Serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is routinely measured when
evaluating the infertile male for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
However, among the sperm parameters, only its relationship with sperm
concentration is well documented. Few investigations concern the
relationship between FSH and sperm motility and morphology, and the results
of ICSI. A retrospective study of 316 couples who underwent ICSI was
carried out to determine the relationships between serum FSH concentrations
in the male and (i) standard sperm parameters_(concentration, motility and
morphology) and (ii) fertilization, cleavage, pregnancy and implantation
rates after ICSI. There was an inverse correlation with sperm concentration
and total motility but no relationship was found with progressive motility
and sperm morphology. Neither was any relationship found between serum FSH
and fertilization, cleavage, pregnancy and implantation rates, and the
results of ICSI. These findings suggest the need to review the routine
measurement of serum FSH in the infertile male when ICSI is the planned
treatment procedure.

The natural history of Crohn's disease (CD) is characterised by periods of remission followed by phases of flares. Persistent or intractable diarrhoea may be associated with ileal disease or arise following ileal resection, resulting in potassium depletion. Medical therapy with steroids presents troublesome side-effects (e.g. hypertension). Conn's syndrome, caused by unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma, is characterised by clinical features including hypokalaemia and hypertension. Thus, CD and Conn's syndrome may have an overlap of manifestations, and up to now, the simultaneous occurrence of these conditions has not been described. We report here 2 cases of association between CD and Conn's syndrome. 相似文献

We report two cases of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), both occurring in the small bowel, which coexpress PAX5, weak
or no CD20 and the CD4 antigen. The CD4 was initially identified by flow cytometry and then confirmed by immunohistochemistry.
CD4 is a representative marker for helper T-lymphocytes and is present on a subset of thymocytes, peripheral T cells and monocytes
or macrophages. Unlike CD2 and CD5, no B cell fractions are known to express CD4. It might be hypothesized that the deregulated
control of gene expression in malignant B cells, in particular PAX5, leads to the activation of some silent or repressed genes
of T cell differentiation. Although lineage infidelity is described in some B lymphomas, it remains as an uncommon phenomenon;
to our knowledge, cases reported here are the first two cases of DLBCL of the gastrointestinal tract coexpressing the CD4
antigen to be described to date. 相似文献

We studied the histologic and multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) features of 12 cases of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), 13 of mature T-cell lymphoma, and 25 control cases of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia to evaluate the role of CD10 in the differential diagnosis of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs). A characteristic immunophenotypic profile (CD2+/CD4+) with recurrent phenotypic aberrancies (eg, CD3 and CD7 loss) was identified in most AITL cases; MFC documented CD10 coexpression on T cells in 10 (83%). Mature T-cell lymphoma showed a more heterogeneous altered immunophenotypic pattern, and 2 cases of PTCL, unspecified, had clear evidence of aberrant CD10 expression on T cells. A small physiologic CD3+/CD4+/CD10+ T-cell population was detected by MFC in all control cases tested (range, 0.28%-4.71%), suggesting that a normal subset of peripheral CD10+ T cells exists. CD10 was a highly sensitive but incompletely specific phenotypic marker for diagnosing AITL; the differential diagnosis of PTCL, unspecified, must be related with traditional histologic features. A small number of CD10+ T cells in reactive lymph nodes suggests that this subpopulation may be the normal counterpart of neoplastic T cells in AITL. The biologic role of CD10+ T cells should be studied further. 相似文献

In the present work the examination and comparison of the degree of atherosclerotic involvement of the left coronary artery (CDA) and internal mammary artery (AMI) was performed on 22 unselected subjects at necroscopy examination. The maximum age was 77 and the minimal was 25 (average 62.59 +/- 2.47); 13 were male and 9 female. We macroscopically and microscopically examined three sections obtained from three different segments for each vessel. First we macroscopically evaluated the degree of narrowing of the lumen giving a score (+ to +). (Tab. II). Then the sections, 6 micron thick, stained with Haematoxylin-eosine, Alcian blue, PAS and Van Gieson methods were accurately examined at microscope with a graduated eyepiece. The lumen, the intima and the media were measured at the level of maximum thickness of the intima. Then the thickness of intima and the intima to media ratio, accordingly to the literature, were assumed as major indicators of atherosclerosis involvement. The intima to media ratio average was 5.05 (+/- 5.81) in the CDA vs. 0.44 (+/- 0.29) in the AMI (p less than 0.001). The intima in the CDA was 0.86 mm (+/- 0.76) thick (average) vs. 0.09 mm (+/- 0.07) in the AMI (p less than 0.001). These results show a great difference in atherosclerosis involvement which results to be ten times greater in CDA than in AMI in non selected people. Almost the same result is obtained by the measurement of the intima. On the contrary no detectable difference was found between the media of the two vessels. 相似文献

