Abnormal intragastric distribution of food (IDF) and a phasic contractility in the proximal stomach have been related to dyspeptic symptoms. Thus, the behaviour of the stomach and the proximal region, in particular, continues to attract attention and demand for reliable and comfortable techniques. The aims of this study were to employ AC Biosusceptometry (ACB) and scintigraphy to evaluate IDF and gastric motor activity in humans. Fifteen healthy volunteers ingested 60 mL of yogurt containing 2 mCi of 99mTc and 4 g of ferrite. Each volunteer had gastric motility and IDF evaluated twice on separate days; on one occasion by ACB and another by scintigraphy. Digital signal processing was performed in MatLab (Mathworks Inc., Natick, MA, USA). Results were expressed as mean +/- SD. Similar results of distal accumulation time (P < 0.001) were obtained for scintigraphy (6.93 +/- 3.25 min) and for ACB (7.04 +/- 3.65 min). Fast Fourier Transform revealed two dominant frequencies (P > 0.9). Besides the well-know frequency of 3 cpm, our results showed identical frequencies in proximal stomach recordings (P < 0.001) for scintigraphic (1.01 +/- 0.01 cpm) and ACB (0.98 +/- 0.06 cpm). In summary, our data showed that scintigraphy and ACB are promising techniques to evaluate several aspects of gastric motility. Moreover, ACB is non-invasive, radiation-free and deserves the same importance as conventional methods for this kind of analysis. 相似文献

In patients with either lateral tracking patella or unstable patella the pathological lateral position of the tuberosity can be corrected by a medial transfer. This study compared the results of subtle CT-guided correction of the tuberosity for objective unstable patella (n=27) with the results for lateral tracking patella (potential instability) as described by Dejour (n=16). Follow-up was 37 months. CT revealed a pathological lateralization of the tibial tuberosity–trochlear groove greater than 15 mm in 41 knees. These patients underwent medialization of the tibial tuberosity up to 10–12 mm lateral from the trochlear groove, and 28 patients underwent a distalization to normalize the Caton index to 1.0–1.2. Results were evaluated using Cox' method. Patients with objective patellar instability were rated as 11% excellent, 52% good, 33% fair, and 4% poor. All patients became stable except one who had a 6° valgus alignment. Although 96% had improved stability, 33% of the patients still had pain. The patients with lateral tracking patella (potential instability) were rated as 37.5% excellent, 44% good, and 19% fair. The lower proportion of pain relief in patients with unstable patella is likely the result of the cartilage damage experienced by these patients following multiple dislocations. Thus the patient with lateral tracking patella without patella dislocations must be differentiated from the one with unstable patella. Their prognosis in pain relief is better. 相似文献

Abstract Gastric suctioning is common in neonatal intensive care units. Studies suggest that gastric suctioning in premature infants may play a role in the development of visceral hyperalgesia. We hypothesized that repeated orogastric suctioning during the neonatal period results in chronic alterations in visceral and somatic sensation through a corticotropin-releasing factor mediated mechanism. Neonatal male Long Evans rats (n = 13) received daily orogastric suctioning for 10 days starting at postnatal day two (P2). Control rats (n = 15) were handled similarly without orogastric suction. A second study group was subjected to a similar protocol, only with pre-emptive administration of a CRF1 receptor antagonist (antalarmin, 20 mg/kg, IP) (n = 8). The control group received vehicle only (n = 8). An additional group was given antalarmin without suctioning (n = 5). After these rats grew to adulthood (PN 60), a visceromotor response to graded colorectal distension was recorded (10-80 mmHg, 30s, 180s inter-stimulus intervals) to assess changes in visceral sensitivity. Paw withdrawal latency to noxious heat applied to the hind paws was measured to assess changes in cutaneous sensitivity. Orogastric suctioning during the neonatal period results in global chronic somatic and visceral hyperalgesia in adult rats. Visceral hyperalgesia is prevented by pre-emptive administration of the CRF1 receptor antagonist, antalarmin. 相似文献

