Partially de-epithelialised and buried V-Y advancement flap for reconstruction of sacrococcygeal and ischial defects.

Defects in the sacrococcygeal and ischial soft tissues can be treated with gluteus maximus and posterior thigh V-Y advancement flaps. However, late complications include recurrence and dehiscence of the suture line. Increasing the amount of the soft tissues over the bony prominences and multilayered closure may have an advantage for long-term durability. We modified the V-Y advancement technique by de-epithelialising the medial parts of the flap and burying them under the opposing edge of the wound or the flap. Sixteen patients with various defects of the sacrococcygeal and ischial soft tissues were operated on using this technique. All the flaps healed well with no partial or complete loss of the flap. Three patients developed complications. The main advantage of our technique is the use of healthy tissues to obliterate the dead spaces under the edges of the wound or the opposing flap. In this way, not only the defect in the skin but the defect in the subcutaneous tissue, with its iceberg tip at the surface, is treated effectively. To have an additional layer of tissue between the bone and the superficial tissues provides an extra cushion of soft tissue and avoids putting the suture line directly over the bony prominences. We used this modification safely for both unilateral and bilateral flaps. It could also be used successfully in other parts of the body.

腹茧症合并不孕七例临床分析

目的探讨腹茧症合并不孕的病因和诊治方法。方法对1996年至2005年因不孕施行腹部手术中发现的7例腹茧症患者进行回顾性分析。结果7例患者均为原发、管性不孕。其共同特点为,术中见多重疏松、灰白色的纤维膜状组织包裹于肠管间隙及盆腔脏器,手术分离困难。结论腹茧症引起的不孕可能为纤维膜包裹输卵管,使其丧失活动度,伞端封闭,无法完成捡拾和输送卵子的功能或包裹卵巢,使其排卵障碍而不能受孕。术后"假性囊肿"或"包裹性积液"易复发。     

汉族、哈萨克族Graves病患者血清CoL IV、LN和HA测定分析

用放免法(单克隆抗体)测定汉、哈萨克族Graves病未经治疗患者66例及正常对照组55例血清中Ⅳ型胶原(CoLⅣ)、板层素(IN)和透明质酸(HA),结果Graves病患者血清CoLⅣ、LN浓度明显升高,HA浓度明显降低,与正常对照组相比均有显著性差异(分别P<0.001、P<0.05、P<0.05),汉族与哈萨克族患者之间、对照组之间相比均无显著性差异(P>0.05),它反映了Graves病患者体内基底膜合成和分解代谢紊乱。     

Effect of clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam on three different beta-lactamases from Bacteroides uniformis, Clostridium butyricum and Fusobacterium nucleatum.

The effect of three beta-lactamase inhibitors, clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam used in clinical practice were compared for their activity against purified beta-lactamases from Bacteroides uniformis, Clostridium butyricum and Fusobacterium nucleatum. The enzymes from B. uniformis and C. butyricum were produced in fermenters under controlled growth conditions and the enzyme from F. nucleatum was produced in batch cultures. Purification of the beta-lactamases was achieved by anion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration and FPLC-technique. The degree of inactivation of beta-lactamase activity was determined spectrophotometrically with nitrocefin as the substrate. The inhibitors in various concentrations were preincubated at 30 degrees C together with the enzyme for different time periods (0.5-120 min) before determination of the remaining beta-lactamase activity. The inhibitors all decreased the activity of the beta-lactamases investigated. Clavulanic acid and sulbactam were capable of reducing the enzyme activity of the B. uniformis beta-lactamase more effectively than the C. butyricum and F. nucleatum beta-lactamases. All beta-lactamases tested were more susceptible to tazobactam than to clavulanic acid and sulbactam.     

Effects of the rate and composition of fluid replacement on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of intravenous furosemide

Effects of differences in the rate and composition of intravenous fluid replacement for urine loss on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of furosemide were evaluated using the dog as a model animal. Each of six dogs received 8-hr constant intravenous infusion of 20 mg (15 mg used in one dog) of furosemide with 0% replacement (treatment I), 50% replacement (treatment II), and 100% replacement (treatment III) with lactated Ringer's solution, as well as with 100% replacement with 5% dextrose in water (treatment IV). Most pharmacokinetic parameters, such as plasma clearance, steady-state volume of distribution, mean residence time, and terminal half-life, were essentially the same in all four treatments. Renal clearances and urinary excretion rates of the drug in treatments II–IVwere essentially the same, but about 20% higher than those in treatment I.In spite of the similarities in kinetic properties, diuretic and/or natriuretic effects from furosemide were markedly different among the four treatments. For example, mean 10-hr urine outputs were 646, 1046, 3156, and 1976 ml and mean 10-hr sodium excretions were 87.0, 142, 383, and 97.2 mmole for treatments I–IV,respectively. Except for treatment III,diuresis and/or natriuresis were found to be time-dependent, generally decreasing with time until reaching a low plateau during later hours of infusion. The present findings also showed that (1)no fluid replacement and 100% replacement with 5% dextrose solution both produced the same degree of severe acute tolerance in natriuresis, indicating the insignificance of water compensation in tolerance development; (2)in treatment II,where neutral sodium balance was achieved, the development of acute tolerance in diuresis and natriuresis can mainly be attributed to negative water balance under this special condition; (3)at steady state the hourly diuresis and natriuresis could differ up to about ten times between treatments. Some implications for the kinetic/dynamic relationship or modeling, in the clinical use, and in the bioequivalence evaluation of dosage forms are discussed.     

Chlamydial infections and male infertility

Chlamydial infections may be difficult to diagnose due to the silent symptoms and difficulty in culturing. An infectious process may impair fertility by adversely affecting sperm functions, resulting in testicular damage or causing obstruction of the genital tract. In our study, we tried to find Chlamydial antigen by using EIA (Enzyme Immune Assay) and to compare the Ag(+) and Ag(−) groups according to semen parameters. Except for semen volume, we found significant differences in density, morphology, motility and viability (intervolume p>0.05, interdensity p<0.01, intermorphology p<0.001, intermotility p<0.001 and interviability p<0.001).     

A case of pemphigus vulgaris possibly triggered by quinolones

Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering disorder in which both genetic and environmental factors, mainly drugs, are thought to play a part in its aetiopathogenesis. Although some drugs that contain thiol groups, such as D-penicillamine and captopril, and non-thiol drugs, such as cephalosporin, have been reported to trigger or induce pemphigus, there are no previous reports regarding the influence of quinolones in triggering this disease. Here we present a case of pemphigus possibly triggered by quinolones.     

Delay of cranial bone regeneration by CO2 and Nd-YAG laser application: an experimental study related to craniosynostosis

In this study we have investigated the negative influence of CO₂ and Nd-YAG laser irradiation on rapid cranial regeneration and whether it has any use in certain types of craniosynostosis. Twenty-two newborn rats were used in the study. Both CO₂ and Nd-YAG laser irradiation, which was applied to free bony edges after, suturectomies, resulted in a significant decrease in skull regeneration. Histopathological examinations revealed severe degeneration caused by both types of laser energies.
