Transfusion-related acute lung injury caused by an NB2 granulocyte- specific antibody in a patient with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura

HLA and granulocyte-specific antibodies have been implicated in the production of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). Reported here is a case that suggests that the patient's preexisting condition may play an important role in determining whether TRALI develops upon transfusion of blood products containing anti-white cell (WBC) antibodies. A 29-year-old woman with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) underwent an uneventful 1.5-volume plasma exchange, which was followed by the transfusion of 2 red cell (RBC) units. At the end of the second RBC transfusion, the patient developed clinical signs and symptoms of noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. Serologic studies demonstrated that the serum from the second RBC donor had no HLA antibodies but did have a granulocyte-specific antibody (anti-NB2) that caused the agglutination of the recipient's granulocytes, which were NB2 positive. Serum from the donor of the first RBC unit and serum from the donors of units used in the exchange had no HLA or granulocyte-specific antibodies that reacted with the recipient's WBCs. Because the donor implicated in this reaction had a history of 21 blood donations, none of which had been associated with a transfusion reaction, we suggest that the patient's preexisting condition played a significant role in this episode of TRALI, owing to the granulocyte-specific antibody.     

外旋外展推顶法治疗肩关节前脱位

目的：探讨外旋外展推顶法治疗肩关节前脱住可行性及疗效。方法：自1995年1月～2009年12月,采用外旋外展推顶法治疗肩关节前脱住500例,治疗后根据恢复症状及并发症,分析治疗方法的可行性及疗效。结果：所有患者均获得随访,时间为6个～1年;500例治愈432例。好转68例,无效O例。结论：外旋外展推项法治疗肩关节前脱住是一种可行的方法,较其他方法有更大的优点。     

异基因造血干细胞移植受者代谢综合征的发生情况

异基因造血干细胞移植（hematopoieticcelltransplantation,HCT）后代谢综合征的发生主要由预处理导致的神经激素系统紊乱、血管内皮损伤、移植物的免疫和炎症作用以及继发的移植物抗宿主病及其治疗等引起。对代谢综合征及其组分（糖尿病、高血压、血脂紊乱等）的筛查可以尽早地调整治疗策略,控制危险因素的发生,进而降低远期的心血管疾病的发生率和致死率。为此,美国的研究人员回顾性分析了86例异基因HCT受者代谢综合征的发生情况,并与代谢综合征在普通人群中的流行情况进行比较。     

A new variant of the ATP13A2 gene in Chinese patients with early-onset parkinsonism

Parkinson＇s disease （PD） is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a selective loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. Clinical manifestations of this complex disease include resting tremor, bradykinesia, postural instability, gait difficulty and rigidity. Approximately 5%-10% of patients have genetic factors, yet etiology of PD remains unclear. Genetic deficits, environmental exposure, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction,

The role of colonic metabolism in lactose intolerance

Lactose maldigestion and intolerance affect a large part of the world population. The underlying factors of lactose intolerance are not fully understood. In this review, the role of colonic metabolism is discussed, i.e. fermentation of lactose by the colonic microbiota, colonic processing of the fermentation metabolites and how these processes would play a role in the pathophysiology of lactose intolerance. We suggest that the balance between the removal and production rate of osmotic–active components (lactose, and intermediate metabolites, e.g. lactate, succinate, etc.) in the colon is a key factor in the development of symptoms. The involvement of the colon may provide the basis for designing new targeted strategies for dietary and clinical management of lactose intolerance.
