Abstract Gastric emptying of a digestible solid and liquid meal and oesophageal emptying of a solid bolus were measured with scintigraphic techniques in 45 randomly selected insulin-dependent diabetics and in 22 control subjects. In the diabetics, the relationships between oesophageal emptying, gastric emptying, age, duration of diabetes mellitus, upper gastrointestinal symptoms, glycaemic control and the complications, autonomic neuropathy, peripheral neuropathy and retinopathy were examined. The lag period before solid food left the stomach was not significantly different in diabetics compared with control subjects, but the percentage retention of solid food at 100 min was greater ( P < 0.001) in the diabetic subjects. Both the early phase (percentage retention at 10 min) and the 50% emptying time for liquid gastric emptying were delayed ( P < 0.001) in the diabetic subjects. Of the diabetics, 58% had delayed gastric emptying of either the solid and/or the liquid meal; oesophageal emptying was delayed in 42%. Upper gastrointestinal symptoms correlated poorly with both gastric and oesophageal emptying. Oesophageal emptying, solid gastric emptying and the liquid 50% emptying time correlated with the severity of autonomic nerve dysfunction ( P < 0.05). The early phase of liquid emptying (retention at 10 min) was significantly slower ( P < 0.05) in patients with mean plasma glucose concentrations of > 15 mmol/l during the gastric emptying test and the lag period for solid emptying correlated with both the glycosylated haemoglobin and mean plasma glucose concentrations. 相似文献

The best oxygen therapy for acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) remains unestablished. Reported mitochondrial complex IV (mtCIV) inhibition, together with carboxyhaemoglobin (COHb)-induced hypoxia, may influence acute clinical symptoms and outcome. To “mitochondrially” evaluate treatment efficacy, we correlated intoxication severity and symptoms with mitochondrial function (mtCIV activity) and oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation) in 60 poisoned patients and determined ACOP recovery depending on either normobaric or hyperbaric oxygen therapy along a 3-month follow-up. In the present article we positively evaluate mtCIV as a good marker of ACOP recovery, treatment effectiveness, and late neurological syndrome development, which advocates for hyperbaric oxygen therapy as the treatment of choice. However, we discourage its usefulness as a severity marker because of its excessive sensitivity. We additionally evaluate oxidative stress role and prognostic factors for neurological sequelae development. 相似文献

Many different methods of image guidance are available for radiotherapy treatment (IGRT). The aims of the study were (1) to determine the optimal diameter of gold markers for IGRT to the prostate; (2) to compare, using the Siemens Primatom, the relative merits of in-room computerized tomography (CT) and electronic portal image (EPI) for locating the marker seeds. Gold markers of differing widths were embedded in 2 phantoms (perspex slabs and anthropomorphic). Images were acquired with an amorphous silicon flat panel detector (Siemens Optivue 500) and with the in-room CT scanner (Siemens Somatom Balance). The EPIs were reviewed independently by 6 operators to determine which diameter marker could be best visualized. The optimal marker technique was determined by comparing the investigators' observed marker co-ordinates with the known locations within the phantom. The visibility of all markers on anterior-posterior EPIs was 100%. On the lateral EPI, of a possible 180 visualizations of 1.2-, 1.0-, and 0.8-mm diameter markers, 176 (97.8%), 151 (83.9%), and 132 (73.3%), respectively, were successful. On EPI, the average deviation of fiducial markers from the known position was less than 0.5 mm in any direction. On CT, the largest deviation (2.17 mm) of markers from the known coordinate position was in the superior-inferior direction, reflecting the 3.0-mm slice thickness used. EPI accurately located internal markers in all dimensions. The availability of “gold standard” CT imagery at the treatment unit does not improve how accurately the position of markers in a phantom can be defined compared with EPI. However, CT imagery does provide important soft tissue information, the benefits of which are being investigated further. 相似文献

Recent studies have shown 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated modulation of the immune system. We examined lymphocyte subpopulations of 16 children with nutritional rickets. Most of the patients suffered more frequent infection episodes than the control group of 15 healthy children and low serum levels of 25OHD and 1,25(OH)2D, such as 38.2 ± 8.6 ng/mL and 15.7 ± 2.6 pg/mL respectively. This decrease correlated with a significant decrease in total T lymphocytes and an increase in B lymphocytes expressing surface IgA, IgM, IgG molecules. These results suggest that vitamin D plays an important role in the impaired functions of T lymphocytes which may lead to frequent infection episodes in nutritional rickets. 相似文献

In this analysis of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in 21,330 consecutively included patients with AMI, we found an incidence of stroke after AMI of 1.2% and a very poor prognosis. Previous stroke, atrial fibrillation, and older age were the strongest predictors of stroke after AMI; thrombolysis was a borderline risk factor and early therapy with aspirin was associated with a reduction in stroke after AMI. 相似文献

Although the pathogenesis of steroid-responsive nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is obscure, involvement of an immune mechanism is often suggested. Further evidence of an immune basis for this disorder is an increased frequency of specific major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens. In the first part of this study, the phenotypic frequency of HLA-A, -B, -C, -DR antigens were investigated in 30 children with SRNS and in 630 controls. In the second part, total T (CD3+ cells) and B lymphocytes (CD19+ cells) and the lymphocyte subsets (CD4+, CD8+ cells and their ratio) were studied in the same patients and in 30 healthy children. The investigations of all the patients were performed during the acute stage and 14 of 30 during remission stage. Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) were determined by standard microlymphocytotoxicity assay and lymphocytes were analyzed by flow cytometry. Human leukocyte antigens A3, DR4, DR7 and the haplotype HLA-A2/B12 showed the strongest association with SRNS. In the studies for cellular immune disorder, CD3+ and CD8+ cells were found to be decreased significantly in the acute stage before beginning steroid therapy. No significant difference in lymphocyte subsets was observed in the remission stage without steroid or immunosuppressive therapy. 相似文献
