Objective To investigate the therapeutic effectiveness and safety of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in the treatment of chronic allograft dysfunction (CAD).Methods Seventy-eight patients with CAD were administrated with MMF substituting for Aza or CTX with concomitant low-dose CsA. The effectiveness and complications were analyzed. The mean follow-up time after MMF treatment was 9.48 months.Results After treatment with MMF in combination with low doses of CsA and Pred,the serum creatinine concentration (SCr) in 74 CAD patients was significantly decreased and remained stable at the end of follow-up ( P

Heart transplantation(HT) has been an effective method to treat end-stage heart disease, one main factor affecting the long-term survival rate is acute and/or chronic rejection after HT. Trans internal jugular endomyocardial biopsy(EMB) has been the "gold standard" to judge the rejection after HT, but it is also limited. Electrocardiogram ,echocardiogram, immunological monitoring and imaging monitoring can judge the rejection after HT and induce the EMB.

Objective:To establish a method to determine benzoic in ibuprofen suspension. Methods:The determination of ben-zoic was performed on a Kromasil C18 (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) column with the mobile phase consisting of 0. 05 mol·L-1 monopo-tassium phosphate and acetonitrile (72 ∶28). The detection wavelength was 235 nm and the column temperature was 30℃. The injec-tion volume was 10μl. Results:The limit of detection was 3. 57 ng and benzoic had a good linear relationship within the range of 12. 5-200. 0 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9). The solution was stable in 24 hours. The average recovery was 98. 42% and RSD was 0. 98% (n=9) . Conclusion:The method is simple, repeatable and accurate, and can be used for the determination of benzoic in ibuprofen sus-pension.

Several comparative studies on anti-implantation and estrogenicities of noret histerone oxime(NETO)and norethisterone(NET) or ethynyl estradiol (EE2)were carried out in order to clarify their relationships. It was observed that NETO was showed much stronger potency than NET, which the anti-implantation, uterotrophic and vaginal cornifi-cation effect were 25, 26, and 21 times, respectively. The ratio of anti-implantation to vaginal cornification of NETO was 14-fold stronger than that of EE2. These results suggest that the increased antiimplantative activity of NETO is related to its stronger estrogenic activity, but other mechanisms contribute to the anti-implantation besides estragenicity.

Sequential monitoring of the levels of serum interleukin-2(IL-2),soluble interleukin-2 receptor(sIL-2R)and interleukin-6(IL-6)were conducted in 60 patients for 2 months after renal transplantation.The results showed that the levels of serum IL-2,sIL-2R and IL-6 were increased significantly several days prior to the clinical diagnosis in the patients with acute rejection,which were much higher than those in CsA-induced nephrotoxicity group.The levels of IL-2,slL-2R and IL-6 in the patients with rejection sensible to methylprednisolone came down to the pre-rejection levels several days after the treatment.It was concluded that sequential monitoring of serum IL-2,sIL-2R and IL-6 of renal allograft recipients are helpful for the early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of acute rejection as well as the evaluation of methylprednisolone in the treatment of antirejection.

0.05);but adding active virus,it was strongly positive;the results were obviously higher than those of the other 3 groups,respectively(P0.05).Conclusion When infected with CMV,the expression of ICAM1 increased obviously.CMV caused rejection reaction mainly by inducing the increase of the expression of ICAM-1 in endothelial cells.

Objective To study the blood flow dynamic c hanges after mitral valve replacement(MVR) operation in patients with mitral valve stenosis by color Doppler echocardiography. Methods Thirty-seven- patients with mitral stenosis after MVR operation were analyzed with color Doppler echocardiography retrospectively, the observed items including dimension of left atrium, tricuspid valve backflow velocity, pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PAPS) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF).Relativity analysis was conducted between PAPS and trans-mitral valve pressure(MV?P). Results All the patients survived healthy, the average follow-up time was 15.8- months. The follow-up data suggested that the dimension of left atrium, tricuspid valve backflow velocity and PAPS decreased significantly while LVEF increased significantly to the pre-operation. PAPS was in positive correlation with MV?P and the difference between PAPS and MV?P increased according to MV?P.Conclusions MVR can ameliorate flow dynamics effectively in patients with mitral stenosis, PAPS is in positive correlation with MV?P, senior stenosis existed within pulmonary circulation in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of diltiaze in renal transplantation patients treated with cyclosporine A (CsA). Methods 1529 renal transplant cases were randomly ~divi -ded into experimental group 1 receiving CsA, Aza, Pred and Diltiaze, experimental group 2 receiving CsA, MMF, Pred and diltiaze, and control group receiving CsA, Aza and Pred without diltiaze. The dosage and blood concentrations of CsA, the outcome of renal transplant, the incidence of acute rejection, and the hepatic and renal toxicity were observed in the experimental groups and control group.Results The dosage of CsA in experimental group 1 was less, while the blood concentrations of CsA was higher than in control group (P~0.05 ). The recovery time of the graft function was cut down to 4.7 days (experimental group 1) and 3.9 days (experimental group 2) respectively with the difference being significant between the experimental groups and control group (P

Objective To study the effects of different dose 6 MV and 10 MV photons for classic conformal radiotherapy on cervical cancer patients with different height and weight,in order to provide guidance for clinical irradiation energy choosing for different patients.Methods Twenty-one recruited patients were divided into obese and non-obese group according to the body mass index (BMI).The 4-field classic conformal radiotherapy plans was designed and applied in both groups and the results were compared.Statistical analysis was carried out on the dosimetric parameters.Results The treatment plan of 10 MV photons could both reduce the maximum and minimum dose (Dmax and Dmin) of the target area PTV and increase the conformal and heterogeneity index (CI and HI),and change the median dose (D50) for non-obese patients,while it could not reduce the mean dose (Dmeen) for two groups.It was more effective in reducing Dmax and increasing HI for obese patients.The plan could also reduce the dose of organs at risk (OAR) near the PTV.Using 10 MV photons plan could more effectively reduce the low isodose volume of the patients and machine hops.Conclusions The 10 MV photons plan has many advantages in classic conformal radiotherapy for obese cervical cancer treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of no-tonch harvesting technique in reducing vein graft intimal hyperplasin. A4othods This longitudinal trial compared graft ungiestenosis of two groups undergoing jugular vein to carotid artery interposition grafting in rabbit model. Conventional group: 12 rabbits had their veins stripped, distended, and stored in heparinized saline solution. No-touch group: 12 rabbits had veins removed with surrounding tissues, but were not distended, and stored in heparinized blood. The grafts were removed 4 weeks following grafting, and morphometry and immunohistochemistry assessment were performed. Results The intimal thickness, degree of anginstennsis and proliferation index of vascular smooth muscle cells of no-touch group were significantly reduced (P< 0.01) compared with those of the conventional group. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen pnsitive-staining cells were significantly increased (P<0.01) in the conventional group compared with whose in the no-touch group. Conclusion Harvesting the vein graft with no-touch harvesting technique could significantly reduce intimul hyperpinsin of the vein graft.
