中央脊髓综合征的手术治疗

背景：中央脊髓综合征是常见的不完全性颈脊髓损伤,目前关于其手术与非手术处理的利与弊仍是脊柱外科争论的焦点。目的：探讨中央脊髓综合征的手术治疗效果及预后。方法：回顾性分析2009年1月至2012年6月采用手术治疗的34例中央脊髓综合征患者的临床资料,男24例,女10例;年龄39~76岁,平均53.6岁;前路手术26例,后路手术8例。采用日本骨科协会（JOA）评分标准对患者神经功能进行评定,记录所有患者术前、术后6个月及末次随访的JOA评分,评估手术疗效并分析其预后情况。结果：34例患者全部获得随访,随访时间为6~23个月,平均（14.5±3.8）个月。术前JOA评分平均为（8.8±1.8）分,术后6个月提高至（13.9±2.1）分,末次随访为（14.6±1.5）分。术后6个月及末次随访时的评分改善率分别为（66.1±21.6）%和（73.6±15.2）%。术后1例发生脑脊液漏,1例发生硬膜外血肿,无一例发生椎动脉损伤、切口感染、内固定物失败等并发症。结论：手术解除椎管内的压迫是治疗中央脊髓综合征的有效方法。对于诊断明确的中央脊髓综合征,在全身情况允许的条件下,宜早期根据椎管内脊髓损伤的节段、压迫来源及程度等选择相应的手术方案,以改善脊髓内血供,减少脊髓继发性损害,促进神经功能的改善和恢复。

High Rates of Community and Hospital Acquired Infections in Patients with Cellular Immunodeficiencies

Purpose

Patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) are perceived to be at high risk for acquiring as well as developing complications from infections. There is little data describing the infection type and frequency these patients may acquire in the community or during hospital admissions. Data is critically needed in order to inform best practices on how to protect these vulnerable patients.

Methods

This is a retrospective study which included PID patients who were discharged from Children’s National Health System (CNHS) from January 1, 2011, through August 31, 2017, and were assigned a discharge diagnosis code indicating PID. Hospitalizations that occurred in the study period were reviewed to extract information on the type of infections upon admission and during hospitalization. The rate of hospital acquired infections (HAIs) was calculated by the number of HAIs divided by the total number of days between date of admission and date of discharge or receiving the first bone marrow transplant, whichever the one came first. The rates were then compared to the HAI rate among oncology patients receiving treatment at CNHS during the same study period.

Results

During this study period, 33 PID patients were admitted 80 times for a total of 1855 patient days. Of these 80 admissions, 31 were due to an infection. Ten of the 31 admissions with severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) were infection related, 4/4 in ectodermal dysplasia with immunodeficiency due to gain of function mutation (IkappaBalpha) patients, 8/10 in Wiskott-Aldrich patients, 1/2 in STAT3 mutation patients, 1/1 in Hyper IGM patient, 1/5 in severe chronic active EBV (SCAEBV) patients, 1/1 NK defect, 2/21 in primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patients, 3/4 chronic granulomatous disease, and 0/1 congenital neutropenia. HAI occurred in 11 out of 80 admissions (13.75%). Patients with SCID had the highest HAI rate of 13.09 per 1000 patient days, followed by SCAEBV (11.10), IkappaBalpha (6.58), and Wiskott-Aldrich (4.91). Comparing to oncology patients in which the HAI rate was 0.92 per 1000 patient days. SCID patients had 11.7 (95% confidence interval 3.7–29; p?<?0.001) and T cell defects excluding SCID had 4.8 (95% CI 1.0–14.8; p?=?0.03) times greater risk of acquiring an infection during a hospitalization.

Conclusions

Patients with severe T cell defects such as SCID are at greater risk for infections in the community and in hospital settings. Additional infection prevention measures are likely needed when caring for these patients in a clinic or as an inpatient. Further studies are urgently needed to determine the most appropriate measures for these patients.

     

Calcium ionophore and chemotactic peptide stimulation of peptidoleukotriene synthesis in DMSO-differentiated HL60 cells

The human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL60 can be differentiated to mature granulocytes upon exposure to DMSO (1.3%, 6 days). The ability of these cells to metabolize arachidonic acid via the 5-lipoxygenase pathway to form 5-HETE, LTB₄, and 5,12-diHETEs, has been previously documented. However, the production of peptidoleukotrienes by DMSO-differentiated HL60 cells has not been previously reported. Arachidonic acid metabolites produced via 5-lipoxygenase were identified by reverse-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography, immunoreactivity specific for peptidoleukotriene, glutamyl transpeptidase transformation, characteristic UV spectra, and GC mass spectra. Leukotriene synthesis in the DMSO-differentiated HL60 cell is maximal at 5 min when stimulated with the calcium ioniphore, A23187 (1M), in the presence of calcium. These cells produce 12.94±1.8 ng/10⁶ cells of LTC₄ and 3.8±0.4 ng/10⁶ cells of LTB₄. LTC₄ and LTB₄ are also synthesized in the undifferentiated cell when stimulated with 1M A23187 and 1 mM Ca²⁺, but in much smaller quantities, i.e., 1.91±0.42 ng/10⁶ cells of LTC₄ and 0.41 ng±0.06/10⁶ cells of LTB₄. The synthetic chemotactic peptide, f-Met-Leu-Phe, also elicits formation of LTC₄ and LTB₄ in a dose-dependent manner in the presence of exogenously added calcium. Maximal stimulation of DMSO-differentiated cells with f-Met-Leu-Phe produces 2.5±0.2 ng of LTC₄ and 1.45±0.2 ng of LTB₄ per 10⁶ cells. The observation that DMSO-differentiated HL60 cells produce LTC₄, as well as other 5-lipoxygenase products, increases the utility of this cell line for unraveling the regulation of leukotriene biosynthesis by granulocytes.
