感染性心内膜炎因诊断或治疗失误所导致的并发症

选择因诊治失误导致严重并发症的四例感染性心内膜炎进行分析,提出改善此病预后的三个方面:提高对感染性心内膜炎的识别能力;坚持早期、足量、长程使用抗生素的治疗原则;对有适应症者及时手术治疗。     

PPD为丝裂源作淋巴细胞转化试验对结核性胸膜炎的诊断价值

以结核菌素纯蛋白衍生物(PPD)为丝裂源作淋巴细胞转化试验,检测结核性(17例)和非结核性(14例)胸膜炎患者的外周血淋巴细胞(PBL)和胸腔积液淋巴细胞(PEL)对PPD 的反应性。结果显示:结核性胸膜炎患者无论PPD 皮试是阳性还是阴性,其PEL 的PPD 刺激指数(PPD-SI)都显著高于PBL(P 分别<0.001与<0.01);结核性PEL 的PPD-SI 显著高于非结核性PEL(P<0.001)。提示PPD 胸腔积液淋巴细胞转化试验可作为诊断结核性胸膜炎的有效方法。     

As2O3处理前后K562细胞基因表达变化的基因芯片检测

目的应用基因芯片研究三氧化二砷(As2O3)处理前后K562细胞基因表达的变化.方法提取As2O3处理前后K562细胞的总RNA,纯化为mRNA后再反转录为cDNA.cDNA经限制性内切酶Sau3AI切割后,cDNA片段分别用Cy3和Cy5标记,与自制的包含348个基因片段的胎盘库芯片杂交.结果杂交结果经扫描和软件分析,发现了11个差异表达的基因片段,其中有3个基因片段与细胞凋亡密切相关.结论我们构建的胎盘库基因芯片可以成功地用于研究药物作用前后基因表达的变化.     

Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer在基因差异表达研究中的应用

目的观察Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer 芯片分析系统(以下简称Bioanalyzer)在基因差异表达研究中的应用。方法应用限制性显示技术分别从正常和热休克处理后的酿酒酵母细胞中分离出cDNA片段,然后再用Bioanalyzer和传统的琼脂糖凝胶电泳技术对RD-PCR产物进行检测分析。结果Bioanalyzer能更快速、敏感地分离和显示差异表达的基因片段,并且通过对差异片段进行定量比较,发现了数个表达有明显差异的基因片段。结论Bioanalyzer在基因差异表达研究中具有重要的应用价值。     

Why is the age-standardized incidence of low-trauma fractures rising in many elderly populations?

Low-trauma fractures of elderly people are a major public health burden worldwide, and as the number and mean age of older adults in the population continue to increase, the number of fractures is also likely to increase. Epidemiologically, however, an additional concern is that, for unknown reasons, the age-standardized incidence (average individual risk) of fracture has also risen in many populations during the recent decades. Possible reasons for this rise include a birth cohort effect, deterioration in the average bone strength by time, and increased average risk of (serious) falls. Literature provides evidence that the rise is not due to a birth cohort effect, whereas no study shows whether bone fragility has increased during this relatively short period of time. This osteoporosis hypothesis could, however, be tested if researchers would now repeat the population measurements of bone mass and density that were made in the late 1980s and the 1990s. If such studies proved that women's and men's age-standardized mean values of bone mass and density have declined over time, the osteoporosis hypothesis would receive scientific support. The third explanation is based on the hypothesis that the number and/or severity of falls has risen in elderly populations during the recent decades. Although no study has directly tested this hypothesis, a great deal of indirect epidemiologic evidence supports this contention. For example, the age-standardized incidence of fall-induced severe head injuries, bruises and contusions, and joint distortions and dislocations has increased among elderly people similarly to the low-trauma fractures. The fall hypothesis could also be tested in the coming years because the 1990s saw many research teams reporting age- and sex-specific incidences of falling for elderly populations, and the same could be done now to provide data comparing the current incidence rates of falls with the earlier ones.     

染色内镜和放大内镜技术是提高早期大肠癌诊治水平的重要手段

应用常规内镜技术难以发现大肠平坦型病变和凹陷型病变。近年来染色内镜和放大内镜技术已经发展成熟,在国外已获广泛应用,可以发现大肠微小病变和早期大肠癌。应用腺管开口分型方法可以预测肿瘤病变的组织学类型及肿瘤的浸润深度,据此可确定行内镜下粘膜剥离术或分片粘膜剥离术将肿瘤切除,抑或行外科手术治疗。在当前我国的胃肠内镜医疗界,应广泛开展染色内镜和放大内镜的临床应用,以早期发现大肠病变,提高我国大肠癌的内镜诊治水平。
