Physicians with an interest in pain have long suggested that the poor complain more and have a higher prevalence of neuroticism than do higher social groups. This assumption was tested by analysing the pain patterns in 500 consecutive patients attending a pain relief clinic. Results implied that scores for presenting pain, anxiety, and depression were similar to all social groups. After treatment scores for residual pain were significantly lower in all social classes, with greatest reduction in classes III, IV, and V. Almost identical results were obtained in a subgroup of patients with cancer but not in a subgroup with sciatica. That patients from the lower social classes have a higher perception of pain and are more neurotic than other group is a myth, probably resulting from poor communication between clinicians and patients of dissimilar socioeconomic class. 相似文献

Cells recovered from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and tissue sections from transbronchial lung biopsies were studied in 16 patients with symptomatic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) and in six subjects with a similar history of exposure but without features of disease by using a series of monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) detecting different lymphocyte subpopulations, including T and T subsets, B lymphocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells. Their functional activities in cytotoxic and suppressor assays and the microenvironment in the lung by using immunohistological techniques were also evaluated. It has been demonstrated that the majority of cells recovered from BAL of HP patients are represented by T8 lymphocytes, with a relevant imbalance of the T4/T8 ratio (p less than 0.001). HNK-1+ cells were markedly increased (p less than 0.001), whereas the frequency of cells bearing other NK-related markers (NK-15, VEP 13, Ab8.28, T10, M1, and Fc gamma R) were not significantly increased with respect to controls. Immunohistological study confirmed that the majority of cells infiltrating lung parenchyma are T8+ lymphocytes. The number of HNK-1+ cells detected on lung biopsies was very low in all cases, even in patients with the highest values on BAL suspensions. The evidence of cells bearing the proliferation-associated markers (Tac and T9 antigens) seems to support the hypothesis of a local proliferation in the lung. In terms of phenotypic analysis, the results observed in the group of asymptomatic individuals are qualitatively superimposable on those observed in the HP group, but the magnitude of the phenomenon is less prominent and therefore the data are not as statistically significant as that produced by the comparison between HP patients and the same controls. Functional analysis of BAL T cells from both HP patients and asymptomatic individuals showed suppressor activity in vitro, as determined by the ability to influence a pokeweed mitogen (PWM)-driven B cell differentiation assay. BAL cells from HP patients were also able to display a definite cytotoxic function in vitro, whereas BAL lymphocytes from asymptomatic subjects did not. Taken together, these data demonstrated that cells responsible for the alveolitis in patients with HP are characterized by the expansion of T cells with the phenotype and functions of both suppressor and/or cytotoxic lymphocytes. This expansion is likely to be related to a local immunologic response to the antigenic stimulus and may provide new insights into the pathogenetic mechanisms of this disease, its pathological pattern, and its management. 相似文献

A phenological study on allergenic plants was carried out in Padua during 1995 in order to identify spontaneous and cultivated
allergenic species in an urban area and their distribution, and to evaluate the relationship between anthesis length and airborne
pollen concentrations. In some cases, there was no temporal overlap between phenological and aerobiological data, in particular
forCorylaceae, Betulaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Amaranthaceae, Polygonaceae and Fagaceae. 相似文献

New metallopolymers were generated efficiently on Pt and ITO (indium-tin oxide) glass slides by repeated scan oxidation of Ru and Fe complexes containing pyrrolostyryl bipyridine ligands. The UV-Vis spectrum and voltammogram of Ru-based polymer films showed blue-shifts of the MLCT absorption bands and increased oxidation potentials indicating conjugation cut in the π-extended system. In contrast, formation of polypyrrole occurred in Fe-based polymers due to oxidation of pyrrole groups by the initially oxidised metal centres. The coated ITO electrodes displayed promising wide absorption domains for use in light conversion devices. 相似文献

Over recent decades, parasitic diseases have been increasingly considered a sanitary and economic threat to Mediterranean aquaculture. In order to monitor the distribution of parasites in cultured marine fish from Italy and study their pathogenic effects on the host, a three-year survey based on parasitological and histopathological exams was carried out on 2141 subjects from eleven fish species and coming from different farming systems (extensive, intensive inland farms, inshore floating cages, offshore floating cages and submersible cages). A number of parasitic species was detected, mostly in European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata), mullets (Chelon labrosus, Mugil cephalus, Liza ramada) and sharpsnout sea bream (Diplodus puntazzo), with distribution patterns and prevalence values varying in relation to the farming system, in-season period and size category. The epidemiology and pathological effects of the parasites found during the survey are discussed. 相似文献

During recent years a gradual decrease inallergenic airborne pollen concentration hasbeen observed in the monitoring station ofPadua (Italy). Because technical checks of thesampler were not able to explain this trend,the results obtained from two twinpollen-samplers (Lanzoni VPPS 2000), placed twometres apart, were compared.An eight-week sampling was carried out duringthe year 2000 from July to September.Subsequent analysis revealed no statisticallysignificant difference between the dataobtained with the two instruments. On the otherhand, both samplers captured high levels offungal spores. We conclude that the observednegative trend in pollen count is real and notrelated to technical biases. 相似文献

Genome‐wide signatures of flowering adaptation to climate temperature: Regional analyses in a highly diverse native range of Arabidopsis thaliana 下载免费PDF全文

Current global change is fueling an interest to understand the genetic and molecular mechanisms of plant adaptation to climate. In particular, altered flowering time is a common strategy for escape from unfavourable climate temperature. In order to determine the genomic bases underlying flowering time adaptation to this climatic factor, we have systematically analysed a collection of 174 highly diverse Arabidopsis thaliana accessions from the Iberian Peninsula. Analyses of 1.88 million single nucleotide polymorphisms provide evidence for a spatially heterogeneous contribution of demographic and adaptive processes to geographic patterns of genetic variation. Mountains appear to be allele dispersal barriers, whereas the relationship between flowering time and temperature depended on the precise temperature range. Environmental genome‐wide associations supported an overall genome adaptation to temperature, with 9.4% of the genes showing significant associations. Furthermore, phenotypic genome‐wide associations provided a catalogue of candidate genes underlying flowering time variation. Finally, comparison of environmental and phenotypic genome‐wide associations identified known (Twin Sister of FT, FRIGIDA‐like 1, and Casein Kinase II Beta chain 1) and new (Epithiospecifer Modifier 1 and Voltage‐Dependent Anion Channel 5) genes as candidates for adaptation to climate temperature by altered flowering time. Thus, this regional collection provides an excellent resource to address the spatial complexity of climate adaptation in annual plants. 相似文献

The effects of a single 10 mg oral dose of nitrazepam were compared with those of a placebo in healthy young and old people. Both the young and the elderly slept better on three successive nights after nitrazepam but they felt less awake at 12 and 36 hours (P less than 0-01). Elderly people made significantly more mistakes in a psychomotor test than did the young, despite similar plasma concentrations of nitrazepam and half lives in the two groups. This difference in response to psychomotor testing is probably explained by an increased sensitivity of the ageing brain to the action of nitrazepam. 相似文献
