BACKGROUND: There are a lot of immunologic studies about limb allotransplantation in animal experiment. But, it is only early investigation in clinic; its clinical immunologic study needs further accumulation.OBJECTIVE: To dynamically analyze the early immunologic state change in patients following hand allotransplantation.DESIGN: Controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA; Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics and Department of Laboratory Medicine, Nanfang Hospital, First Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Two patients who underwent unilateral hand allotransplantation in the Department of Orthopaedics, Guangzhou General Hospital,Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA were enrolled, serving as experimental group. The observation was between September 1999 and March 2000. Twenty persons, including 12 male and 8 female, who homochronously received health examination, aged 20 to 45 years, were enrolled, serving as healthy control group. They all had no reactive immune and infectious diseases, and voluntarily participated in the trial.METHODS: Peripheral blood was collected from 2 patients who underwent hand allotransplantation once respectively at pre-operative 1 day and 3 days. Blood collecting was performed once per day at post-operative 1 week, three times per week at post-operative 2 to 4 weeks, twice per week at 5 to 8 weeks post-operation, once per week at 9 to 16 weeks post-operation, twice per month at 5 to 6 months post-operation. ① Peripheral blood T cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cells)were detected by flow cytometer,serum panel reactive antibody (PRA) by ELISA method, serum C-reactive protein by turbidimetric immanoassay (TIA), serum creatine kinase (CK) by enzyme dynamics method. ②Mixed lymphocyte reaction(MLR): mitomycin C-treated donor peripheral blood lymphocytes were used as stimulator, and proliferative reaction of peripheral blood lymphocyte of patients to donor transplanted antigen was detected with the incorporation of 3H-TDR method (Negative: There was no significant difference between the mean value of stimulation index and 1, conversely positive). Autogenic peripheral blood lymphocytes treated with the same way replaced donor stimulator, serving as control. Stimulation index of each specimen was calculated (Stimulation index=Experiment cmp/controlcpm), serving as control index. Peripheral blood T-cell subgroups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell), serum PRA, C-reactive protein and CK were detected in 20 persons in healthy control group;Twenty persons were randomly divided into 10 groups. Two persons in each group were used as donor and recipient mutually and performed MLR.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Peripheral blood T cell subgrpups (CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell). ②PRA. ③ C-reactive protein. ④CK. ⑤MLR.RESULTS: ①CD3+,CD4+,CD8+T cell levels were obviously decreased within one week after operation. CD3+ and CD4+T cell levels both recovered to be the pre-operative levels, but CD8+ level exceeded pre-operative level significantly [CD3+: (66.43±4.56); CD4+: (30.55±3.94); CD8 +:(33.45 ±2.69)]. There was no significant difference between experiment group and control group. ②Serum PRA was 0 to 10%, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ③ Serum C-reactive protein was 0 to 0.359 mg/L, there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ④ Serum CK was 25 to 170 mmol/L, and there was no significant difference as compared with control group. ⑤ MLR after transplantation was negative, and it turned into be positive 5 months later.They were all positive in control group.CONCLUSION: Short-term change and long-term redistribution of T cell subgroups are closely related to immunosuppressive agent, suggesting that immunosuppressive agent has obvious effect on T-cell subgroup following hand allotransplantation. Immuno-induction schedule make patients be in immune suppression state, which effectively avoid early rejection. But patients cannot bear specificity yet; they need the inhibition of immunosuppressive agents.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and diagnosis key points of brain abscess caused by Nocardia asiatica, and provide a clinical basis for diagnosing and treating intracranial infection caused by Nocardia. Methods A case of pulmonary Nocardia asiatica complicated with brain abscess diagnosed at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University was selected to analyze the clinical manifestations, cerebrospinal fluid characteristics, pulmonary and cranial imaging features, and treatment plan, and to summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience. Results The patient was an elderly woman with a history of diabetes, dry cough was the first symptom without fever or headache. At the beginning of the course, it was diagnosed as pulmonary infection and tuberculosis in the local hospital, and received conventional antimicrobial and anti-tuberculosis therapies, but showed no improvement. The patient developed progressive limb weakness, followed by consciousness disorders, and coma. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) adenosine deaminase and lactate dehydrogenase were not abnormal, CSF pressure, protein and white blood cells were high, mainly with multiple nuclear cells. CSF glucose and chloride were normal in the early stage of the disease, but decreased significantly in the later stage. Metagenomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid indicated Nocardia asiatica with a specific sequence number of 537. Lung CT showed exudation, abscess, and cavity in the right lung. Skull MRI scan + enhancement suggested multiple scattered abscesses in both cerebral hemispheres. The abscesses were of different sizes and showed ring enhancement, with extensive surrounding edema, and ventricular compression. After treatment with meropenem, linezolid, and compound sulfamethoxazole tablets, the cerebrospinal fluid recovered, and the lesions in the lungs and intracranial structures improved. Conclusions Brain abscess caused by Nocardia asiatica is similar to the tuberculous brain in clinical symptoms, cerebrospinal fluid examination, craniocerebral imaging, so we should be alert to the possibility of Nocardia infection in patients with diabetes. At the same time, metagenomic testing of the cerebrospinal fluid can help confirm the diagnosis. The mortality and disability rates of brain abscess caused by Nocardia are high. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the prognosis.

