Objective To evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of posttransplantation metabolic syndrome(PTMS)in liver transplant recipients.Methods According to NCEP-ATP Ⅲ(2001)standard,we assessed for the presence of PTMS in 102 transplant recipients which have lived ≥ 5 yesrs after liver transplantation.Age ≥ 50 years,the male sex,history of smoking,preoperative obesity,preoperative hypertension,preoperative diabetes,and preoperative hypertriglyceridemia were selected for evaluation.Predictors for PTMS were tested using Logistic regression analysis.Results Among 102 patients assessed,the prevalence of PTMS was 51.9％ compared with 29.3％ pretransplant level.Obesity(body mass index ＞ 28 kg/m2),hypertriglyceridemia(＞ 1.7 mmol/L),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ＜ 1.0 mmol/L(men)or ＜ 1.3 mmol/L(women),hypertension,and diabetes were significantly more common in patients after transplantation.The independent factors associated with PTMS were older age,preoperative obesity and preoperative diabetes.Conclusions PTMS is highly prevalent among transplant recipients,older age(＞ 50 years),preoperative obesity and preoperative diabetes are among the risk factors for PTMS.

Objectives To determine the incidence of de novo neoplasms after liver transplantation and methods of prevention.Methods The clinical data of 605 patients after liver transplantation carried out from May 2000 to December 2010 in our centre were analysed.The patient's gender,age,primary disease and the clinical characteristics of post-transplantation de novo neoplasms were analysed.Results The incidence of de novo post-transplantation neoplasms was 1.80％.There was one case of post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD),one case of pulmonary blastoma,one case of acute myelogenous leukemia,one case of bladder tumor,one case of gastric carcinoma,one case of sigmoid colon carcinoma,one case of carcinoma of rectum,one case of renal clear cell carcinoma and two cases of hepatocellular carcinoma.Conclusion There was a low incidence of de novo posttransplantation neoplasm in our centre than that reported in the West,probably because of variations in patient selection,immunosuppression regimens used,patients' age and different patient ethnic groups.Early diagnosis and treatment of de novo neplasm helped to improve prognosis.

Objective To summary the experience of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) in order to improve therapeutic effect of LDLT. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of donors and recipients of 22 LDLT cases, evaluating patients' and donors' preoperative assessment, surgical strategies and postoperative complications. Results Donor's grafts harvested included 2 left lateral lobes, 6 left half livers, 1 extended left half liver, 5 right half livers and 8 extended right half livers. Postoperatively all donors recovered without severe post-transplantation complications. Among 13 adult and 9 child receipients, there were 8 recipients suffering from posttransplantation complications, including intra-abdominal severe infection in one case, delayed liver function recovery complicating incisional infection in one case, intra-abdominal hemorrage complicating thrombogenesis of the hepatic artery in one case. All these 3 patients died. One child recipient of hepatic failure died of heart and respiratory failure after operation. Other non-lethal complications were bile leakage in 2 cases, refractory ascites in one and deep venous thrombosis of the lower limb in one. These complications were cured without laparotomy. Finally 18 recipients were fully recovered and discharged. Late post-operative complications included strictures of biliary tract in 3 cases which were treated with PTCD and indwelling stent, the obstructive jaundice due to achalasia of sphincter of Oddi was treated with endoscopic sphincterotomy. These 4 patients' are on stable condition and the liver function is normal. Conclusions Select proper donor and optimal surgical strategy are extremely helpful to secure donors and recipients during the procedure of LDLT.

