小鼠经口投镉的慢性毒性研究——病理形态学改变的探讨

选用昆明种小鼠60只,体重18～24克,随机分成三组,每组20只,雌雄各半。通过饮水染毒。一组正常对照,饮自来水,二组饮30ppm含镉水,三组饮300ppm含镉水,染毒时间三个半月。观察指标:体重增长速度、脏器系数、肝肾中镉含量、重点病理形态学改变(光镜和电镜)。结果,30ppm组小鼠肝肾组织有一定病变,300ppm组小鼠的光镜和电镜的病理形态学改变更为明显。提示,小鼠长期摄入镉可引起一定的损害。     

Subclinical pulmonary oedema and intermittent haemodialysis

It has been postulated that patients with chronic renal failure,even in the absence of cardiopulmonary symptoms, accumulateinterstitial pulmonary fluid, which is removed by haemodialysis.To test this hypothesis we used the indocyanine green (ICG)-heavywater double indicator dilution method to measure lung water,cardiac output, and central blood volume in relation to haemodialysis.Ten uraemic patients, without cardiopulmonary symptoms, wereinvestigated at the beginning and end, and 2 h after, a regulardialysis session. A group of 18 surgical patients about to undergoelective abdominal surgery served as controls. Despite normalgas exchange, central blood volume, and cardiac output at thestart of dialysis the mean (SD) lung water was significantlyhigher than in the control group [4.8 (0.9) compared with 3.6(0.7) ml/kg, P<0.001]. There was no correlation between weightgain between sessions of dialysis and the magnitude of lungwater at the start of dialysis. Lung water decreased (P <0.001)to the level of the control group in response to dialysis. Therewas no correlation between weight loss and reduction in lungwater induced by dialysis. In conclusion, we have verified thepresence of subclinical pulmonary oedema which was removed bydialysis in a group of patients with established renal failure.The variations in lung water cannot be explained by hydrostaticmechanisms alone.     

Structure-acute toxicity relationship of aromatic hydrocarbons in mice

The structure-acute toxicity relationship of aromatic hydrocarbons was examined in mice. In all test compounds, the acute toxicity was determined under 2 conditions: control LD₅₀ (LD₅₀-cont) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-pretreated LD₅₀ (LD₅₀-CCl₄). The CCl₄-pretreatment was done in order to evaluate the toxic potency of compound itself without the influence of metabolism. Both log (1/LD₅₀-cont) and log (1/LD₅₀-CCl₄) were functions of the log P, n-octanol/water partition coefficient, i.e., log (1/LD₅₀-cont) = 0.080 log P − 1.532 and log (1/LD₅₀-CCl₄) = −0.040(log P)² + 0.157 log P − 1.373. Both equations were statistically significant (P < 0.01). The ratio of LD₅₀-cont/LD₅₀-CCl₄ indicated that metabolic activation is more evident in hydrophobic compounds than in hydrophilic compounds. The results suggest that hydrophobicity of the aromatic hydrocarbons plays an important role in determining their acute toxicity.

Body composition in the elderly: Total body water and anthropometry

Body composition measured with isotopic dilution was compared with anthropometric measurements. The study was carried out in 47 subjects from both sexes, 65 to 92 years old. Total body water (TBW), anthropometric measurements, and dynamometry were assessed. TBW was significatively higher in men than women and decreased with age. Dynamometry and fatfree mass were well correlated (r=0.73 in males and r=0.58 in females) and significantly different between sexes. A negative correlation was found for dynamometry with age, being significant for women. Linear regression equations to predict TBW from anthropometric measurements in males and females were obtained: Males: TBW(I)=19.349+0.617 weight(kg) — 0.931 mid-arm circumference(cm)+0.122 dynamometry (kg) Females: TBW(l)=−5.531+0.343 weight(kg)-0.213 triceps skinfold (mm)+ 0.148 dynamometry(kg) + 3.424 wrist diameter (cm). This simple model is proposed for use in epidemiological and field studies where other more sophisticated methods can not be applied.     

Public health medicine and drinking water in Scotland

The prevention of the spread of disease by drinking water relies on a tripartate arrangement among the supplier, the regulator and their medical advisers. This paper describes the role of Public Health Medicine in Scotland in preventing a ‘significant risk to health’ from potable water. The legislative framework is highlighted. The rationale of water monitoring is examined and the role of Consultant in Public Health Medicine. The concept of Significant Medical Risk Values is introduced and their derivation, uses, and levels presented.

Effects of PEEP on extra vascular lung water and central blood volume in the dog

Twenty-four mongrel dogs were anaesthetized and ventilated mechanically in the supine position. Extravascular lung water (EVLW) and central blood volume (CBV) were measured with a double indicator (dye/cold) dilution technique. Both indicators were detected intravascularly in the aortic root with a fibreoptic thermistor catheter. Seven dogs ventilated with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 1.0 kPa (10 cmH2O) for a short period of time (less than 20 min) displayed no significant change in EVLW as measured with the indicator dilution technique (= EVLWi), while reductions were seen in both CBV (15%, P less than 0.01) and cardiac output (CO-thermodilution technique) (10%, P less than 0.05). Another seven dogs ventilated with a PEEP of 1.0 kPa for 8 h showed a gradual increase in EVLWi. After 8 h, a mean increase of 34% (P less than 0.01) was recorded, and the increase was also verified by post-mortem gravimetric determination of EVLW (= EVLWg), displaying an increase of 61% (P less than 0.01). In five dogs ventilated with zero end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP) for 8 h, no changes in EVLWi, CO, and CBV were observed, and EVLWg was mean 4.39 g/kg body weight (BW). Five additional dogs were sacrificed after 15 min of anaesthesia without catheterization and EVLWg was found to be 4.24 g/kg BW. It is concluded that EVLWi does not change measurably during ZEEP or short periods of PEEP. However, long periods (8 h) of PEEP result in elevated EVLWi values. Gravimetry supports these conclusions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
