Objective The purpose was to describe the outcomes and characteristics of the obstetric patients with concurrent eclampsia and hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets syndrome (HELLP) syndrome. Methods We retrospectively collected the materials between December 1999 and December 2008 in Obstetric Critical Care Center of Guangzhou. There were 76 patients in rolled then they were divided into two groups according to with or without HELLP syndrome. All the patients were injected Magnesium Sulfate to control seizure and to prevent the recurring of seizure. We analyzed the characteristics (such as age, gestational weeks, blood pressure after seizure), complications, biochemistry markers, the rate for intensive care unit (ICU) admittion, the need for mechanical ventilation, the Glasgow coma score (GCS) when admitted into ICU, computed tomography scan (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),death rate of maternal and others, then compared between the two groups. Results ( 1 ) General data:There were 17 patients admitted with both eclampsia and HELLP syndrome, and 59 patients admitted eclampsia without HELLP syndrome. The incidence of eclampsia with HELLP syndrome was 22% (17/76).In eclampsia with HELLP syndrome group, the systolic blood pressure was higher and the rate of preterm also was higher [ (182 ± 20) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0. 133 kPa)vs. (159± 21 ) mm Hg, P < 0. 05 ]. But in regard to the age, gestational weeks, the rate of regular prenatal care and diastolic blood pressure, there were no differences between the two groups. (2) Biochemistry markers: the aspartate transaminase (AST), lanine transaminase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were significantly increased in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome group than eclampsia without HELLP syndrome group [ (879 ± 337) U/L vs. (90 ± 27)U/L, (344 ±83) U/Lvs. (43 ±11)U/L, (2245 ±294) U/L vs. (485 ±61)U/L, (14 ±9) mmol/L vs.(7 ± 3) mmol/L, ( 140 ± 92) μmol/L vs. (83 ± 28 ) μmol/L, P < 0. 01, P < 0. 05 ], and the platelet was lower in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome group [ (38 ± 13) × 109/L vs ( 172 ±46) × 109/L, P <0. 01 ].(3) Clinical outcomes: The maternal death rate was 35% (6/17) in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome patients, and significantly higher than the rate in eclampsia without HELLP syndrome group (3%, 2/59)(P < 0. 05 ). There were more patients admitted to ICU and more patients who need mechanical ventilation in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome (13/17 vs. 34%, 9/17 vs. 24/, P <0. 05), also more patients with GCS ≤8 in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome when admitted to ICU ( 8/17 vs. 7/59, P < 0. 05 ), compared to the eclampsia without HELLP syndrome group. There were more patients complicated with cerebral venous thrombosis and cerebral hemorrhage in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome group than other group (8/17 vs.7%, P < 0. 05 ). Five of six patients died of cerebral hemorrhage in eclampsia with HELLP syndrome group,while other two missing cases in eclampsia without HELLP syndrome group all died of cerebral hemorrhage.The all missing cases were performed CT or MRI and seven (7/8) of them showed cerebral hemorrhage.Conclusion The incidence of concurrent eclampsia and HELLP syndrome was not rare, it happened seriously and with more mortalities, such as cerebral hemorrhage, and also the maternal mortality rate was significantly higher. It should be warning that the obstetrician should take great attention for these women,and consider life support treatment for them.

In a fusion of BABL/C murine spleen cells immunizated with human fetal thymocytes and P_3X_(3)Ag_(,3), myeloma cells, six monoclonal antibodies(McAb) were produced. They were termed HIT_1. HIT_2. HIT_3. HIT_4.HIT_(6-1) and HIT_(6-2), respectively. The specificity of these McAbs were analysed by indirect immunofluorescence technique and FACS.Results showed that they reacted with 80~90%thymocytes,but hardly with peripheral blood mononuclear cells and spleen cells in adults,and nonreactive with red blood cells, granulocytes and platelets, According to their reaction with the tonsil cells, we can divide these six McAbs into three groups: Groupl including HIT_1, HIT_2, and HIT_(?) McAbs reacted approximately with 1/3 tonsil cells; basically GroupⅡ including HIT_(6-1) and HIT_(6-2) McAbs gave negative reaction with tonsil cells; GroupⅢ McAb HIT_4 reacted with 15% tonsil cells, which suggested these were a heterogeneous group McAbs with different specificities. In comparision with OKT series of McAbs in thymus, peripheral blood and tonsil, HIT_(1-3) are similar to OKT_(10) and,HTT6-l and HIT_(6-2) are just like OKT_6,but HIT_4 seems to be a new McAb different frOm HIT_(1-3) and HIT_(6-1) HII_(6-2). The competitive binding assay showed that HIT_(6-1) and HIT_(6-2) labeled with FITC can be inhibited by unlabeled HIT_(6-1) and HIT_(6-2) each other and can also be blocked by OKT_6, suggesting further these antibodies recognized a same epitope on thymocytes. Cross reaction were also demonstrated on HIT_1, and HIT_2 but not on HIT_3, suggesting HIT_1 and HIT_2 recognized the same determinant and HIT_3 recognized another. So six antibodies are McAbs against T cell differentiation antigens.They are useful for research the differentiation of T cells and the classification of malignant lymphadenosis diseases.

Objective To identify the clinical and pathological features of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDC). Methods The characteristics of BPDC hematodermic neoplasm were discussed with a report of two new cases and review the literatures. Results Both patients presented with skin nodules and the tumors were CD+4 and CD+56. Lineage specific markers for B- and T-cell were negative and the tumors did not express myeloperoxidase. Systemic chemotherapy resulted in complete remission, but the disease relapsed quickly and were unresponsive to further chemotherapy. The patients died 26 months and 11 months respectively after diagnosis. Conclasion BPDC hematodermic neoplasm is a rare subtype of lymphoma with distinct clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic features. The disease often has a fulminant course with a poor prognosis. More recent studies suggest that there is a derivation from a plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursor.
