Prostaglandin E1, E2 and oxytocin in labor induction

The risks of induction must be carefully weighed against the risks of allowing the pregnancy to continue and not inducing labor. The aim of the study was to show labor and neonatal outcome of 335 deliveries inducted in 2004 at Institute of gynecology and obstetrics Clinical Center of Serbia. Inductions were performed with PGE2, PGE1 and Oxytocin. The best ripening effect was noted in PGE2 group. The average duration of labor was 8.6h in PGE1group, 5.9h in PGE2 group and 10.4h in OT group. Sixty eight labors finished with cesarean section (20%). Comparing duration of labor, percentage of emergency cesarean sections, incidence of fetal distress during the labor we suggest Dinoprostone, placed intracervically, as an agent of choice for induction of labor.     

Easier node dissection after chemoradiotherapy for lung cancer with collagen insertion at mediastinoscopy

Objective: Induction chemoradiotherapy followed by anatomical resection is a current therapeutic strategy for non-small-cell lung cancer with mediastinal node involvement. Dense peritracheal fibrosis and sclerosis after chemoradiotherapy cause difficult mediastinal node dissection. We evaluated a novel technique to make the mediastinal node dissection easier after induction therapy. Methods: At the end of mediastinoscopic node biopsy for staging of lung cancer, cotton-type collagen was inserted anterior and lateral to the trachea in patients with pathologically confirmed mediastinal node involve-ment (n=45). The induction therapy consisted of concurrent use of platinum-based chemotherapy and hyperfractionated radiotherapy. After the chemoradiotherapy all patients underwent a pulmonary resection with complete mediastinal node dissection 7–12 weeks after the collagen insertion. Surgical findings of the mediastinum and the time for node dissection were compared with those without collagen insertion at mediastinoscopy after chemoradiotherapy (n=5). Results: All five patients without collagen insertion showed sclerotic and fibrotic change of mediastinal nodes with severe adhesion to the trachea. In 42 of 45 patients with collagen insertion (93.3%) the collagen remained unabsorbed and separated the mediastinal nodes from the trachea. Mediastinal node dissection was easily accomplished by removing mediastinal tissues lateral and anterior to the collagen. The rate of mediastinal node separation was significantly higher with collagen insertion than without (p< 0.0001). The times for node dissection in patients with and without collagen insertion showed no significant difference. Conclusion: Cotton-type collagen insertion at staging mediastinoscopy for lung cancer separates the mediastinal nodes from the trachea and makes the node dissection easier after induction chemoradiotherapy.     

电针对狗血浆与胃黏膜组织中NO和NOS的影响及其意义

目的　观察电针对狗幽门压力、胃黏膜血流量的调控作用及其与血浆、胃黏膜组织中一氧化氮 (NO) ,一氧化氮合酶 (NOS)水平变化的关系 ,以探讨电针对胃黏膜保护作用的机制。方法　将 2 0只狗随机分为 4组 :空白对照组、非经非穴组、上巨虚组、足三里组 (每组 5只 )。采用胃压测量仪、激光多普勒血流仪监测幽门压力、频率及胃黏膜血流量的变化 ,同步测定血浆及胃黏膜组织中NO ,NOS含量 ,并观察变化规律。结果　电针后足三里组幽门括约肌总压力、基础压下降、频率下降 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,胃黏膜血流量显著升高 (4 .5 1± 0 .73→ 6.90± 1.0 1,P <0 .0 1) ,血浆及胃黏膜组织中NO ,NOS含量显著升高 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,上巨虚组仅幽门括约肌总压力下降 ,血浆NO含量上升。但足三里组各项监测指标变化趋势更明显 ,其他组变化无显著性。结论　电针可使狗幽门压力、频率下降 ,使胃黏膜血流量增加 ,与影响幽门压力、胃黏膜血流量的某些活性物质的含量改变有关 ,并具有一定的经络和穴位特异性。     

补益脾肾方佐治小儿哮喘的临床研究

目的比较小儿支气管哮喘中、西医治疗疗效.方法将64例支气管哮喘患儿随机分为两组治疗组32例,给予常规西药治疗及对症处理;中药组32例,在常规西药治疗的基础上加服中药(补益脾肾方),监测两组的ET-1、NO水平,比较两组的临床疗效.结果急性期ET-1、NO显著增高,入院时两组比较,差异无显著性(P＞0.05).治疗2w后,中药组ET-1、NO明显下降,两组比较,差异有显著性(P＜0.05).1年后随访患儿中,中药组(23例)轻度哮喘2例,中度哮喘3例,重度哮喘2例;治疗组(20例)依次分别为5例、4例、4例;1年内中药组与治疗组患儿哮喘发作次数比较未发作(例)61,发作＞3次(例)15,两组比较差异有显著性(P＜0.01).结论补益脾肾中药可降低支气管哮喘患儿的血ET-1、NO水平,减轻哮喘发作时的症状;随访1年患儿哮喘发作次数明显减少.我们认为补益脾肾中药可提高支气管哮喘患儿的机体抵抗力,减轻气管炎症损伤,对防治小儿支气管哮喘有效.     

填髓益脑法对大鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤的保护作用

目的观察填髓益脑法对局灶性脑缺血再灌注损伤后脑组织的保护作用。方法雄性成年SD大鼠40只随机分为假手术组、造模组、通络组、填髓益脑组。线栓法制作大鼠局灶性脑缺血模型。填髓益脑组、通络组均采用相应药物灌胃，假手术组和造模组以等量生理盐水灌胃。观察再灌注24h时神经行为学评分，检测NO、GLU及SOD。结果造模组神经行为学评分明显高于填髓益脑组与通络组，填髓益脑组与通络组相近：填髓益脑组与通络组NO、GLU、SOD较之造模组有明显差异。结论填髓益脑法对局灶性脑缺血再灌注损伤有明显的保护作用，其效果与通络法相同。其作用机制可能是通过阻止脑组织SOD活性降低、减少GLU的释放、降低NO含量而发挥神经保护作用。