Objective To analyse the effect of antivirus treatment on the survival time of chronic severe hepatitis B retrospectively.Methods one hundred and twenty-one patients with chronic severe hepatitis B and positive HBV DNA were divided into 3 groups:42 patients in entecavir(ETV)group,34 patients in lamivudine(LVD)group and 45 patients in control group.The primary data were recorded and followed.The survival curve was described using Kaolain-Maier method.The comparison of survival rate among groups was done using Logrank test.Results The baseline characteristics were well balanced among 3 groups.When the follow-up ended,the mean survival time of ETV group,LVD group and control group was(49.4±5.8)weeks,(51.6±6.7)weeks,(32.8±5.7)weeks;the total survival rate was 0.567,0.557,0.318 respectively,there was a statistical difference between ETV group and control grouP(χ2=5.742,P<0.05),or between LVD group and control group (χ2=5.472,P<0.05).There was not statistical difference between ETV group and LVD group in the week of 2,4,8,12,24,48.Conclusion ETV and LVD can improve the survival rate of chronic severe heoatitis B,and ETV iS not different from LVD.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of 17β-estradiol on ischemia reperfusion injury in rat liver transplantation. Methods The rats were divided into three groups: male to male group(MG), female to female group (FG), and male to male group which were given 17β-estradiol 4000 μg/kg 24 hours before liver transplantation intraperitoneally (M + EG). Then transplantation was performed. At 6 hours after portal vein reperfusion, blood samples were obtained to determine the levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and nitric oxide(NO). The expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in liver were observed by immunohistochemistry. Results ALT and AST levels in the M+EG group were lower than those in MG and FG (561. 69 U/L vs 730. 78 U/L and 678. 82 U/L; 726. 44 U/L vs 914. 21 U/L and 861. 86 U/L). The NO level (63. 54 μmol/L) was much higher than those in the MG and FG groups. The expression of eNOS in the M+EG group was higher than those in MG and FG, while the expression of iNOS in M+EG were lower than those in MG. and FG. Conclusion 17β-estradiol can attenuate ischemia reperfusion injury in rat liver transplantation by improving the balance of eNOS and iNOS.

Objective To establish a model to predict the cell-cycle process in response to ionizing radiation.Methods Human choroidal malignant melanoma 92-1 cells were used and the cell cycle distribution of cells was analyzed in 0-96 h after exposure to X-rays.A phenomenological model was constructed based on biological knowledge to describe the cell cycle dynamics in experiments.Results In the present study,a phenomenological model was constructed to describe the cellcycle dynamics of synchronized 92-1 cells in responding to various doses of ionizing radiation.The simulation results obtained with the model were consistent with the experimental data,demonstrating that the model had a good expansibility and could be used to predict the dynamics of cell cycle in responding to ionizing radiation.Further theoretical modeling of the cellcycle dynamics was made and the results were consistent with the simulation.Conclusions A phenomenological model was constructed which could be used to describe the dynamics of cell cycle of cells exposed to ionizing radiation and was supported by the experimental data.Because this model is easy to run by the written code,it has a good expansibility for studying the behaviors of cell populations under various conditions.

Objective: To investigate the ictal epileptic activation using simultaneous electroencephalogram functional MRI(EEG-fMRI),and to study the neural mechanism and the roles of the cerebral cortex and subcortical structures in the generation and propagation of the epileptic activity.Methods: A patient with partial epilepsy was retrospectively found to have slight seizures during the simultaneous EEG-fMRI examination.Two sessions of the ictal functional MRI data were processed and analyzed using the general-linear model.Results: Consistent activation patterns were obtained from the two sessions of data.The positive activation was found over the bilateral parietal lobes,insula cortex,bilateral striatum,thalamus and some nuclei of the brain stem,as well as over the vermis and right cerebellar hemisphere.The maximum intensity point was in the left parietal lobe.Conclusion: The seizure activation is originated from the cerebral cortex,and then propagates through the reciprocal circuits made up of the cortex and the subcortical structures.The cerebral cortex and the brain stem reticular formation are the main structures that propagate the seizure to contralateral hemisphere.The subcortical structures play important roles in the seizure propagation and seizure manifestation.

Objective To improve diagnosis accuracy of pineocytoma (PC) by joint analysis of CT,MRI imaging features and differential diagnosis with other lesions in pineal region.Methods Totally 6 pineocytoma patients confirmed surgically and pathologically had their clinical history,CT and MRI data collected and analyzed on lesion morphology,cystic solid changes,existence of necrosis,complications of hemorrhage and or calcification,MRI and enhanced scan of solid component,complications with hydrocephalus and etc.Results Plain scan found 1 case of solid nodule and 5 cases of cystic-solid nodules,2 cases with clearly-bordered lesions and 4 one not as well as 4 cases with significant hydrocephalus and 2 ones with light hydrocephalus.Enhanced scan showed 5 cases of moderate to marked enhancement and one case with no obvious enhancement.CT examination proved there were 1 case of calcification and 1 case of hemorrhage.Conclusion Pineocytoma has the characteristics of benign tumor,and has to be differentiated with other tumors frequently occurring in this region in case of obvious clinical signs due to crushing brain parenchyma or blocking aqueduct cerebri by oversized lesions.
