钝性肝脾肾损伤的CT平扫与增强扫描比较

目的:比较CT平扫与增强扫描对肝脾肾钝性损伤的诊断能力。方法:回顾性分析临床疑似钝性肝脾肾损伤,并经手术和临床观察证实的CT平扫和增强扫描的患者84例。结果:平扫确定的损伤:肝12例,脾25例,肾5例;平扫可疑损伤:肝22例,脾15例,肾5例。增强确定的损伤:肝32例,脾40例,肾12例(全肾梗塞1例,局限性梗塞3例);对比剂外溢(活动性出血)3例;无可疑损伤。平扫无异常而增强确定有损伤:肝10例,脾5例,肾2例。增强显示的损伤灶比平扫范围明显大、病灶多、界限清楚。结论:CT增强扫描显示肝脾肾损伤明显优于平扫,延时扫描有助于发现活动性出血,应常规增强扫描。     

Juvenile Xanthogranuloma with Ocular Involvement

Abstract:   Juvenile xanthogranuloma is a benign histiocytic skin disorder encountered primarily in infancy and childhood. Approximately 0.4% of cases exhibit ocular manifestations, which can result in glaucoma and blindness. We present a case of a 7-month-old male with unilateral glaucoma associated with Juvenile xanthogranuloma, and emphasize the importance of an ocular screening in patients with Juvenile xanthogranuloma, especially those with periocular lesions.     

5-羟色胺受体激动剂对脊髓损伤猫排尿功能的影响

目的探讨5-羟色胺(5-HT)受体激动剂对猫脊髓损伤后膀胱过度活动的影响。方法雌性猫18只,其中正常假手术组5只,脊髓损伤组13只。术后6~8周,氯醛糖麻醉下,在猫颈动脉及膀胱内置管,连接压力感受器,记录诱发膀胱收缩的膀胱容量阈值、膀胱容量、剩余尿量、排尿量和血压。静脉注入5-HT1A受体激动剂8-OH-DPAT(0.3~30μg/kg)或5-HT1B/1D受体激动剂GR-46611(0.03~300μg/kg),得到剂量-效应曲线后再给予5HT1A受体抑制剂WAY-100635(300μg/kg),比较给药前后各项指标变化。结果正常猫使用8-OH-DPAT后,膀胱容量阈值、膀胱容量、剩尿量均有增加趋势,但差异无统计学意义;8-OH-DPAT和GR-46611均能使脊髓损伤猫的膀胱容量阈值、膀胱容量、剩余尿量增加,且效应随着剂量增加而增加,差异有统计学意义。WAY-100635能抵消8-OH-DPAT的作用,但对GR-46611无影响。结论5-HT1A和5-HT1B/1D受体激动剂能改善慢性脊髓损伤后的膀胱过度活动,增加膀胱容量。     

64排螺旋CT冠状动脉造影与DSA的对照研究

目的:通过和冠脉造影对比,评价64排螺旋CT冠状动脉成像在冠状动脉狭窄中的临床应用价值。方法:28例患者同时行64排螺旋CT冠状动脉成像和有创性冠脉造影检查,依据AHA17段分段法,评价所有有效节段,并将两者进行对比。结果:冠脉造影显示阴性病例占7.1%(2例),单只病变占21.4%(6例),多支病变占71.4%(20例)。按节段分析,CT检出冠脉狭窄的敏感度,特异度,阳性预测值和阴性预测值分别为91.1%,94.6%,90.0和95.3%。结论:64排螺旋CT冠状动脉成像和传统的冠脉造影检查对检出正常冠脉节段以及狭窄节段具有很好的一致性。     

Childhood abuse history and risk behaviors among teen parents in a culturally rooted, couple-focused HIV prevention program.

Pregnant and parenting adolescents living in inner cities are at risk for acquiring HIV through unprotected sexual activity. In addition to individual risk behaviors, a lack of socioeconomic and other environmental resources create risk environments that make certain communities vulnerable to both adolescent pregnancy and HIV/AIDS. Research indicates that adolescent parents, many who have histories of childhood trauma, may use their experience of young parenthood and the concomitant feelings of parental protectiveness as a source of renewed hope for their future. The purpose of this report is to explore the relationship between history of childhood abuse and high risk behaviors in adolescent Latino mothers and fathers enrolled in a randomized clinical trial of a culturally rooted, couple-focused HIV prevention program. In addition, this report describes the HIV prevention program that was designed specifically for young Latino parents wherein maternal and paternal protectiveness are viewed as intrinsic and developing critical factors that promote resiliency and motivate behavioral change.     

Advancement Flaps: A Basic Theme with Many Variations

Background. The advancement flap involves the linear advancement of tissue in one direction. Despite its straightforwardness and simple concept, it can be used to close a variety of defects, ranging from small defects on the scalp or extremities to large, complicated defects involving cosmetic units on the face.
Objectives. To provide a basic and useful review for the indications, advantages, disadvantages, and techniques for the use of advancement flaps in the reconstruction of defects in dermatologic surgery.
Materials and Methods. We performed a literature search for articles discussing advancement flaps and compiled a brief review of our findings.
Results. The movement of the advancement flap must be balanced by the blood supply of the flap. The excision of Burow's triangles along various aspects of the advancement flap can increase movement and improve cosmesis of the flap. The types of advancement flaps discussed include the single advancement flap, double advancement flap, A-T flap (O-T flap), Burow's triangle flap (Burow's wedge flap), crescenteric advancement flap, island pedicle flap (V-Y flap), helical rim advancement flap, and facelift flap.
Conclusion. Advancement flaps are versatile and useful basic flaps for repairing defects.     

