In treating cancer patients, disease free survival and survival have been improved during the last decade by technical progress and new systemic therapies. In radiation therapy as well as in any other cancer treatment potential long-term side effects and complications need special attention. The success of doubling tumour control by radiation therapy in patients with head and neck tumours illustrates the needs of long-term follow-ups. Cost-effectiveness has to be considered, when treatment results of RT equal surgical results, as it is often the case in head and neck tumours as well as in other malignant diseases. 相似文献

Eleven women with hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea were treated with a combined estrogen/progestogen preparation (Loestrin 30) for 3 months as hormone replacement therapy because of estrogen deficiency, with a view to protection against osteoporosis. Serum prolactin levels rose during the 1st month of treatment (p < 0.05) but did not rise significantly further during the 2nd and 3rd months. The levels rose in proportion to pretreatment levels by 28% (median), and fell significantly but not completely during the 1-week treatment-free intervals. After the study period, prolactin values appeared to remain stable in those women who continued longer on treatment, and returned to around pretreatment values in those who stopped. In one woman there was radiological evidence of pituitary tumor growth during treatment. This study shows that estrogen/progestogen treatment in standard contraceptive dosage usually leads to only moderate and non-progressive stimulation of pituitary activity in women with hyperprolactinemic amenorrhea, but occasional excessive growth of a prolactinoma can occur and treatment needs to be monitored. Women with relatively high prolactin levels seem to be at particular risk. Safer variations of estrogen therapy such as lower dosage or combination with a protective low dose of a dopamine agonist should also be considered. 相似文献

Al-doped ZnO (AZO) is considered as an alternative to transparent conductive oxide materials. Patterning and achieving a stable surface are important challenges in the development and optimization of dry etching processes, which must be overcome for the application of AZO in various devices. Therefore, in this study, the etch rate and surface properties of an AZO thin film after plasma etching using the adaptive coupled plasma system were investigated. The fastest etch rate was achieved with a CF4/Ar ratio of 50:50 sccm. Regardless of the ratio of CF4 to Ar, the transmittance of the film in the visible region exceeded 80%. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of the AZO thin film confirmed that metal-F bonding persists on the surface after plasma etching. It was also shown that F eliminates O vacancies. Consequently, the work function and bandgap energy increased as the ratio of CF4 increased. This study not only provides information on the effect of plasma on AZO thin film, but identifies the cause of changes in the device characteristics during device fabrication. 相似文献

Recent world-wide publications were reviewed in order to determine the clinical characteristics and therapeutic relevance of the chlamydial respiratory tract infections in humans. It was emphasized that Chlamydia pneumoniae could initiate asthma and may be associated with acute asthma exacerbation. Laboratory procedures for identifying chlamydia and difficulties concerned with the diagnostics of this intracellular pathogen were also presented. In patients with evidence of chlamydial infection the casual treatment (macrolides, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones) may induce major improvement or complete resolution of asthma. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: An attempt was made to find out how many operations were performed in Europe in 1995 for congenital heart disease. METHODS: Representatives from the 20 most active European countries which could supply reliable information were contacted. They were asked to contact all surgeons performing significant numbers of operations for congenital heart disease in their country. The numbers of operations on children under and over 1 year operated on with and without cardiopulmonary bypass were collected. No attempt was made to collect more detailed information such as operative mortality as it was felt that many surgeons would be reluctant to give their results and the data would be incomplete. RESULTS: A total of 27,976 operations were recorded, of which 20,318 were performed with cardiopulmonary bypass and 7658 without. The total population of the 20 European countries was 448 million and the mean number of operations performed with cardiopulmonary bypass per million was 45.4. However, the rate varied from 9.1 to 70.1. The percentage of operations on cardiopulmonary bypass performed in the first year of life varied from 9.4% to 44.4%. CONCLUSIONS: The total of nearly 28,000 operations in 1995 is probably an underestimate, but it has been difficult to collect this data at all. Obviously many smaller countries have not been included, and some older patients undergoing operations such as atrial septal defect closure in adult units have been missed. The number of open heart operations per million vary in different countries and this presumably represents differing referral patterns. If their numbers are low in some countries, these results may be helpful in persuading their governments that more resources are needed for congenital heart surgery. It is also interesting to see the variation in the number of operations performed in the first year of life. Those countries with a lower rate may have a backlog of older patients who were previously palliated, or their surgeons may still prefer initial palliation and later correction in some conditions rather than early correction. It is hoped that with better prospective data collection, an assessment can be repeated in 2000. 相似文献

A light microscopy system has been designed for freezing and lyophilization studies of protein pharmaceuticals. The system consists of a cascade of four Peltier thermoelectric modules in the lyophilization cell to freeze samples to -60 degrees C, controllers to regulate temperature and pressure conditions, and a video camera to record the events under study. Specific demonstration of the system was conducted using recombinant CD4-IgG and human growth hormone (hGH) as model proteins. Observations of recrystallization during warming of frozen CD4-IgG solution and lyophilization of hGH solution are discussed. These examples demonstrate that the system is a useful tool for the fundamental understanding of freezing and lyophilization of protein pharmaceuticals. 相似文献
