[SSS method for screening cDNA library].

Abstract

A quick and simple method subsection screening (SSS) method for screening cDNA library by PCR was established. With this method, cDNA phage plate was cut into several blocks and a couple of primers was designed according to target gene. And then the target genes were obtained by screening cDNA library. Comparing with other methods,this method has many advantages such as controlled range and clear target,and also quick and simple for obtaining the target genes. It is possible to get a target gene in one week in general by this method. Thus,the CHI gene, F3'H gene, HSP gene and one HSP partial fragment, were obtained respectively in half month in our lab. We can get twice the result with half the effort when we screen several genes in the same time. It is also suitable to screen other libraries.

[Depression and the risk of Alzheimer's disease].

A population based cohort study consisting of 3346 participants aged 65-84 years was examined at baseline (1992-94) and after two and five years. The purpose was to examine whether a history of depression increased the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). History of depression was based on self-report and AD was diagnosed according to NINCDS-ADRDA. Logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR (95% confidence interval)). Subjects with a history of depression had an increased risk of AD: Baseline (OR = 1,7 (1,0-2,7)); after two years (1,9 (1,0-3,3)); after five years (1,6 (0,9-2,7)).

[Airway malacia: not uncommon in children with atypical respiratory symptoms].

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of primary airway malacia at birth, determine the predictive value of a clinical diagnosis of airway malacia compared with bronchoscopy results and describe the presenting symptoms. DESIGN: Retrospective descriptive study. METHOD: We reviewed the results of all bronchoscopies performed in the period 1997-2004 at the Erasmus MC-Sophia Children's Hospital, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and the standardised status assessment of children diagnosed with primary airway malacia. RESULTS: A total of 512 bronchoscopies were performed. Primary airway malacia was diagnosed in 136 children (80 boys) with a median age of 4.3 years (range: 0-17). The prevalence of primary airway malacia at birth was estimated at approximately 1 in 2100. A diagnosis of probable airway malacia based on symptoms, patient history and targeted assessment of pulmonary function proved to be correct in 74% of patients. However, airway malacia was not suspected before bronchoscopy in 52% of patients. The symptoms were atypical and included: cough, recurrent airway infections, dyspnoea, wheezing and reduced exertional tolerance. The peak expiratory flow was more affected than the forced expiratory volume in 1 second value. CONCLUSION: Primary airway malacia occurs in an estimated 1 out of 2100 children and is difficult to recognise based on patient history and symptoms. Bronchoscopy should be considered to rule out airway malacia in patients with unexplained exertional intolerance, recurrent lower airway infections, or with 'atypical' or 'treatment-resistant' asthma.

[Patient injuries in response to anaesthetic procedures: cases evaluated by the Danish Patient Insurance Association--secondary publication].

We investigated the Danish Patient Insurance Association files of patients, who were given financial compensation, because of an injury caused by an anaesthetic procedure. In the six-year-period 1996-2002, 374 patients were compensated in total 8.0 million euros for an injury caused by an anaesthetic procedure. Some anaesthetic complications may result in severe disability, whereby the financial compensation to the suffering patients is high. We estimate that approximately 0.2 per 1,000 of all patients receiving anaesthesia may develop complications that entitle them to financial compensation.
