Objective To study the false positive of enzyme linked immunoinhibition continuous assays to detect CK-MB in clinic,to reasonably explain the results of detection and to get correctly the project of solving.Methods A total of 125 serum specimen of non-myocardial infarction patients were detected by enzyme linked immunoinhibition continuous assays,in retrospective study.To analyze the factors which made the CK-MB enzymatic activity unit pseudo-rising.Results Total CK-MB enzymatic activity was low in 86 serum specimen of adult patients with non-myocardial infarction,but in the patients with tumor,encephalic infarction and allergic disorder the pseudo-positive ratio of the CK-MB enzymatic activity was high.There were 53 cases, in which CK-MB activity accounted for 6%-21% enzymatic activity of CK, and 6 cases accounted for more than 38% in 59 cases in which the CK-MB activity was more than 5% enzymatic activity of CK.In 38 neonate cases, the enzymatic activity of CK ranged from 145U/L to 1974U/L,In 1 case of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome CK-MB activity accounted for more than 90% enzymatic activity of CK.Another haemolytic sample led to false positive result.Conclusion The phenomenon of enzymatic activity rising in the serum specimen of non-myocardial infarction patients may be caused by the factors of lots CK, CK-BB and AK in serum.Those materials maybe have effects on the action between McAb and M subunit of the CK.Some non-inhibit CK-M and the M subunit with B subunit may participate the enzymatic activity together.Because of the shortcoming of method,the single assay should not be taken as the diagnostic basis.

Objective To investigate immune status changes in liver transplant patients suffering from early developed sepsis.Methods In this study 19 patients undergoing liver transplantation for severe hepatitis from Oct 2008 to Jul 2009 were enrolled.Immune status was compared between patients of severe hepatitis and 20 healthy volunteers.According to whether early sepsis developed or not,patients were divided into sepsis group (HSS) and non-sepsis group (HSNS).T lymphocyte subgroups of the peripheral blood were compared between post-transplant and pre-transplant in these two groups on different stages.Results Comparing to volunteers,T％ and IFN-γ/IL-4 of severe hepatitis patients significantly decreased,CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg( ％ ),Foxp3 mRNA and IL-10 significantly increased.Early sepsis developed in 9 patients.Compared with pre-transplant levels,T％ in both groups significantly decreased on the first day post transplant.T％ in HSNS group increased to the level of pretransplant while T％ of HSS group remained at the low level.Treg％ ( t =3.265,P =0.004 ) and Foxp3 mRNA ( t =2.750,P =0.013 ) of HSNS group on day 14 decreased significantly lower than that before transplantation.Those two parameters of HSS group even increased slightly.IFN-γ/IL-4 in HSNS group increased significantly on day 3 (t =2.261,P =0.036),while there was no change in HSS group.The concentration of IL-10 in both groups significantly decreased,and the level in HSNS group remained at a low level,while that in HSS group increased on day 14.Conclusions Patients with severe hepatitis have weakened immune status.The imbalance of immune status recovers gradually since 7-14 days after transplantation in patients uncomplicated with sepsis.However,the immune status of receipients complicated with sepsis fails to improve.

Objective To observe the effects of different anesthetic techniques on T-lymphocyte subsets in patients with cardia cancer. Methods Thirty-two patients undergoing elective radical operation for cardia cancer who had been average assigned into two groups by random digits table, group Ⅰ :general anesthesia;group Ⅱ :epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia (16 cases in each group).Peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets were measured before induction, after anesthesia, end of operation, 1d,3 d after operation. Results CD3,CD4,CD8 and CD4/CD8 all decreased in two groups after anesthesia,end of operation and 1 d after operation than before induction (P < 0.05). The index almost returned to the baseline values at 3 d after operation in group Ⅱ [ (60.75 ± 4.22 )%, (39.65 ± 3.64)%, (25.90 ± 1.17 )%,1.57 ±0.15](P >0.05),while in group Ⅰ still lower [(55.83 ±5.20)%, (35.15 ±5.65)%, (23.00 ±1.03 )%, 1.47 ± 0.35 ](P< 0.05 ). The two groups ontrast had significant deviation at 3 d after operation (P<0.05). Conclusion Epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia can reduce depression of Tlymphocyte subsets induced by surgical trauma and anesthesia.

