C5a/C5aR通路对约氏疟原虫增殖和小鼠生存的影响

目的观察C5a/C5aR通路对约氏疟原虫17XL（P.y17XL）的增殖及其对BALB/c小鼠致死率的影响。结论将实验小鼠分为正常BALB/c组和C5aR-/-BALB/c组,每组5只,相同剂量的P.y17XL（2×105）分别感染正常BALB/c组小鼠和C5aR-/-BALB/c组小鼠,于感染后0、2、4和6d观察两组小鼠原虫血症和存活率的变化,并且采用ELISA检测感染P.y17XLBALB/c小鼠血清中C5a的水平。结果与正常组小鼠相比,C5aR-/-组小鼠生存期缩短,P.y17XL在C5aR-/-组小鼠的原虫血症较野生株小鼠高（P〈0.05）,而P.y17XL感染小鼠的血清中C5a含量低于未感染的小鼠。结论 C5a/C5aR能够抑制P.y17XL的增殖,并能延长感染小鼠的生存期。     

Sounding the 'citizen-patient': the politics of voice at the Hospice Des Quinze-vingts in post-revolutionary Paris

This essay explores new models of the citizen-patient by attending to the post-Revolutionary blind 'voice'. Voice, in both a literal and figurative sense, was central to the way in which members of the Hospice des Quinze-Vingts, an institution for the blind and partially sighted, interacted with those in the community. Musical voices had been used by members to collect alms and to project the particular spiritual principle of their institution since its foundation in the thirteenth century. At the time of the Revolution, the Quinze-Vingts voice was understood by some political authorities as an exemplary call of humanity. Yet many others perceived it as deeply threatening. After 1800, productive dialogue between those in political control and Quinze-Vingts blind members broke down. Authorities attempted to silence the voice of members through the control of blind musicians and institutional management. The Quinze-Vingts blind continued to reassert their voices until around 1850, providing a powerful form of resistance to political control. The blind 'voice' ultimately recognised the right of the citizen-patient to dialogue with their political carers.     

Programa de formación del residente de cirugía en un laboratorio experimental de cirugía minimamente invasiva (CENDOS)

Introduction

The rapid development of laparoscopic surgery makes resident training programmes necessary.

Objective

To analyse the results of a structured programme of laparoscopic training in an experimental laboratory.

Material and method

From 2003 until 2007, we trained 11 general surgery residents for 20 h every 3 months, for three years. The practice consisted of suture and anastomosis in Endo-Trainer with animal organs, as well as laparoscopic techniques in live animals. In the Endo-Trainer practice we evaluated the time and quality of anastomosis performance. In laparoscopic techniques (cholecystectomy and anti-reflux surgery) a task table was evaluated, from 0 (no errors) to 100 (severe lesion).

Results

In total, 314 anastomosis were performed by the 11 residents, with a median of 28.5 per resident (24-42). The mean time for the first gastro-jejunal anastomosis was 135 min (100-140) and 65 min (57.5-105) for the first jejunal-jejunal anastomosis. Maximum learning was achieved after 45 training hours. There wer no appreciable ifferences between both types of anastomosis. There was inadequate anastomosis quality due to leakage in 17.1% during the learning period and 13.7% during the consolidation period. In the animal, 172 procedures were performed. In cholecystectomy and anti-reflux surgery the mean scores were 2.4 and 5.6 points, respectively. In the remaining procedures, subjectively evaluated by the monitors, the quality was adequate in 65%, deficient in 22% and highly deficient in 13%.

Conclusions

This structured programme of laparoscopic skills based on intestinal anastomosis allows for quicker resident training.     

穴位埋线配合中频电疗治疗慢传输型便秘的临床研究

目的探讨穴位埋线配合中频电疗治疗慢传输型便秘的疗效及机理。方法将62例慢传输型便秘的患者随机分为穴位埋线配合中频电疗观察组34例,口服麻仁软胶囊对照组28例,观察临床症状及腰骶椎检查阳性体征的变化及临床疗效对比。结果观察组疗效明显优于对照组,临床症状积分改变及腰骶椎阳性体征的变化有非常显著意义（P〈0．05）。结论穴位埋线配合中频电疗治疗慢传输型便秘是一种疗效显著、操作简便、容易接受的治疗手段,值得推广应用。     

Analgesic activity of affinin, an alkamide from Heliopsis longipes (Compositae)

Heliopsis longipes (Compositae) is a Mexican plant used as analgesic in pain toothache. A solution of 10mug/ml of dichloromethane extract from this plant showed analgesic activity determined by means of GABA release in mice brain slices. Through a bioassay-directed separation, fractions G-1, G-2, G-4 and G-6 at the same concentration were active. Affinin was the unique and common active compound, and evoke the GABA release 0.5min after administration at 1x10(-4)M concentration. Inactive compound were undeca-2E-en-8,10-dyinoic acid isobutylamide, hinokinin, 2'-hydroxyhinokinin, 3beta-sn-glyceroyl-(1'-palmitoxy)urs-12-ene, 13(18)-ursen-3beta-ol, 13(18)-ursen-3beta-acetate, beta-sitosterol and stigmasterol. The analgesic activity of Heliopsis longipes could be associated to affinin.
