Objective To observe the proportion changes of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ T cells in peripheral blood of patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease(VKH)before and after one month of treatment. Methods The peripheral blood samples from 15 patients with VKH disease before and after one month of treatment by glucocorticoid,and from 15 healthy volunteers were collected,and lymphoeytes were separated from them.CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells were Iabeled by antibodies of cell surface marker CD4、CD25 and transcription factor FOXP3.The proportion of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ T cells were detected by flow cytometry. Results Before the treatment,the percentage of CD4+ CD25+FOXP3+ T cells in periphery blood was(0.30±0.19)%of CD4+ cell in VKH patients,and(1.41±0.52)%in control group,the difference was statistically significant(t=7.665,P＜0.01);after one month of treatment,the VKH patients group was(1.28±0.54)%which close to the control group.However there were two patients whose CD4+ CD25+ T cells inereased extraordinarily after one month of treatment. Conclusions The proportion of CD4+ CD25+ FOCP3+ T cells in periphery blood in VKH patients were lower than control group obviously before treatment,but were close to eontrol group after treatment.Those results indicated that VKH diseases may be associated with the decreased proportion of CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells.

ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy of an antibiotic ertapenem for the treatment of bacterial liver abscess. MethodThe clinical data of 134 hospitalized bacterial liver abscess patients were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of ertapenem from March 2009-2011in our hospital. ResultFever was present in 122 (91％)cases,abdominal pain was complained in 70 (52.2％ ) cases and rigor in 66 (49.3％ ) cases.In 92(68.7％ ) cases the abscess was located in the right lobe of the liver.Leukocytosis and liver dysfunction were found in 73 cases(54.8％ ) and 84 cases (62.7％ ),respectively.Ultrasonography was the most effective diagnostic means for liver abscess.Fortyone cases(30.6％ )were treated conservatively with ertapenem and 82(61.2％ )were treated with ertapenem associated with percutaneous liver puncture aspiration and 11cases (8.2％ )were treated with ertapenem associated with surgery.The clinical success rate was respectively 89％,87.8％,90.9％.The average duration of medication and length of stay were respectively ( 7.0 ± 2.4 ) d and 14.2 d.Ninety-seven pathogens were isolated from samples and predominant strains were Klebsiella species.Bacterial eradication rate was 92.8％.The sensitivities of isolated bacteria to ertapenem were 94.8％.ConclusionsErtapenem administration is effective therapy for bacterial liver abscess.
