Objective To assess the efficacy of ganciclovir to prevent and cure cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after renal transplantation. Methods We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, SCI, China Academic Journals Full-text Databases, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese Scientific Journals Databases and Chinese Medical Association Journals to collect randomized controlled trials of ganciclovir to prevent and cure CMV infection after renal transplantation (up to June, 2009). Two reviewers extracted data independently using a designed extraction form. The quality of included trials was evaluated according to the Cochrane Handbook. RevMan 5.0 software was used for data analysis. Results Twelve randomized controlled trials were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: ①Compared with no receive antiviral agents, ganciclovir couldn't lower CMV infection rate and disease rate in 3 months and 6 months after renal transplantation, but could lower CMV disease rate in 12 months. The delay between transplantation and CMV infection was significantly longer. ②Either valaciclovir or ganciclovir could lower CMV infection rate and disease rate after renal transplantation, without statistical difference. ③Compared with acyclovir, ganciclovir could lower CMV disease rate in 6 months after renal transplantation. ④Compared with CMV-IgG and valganciclovir, ganciclovir didn't have statistical difference in decreasing CMV disease rate (P=0.93;P=0.14). Conclusions Longer prophylaxis by ganciclovior may prevent CMV infection after renal transplantation. Its curative effect is similar to valaciclovir, CMV-IgG and valganciclovir, but better than acyclovir.

Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound elastosonography in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis. Methods One hundred and twenty patients with chronic hepatitis B were examined by ultrasound elastosonography and given elasticity scores,the correlation coefficient between the elasticity scores and the histologic fibrosis stage was evaluated and its difference in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis was compared. Results The Spearman's correlation coefficient between the elasticity scores and the histologic fibrosis stage was 0. 875,which was highly significant ( P<0. 01). There was no significantly difference between elasticity scores and fibrosis staging in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis by Marginal Homogeneity (Z=- 1. 144, P = 0. 149). The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of ultrasonic elastography for diagnosing liver fibrosis were 92. 5%, 85.0%, 90.0%, respectively. Conclusions Elastosonography is helpful for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis.

BACKGROUND:A variety of factors contribute to biliary injury that is difficult to be repaired. Stent implantation is extensively used for bile duct injury, but either scaffolds made by metal or plastics can lead to certain adverse reactions. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biological characteristics of a novel biodegradable scaffold and its repair effects on bile duct injury. METHODS:The biological characteristics of the novel biodegradable scaffold were detected by fresh bile, and its degradation was observed at different time points. Thirty Bama mini pigs were included and were randomly divided into observation group (n=15) and control group (n=15). After bile duct injury models were prepared, the control group was subjected to the bile duct interrupted suture, while the observation group was subjected to the novel biodegradable scaffold combined with omentum majus. The biological properties of the scaffolds were observed. Hepatic enzymes and serum total bilirubin levels were detected, as wel as hematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson staining and immunohistochemistry detection ofα-smooth muscle actin were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Before and 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery, hepatic enzymes and total bilirubin of two groups were detected, and neither intra-group nor intergroup comparisons had significant differences (P>0.05). Hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson staining revealed that inflammatory reactions and fiber hyperplasia at the anastomotic site in the observation group were lighter than those in the control group at different time points after surgery. Theα-smooth muscle actin-positive scores in both two groups were in a rise at 1 and 3 months after surgery, and peaked at the 3rd month, and then began to decline. Moreover, theα-smooth muscle actin-positive scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at 3 and 6 months after surgery (P<0.05). These results show that the novel biodegradable scaffold has good biological characteristics and can obtain ideal repair effects in the bile duct injury.

measured to compare the correlation between the changes of T lymphocyte subsets before and after operation and the change of platelet. Results Thirty-one patients were underwent laparoscopic splenectomy. The T lymphocyte subsets and CD3 + ,CD4 + and CD3 + / CD4 + in all patients showed an increase trend as the time prolonged after operation,and the differences were significant( F = 6. 91,3. 93,4. 18;P = 0. 023,0. 004,0. 011). While the ratio of CD3 + / CD8 + and CD3 + CD4 + / CD3 + CD8 + were decreased as time increased,and differences were statistically significant( F = 2. 59,3. 67;P = 0. 001,0. 002). They were related with platelet change after operation and correlation statistics analysis showed R values were 0. 332,0. 271,0. 345,- 0. 119,- 0. 164,and the P value were 0. 039,0. 021,0. 002,0. 017,0. 023. Conclusion ITP patients have the imbalance of T lymphocyte subsets,and splenectomy can improve the imbalance of T lymphocyte subsets in patients with ITP. T lymphocyte subsets may serve as a reference index to indicate the prognosis of the patients.
