中国豆科植物新分类群(一)

笔者经过长时间对豆科的海红豆属Adenanthera、红豆属Ormosia、野扁豆属Dunbaria、山黑豆属Dumasia、胡枝子属Lespedeza…等12个属作了专属系统分类研究,陆续发现了一些新分类群。于是进行再调研与复查核实,补点采集和确认论证,在本文先报导1个新属、4个新种、3个亚种新组合和2个新变种,它们都是中国地理分布的地区特有分类群(除去1个亚种)其余将在另文续报。除此。作了其化学成分、药理试验、花粉与种皮的扫描电镜SEM观测及拍片分析和花、果、叶片和幼枝的比较形态解剖等研究,为新分类群的分类和区别及其亲缘关系提供佐证,为其新药筛选和其他应用开发、保护提供依据或参考。     

Early-rectal Cancer Treatment: A Decision-tree Making Based on Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Local excision (LE) has arisen as an alternative to total mesorectal excision for the treatment of early rectal cancer. Despite a decreased morbidity, there are still concerns about LE outcomes.This systematic-review and meta-analysis design is based on the “PICO” process, aiming to answer to three questions related to LE as primary treatment for early-rectal cancer, the optimal method for LE, and the potential role for completion treatment in high-risk histology tumors and outcomes of salvage surgery.The results revealed that reported overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) were 71%–91.7% and 80%–94% for LE, in contrast to 92.3%–94.3% and 94.4%–97% for radical surgery. Additional analysis of National Database studies revealed lower OS with LE (HR: 1.26; 95%CI, 1.09–1.45) and DSS (HR: 1.19; 95%CI, 1.01–1.41) after LE. Furthermore, patients receiving LE were significantly more prone develop local recurrence (RR: 3.44, 95%CI, 2.50–4.74). Analysis of available transanal surgical platforms was performed, finding no significant differences among them but reduced local recurrence compared to traditional transanal LE (OR:0.24;95%CI, 0.15–0.4). Finally, we found poor survival outcomes for patients undergoing salvage surgery, favoring completion treatment (chemoradiotherapy or surgery) when high-risk histology is present.In conclusion, LE could be considered adequate provided a full-thickness specimen can be achieved that the patient is informed about risk for potential requirement of completion treatment. Early-rectal cancer cases should be discussed in a multidisciplinary team, and patient's preferences must be considered in the decision-making process.     

Diagnóstico y seguimiento de los pacientes con hipotiroidismo congénito diagnosticados por cribado neonatal

The screening program of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is probably one of the best achievements in paediatrics. Thyroid hormones are essential for brain development and brain maturation that continue through the neonatal period. Hypothyroidism that begins in the first months of life causes irreversible damage to the central nervous system, and is one of the most frequent and preventable causes of mental retardation. As children with congenital hypothyroidism are born with a normal appearance, analytical studies are required to immediately start the appropriate therapy.This article analyses the aims, diagnostic procedures, tests required, aetiology, and differential diagnosis in this disorder. Especially relevant is to perform frequent monitoring to ensure dose adjustments of L-Thyroxine therapy, avoiding infra- or supra-dosing that negatively affects neurosensory functions. Re-evaluation of the aetiology permanent vs transient hypothyroidism is always recommended after 3 years of chronological age.The relevance of this screening program should be widely discussed in paediatrics. The main objective is to avoid cerebral damage in these patients, and has been highly successful and economically beneficial.Other aspects are required to optimise patient outcomes, to perform all the controls according to the recommendations and to include, in the near future, the diagnosis of central hypothyroidism. Implementation of this program is necessary to progress in accordance with current scientific knowledge.     

Alopecia Universal após Tratamento com Sinvastatina e Ezetimiba: Impactos na Família

Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune disease that grows in the scalp or in other parts of the body. Alopecia universalis, which is a rare form of alopecia areata, is characterized by a loss of hair that affects the entire body. In the two patients presented in this study, atorvastatin treatment was implemented, with the diagnosis of hypercholesterolemia; however, when the target values were not reached, a combination of simvastatin and ezetimibe was implemented. After a period of simvastatin/ezetimibe treatment, the AA disorder, which began with hair loss on the scalp, spread to the entire body and turned into Alopecia Universalis. Although statins can cause alopecia with autoimmune reactions, they are generally used in the treatment of alopecia due to their immunomodulatory effects.     

TRAF6通过内源性凋亡通路促进卡介苗诱导的巨噬细胞凋亡

目的 探讨肿瘤坏死因子受体相关因子6(TRAF6)对卡介苗（BCG）诱导巨噬细胞凋亡的调控作用。方法 Q-PCR检测活动性结核患者外周血中TRAF6的表达后利用不同感染复数的BCG感染RAW264.7细胞,在感染的不同时间通过Q-PCR和Western blot检测巨噬细胞中Caspase 3和TRAF6的表达。时间梯度试验处理组分为5组：对照组（未感染,C）、BCG感染6 h组、12 h组、18 h组和24 h组;感染复数试验处理组分为5组：对照组（未感染,C）、5 MOI组、10 MOI组、15 MOI组和20 MOI组。随后,通过小干扰RNA技术敲减RAW264.7细胞中TRAF6的表达,并结合BCG感染建立TRAF6敲减模型。TRAF6敲减实验分为4组：阴性对照组（NC）、BCG单独感染组（BCG）、TRAF6小干扰RNA单独处理组（siRNA）和TRAF6小干扰RNA与BCG共处理组（siRNA+BCG）。利用平板涂布法检测巨噬细胞菌载量变化。通过流式细胞术检测巨噬细胞凋亡率和线粒体膜电位变化。利用Western blot检测TRAF6、Caspase 3、PARP、Bcl-...
