Treatment of herniated lumbar disc by percutaneous laser disc decompression combined with synchronous suction technique through syringe

Objective： To compare the outcomes of percutaneous laser disc decompression （PLDD） and PLDD with synchronous suction through syringe in the patients with herniated lumbar disc（HLD）. Methods： Forty-two patients with HLD on MRI and those who did not respond to conservative treatment for 6 weeks were randomly divided into group A and group B. In group A, the patients were treated with PLDD and those in group B with PLDD and synchronous suction through syringe. GaAIAS diode laser at 810 nm was used for the ablation in both groups. The treatment effect was evaluated by modified MacNab＇s criteria on the 7^th, 30^th and 90^th day. Results： Evaluated by modified MacNab＇s criteria, the percentages of the excellent and good cases in total patients treated for group B and A were 80.95% and 57.14% on the 7^th follow-up day, 85.71% and 66.67% on the 30^th follow-up day, and 95.24% and 71.43% on the 90^th follow-up day, respectively. Conclusion： Synchronous suction technique through syringe during PLDD improves the overall outcome in the treatment of herniated lumbar disc.     

急性心肌梗死猝死者心肌细胞hsf1和HSP70改变的意义

目的探讨急性心肌梗死猝死者梗死区心肌细胞内热休克转录因子1(hsf1)和热休克蛋白70(HSP70)改变的临床意义。方法分别用RT-PCR和免疫组化法检测(IHC)18例急性心肌梗死猝死者(研究组)和15例心脏正常因车祸快速死亡者(对照组)心肌细胞中hsf1和HSP70基因的mRNA和蛋白表达量。结果急性心肌梗死猝死者心肌细胞hsf1和HSP70的mRNA表达量都显著高于正常对照组(P<0.01),且hsf1和HSP70 mRNA的表达量之间呈显著的正相关关系(P<0.001)。急性心肌梗死猝死者心肌细胞hsf1和HSP70蛋白在细胞浆和细胞核表达较对照组显著增强(P<0.01),其中hsf1蛋白主要在心肌细胞核内表达,HSP70蛋白主要在心肌细胞浆内表达。结论急性心肌梗死猝死者心肌细胞内hsf1和HSP70可能共同参与了急性心肌梗死的病理生理过程,这一过程可能是热休克反应的另一调节途径。     

46例老年死亡与用药的相关分析

目的：对药物不良反应监测期间所发生的４６例老年死亡病例进行用药相关分析。方法：由ＡＤＲ小组讨论和Ｎａｒａｎｊｏ表评分确定ＡＤＲ后,将死亡时伴发严重ＡＤＲ的病例定为与用药拟相关死亡。结果：４６例死亡病例中,有２７例共发生４３次ＡＤＲ,其中１１例为用药拟相关的死亡,主要为抗菌药物导致为肝,肾功能严重损害及不可控制的二重感染,地高辛中毒导致的严重心律失常。     

2006年度我国司法精神病鉴定状况调查

目的了解我国司法精神病鉴定的现状。方法向全国的司法精神病鉴定机构发出《2006年度司法精神病鉴定机构及业务调查表》,收集各机构年度鉴定业务信息,将资料汇总后进行统计分析。结果共发出调查表225份,收回105份。现行鉴定人员中专职鉴定人员占26.66%。在鉴定委托机构中,公安局占64.81%,法院占11.23%。鉴定案件中,刑事案件占64.57%,伤残鉴定案件占第二位(14.30%)。刑事案型分布,依次为杀人(22.07%)、伤害(18.31%)、被奸(12.75%)、盗窃(9.79%)。刑事案件中,鉴定诊断有精神疾病的依次为:精神分裂症(33.93%),精神发育迟滞(18.04%),情感性障碍(7.44%)。民事案件中,鉴定诊断为脑器质性精神障碍的比例最高,占29.55%。结论本研究一定程度上反映了当前我国司法精神病鉴定的特点,为今后提高司法精神病鉴定工作提供参考。     

Human papillomavirus prevalence in women attending routine cervical screening in South Wales, UK: a cross-sectional study

In this cross-sectional population-based study we determine human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence in South Wales to provide comprehensive baseline data for future assessment of the impact of prophylactic HPV vaccination and to help inform future screening strategies. Liquid-based cytology samples from women attending routine cervical screening were collected (n=10 000: mean age 38 years, 93% cytology negative, and 64.8% from the 50% least deprived LSOA according to social deprivation score (SDS)). High-Risk (HR) and Low-Risk HPV screening was performed using HPV PCR-EIA with genotyping of HR positives and data correlated with age, SDS and cytology. Overall HPV prevalence was 13.5% (9.3% age standardised) and the most frequent HR types were HPV 16, 31, 18 and 58. In HR HPV-positive cases 42.4% had a single HR type and they were predominant in women with severe cytological abnormalities. Here, 66% of all HR HPV cases were in women aged 30 years of age or less and SDS had no significant effect on HPV status. HPV prevalence increased significantly with degree of dyskarosis from 7% in cytology negative samples to 80% in samples with severe cytological abnormalities (P-value <0.0001). Overall, 46% of HR HPV cases were positive for the two HR types targeted by the prophylactic vaccines (HPV 16 and HPV 18). The data presented represents the largest type-specific investigation of HPV prevalence in an unselected UK population.

Sunscreens as a preventative measure in melanoma: an evidence-based approach or the precautionary principle?

Background  Meta-analyses of observational case-control studies have demonstrated no association between sunscreen use and the development of malignant melanoma.
Objectives  To postulate whether modern sunscreens are likely to be effective as a preventative agent in melanoma and, if so, how many cases might be avoided by their use.
Methods  The potential number of melanomas prevented by encouraging the use of modern, high SPF, broad spectrum sunscreens during recreational summer exposure was estimated by combining the prevalence of their use with the relative risk of melanoma in nonusers compared with those people who regularly use these products.
Results  Notwithstanding the inherent uncertainties and assumptions that this approach involves, it is shown that significant numbers of melanomas might be avoided by regular sunscreen use during recreational summer sun exposure, and with them appreciable financial, social and emotional costs, even for very modest estimates of the benefit of broad-spectrum sunscreens.
Conclusions  Despite the lack of evidence demonstrating the efficacy of modern sunscreens in preventing melanoma, it is argued that it would be irresponsible not to encourage their use, along with other sun protection strategies, as a means of combating the year-on-year rise in melanoma incidence.     

Male siblings with Takayasu's arteritis suggest genetic etiology

Summary Takayasu's arteritis is a nonspecific arteritis involving the aorta and its major branches. The disease mainly affects young females and familial incidence is uncommon. In this paper, two rare cases of male siblings with Takayasu's arteritis and the results of their HLA typing are described. The HLA haplotype of the two cases was completely identical—A2-B40-Cwl and A24(9)-Bw59-Cwl, DR2, and DR4. It is reported that BW52(5) is strongly associated with the disease. However, in our cases, Bw52(5) was not found, while DR2 and DR4, which have been reported in association with several autoimmune disease, were detected. Accordingly, in these cases, genetic factors might be associated with the pathogenesis of the disease through an autoimmune mechanism.
