妊娠性肝内胆汁淤积症：一项地塞米松和熊脱氧胆酸的随机、对照试验

妊娠性肝内胆汁淤积症（ICP）的主要特征是：母体难以忍受的瘙痒症，血清胆汁酸升高（≥10μmol／L）以及胎儿死亡风险的增加。最近，确定了一个与影响胎儿损害相关的界值，即血清胆汁酸≥40μmol／L。在一项双盲、安慰剂对照试验中，作研究了熊脱氧胆酸（UDCA）和地塞米松对瘙痒症、胆汁淤积的生化指标和胎儿并发症发生率的影响。为此，选取了130例患有ICP的妇女，随机分到UDCA组（1g／d，使用3周），地塞米松组（12mg／d使用1周，第2周、第3周使用安慰剂）和安慰剂组（使用3周）进行治疗。在治疗期间和治疗3周后对瘙痒症和胆汁淤积的生化指标进行分析。在分娩时记录胎儿的并发症（自发性早产，新生儿窒息，羊水、胎盘、胎膜的胎粪染色）。意向治疗分析显示仅在UDCA组中，丙氨酸转氨酶（ALT）（P=0．01）和胆红素（P=0．002）明显减少。在血清胆汁酸≥40μmol／L的ICP妇女的亚群分析中发现（n=34）UDCA对瘙痒症（减轻75％）、胆汁酸（下降79％）、ALT（降低80％）和胆红素（降低50％）也有明显效果，但对胎儿并发症发生率无影响。地塞米松并无减轻瘙痒症或降低ALT的作用，在降低胆汁酸和胆红素方面比UDCA效果差。     

宫腹腔镜联合手术诊治不孕症150例分析

目的:探讨宫腹腔镜联合手术在诊治不孕症中的应用。方法:对150例不孕症患者行宫腹腔镜联合手术,对不孕症病因进行诊断,同时行治疗。结果:盆腔粘连和输卵管阻塞是不孕症的主要原因。子宫内膜息肉和正常盆腔占次要比例。子宫内膜异位症和多囊卵巢也是主要病因。150例同时行宫腹腔镜输卵管通液和各种疾病的治疗。联合手术后妊娠率为48.8%。结论:腹腔镜联合手术,在一次麻醉下,可以对不孕的原因全面评价和明确诊断,在诊断同时进行治疗,对不孕症的诊断和治疗有重大的意义,值得推广。     

Acute respiratory distress during Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia A probable case of anaphylactoid reaction to Syntocinon

A case of life-threatening respiratory distress during a Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia is reported. Possible causes of the event including anaphylactoid reactions and the methods of their diagnosis are discussed. The most likely cause of the episode was felt to be an anaphylactoid reaction to Syntocinon.     

The Rigiflex TTS: A New Method to Dilate Benign Esophageal Stenosis

Abstract: This paper dicusses the use of esophageal dilatation with a Rigiflex TTS balloon. This method was used 45 times on 11 patients affected by anastomotic or a severe grade peptic esophageal stenosis. Fluoroscopic guidance was used in 36 procedures (80%) without effecting the mean duration of the treatment (12 minutes). The results were considered satisfactory when these goals had been achieved: a) dilatation of the stenosis over 15 mm; b) a dysphagia free-time of more than 6 months. A satisfactory result was achieved in 10 patients (90.9%), without deaths and major complications. 5 patients received 1 dilatation and the other 5 needed, 3-3-4-7–11 procedures respectively to obtain a satisfactory result. On these basis we consider that its great efficacy, security and tolerability depend on the following characteristics of the Rigiflex TTS balloon: 1) “radial” dilatation; 2) the possibility of introducing the balloon through the operative channel of the fiberscope; 3) direct visualization of the stenosis during dilatation. The following disadvantages with this method are: the absence of a tactile sensation of dilatation and the elevated cost of the instrument. We conclude that the Rigiflex TTS balloon is an important alternative to guide-wire techniques, especially for the treatment of severe esophageal strictures.     

妊娠肝内胆汁淤积症患者血清一氧化氮和内皮素的变化及意义

目的：探讨妊娠肝内胆汁淤积症（ICP）患者外周静脉血清、新生儿脐静脉血清中一氧化氮（NO）、内皮素（ET）、丙二醛（MDA）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）含量的变化及在ICP发病中的作用。方法：以ICP组28例为研究组，测定其外周静脉血清及新生儿脐静脉血清中的NO、ET、MDA和SOD，以年龄相近的24例正常孕妇作为对照组。结果：ICP患者的MDA和ET含量较正常晚期妊娠显著增高（P＜0．01），ICP患者的NO和SOD含量与对照组相比无显著性差异（P＞0．05）。母血清中NO、ET、MDA含量均较新生儿脐静脉血清中的含量高，差异有显著性（P＜0．01）。结论：妊娠期体内氧化和抗氧化失衡及ET水平的增高可能与ICP的发生、发展有关。     

Variation in dietary fibre, beta-glucan, starch, protein, fat and hull content of oats grown in Sweden 1987-1989.

Samples of oat groat from cultivars grown in Sweden during 3 years (1987-1989, 50 samples/year) were investigated. On an average, the kernels contained 15.9% protein, 7.0% fat, 9.7% dietary fibre and 63.2% starch (% of dry matter). The coefficient of variation was highest for fat (26%) and lowest for starch (7%). The thousand kernel weight was on average 34.7 g. The content of dietary fibre and fat was significantly negatively correlated and the starch positively correlated with the thousand kernel weight. The samples contained mean (and range) 9.7% (5.0-13.4) total dietary fibre, 3.5% (2.0-5.0) soluble dietary fibre, and 4.6% (3.5-5.7) beta-glucan. The beta-glucan content was significantly positively correlated with insoluble and total dietary fibre as well as with the fat content, and significantly negatively correlated with starch.
