An updated review on pathophysiology and management of burning mouth syndrome with endocrinological,psychological and neuropathic perspectives

Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a chronic oro‐facial pain disorder of unknown cause. It is more common in peri‐ and post‐menopausal women, and sex hormone dysregulation is believed to be an important causative factor. Psychosocial events often trigger or exacerbate symptoms, and persons with BMS appear to be predisposed towards anxiety and depression. Atrophy of small nerve fibres in the tongue epithelium has been reported, and potential neuropathic mechanisms for BMS are now widely investigated. Historically, BMS was thought to comprise endocrinological, psychosocial and neuropathic components. Neuroprotective steroids and glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor family ligands may have pivotal roles in the peripheral mechanisms associated with atrophy of small nerve fibres. Denervation of chorda tympani nerve fibres that innervate fungiform buds leads to alternative trigeminal innervation, which results in dysgeusia and burning pain when eating hot foods. With regard to the central mechanism of BMS, depletion of neuroprotective steroids alters the brain network–related mood and pain modulation. Peripheral mechanistic studies support the use of topical clonazepam and capsaicin for the management of BMS, and some evidence supports the use of cognitive behavioural therapy. Hormone replacement therapy may address the causes of BMS, although adverse effects prevent its use as a first‐line treatment. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) may have important benefits, and well‐designed controlled studies are expected. Other treatment options to be investigated include brain stimulation and TSPO (translocator protein 18 kDa) ligands.     

肾综合征出血热病毒气溶胶的物理稳定性实验研究

本文采用荧光素钠正常鼠脑悬液做模拟示踪物质，对肾综合征出血热病毒气溶胶在空气中的物理稳定性进行了测定，并与其生物稳定性做了比较。结果表明：病毒气溶胶的粒子大小在１ｕｍ左右，它随气溶胶的胶龄增长而减少，且其分散度变窄。初始气溶胶的物理回收率及其各胶龄的物理存留率均明显地高于它的生物回收率和生物存活率。本文还就肾综合征出血热病毒气溶胶的物理稳定性和生物稳定性，对本病空气传播的影响进行了讨论。     

阴道镜下高频电灼术联合α-2a干扰素凝膏治疗尖锐湿疣疗效分析

目的探讨阴道镜下高频电灼术联合重组人干扰素α-2a治疗尖锐湿疣（CA）的效果。方法将165例CA分为3组，A组应用阴道镜下高频电灼术联合重组人干扰素α-2a；B组单纯采用阴道镜下高频电灼治疗；C组应用NS-FII型多功能光谱治疗仪联合肌注重组人干扰素α-2a。结果治疗后3-6个月A、B、C组复发率分别为0％、4．4％、65．4％：半年后人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）转阴率分别为93．5％、85．4％、43．8％，A组明显优于B组，B组明显优于C组，3组比较差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。结论阴道镜下高频电灼术联合重组人干扰素α-2a治疗CA可明显降低CA复发率和提高HPV转阴率。

中药治疗ABO母婴血型不合溶血病至高胆红素血症临床疗效观察

目的 探讨早期简便有效治疗ABO母婴血型不合性高胆红素血症(ABO HDN With HUCB)的新方法,方法自1997年6月～2006年1月期间在本院分娩并因黄疸确诊为ABO HDN With HUCB 病例,随机选取92例,生后24小时内发现黄疸单纯口服中药茵桅黄口服液为A组(n=46).≥24～72小时发现黄疸为B组(n=46),A组,B组口服同样药物并按常规方法光疗,静脉输白蛋白,同时两组均在最初发现黄疸时取股静脉血,之后用经皮测黄疸仪监测胆红素峰值A组于＞72小时降至＜12.9mgldl.B组降至＜9mgldl为治愈.结果 2组相比有3种显著差异1、总胆红素峰值A组104.68±17.3umoi/l,B组16.27±52.28umoi/l,p＜0.001.2、喂养方式,A组全部母乳喂养,并在母婴同室,B组全部在NZCU由护士用配方奶喂养.3、平均住院天数,A组5.33±0.62天,B组10.39±2.92天,p＜0.001.结论 中药茵桅黄口服液对治疗在分娩后24小时内发现的ABO HDN With HUCB的疗效是可信的.

Experienced Health,Life Satisfaction,Sense of Coherence,and Coping Resources in Individuals Living with Heart Failure

The purpose of this study was to explore relationships between experienced health, sense of coherence, coping resources, and life satisfaction in individuals living with heart failure. Twenty-two patients--12 men and 10 women--were included in the study. All subjects were admitted to a eight-week programme of aerobic training. Four questionnaires were used: the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MHLF), the Sense of Coherence scale (SOC), the Coping Resources Inventory (CRI), and the Life Satisfaction Checklist of Fugl-Meyer et al. After the exercise programme the mean score of MLHF was significantly lower as compared with the start of the programme. The majority of the individuals reported that they were satisfied with life as a whole, family life, partnership relation contact with friends, and their psychological state of health. Only one-third were satisfied with their sexual life. A high sense of coherence and coping resources characterized the subjects. There was a slight tendency for those who reported satisfaction with life as whole to report a stronger sense of coherence, a higher degree of coping resources, and a lower degree of symptoms of heart failure. A conclusion was that clinicians should emphasize that patients can continue to remain active and enjoy a reasonable quality of life.
