中药临床试验是中医药研究中发展较快的一个领域,临床研究协调员(CRC)在中药临床试验中有重要作用,其工作范围涉及到中药临床试验的各个方面。由于中药临床试验有着不同于西药临床试验的特点,CRC在中药临床试验中的作用也有其特殊性,对提高临床试验的安全性、科学性及试验数据的可信度方面起重要作用。
Objective To give an individualized treatment to a young woman with primary dysmenorrhea. Methods According to the basic principle and methods of evidence-base medicine, we searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 1, 2009), MEDLINE (PubMed, January 1950 to May 2009), ACP Journal Club (OVID, January 1991 to May 2007) for systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to acquire the best clinical evidence on the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea. Results A total of 11 systematic reviews and 1 RCT were identified. A reasonable treatment plan was made through combining the patient’s will with her family members’. Conclusion The treatment effect on primary dysmenorrhea of the young woman is improved by an individualized treatment plan based on an evidence-based method.
To summarize the medium-term cl inical result of bio-derived bone transplantation in orthopedics with tissue engineering technique. Methods From December 2000 to June 2001, 10 cases of various types of bone defect were treated with tissue engineered bone, which was constructed in vitro by allogenous osteoblasts from periosteum (1 × 106/ mL) with bio-derived bone scaffold following 3 to 7 days co-culture. Six men and 4 women were involved in this study, aged from 14 to 70 years with a median of 42 years. Among them, there were 2 cases of bone cyst, 1 case of non-union of old fracture, 6 cases of fresh comminuted fracture with bone defect, and 1 case of chronic suppurative ostemyel itis. The total weight of tissue engineered bone was 3-15 g in all the cases, averaged 7.3 g in each case. Results The wound in all the case healed by first intention. For 7 year follow up, bone union was completed within 3.0 to 4.5 months in 9 cases, but loosening occurred and the graft was taken out 1 year after operation in 1 case. The X-ray films showed that 9 cases achieved union except one who received resection of the head of humerus. No obvious abnormities were observed, and the function of affected l imbs met daily l ife and work. Conclusion Bio-derived tissue engineered bone has good osteogenesis. No obvious rejection and other compl ications are observed in the cl inical appl ication.
【摘要】 目的 探讨脑后部可逆性脑病综合征(posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome,PRES)的临床及MRI表现,提高对PRES的认识。 方法 回顾性分析2007年1月-2010年12月期间5例PRES患者的MRI资料并进行追踪随访。5例PRES患者中男1例,女4例,肾性高血压及产后子痫各1例、妊娠高血压3例。5例均行MRI多序列平扫检查及弥散加权成像(diffusion weighted imaging,DWI),其中4例同时行磁共振血管造影(magnetic resonance angiography,MRA),2例行MRI增强检查。 结果 5例发病时均有高血压,以突发头痛、子痫或癫痫发作、意识障碍及视觉障碍为临床特点,及时正确治疗后症状于3~5 d左右消失,1例遗留肢体功能障碍。MRI显示5例多发病灶主要位于双侧顶枕叶皮质下白质内,额叶及颞叶后部各2例,两侧小脑及脑干1例,皮质受累2例,病变呈长T1、长T2信号、液体衰减反转恢复序列呈高信号,5例患者病灶DWI图呈高或等信号,表观弥散系数(apparent diffusion coefficient,ADC)图呈略高信号;1例顶叶及1例基底节区部分病灶DWI图呈高信号,ADC图呈低信号,提示弥散受限。2例增强无强化,脑膜呈线状强化。随访MRI显示3例病灶完全消失。1例左侧基底节区部分病灶发展为脑梗死。 结论 PRES是一种临床-影像综合征,正确认识这一综合征对其早期诊断和治疗具有非常重要的意义。MRI能够提供较为可靠明确的诊断,其扩散成像对判断PRES预后亦很有价值。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the clinical features and MRI manifestations of patients with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), in order to improve its recognition. Methods From January 2007 to December 2010, MRI data of 5 patients with PRES were retrospectively analyzed and the patients were followed up. Among them, one was male and four were female. There were one case of postpartum eclampsia, one of renal hypertention, and 3 of pregnancy-induced hypertension. All the five patients were examined by MRI diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), among whom four underwent additional magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and one underwent enhanced MRI. Results All the five patients with PRES had hypertension and their clinical symptoms were characterized by sudden occurrence of headache, eclampsia or seizure of epilepsy, altered mental status, and visual disturbances. Clinical symptoms vanished about 3-5 days after prompt and appropriate treatment except one case of residual body function failure. MRI scanning demonstrated multifocal subcortical white lesions in bilateral parieto-occipital lobes in five patients, in bilateral frontal lobes in two patients, in bilateral post temporal lobes in two patients, in bilateral cerebellum in one patient, and in bilateral brainstem in one patient, and cortical involvement occurred in one patient. Lesions appeared as hyperintense signals on fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and T2-weighted images, hypointense signals on T1-weighted images, normal or increased intensity on DWI, and mild hypointensity on apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps. Some lesions in parietal lobes or basal ganglia showed hyperintensity on DWI and isointensity on ADC maps. The lesions in two patients appeared unenhanced with gadolinium enhancement and the meninges assumed the linear strengthening. Follow-up MRI showed that foci in three patients vanished completely, and the focus in the left basal ganglia in one patient developed into cerebral infarction. Conclusions PRES is a clinical-neuroradiological transient condition. Correctly understanding this syndrome is meaningful for its early diagnosis. MRI can provide a more reliable diagnosis, and its proliferation image formation is also valuable in predicting the PERS prognosis.
