Objective To investigate the clinical significance of dynamic changes of CD4~+ CD25~+ regulatory T cells(Treg)in patients subject to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplanta- tion(alIo-HSCT).Methods Forty-five patients received allo-HSCT.The graft-vesus-host disease (GVHD)was prevented by cyclosporine A and short-term MTX regimen in 31 patients.Fourteen of all the patients received Zenapox(CD25MAb)at the day of transplantation and day 4 after transplan- tation.The levels of Treg in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry from 45 patients at 2nd,4th,8th and 12th week after allo-HSCT and the time of aGVHD development,respectively.Re- suits Anti-CD25 could suppress the peripheral blood levels of Treg significantly.The Treg levels were significantly higher in patients with grade 0-1 aGVHD than those with 2-4 aGVHD at 8th and 12th week after transplantation.Among patients with 2-4 aGVHD,Treg levels were significantly low- er after development of aGVHD than before.Conclusions Treg are important for the aGVHD preven- tion and can be a useful clinical surveillant index for the development of aGVHD.It can significantly decrease the levels of Treg in the peripheral blood with anti-CD25.

BACKGROUND: The Sampung Collapse took place at 17:55 June 29, 1995. The rescue operation encountered 458 dead and 477 multiply traumatized patients and 464 non traumatized peoples. We wanted to present basic data for disaster planning for example of Sampung Collapse. METHODS: We made a survey of accident field immediately after accident and interviewed with victims, victim's famaly, and rescuer. We analysed the medical record and SCL-9 (Hopkins symptom check list 90R) which was checked several list with victims, victim's family and control group. RESULT: The mean RTS was 11.9 and the mean ISS was 4.3.96 long bone fractures occurred in 76 patients. 127 case of vertebral injury occurred in 63 patients. Total number of surgical operations were 237. There are also many crushing injury and acute post-traumatic stress diseases. CONCLUSION: There are many injury types which are crushing injury, vertebral injury, blunt trauma and acute PTSD(post traumatic stress diseases). Thus, The field management, especially field triage, is very important. And, the urgent patients were 72 patients, about 5% of total patients, witch needed intensive care in tirtiary hospital. Therefore, we need to plan out the expeditious proper management. and prevention of disaster propagation.

Objective To discuss the clinical diagnostic method of postural orthostatic tachycarda syndrome(POTS) in children.Methods Thirty-six children with POTS were selected for the research.Among them 15 were boys,21 cases were girls.The age ranged from 5.9 to 16 years,average age 12.3 years.Among them 28 patients(78%) were in between 11-16 years.The age distribution,clinical courses and hemodynamic indexes were analyzed and also the incidence of clinical manifestations and investigation reports were observed.Results Among 81 patients of orthostatic regulation disturbance,36 patients were diagnosed POTS,which was 47% of total.The clinical courses ranged from 1 day to 5 years,average clinical course 10.2 months.The clinical courses of more than half of the total patients were within 6 months(56%).The common clinical features of POTS were chest tightness on standing,vertigo,fatigue,palpitation,syncope,orthostatic regulation disturbance.Ten patients were also associated with gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea,vomiting.The most common feature of POTS patients was tachycardia(HR increased by ≥30 times/min) within 10 min after head-up tilt test(HUT).Average HR increased by 38 times/min.In some patients HR increased up to ≥120 times/min.There were no significant changes in blood.In 23 cases(64%),the T waves were descended by ≥0.2 mV in 2 or more than 2 leads in ECG reading.Investigations reports showed that there were 12 cases whose urine specific gravity was increased.In 11 cases HCO_3~-decreased.Conclusions POTS is commonly seen in schooling female children.The common symptoms are vertigo,chest tightness,fatigue,palpitation.HUT is an important method for the diagnosis of POTS.

Objective To master the prevalence trend of Kaschin-Beck disease in Xinghai county (Shanglujuan and X.ialujuan village of Tangnaihai township) from 2003 to 2008 in order to understand changes of selenium level of internal and external environments. Methods According to monitoring method on national Kaschin-Beck disease,we carried out epidemical investigation,clinical examination and X-ray photograph on school children aged 7-12 in Xinghai county,a monitoring region,and collected samples of hair and grain. The content of selenium was detected by 2,3-naphthalene fluorescence. Results From 2003 to 2008,in Shanglujuan village,the prevalence rate of clinic examination was fluctuating between 0(0/34)-17.14%(6/35); the detectable rate of X-ray examination was fluctuating between 11.11% (3/27)-20.59% (7/34),the prevalence rates of metaphysis and extremities were fluctuating between 0 (0/27)-13.21%(7/53) and 2.63% (1/38)-11.43% (4/35). In Xialujuan village,the prevalence rate of clinic examination was fluctuating between 2.94% (1/34)-13.33% (6/45); the detectable rate of X-ray examination was fluctuating between 26.67% (12/45)-43.63%(24/55),the prevalence rate of metaphysis and extremities were fluctuating between 8.33% (6/72)-26.47% (9/34) and 13.33% (6/45)-38.18% (21/55). The selenium contents in hair samples were (139.92±92.27),(134.98±63.77)μg/kg respectively in Shanglujuan and Xialujuan village in 2003; the selenium contents in grain samples were (12.90± 7.18),(14.58±9.90)μg/kg respectively in Shanglujuan and Xialujuan village in 2005. Conclusions The prevalence state of Kaschin-Beck disease in national monitoring region is rigid and pathogenetic factors of Kaschin-Beck disease are active. Selenium levels of internal and external environments are low in this region.
