头肌所致的慢反应电位,青藤碱能够抑制。此外,青藤碱能对抗乙酰胆碱缩短豚鼠左房肌动作电位时程的作用。结果提示:青藤碱对Na⁺,Ca²⁺和K⁺的跨膜转运均有抑制作用。     

肠外营养与生长激素联合应用对外科大手术术后患者蛋白代谢的影响

目的观察肠外营养与生长激素联合应用对大手术术后患者蛋白代谢的影响。方法将拟实施外科大手术(四类以上手术)熏APACHE-Ⅱ评分>7分的患者30例,入院后随机分为3组熏A组穴n=10雪押肠外营养治疗与生长激素穴金磊赛增雪联合治疗组(PN+GH)鸦B组穴n=10雪押肠外营养治疗组(PN)鸦C组穴n=10雪押正常补液组。其中A组在术后第2天开始给予生长激素皮下肌注,连续7d。结果术后8d内,B、C组患者均处于负氮平衡状态,血清白蛋白与胰岛素样生长因子-Ⅰ(IGF-Ⅰ)维持较低水平,A组在术后5d机体开始恢复氮平衡,血清白蛋白与IGF-Ⅰ水平逐渐上升,A组与B、C组比较差异有显著性(P<0.05)。结论较大的外科手术打击后,单纯给予常规的肠外营养要素不能被机体有效的利用,GH能够提高机体对肠外营养要素的利用率,促进机体蛋白合成。
