Objective Probe the value and the operation risk for HIV/AIDS patients with surgical compli-cations. Methods Investigated 27 HIV-infected patients(male 26, female 1, age 27-74 years) were investi-gated. All patients had pre-operative detection of immune function, standardized surgical procedures, careful surgical process to reduce the operation damage, continuous infusion of coagulation factors for haemophilia during operation, conventional application of antibiotics to prevent infection and prompt treatment of compli-cations. Results No incision infected in 8 cases of class one incision, 1 incision infected in 6 cases of class two incision, 3 cases were not healed in 30 days after operation in 13 cases of class three incision. One case died of severe sepsis 12 days after operation, the others discharged with recovery or improvement. Conclu-sion Suitable operation and treatment method may obtain curative effect for HIV-infected patients.

Objective To realize the optimization of image quality and radiation dose by correcting mammography automatic exposure,according to automatic exposure controlled mode of mammography film-screen system . Methods The film-screen system(28 kV) was applied to perform automatic exposure of plexiglass(40 mm) and get the standard dose of exposure, the exposure mode of CR base on LgM =2.0 was rectified, which was divided into 10 steps. Mammary glands pattern(Fluke NA18-220) were examined with CR( 26,28, and 30 kV ) by the automatic exposure mode corrected. The exposure values(mAs) were recorded. CR image was diagnosed and evaluated in double blind way by 4 radiologists according to American Collage of Radiology(ACR) standard. Results Based on the standard of CR automatic exposure with the dose higher than the traditional exposure of film-screen system, the calibration of mammography automatic exposure was accomplished. The test results of the calibrated mode was better than the scoring system of ACR. Conclusions Comparative study showed improvement in acquiring high-quality image and reduction of radiation dose. The corrected mammography automatic exposure mode might be a better method for clinical use.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the human chemokine type 1 chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3L1) and chemokine ligand 4 (CCL4L) gene expression and the immune reconstitution of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients after antiretroviral therapy.Methods The gene copy numbers of CCL3L1 and CCL4L were detected by real time polymerase chain reaction in 217 AIDS patients before antiretroviral therapy.And the correlation between CCL3L1 and CCL4L gene copy numbers and the level of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes were analyzed.The changes of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes were defined as mean change value per month after 48 months treatment.The change rates of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes were defined as the logarithm of the ratio of the value after 48 month to that at baseline.Comparison between groups was conducted using analysis of variance.Results The median of gene copy numbers of CCL3L1 and CCL4L were 2 (range:0-8) and 3 (range:0-7),respectively.After antiviral treatment,there were significantly different changes of CD8+ T lymphocyte level (F=3.054,P＜0.05) and change rate of CD4+/CD8+ (F=3.520,P＜0.05) among groups of high (gene copy 4-8),median (gene copy 2-3) and low (gene copy 0-1) CCL3L1 gene copy numbers.The changes of CD8+ T lymphocyte levels (P=0.023) and change rates (P=0.038) in high and low CCL3L1 gene copy groups were both significantly different.There were significant differents changes rate of ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocyte among high and median (P=0.010),high and low CCL3L1 gene copy numbers (F=4.397,P＜0.05).The significant difference of the change rates of CD4+/CD8+ were found between the gene copy 3 group and gene copy 4-7 group CCL4L (P=0.005) and between the gene copy 4-7 group and gene copy 0-2 group of CCL4L (P=0.030).The change ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocytes increased with the increase of copy numbers of CCL4L gene.Conclusions The gene expressions of CCL3L1 and CCL4L might be associated with the ability of immune reconstitution of AIDS patients after antiretroviral therapy.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of opportunistic infections in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients.Methods A comprehensive retrospective chart review study was conducted of 603 AIDS patients with different opportunistic infections in a special hospital authorized for AIDS patients.Results In all 603 patients,327 cases (54.2％) were infected with Pneumocystisjiroveci,251 cases (41.6％) were infected with fungus and 210 cases (34.8％) were infected with mycobacterium.Totally 367 cases (60.9％) had only one pathogen and 236 cases (39.1％) were co-infected with more than one pathogen.A total of 390 cases (64.7％) had a single site of infection with the respiratory tract being most frequently involved (271 cases,69.5％),and 213 cases (35.3％) had more than one infected site.The most common coinfected sites were oropharynx and respiratory tract (111 cases,52.1％).Conclusions AIDS patients are usually coinfected with multiple pathogenic organisms and multi-systems involved.Most of the opportunistic infections can be cured by timely diagnosis and effective treatment to prolong life and improve the quality of life of AIDS patients.

