自体骨髓干细胞移植治疗失代偿期肝硬化

选择36例失代偿期肝硬化患者,年龄37～59岁,患者在无菌条件下,从髂后上棘抽取骨髓100～200mL,在体外分离纯化骨髓干细胞后,局部麻醉下经股动脉插管经肝动脉将分离的骨髓干细胞移植于肝脏。自移植后12周,25例(69.4%)患者谷丙转氨酶逐渐降低,由平均(2788.56±357.90)nkat/L降至(1077.05±440.25)nkat/L;22例(61.1%)患者总胆红素逐渐下降,由平均(151.47±25.77)μmol/L降至(69.93±18.86)μmol/L;27例(75%)患者白蛋白逐渐升高,由平均(25.17±11.79)g/L升至(30.87±12.17)g/L。在干细胞移植后凝血酶原活动度逐渐上升,由术前平均(25.89±12.67)%上升至术后12周的(50.39±19.38)%,患者凝血机制明显改善。移植后大多数患者身体状况有明显的改善;移植后12周腹水减轻的19例(52.7%),食欲改善的28例(77.7%),体力好转20例(58.3%),腹胀减轻17例(47.2%),36例干细胞移植患者未出现严重并发症。     

Blood loss and replacement in total hip arthroplasty: a multicenter study. The Preoperative Autologous Blood Donation Study Group

To determine blood loss, the number of transfusions, and the hemoglobin levels achieved in patients via transfusion in the course of total hip arthroplasty, 324 patient records from 1987 through 1989 were reviewed at three university and three community hospitals. Calculated blood loss was 3.2 +/- 1.3 units in primary procedures and 4.0 +/- 2.1 units in revision procedures (mean +/- SD). Of 777 red cell units transfused, 455 (59%) were autologous units. Transfused patients received 2.0 +/- 1.8 units for primary procedures and 2.9 +/- 2.3 units for revision procedures (mean +/- SD). The maximum number of units given to 95 percent of the transfused patients was 4 for primary procedures and 6 for revision procedures. The mean postoperative hemoglobin level after all transfusions was 103 to 110 g per L, regardless of patient age group of physical status, autologous donor status, or hospital. No difference in length of hospital stay was observed for patients less than 65 years old with hemoglobin concentrations of 80 to 139 g per L at discharge.     

Blood group A immunodeterminants on human red cells differ in biologic activity and sensitivity to alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase

BACKGROUND: Epitopes of blood group A antigen can be enzymatically cleaved from red cells (RBCs), but the extent of cleavage required for normal survival in allogeneic blood transfusion recipients is unknown. Therefore, the cleavage rates were studied for A antigen epitope binding of 1) complement-activating anti-A, 2) Dolichos biflorus anti- A, lectin, and 3) hemagglutinating anti-A during incubation with a purified alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, E.C. 3.2.1.49 (alpha- GalNAc'ase). STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Suspensions of group A RBCs were incubated with alpha-GalNAc'ase. Cells were removed at intervals, washed, and tested for loss of binding by monoclonal, polyclonal, and complement-activating anti-A, D. biflorus anti-A1 lectin, and Ulex europaeus anti-H lectin. RESULTS: A epitopes binding D. biflorus lectin were highly susceptible to alpha-GalNAc'ase; simultaneously with their loss, binding with U. europaeus lectin emerged. Loss of complement- mediated hemolysis was slower. A epitopes binding hemagglutinating anti- A were most resistant. Cleavage of A epitopes from membrane glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide chains was similarly resistant. Rates of cleavage from A1 and A2 RBCs were similar. CONCLUSION: RBC epitopes of blood group A differ in susceptibility to cleavage and biologic reactivity, which suggests that subsets mediating important biologic functions exist on functionally and topographically distinct membrane glycoconjugates.     

犬内皮与平滑肌细胞的短期静态联合培养

目的:为获得组织工程化自体血管,观察体外静态培养条件下犬内皮细胞与平滑肌细胞联合培养组织学及形态学的特征。方法:实验于2004-07/2005-06在首都医科大学宣武医院外科院级实验室完成。①实验材料:雄性杂种犬,3个月龄,体质量8～12kg。②实验方法:贴块法及酶解法对犬内皮细胞及平滑肌细胞进行原代分离培养及扩增,将第Ⅱ代平滑肌细胞以1×109L-1的密度种植于胶原膜上培养13d,再将第Ⅱ代内皮细胞接种于生长平滑肌细胞的胶原膜上2d。③实验评估:行苏木精-伊红染色同时扫描电镜和透射电镜观察平滑肌细胞和内皮细胞在胶原载体上联合培养后的形态。结果:苏木精-伊红染色见平滑肌细胞较均匀的分布于支架材料表面及内部;扫描电镜下,平滑肌细胞可以在胶原载体材料上生长,增殖明显并在短期内形成多层细胞。内皮细胞与平滑肌细胞联合培养2d就可在平滑肌细胞层表面获得连续的单层内皮细胞层。结论:在短期静态培养条件下犬的血管平滑肌细胞和内皮细胞可以在胶原载体材料上形成具有两层细胞结构的组织工程化动脉血管组织片。

The prognostic value of multivoxel magnetic resonance spectroscopy determined metabolite levels in white and grey matter brain tissue for adverse outcome in term newborns following perinatal asphyxia

Objective  

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy can identify brain metabolic changes in perinatal asphyxia by providing ratios of metabolites, such as choline (Cho), creatine (Cr), N-acetyl aspartate (NAA) and lactate (Lact) [Cho/Cr, Lact/NAA, etc.]. The purpose of this study was to quantify the separate white and grey matter metabolites in a slab cranial to the ventricles and relate these to the outcome.
