双氯灭痛药膜体外透皮速率的实验研究

作者选择乙基纤维素、聚乙烯醇等高分子材料制成涂膜剂，用大鼠皮进行双氯灭痛药膜的体外透皮速率测定。结果表明，氮酮与丙二醇可以促进药物渗透。不同的高分子材料可影响药物的扩散与释放，从而影响其透皮速率。与无膜无促透剂处方相比，药物在乙基纤维素中的透皮速率没有增加，在聚乙烯醇膜中的透皮速率有显著增加。     

Presynaptic α2-adrenoceptor-mediated modulation of norepinephrine release from vascular adrenergic neurons in reduced renal mass salt hypertensive rats

The present study was designed to investigate the presynaptic alpha 2-adrenoceptor function to inhibit norepinephrine (NE) release in blood vessels of reduced renal mass salt hypertensive rats (Na-loaded HT). Isolated perfused mesenteric vasculatures were prepared from Na-loaded HT and normotensive control rats (NT-control), and the NE release and vascular responsiveness were examined. Periarterial nerve stimulation caused a significantly greater release of NE and pressor responses in Na-loaded HT than in NT-control. Yohimbine, a potent alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist, demonstrated the facilitatory effects on NE release during nerve stimulation. The effects were significantly attenuated in Na-loaded HT compared with NT-control. These results demonstrate that vascular sympathetic nervous activity might be enhanced in Na-loaded HT. Furthermore, the increased NE release from vascular adrenergic neurons in Na-loaded HT could partially depend on impaired presynaptic alpha 2-adrenoceptor-mediated modulation, which might contribute to the pathogenesis and maintenance of this form of salt-dependent hypertension.     

Serotonin 5- HT (2C) receptor knockout mice: autoradiographic analysis of multiple serotonin receptors.

Quantitative receptor autoradiography was used to study possible alterations of the densities of multiple serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes and of serotonin transporter in the brain of 5-HT(2C) receptor knockout mice. The radioligands employed were [(3)H]citalopram, [(3)H]WAY100,635, [(3)H]8-OH-DPAT, [(3)H]GR125743, [(3)H]sumatriptan, [(3)H]MDL100,907, [(125)I](+/-)DOI, [(3)H]mesulergine, [(3)H]5-HT, [(3)H]GR113808, and [(3)H]5-CT. As expected, radioligands that label 5-HT(2C) receptors showed a complete absence of labeling in mutant mice choroid plexus and significantly reduced densities in other brain regions expressing 5-HT(2C) receptors. With the rest of the radioligands, no significant alterations in the densities of labeled sites were found in any brain region. In situ hybridization showed no changes in 5-HT(2A) receptor and serotonin transporter mRNA levels, whereas 5-HT(2C) receptor mRNA levels were reduced in certain brain regions. The present results indicate that the mouse serotonergic system does not exhibit compensatory up- or down-regulation of the majority of its components (serotonin transporter and most 5-HT receptor subtypes) in response to the absence of 5-HT(2C) receptors.     

Doppler-sonographische durchblutungsmessungen der unteren extremität des menschen

Summary A duplex ultrasound system was used to examine the blood flow of the common femoral artery in ten young patients with fractures of the lower extremities. Two patients had fractures of both legs. In eight patients the blood flow in the injuried leg was comparable with that in the not injured leg. The flow alterations were measured on 3–7 different days over a period of 6–224 days after trauma. All patients showed a significant (to twice or three times that before injury) increase in blood flow in the injured leg a few days after trauma and/or operation, whereas the blood flow in the uninjured leg remained the same or even decreased a little. In the case of undisturbed fracture healing the change in blood flow disappeared within 8–12 weeks, corresponding to fracture consolidation. When fracture healing was delayed and/or further operations on the injured leg were necessary, the blood flow was increased for much longer. The hemodynamics of an injured extremity are compared with those reported elsewhere in the literature. The increased demand for oxygen or energy can explain the changes only in part. Another function of the reflective increase in blood flow could be the temperature increase in the extremity.

