人工髓核置换治疗腰椎间盘突出症初步报告

目的探讨人工髓核置换治疗腰椎间盘突出症临床应用的初步效果. 方法自2002年5月～2003年8月行单个人工髓核假体(PDN)置换术治疗腰椎间盘突出症26例. 结果所有病例均获随访,平均时间10.5(3～18)个月.临床疗效评价:优18例,良4例,尚可2例.1例发生椎间隙感染,保守治疗后好转;1例术后2月出现假体移位、症状复发,行再次手术更换假体后治愈. 结论人工髓核假体置换治疗腰椎间盘突出症能恢复椎间隙高度,操作简单,创伤小,恢复快,近期疗效满意,远期疗效仍需进一步观察.     

On the Use of Paramagnetic Beads and Ferrofluids to Assess and Eliminate the Leukocytic Contribution to Oxygen Radical Generation by Human Sperm Suspensions

PROBLEM: To develop a methodology to determine a) the leukocytic contribution to reactive oxygen species generation by human sperm suspensions and b) the therapeutic value of removing these cellular contaminants. METHODS: Leukocytes were removed with paramagnetic beads or colloidal ferrofluids coated with anti-CD45 antibody. The sperm suspensions were monitored for oxidant generation by chemiluminescence, leukocyte contamination by immunocytochemistry, and fertilizing potential using zona-free hamster oocytes. RESULTS: Percoll®-prepared human sperm suspensions exhibited a competence for PMA-induced reactive oxygen species generation which was significantly correlated with leukocyte contamination. However, the purified spermatozoa remaining after paramagnetic bead treatment, also demonstrated an intrinsic capacity for PMA-responsive reactive oxygen species generation and, freed from the oxidative stress created by the leukocytes, exhibited a significantly enhanced capacity for sperm-oocyte fusion. CONCLUSIONS: Although human spermatozoa can generate reactive oxygen species, sperm function is inhibited by the additional oxidative stress created by contaminating leukocytes. Removal of these cells with paramagnetic beads enhances fertilizing potential.     

核医学影像设备的发展与临床应用

γ相机和SPECT只能进行常规单光子显像，PET和双探头SPECT符合显像系统既能进行单光子显像，又能进行正电子符合显像，PET／CT系统的出现不仅提供高质量的衰减校正图像，保证了正电子显像校正数据的可靠性，而且能进行同机图像融合，提高了影像定位诊断的准确性。本文简要介绍了核医学影像设备发展历程，PET和PET／CT的原理以及在临床的应用。     

Three antidepressants (amitriptyline,dothiepin, fluoxetine), with and without alcohol,compared with placebo on tests of psychomotor ability related to car driving

Eight female volunteers received acute doses of amitriptyline 50 mg (AMI), dothiepin 50 mg (DOT), fluoxetine 40 mg (FLU) or placebo both with and without a ‘social’ dose of alcohol (ALC) equivalent to 0·5 g/kg body weight absolute alcohol. Performance on a variety of tests of psychomotor ability and cognitive function (critical flicker fusion, choice reaction time, tracking, Maddox Wing and simulated car steering) were performed at 1·5 and 4 hours following treatment. AMI and DOT both with and without ALC impaired performance on a range of tests at either or both 1·5 and 4 hours, although the effects of AMI and AMI + ALC were more widespread and severe than those found with either DOT or DOT + ALC. FLU and FLU + ALC showed no evidence of impairment on any test at either the 1·5 or the 4 hours assessments. The results suggest that there are differences between the experimental substances, at the doses used, in their intrinsic potential for impairing aspects of psychomotor performance and cognitive function.     

腰椎间盘膨出CT诊断标准的探讨

在经椎间盘中心平面的ＣＴ扫描图像上，对下腰段８２个正常椎间盘（男４９个，女３３个）及相应平面后方之硬胶囊、椎管的矢径、横径和面积进行了测量，并用指数形式来表示前、后二者间各项指标的比例关系。通过与４０个（男２７个、女１３个）膨出椎间盘的比较分析，发现硬膜囊面积／椎间盘面积、硬膜囊矢径／椎间盘矢径及椎管矢径／椎间盘矢径等三个指数在椎间盘膨出的诊断中最有价值。     

腰椎间盘突出症患者手术前后血浆内皮素及降钙素基因相关肽的变化

目的　探讨血浆内皮素 (ET)及降钙素基因相关肽 (CGRP)在腰椎间盘突出症(PLID)患者手术前后的变化及其意义。方法　采用放射免疫法检测 40例正常人及 40例患者手术前后的血浆CGRP及ET值。结果　 40例PLID患者术前血浆ET值明显高于正常对照组 ,术后ET值明显低于术前 (P <0 .0 1) ,但患者术后血浆ET值与正常对照组差异无显著性 (P >0 .0 5 )。40例PLID患者术前血浆CGRP值与正常对照组比较差异无显著性 (P >0 .0 5 ) ,40例PLID患者术后疼痛明显改善 ,且其血浆CGRP值明显高于术前及正常对照组 (P <0 .0 1)。正常对照组ET与CGRP无明显相关 ,病组术前ET与CGRP呈正相关 ,而术后两者无明显相关。结论　ET与CGRP共同参与了PLID的发病过程 ,为探讨PLID保守治疗方法提供了依据。

Radiologic long-term results after cervical vertebral interbody fusion with Polymethyl Methacrylat (PMMA)

Long-term results of cervical interbody fusion with PMMA were evaluated in a retrospective study. X-ray films of 83 patients were obtainable. Post-operative follow-up in this series was between 15 and 20 years. The results show that PMMA is engrafted after about 2 years. Stable vertebral interbody fusion is obtained in about 90% of cases. Development of malignoma was not observed. Resorptive bone alterations, which can be seen in about 2% of cases one to two years after operation are shown not to be progressive. This process heals and stable fusion develops.     

双减压椎间融合术治疗椎动脉型颈椎病（附24例报告）

从1987年2月至1991年10月对24例诊断明确的椎动脉型颈椎病患者进行了双减压椎间融合术(BIFO)。其方法是在病变侧行横突前弓及钩椎关节骨赘切除,并行病椎椎间盘切除植骨融合。术后经1.5～5.2年随访,除2例恢复较慢外余皆在不同时间内康复,近远期效果满意。认为BIFO术式是既能去除椎动脉受压主要因素,又能稳定椎体,是一种新的有效的手术治疗方法。
