    BACKGROUND & AIMS: Focal and segmental sclerosed lesions in the glomeruli are found in several pathological entities and more often are found in the corticomedullary junction where renal blood flow and filtration pressure is maximal. Experimental data suggest that hyperfiltration injury results in focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). In keeping with this concept, malignant hypertension is a known cause of nephrotic-range proteinuria and nephrotic syndrome pathalobically represented by FSGS. We report a case of unilateral renal artery stenosis associated with nephrotic syndrome and FSGS in the contralateral kidney only. The kidney with the stenosed renal artery showed normal glomeruli with juxtaglomerular hyperplasia, suggesting that protection from hyperfiltration injury was provided by the presence of high-grade stenosis. Serum creatinine concentration, blood pressure, and proteinuria normalized after aorto-renal bypass surgery. This case shows the importance of hemodynamic factors on the pathogenesis of secondary FSGS and the progression of renal disease.

    背景与目标: 肾小球的局灶性和节段性硬化性病变在几种病理实体中发现,而在肾血流量和过滤压力最大的皮质管交界处更常见。实验数据表明,超滤损伤会导致局灶性和节段性肾小球硬化 (FSGS)。与这个概念保持一致,恶性高血压是由FSGS病理代表的肾病范围蛋白尿和肾病综合征的已知原因。我们报告了仅在对侧肾脏中与肾病综合征和FSGS相关的单侧肾动脉狭窄病例。肾动脉狭窄的肾脏显示正常的肾小球并伴有近肾小球增生,这表明高级别狭窄的存在可保护高滤过损伤。主动脉-肾搭桥手术后血清肌酐浓度,血压和蛋白尿正常化。该病例显示了血流动力学因素对继发性FSGS发病机理和肾脏疾病进展的重要性。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :This study aimed to clarify the effectiveness of post-operative oral care, including tooth brushing, denture cleaning and tongue cleaning, after digestive tract surgery. Subjects included 30 elderly patients aged 60-98 years (74.9 +/- 7.8 years) who underwent digestive tract surgery. Subjects were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. In the intervention group, the following oral care was provided daily over a 5-min period in the morning starting at baseline (day of surgery) and continued for 5 days: gargling with povidone iodine, tooth brushing, denture cleaning using a special brush and tongue cleaning using a tongue brush. In the control group, the subjects only gargled with povidone iodine. We compared the following variables between the two groups at baseline and 5 days later: the sensation of dry mouth, intra-oral gas concentration, pulmonary sounds, body temperature and bacterial flora. The number of patients with abnormal pulmonary sounds (dry or moist rales) increased from 1 to 2 in the intervention group and from 0 to 4 in the control group (P < 0.05). The average number of bacterial species per subject for the control group was 3.64 +/- 1.34 pre-operatively and 3.50 +/- 1.74 post-operatively, whereas that for the intervention group was 3.08 +/- 0.95 pre-operatively and 2.62 +/- 0.65 post-operatively. In the intervention group, there was a significant decrease in the number of bacterial species (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that post-operative oral care in elderly patients undergoing digestive tract surgery lowers the number of bacterial species found in the oral cavity. This effect, in turn, might improve respiratory function.
    背景与目标: : 本研究旨在阐明消化道手术后口腔护理的有效性,包括刷牙,义齿清洁和舌头清洁。受试者包括30名60-98岁 (74.9 +/- 7.8岁) 接受消化道手术的老年患者。受试者随机分为干预组和对照组。在干预组中,从基线 (手术当天) 开始,在早晨的5分钟内每天提供以下口腔护理,并持续5天: 用聚维酮碘漱口,刷牙,使用特殊刷子清洁义齿和使用舌头刷子清洁舌头。在对照组中,受试者仅用聚维酮碘漱液。我们在基线和5天后比较了两组之间的以下变量: 口干感,口内气体浓度,肺音,体温和细菌菌群。肺音异常 (干或湿啰音) 的患者数量在干预组从1增加到2,在对照组从0增加到4 (P <0.05)。对照组每个受试者的平均细菌种类数术前为3.64 +/- 1.34,术后为3.50 +/- 1.74,而干预组的平均细菌种类数术前为3.08 +/- 0.95,术后为2.62 +/- 0.65。干预组细菌种类显著减少 (P <0.05)。这些发现表明,接受消化道手术的老年患者的术后口腔护理降低了口腔中发现的细菌种类的数量。反过来,这种作用可能会改善呼吸功能。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:Although the benefit of thrombolytic therapy in reducing mortality in acute myocardial infarction is well established, the types of bleeding and risk factors for bleeding are less well described in large trials.

