不同疗法对肌筋膜疼痛病人的自主神经功能的影响

目的：本研究的目的是观察注射疗法及复合小针刀疗法治疗肌筋膜疼痛综合征对自主神经系统功能的影响。方法：选择40例诊断明确的肌筋膜疼痛病人，随机分为两组，每组20例。Ⅰ组：采用注射疗法治疗；IS组：采用注射疗法加小针刀治疗。观察两组病人治疗前后心率变异（HRV）的频域变化，低频LF、超低频LLF、高频HF、低高频比LF／HF及心率变异指数HR-Ⅵ；用视觉模拟评分法（VAS）评定治疗前后疗效并随访观察其远期疗效。结果：①HRV频域指标组内比较：LF、LLF、HF以及HRVI治疗前舆治疗后1min比较有显着性差异（P〈0．05），与5min、10min比较有非常显着性差异（P〈0．01）。LF／HF治疗前与治疗后5min、10min比较有显着性差异（P〈0．05）。组间治疗后1、5、10min，两两比较无显着性差异。②组间比较：病人治疗后临床症状、VAS评分均较治疗前降低．治疗前后IS组有非常显着性差异（P〈0．01）。两组VAS降低率有非常显着性差异（P〈0．01）。③回访病例中，两组治疗有效率比较有显着性差异（P〈0．05）。结论：注射疗法以及复合小针刀疗法均可有效改善肌筋膜疼痛病人的自主神经功能，其机制可能是通过调节、稳定自主神经系统功能达到缓解疼痛。注射疗法复合小针刀疗法的远期疗效优于单纯注射疗法。

Recombinant glycoprotein based vaccine for Chandipura virus infection

Chandipura virus (CHPV) has emerged as an important pediatric encephalitis-causing pathogen with very high mortality in India. No specific vaccine or treatment is available till date. We attempted to prepare a candidate vaccine employing recombinant CHPV Glycoprotein (rGp). The Glycoprotein gene (G-gene) of CHPV was expressed using Baculovirus expression system. The rGp was purified by HPLC and used for mice immunization, 3 doses, and 4 weeks apart. One microgram rGp was found to be optimum. Sero-conversion was observed as early as 2nd week by detecting anti-CHPV IgG antibodies. Antibody titres were immunogen-concentration dependent. Intracerebral challenge of the immunized mice with 100 LD₅₀ of the homologous strain demonstrated 90% protection. In in vitro neutralization, antibodies from the immunized mice were able to neutralize heterologous viruses. There was 60% T cell proliferation observed against rGp in immunized mice. The study shows that rGp induces both arms of immune response and represents an ideal vaccine candidate for further evaluations.     

Extacorporeal shock wave therapy unsuccessful for chronic medial epicondylitis

Medial epicondylitis is a chronic noninflammatory condition resulting from mechanical injury. Despite many treatment options, including rest, medications, physiotherapy and operative interventions, the results are too often poor; thus new treatment options are sought. We treated 4 men with chronic epicondylitis (5 affected joints) with extracorporeal shock wave therapy after failed attempts of other treatments. The patients’ complaints were graded with the Nirschl scoring system prior to and six months after therapy. The treatment consisted of three sessions, at 20-day intervals, of 3000 pulses of ultrasonic shock waves from a Piezolith 3000 unit (energy dosage was gradually increased to reach step 10 equaling 0.9 mJ/mm²). At the 6-month follow-up, no patient was pain free. Three cases had slightly lower Nirschl scores than prior to the procedure but the patients rated this difference as insignificant; two cases were unchanged. No complications were observed but all patients rated the procedure as very unpleasant. The well recognized biologic effects of ultrasonographic waves (heat generation, oscillations, cavitation, etc.) that result in functional and structural changes of cellular membranes with sonochemical reactions (acceleration of normal metabolism, oxygenation and reduction in water solutions, polymer degradation, etc.), even if present in our cases, did not result in a noticeable decrease of symptoms, even though we used high energy and more impulses per session. Significant variations in methodology make inconclusive the results of numerous reports on the use of extracorporeal shock waves in epicondylar degenerative problems, although ineffectiveness of such therapy is the conclusion of a review by Haake and colleagues.     

Compromised late-stage motion processing in schizophrenia.

BACKGROUND: Visual motion processing is compromised in schizophrenia, as shown in deficient velocity discrimination. Processing of motion signals comprises progressive stages along the geniculate-striate-extrastriate-cortex pathway. Based on neurophysiologic and brain lesion studies, a velocity discrimination deficit can implicate early-stage motion processing if it is contrast-dependent or late-stage motion processing if it is contrast-independent. METHODS: To determine which stage underlies the deficient velocity discrimination in schizophrenia, we examined the effects of visual contrast on velocity discrimination. We measured velocity discrimination thresholds in schizophrenia patients (n = 34) and normal control subjects (n = 17) at both low and high contrasts, using each subject's contrast detection threshold to equate contrast levels. RESULTS: Schizophrenia patients showed poor velocity discrimination that improved little with high contrast, whereas normal control subjects showed enhanced velocity discrimination with increased contrast. CONCLUSIONS: The finding that the velocity discrimination deficit in schizophrenia is independent of contrast modulation implicates the later, rather than the earlier, stages of motion processing, which is mediated in the extrastriate cortex.

研究了基于非复制系统强化实现混沌同步的方法。通过选取非复制系统中合适的控制参数，可以实现混沌系统的同步。并且当复制系统不能同步时，用非复制响应系统同样可以实现混沌同步，或者加速实现混沌系统的同步化。通过对Chua混沌电路和混沌的Lorenz系统的同步设计和数值仿真，验证了其有效性。     

探究医院电子信息交换标准HL7

医药信息学在医学应用中的最大领域就是医院信息系统(Hospital Infornation System,HIS),随着HIS的快速发展,需要我们有一个开放的,统一的HIS开发和交换的标准.HL7是1987年开始发展起来的一个专门规范医疗机构用于临床信息,财务信息和管理信息电子信息交换的标准.它特别适合于解决不同厂商开发的医院信息系统、临床实验室系统及药学信息系统之间的互连问题.HL7在国内的发展刚刚起步,但是我国医疗卫生信息化发展很快,尤其是医疗保险、社区医疗和区域卫生信息系统等,都十分需要标准化的支持,HL7将成为建设这些系统的重要基础和关键技术.
