99mTc-DTPA核素肾动态显像评价主动脉夹层患者术后肾功能受损研究

目的:应用99mTc-DTPA肾动脉显像评价Stanford不同分型主动脉夹层患者术后左、右侧肾功能及总体肾功能受损程度,帮助临床制定进一步的治疗方案,改善患者预后。方法:回顾性分析2018年3月8日至2019年7月19日,在本院核医学科行99mTc-DTPA肾动态显像的主动脉夹层术后患者48例,评价患者双肾血流灌注、总肾小球滤过率(GFR)和分肾的GFR,比较Stanford主动脉夹层A型(简称A型)患者和主动脉夹层B型(简称B型)患者之间总肾功能及分肾功能,血肌酐、血尿素氮及血尿酸水平的差异。结果:B型患者术后总GFR低于A型患者(67.5 vs.80.6 m L/min,P<0.05),其中以左肾功能受损为著(30.9 vs.40.3 m L/min,P<0.05),差异有统计学意义。结论:肾动态显像对主动脉夹层术后患者早期评价肾功能有重要价值。主动脉夹层B型患者GFR较A型减低,且左侧肾GFR减低更明显,临床可以早期采取干预措施,改善主动脉夹层患者预后。     

从温阳透发法论治难治性痤疮

痤疮可辨为阴、阳两证。阳疮者,缘患者劳汗被寒、玄府闭合,汗脂凝聚日久不得外排,蕴热搏结气血而生疮化腐,疮症为热为痛,此为易治;阴疮者,由阳疮转化而来,缘患者外感寒风、内伤生冷,且医者又重用寒凉、失于托透,以至气血冰凝,久不溃脓或溃脓难出,此为难治。根据难治性痤疮临床表现,其多类属于阴疮,以阳虚表郁、邪闭毛窍为致病之关键,其中表郁毛窍、邪闭肌腠为病之标,阳虚阴凝为病之本。治疗当以温阳透发、祛邪外达为法。以麻黄附子细辛汤温阳化阴滞、发阳透毒治其本,待阴邪发越,即用火针强开门户、消疮排脓治其标。标本兼治、针药结合的方法治疗难治性痤疮在临床中能够安全有效地消除痤疮、改善皮损、降低复发率。     

Primary Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death: Can We Afford the Cost of Cardioverter-Defibrillators? Data from the Search-MI Registry-Italian Sub-study

Background: Large randomized trials show that in appropriately selected patients with left ventricular dysfunction, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can improve overall survival at 2–5 years. Since direct implementation of the criteria used in the MADIT II and SCD-HeFT will lead to a marked rise in ICD implants, there is a growing fear that increased use of ICDs may cause a dramatic burden to health care systems. The ICD has traditionally been seen as an expensive form of treatment, which is difficult to accept at the first look. This is mainly due to the nonlinear character of the ICD investment, characterized by high initial expenditure, followed by a deferred pay-off in terms of clinical benefits. Cost-effectiveness analysis may help provide a different perspective on the problem of ICD cost, as may estimation of the daily cost of ICD treatment, assuming a time horizon of 5–7 years—a particularly interesting subject for further registry studies.
Methods and Results: Based on real expenditure data from 2002 to 2005, as recorded in the Search-MI Registry-Italian Sub-study of patients implanted on MADIT II indications, we estimated the daily costs associated with the device and leads. Over a 5–7 year time horizon, the average daily cost was estimated to be €4.60–€6.70. Translation of these figures into U.S. market conditions suggests a daily cost of around $7.90–$11.40.
Conclusions: These findings appear useful to help evaluate the affordability of ICD in comparison with other therapeutic options in a context of limited available economic resources.     

膀胱移行细胞癌P16、P15、P14基因5＇CpG岛甲基化检测

目的 探讨P16、P15、P14基因5＇CpG岛在膀胱移行细胞癌中甲基化状态及其临床意义。方法 应用甲基化特异性PCR（methylation—specific PCR，MSP）方法检测40例膀胱移行细胞癌P16、P15、P14基因甲基化程度，χ^2检验分析其甲基化程度与膀胱癌病理分级分期间关系。结果 膀胱移行细胞癌P16、P15、P14 5＇CpG岛甲基化扩增阳性化率分别为27．5％、17．5％、35％，而正常膀胱组织中均未检测到三种基因5＇CpG岛甲基化。P16、P14基因甲基化与膀胱癌病理分级分期有显著性差异（P〈0．05），P15基因则没有显著性差异（P〉0．05）。结论 P16、P15、P14基因在膀胱癌组织中的甲基化率较高，三种抑癌基因5＇CpG岛异常高甲基化，在膀胱癌的发生、发展中具有重要作用。     

听觉诱发电位指数、脑电双频指数对异丙酚麻醉下患者术中体动反应的预测

目的评价听觉诱发电位指数(AAI)、脑电双频指数(BIS)预测异丙酚麻醉下患者术中体动反应的可能性。方法择期行妇科手术全麻患者28例,ASAⅠ或Ⅱ级,年龄24-62岁,体重46- 71 kg,术前2 h口服咪达唑仑10 mg,入室后以血浆靶浓度3．5μg/ml靶控输注异丙酚、静脉注射芬太尼2μg／kg及维库溴铵0．1 mg／kg麻醉诱导,气管插管后,调整异丙酚血浆靶浓度维持BIS 40-60。切皮后不再追加肌松剂,观察患者术中头面部及四肢的体动反应,记录体动反应发生前、后2min内BIS、AAI的最大值(BISmax、AAImax)及此时段内BIS>75、AAI>40的次数及出现时间。记录术中当BIS>75、AAI>40时前、后2 min内有无体动反应发生及发生时间。结果12例出现体动反应,体动前、后2 min内BISmax为63±16(4例BIS>75,33．3％),AAImax为48±11(12例AAI>40,100％)。麻醉维持过程中,出现14次BIS>75,并发体动反应4次(28．5％),BIS反应时间较体动时间滞后(84±19)s;出现AAI>40者28次,并发体动者12次(42．8％),AAI反应时间较体动时间滞后(13±3)s。结论异丙酚麻醉下BIS、AAI反应时间较体动发生时间滞后,不能预测术中体动反应的发生。     

Analysis and management of chronic testicular pain

A total of 45 patients was seen in consultation between May 1980 and April 1989 for chronic unilateral or bilateral orchialgia, defined as intermittent or constant testicular pain 3 months or longer in duration that significantly interferes with the daily activities of the patient so as to prompt him to seek medical attention. We analyzed 34 patients available for followup in terms of socioeconomic parameters, etiology and duration of pain, associated urological symptomatology, specific treatment and results of therapy. Of the patients 31 underwent surgical treatment after failing medical management (24 orchiectomies, 10 epididymectomies, 5 orchiopexies and 1 hydrocelectomy). Of 10 patients who underwent epididymectomy 9 underwent subsequent orchiectomy as definitive treatment. Of 15 patients who underwent inguinal orchiectomy 11 (73%) reported complete relief of pain, while 4 had partial relief. Of the 9 patients who underwent scrotal orchiectomy 5 (55%) reported complete relief of pain, 3 had partial relief and 1 denied improvement. On the basis of these results we recommend inguinal orchiectomy as the procedure of choice for the management of chronic testicular pain when conservative measures are unsuccessful.