Background Cannabinoids acutely administered depress central, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal functions. These effects might be modified upon repeated administration. Compared to the effects induced by daily administration, those induced by intermittent administration are less known. The effect of intermittent treatment with the CB1/CB2 cannabinoid agonist WIN55,212‐2 (WIN) was studied in the rat. Methods Male rats received saline, vehicle or WIN at 0.5 (low‐WIN) or 5 (high‐WIN) mg kg?1 week?1 for 4 weeks. WIN effects on the central nervous system (cannabinoid tetrad tests), cardiovascular function and gastrointestinal motor function were evaluated after the first and last doses, and, where appropriate, 1 week after the last dose. To determine the involvement of CB1 receptors in the chronic effect of WIN, the CB1 receptor antagonist/inverse agonist AM251 (1 mg kg?1) was used. Key Results High‐ (but not low‐) WIN induced the four signs of the cannabinoid tetrad, and reduced gastrointestinal motility, but did not alter cardiovascular parameters. Upon chronic intermittent administration, tolerance did not clearly develop to WIN effects. Quite the opposite, depression of gastric emptying was intensified. No effect was long‐lasting. Repeated administration of AM251 was more efficacious than single administration to block WIN chronic central effects, but the opposite occurred regarding lower intestinal motility. Conclusions & Inferences Upon intermittent administration, hypersensitization may develop to some effects (particularly delayed gastric emptying) induced by cannabinoid agonists. CB1 antagonists/inverse agonists may show different efficacy upon repeated or single administration to block cannabinoid‐induced central and gastrointestinal effects. Thus, cannabinoid effects are dependent on the pattern of drug administration. 相似文献

Are age references for waist circumference,hip circumference and waist-hip ratio in Dutch children useful in clinical practice? 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The aim of this study was to present age references for waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and waist/hip ratio (WHR) in Dutch children. Cross-sectional data were obtained from 14,500 children of Dutch origin in the age range 0–21 years. National references were constructed with the LMS method. This method summarises the distribution by three smooth curves representing skewness (L curve), the median (M curve), and coefficient of variation (S curve). The correlations between body mass index-standard deviation score (BMI-SDS), the circumferences and their ratio, and demographic variables were assessed by (multiple) regression analysis for three age groups: 0-<5 years (1), 5-<12.5 years (2), and 12.5-<21 years (3). A cut-off for clinical use was suggested based on the International Obesity Task Force criteria for BMI. Mean WC and HC values increased with age. Mean WC was slightly higher in boys than in girls, and this difference was statistically significant from 11 years of age onwards. In contrast, HC was significantly higher in girls than in boys from 9 years onwards. The correlation between WC-SDS and BMI-SDS ( r =0.73, P <0.01) and between HC and BMI-SDS ( r =0.67, P <0.01) increased with age. With regard to WHR-SDS, a low correlation was found for 12.5–20 years of age ( r =0.2, P <0.01). WC-SDS correlated positively with height SDS ( r =0.35, P <0.01). Conclusion:Waist circumferences can be used to screen for increased abdominal fat mass in children, whereby a cut-off point of 1.3 standard deviation score seems most suitable. 相似文献

Motility patterns play a major role in human colonic functions; however, its physiological significance is poorly understood. Several studies have been introducing the Alternating Current Biosusceptometry (ACB) as a valuable tool in gastroenterology and pharmaceutical research. Using gold standard techniques, great effort has been made to validate ACB as a method for measuring gastrointestinal motility in humans and animals. The aim of this study was to evaluate caecocolonic motility and its response to a meal in healthy volunteers. The results showed a dominant frequency of 3.17 +/- 0.13 cycles per minute (mean +/- SD) that remained unchanged even after a standardized meal (P > 0.01). The colonic response to a meal was recorded as a considerable increase in amplitude, reflected by motility index (P < 0.01) and was observed for all the volunteers. The caecocolonic motility could be assessed by the ACB providing new insights into physiological patterns of motility. Moreover, the method is non-invasive, radiation-free, cost-effective and independent of bowel preparation. 相似文献
