2.A Risk Management Approach to Abdominal Pain in Primary Care
The Singapore Family Physician 2015;41(3):36-43
Abdominal pain is a common presentation to the family physician clinic and emergency departments and although common, it is often a symptom of serious disease, with many diagnostic challenges that the physician has to overcome. The missed surgical abdomen often results in high morbidity and mortality to the patient, and high medico-legal risk to physicians. In certain patient groups, such as the elderly, the women of childbearing age and the immunocompromised, presentation of abdominal pain can be atypical, and hence additional caution and consideration should be taken. In order to mitigate risk in the challenging primary healthcare environment that the primary physician faces where investigative resources can be limited, a careful diagnostic approach with regards to history taking and physical examination is used, coupled with good documentation of findings and patient discussion.

Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the contemporary society. Cardiac gene therapy has already been investigated in clinical studies profoundly. Adenovirus vector could transfer the gene efficiently, but low organ specificity and immuno- genie properties limited its application, With adenovims vector improved in the last few years, the third adenovims vector is probably the most potential vector systems for cardiovascular disease. This review will give a broad overview of the molecular basis of the adenovims vectors, their advantages, the development of increasingly efficient gene transfer approach, and experimental and clinical studies targeting the heart, application barriers and modified strategies.

Objective:To explore the possible specific perinatal risk factors in the development of autism through comparing the perinatal risk factors between patients with autism and other psychotic disorders.Methods: In this retrospective research,197 cases with autism and 93 cases with other psychotic disorders were selected and assessed with the self-made scale of perinatal risk factors.Statistical analyses were performed using t test and Chi-square test.Results:Compared with the control group,the autistic subjects had a significantly higher frequency of the perinatal risk factors(51 % vs.68%,P=0.003),particularly the rate of catching a cold during their mothers' pregnancy(14.2% vs.6.5%,P=0.038)and the rate of prematurity(10.7% vs.3.2%,P=0.022)than the control subjects.Feeding methods was different between the two groups(P=0.038).Conclusion:Catching a cold during mothers' pregnancy,prematurity and feeding methods may be related to the development of autism.

OBJECTIVE:To establish an LC-MS method for determination of picamilon in human plasma. METHODS:Picamilon and repaglinide(as internal standard)were separated on Agilent C18 column,using methanol-water(85 ∶ 15) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.2 mL?min-1. Column temperature was set at 20 ℃. SIM was used for determination of picamilon in human plasma.Ion mass spectral(m/z) of 207.0→121.1 was selected for picamilon and 451.3→379.2 for repaglinide.RESULTS:The linear range was 50~10 000 ?g?L-1(r=0.999 1); the method recovery was within 99.14%~104.27%. The RSD of inter-day and intra-day validation were 2.12%~5.94% and 7.30%~8.44%,respectively. CONCLUSION:The method is sensitive and accurate for the determination of picamilon in human plasma and its pharmacokinetic study.

ObjectiveTo explore a procedure to correct the multiple facial deformities by using the expanded frontal flap combined with the axial flaps.MethodsAccording to the face deformity we used the rectangle 100-350 ml expanders behind the frontal hairline,after finishing the tissue expanding,adopted two or three axial flaps based on the supraoribital,supratrochlear or temporal vessels. ResultsA total of 13 cases were treated with this approach.7 eases were nose and lip defect reconstruction after burn,in which temporal vessel-based flap was used in 2 cases and supraoribital or supratrochlear vessel-based flaps in 5 cases.The other 6 cases were nasal reconstruction combined with the frontal defect correction by using random flaps,including 2 cases of pigmented nevus,1 neurofibroma,and 3 burn scars.All the flaps survived and satisfactory appearance was obtained.Conclusions The expanded frontal flap combined with axial flap based on multiple vessels is a good approach to correct the multiple facial deformities.

Objective To study the influence of perdipine on the proliferation and proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK_ 2 ) expression in cultured adult rat cardiac fibroblast stimulated by angiotensin Ⅱ, and to explore the mechanism of perdipine on cardiac fibrosis. Methods Adult rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) were treated with angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ) to establish fibrosis model. The effects of perdipine on proliferation of CFs were analysed by MTT colorimetric assay, and fibronectin was tested by immunohistochemistry method. PYK_ 2 mRNA and protein level were examined by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis respectively. Results Perdipine inhibited CFs proliferation and fibronectin synthesis stimulated by angiotensin Ⅱ in a dose dependent, and the levels of PYK_2 mRNA and protein were decreased significantly. Conclusion Perdipine can inhibit cardiac fibrosis stimulated by angiotensin Ⅱ by suppressing CFs proliferation and fibronectin synthesis. PYK_2 is involved in the effect of perdipine.