    METHODS AND RESULTS:We analyzed the baseline characteristics, outcomes, and incidence of bleeding by location, severity, and treatment assignment among 41,021 patients in the GUSTO-I trial of thrombolysis for acute myocardial infarction. Of the 40,903 patients for whom there were complete data, 1.2% suffered severe bleeding and 11.4% experienced moderate hemorrhage at a variety of sites. The most common sources of bleeding were procedure related. The thrombolytic regimen was strongly related to the incidence of bleeding; comparatively more bleeding was seen with the therapies of streptokinase plus intravenous heparin and the streptokinase and tissue plasminogen activator plus intravenous heparin combination. In multivariate analysis, the four most powerful independent predictors of hemorrhage were older age, lighter body weight, female sex, and African ancestry; they remained the most important predictors of bleeding when multivariate analysis was performed on patients who did not undergo invasive procedures. The presence of serious hemorrhage was associated with other undesirable outcomes (recurrent events, left ventricular dysfunction, arrhythmia, or stroke).

    CONCLUSIONS:Important predictors of bleeding in this population are increased age, lighter weight, female sex, African ancestry, and experiencing invasive procedures. Other nonhemorrhagic adverse clinical outcomes were associated with moderate and severe bleeding, which was in turn associated with increased length of hospital stay and mortality at 30 days.

    背景与目标: 背景 : 尽管溶栓治疗在降低急性心肌梗死死亡率方面的益处已得到充分证实,但在大型试验中,出血类型和出血危险因素的描述较少。
    方法和结果 : 在GUSTO-I急性心肌梗死溶栓试验中,我们分析了41,021名患者的基线特征,结局和出血发生率,按位置,严重程度和治疗分配。在40,903例有完整数据的患者中,1.2% 例严重出血,11.4% 例在不同部位出现中度出血。最常见的出血来源与手术有关。溶栓方案与出血发生率密切相关; 链激酶加静脉肝素以及链激酶和组织型纤溶酶原激活剂加静脉肝素联合治疗的出血相对较多。在多变量分析中,出血的四个最有效的独立预测因子是年龄较大,体重较轻,女性和非洲血统; 当对未接受侵入性操作的患者进行多变量分析时,它们仍然是出血的最重要预测因子。严重出血的存在与其他不良结果 (复发事件,左心室功能障碍,心律失常或中风) 相关。
    结论 : 该人群出血的重要预测因素是年龄增加,体重减轻,女性,非洲血统,经历侵入性手术。其他非出血性不良临床结局与中度和重度出血相关,而中度和重度出血又与30天时的住院时间和死亡率增加相关。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:In early-stage lung cancer, evidence is accumulating for the benefits of lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) over open lobectomy. Few thoracic training programs offer sufficient experience in this technically demanding procedure. This article describes the evolution of a new graduate's practice from open thoracotomy to VATS lobectomy. STUDY DESIGN:Our model involves a transition in technique from posterolateral thoracotomy to muscle-sparing thoracotomy and, ultimately, to VATS lobectomy. This approach was evaluated by examining outcomes of open thoracotomy patients before VATS lobectomy and outcomes of the initial 30 VATS patients. Data were collected prospectively. RESULTS:Before undertaking VATS lobectomy, 94 major pulmonary resections were performed by thoracotomy. Mortality was 1.2% for lobectomy and 0% for pneumonectomy. Use of the muscle-sparing thoracotomy increased from 17% of patients in the first half to 70% in the latter half of this group. For the first 30 VATS lobectomy patients, the mean operative time was 168 minutes. Median blood loss was 200 mL. Conversion rate to open thoracotomy was 13.3%. Mortality was 3.3% and morbidity was 26.7%. After short-term followup (mean followup 16 months), overall survival for stage I lung cancer was 96%. CONCLUSIONS:With our approach, new graduates of thoracic surgery programs can safely transition to VATS lobectomy. Gaining experience with the lateral muscle-sparing thoracotomy is an important step in the transition, as it offers similar operative exposure. Longterm disease-free and overall survival data are needed to evaluate our oncologic efficacy with this approach.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: Visual optics is taking on new clinical significance. Given that current refractive procedures can and do induce large amounts of higher order ocular aberration that often affects the patient's daily visual function and quality of life, we can no longer relegate the considerations of ocular aberrations to academic discussions. Instead, we need to move toward minimizing (not increasing) the eye's aberrations at the same time we are correcting the eye's spherical and cylindrical refractive error. These are exciting times in refractive surgery, which need to be tempered by the fact that after all the research, clinical, and marketing dust settles, the level to which we improve the quality of the retinal image will be guided by the trade-off between cost and the improvement in the quality of life that refractive surgery offers.