The protein expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27 is often deregulated in human tumors. In lymphomas the inactivation of p27 is achieved through either increased degradation(1) or sequestration via D cyclins,(2) and p27 protein levels have been shown to have a prognostic significance.(1,3) Recently, S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) has been proved to mediate p27 degradation in normal cells(4-7) and to have oncogenetic properties.(8,9) In this study, B-, T-, and myeloid hematopoietic cell lines and a well-characterized panel of human lymphomas (n = 244) were studied for the expression of Skp2. In human lymphomas, the expression of Skp2 strongly related to the grade of malignancy, being low in indolent tumors and very high in aggressive lymphomas. Moreover, the percentages of Skp2- and S-phase-positive cells, as measured by DNA content or BrdU labeling, strictly matched and closely parallel that of Ki-67 and cyclin A. An inverse correlation between Skp2 and p27 was found in the majority of lymphoma subtypes. Nonetheless, most mantle cell lymphomas and a subset of diffuse large cell lymphomas failed to show this correlation, suggesting that alternative pathway(s) for the regulation of p27 might exist. The detection of Skp2 protein either by flow cytometry or by immunohistochemistry represents a simple method to precisely assess the S phase of lymphomas. The potential diagnostic and prognostic value of Skp2 is discussed. 相似文献

CD38 rules proliferation signals in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells, suggesting that the molecule is not merely a prognostic marker but also a key element in the pathogenetic network underlying the disease. CD38 has a genetic polymorphism, characterized by a C>G variation in the regulatory region of intron 1. The working hypothesis is that the presence of different alleles in CLL patients marks (or accounts for) some of the clinical heterogeneity. CD38 allele distribution in 248 Italian patients overlapped with that of the controls (n = 232), suggesting that susceptibility to CLL is not influenced by CD38 genotype. Stratification of patients according to markers of unfavorable prognosis constantly resulted in a significantly higher frequency of the rare G allele. Furthermore, analysis of clinical parameters showed that G allele is independently associated with nodal/splenic involvement. The highest G allele frequency was observed in the 16 patients of the cohort that developed Richter syndrome (RS). Five-year cumulative incidence of transformation was significantly higher in G allele carriers than in CC homozygotes. Multivariate analysis on a total of 30 RS patients confirmed that the probability of transformation is strongly associated with G allele, likely representing an independent risk factor for RS development. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether or not patients with completely resected Masaoka stage II thymoma benefit from postoperative radiotherapy (RT). METHODS: We retrospectively review the case records and compared the long-term outcomes of patients affected by Masaoka stage II thymoma treated by resection alone with same stage thymoma patients submitted to resection and RT. Surgical specimens were reviewed to confirm pathological stage, negative resection margins and histological subtype. RESULTS: Between 1988 and 2000, we performed 197 resections for thymoma; 58 patients resulted to be affected by completely resected tumours with microscopic transcapsular invasion (stage IIA, n=25) or macroscopic invasion into the surrounding fatty tissue with or without adhesion to the mediastinal pleura (stage IIB, n=33). Thirty-two patients underwent only complete surgical resection (14 stage IIA and 18 stage IIB); 26 patients underwent complete resection and subsequent mediastinal RT (11 stage IIA and 15 stage IIB). RT dosages were 45-54grays (Gy), in 25-30 fractions. Histological subtypes were similarly represented in both groups. Median follow-up was 91 months (range 9-170). Five intrathoracic recurrences occurred: three radiated patients (2 stage IIB - 1 AB and 1 B2 thymoma; 1 stage IIA B1 thymoma) and two not-radiated patients (1 stage IIA AB thymoma and 1 stage IIB B1 thymoma). Disease-free survival rate at 5- and 10-year were 94% and 87%, respectively. Log-rank test showed no difference in Kaplan-Meier survival curves (p=0.432) between radiated and not-radiated patients. CONCLUSIONS: These data support the concept that radical surgical resection alone should be considered a sufficient treatment for stage II thymoma. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Based on our preclinic studies with autologous unfractionated bone marrow (AUBM) via coronary sinus with transitory occlusion, a clinic study in patients with chronic refractory angina was designed. The objectives were to evaluate tolerance of the procedure, safety, and feasibility with 1 year follow-up. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Clinical study with inclusion and exclusion criteria defined by an Independent Clinical Committee was carried out. Fifteen patients underwent transcoronary sinus administration with a 15-min occlusion of freshly aspirated and filtered AUBM (60-120 ml). Feasibility was evaluated with Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ), Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) angina classification, perfusion dipyridamole, and coronary angiography. RESULTS: There were no changes in the tolerance parameters. There were no deaths or myocardial infarction during the follow-up. Three patients were readmitted into the hospital. During the follow-up, one patient was diagnosed with cancer of the lung. Improvement of 30% in the quality of life was evaluated by SAQ. The CCS angina classification showed that the mean angina class was 3.0+/-0.53 at baseline, which improved to 1.6+/-0.63 at 1 year (P<.001). Perfusion imaging (core lab) showed improvement in 12 of 15 patients, with a mean improvement of 40.9% at rest (22 vs. 13) (P<.01) and 45.3% at stress (26.5 vs. 14.5) (P<.05). Coronary angiography showed more collateral vessels in 10 of 15 patients. CONCLUSIONS: We can conclude that AUBM via coronary sinus is feasible in patients with chronic refractory angina after 1 year follow-up, and it appears to be safe. 相似文献