Objective To analyze the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) co-infection.Methods A retrospective study was conducted with the clinical data of patients diagnosed with AIDS and TB in Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center during the period from 2011 to 2015.The outcome of the patients were evaluated by outpatient and telephone follow-up.The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis using SPSS 22.0 software package.Results A total of 359 patients with AIDS/TB co-infection were included in this analysis,including 325 males and 34 females,the highest proportion in 30-44 age group.The diagnosis was delayed in about 42.6％ of the patients.The clinical symptoms were mainly fever,cough and weight loss,but hemoptysis uncommon.Both lungs were affected in most cases,with lesions in at least 3 lung fields,but rare pulmonary cavity.T-SPOT.TB test showed lower positive rate.CD4+T lymphocyte count was 50 cells/μL or less in 50.7％ of the patients at their first test.About 43.5％ of the 69 patients with antimicrobial susceptibility data showed resistance to therapy.Majority (93.2％) of the patients with known viral status received antiretroviral treatment.Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis was identified in 282 cases.The complication and opportunistic infection included central nervous system infection,syphilis,hepatitis B virus infection,hepatitis C virus infection,pulmonary infection,and drug-induced liver injury.Of the 333 patients with known outcome,53 died,most (79.2％,42/53) within 6 months.Conclusions The patients with AIDS/TB co-infection showed higher proportion of young people.The CT finding was atypical.The patients showed lower positive rate for T-SPOT TB test and lower CD4+T lymphocyte count at their first test.Most patients had extra-pulmonary tuberculosis and other complications or opportunistic infections.

ObjectiveTo find specific biomarkers related to HAART treatment in plasma samples of AIDS patients for clinical therapeautic efficacy evaluation and guidance for the prognosis of HIV treatment.MethodPlasma samples of AIDS patients were collected from Infectious Disease Department 1 of Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center in June of 2008 to February of 2009,including 11 successfully HAART treated cases (HIV load ＞ 50 copies/ml) and 11 unsuccessfully HAART treated cases (HIV load ＜50 copies/ml).Patients' age ranged from 22 to 63.Plasma samples were treated by Bio-rad AurumTM Serum Protein Mini Kit to remove high abundant proteins:albumin and immunoglobulin were removed.The treatedplasmaproteinswereseparatedbytwo-dimensionalelectrophoresisandanalyzedby electrophoretogram using Imagemaster software to find differentially-expressed proteins related to therapeutic efficacy.After digestion by trypsin,the differentially-expressed proteins were identified by online reversed-phasenano-flow liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization ion trap mass spectrometry.ResultsLow abundant proteins were efficiently enriched after the AurumTM Serum Protein Mini Kit treatment.Six differentially-expressed proteins were detected while comparing successfully and unsuccessfully HAART treated group.These proteins were accurately identified by tandem Mass spectrometry (MS), including serum transferrin, serum β-fibrinogen, etc.ConclusionsOur proteomic research revealed that the differentially-expressed proteins such as transferrin,which is related to plasma virus loading in AIDS patients in the process of treatment,might be potential biomarkers evaluating HAART therapeutic efficacy.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of cystic renal cell carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 67 cases of cystic renal cell carcinoma treated from January 2005 to April 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Preoperative imaging procedures indicated masses of renal cysts in 67 cases,including malignant tumors in 59 cases.Intraoperative pathological examination was performed in 59 cases and the pathological results showed malignant tumors in 56 cases,renal cyst in 2 cases and multilocular cyst of kidney in 1 case.The surgical procedures included radical nephrectomy (n=19),partial nephrectomy (n =12),retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (n =9),retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (n =20),retroperitoneal laparoscopic cyst unroofed then transferred to radical nephrectomy (n =6),and retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy transferred to radical nephrectomy (n =1).Results The 67 cases were diagnosed as renal carcinoma,including clear renal cell carcinoma with cystic changes in 31 cases and multilocular renal cell carcinoma in 36 cases.Sixty-two cases were followed up for 10-110 months (median 56 months),and there was no recurrence or metastasis,among which 7 cases diagnosed as benign pre-operation or intra-operation but malignant by pathological examination after surgery were followed up for 61-103 months (median 82 months).Conclusions Imaging plays an important role in the early diagnosis of cystic renal cell carcinoma.Intraoperative pathological examination should be performed in suspected cases.Nephron-sparing surgery is preferred with good outcome.
