Danazol increases factor VIII and factor IX in classic hemophilia and Christmas disease 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We gave danazol (600 mg per day orally for 14 days), an attenuated androgen, to four adults with classic hemophilia and one adult with Christmas disease. The levels of factor VIII in the patients with classic hemophilia ranged from 1 to 3 per cent before treatment and rose to 3 to 8 per cent during the treatment period. The level of factor IX in the patient with Christmas disease rose from 5 to 14 per cent. The rise in clotting-factor activity was usually observed within five to six days after the initiation of therapy and peaked between 7 and 13 days. The drug had no untoward effects. During the 70 patient-days of therapy, only two patients required plasma products, each on one occasion. These data suggest that danazol therapy may decrease the hemorrhagic tendency and reduce the need for transfusions of plasma products in classic hemophilia and Christmas disease. Controlled clinical trials will be required to establish its value in these applications. 相似文献

Three patients with Christmas disease whose plasma was shown to have a prolonged one-stage prothrombin time with ox brain thromboplastin have been investigated. These patients have an inhibitor for the reaction between factor X, factor VII, and ox brain extract. The abnormal constituent responsible for this inhibitor appears to be factor IX whuch is functionally inactive but antigenically indistinguishable from normal factor IX. It is proposed that patients might be classified into haemophilia B(+) for patients with this defect (Christmas disease(+)) and haemophilia B(-) (Christmas disease(-)) for patients who have classical Christmas disease. 相似文献

Occupational type I allergy to Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The study aimed to determine whether occupational contact urticaria and symptoms of mucous membranes, reported by five workers in a cactus nursery, were due to IgE-mediated allergy to Schlumbergera cacti. The five persons had positive skin prick tests to the plants as is and positive histamine-release tests, and in three of them specific IgE to the cacti could be demonstrated by Maxisorp RAST and immunoblotting. Four of the patients were atopic, and the fifth had a positive skin prick test to cat dander, indicating latent atopy. Skin prick tests with cacti were negative in most atopic volunteers, and all had negative histamine-release tests. The results suggest a true IgE-mediated allergy to the cacti, and both genetic predisposition and close contact with the plants at work seem to be important factors in the emergence of this new occupational allergy. 相似文献

Adoptive transfer of mature T cells (ATMTC) through bone marrow (BM) transplantation, first attempted over 20 years ago, has recently emerged as a successful therapy for complete 22q deletion syndrome (22qDS). This provides a potential option to thymic transplantation (TT) for immune reconstitution in 22qDS. Compared to thymic transplant, ATMTC is an easier procedure to accomplish and is available at more centers. However, there are differences in the nature of the T-cell reconstitution that results. Predictably, more naïve T cells and recent thymic emigrants are present in patients treated with thymus transplant. There are no significant differences in mortality between the two procedures, but the number of patients is too limited to conclude that the procedures are equally effective. Adoptive transfer should be pursued as a reasonable treatment for 22qDS patients requiring immune reconstitution when thymus transplant is not available. 相似文献

Hereditary factor IX deficiency (hemophilia B) is among the more common hereditary bleeding disorders and factor IX assays are among the more common specific factor assays performed by coagulation laboratories. To assess the sensitivity of various reagents used for performance of activated partial thromboplastin times and factor IX assays, a series of samples with varying levels of factor IX were included in the 1988 College of American Pathologists Survey Program. We found significant differences in the sensitivity of reagents to factor IX deficiency. Surprisingly, the least sensitive reagents were among the most commonly used reagents. Significant differences in the classification of activated partial thromboplastin times as abnormal were noted between H1 and H2 survey participants. As with factor VIII assays, significant differences in the dose-response curves for factor IX deficiency were noted between reagents, with more responsive reagents giving more precise results for factor IX assays. Comparison of factor IX assay performance in 1988 with 1980 performance indicates a substantial improvement in assay precision. However, a further improvement in assay performance could be expected if current recommendations were followed. 相似文献

The authors summarized 10 our papers on the mechanisms of pulmonary congestion in ligature strangulation. Since old times, a hypothesis based on hypersecretion of adrenaline at agonal stage in asphyxia is well-known. From our investigations, this hypothesis seemed to be applicable to ligature strangulated guinea-pig's lungs at least. 相似文献
