Additional bedtime H2‐receptor antagonist for the control of nocturnal gastric acid breakthrough: A Cochrane systematic review

OBJECTIVES: To assess the effectiveness and safety of additional bedtime H₂‐receptor antagonists (H₂RAs) in suppressing nocturnal gastric acid breakthrough (NAB) via a systematic review. METHODS: Eligible trials were identified by searching the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (Cochrane Library Issue 2, 2004), MEDLINE (January 1966–June 2004), EMBASE (January 1980–June 2004) and CINAHL (January 1982–June 2004). Additional hand‐searching was conducted on the proceedings of correlated conferences, eight important Chinese journals and references of all included trials. All randomized controlled trials evaluating H₂RAs for the control of NAB were eligible for inclusion. The systematic review was conducted using methods recommended by The Cochrane Collaboration. RESULTS: Only two randomized crossover studies, comprising 32 participants, met the inclusion criteria. Because the design, dosage and duration of the treatments were different between the studies, it was not possible to conduct meta‐analysis. There were no consistent conclusions found between the two included studies in evaluating H₂RAs for the control of NAB. CONCLUSIONS: No implications for practice at this stage can be concluded. Appropriately designed large‐scale randomized controlled trials with long‐term follow up are needed to determine the effects of additional bedtime H₂RAs in suppressing NAB.

影响颅脑外伤术后颅内感染的危险因素分析

目的探讨影响颅脑外伤开颅术后颅内感染的危险因素。方法采用回顾性研究比较分析了912例颅脑损伤术后出现颅内感染与未出现颅内感染组间的差异因素。结果非感染 770例,颅内感染142例(15．6％)。感染类型有无菌性脑膜炎、细菌性脑膜炎、脑室炎及脑室积脓、脑脓肿、硬膜下腔积脓、术区皮下或(和)骨瓣下化脓或合并骨髓炎、切口感染。细菌检出率占感染的27．5％。颅脑外伤术后感染与高温季节、高龄、重度以上损伤、短期内两次以上手术、连续两侧开颅术、长时间 (>5 h)手术、显微外科手术、颅底与后颅凹手术、脑室外引流、皮下或硬膜外积液以及急诊手术等因素相关(P<0．05)。结论对具有上述危险冈素的易感患者应给予更密切的关注和预防性的处理。     

高同型半胱氨酸血症与脑卒中相关性研究

目的探讨血浆同型半胱氨酸(H cy)水平对脑卒中临床亚型、复发及痴呆的影响,并研究高同型半胱氨酸血症(HH)与脑卒中传统危险因素之间的相关性。方法应用酶联免疫吸附试验(EL ISA)检测90例急性脑卒中患者血浆H cy水平。将研究对象分为不同临床亚型,脑白质损伤组与非脑白质损伤组,青年组与老年组,痴呆组与非痴呆组。对不同类型脑卒中患者血浆H cy水平进行比较,对HH脑卒中传统危险因素进行相关与回归分析。结果首次发作(FCS)组血浆H cy水平明显低于复发(RCS)组(P<0.01),HH发生率比较RCS组明显高于FCS组(P<0.05)。痴呆组血浆H cy水平与对照组有差别(P<0.01)。饮酒者血浆H cy含量明显高于不摄入酒精者(P<0.05)。结论HH是脑卒中的独立危险因素,脑卒中患者普遍存在HH,在复发性脑卒中患者中尤其明显。血浆H cy水平随年龄增加而增加,同时HH与血管性痴呆和/或变性性痴呆有关。     

Comparison of parent and teacher reports of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms from two placebo-controlled studies of atomoxetine in children.

BACKGROUND: The validity of parent reports regarding children's attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms has been questioned. This study assessed whether parent reports were as sensitive as teacher reports to document change in ADHD symptoms during clinical trials with atomoxetine. METHODS: Data were compared from two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials of atomoxetine using different versions (parent or teacher) of the same rating scale (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-IV [parent or teacher] Version: Investigator Administered and Scored - ADHD RS). Exclusion criteria included history of bipolar disorder, psychosis, seizures, alcohol abuse, or positive drug screen. Patients (6-16 years old) were treated with atomoxetine (titrated to a maximum dose of 1.8 mg/kg/day) administered once daily for up to 7 weeks. Parent and teacher ratings were compared using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model. RESULTS: The analysis (n = 318) showed that treatment effects (mean change, baseline to endpoint) were similar between parent and teacher ratings (total, p = .762; inattention, p = .519; hyperactive/impulsive, p = .955). Effect sizes also were similar based on total scores (parent ratings = .69; teacher ratings = .63). CONCLUSIONS: Parent reports are as sensitive as teacher reports in assessing the efficacy of long-acting pharmacologic treatment for ADHD in children during clinical trials using the nonstimulant atomoxetine.     