Abstract In order to find a new method to repair large bone defect, the free periosteum autograft was investigated in experiment, and then the method was used clinically. In the experiment, a 6mm×18mm×5mm bone defect was made at upper end of both tibiae of 42 rabbites. The periosteum of each rabbit was cut into 1mm cubes, and implanted randomly into the tbial bone defect on one side and the other side was used as control. After 2, 4, 8 weeks, the bone defects of each group were examined for bone formation by roentgenography, radionuclide and histology. The results showed that the defects treated by free periosteum autografts healed twice as fast as the controls (its natural healing). The reason probably was that the periosteum provided with many osteogenic cells. On thebasis of these results, 21 cases of bone defects (the largest was 10.5cm×4cm×4cm, the smallest was 2cm×2cm×2cm) including 17 cases of benign bone tumor and4 cases of chronic osteomyelitis, were treated by free periosteum autografts. The defects were all healed, and the function of the joints was restored.
Objective To evaluate the effects of emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (ECABG) in the treatment of emergent patients, and to summarize our experience. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 160 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Command from January 2010 through December 2013. The patients were divided into an ECABG group (operation underwent on the day diagnosed, n=27, 22 males and 5 females, at age of 70.2±10.2 years) and a conventional group (CABG operation underwent on 5 days after diagnosed, n=133, 104 males and 29 females, at age of 66.3±8.9 years). Results Statistical differences were found between the ECABG group and the conventional group in EuroSCORE (5.8±3.2 versus 3.4±2.1, P=0.001), acute myocardial infarction (33.3% vs. 11.3%, P=0.007), rate of application of IABP (29.6% versus 12.0%, P=0.034), pericardium and mediastinal tube drainage (533.4±132.8 ml versus 414.8±124.3 ml, P=0.018). There was no statistical difference in continuous renal replacement therapy (P=0.677), postoperative sternal wound complication (P=1.000), the length of hospital stay (P=0.589), or 30-day-mortality (P=0.198) between the two groups. We followed up 24 patients(88.89%) for 3-36 months in the ECABG group. One patient occurred angina symptoms at the end of 1 year follow-up. The symptoms disappeared after treatment. The other patients had no symptoms of angina pectoris and myocardial ischemia. Conclusion ECABG as a lifesaving therapy is an effective procedure in the treatment of severe and acute patients. Sufficient preoperative assessment, good myocardial protection, full revascularization, and comprehensive treatment plays an important role in the success of ECABG.
Objective To explore the clinical application of allogeneic bone transplantation. Methods Related literatures on clinical application of various allograft bone materials of the past 5 years were extensively reviewed. Results The allografts could be processed into various kinds of transplanting materials, such as small blocks, large segments, morselised or granular material, and bone ring, so that they could be applied to bone defect filling, prosthesis revision, limb preservation after tumor resection, and joint fusion. All these applications ended up with good clinical results. However, complications resulted in thestructural transplantation of large block bones could be overlooked. Conclusion The main advantage of bone allograft is that it can be integrated with host bone and be remodelled, so as to reconstruct bone structure and function. How to accelerate their integration and remodelling while exerting normal functions is the problem that requires solution.
