新时期戏剧艺术探索的成就与困顿

八十年代初中期 ,中国戏剧积极拓展我国传统戏剧的时空观、写意性特征 ,大胆借鉴西方现代戏剧的荒诞化、意象性技巧 ,出现了探索创新、多元发展的崭新局面。其中对“三一律、一堵墙”戏剧观的突破 ,运用意识形象外显人物的内心世界 ,嫁接多种艺术手段将现实时空转化为艺术时空 ,是新时期戏剧艺术探索最突出的三项成就。而过分强调形式技巧 ,脱离观众欣赏习惯 ,致使演出市场萎缩 ,观众锐减 ,无疑是新时期戏剧艺术探索中面临的最大困顿。     

Inter- and intra-individual variability of non-invasive tear break-up time in Hong Kong Chinese

Non-invasive tear break-up time (NITBUT) has been proposed as a measure of tear film integrity which is superior to the more commonly used tear break-up time (TBUT), since it does not alter the volume or the physicochemical properties of the tear layer by the addition of fluorescein. We measured NITBUT by measuring the time taken for distortions or discontinuities to appear in the reflected image of a grid pattern which covered about 80 per cent of the corneal surface. NITBUT measures were made 100 times on seven Hong Kong Chinese subjects with up to 20 consecutive measures being made on a single day. We also measured NITBUT on one occasion on an unselected population of 52 Hong Kong Chinese subjects. NITBUT shows a skewed distribution in all subjects, with many shorter values and some extremely long values. There are statistically significant variations in NITBUT from day to day, and from subject to subject. The group of 52 subjects also had a skewed NITBUT distribution with many short values and some very long values. The arithmetic mean does not adequately represent NITBUT data, either for individual subjects or for this group of subjects. As many as five to eight measures may be necessary to gain a stable estimate of the NITBUT and stability of the measure is improved if extreme values are omitted. We recommend the use of nonparametric statistics to compare NITBUT values from day to day in or between subjects.     

1996-2000年某医院五种恶性肿瘤例均住院费用分析

恶性肿瘤是给群众带来严重健康损害的经济负担的疾病之一,已经列居我国城市 疾病死亡原因的第一位。本研究利用医院为基础的五种恶性肿瘤住院患者的费用数据,分析1996-2000年五种恶性肿瘤患者例均住院费用的变化趋势,比较自费患者和公费患者之间的例均费用差异。根据恶性肿瘤费用水平高、增长幅度快,且公费患者费用明显高于自费患者的情况,提出在医疗保障制度改革的社会环境下,医院必须加强病种费用管理,主动控制医疗费用水平。     

Effects of exposure to air pollution on blood coagulation

BACKGROUND: Consistent evidence has indicated that air pollution increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The underlying mechanisms linking air pollutants to increased cardiovascular risk are unclear. OBJECTIVES: We investigated the association between the pollution levels and changes in such global coagulation tests as the prothrombin time (PT) and the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) in 1218 normal subjects from the Lombardia Region, Italy. Plasma fibrinogen and naturally occurring anticoagulant proteins were also evaluated. METHODS: Hourly concentrations of particulate (PM10) and gaseous pollutants (CO, NO2, SO2, and O3) were obtained from 53 monitoring sites covering the study area. Generalized additive models were applied to compute standardized regression coefficients controlled for age, gender, body mass index, smoking, alcohol, hormone use, temperature, day of the year, and long-term trends. RESULTS: The PT became shorter with higher ambient air concentrations at the time of the study of PM10 (coefficient = -0.06; P < 0.05), CO (coefficient = -0.11; P < 0.001) and NO2 (coefficient =-0.06; P < 0.05). In the 30 days before blood sampling, the PT was also negatively associated with the average PM(10) (coefficient = -0.08; P < 0.05) and NO2 (coefficient = -0.08; P < 0.05). No association was found between the APTT and air pollutant levels. In addition, no consistent relations with air pollution were found for fibrinogen, antithrombin, protein C and protein S. CONCLUSIONS: This investigation shows that air pollution is associated with changes in the global coagulation function, suggesting a tendency towards hypercoagulability after short-term exposure to air pollution. Whether these changes contribute to trigger cardiovascular events remains to be established.     

非霍奇金淋巴瘤85例临床及预后分析

目的：分析多种因素对非霍奇金淋巴瘤(NHL)预后的影响。方法：通过SABC法进行免疫分型，采用Kaplan—Meier法分析患者治疗后的生存期，采用Cox比例风险模型分析影响预后的因素。结果：B细胞来源-NHL(B-NHL)发病率为63．3％。T细胞来源-NHL(T—NHL)为36．7％；低度恶性占17．6％，中、高度恶性占74．1％。1、2、3、5年生存率：低度恶性患者为92．1％、84．5％、65．1％、45．1％；中、高度恶性患者为84．9％、67．5％、47．6％、28．4％。I、Ⅱ期患者为98．8％、91.5％、87．5％、70．3％；Ⅲ期、Ⅳ期患者为62．1％、55．5％、40．1％、23．8％。T—NHL为70．8％、53．5％、47．7％、30．2％；B-NHL为82．1％、70．5％、61．1％、50．1％。结论：年龄、乳酸脱氢酶水平、恶性程度、临床分期、免疫分型、身体状况评分(PS)是影响NHL预后的重要因素。     

小儿医院感染率与医院感染平均暴露日实际意义的探讨

目的　提出医院感染平均暴露日的概念 ,并探讨其应用价值。方法　对小儿医院感染进行回顾性分析。结果　小儿医院感染率与住院天数成正相关 ,缩短住院天数主要通过减少暴露时间影响医院感染率 :医院感染率与医院感染天数无明显相关性 ,分组显示 ,住院时间长的医院感染天数较长 :小儿医院感染率明显低于同期成人 ,小儿医院感染平均暴露日短于成人。结论　医院感染平均暴露日是反映医院感染控制状况较好的指标之一 ,缩短平均住院日不宜作为提高医院感染控制质量的主要方法。     

CO2 laser in cancer surgery of the breast: a comparative clinical study

Review of the literature reveals little to no data regarding the use of the CO2 laser as a surgical modality in the local treatment of breast cancer. This study was undertaken to determine if the CO2 laser is a surgical improvement over the scalpel, influencing patient care during the surgical and postsurgical period. In the author's series, a total of 209 procedures were performed. Within this group, 105 cases were performed with CO2 laser and 104 cases performed with the scalpel. Biopsies were always performed as a separate procedure prior to definitive surgery. This study was not designed to compare cure rates, the medical follow-up period being 1 year. The results of this study demonstrate a significant improvement in patients' postoperative care, surgical technique, and hospital cost-effectiveness.     

Postgraduate qualifications of British doctors

Among British-qualified doctors of 1974 and 1977, about 80% held postgraduate qualifications of some kind. The commonest qualifications were DRCOG, MRCP and MRCOG. There were considerable differences between medical schools in the numbers of qualifiers taking various examinations. Apart from the MRC Psych, DRCOG and Family Planning Certificate, qualifications were more commonly held by men than women. Tables show the type of work being done 9-13 years after leaving medical school by holders of various postgraduate qualifications; e.g. 60% of MRCP holders were working in medicine or a medical specialty and 84% of FRCS holders in general surgery or a surgical specialty. Discussion deals with the plurality, specificity, variability, perceived necessity, sufficiency, international utility and career significance of British postgraduate qualifications.