Objective To observe pathological features of liver injury induced by Helicobacter hepaticus ( H.hepaticus) and the difference between male and female BALB/cCr mice.Methods Fifty SPF-class BALB/cCr mice (25 males and 25 females) were administrated by gavage with 0.2 mL bacterial suspension (1 ×108 CUF/ml) of H.hepaticus standard strain ATCC 51450 for 3 times with 48 h intervals. The control group (25 males and 25 females) received same volume of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Mice were sacrificed in batches ( n=5) after fasting for 12 h at month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) was used to determine the serum level of H.hepaticus IgG antibodies.Liver tissue samples were taken for histopathology examiantion, micro-aerobic bacteria isolation, culture and identification.t test was used to analyze the differences in serum levels of H.hepaticus IgG antibody and liver histopathologic scores between different time points and groups. Results The seroprevalance of H. hepaticus-IgG antibody in male BALB/cCr mice infected with H.hepaticus were all positive, peaked at 6 month, and then gradually declined.H.hepaticus-IgG antibody levels at 3, 6, 9 and 12 month were higher than that at 1 month (t=2.828, 4.300, 3.536 and 4.500, P<0.05).Only one female BALB/cCr mouse infected with H.hepaticus was positive for H.hepaticus-IgG antibody at 9 and 12 month.H.hepaticus colonization in liver was observed in male BALB/cCr mice infected with H.hepaticus since month 3, while it was not observed in female BALB/cCr mice.Compared with femle mice, the histopathologic scores of liver in male mice infected were much higher at all time points (t=2.598,7.770,7.987,10.850 and 12.260, P<0.05 or P<0.01) .Liver histopathologic scores increased in male mice as infection time extended within 6 months (t=4.949, P<0.01), but not during 6 and 12 month (t=1.052, P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with female mice, H.hepaticus colonization and histopathologic changes in liver are more significant in male BALB/cCr mice infected with H.hepaticus, and the histological scores are increased as infection time extended.

Objective To determine the effects of different anesthetic techniques on T-lymphocyte subsets in patients with esophageal carcinoma. Methods Forty patients were randomly assigned into general anesthesia group (group Ⅰ),or combined generae anesthesia with epidural anesthesia group(group Ⅱ). Peripheral blood CD3, CD4,CD8 were measured before induction ( T1 ), after anesthesia ( T2 ), end of operation ( T3 ), 1d ( T4 ), 3d ( T5 ) after surgery. Resolts CD3,CD4,CD8,CD4/CD8 decreased at T2 in the two groups. In group Ⅱ ,CD3,CD4,CD8,CD4/CD8 ratio almost returned to the baseline values at T4 ,while group Ⅰ did not. Conclusion Epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia can reduce depression of T-lymphocyte subsets induced by surgical trauma and anesthesia, and is the anesthetic tecnique of choice for cancer patients undergoing major operation.

Objective To investigate the prevention of gram-positive cocci infection by oral administration of vaBeomvcin after liver transplantation. Methods Eighty patients who underwent liver transplantation from September 2005 to September 2006 were divided into vaneomycin group and control group.All the patients were intravenously infused with piperacillin + tazobatam to prevent infection after liver transplantation.Patients in vancomycin group were given vancomycin orally in the first 7 days after liver transplantation and vancomycin concentration in the blood were measured at the same time.Infection and stool cocci and bacilli ratio of the patients in the 2 groups were observed.Results Seven patients in vancomycin group and 15 patients in control group(including 3 and 10 patients infected with methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus in each group)were infected with grampositive cocci,respectively,with statistical difference(x2=4.501,P＜0.05).Three patients in vancomycin group and 10 patients in control group presented with imbalance of gastrointestinal flora,with statistical difference (x2=4.501,P＜0.05).No statistical difference was found in the patients infected with gram-negative bacilli or fungi between the 2 groups(x2=0.065,0.251,P＞0.05).The vancomycin concentration was 0 in the blood of patients who simply took vancomycin.Conclusions It is safe and effective to take vancomycin orally to prevent gram-positive cocci infection and imbalance of gastrointestinal flora after liver transplantation.

