8.Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Synodrome
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2006;0(12):-
The etiology of reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome(RPLS)is more complex.Its pathogenesis has a lot of controversies,and its clinical manifestations are headache, nausea,vomiting,epileptic seizure,consciousness disturbance and visual abnormality.Neuroim- aging examinations have shown that diffuse symmetrical white matter edema is predominantly in the bilateral posterior brain regions.Clinical symptoms and neuroimaging changes can be recov- ered completely after timely and effective treatment.If the treatment is delayed,it may compli- cate with cerebral infarction or hemorrhage,and lead to irreversible damage.

OBJECTIVE To study the HBV-DNA level and its replication with only HBsAb positive for transplantation. METHODS Serial serum samples were studied with the quantitative determination of HBV-DNA by a quantitative PCR assay and determination of HBsAb by ELISA. RESULTS The positive rate of HBV-DNA was 8.4% in the patients with only HBsAb positive and that was 11.11% in the patients who had not been injected with vaccine;the level of HBV-DNA in 11 samples was less than 10~4 copies/ml and five samples showed the amount between 10~4-10~6 copies/ml.The positive rate of HBV-DNA was 8.4% in the patients with only HBsAb positive and that was 11.11% in the patients who had not been injected with vaccine;the level of HBV-DNA in 11 samples was less than 10~4 copies/ml and five samples showed the level between 10~4-10~6 copies/ml. CONCLUSIONS Patients with only HBsAb positive are still infective,which should be paid attention in transplantation.

Objectives To study the FLT3 gene expression and its internal tandem duplication(ITD) mutation in acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia(ANLL) patients.Method Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the FLT3/ITD mutation in 71 ANLL patients.Results The expression of FLT3 gene were detected in 65/71(91 5%) ANLL cases and ITD mutation was found in 17 cases. 23 9% of ANLL cases were found with FLT3/ITD mutation. The leucocyte count and the percentage of bone marrow blast cells were higher in ANLL patient with FLT3/ITD mutation than that in the ANLL patient without FLT3/ITD mutation (P
