OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effects of thyroxine (T4) therapy on the cardiac function in subclinical hypothyroidism (SHT) by using the index of myocardial performance (IMP) and the conventional echocardiographic parameters. METHODS: Forty-five SHT patients (F/M:38/7, age 39.9+/-7.9) and 29 healthy subjects (F/M:25/4, age 38.3+/-8.6) were studied. Patients were randomly assigned, in a double-blind manner to receive T4 therapy (group I) or a placebo (group II) and for a period of up to 12 months, were followed up using thyroid function tests and both conventional and Doppler echocardiographic measurements. RESULTS: At the baseline, the SHT patients has a significantly higher isovolumic relaxation time (IRT) (98.3+/-23.7 vs. 81.7+/-14.7<0.01), IMP (0.52+/-0.06 vs. 0.42+/-0.05; P<0.001), A max (late mitral peak velocity) (83.4+/-12.6 vs. 74.3+/-13.5; P<0.01) and significantly lower (early mitral peak velocity) Emax/Amax ratio (1.19+/-0.18 vs. 1.34+/-0.17; P<0.01) than the individuals in the control group. In group I, the thyroid hormone profile became normalized after 1 year of L-T4 therapy, but there was no significant change in the left ventricular (LV) morphology or systolic function. After 1 year of follow-up, group I showed a significant reduction of MPI (0.53+/-0.05 vs. 0.42+/-0.07; P<0.001), Amax (84.2+/-13.7 vs. 74.5+/-11; P<0.001) and IRT (98.6+/-23.7 vs. 82.9+/- 23.3; P<0.001) along with a normalization of the E/A ratio (1.17+/-0.16 vs. 1.33+/-0.19; P<0.001). Conversely, no change was observed in group II. CONCLUSIONS: An impairment of left ventricular diastolic function, which may be reversible with T4 therapy, was observed in the SHT patients, and IMP may be useful in the evaluation of LV myocardial dysfunction in these patients. 相似文献

A psoas abscess is, either primary or secondary, a rare entity for a general surgeon. Images by ultrasonography and computed
tomography (CT) can help a general surgeon to make an accurate diagnosis when encountering the patient complaining of unilateral
lower abdominal deep pain with fever. A case of pyogenic abscess of the psoas muscle as a result of sacroiliitis in a 22-year-old
man is reported herein. The abdominal CT and magnetic resonance imaging scans demonstrated a large multilocular abscess extending
along the iliopsoas muscle, and erosion and a widening of the left sacroiliac joint. The abscess was drained with an open
surgical approach and the patient responded well to antibiotic therapy. Aggressive surgical and medical treatment is necessary
in patients with psoas abscess to prevent complications.

Retroperitoneal benign schwannoma: report of three cases and analysis of clinico-radiologic findings
Dede M Yagci G Yenen MC Gorgulu S Deveci MS Cetiner S Dilek S 《The Tohoku journal of experimental medicine》2003,200(2):93-97
Retroperitoneal schwannoma is a rare tumor that originates in the neural sheath and accounts for only a small percentage of retroperitoneal tumors. Presentation is typically varied and non-specific ranging from abdominal pain, abdominal mass or an incidental finding and the diagnosis is quite often fortuitous being confirmed by anatomopathological study afterwards. We report 3 cases of benign retroperitoneal pelvic schwannoma with varied presentations. Main symptoms were abdominal and pelvic pain whereas a patient with left parailiac mass had urinary incontinence and left lower extremity pain. Surgical exploration and complete excision of tumors were successful. The histological diagnosis of the tumors was reported as benign schwannoma. All patients are doing well and had no symptoms of motor or sensory disturbances after surgery with a mean follow up of 18 mounts. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Acute pancreatitis is an important and fatal disease with high mortality and morbidity. Although the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis is poorly understood, there are many studies that suggest the role for oxygen free radicals (OFRs) in the development of pancreatitis and its complications and show beneficial effects of scavenger treatment. In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether Egb761, the standardized extract of gingko biloba, restrains the generation of OFRs and ameliorates the histopathologic findings of acute pancreatitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned to one of the following experimental groups. In early and late pancreatitis and treatment groups, acute pancreatitis was induced by retrograde infusion of 3% sodium taurocholate. In treatment groups, 100 mg/kg Egb 761 was given intraperitoneally (IP) 24 h and immediately before induction of pancreatitis. Sham-operated rats received isotonic saline instead of sodium taurocholate. After observation times of 3.5 and 12 h, the pancreas was removed for light microscopy and determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) levels as a marker for OFRs-induced lipid peroxidation. Serum samples also were obtained for amylase and lipase levels. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in control and sham-operated groups in terms of histopathologic findings and serum enzyme levels. The tissue concentrations of MDA and serum enzyme levels were significantly elevated in early and late treatment groups as compared with the control group. The treatment with Egb 761 caused significant decrease in serum amylase and lipase levels and histopathologic scores as compared with early and late pancreatitis groups. CONCLUSIONS: Prophylactic application of Egb761 exerts highly beneficial influence on the course of acute pancreatitis, and this seems to be related to the oxygen radical scavenger effect of Egb761. 相似文献

