Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of alemtuzumab in renal transplant recipients treated with induction therapy. Methods Eighty-nine cadaveric renal transplant recipients in our department were randomly divided into experimental group (n = 43) treated with alemtuzumab induction, 15 mg i. v. and control group (n = 46). Main immunosuppressive therapy regimen consisted of steroids, tacrolimus or cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil in all recipients. Post-transplant kidney function, acute rejection,infection, DGF, graft survival, lymphocyte counts were recorded within 1 year. ATP values in CD4+ T cells after transplantation was determined by using Cylex ImmuKnow assay. Results There was significant difference in the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection, but no significant difference was found in ImmuKnow ATP values during 6 months after transplantation and lymphocyte counts during 3 months, graft survival and the incidence of infections between the two groups. Conclusion Induction therapy with alemtuzumab appeared to be effective in the prevention of acute rejection.

Objective To observe the effect of GLP-1 on HSP70 expression of rabbit thoracic aortic endothelial cells at high glucose level.Methods Rabbit thoracic aortic endothelial cells were isolated and cultured.Tunnel was used to assay endothelial cells apoptosis.Cell proliferation was analyzed with BUDR.The protein level of HSP70 were detected by Western blot.Results The proliferation of rabbit thoracic aortic endothelial cells cultured under high glucose (33 mmol/L) decreased,(0.54 ±0.06 vs 0.78 ±0.04,P < 0.01).The apoptosis and the protein level of HSP70 increased,(36.43% ± 6.85% vs 5.25% ±0.73%) and (0.94 ± 0.11 vs 0.29 ± 0.03,all P < 0.01).The proliferation of rabbit thoracic aortic endothelial cells (0.62 ± 0.06)in the GLP-1 group increased,the apoptosis ratio (10.13% ± 1.19%) and HSP70 expression (0.76 ± 0.05) decreased significantly (P < 0.05) compared with high glucose group.Conclusion GLP-1 can ameliorate high-glucose-induced rabbit thoracic aortic endothelial cells apoptosis and promote cell proliferation,attenuating high-glucose-induced level of HSP70 expression through the GLP-1 R-dependent pathways.

Objective To discuss existing problems in talent team construction; To provide evidence for the government to enact proper strategies based on the analysis of the current situation of TCM practitioners (assistants) distribution in China from quantity, quality and distribution equity. Methods The research is studied through conducting a descriptive analysis of TCM practitioners (assistants) from quantity, education, job titles, ages, and other basic conditions and changes. Gini coefficient was used to evaluate the distribution of TCM practitioners (assistants). Results The quantity of TCM practitioners (assistants) increased by 53.7% from 2010 to 2015. Concerning the quality of personnel, the ratio of the personnel with bachelors degree or above increased from 38.6% to 44.2%, and a slight increase was observed with the personnel with senior title. In terms of age structure, the proportion of the age of TCM practitioners (assistants) under 25 years old, 35 to 59 years old decreased, and the proportion of the age of TCM practitioners (assistants) above 60 years old, 25 to 34 years old increased. From the perspective of equity, there is a difference between the provincial-level administration of human resources distribution. The Gini coefficient as per population distribution was around 0.1, which indicated good equity. From the geographical area configuration, the Gini coefficient was approximately 0.58, which showed high level of disparity. Conclusion There are problems of insufficient quantity, low quality and distribution disparity among regions in TCM practitioners (assistant) in China.

