BACKGROUND: The quantity and bioactivity of isolated islet are vital to islet transplantation; while, the cold ischemia time and human leucocyte antigen (HLA) typing are key factors to islet quantity and bioactivity which inflect islet transplantation.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of cold ischemia time and blood compatibility on quantity and bioactivity of islet cells.DESIGN: Observational study.SETTING: Ruikang Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.MATERIALS: Organs from voluntary donors died of irreversible coma were adopted whose blood-type and HLA typing had been known, pancreases acquisition was carried on after other organs ablation or in the meantime. The blood of identical ABO and HLA matching conformity, or HLA cross-matching hypersensitization (missmatching over 3 Iocuses),or panel reaction antibody (PRA) > 50%, or lymphocyte cytotoxin crossmatching test positive. The isolated and purified islet suspension was filtered by 70 μm filter, which result in preparing 1.2×105/L islet suspention.METHODS: Hypertonic citrate adenine solution was perfused into aorta, and kidney-pancreases and kidney-pancreases-liver were cut together or kidney-pancreases-liver was cut separately. Islet activity was judged by diphenylthiocarbazone (DTZ) dyeing and acridine orange (AO) dyeing; meanwhile, twelve pancreases far from contamination were aquired, mean ablation time was 15 minutes; cold ischemia time ranged from 2.5 to 8 hours. Cold ischemia time of nine pancreases was controlled in 5 hours, warm ischemia time was 0-3 minutes, and peptic time was (15±2.4) minutes, correlation of islet cells and histocompatibility with survival of islet cells was analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Survival rate of islet cells; counts of platelet, heterophil granulocyte and monocyte.RESULTS: The cutting of kidney, pancreases and liver were successful. If the cold ischemia time was controlled within 5 hours, activity of islets was above 80%. Pancreatic gland used for islet transplantation and cutting of other organs could not affect activity of islet cells. When human islets were exposed to human blood, it would induce a rapid consumption of platelets, neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes in the blood. Consumption of blood cells was more in the HLA typing groups than that in the control group. After adding heparin, there was significant difference in cell account among the three groups (P < 0.05) and the reaction was relieved obviously. After 24-hour cultivation, there were significant difference in active islets quantity between HLA typing compatibility group and HLA typing incompatibility group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Pancreatic gland obtained under the cold ischemia time < 5 hours can be used in clinical transplantation of islet cells; a good histocompatibility can raise successful rate of transplantation of islet cells.

Objective:To study the risk factors for ipsilateral severe hearing impairment in patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS) after microvascular decompression (MVD).Methods:MVD was performed in 3700 patients with HFS, admitted to our hospital from October 2007 to August 2020; according to the existence of ipsilateral severe hearing impairment, these patients were divided into severe hearing impairment group and non-severe hearing impairment group. The clinical data of these patients were compared. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors for ipsilateral severe hearing impairment.Results:Forty-five patients (1.2%) had ipsilateral severe hearing impairment after MVD; no one got recovery of hearing impairment during the follow-up period (0.6-11.8 years, 6.3 years in average). As compared with those in the non-severe hearing impairment group, patients in the severe hearing impairment group had significantly older age, significantly higher percentages of male patients, and patients with left HFS, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, statistically higher percentage of patients having small posterior fossa volume, arachnoid thickening and adhesion, and vertebral artery compression, significantly lower percentage of patients with anterior inferior cerebellar artery compression, significantly higher percentage of patients with arteriosclerosis of offending arteries and difficult decompression ( P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that hypertension, vertebral artery compression, arteriosclerosis of offending artery and difficult decompression were independent risk factors for severe hearing impairment in patients with HFS after MVD. Conclusion:It's difficult to get recovery for severe hearing impairment in patients with HFS after MVD; this complication is much common in patients with hypertension, vertebral artery compression, arteriosclerosis of offending artery or difficult decompression.
