中医药调控IL-1治疗肿瘤机制的研究进展

炎症已成为影响肿瘤细胞增殖转移的第七大因素,而白细胞介素-1(IL-1)是炎性微环境的重要因子之一。中医药在治疗肿瘤时具有多途径、多靶点的优势,同时炎性微环境致病特点与现代中医学"癌毒"的理论相吻合。查阅近年中医药调控IL-1家族分子治疗肿瘤机制的文献,对其进行梳理,并做出概括及评价,从中医药主要调控IL-1α、IL-1β和IL-18因子治疗肿瘤展开综述,为中医药更系统化治疗肿瘤提供参考。     

COVID-19, chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease and anti-rheumatic treatments

Clinical Rheumatology - Since December 2019, the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) raises a real public health problem. COVID-19 appeared in Wuhan (Hubei province) in China....     

Implant wear induces inflammation, but not osteoclastic bone resorption, in RANK(-/-) mice.

Signaling of RANK (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B) through its ligand RANKL appears critical in osteolysis associated with aseptic loosening (AL). The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of RANK in a murine osteolysis model developed in RANK knockout (RANK(-/-)) mice. Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) debris was introduced into established air pouches on RANK(-/-) mice, followed by implantation of calvaria bone from syngeneic littermates. Wild type C57BL/6 (RANK(+/+)) mice injected with either UHMWPE or saline alone were included in this study. Pouch tissues were collected 14 days after UHMWPE inoculation for molecular and histology analysis. Results showed that UHMWPE stimulation induced strong pouch tissue inflammation in RANK(-/-) mice, as manifested by inflammatory cellular infiltration, pouch tissue proliferation, and increased gene expression of IL-1beta, TNFalpha, and RANKL. However, the UHMWPE-induced inflammation in RANK(-/-) mice was not associated with the osteoclastic bone resorption observed in RANK(+/+) mice. In RANK(+/+) mice subjected to UHMWPE stimulation, a large number of TRAP(+) cells were found on the implanted bone surface, where active osteoclastic bone resorption was observed. No TRAP(+) cells were found in UHMWPE-containing pouch tissues of RANK(-/-) mice. Consistent with the lack of osteoclastic activity shown by TRAP staining, no significant UHMWPE particle-induced bone resorption was found in RANK(-/-) mice. A well preserved bone collagen content (Van Gieson staining) and normal plateau surface contour [microcomputed tomography (microCT)] of implanted bone was observed in RANK(-/-) mice subjected to UHMWPE stimulation. In conclusion, this study provides the evidence that UHMWPE particles induce strong inflammatory responses, but not associated with osteoclastic bone resorption in RANK(-/-) mice. This indicates that RANK signaling is essential for UHMWPE particle-induced osteoclastic bone resorption, but does not participate in UHMWPE particle-induced inflammatory response.     

不同病理类型原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症临床表现的比较分析

目的 分析不同病理类型甲状旁腺功能亢进（PHPT）的临床表现特点。方法 回顾性分析1958-2005年北京协和医院收治经手术病理证实的280例PHPT患者的临床资料。按病理类型分为甲状旁腺腺瘤组208例，甲状旁腺增生组52例及甲状旁腺腺癌组20例。结果 腺癌组中男性高于另外2组（P〈0．05）。增生及腺癌组中骨畸形、骨软化比例较低，增生组骨吸收、病理性骨折比例低于腺瘤组；胃肠道症状、多饮多尿及泌尿系统病变在腺癌组中高于另外2组（P均〈0．05）。血总钙（TCa）、血游离钙离子（ICa）及24h尿Ca在腺癌组显著高于腺瘤组及增生组（P均〈0．01），在腺瘤组与增生组间差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。出现高钙危象的比例在腺癌组显著高于另外2组（P〈0．01）。腺癌组病灶重量高于增生组，腺瘤组病灶直径小于增生组（P均〈0．05）。结论 在本组病例中，腺癌组男性比例较高，泌尿系统病变更为多见，出现高钙危象的比例显著增高，术后复发的比例较高。增生组骨骼系统病变相对较轻，其病变甲状旁腺重量低于腺癌与腺瘤组。     

循证护理学在实践中的应用

循证护理的核心思想是任何护理决策都要建立在临床客观证据的基础上。护理过程中应进一步开展临床试验研究，以提供更好的护理依据。对临床护理工作中存在的同一问题有不同研究结果的情况，要用系统评价的方法进行分析，得出综合可靠的结论。作举例说明循证护理的实施方法。

Bilirubin and the laboratory. Advances in the 1980s, considerations for the 1990s

The limitations of current methods of measuring bilirubin are well established and relate to the broad dynamic range and inability of the technique to determine different but structurally similar bilirubin species. New instrumentation and methodology circumvent these limitations, and clinical studies are beginning to reveal their increased diagnostic usefulness. Nevertheless, in several clinical situations, for example, the prediction of kernicterus, better bilirubin determinations may not eliminate the controversy surrounding appropriate therapeutic interventions.     

132例男性不育患者遗传学病因分析

目的：对男性不育患者进行遗传学病因分析，并探讨其遗传效应。方法：采取132例男性不育患者外周血进行染色体核型分析。结果：132例男性不育患者中，染色体异常24例，染色体变异22例。其中大Y20例，47，XXY18例，45．XY，t(13；14)3例，小Y和46，XY，inv(9)各2例，46，XY，t(9；22)1例。结论：染色体异常是男性不育的重要原因，并建议男性不育患者进行基因诊断，以便确诊是否属于遗传病，为生育提供指导，避免盲目治疗。     

Partial purification and osteoinductive activity of swine bone morphogenetic protein.

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) was isolated from the bone matrix of swine and partially purified by means of differential precipitation and molecular sieve chromatography. The molecular weight of BMP estimated by SDS-gel electrophoresis was 19,000 dalton. Bioassay by implanting two milligrams of BMP fraction into thigh muscles of mice resulted in bone formation in 100% of the experimental animals.