    背景与目标: 视觉光学具有新的临床意义。鉴于当前的屈光手术可以并且确实会引起大量的高阶眼像差,这些像差通常会影响患者的日常视觉功能和生活质量,因此我们不能再将眼像差的考虑因素置于学术讨论中。相反,我们需要在校正眼睛的球形和圆柱形屈光不正的同时,朝着最小化 (不增加) 眼睛的像差的方向发展。在屈光手术中,这是激动人心的时刻,需要通过以下事实来缓解: 在所有研究,临床和营销尘埃落定之后,我们提高视网膜图像质量的水平将取决于成本与屈光手术提供的生活质量之间的权衡。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:To assess the prevalence of night eating syndrome (NES) and binge eating disorder (BED) and their related behavioral and psychological correlates in persons who sought bariatric surgery. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES:A consecutive series of 215 persons with extreme obesity (82% women, 70% European American) completed the Weight and Lifestyle Inventory and a semistructured interview as part of a pre-surgery behavioral/psychological assessment. Diagnoses for NES and BED were based on graded diagnostic criteria. RESULTS:Percentages of participants who met diagnostic criteria for NES by interview were 1.9% for the strictest definition and 8.9% across all definitions of NES. After interview, full DSM-TR criteria for BED were met by 4.2%; an additional 1.4% reported binge eating at least once per week. Self-reported prevalence of NES and BED were higher. Those with NES or BED had significantly more symptoms of depression and a greater history of psychological complications than the remaining sample. DISCUSSION:The prevalence rates of NES and BED among this population of bariatric surgery candidates were lower than expected based on previous reports. Findings and hypotheses regarding lowered prevalence rates are discussed.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:The literature reports that the learning curve for laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGBP) is approximately 75-100 cases. This aim of the present study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of shortening the learning curve for performing LRYGBP by an experienced laparoscopic surgeon. METHODS:This study analyzed retrospectively the first 100 consecutive LRYGBP cases performed by an experienced laparoscopic surgeon between April 2003 and September 2003. The surgeon performed these cases after first assisting in 30 cases, and the first 4 cases were proctored by an experienced laparoscopic bariatric surgeon. Two cases done after previous gastric stapling and Nissen fundoplication were excluded from the study. Outcome variables included operative time, complications, conversion, and mortality. RESULTS:For the first 100 LRYGBP patients, the mean age was 42.6 years (range, 22-62 years) and mean body mass index (BMI) was 47.6 kg/m2 (range, 36-71.8). The complications included 1 case of intestinal leak, 1 case of small bowel obstruction, 6 cases of gastrojejunal stenosis, 8 cases of wound infection, 1 case of wound seroma, and 2 cases of pulmonary embolism, resulting in 1 mortality. One case was converted to an open technique. Over the second 50 cases, there was a significant reduction in mean operative time, to 73 minutes (range, 39-145 minutes) from 113 minutes (range, 54-238 minutes) (P < .0001). However, despite the reduction in complication frequency (no gastrointestinal leak or obstruction, 2 cases of gastrojejunal stenosis, 2 cases of wound infection, no pulmonary embolism/deep venous thrombosis, and no mortality), there was no significant correlation between the mortality, conversion, and complication rates and the surgeon's experience. CONCLUSION:A bariatric surgical practice incorporating LRYGBP can be safely done by an experienced laparoscopic surgeon. With appropriate advanced laparoscopic skills, preparatory steps, proctorship, and adequate volume of cases, the learning curve for performing LRYGBP can be reduced to 50 cases. Further experience is associated with a significant reduction in operative time with acceptable mortality, complication, and conversion rates.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:Medication and nutrient administration considerations after bariatric surgery are discussed. SUMMARY:Bariatric surgery is categorized by surgical technique (i.e., restrictive procedure or a combination of restrictive and malabsorptive procedures). Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is the most frequently performed bariatric surgery in the United States. Patients who have undergone this surgery are at risk for nutrient deficiencies. Several factors, such as pH and absorption sites, should be considered when providing these patients with appropriate supplementation. Drug solubility and surface area for absorption are also affected by gastric bypass procedures. By bypassing major portions of the small intestine, Roux-en-Y procedures drastically reduce the surface area for absorption. These changes may warrant manipulation in drug route or dose to ensure adequate delivery. Drugs with long absorptive phases that remain in the intestine for extended periods are likely to exhibit decreased bioavailability in these patients. The reduced size of the stomach after surgery can place patients at risk for adverse events associated with some medications. Medications implicated in such adverse events include nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, salicylates, and oral bisphosphonates. Drugs that are rapidly and primarily absorbed in the stomach or duodenum are likely to exhibit decreased absorption in patients who have had combination restrictive-malabsorptive procedures. Because reduced drug absorption may result in decreased efficacy rather than toxicity, increased patient monitoring for therapeutic effects can help detect potential absorption problems. CONCLUSION:Selection of appropriate nutrient salts can improve nutrient replacement in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery. Changes in dosage forms based on drug characteristics can improve bioavailability.