Framing the child at risk

Risk Assessment Reports are one form of accounting practice which delineate the space of risk considered in a child abuse neglect investigation. The paper analyses two Risk Assessment Reports, contrasting what is reported, what is directly observed and what is hypothesized and implied by child protection practitioners during the assessment of risk. From an analysis of these two reports (each 4 – 5 pages long), the paper identifies the rhetorical strategies and their realizations used by two practitioners in framing the child at risk. The paper problematizes the tension between the institutional need to constrain the exercise of professional judgement through Risk Assessment Models, and the extent to which practitioners actually localize the framing of risk to specific areas of investigation.     

儿童精神分裂症患者的预后及相关因素分析

目的探讨儿童精神分裂症的预后及其影响因素。方法收集1987—1997年首次住院的儿童(起病年龄≤14岁)精神分裂症患者(儿童组)124例和同期首次住院的成人(起病年龄25～30岁)精神分裂症患者(成人组)120例,采用社会功能缺陷量表(SDSS)、日常生活能力量表(ADL)、大体评定量表(GAS)及自制调查表,以随访与量表现场测评相结合的方法获得资料,数据采用多因素回归分析。结果(1)儿童组服药依从性(90例,77.6%)好于成人组(73例,64.0%；)χ~2= 5.11,P＜0.05)；复发率(29.3%)低于成人组(42.1%；χ~2=4.10,P＜0.05)。(2)儿童组预后良好者(91例,78.4%)显著多于成人组(65例,57.0%)。(3)儿童组的社会功能[(2.11±1.02)分]和日常生活能力[(18.78±9.17)分]优于成人组[(3.48±1.86)分和(21.82±8.67)分；P＜0.01和P＜0.05]。(4)经多因素回归分析,影响儿童精神分裂症预后的主要因素有：社会家庭关爱程度,首次住院疗效,起病形式,服药时间和病期(P＜0.01)。结论儿童精神分裂症患者总体预后较好；充分的家庭关爱,首次住院疗效好,急性起病,坚持长期治疗和病期较短者的预后更好。     

检测子宫内膜异位症患者血清中差异表达蛋白的研究

目的：检测子宫内膜异位症（内异症）患者血清中差异表达的蛋白。方法：采用表面增强激光解吸／离子化飞行时间质谱（SELDI—TOF—MS）技术，选用WCX2蛋白质芯片对50例内异症及48例对照组血清标本进行检测以筛选内异症血清中差异表达的蛋白。结果：在Mr 0～50000范围内，检测出106个蛋白峰。内异症患者血清中差异表达的蛋白峰有4个。将发现的差异蛋白峰在Swiss蛋白数据库中搜索，发现Mr 9280蛋白峰与玻璃粘连蛋白Vitronectin相符。Vitronectin属于整合素家族，在内异症的粘附、侵袭、血管形成过程中起重要作用。其他的蛋白峰没有发现与之相匹配的蛋白，提示可能为新的蛋白质。结论：内异症患者血清中存在差异表达的蛋白，其对内异症的早期诊断具有一定的临床意义。SELDI蛋白芯片技术是一种快速、简单易行、样本用量少、高通量、重复性好的分析方法，具有广阔的临床应用前景。     

Cerebral autoregulation is preserved in multiple system atrophy: A transcranial Doppler study.

Patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) present large changes in blood pressure (BP) due to autonomic disturbances. We analyzed how this change may influence dynamic cerebral autoregulation (DCA). Simultaneous recordings of arterial BP (Finapres) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) blood flow velocity (BFV) (transcranial Doppler) were performed in 10 patients with MSA (61 +/- 12 yr of age) and 12 healthy volunteers (61 +/- 11 yr of age): cerebral BFV response to oscillations in mean BP was studied in the supine position by cross-spectral analysis of mean BP and mean MCA BFV. The DCA was also studied during the decrease in BP the first seconds when standing up from a sitting position by the assessment of the cerebrovascular resistance index (CR; mean BP/mean MCA BFV ratio). The MCA BFV/BP cross-spectral analysis showed a phase for the mid-frequency band (0.07-0.2 Hz) significantly larger in MSA, suggesting more active autoregulation in response to larger changes in BP. Changes in CR reflecting the rate of autoregulation, when standing did not differ between the two groups. These data suggest that dynamic cerebral autoregulation is preserved in MSA.     

癫痫手术后短期内癫痫发作病因分析及临床意义

目的:研究癫痫手术后短期癫痫发作的原因以及对预后的判断价值。方法:回顾性分析73例患者资料,将抗癫痫药物使用情况、以及是否颞叶癫痫、是否由肿瘤引起的癫痫、是否外伤性癫痫发作作为危险因素与术后短期癫痫发作进行Logistic回归模型分析。并对所有患者进行了12个月以上的随访。手术后短期癫痫发作与患者术后长期控制结果进行χ2检验。结果:19例患者发生APOSs。手术后抗癫痫药物使用不合理可能是APOSs独立的危险因素。癫痫手术患者出现APOSs组与未出现APOSs组在术后随访的癫痫Enge分级评分中无统计学差异。结论:抗癫痫药物的使用不当可能是手术后短期癫痫发作的主要原因之一。癫痫手术后APOSs的出现不能预测患者的长期预后情况。
