They occur in adults of 60 years of age or more. The objective of this work is to describe the clinical-pathological characteristics, the immunophenotype and the differential diagnosis. Clinical Case: From the files of the surgical pathology unit we found four cases of primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma of the central nervous system in a 6-year period. Three corresponded to women over 47 years of age and the other to a 42-year-old man. The time of evolution was between 2 and 4 months. The symptoms were headache, blurred vision, hemiparesis, and seizures. Localization was in the pineal region, the frontal, parietal regions, and the right thalamus. Morphologically, large lymphoid cells with a diffuse growth pattern and necrosis were observed. Immunohistochemical markers, such as CD 20 and bcl2 were positive, one was positive to CD3. Expression of bcl6 and CD 10 was positive in one case, and MUM-1 was positive in three cases. All the cases were negative for Epstein-Barr virus. Conclusions: The diffuse large-B cell lymphoma of the central nervous system is rare. Its average age of presentation is at 60 years or older. The localization is in the pineal, frontal, parietal and thalamic regions. Three cases were originated by activated B lymphocyte (MUM-1 expression) and other from the Germinal Center (GC) (CD 10 expression). The clinical course was bad. The four patients died shortly after the diagnosis.展开更多

Furthermore, it is proved that Ihe turbulent transport coefficients are in proportion to Ihe corresponding linear phenomenological coefficients. But the experimental facts show that the linear phenomenological relations are not (tenable in the atmospheric mixing layer because the turbulenl transport process is an intense non-linear process in the mixing layer. Hence the convection boundary layer is a thermodynamic stale in a non-linear region far from the equilibrium state. The geostrophic wind is a special cross-coupling phenomenon between the dynamic process and the thermodynamic process in the atmospheric system. It is a practical exemplification of a cross-coupling phenomenon in the atmospheric system.展开更多

Analysis of the effect on conduction system of these drugs was also performed. Methods Forty three patients with AF were randomly assigned to receive intravenous therapy with 0.25mg/kg diltiazem (n = 21) or 0.4rag cedilanid-D (n = 22). If not effective at 120 minutes (〈 20% decrease in pretreatment ventricular rate or can not convert to sinus rhythm= another dose of diltiazem or 0.2mg cedilanid-D was administered. Blood pressure and electrocardiographic recordings were performed before and after 5, 10, 20, 30, 60 minutes of drug administration. Further recordings were performed at 120 minutes in noneffective patients, and at 180 minutes in patients who received second time drug administration. To evaluate the effect on conduction system of these two drugs by measuring PA, AH and HV intervals using His bundle electrogram test another nineteen sinus rhythm patients were randomized to dihiazem (n=9) and cedilanid (n= 10) group. His bundle electrogram recordings were performed before and after 5, 10, 20 and 30 minutes of drug administration. Statistical significance was assessed with the use of t test, Fisher's exact test, ANOVA and LSD methodology. Results At baseline and after 5, 10, 20, 30, 60 minutes of drug administration the heart rates (mean±SD) were(133±15), (92±20), (87±22), (85 ±20), (85±21), (85 ±23)beats/minute in diltiazem group respectively and( 140±21 ), ( 122±24), (118±25), (110±26), (112±25), (110±28) beats/ minute in cedilanid-D group respectively. Heart rate reduction was higher in diltiazem group than cedilanid group during 5 (41±20 vs 17±14,P 〈 0.01); 10 (46±21 vs 22±20, P〈0.01); 20 (48±21 vs 29±22, P〈0.01 ) ; 30(48±22 vs 27±22,P〈0.01 )and 60 minutes (48±23 vs 29±24, P〈 0.05). Both drugs had no effect on both systolic and diastolic blood pressure (P 〉0.05) and no major side effects were noticed. Diltiazem maintained effective ventrieular rate in 20 patients, whereas eedilanid-D maintained in 15 patients within 180 minutes (95.2%vs 68.2%,P〈 0.05). There were no statistical significance in baseline heart rate, age and weight between the two groups. Both diltiazem and cedilanid-D can increase AH interval, but have no effect on HV and PA intervals in sinus rhythm patients. Conclusions Both dihiazem and eedilanid-D decrease ventrieular heart rate, but heart rate reduction is significantly higher in diltiazem group, thus should be considered as a drug of choice for emergency control of ventrieular rate. Under clinical monitoring this dose of diltiazem seems to be safe and applicable in AF patients with congestive heart failure. Both drugs have no effect on PA and HV intervals but increase the AH interval thereby can reduce ventricular rate.展开更多
