Objective To investigate the roles of cell apoptosis and the gene expressions of Fas, FasL, bcl-2 and bax in acute rejection of pancreaticoduodenal transplantation and to evaluate the function of duodenum biopsy for early detection of rejection in rats. Methods Wistar and SD rats were divided into two groups: ①Wistar rats that underwent allogenic pancreaticoduodenal transplantation from the organs of SD rats; ②Wistar rats that received homogenic transplantation. The grafts were then harvested on day 3, 5 and 7 after the transplantation, and all graft samples were observed with HE staining and TUNEL was also used to detect apoptotic cells. The expressions of Fas, FasL, bcl-2 and bax were measured by immunochemical method. According to Nakhleh’s score, pathologic features of transplanted pancreas and duodenum were ranged from one to three scores in order. Results The percentage of same or different scores between the pathological scores of pancreas and duodenum in allogenic pancreaticoduodenal transplantation group were 61.1% (11/18) and 38.9% (7/18) respectively, and there were 6 specimens of pancreatic tissue got higher scores with only one higher score for duodenum. There were significant differences of histopathologic rejection scores and apoptotic indices between the two groups, respectively (P

Objective To investigate the value of low positive AFP level for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)when a space occuping lesion was already identified in the liver.Methods The AFP level of 401 HCC cases from January 1999 to October 2006 were retrospectively analyzed.Results 22 cases of small liver cancer underwent reducing surgical resection in our hospital,increasing the quality of life and prolonging survival rate.Con- clusion(1)The AFP level between 20 and 200?g/L is of diagnostic for HCC when a SOL is identified.(2)The clinical reference diagnostic criteria using AFP level more than 20?g/L,instead of more than 200?g/L is helpful for the diagnosis.(3)Combined diagnosis of AFP level more than 20?g/L and ultrasonography or CT scanning yields higher sensitivity and specificity th.an traditional,diagnostic criteria.

Objective To investigate effects of maintenance hemodialysis with citrate-bicarbonate dialysate on Th17 in peripheral blood of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Methods The CRF patients (n=57) with main-tenance hemodialysis for more than three months as well as free-active infection were selected and divided into two groups randomly, which were treated by citrate-bicarbonate dialysate and ordinary carbonate dialysate for mainte-nance dialysis in 12 month, respectively. The levels of interleulin-17 (IL-17) and percentages of Th17 subgroup in peripheral blood were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometer, respectively. ResultsThe levels of IL-17 and percentages of Th17 subgroup in patients treated with citrate-bicarbonate dialysate for more than six months were significantly lower than those treated with ordinary carbonate dialysate. Moreover, incidences of adverse reactions in group of citrate bicarbonate dialysate were lower than those of common carbonate dialysate group. Conclusion The pro-inflammatory effects of maintenance hemodialysis with citrate-bicarbonate dialysate on the patients are lower than those of ordinary carbonate dialysate. Citrate-bicarbonate dialysate causes the reduction of inflammatory state, and is worthy of being popularized in clinic.

Objective To investigate the activity changes of gelatinase in the formation of ascending aortic aneurysm.Methods Thirty five young Wistar rats were divided into two groups:the control group and the experiment group.The rat models induced by ascending aorta banding were made.The ascending aortas were taken after 3-5 months operation,changes of gelatinase activity was observed by gelatin zymography and film in situ zymography.Results Gelatinase activity of ascending aortic aneurysm was significantly increased compared with that of normal ascending aortic aorta.Conclusion Elevation of gelatinase activity may play a significant role in the formation of ascending aortic aneurysm.

Objective To explore the role of monitoring the cellular immune function in preventing and treating the fungal infection in the recipients of liver transplantation. Methods 679 cadaveric liver transplantations (from Jan. 2004 to Jan. 2010) were retrospectively studied. All the cases were divided into 3 groups according to different treatments and preventing regimens. The patients in groups A, B, C were treated based on the clinical experiences (394 cases), T lymphocyte subsets counting (151 cases), and combination of ATP values of CD4+ T cell and T lymphocyte subsets counting (134 cases), respectively. The infection, mortality and acute rejection rate were analyzed. The relationship between fungal infection and cellular immune function was investigated.Results The fungal infection rate in groups A, B, and C was 28. 9 %, 21.2 %, and 19. 4 % (P<0. 05), the morbidity rate was 16. 7 %, 12. 5%, and 3. 8% (P>0. 05), and the acute rejection rate was 28. 4 %, 17. 2 %, and 13. 4 % (P<0. 01), respectively. The CD4+ T lymphocyte counting in all cases of fungal infection was (147±43)×106/L. The morbidity could reach 50. 0 % when the CD4+ T lymphocyte counting < 100 ×106/L, while it was 2. 4 % when the counting was between (100-200) ×106/L (P<0. 01). The CD4+ T lymphocyte counting had no linear relation with the ATP value.The ATP value in fungal infection cases was (117 ± 61)μg/L. Conclusion The cellular immune function test could be quantitatively evaluated according to the T lymphocyte subsets and ATP value of CD4+ T lymphocyte. And individualized immunosuppressive therapy could be adjusted accordingly.Therefore, cellular immune function could be instructive in preventing and treating the fungal infection after liver transplantation.

Objective To conclude the diagnostic methodology of unroofed coronary sinus (UCS) by two-dimensional echocardiography(2DE). Methods By analyzing the echocardiographic results of 16 UCS patients who were diagnosed by 2DE and confirmed by operation, the diagnostic methodology of UCS by 2DE was summarized. Results Sixteen patients with UCS were involved in this study. Among them, 12 cases were diagnosed as complete UCS,others were partial UCS(PUCS). Twelve patients were complicated with persistence of left superior vena cava (LSVC) that was connected to left atrium (LA) through UCS. All of preoperative diagnosis conducted by 2DE were finally confirmed to be consistent with the results of operation. With the analysis of acquired echo images,key points of diagnosis were concluded as follow: 1) normal coronary sinus (CS) could not be detected in the routine 2DE views referring CS. PUCS showed partial absence of CS roof,while complete UCS displayed as total absence of CS. 2)Inter-atrial shunt would definitely be found in UCS and the opening to right atrium must be coronary sinus orifice. The shunt direction was depended on the combined cardiac malformations. 3) With the occurrence of UCS,LSVC would be in junction with LA through UCS. 4) The inter-atrial shunt resulted in cardiac morphologic and hemodynamic changes. Conclusions Better understanding of the anatomic, morphological and hemodynamic characteristics of UCS would greatly contribute to accurate diagnosis on UCS.
