改良气囊导尿管内固定方法的临床探讨

目的探讨改良气囊导尿管的内固定方法，减轻患者的不适感，增加尿管留置成功率。方法将150例需留置导尿管的患者随机分为A、B、C3组，常规导尿成功后，A组向气囊内注入生理盐水12ml；B组向气囊内注入空气12ml；C组向气囊内注入生理盐水和空气各6ml，于24h后采用自制问卷调查患者不舒适的程度，并在1周后统计置管的成功率。结果A组Ⅱ度以上不舒适38例，留置失败1例，失败率为2．0％；B组Ⅱ度以上不舒适5例，留置失败12例，失败率为24．0％；C组Ⅱ度以上不舒适5例，留置失败2例，失败率为3．9％。满意度B组与C组比较差异无统计学意义，A组与B组和C组比较差并均有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。失败率A组与C组比较差异无统计学意义（P=0．3864），B组与A组和C组比较差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。结论3组从舒适的角度和留置成功率全面比较C组的方法优于A、B两组，留置气囊导尿管时向气囊内注入生理盐水和空气各6ml是内固定最佳的方法，在临床上是可行的。     

持续闭式引流治疗下肢长骨骨折术后感染

感染是下肢长骨骨折钢板内固定术后常见并发症。由于内固定钢板螺钉的存在,常使感染迁延不愈,影响骨愈合。我科自1998年6月-2005年6月,采用加压接骨钢板内固定治疗下肢长骨骨折683例,其中34例术后发生感染,采用病灶清除,闭式滴注引流术,配合中药内服,感染得到控制,骨折愈合,取得满意的效果。1临床资料本组34例,男28例,女6例;年龄22~61岁,平均36岁。伤因:车祸伤16例,砸压伤7例,跌伤11例。开放性骨折23例,闭合性骨折11例;单纯股骨干骨折9例,股骨干合并同侧胫腓骨骨折2例,股骨干合并对侧胫腓骨骨折1例,单纯胫骨骨折5例,胫腓骨双骨折17例。病史2…     

腰大池持续外引流的临床观察与护理

笔者报道72例腰大池持续外引流病人的观察与护理。认为对于腰穿持续外引流的病人，观察脑脊液的性质、量，严密观察病情变化，加强引流管的护理及基础护理，增强营养，是提高治愈率，减少并发症的重要措施。     

改良式牙科吸唾管在人工气道中的应用

目的探讨改良式牙科吸唾管在人工气道护理中的应用效果。方法将2007年6月~2009年1月入住ICU建立人工气道的118例患者分为两组,两组患者进行比较。结果两组患者肺部感染、口腔感染、颜面部皮肤破损发生率及护理工作量实验组少于对照组,差异显著有统计学意义(p<0.01)。结论应用改良式牙科吸唾管持续吸引人工气道患者口腔分泌物,可降低肺部感染、口腔感染、颜面部皮肤破损的发生率,增加患者舒适度,减少护理工作量。     

Suppression of B cell differentiation by ligation of membrane-bound IgM

Using B cells from the transgenic mouse line B6-Sp6 and control littermates, stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) under novel culture conditions that provide for the response of all B cells, we show here that specific ligation of the surface IgM molecules always results in inhibition of terminal differentiation and immunoglobulin secretion by activated cells, regardless of the ligand. Thus, monoclonal antibodies to (a) the CH region of Ig (anti-μ. and anti-allotype), (b) the Cx region, (c) the V region (anti-idiotype) of surface IgM, as well as (d) multivalent antigen (2,4,6-trinitrophenyl-bovine serum albumin), all show similar effects and dose-response curves. IgD-negative transgenic B cells are equally sensitive to IgM ligation-dependent inhibition, as control (IgD-positive) B cells. The allotype specificity of this inhibition, assessed by using anti-u, allotype reagents to inhibit and assay the responses, suggests that B cells expressing transgenic or endogenous IgM in transgenic B6-Sp6 mice are largely independent populations. These observations establish that anti-IgM antibodies in conjunction with appropriate LPS stimulation, provide a universal model system for functional characterization of B cell responses.     

The effects of cysteamine on the upper gastrointestinal tract of children with cystinosis

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cysteamine on gastric acid output and serum gastrin levels in children with nephropathic cystinosis. We studied four children with nephropathic cystinosis receiving a dose of free base cysteamine of 14.35 mg/kg four times a day (range 12.30 – 18.80 mg/kg). Gastric acid was measured for the hour before and after administration of the medication. Serum gastrin levels were obtained at 0, 30, 60, and 90 min following the medication. Gastrointestinal anatomy was evaluated by endoscopy and biopsy. Following administration of the medication, all subjects showed an increase in gastric acid output. Mean acid output increased from 0.79 to 2.22 mEq/h. Mean gastric acid output adjusted for body weight increased from 0.03 to 0.09 mEq/kg per hour. Following administration of the medication, all subjects showed an increase in serum gastrin. The mean increase above the base value was 38.3 pg/dl. Two of the four subjects demonstrated visual and histological evidence of inflammation. Cysteamine has a marked effect on gastric acid production and serum gastrin, even at the dose used in children with nephropathic cystinosis. The clinical effect of this acid production is unknown but may be significant. Received February 13, 1996; received in revised form February 25, 1997; accepted February 27, 1997     

Chest wall implantation of lung cancer at the drainage tube site: Report of a case

We report herein the case of a 70-year-old man in whom a chest wall implantation of adenocarcinoma of the lung at the drainage tube site was found 4 months after a right lower lobectomy with mediastinal lymph node dissection had been performed for adenocarcinoma of the right lower lobe. The lesion was successfully treated by tumor extirpation. We believe that tumor seeding to the chest wall occurred at the time of thoracotomy. To prevent such tumor seeding, the pleural cavity should be washed out routinely with a massive volume of physiological saline solution prior to closure of the chest wall.     

Defective Acidification in Human Breast Tumor Cells and Implications for Chemotherapy

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a significant problem in the treatment of cancer. Chemotherapeutic drugs distribute through the cyto- and nucleoplasm of drug-sensitive cells but are excluded from the nucleus in drug-resistant cells, concentrating in cytoplasmic organelles. Weak base chemotherapeutic drugs (e.g., anthracyclines and vinca alkaloids) should concentrate in acidic organelles. This report presents a quantification of the pH for identified compartments of the MCF-7 human breast tumor cell line and demonstrates that (a) the chemotherapeutic Adriamycin concentrates in acidified organelles of drug-resistant but not drug-sensitive cells; (b) the lysosomes and recycling endosomes are not acidified in drug-sensitive cells; (c) the cytosol of drug-sensitive cells is 0.4 pH units more acidic than the cytosol of resistant cells; and (d) disrupting the acidification of the organelles of resistant cells with monensin, bafilomycin A1, or concanamycin A is sufficient to change the Adriamycin distribution to that found in drug-sensitive cells, rendering the cell vulnerable once again to chemotherapy. These results suggest that acidification of organelles is causally related to drug resistance and is consistent with the hypothesis that sequestration of drugs in acidic organelles and subsequent extrusion from the cell through the secretory pathways contribute to chemotherapeutic resistance.