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :The practice of duplicate publication has been condemned widely in the scientific community and several studies have been conducted to establish the level of the problem in various surgical fields. A retrospective review of original articles from the British Journal of Plastic Surgery and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery during 2000 was conducted, using Medline (PubMed). A total of 431 abstracts were screened, from which 27 index articles related to 33 'suspected redundant' publications. Further evaluation was carried out by comparing the full text versions of these articles and assigning a grade of non-dual, dual, potentially dual and 'salami-slicing'. Only four suspect articles were confirmed as having some degree of redundancy, and these related to three index articles (3/431, <1%). The incidence of duplication in plastic surgery literature seems to be much lower compared to other surgical specialties, providing reassurance for reviewers, editors and readers of these journals.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVES:This prospective study was designed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of Doppler ultrasound parameters in the diagnosis of cirrhosis and portal hypertension. METHODS:Portal and hepatic arterial Doppler ultrasound was performed on 76 patients with cirrhosis and esophageal varices and on 73 age- and sex-matched controls. The parameters evaluated were portal venous velocity and hepatic arterial pulsatility index. The liver vascular index was calculated as the ratio of portal venous velocity to hepatic arterial pulsatility index. RESULTS:Portal venous velocity was significantly lower (11.0 +/- 2.4 vs 15.9 +/- 2.8 cm/s, p < 0.001) and hepatic arterial pulsatility index was significantly higher (1.28 +/- 0.18 vs 0.95 +/- 0.17,p < 0.001) in patients than in controls. Thus, the liver vascular index was significantly lower in patients than in controls (8.7 +/- 2.1 vs 17.2 +/- 4.3 cm/s, p < 0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of these parameters in the detection of cirrhosis and portal hypertension was then analyzed with the receiver operating characteristic curve. The best cut-off values were considered to be 13 cm/se of portal venous velocity and 1.1 of hepatic arterial pulsatility index, showing a sensitivity and specificity of 83, 85, 84, and 81%, respectively. The best cut-off value of the liver vascular index was 12 cm/s with a sensitivity and specificity of 97 and 93%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The liver vascular index is a high sensitive and specific Doppler ultrasound parameter in the diagnosis of cirrhosis and portal hypertension.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Scleroderma is an immune-mediated disease characterized by excess deposition of collagen leading to microvascular occlusion. Morbidity and mortality are often secondary to pulmonary hypertension from injury to pulmonary microvasculature and interstitial lung disease. This study correlated P-wave findings on the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) with mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) measured by right heart catheterization in patients with scleroderma. METHODS:A retrospective review of 12-lead ECGs in 23 patients referred to a rheumatology clinic with the diagnosis of scleroderma was performed. Right heart catheterization was performed within 1 month of the resting ECG. RESULTS:Linear regression related P-wave amplitude in lead II with mPAP (r = 0.52, P = .011) This model was 73% sensitive and 67% specific for the presence or absence of elevated mPAP. CONCLUSIONS:P-wave amplitude analysis on the ECG may be helpful in the assessment of pulmonary hypertension in patients with scleroderma.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: The expression and localization of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) were examined immunohistochemically in 59 human coronary artery lesions retrieved by directional coronary atherectomy and compared with the localization of transforming growth factor beta isoforms (TGF-beta 1, -beta 2, and -beta 3). In 21 of the 59 specimens (35.6%) HGF-like immunoreactivity (HGF-IR) was revealed. The HGF immunopositivity rate of 45% (14/31) in thrombotic tissue was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than the rates of 7.3% (4/55), 7.1% (3/42), and 0% (0/14) in fibrous tissue, neointimal hyperplasia and atheromatous gruel, respectively. Immunoreactivity for HGF was much weaker than that for TGF-beta isoforms in these components except in thrombotic tissue. These cells exhibiting strong HGF-IR were inflammatory cells such as monocytes/macrophages in thrombotic tissue, in tissue lesions adjacent to a thrombus, and outside the capillary walls in a portion of the neovascularized lesions. Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) hardly demonstrated HGF-IR. In contrast, in control coronary arteries obtained at autopsy, the HGF-IR was strongly expressed in SMCs. These findings suggest that HGF produced by macrophages play a part in the process of coronary plaque formation attributable to thrombus in man.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: UNLABELLED:A Methodical Study:

    AIM OF THE STUDY:To analyse the feasibility of colour and spectral Doppler assessment of blood flow in the fetal right (RPA) and left (LPA) main pulmonary arteries in relation to fetal position and to gestational age.

    STUDY DESIGN:The fetal position was a priori divided into 3 types, depending on whether the fetal heart was visualised apically (Type 1), from the right side (Type 2) or from the left side (Type 3). Three groups A (19-25 weeks gestation), B (26-32) and C (33-39) including 33 consecutive pregnancies each, were examined to document the fetal position as well as the rate of the successful Doppler examinations of the RPA and/or LPA.

    RESULTS:The fetal position Type 2 was most common throughout gestation (in group A = 42%, B = 36%, C = 51%) followed by the type 3 and then type 1. The rate of successful Doppler records from the RPA and LPA depended on the fetal position: In Type 2 RPA in 98%; in Type 3, LPA in 100%; but the apical approach was not effective (< 40%). Depending on gestational age, the success rates for a Doppler examination of at least one vessel were high (> 85%), whereas successful examination of both vessels was unlikely (12%).

    CONCLUSIONS:In the second half of pregnancy, independent of fetal position, Doppler examination of at least one pulmonary artery is successful in most cases, whereas the assessment of both vessels is rather difficult.

    背景与目标: 未标记 : 有条不紊的研究:
    研究的目的 : 分析彩色和频谱多普勒评估胎儿右 (RPA) 和左 (LPA) 主肺动脉血流与胎儿位置和胎龄的可行性。
    研究设计 : 根据胎儿心脏是从右侧 (2型) 还是从左侧 (3型) 可视化,先验地将胎儿位置分为3种类型。A组 (妊娠19-25周),B组 (26-32) 和C组 (33-39),每组33次连续怀孕,检查以记录胎儿位置以及RPA和/或LPA的成功多普勒检查率。
    结果 : 2型胎儿位置在整个妊娠期间最常见 (A组 = 42%,B = 36%,C = 51%) 接着是类型3,然后是类型1。来自RPA和LPA的成功多普勒记录的速率取决于胎儿位置: 在2型RPA中98%; 在3型中,在100% 中LPA; 但是根尖方法无效 (< 40%)。根据胎龄的不同,对至少一个血管进行多普勒检查的成功率很高 (> 85%),而对两个血管的成功检查不太可能 (12%)。
    结论 : 在怀孕的后半段,在大多数情况下,独立于胎儿位置,对至少一条肺动脉进行多普勒检查是成功的,而对两条血管的评估相当困难。
