Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an immune-mediated disorder of the neuromuscular junction that is characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness.Acetylcholine receptor antibody (AchR-Ab) is the first MG specific antibody being elucidated,however,the discovery of many other MG specific or related antibodies enriches its immunopathogenesis greatly.The detection of antibodies is very important for the diagnosis and classification of MG.It can be used to guide the clinical management and evaluate the response to treatment as well.With the development of laboratory medicine,the methods of antibody detection are also being optimized.In this paper,we will review the serum antibodies closely associated with MG and their mechanisms,detection methods and clinical significance.

Objective To explore the consistency of time-of-flight (TOF) technology of PET/MRI and PET/CT for max standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of body malignant tumors.Methods A retrospective analysis of TOF-PET/CT and TOF-PET/MR imaging data about twenty patients with body malignant tumors was performed.Patients were divided into two groups (each n=10),including PET/CT first and sequentially PET/MR group and PET/MR first and sequentially PET/CT group.Bland-Altman figure was used to evaluate consistency of SUVmax of malignant lesions between TOF-PET/CT and TOF-PET/MR.Multi-way ANOVA was used to analysis effect of machine type and exam order on SUVmaxof malignant lesions in TOF-PET/CT and TOF-PET/MR.Results SUVmax of malignant lesions in TOF-PET/CT and TOF-PET/MR had good consistency in two groups (PET/CT first and sequentially PET/MR group:Mean difference was 3.06,95％CI was [-7.5,13.6];PET/MR first and sequentially PET/CT group:Mean difference was 3.0,95％CI was [-2.4,8.3]).SUVmax was not influenced by machine type (F=0.005,P=0.95),but exam order (F=46.00,P＜0.001).Conclusion PET/MR and PET/CT with TOF technology have comparative diagnostic value in SUVmaxof body malignant lesions.SUVmax of body malignant lesions increases in delay time,which is not related to machine type,but exam time.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical effects of close reduction and minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis in treating proximal humerus fractures in the aged.

METHODSFrom February 2012 to December 2013,39 patients with proximal humerus fractures were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO group, 21 cases) and open reduction internal fixation (ORIF group, 18 cases). Including 17 males and 22 females in the study, and aged from 67 to 88 years old with an average of (71.8 ± 5.2) years old. In MIPPO group, there were 11 males and 10 females with an average age of (70.0 ± 5.3) years old;and in ORIF group, there were 10 males and 8 females with an average age of (72.0 ± 4.2) years old. Operation time, blood loss during operation, fracture healing time and postoperative complications were recorded. The functions of the shoulder joints were assessed according to Constant-Murley score at final follow-up.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up from 11 to 27 months with an average of 18.1 months. The mean blood loss of the MIPPO group was (176.0 ± 57.4) ml,while the ORIF group was (356.0 ± 66.9) ml (t = 7.22,P = 0.01). The operation time of the MIPPO group was (47.4 ± 14.9) min, while the ORIF group was (92.7 ± 15.8) min (t = 0.79, P = 0.03). Fracture healing time in the MIPPO group and ORIF group was (17.6 ± 5.8), ( 21.7 ± 4.9) weeks, respectively (P < 0.05). The mean Constant-Murley score at final follow-up was 89.7 ± 14.5 in MIPPO group, and 81.8 ± 13.2 in ORIF group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONMIPPO has advantages of little trauma, less blood loss, rapid recovery, less vascular damage and so on and can effectively treat the proximal humerus fracture in the aged.

