Detection of hepatocellular carcinoma after interferon therapy for chronic hepatitis C: Clinical study of 26 cases

The clinical findings in 26 patients in whom hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was detected after the start of interferon (IFN) therapy for chronic hepatitis C were analysed. Histological study before IFN therapy showed that 34.6% of patients were categorized as stage 3 (septal fibrosis with architectural distortion; the 0–4 scale) and 80.8% demonstrated at least some evidence of septal fibrosis or more advanced features. The AFP levels examined before IFN therapy were more than 20 ng/mL in 13 patients (84.6% of those studied). One of 26 patients had a complete response to IFN therapy, while six of 26 patients had only a partial response. HCC was detected within 1 year after the start of IFN therapy in 76.9% of patients. Thus, the possibility of the early occurrence of HCC or its existence at the time of therapy should be seriously considered when IFN therapy is contemplated. Patients with stage 3 or 3–4 histology may already have a small undetectable HCC before IFN therapy. Thus, for this reason, every patient treated with IFN should be examined at short regular intervals for the development of HCC during and after IFN therapy.     

HCV HVR1准种在不同基因型丙型肝炎患者中的分布

目的:通过研究丙型肝炎病毒高变区1(HCV HVR1)准种复杂性与基因型之间的关系,探讨不同基因型HCV致病性差异的机制.方法:采用C区型特异性引物PCR法进行HCV基因分型,采用单链构象多态性聚合酶链反应法(SSCP法)检测HCV HVR1准种.结果:68例丙型肝炎患者中,Ⅱ型49例(72%),Ⅲ型13例(19%),Ⅱ、Ⅲ混合型6例(9%).Ⅱ型和Ⅱ、Ⅲ混合型HCV感染患者的HCV HVR1准种复杂性(SSCP条带数)明显高于Ⅲ型感染的患者,且与疾病严重程度关系密切.结论:HCV HVR1准种复杂性的差异可能是导致不同基因型HCV致病性差异的因素之一.     

心脏机械膜瓣置换术后血浆蛋白C和蛋白S活性变化及其与INR的关系

目的:探讨机械瓣膜置换术后口服华法令抗凝的患者血浆蛋白C(PC)、蛋白S(PS)活性改变的意义及其与国际标准IL比值(INR)的关系。方法:动态监测15例心脏机械瓣膜置换术后口服抗凝药初期患者服药1-2 d、3~10 d及1个月的PC、PS活性及INR值。结果:患者组PC、PS活性低于正常对照组(P<0.05),特别是术后3-10 d PC、PS活性明显低于正常对照组(P<0.01),已下降到正常的50％左右,而此时INR尚未达到治疗范围,提示口服抗凝药治疗初期在人体凝血功能未下调时,抗凝系统功能已经开始下降,有发生血栓的倾向;并且,随着抗凝强度的增高(INR低于1.5-高于2.5),PC、PS活性明显下降。结论:口服华法令抗凝患者在监测INR的同时,需要进行血浆PC、PS活性监测,以更好地预防血栓的发生。     

鞘内注射吗啡对切口疼痛大鼠脊髓背角蛋白激酶Cγ免疫反应的影响

目的 研究鞘内注射吗啡对切口疼痛大鼠脊髓背角蛋白激酶Cγ(PKCγ)免疫反应的影响。方法 SD雄性大鼠24只,随机分为4组(每组6只):假手术组(Ⅰ组)、对照组(Ⅱ组)术前30 min鞘内注射人工脑脊液20μl,术后吗啡治疗组(Ⅲ组)、术前吗啡治疗组(Ⅳ组)分别于术后和术前30min鞘内注射吗啡5μg(10 μl)。所有大鼠均按Brennan法制成切口疼痛模型,用免疫组织化学方法观察脊髓背角PKCγ的表达。结果 Ⅱ组术侧脊髓背角PKCγ-IR表达高于非术侧及Ⅰ组(P<0.01)。与Ⅱ组比较,Ⅲ组、Ⅳ组脊髓背角PKCγ-IR表达降低(P<0.05或0.01),而Ⅲ组、Ⅳ组比较差异无显著性。结论 在大鼠切口疼痛模型中,鞘内注射吗啡的镇痛作用可能与抑制脊髓背角的PKCγ-IR免疫反应有关。     

Treatment of hepatitis B and C after liver transplantation. Part 2, hepatitis C

Abstract End-stage liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus is a major indication for liver transplantation. However, recurrence of hepatitis in the graft is a major issue. HCV re-infection after transplantation is almost constant, and recent data confirm that it significantly impairs patient and graft survival. Factors that may influence disease severity and consequent progression of HCV graft injury remain unclear. Chronic HCV infection develops in 60%–80% of patients, and 6%–28% ultimately progress to cirrhosis within 5 years. Pre-transplantation antiviral treatment is not easily related to poor tolerance. Attempts to administer prophylactic post-transplantation antiviral treatment are under evaluation but are limited by antiviral drug side effects. Treatment of established graft lesions with interferon or ribavirin as single agents has been disappointing. Combination therapy gave promising results, with sustained virological response in 25% of patients, but indications, modality and duration of treatment should be assessed.

Albumin Adsorption and Retention on C18-Alkyl-Derivatized Polyurethane Vascular Grafts

The short-term albumin affinity and thrombo-resistance of a polyether polyurethane vascular graft have been improved. The method is based on the C18 alkylation of the polymer. Thrombus formation by a planimetric technique and albumin retention on wire-reinforced polyurethane tubes, both C18 alkylated and untreated, were measured in short-term (4-h) exposure at femoral arterial sites in the dog. 125I-Albumin was preabsorbed on tubes and then exposed to blood for successive 2-h periods. Albumin uptake on alkylated tubes prior to blood exposure and retention following 2 h of blood exposure were significantly greater than on controls. Following a fast desorption phase in blood, the remaining albumin was more slowly desorbed from alkylated than from control tubes. Reincubation with albumin and blood reexposure produced a similar tendency, suggesting blood conditioning does not reduce the albumin affinity-enhancing property of C18 alkylation in the short term. Blood-preconditioning experiments suggested endogenous albumin has a high affinity for the C18-alkylated surface. Scanning electron microscopic examination showed thrombus and platelet densities were higher on control than on alkylated surfaces. These results suggest in vivo albumin affinity is increased for C18-alkylated polyurethane, which may be linked to decreased thrombus formation on these surfaces.
