可弯曲胸腔镜和硬质胸腔镜诊断不明原因胸腔积液的对比临床研究

目的对比可弯曲胸腔镜和硬质胸腔镜在不明原因胸腔积液诊断中的准确性和安全性。方法采用前瞻性随机对照研究,连续筛选四川大学华西医院2012年3月至2014年3月期间不明原因胸腔积液住院患者,患者年龄18~75岁。经知情同意后,患者随机进入可弯曲胸腔镜组或硬质胸腔镜组进行检查。结果可弯曲胸腔镜组入组49例患者,硬质胸腔镜组入组48例患者。两组共有44例患者通过胸腔镜检查确诊为恶性疾病,48例确诊为良性疾病。两组诊断不明原因胸腔积液总体准确性分别为93.9%和95.8%,可弯曲胸腔镜组诊断肿瘤的敏感性为96.0%,硬质胸腔镜组诊断肿瘤的敏感性为95.2%,两组诊断肿瘤的特异性均为100.0%,两组之间差异无统计学意义。两种胸腔镜技术并发症多数轻微,患者均耐受良好。结论对于不明原因胸腔积液,可弯曲胸腔镜诊断的准确性与硬质胸腔镜相当。尽管可弯曲胸腔镜取材组织小,但是通过多点多次取材,所获得的组织标本能满足病理科医生进行包括免疫组织化学检测在内的疾病诊断。     

深圳市制造企业90后新招产线员工心理弹性、应对方式与心理健康间的关系

目的探讨深圳市3家制造企业新招90后产线员工心理弹性、应对方式和心理健康间是否存在某种关系。方法在深圳市3家制造企业选取入职一周的新招90后产线员工,以其入职日期为单位进行整群抽样。应用心理弹性量表CDRISC、简易应对方式问卷SCSQ以及一般健康问卷GHQ-20三个量表分别测量其心理弹性、应对方式以及心理健康,并利用结构方程模型软件Amos 17.0进行路径分析。结果心理弹性与心理健康呈正相关关系(P<0.01);心理弹性和心理健康与积极应对呈正相关关系(P<0.01);心理弹性和心理健康与消极应对呈负相关关系(P<0.01);结构方程模型结果表明:心理弹性既可以直接影响心理健康,又可以通过积极应对和消极应对的中介作用间接影响心理健康。结论深圳市制造企业新招产线员工的心理弹性、应对方式与心理健康间存在线性相关关系,且心理弹性通过积极应对和消极应对对心理健康起着部分间接的作用。     

Sequential Therapy Based on Evolvement of Patterns: A New Model for Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease

In order to solve the problem of long-term (>9 months) efficacy in the treatment of Alzheimer''s disease (AD) by conventional therapy (CT), a staged and multiply-targeted sequential therapy based on the evolvement of patterns (STEP) was developed. Its main innovations include: (1) the time order of evolution of patterns defined by Chinese medicine (CM) in AD was found, that is, "the orderly pattern evolution starting from Shen (Kidney) deficiency, progressing to phlegm, stasis and fire, and worsening to severe toxin as well as functional collapse"; (2) the cascade hypothesis of Shen deficiency in AD and its sequential therapy based on Shen-reinforcing was proposed, that is, "reinforcing Shen in the early stage and throughout the whole process, resolving phlegm, activating blood and purging fire in the middle stage, detoxifying and replenishing vitality to stop the collapse in the advanced stage", and through meta-analysis, clinical drug use was optimized, thus the leap from "inferential selection" to "evidence-based selection" was realized; (3) the STEP regimen combined with CT maintained cognitive and behavioral stability in AD patients for at least 12 months, with cognitive enhancement and behavioral synergy after 9 months, and cognitive benefit was superior to CT at 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24 months, respectively. The 2-year cognitive improvement rate was increased by 25.64% (P=0.020) and the cognitive deterioration rate was decreased by 48.71% (P=0.000). Among them, the cognitive and functional benefits of Shen-reinforcing therapy for very early AD (350 cases) for 1 year were better than the placebo (P<0.001), and the dementia conversion rate was reduced by 8.85% (P=0.002). The behavioral symptomatic relief of patients with vascular dementia received fire-purging therapy (540 cases) was superior to those received CT (P=0.016). These data suggested that the STEP regimen has synergistic effects on CTs at least in terms of cognitive benefit, and the earlier the use, the greater the benefit will have. Therefore, the STEP regimen should be considered as one of the clinical options, particularly for the dearth of effective pharmaceutical or immunological interventions that are currently available for AD.     

肝门胆管癌的动态增强CT诊断

目的评价螺旋CT对肝门胆管癌的诊断价值。方法13例肝门胆管癌行螺旋CT平扫及动态增强扫描,并与手术及病理对照分析。结果11例平扫表现为肝门区低密度软组织肿块;2例表现为肝门区胆管不规则增厚,管腔狭窄。增强扫描13例有延迟强化。结论螺旋CT扫描对肝门胆管癌的诊断具有重要意义。     

Soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 in acute respiratory infections.

Levels of the soluble form of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM)-1 are elevated in severe sepsis. However, it is not known whether sTREM-1 measurements can distinguish milder bacterial infections from noninfectious inflammation. The present authors studied whether serum sTREM-1 levels differ in community-acquired pneumonia, exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and controls, and whether sTREM-1 may be used as a surrogate marker for the need for antibiotics. Serum sTREM-1 levels in 150 patients with pneumonia, COPD and asthma exacerbations and 62 healthy controls were measured. Serum sTREM-1 levels were significantly elevated in pneumonia (median 295.2 ng x mL(-1)), COPD (280.3 ng x mL(-1)) and asthma exacerbations (184.0 ng x mL(-1)) compared with controls (83.1 ng x mL(-1)). Levels were higher in pneumonia and Anthonisen type 1 COPD exacerbations than in type 2 and 3 COPD and asthma exacerbations. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve for sTREM-1 as a surrogate marker for the need for antibiotics was 0.77. Serum levels of the soluble form of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 were elevated predominantly in pneumonia and Anthonisen type 1 COPD exacerbations versus type 2 and 3 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations, asthma and controls. Serum levels of the soluble form of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 has moderate but insufficient accuracy as a surrogate marker for the need for antibiotics in lower respiratory tract infections.     

肛直肠抑制反射时门静脉血中P物质变化

目的探讨肛直肠抑制反射（RAIR）时门静脉血中P物质（SP）的变化规律及外源性内脏神经对其变化的影响。方法将实验大白鼠分为7组，其中6组先按去与不去直肠肛管外源性内脏神经支配而分为不去神经和去神经两大组，每组中又按Foley导管上气囊置入直肠腔中的位置分为2、4、6cm组；同时再设1个对照组，将Foley导管置入直肠腔中，但不注水扩张球囊。检测并比较在直肠腔内刺激后，各组门静脉血中的SP值及变化情况。结果去神经组中2、4cm组与不去神经组之间及对照组之间，门静脉血中SP值变化比较，P〉0．05，差异无统计学意义。不去神经组中的6cm组与对照组及去神经组中2cm和4cm组之间SP值比较，P〈0．01，差异有统计学意义；去神经组和不去神经组中的6cm组之间SP值比较，P〈0．01，差异有统计学意义。结论直肠腔内上部的刺激不引出RAIR可能与该部位的刺激使内括约肌兴奋性递质（SP）的释放有关；外源性内脏神经对RAIR中门静脉血的SP变化有调控作用。