This paper analysed the rhinoscope's clinical value in microsurgical treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Application of the rhinoscope in 87 patients, only 2 patients had ruptured during operation. However, 11 cases had ruptured in 94 cases without using rhinoscope, P < 0.05, they had a significant difference. By DSA follow-up review, 82 cases of used rhinoscope only 2 cases had remained the aneurysm neck, but 9 cases had the aneurysm neck in 77 cases which had not used the rhinoscope in the microsurgical treatment, P < 0.05, they also had significant difference. The application of rhinoscope in microsurgical treatment of intracranial aneurysms intraoperative, can reduce the risk of the intraoperative aneurysm rupture. It can achieve better clinical effect.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the stir-bake with saltwater processing technology for Fujian Alismatis rhizoma,and es-tablish its HPLC fingerprint. METHODS:Using 23-acetyl alisol B,total triterpenoids contents and appearance as comprehensive in-dexes,single factor experiment and orthogonal test were employed,3 factors'levels including the quantity of salt,processing tem-perature and time were optimized. HPLC was used to develop fingerprints of 10 batches of Fujian Alismatis rhizoma at wavelength of 208,245 nm;the similarity between fingerprints and control profile was compared by using software. RESULTS:The optimal technology was as follow as 2 kg salt dissolved with 10 kg water for each 100 kg Fujian Alismatis rhizoma,moistening for 1 h, stir-frying for 8 minutes under 100 ℃. In verification test,the appearance of 3 batches of processed products were all in line with requirements,average comprehensive score was 93.94 (RSD=6.63%,n=3);23-acetyl alisol B and total triterpenoids contents were stable(RSD=7.41%,7.39%,n=3),respectively. Totally 17 and 10 common peaks were marked in 208 nm and 245 nm re-spectively;similarities of 10 batches of samples'fingerprints were higher than 0.9. CONCLUSIONS:Optimized stir-bake with salt-water technology is reasonable,feasible,and reproducible;the stability of common peaks of established fingerprints can conduct ef-fective quality evaluation for Fujian Alismatis rhizoma processed by saltwater.

Objective To explore the early diagnosis of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LDVT)and evaluate the therapeutic effect of anticoagulant therapy in hospitalized patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods According to Wells model for suspecting lower extremity deep venous thrombosis,patients with suspected LDVT were confirmed by compression ultrasonography. If the patients diagnosed with LDVT had no contraindications to anticoagulant therapy,they were treated with low molecular weight heparin(LMWH)subcutaneous injection and oral warfarin at the same time.The dosage of oral warfarin was determined by Roberts'age adjusted warfarin loading protocol.LMWH was stopped when the patients'international normalized ratio(INR)was 2.0~3.0 for two consecutive days. Results From January 2003 to August 2007,2067 cases with acute ischemic stroke were admitted to the department of neurology in Huizhou Municipal Central Hospital including 18 cases with LDVT and the incidence was 0.9%.The patients with LDVT all had paralytic extremities including 13 left legs and 5 right legs with deep vein thrombosis.All the 18 cases were treated by anticoagulant including 17 cases with oral warfarin treatment for 3 months.Symptoms in all LDVT patients were eliminated.12 cases had been observed for one year and 5 cases for three months after they stopped taking warfatin.There were no patients with pulmonary thromboembolism and LDVT recurrence. Conclusions By using Wells model for suspecting LDVT,patients with acute ischemic stroke-complicated LDVT can be timely diagnosed.The goal of prompt and enough anticoagulant can be achieved according to Roberts'age adjusted warfarin loading protocol.Because of racial difference,population difference and other unknown factors,the incidence of acute ischemic stroke patients with complicated LDVT is much lower in Huizhou.It suggests that it should be unnecessary to use LMWH in patients with acute ischemic stroke to prevent LDVT in Huizhou.

ObjectiveTo prepare high specific monoclonal antibodies(mAbs) against BP26 of Brucella(B.)melitensis.Methods A recombinant plasmid pET-28a-BP26 was constructed and transformed into competent Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3),and then the bacteria were induced by 1 mmol/L isopropylthio-β-D-galactoside (IPTG).After induction,the recombinant BP26 protein (rBP26) was purified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PGAE) and nickel ion affinity chromatography(Ni-NTA).Mice were inoculated with rBP26 antigens for three times at 2-week intervals.The first subcutaneous injection contained 100 μg rBP26 with 0.1 ml complete Freund adjuvant.The second subcutaneous injection was 50 μg rBP26 with 0.1 ml incomplete Freund adjuvant.The antibody titers to rBP26 were determined 2 weeks after each reimmunization.Three days before cell fusion,the mice with the highest titer were intraperitoneally injected with 50 μg rBP26 in 0.1 ml PBS.Pre- and post-immunization sera were collected and used as negative or positive controls for screening mAbs.Mice with the highest titer were sacrificed and spleen cells were isolated.The spleen cells of rBP26 immunized mice were fused with SP2/0 myeloma cells in a ratio of 5 ∶ 1 by polyethylene glycol(PEG) 1450.Antibody-producing hybridomas were primarily screened by an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay(ELISA) with rBP26.Reactive hybridomas were subcloned for 3 times,then the strains of hybridoma cells secreting antibodies against BP26 were obtained.Supernatant of cloned hybridoma cultures was collected for mAb analyses.These mAbs were named by the hybridoma clone number and tested their reactivity to membrane proteins extracted(NMP) from B.melitensis vaccine strain(M5-90) by Western blotting and Dot-ELISA.mAbs isotyping and kappa(κ) or lambda(λ) light chain was identified by Mouse Monoclonal Antibody Isotyping Kit.Results A total of two mAbs reactive to rBP26 of B.melitensis were selected from antibody screening hybridomas by indirect-ELISA.The two mAbs were named 3C3 and 5A5,and identified as IgG1 (κ) and IgG2(κ),respectively.They could react with NMP from M5-90.Conclusions Results of identification show that two mAbs against rBP26 can be produced.The two mAbs can recognize natural BP26 protein,giving the experimental materials for further research on identification of its epitopes.