Objective To stuay CT findings of adrenal gland trauma(AGT).Methods The CT images of adrenal gland trauma which were found in 1712 patients who had emergency abdominal CT examinations for assessment of blunt force trauma were analyzed restrospectively.Results Among 1712 cases.we identified 29 patients(1.7%)with adrenal gland traumatic lesions.A total of 32 lesions were found.Twenty-six lesions were unilateral(23 right-sided,3 left-sided),and 3 cases were bilateral(6 lesions).Main CT findings were as followed:(1)Adrenal hematomas appeared as discrete round or oval masses expanding the adrenal gland in 22 patients with 25 lesions.The lesions were hyperdense or of homogeneous density in plain scan and did not enhance in three-phase contrast-enhanced dynamic scan.The splayed adrenal limbs around hematoma were enhanced significantly as eurvilinear structures.(2)Mild to moderate uniform swelling of gland was shown in 4 cases.(3)Diffuse irregular hemorrhage obliterating the gland was shown in 3 cases.Contrast extravasation was shown in 1 case,which was active bleeding from the broken adrenal gland proven by operation.Associated CT findings included strand-like hemorrhage of the periadrenal fat and posterior pararenal hemorrhage mimicking thickened diaphragmatic crus.The concurrent injuries of ipsilateral thorax or/and abdomen were found in 25 patients.Conclusion The AGT has typical CT findings.Familiarity with characteristic CT findings of adrenal trauma is essential for the radiologist to avoid misdiagnosis.

Alemtuzumab (Campath) was successfully injected in 21 kidney transplant patients,7 islet transplant patients and 1 simultaneous kidney and islet transplant patient for either prevention or treatment of graft rejection.Prophylactic administration was successfully completed in all patients without discontinuation.Adverse events were not observed in 11 patients (38%),but hypertension in 18 patients (62%),shivering in 3 patients (10.3%),high fever in 3 patients (10.3%),and bronchospasm in 1 patient (3%),respectively.All complications alleviated after proper therapy.During the prophylactic administration of alemtuzumab,strict,timely and proper ward-management was needed.Care for lung,perineum,skin,diet and psychological nursing were necessary.Neither graft acute rejection nor graft chronic rejection episode occurred in all patients during 6 months to 2 years follow-up.Therefore,long term effects of Alamtuzumab and consequences of lymphocytopenia need further observation.

Objective To study the setup errors in three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) for thoracic esophageal carcinoma using electronic portal imaging device(EPID) and calculate the margins from CTV to PTV. Methods Forty-one patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma who received 3DCRT were continuously enrolled into this study. The anterior and lateral electronic portal images (EPI) were aquired by EPID once a week. The setup errors were obtained through comparing the difference between EPI and digitally reconstructed radiographs(DRR). Then the setup margins from CTV to PTV were calculat-ed. By using self paired design,22 patients received definitive radiotherapy with different margins. Group A: the margins were 10 mm in all the three axes;Group B: the margins were aquired in this study. The differ-ence were compared by Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results The margins from CTV to PTV in x,y and z axes were 8.72 mm, 10.50 mm and 5.62 mm, respectively. Between the group A and group B, the difference of the maximum dose of the spinal cord was significant(4638.7 cGy±1449.6 cGy vs. 4310.2 cGy±1528.7 cGy; t=5.48, P=0.000), and the difference of NTCP for the spinal cord was also significant (4.82%±5.99% vs. 3.64%±4.70%;Z=-2.70,P=0.007). Conclusions For patients with tho-racic esophageal carcinoma who receive 3DCRT in author's department,the margins from CTV to PTV in x, y and z axes were 8.72 mm, 10.50 mm and 5.62 mm, respectively. The spinal cord could be better protected by using these setup margins than using 10 mm in each axis.

Intraoperative cell salvage ( IOCS) was conducted during cesarean delivery from May 2011 to April 2016 in our hospital: when the volume of autologous blood collected from the surgical field≥800 ml during surgery and the parturients′hemoglobin≤100 g∕L after hemorrhage, the autologous blood was centrifuged, concentrated, washed and then filtered using a leucocyte depletion filter before reinfusion. IOCS was carried out in 1 085 cases during cesarean delivery within 5 yr. For the parturients who underwent IOCS, the percentage of patients who did not require transfusion of allogeneic red blood cells was 82.95%(900 cases), the percentage of patients who required plasma transfusion was 41.66% (452 cases), the percentage of patients who required platelet transfusion was 3.32% (36 cases), and no autologous blood transfusion?related adverse reactions were found during surgery and hospital stay. In conclusion, IOCS could be safely and effectively used for blood?saving effect in cesarean delivery.
