Plasma C-peptide levels and clinical remissions in recent-onset type I diabetic patients treated with cyclosporin A and insulin

Remission from insulin dependency in insulin-treated recent-onset type I (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients can result from a partial recovery of insulin secretion, an improvement in tissue sensitivity to insulin, or both. The same hypothesis must be analyzed when remission occurs in cyclosporin A (CsA)-treated patients. In this study, plasma C-peptide levels were serially measured in the basal state and after stimulation in 219 recent-onset type I diabetic patients; 129 received CsA, and all patients were similarly monitored and insulin treated. The results were analyzed in view of the occurrence of remission. Remission was defined as good metabolic control in the absence of hypoglycemic treatment for greater than or equal to 1 mo. Remission occurred in 44% of the CsA-treated group and lasted for mean +/- SE 10.0 +/- 0.9 mo vs. 21.6% in the non-CsA-treated group with a duration of 4.4 +/- 0.8 mo. Plasma C-peptide levels were initially dramatically lower than normal in both groups in the basal and stimulated states. C-peptide levels increased significantly later, at 3 and 6 mo, in both groups. C-peptide values were proportional to the rates of remission in both groups. In the non-CsA-treated group, C-peptide levels later decreased, and these patients inexorably relapsed to insulin dependency. In contrast, in the CsA-treated group, the initial recovery in insulin secretory capacity was maintained over the 18-24 mo of the study. Furthermore, higher remission rates and longer-lasting remission were obtained in patients who reached higher C-peptide levels at the 3rd mo of treatment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

角膜地形图与角膜曲率计在白内障手术前后评价

本文应用计算机辅助的角膜地形图系统TMS-1和角膜曲率计TOPCONOM-4同时测定了200例(278眼)的角膜地形图和中央角膜屈光状态。比较了角膜地形图的模拟角膜曲率SIMK值和角膜曲率计的垂直和水平屈光度。结果显示,白内障术前组116例150眼的SIMK平均值分别为44.22D(垂直轴)和44.26D(水平轴),角膜曲率计的中央屈光度垂直轴平均为44.16D,水平轴为44.23D。统计学处理表明,2种组方法的结果之间差异无显著性(P>0.05),第2种术后组67例90眼的SIMK平均值分别为46.37D(垂直轴)和43.06D(水平轴),角膜曲率计的中央屈光度垂直轴平均为46.09D,水平轴平均为42.88D,统计学处理二种方法的结果之间差异无显著性(P>0.05)。研究提示,角膜地形图系统的模拟角膜曲率SIMK值和角膜曲率计的屈光度无论在白内障手术前还是在手术后其结果是一致的,临床应用具有同等的价值。但是,当角膜中央屈光度异常范围小于3毫米,角膜混浊,角膜严重不规则散光时,角膜曲率计不能满足临床需要。而计算机辅助的角膜地形图系统则具有极大的诊断及检测价值。眼科学报 1994;10:85—89。

丙型肝炎病毒感染对肾移植术后影响的临床研究

OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection on the clinical outcome of kidney transplantation. METHODS: The recipient/graft survival, the incidence of acute/chronic rejection and cause of death in 86 HCV-infected recipients of renal transplantation were compared with those in another 86 recipients without HCV infection. RESULTS: HCV-infected recipients had significantly shorter 5-year survival (74.4%) than those without HCV infection (87.2%, P<0.01). The 1-year (94.2%/90.7% vs 96.8%/96.0%) and 3-year recipient/graft survival rates (88.4%/79.1% vs 90.7%/87.2%), the incidence of acute/chronic rejection (31.3% vs 21.2%, and 12.5% vs 6.5%) and the 5-year graft survival (73.3%/81.4%) were comparable between the two groups (P>0.05). Hepatic disease was identified as the primary cause of mortality. CONCLUSIONS: HCV infection may affect the long-term survival of the recipients with kidney transplantation, and therefore should be considered as a relative contraindication of kidney transplantation.
