输尿管支架管结壳患者尿液菌群的分布特点

目的探讨输尿管支架管结壳患者尿液菌群的分布特点。方法选取2018年10月至2019年3月在山东省立第三医院、山东大学齐鲁医院、济南市中心医院和济南市济钢医院就诊的35例输尿管支架管置入术后患者。纳入标准:年龄18~65岁;输尿管镜碎石术后留置内支架管4周。排除标准:尿液细菌培养阳性;严重肉眼血尿;近期口服抗生素;存在明显残石患者。本研究采用横断面研究方法(临床研究注册号为ChiCTR1800020025),根据有无支架管结壳将患者分为结壳组23例和无结壳组12例。收集拔管当日患者尿液行细菌16s DNA检测。使用UPARSE、UCHIME和RDP calssifier等软件分析两组患者尿液菌群分布特点,明确两组患者尿液中细菌种类总数、细菌丰度,以及丰度占比较大的细菌类别,比较两组患者尿液细菌种类、数量及细菌丰度的差异,明确结壳组患者尿液中丰度占比较大的细菌菌属。结果两组患者的年龄、性别、体质指数、置管侧别、内支架管型号及结石成分差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。16s DNA检测结果显示,结壳组丰度占比>1%的菌属数量为11个,丰度占比>0.01%的菌属数量为74个;无结壳组丰度占比>1%的菌属数量为7个,丰度占比>0.01%的菌属数量为11个,两组丰度占比>1%的菌属数量比较差异有统计学意义(t=5.12,P=0.000)。结壳组中菌属丰度占比前3位分别为乳杆菌属(23.1%)、拟杆菌属(18.8%)和未分级拟杆菌属(17.1%),非结壳组中菌属丰度占比前3位分别是为埃希菌-志贺菌属(32.2%)、肠球菌属(24.9%)和假单胞菌属(18.2%)。两组间差异最大的3种细菌是乳杆菌属(P=0.010),拟杆菌属(P=0.004)和未分级拟杆菌属(P=0.004)。结论支架管结壳患者尿液中细菌种类和数量都明显多于非支架管结壳患者。拟杆菌属细菌在支架管结壳患者尿液中的细菌种类丰度较大。     

Role of NK T cells in transplantation with particular emphasis on corneal transplantation

Natural killer T cells (NKT cells) are a unique subset of the immune system that possess characteristics of both an innate and adaptive immune response. This study reviews the reported roles of NKT cells in different solid transplantations such as cardiac, skin, liver, and corneal grafts as well as investigates a novel role of NKT cells in steroid-resistant corneal rejections. It is unknown why there is late corneal graft rejection despite being treated with immunosuppression. Our experimental data suggests NKT cells are playing a crucial part in steroid-resistant late graft rejections. While the pathophysiology of acute rejection is better understood, the process of chronic graft rejection is much less clear. Our data suggests NKT cells as a potential therapeutic target to prevent chronic transplant rejection which needs further investigation.     

螺旋CT在肺动脉栓塞诊断中的价值

目的:评价螺旋CT在诊断肺动脉栓塞中的作用。方法:16例肺动脉栓塞患者行螺旋CT肺动脉造影 (SCTA)检查,层厚3mm,扫描时间0.8s,对比剂注射速度3.5ml/s,总量100ml,扫描延迟时间15s。结果:16例 共644支,其中134支肺动脉及分支显示了栓塞,占20.8%。228支肺段肺动脉中,有56支显示肺动脉栓塞,占分 析肺动脉支的24.5%。204支亚段肺动脉中37支显示肺动脉栓塞,占分析肺动脉支15.4%。肺动脉栓塞的CT形 态:①直接征象为不同程度的肺动脉分支内充盈缺损。中心型充盈缺损17支,偏心型充盈缺损44支,附壁血栓型 34支,完全阻塞型39支。②间接征象胸膜下肺梗死灶,内乳动脉一侧增粗,肺纹理稀少,胸水,肺动脉高压。结论: 螺旋CT肺动脉造影是诊断肺动脉栓塞的快速、有效、无创伤的诊断方法。     

Twist在胃癌中的表达及其与临床病理学指标关系研究

目的：检测Twist蛋白在胃癌组织中的表达及与临床病理学指标的关系，探讨Twist蛋白在胃癌诊治中的临床应用价值。方法：应用鼠抗人Twist单克隆抗体免疫组织化学方法检测98例不同类型胃癌组织及32例正常胃组织中Twist的表达。结果：在98例胃癌组织中，Twist阳性表达60例（61.2％）；在正常胃组织中其阳性表达5例（15.2％），两者比较，P=0.000（X^2=20.06）；结合临床病理资料统计分析发现，Twist在胃癌组织中表达与肿瘤的分化程度、胃壁浸润、淋巴结转移及远处转移有关（X^2分别为6.577、9.557、9.87、4.88，P值分别为0.01、0.002、0.002、0.027）；而其表达与病人年龄、性别无关（X^2分别为0.226、0.331，P值分别为0.634、0.565）。结论：Twist在胃癌诊断中作用明确，并且在判断肿瘤分化程度、浸润、淋巴结转移等方面均具有较好的辅助诊断价值。     

A Clinical and Economic Evaluation of Endoscopic Ultrasound for Patients at Risk for Familial Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Background and Aims: Approximately 10% of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is familial. Approximately 50% of Ist-degree relatives (FDRs) have endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) findings of chronic pancreatitis. We modeled the natural history of these patients to compare 4 management strategies. Methods: We performed a systematic review, and created a Markov model for 45-year-old male FDRs, with findings of chronic pancreatitis on screening EUS. We compared 4 strategies: doing nothing, prophylactic total pancreatectomy (PTP), annual surveillance by EUS, and annual surveillance with EUS and fine needle aspiration (EUS/FNA). Outcomes incorporated mortality, quality of life, procedural complications, and costs. Results: In the Do Nothing strategy, the lifetime risk of cancer was 20%. Doing nothing provided the greatest remaining years of life, the lowest cost, and the greatest remaining quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). PTP provided the fewest remaining years of life, and the fewest remaining QALYs. Screening with EUS provided nearly identical results to PTP, and screening with EUS/FNA provided intermediate results between PTP and doing nothing. PTP provided the longest life expectancy if the lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer was at least 46%, and provided the most QALYs if the risk was at least 68%. Conclusions: FDRs from familial pancreatic cancer kindreds, who have EUS findings of chronic pancreatitis, have increased risk for cancer, but their precise risk is unknown. Without the ability to further quantify that risk, the most effective strategy is to do nothing.     

Pure word deafness due to left subcortical lesion: Neurophysiological studies of two patients

ObjectiveThis study investigated the auditory processing in two patients with pure word deafness (PWD) using neurophysiological experimental methods.MethodsWe recorded the auditory brainstem response (ABR), the middle latency auditory-evoked response (MLR) and the auditory-evoked event-related potentials (ERPs) in two patients with PWD after subcortical hemorrhage in the left temporal lobe.ResultsBoth patients showed normal response in ABR and abnormality in MLR. The latency of P300 evoked by right-ear stimulation was 51 ms longer in one patient and 26 ms longer in the other patient than that evoked by left-ear stimulation.ConclusionsOur results suggested that the prolongation of P300 latency could be caused by the deterioration of auditory stimulus processing and supported the hypothesis that the defect in auditory temporal resolution was an important factor in the development of PWD.SignificanceThis study demonstrated that recordings of ERP with auditory-evoked response such as ABR and MLR are useful to elucidate the deterioration of auditory stimulus processing in patients with PWD.
