神经肌电检测对单侧喉返神经损伤预后的评价

目的 探讨喉神经肌电位综合指标对声带麻痹预后的估价作用。方法 检测91例甲状腺手术单侧声带麻痹患者的喉神经电图及肌电位,按病程分成4组;分析各组恢复与未恢复声带运动的患者喉神经肌电位特征,以“95％可信区间”计算神经肌电位预后评估标准。结果 病程2个月内组最大诱发电位幅度明显低于2个月以上的其他各组,差异具有显著性意义(P<0.05),而2-4个月与4-6个月组的组间差异无显著性(P>0.05),故将病程2-6个月计为一组。2个月内组自然恢复与未恢复患者分别为2、11例,以引出诱发电位且无错向再生电位作为预后良好判断指标,准确率为92％(12/13)。2-6个月组恢复与未恢复患者各为11、48例,恢复者最大诱发电位幅度明显大于未恢复者,差异有显著性意义(P<0.01)。以引出诱发电位且电位幅度大于26.4％作为预后良好的判断标准,准确率90％(53/59);结合无错向再生电位综合判断预后,准确率为93％(55/59)。6个月以上组19例无论神经肌电位检查结果如何,声带运动均无恢复。结论 将神经肌电位进行综合分析,分别判断不同病程的声带麻痹的预后,可提高预后判断的准确率。

多重耐药鲍曼不动杆菌对替加环素敏感性降低的机制研究

目的探索多重耐药鲍曼不动杆菌临床分离株对替加环素敏感性降低的机制。方法应用E-test方法测定菌株对替加环素的敏感性,然后使用PCR和测序技术确定菌株中adeB、adeR和adeS外排泵基因的分布,最后运用实时荧光逆转录PCR技术测定adeB基因的表达水平。结果替加环素对46株受试菌的最低抑菌浓度(minimal inhibitory con-centration,MIC)范围为0.094～8μg/ml,MIC50=2μg/ml,MIC90=3μg/ml。菌株中adeB、adeS和adeR泵基因广泛分布,但adeB的相对表达量并一定随着MIC值的增加而增加。结论多重耐药鲍曼不动杆菌临床分离株对替加环素敏感性下降可能存在adeB基因表达调控以外的机制。     

Immunisation anti-érythrocytaire et anti-HLA au cours des hémoglobinopathies

AimEvaluate the anti-erythrocyte and anti-HLA immunization rates in hemoglobinopathies.Patients and methodsCross-sectional study (October 2009–March 2010) on 83 patients followed for hemoglobinopathies. The irregular antibodies research is realized by two techniques: indirect Coombs and enzymatic technique on gel cards. The search for anti-HLA class I antibodies is done by complement dependent lymphocytotoxicity.ResultsThe mean age was 30 years (14–64 years), the sex ratio M/F is 0.84. Our series included 42 cases of sickle cell disease (29 homozygous sickle cell anemia and 13 sickle-thalassemia) and 41 cases of thalassemia syndromes (26 major and 15 intermediate). The anti-erythrocyte alloimmunization rate is 10.84% without difference between thalassemia syndromes and sickle cell disease. The autoimmunization rate (22.89%) is higher in thalassemia syndromes (41.46%) than in the sickle cell disease (7.14%) (P < 0.001). The anti-HLA immunization rate is 31.6% without difference between thalassemia syndromes and sickle cell disease. The young age, transfusion at a young age and the total number of transfusions are the factors that increase the risk of anti-erythrocyte autoimmunization. No clinicobiological parameter does influence the anti-erythrocyte and anti-HLA alloimmunization. There is no significant association between anti-erythrocyte and anti-HLA immunization.ConclusionThe erythrocyte and anti-HLA anti-immunization rates are high in our series. Preventive strategy is needed to ensure optimal blood safety.     

Clearance and persistence of hepatitis C virus in a Tunisian population: association with HLA class I and class II

Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) of class I and class II are reported to influence the outcome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The aim of this study was to assess the role of HLA class I and class II in influencing spontaneous viral clearance or persistence in HCV-infected patients. HLA class I (A and B) typing was performed by lymphocytotoxicity test and HLA class II (DRB1) was determined by low-resolution PCR-SSP (polymerase chain reaction amplification with sequence-specific primers) for 99 subjects (48 men and 51 women). Of these, 75 had chronic infection and 24 had viral clearance. No significant differences were observed between individuals with spontaneous viral clearance or chronic HCV infection for age, sex, source of infection, and risk factors. HLAB-w35 and HLA-DRB1*08 occurred more frequently in those with viral clearance (21.7 and 16.6%, respectively) compared with those with chronic infection (5.5 and 2.6%; p < 0.04 and p < 0.01, respectively). DRB1*15 occurred more often in those with chronic infection (29.3%) compared with those with viral clearance (16.66%), but the difference did not reach statistical significance. These results support the hypothesis that specific HLA class I and class II alleles might influence the clearance or persistence of HCV infection. Both Bw35 and DRB1*08 are associated with clearance of circulating HCV whereas DRB1*15 appears to predispose to progression of liver disease in Tunisian patients. Taken together, our results and those previously reported suggest that HLA associations with the outcome of hepatitis C viremia vary in relation to the ethnicity of the population studied. Further prospective studies of larger cohorts of HCV-infected subjects are needed to evaluate, in different populations, the role of specific HLA class I and class II alleles in the outcome of HCV infection.     

EB病毒对新生儿脐带血单核细胞来源的树突状细胞表型的影响

从脐带血单核细胞来源树突状细胞(DC)表型变化的角度来探讨EB病毒对DC表型的影响,以阐明其逃逸宿主免疫的机制。将GM-CSF和IL-4、EB病毒和LPS不同组合对单核细胞来源DC进行刺激培养,利用单染色和三染色免疫荧光抗体标记—流式细胞术检测单核细胞来源DC表面CD14、CD11c、CD1a、HLA-DR、CD86、MR和MHCⅠ类分子。加入EB病毒后,DC表面CD14分子表达的下调不明显,CD1a的表达则随病毒加入时细胞的分化阶段有关;同时EB病毒还影响了加入LPS后HLA-DR和CD86的升高和MR的降低;EB病毒还影响了细胞表面MHCⅠ类分子的表达。因此EB病毒可抑制单核细胞来源DC的分化和成熟,这可能是其逃逸宿主免疫的机制之一。
