慢性心衰患者电话干预的随机试验：DIAL试验

目的:明确集中的电话干预能否降低慢性心衰门诊患者死亡或因心衰加重而住院的发生率。设计:多中心、随机对照试验。地点:阿根廷的51个中心(包括公立、私立的医院及流动设施)。参与者:1518例患有稳定的慢性心衰且已接受最佳药物治疗方案治疗的门诊患者,由心脏科主治医师分层后随机分为电话干预组和常规治疗组。干预:在常规治疗的基础上,由一个中心通过护士频繁的电话随访对患者进行教育、辅导和监督。主要观察指标:全因死亡或由于心衰加重而住院。结果:99.5%的患者完成了全部随访。常规治疗组758例患者中由于心衰加重而住院或死亡的比例(235…     

An analysis of astrocytic cell lines with different abilities to promote axon growth

The adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) lacks the capacity to support axonal regeneration. There is increasing evidence to suggest that astrocytes, the major glial population in the CNS, may possess both axon-growth promoting and axon-growth inhibitory properties and the latter may contribute to the poor regenerative capacity of the CNS. In order to examine the molecular differences between axon-growth permissive and axon-growth inhibitory astrocytes, a panel of astrocyte cell lines exhibiting a range of axon-growth promoting properties was generated and analysed. No clear correlation was found between the axon-growth promoting properties of these astrocyte cell lines with: (i) the expression of known neurite-outgrowth promoting molecules such as laminin, fibronectin andN-cadherin; (ii) the expression of known inhibitory molecules such tenascin and chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan; (iii) plasminogen activator and plasminogen activator inhibitor activity; and (iv) growth cone collapsing activity. EM studies on aggregates formed from astrocyte cell lines, however, revealed the presence of an abundance of extracellular matrix material associated with the more inhibitory astrocyte cell lines. When matrix deposited by astrocyte cell lines was assessed for axon-growth promoting activity, matrix from permissive lines was found to be a good substrate, whereas matrix from the inhibitory astrocyte lines was a poor substrate for neuritic growth. Our findings, taken together, suggest that the functional differences between the permissive and the inhibitory astrocyte cell lines reside largely with the ECM.

膀胱癌患者行膀胱灌注应用盐酸利多卡因凝胶留置尿管的效果观察

目的 观察老年膀胱癌患者在膀胱灌注中应用盐酸利多卡因凝胶留置尿管的效果.方法 将50例需灌注化疗前置管的老年膀胱癌患者随机分为两组,实验组在置管前先用10ml盐酸利多卡因凝胶经尿道表面麻醉,然后按常规方法将尿管置入:对照组按常规方法应用液体石蜡油润滑后留置尿管.采用Zung氏焦虑自评量表(SAS)观察患者灌注前和灌注后的主观感受.结果 实验组留置尿管后焦虑反应(SAS 44.49±5.24分)低于对照组(52.95±9.16分),实验组留置尿管一次成功率(100%)明显高于对照组(88%),差异均有统计学意义(P<0.01).结论 盐酸利多卡因凝胶可明显减轻老年膀胱癌患者行膀胱灌注时留置尿管的焦虑反应,提高置管的一次成功率.

Electrophysiologic evaluation of Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy. A single fiber and quantitative EMG study

A 16-year-old boy, the only affected member of the family, noticed early onset contracture of the elbows, and developed slowly progressive humeroperoneal weakness and atrophy, and bilateral equinus. The severe restriction of the forward flexion of the neck and thoracolumbar spine, resembled a rigid spine syndrome. An electrocardiogram showed atrioventricular conduction abnormalities. Muscle biopsy was consistent with mild myopathy. The overall conventional findings of a detailed electromyographic study in the limbs and erector trunci muscles, as well as the results of conduction velocity, automatic analysis of the voluntary pattern and single fiber electromyography studies were consistent with myopathy, although some atypical findings were found. The controversy about neurogenic and myopathic features in Emery-Dreifuss disease is discussed. The unspecific value of the flexion limitation of the spine, and the uncertain nosological position of the rigid spine syndrome are also commented.     

血浆三种维生素检测对急性胰腺炎的临床价值

目的　探讨急性胰腺炎与血浆维生素C、维生素E和 β 胡萝卜素的关系。 方法　采用分光光度比色分析法检测 6 8例急性胰腺炎和 4 0例健康献血员血浆三种维生素含量。结果　急性胰腺炎组维生素C、维生素E、β 胡萝卜素含量较对照组显著降低 (P <0 .0 1) ,且随着禁食时间的延长呈逐渐降低趋势。 结论　急性胰腺炎时患者体内的氧化和抗氧化系统平衡失调 ,补充抗氧化维生素有助于病情的恢复。
