多孔髓芯减压联合干细胞移植治疗股骨头坏死的早期随访结果

目的:探讨多孔髓芯减压联合自体骨髓干细胞移植治疗股骨头坏死的疗效及临床分析。方法:选择2003-02/2006-12在南京医科大学附属南京第一医院骨关节中心采用多孔髓芯减压联合干细胞移植治疗的股骨头坏死患者22例,共28髋,年龄17～48岁,根据世界骨循环研究学会(ARCO)的国际骨坏死分期标准:Ⅰ期13髋,Ⅱ期11髋,Ⅲ期4髋。长期使用激素史9例,长期酗酒史6例,外伤史5例,原因不明者2例。纳入标准:有髋关节疼痛,功能受限;经髋关节X射线片及MRI检查确诊;ARCO分期Ⅰ～Ⅲ期;患者知情同意并签署知情同意书。排除标准:其他髋关节疾病。自患者髂前上棘处行骨髓穿刺分离与培养骨髓间充质干细胞。取患肢大粗隆下大腿外侧纵向直切口约3.0cm,钝性分离至股骨,在C形臂机引导下自股骨头中心钻入3枚直径4.0mm斯氏针,选位置较好的斯氏针,将直径约8.0mm特制套管在斯氏针的引导下钻至股骨头关节软骨面下1.0～2.0mm,不穿破关节面。将一长注射器针头置入股骨头坏死中心,立即行X射线正侧位摄片,确保针头位于股骨头内,从针头向股骨头内加压注入自体骨髓间充质干细胞悬液1.5～2.0mL。术后12个月随访,每3个月1次,随访时门诊复查,拍正、侧位和蛙式位X射线片,行MRI检查,观察病情变化。使用髋关节Harris评分进行疗效评价,>90分为优,75～90分为良,60～74分为可,<60分评定为差。若Harris评分提高,X射线骨形态变化改善及MRI股骨头坏死区体积变小可认为联合治疗有效。结果:①22例患者均完成随访,进入结果分析。②随访3个月时X射线及MRI检查:2例(2髋)激素引起的Ⅲ期患者股骨头发生进一步变形及塌陷,其余患者在随访期间未出现严重并发症,不良反应及病情恶化。股骨头坏死体积由术前31.07%减小到17.46%。激素组治疗前后股骨头坏死体积差值小于外伤、酗酒组,就本随访资料而言激素组疗效不如外伤及酗酒组。③随访12个月Harris评分:由术前54.3上升到84.6,有较明显提高,其中优7髋(25.0%),良15髋(53.6%),可4髋(14.3%),差2髋(0.07%)。结论:多孔髓芯减压联合干细胞移植是治疗股骨头坏死的一种新手段,尤其适合于年青、ARCO-Ⅰ或Ⅱ期、非激素导致的股骨头坏死治疗。

Survey on pretransfusion testing

BACKGROUND: Hospitals and blood centers throughout the United States use a variety of reagents and methods to perform pretransfusion testing. A survey was developed to determine the reagents and methods in use and their relative prevalence in different work settings. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: A national survey on pretransfusion testing was conducted. Surveys were distributed to state and regional blood bank associations, which then distributed them to hospitals and blood centers within their region. In most instances, the blood centers distributed the survey to the local hospitals. Completed surveys were returned to the authors for review, and all information was entered into a database for analysis. RESULTS: Analysis of the data shows that the majority of blood banks use monoclonal reagents for ABO testing and monoclonal-polyclonal blended reagents for Rh testing. The data show that anti-IgG and polyclonal antihuman globulin reagents are used almost equally for antibody screening (detection) tests and that most blood banks use a three-cell antibody-screening test. Slightly more than 50 percent of hospitals use an immediate-spin crossmatch in the absence of unexpected antibodies. CONCLUSION: A number of approved reagents and methods are used by blood bank laboratories for pretransfusion testing. Facility size (number of beds) and type tend to influence the choice of methods and reagents employed. This survey provides an opportunity for blood bank laboratories to compare their current practices with those of their peers.     

Guided stem cell cardiopoiesis: discovery and translation

Over 1000 patients have participated worldwide in clinical trials exploring the therapeutic value of bone marrow-derived cells in ischemic heart disease. Meta-analysis evaluation of this global effort indicates that adult stem cell therapy is in general safe, but yields a rather modest level of improvement in cardiac function and structural remodeling in the setting of acute myocardial infarction or chronic heart failure. Although promising, the potential of translating adult stem cell-based therapy from bench to bedside has yet to be fully realized. Inter-trial and inter-patient variability contribute to disparity in the regenerative potential of transplanted stem cells with unpredictable efficacy on follow-up. Strategies that mimic the natural embryonic program for uniform recruitment of cardiogenic progenitors from adult sources are currently tested to secure consistent outcome. Guided cardiopoiesis has been implemented with mesenchymal stem cells obtained from bone marrow of healthy volunteers, using a cocktail of secreted proteins that recapitulate components of the endodermal secretome critical for cardiogenic induction of embryonic mesoderm. With appropriate validation of this newly derived cardiopoietic phenotype, the next generation of trials should achieve demonstrable benefit across patient populations.     

Indeterminate colitis: the real story

PURPOSE: Up to one in five patients undergoing surgery for ulcerative colitis will have ambiguous histology, with features of both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, and are categorized as having indeterminate colitis. We hypothesized that functional outcomes in indeterminate colitis patients undergoing ileal pouch-anal anastomosis are comparable with those of ulcerative colitis patients undergoing ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. METHODS: Physician-conducted interviews of 120 consecutive ileal pouch-anal anastomosis patients with a preoperative diagnosis of ulcerative colitis were reviewed, with a mean follow-up of 54 months. All colectomy specimens were reviewed by a single pathologist. Any changes in histologic diagnosis from ulcerative colitis to indeterminate colitis or Crohn's disease, frequency of postoperative complications, pouch function, and long-term postoperative medication usage were recorded. RESULTS: Although postoperative fistulas were more common in indeterminate colitis than ulcerative colitis (26 vs. 10 percent; P = 0.02, chi-squared), no indeterminate colitis patient required a permanent ileostomy as compared with six ulcerative colitis patients. Long-term functional results were similar. Overall, two-thirds of patients developed pouchitis. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients were more likely to have had >3 episodes of pouchitis (58 and 72 percent) compared with indeterminate colitis patients (29 percent; P = 0.006, chi-squared). A greater number of Crohn's disease patients required maintenance oral antibiotic therapy (64 percent) to achieve satisfactory functional results compared with both indeterminate colitis and ulcerative colitis patients (20 and 28 percent; P = 0.014, chi-squared). CONCLUSIONS: Although ileal pouch-anal anastomosis patients with indeterminate colitis have more postoperative fistulas, long-term function is equal to that of ulcerative colitis patients and better than Crohn's disease patients. Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis should be offered to patients with indeterminate colitis and those with severe colitis in whom clear differentiation between indeterminate colitis and ulcerative colitis cannot be made.