[Objective] To investigate the incidence and risk factors for posttransplantation anemia (PTA) following kidney transplantation. [Methods] A retrospective cohort study reviewing the medical records of the patients who received a renal transplant at our center from January 2004 to June 2008 was performed. All possible risk factors for PTA were recorded. Outcomes among the patients with PTA were compared with those without PTA using t-test and chi-square analysis methods. Logistic regression analysis was done to rank the relative risk of potential variables and calculate the 95% CI. [Results] Prevalence of PTA in our center was 31.0% (hemoglobin <120 g/L or Hct< 0.38 for males, < 110 g/L or Hct < 0.35 for males). Univariate and Logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors for PTA after kidney transplantation were female (RR=8.738; 95%CI 2.558～29.853; P= 0.001), creatinine level (RR=1.035; 95%CI 1.018～1.052; P<0.001) and acute rejection (RR=19.827; 95%CI 2.056～191.19; P=0.01); [Conclusions] PTA is a frequent complication after kidney transplantation. Great attention should be paid to this complication considering its negative effect on graft function. Female, impaired renal function and acute rejection are risk factors of anemia in kidney transplantation recipients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of mycophenolate mofeil (MMF) combined with dose-decreased calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) in patients who received liver transplanation with chronic kidney malfunction.Methods28 liver transplant patients with chronic kidney malfunction were prospectively included in this study.MMF was initiated and the dose of the original immunosuppressive drug CNIs decreased.The change in renal function and adverse events were evaluated.ResultsOne patient was discontinued with MMF treatment because of serious myelosuppression.The other 27 patients were treated with MMF with a median of 30.8 months.The basal creatinine values and the basal creatinine clearance were ( 134.26 ± 27.25) μmol/1 and (57.70 ± 16.93) ml/min,respectively.The basal glomerular filtration rate was (53.91±11.63) ml/min.The creatinine values at 1,3,6,12,24 and 36 months were 124.30±28.27 (P=0.006),130.19±29.29 (P=0.174),125.49±38.18 (P=0.194),119.71±31.36 (P=0.010),137.43±42.55 (P＝0.804),and (139.04±39.80) μmol/L (P=0.916).And the creatinine clearance values at 1,3,6,12,24 and 36 months were 62.57±19.29 (P=0.008),61.18± 19.70 (P=0.086),64.27±22.82 (P=0.018),67.48±22.59 (P=0.002),57.18±19.55 (P=0.405),and (54.56±23.48) ml/minute (P=0.708),respectively.The glomerular filtration rate at 1,3,6,12,24 and 36 months were 59.20 ± 14.05 (P=0.006),56.61±14.01 (P=0.04),60.47±17.33 (P=0.016),63.59±17.66 (P=0.002),53.75±13.60 (P=0.369),and (51.70±16.07) ml/min (P＝0.703).One patient (3.7％) had mild acute rejection.5 patients (18.5 ％ ) had mild abdominal distention or diarrhea.2 patients (7.4％) had ischemic cholangitis.No patient had cytomegalo virus infection or tumor recurrence.ConclusionIn liver transplant recipients with chronic renal dysfunction,MMF allowed CNIs dose reduction or discontinuation,improved or stabilized renal function in most patients and it had only mild adverse events.

Objective To explore the relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV) concentration and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence in HCC patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods 148 HCC patients associated with HBV infection undergoing OLT were enrolled in the study.Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method.Cox multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the parameters predicting HCC recurrence. Results Survival rates at 1,3 and 5 years were 86%,72% and 72%,respectively,and disease-free survival rate were 79%,71% and 54%,respectively.In this series 43 patients suffered from HCC recurrence.The recurrence rate was 29.1%(43/148),with the mean recurrence time being (13.16 ± 14.17) months (1 ～ 54 months).Exceeding Milan criteria (HR = 9.89; 95% CI 2.30 ～ 42.52; P = 0.002) and pretransplant HBV DNA level ＞ 5log10copies/ml (HR = 2.26; 95% CI 1.01 ～ 5.04; P = 0.047) were significant independent predictors for posttransplant HCC recurrence. Conclusion High HBV DNA load before transplantation is statistically associated with recurrence of HCC after liver transplantation.