Objective To investigate the expression level of immunoglobulin G (IgG)4 cells in patients previously diagnosed as unexplained liver injuries,and to analyze whether these patients could be diagnosed as immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD).The clinical characteristics of patients with IgG4 positive cells infiltration in liver tissues who did not met IgG4-RD diagnosis criteria were also analyzed.Methods From August 2010 to July 2016,33 patients with unexplained liver injuries even after liver biopsy were enrolled.Immunostaining of IgG and IgG4 in liver tissue slices was performed.Whether the patients met the IgG4-RD diagnosis criteria was analyzed.Also,the relation between IgG4 positive cell infiltration in liver tissues and serum parameters (alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate transaminase (AST),alkaline phosphatase (ALP),γ-glutamyl transpeptadase (GGT),IgG),the classification of liver inflammation and stage of liver fibrosis were analyzed.Chi-square,Fisher exact probability method,t test and Wilcoxon rank and inspection were used for statistical analysis.Results Among 33 patients with unexplained liver injuries,average age of onset of the disease was (50.48 ± 14.52) years old.Ten patients (30.3 ％) presented with different degree of IgG4 positive cells infiltration in liver.In one patient,the IgG4 positive cell number in liver tissue was over 10/high-powered field (HPF),IgG4+ / IgG+ ratio was over 40％,the serum IgG4 increased and low density nodules in the left hepatic lobe level,which met the diagnostic criteria of IgG4-RD.Serum parameters of liver function of this patient were as follows:ALT 948 U/L,AST 658 U/L,ALP 176 U/L,GGT 197 U/L,TBil 21.5 μmol/L,DBil 10.0 μmol/L.According to whether there were IgG4 positive cells infiltration in liver tissues,33 patients were divided into IgG4 positive cells infiltration group (IgG4 positive group,10 cases) and no IgG4 positive cells infiltration group (IgG4 negative group,23 cases).The medium levels of ALT,AST,ALP and GGT in the IgG4 positive group and the IgG4 negative group were 26.0 U/L vs 31.0 U/L,28.5 U/L vs 32.0 U/L,114.0 U/L vs 77.0 U/L,65.0 U/L vs 36.0 U/L,respectively and there were no statistically significant differences (Z=-0.098,-0.216,-0.862,-0.705;all P＞0.05).The serum IgG level of the IgG4 positive group was higher than that of the IgG4 negative group (17.15 g/L vs 13.65 g/L),and the difference was statistically significant (Z=-1.776,P =0.035).Conclusions IgG4-RD may be the reason of liver injury.There are no significant differences in clinical charateristics,serum parameters and inflammation degree in liver tissue between patients with or without IgG4 positive cells infiltration.

Objective To investigate the clinical distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus agalactiae(S.agalactiae) in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU), and provide reference for antimicrobial use and intervention measures.Methods Specimens from neonates in the NICU of a hospital in 2010-2014 were collected, the department sources and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results of 62 strains of S.agalactiae isolated from children were analyzed.Results 62 strains of S.agalactiae were mainly distributed at full-term NICU, accounting for 64.52％;the main source of specimens was blood, accounting for 90.33％, followed, by cerebrospinal fluid (6.45％), sputum, and secretion(both were 1.61％).S.agalactiae had the highest resistance rate to tetracycline(79.03％);resistance rates to erythromycin and clindamycin were both 74.19％, resistance rate to levofloxacin was 40.32％, susceptibility rates to penicillin and ampicillin were both 100％.Conclusion S.agalactiae infection mainly occurred in neonates in full-term NICU, and has high resistance rate to multiple antimicrobial agents, penicillin and ampicillin can be used as the preferred antimicrobial agents for the treatment of S.agalactiae infection.

Objective To study the changes of portal vein pressure before and after interventional embolization with α-cyanoacrylate alkyl and their clinical significance. Methods Thirty five patients with esophageal-gastric variceal bleeding were included. Esophageal-gastric fundal varices were embolized with e-cyanoacrylate alkyl in 35 patients, and 10 of them were treated with combination of partial splenic emblization. Portal pressure was measured directly before and after interventional embolization. The patients were followed up for 3-18 months. The changes of the liver functions and complications after the embolization were observed. Results All bleeding were controlled successfully. The main portal pressure in those who received variceal embolization only increased significantly from (32.54±5.23) cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0. 098 kPa) to (37.45±5. 11) cm H2O; superior mesenteric vein pressure increased from (31.46±4.35) cmH2O to (34.33±4.68)cm H2O; and the level of serum albumin raised from (30.45±5.78) g/L to (34.57±6.84) g/L 3 weeks after embolization. Whereas the main portal pressure in those who received both variceal and partial splenic embolizations, decreased significantly from (32. 68±4. 89) cm H2O to (28. 70±4. 58) cm H2O; superior mesenteric vein pressure decreased from (31.46±4.35) cm H2O to (28.03±4.12) cm H2O; and splenic vein pressure decreased from (32.89±4.79) cm H2O to (28.81±5. 12) cm H2O.Conclusions Esophageal-gastric variceal embolization is effective for varieeal bleeding. The increase of main portal pressure after embolization may be benefit for liver function, while the rise of superior mesenteric vein pressure may increase the risk of portal hypertensive gastrointestinal re-bleeding.Esophageal-gastric variceal embolization combined with partial splenic embolization may reduce the incidence of portal hypertension and gastrointestinal re-bleeding, but will increase the risk of ascites.