Endothelial dysfunction in hemodialysis patients with failed renal transplants.Clin Transplant 2009 DOI: 10.1111/j.1399‐0012.2009.01160.x© 2009 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Abstract: Background: Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is a common precursor and denominator of cardiovascular events including development of atherosclerosis. In this cross‐sectional study, we aimed to investigate ED, measured by coronary flow reserve (CFR) in hemodialysis (nHD) patients who were never transplanted and patients with failed renal transplants restarting hemodialysis (fTx‐HD). Methods: Forty nHD (24 males, mean age 39 ± 9 yr) and 43 fTx‐HD patients (27 males, mean age 36 ± 9 yr) were included in the study. Clinical and biochemical parameters, including high‐sensitive C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP) levels were determined. Also, CFR measurements were used to evaluate ED. Results: There were no significant differences regarding age, gender, smoking status, systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels, mean duration of HD treatment as well as Kt/V(urea) values between the two groups. Time spent on dialysis in the nHD group and dialysis duration following failure of renal allograft in the fTx‐HD group were similar. Serum creatinine, hemoglobin, hematocrit, calcium and phosphorus levels were similar between the two groups as well. When compared to nHD group, serum total cholesterol (139 ± 3 vs. 154 ± 3 mg/dL, p = 0.045), serum albumin (3.8 ± 0.3 g/dL vs. 4.1 ± 0.2 g/dL, p < 0.0001) and CFR (1.60 ± 0.2 vs. 1.75 ± 0.3, p = 0.028) levels were significantly lower, while serum hs‐CRP levels (11 ± 15 mg/L vs. 3 ± 4 mg/L, p = 0.001) were significantly higher in the fTx‐HD group. Serum hs‐CRP negatively correlated (r = ?0254, p = 0.021), while serum albumin positively correlated (r = 0402, p = 0.001) with CFR values. Conclusion: ED is more prominent in fTx‐HD than the nHD patients. Inflammation, caused by failed renal allograft can be responsible for this abnormality. 相似文献

Purpose: The identification of subjects with systemic sarcoidosis at higher risk for sudden death is an unresolved issue. An influence of the autonomic activity on the genesis of ventricular arrhythmias was postulated. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis provides a useful method to measure autonomic activity, and is a predictor of increased risk of death in various conditions. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate HRV in patients with systemic sarcoidosis. Methods : The study included 35 patients with biopsy proven systemic sarcoidosis who were not taking antiarrhythmic medications. Thallium scintigraphy was performed to all patients with systemic sarcoidosis. The cardiac sarcoidosis was accepted in 16 patients as abnormal thallium scintigraphy and normal coronary arteriography. The time‐domain analysis of HRV was expressed as the standard deviation of all normal to normal NN intervals (SDNN) detected during 24‐hour Holter monitoring. Twenty‐four healthy subjects represented a control group for HRV analysis. Results: There were no differences in age (44 ± 13 years for cardiac sarcoidosis, 42 ± 15 years for noncardiac sarcoidosis, and 40 ± 10 years for control group; P = NS), sex (the ratio of female; 63%, 68%, and 55%, respectively; P = NS), and echocardiographic ejection fraction (63 ± 10%, 67 ± 8%, and 69 ± 6%, respectively; P = NS) among study groups. The mean SDNN value of the group with cardiac sarcoidosis was significantly lower than both the group with noncardiac sarcoidosis and the control group (72 ± 32 ms vs 110 ± 46 ms and 152 ± 36 ms; P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion: HRV is decreased in patients with systemic sarcoidosis compared to the control group. This decreasing is more obvious in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis. 相似文献