Doppler-sonographische durchblutungsmessungen der unteren extremität des menschenII. Hämodynamik nach trauma und operation

Zusammenfassung Mittels Doppler-sonographischer Durchblutungsmessung wurde die Hämodynamik der verletzten Extremität an 10 jungen Patienten mit Frakturen der unteren Extremität untersucht. Bei 8 Patienten konnte die Durchblutung des verletzten Beins mit der unverletzten Gegenseite verglichen werden. Die Messungen erfolgten an 3–7 verschiedenen Tagen in einem Zeitraum von 6–224 Tagen nach dem Unfall. An allen verletzten Extremitäten steigt die Durchblutung wenige Tage nach dem Unfall und/oder der Operation deutlich um das 2- bis 3fache an, während die Durchblutung des unverletzten Beins niedrig bleibt. Bei einem ungestörten klinischen Verlauf sinkt die Durchblutung in 8–12 Wochen wieder. Heilungsstörungen und weitere Operationen an dem Bein verzögern diese Normalisierung deutlich. Diese Ergebnisse werden mit anderen Untersuchungen der Literatur verglichen. Ursache und Funktion der hämodynamischen Änderungen könnte u. a. in einer reflektorischen Temperaturerhöhung zu sehen sein.

     

Hygiene in Operationsabteilungen – Empfehlungen des Nationalen Referenzzentrums für Krankenhaushygiene

Zusammenfassung. Viele Hygienema?nahmen in Operationsabteilungen sind durch wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen nicht belegt. Die in dieser Arbeit vom Nationalen Referenzzentrum für Krankenhaushygiene, das 1996 vom Bundesgesundheitsministerium eingerichtet wurde, zusammengestellten Empfehlungen stützen sich auf die Ergebnisse wissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen und trennen so die unbedingt notwendigen von den weniger bzw. nicht sinnvollen Ma?nahmen.

Summary. Many hygienic procedures performed in operation units are not supported by scientific investigations. The following recommendations by the National Reference Center for Hospital Epidemiology, founded by the German Ministry of Health in 1996, are based on the scientific literature and separate necessary from less necessary and unnecessary procedures.

     

Activation of mRNA expression of collagen,collagenase and its inhibitor on renal biopsy specimens in patients with IgA nephropathy

Summary: In situ hybridization of mRNA for collagen IV, collagen VI, stromelysin (MMP-3) and TIMP1 was examined in renal biopsy specimens from patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) or diabetic nephropathy with various degrees of tissue damage. The majority of cells in the glomeruli expressed these mRNA almost simultaneously, but a few cells demonstrated positive expression for only one of these probes. There was a parallel relationship between the degree of tissue damage and that of mRNA expressions of these probes in patients with IgAN, while patients with diabetic nephropathy showed a reverse relationship between these two parameters. It is concluded that patients with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis expressed mRNA for collagen collagenase and its inhibitor in the glomeruli in parallel with the progress of tissue damage. In contrast, glomerular samples from patients with diabetic nephropathy showed that there was an inverse relationship between tissue damage and expression of mRNA. It is concluded that expression of collagen, collagenase and its inhibitor parallels the progression of glomerular changes in IgAN, but such parallel expression was not observed in patients with diabetic nephropathy.     

Implications and Management of Lobular Carcinoma in situ of the Breast (LCIS)

Abstract: Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) has gone from a rare form of mammary cancer to a marker of increased risk. Treatment options have undergone a corresponding change from ipsilateral mastectomy with axillary node dissection to observation once it became clear that the majority of patients did not progress to invasive cancer. However, recent events suggest a re-evaluation of LCIS management options. It is clear that even meticulous observation may fail to detect invasive cancer before systemic spread has taken place. This fact plus the identification of breast cancer genes have brought a renewed interest in prophylactic mastectomy. At the same time pathologists feel that it is possible to identify microscopic features of LCIS pointing to an increased likelihood of developing invasive cancer. As a result physicians are being asked to better quantitate risks for individual patients. Most patients with LCIS do not need bilateral mastectomies, but we are coming closer to identifying the minority that would be better served by prophylactic surgery.