Lithium for irritability in Post-Traumatic stress disorder

Irritability is often a problem for patients with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We describe two cases that illustrate the use of lithium in the treatment of veterans with PTSD who complained of serious problems with irritability or angry outbursts. These cases are discussed in the context of evidence that lithium may be useful in other patients with disorders of impulse control. The evidence linking disorders of anger and impulse control to a dysregulation in neurotransmitter regulation, particularly in serotonergic pathways, supports a psychopharmacologic approach to treatment. These findings should lead to further study of the role of lithium in the treatment of this symptom complex in patients with PTSD.     

大鼠心肌缺血再灌注时心肌细胞凋亡caspase-3活性变化规律及药物对其影响

目的　探讨大鼠心肌缺血再灌注 (Ischemiareperfusion ,IR)不同时相的心肌细胞凋亡、caspase 3活性变化规律及caspase 3抑制剂Ac DEVD CHO的影响。方法　Wistar大鼠 12 2只 ,设立IR组 ,IR +Ac DEVD CHO组和假手术对照组并分设缺血 3 0min后再灌注 1、3、6、12、2 4h 5个时相点 ;以缺口末端标记法 (TUNEL)标记凋亡细胞 ,用荧光分析法检测caspase 3活性 ,行TTC染色测定心肌梗死范围。结果　心肌细胞凋亡与caspase 3活性随心肌再灌注不同时相而变化 ,心肌细胞凋亡指数 (Apoptosisindex ,AI)与caspase 3活性于再灌注 12h最高 [AI :( 3 4 83± 9 3 5 ) % ;caspase 3活性 :( 1 3 4±0 2 ) ] ,其后基本维持在平台状态 ;心肌梗死范围随IR时间逐渐增加 ,至 2 4h仍未见下降趋势 ,三者间呈显著正相关 (P <0 0 5 )。IR +Ac DEVD CHO组上述指标虽也明显增高 ,但比IR组明显减小 (P <0 0 5 )。结论　Caspase 3激活及心肌细胞凋亡参与了心肌缺血再灌注损伤过程 ,Ac DEVD CHO减轻心肌缺血再灌注损伤可能部分与其抑制心肌细胞凋亡有关。     

止咳枇杷冲剂中枇杷叶和桔梗的薄层色谱鉴别研究

研究止咳枇杷冲剂中枇杷叶和桔梗的薄层色谱鉴别方法。分别取枇杷叶和桔梗药材，制剂及阴性制剂的醋酸乙酯提取液，在硅胶板上前者以ψ（氯仿：甲醇：水）=2：2.25:1.5展开，后者以ψ（正已烷：氯仿：甲醇）=5：4：0.3展开，磷钼酸乙醇溶液显色，在两者供试吕色谱中与各自对照药材色谱相应位置上，分别有相同的蓝绿色特征斑点；阴性制剂色谱图中无此斑点，因此该方法可作为这两味中药的鉴别方法。     

Aktuelles zum Thema Latex-Allergie

Zusammenfassung Die Typ I-Allergien gegen Latex sind in den vergangenen Jahren zu einem zunehmenden berufsdermatologischen Problem geworden, zumal mindestens 10% der Angestellten im Gesundheitswesen betroffen sind. In der Dermatologischen Klinik der Universit?t Erlangen-Nürnberg stieg die Anzahl der j?hrlich diagnostizierten Patienten mit Latexallergien von 1989 bis 1995 auf das 12fache, wobei der Anteil der schweren, generalisierten Formen der Erkrankung von 10,7% (1989/1990) auf 44% (1994/1995) zunahm. Unter den m?glichen Ausl?sern der Latexallergie (wasserl?sliche Proteine mit Molekulargewichten von 2 bis 200 kD) sind mindestens 5 Hauptproteine mit bereits bekannter Prim?rstruktur zu berücksichtigen. Zus?tzlich gibt es Hinweise für Markerproteine, die in bestimmten Risikogruppen geh?uft zur Ausl?sung spezifischer IgE-Antik?rper führen (z.B. 46 kD-Protein in medizinischen Berufen, 14,6 kD- und 27 kD-Proteine bei Kindern mit Spina bifida). Das Vorkommen von Kreuzreaktionen zwischen Latex und unterschiedlichen Früchten (besonders Avocado, Kiwi, Banane, E?kastanie) bei 60 bis 70% der Latexallergiker ist bei der allergologischen Abkl?rung und Beratung dieser Patienten zu beachten. Wesentliche Aspekte der Prophylaxe umfassen die konsequente Umstellung medizinischer Einrichtungen auf ungepuderte Latexhandschuhe mit niedrigem Proteingehalt. Eine Zusammenstellung von OP- und Untersuchungshandschuhen, welche Angaben über die von uns ermittelten Proteinkonzentrationen (modifizierte Lowry-Methode und Hochdruck-Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie, HPLC) enth?lt, soll ein Leitfaden bei der Auswahl allergologisch geeigneter Handschuhe sein.
