The sexually transmitted infections pose a real public health problem, mainly in developing countries. In Tunisia, the epidemiological state is not precise. The objective of our study was to determine the sociological, epidemiological and bacteriological characteristics of gonococcal urethritis in the area of Sfax. The study was performed on all patients attending at the CNSS of Sfax for urethritis for 5 years, from 1996 to 2000. A urethral swab was carried out for each patient with a classic bacteriological exam. 256 cases were collected. The mean age was 29.7 years. 74.3% were workers. The direct exam was positive in 51.2% of cases and the culture enabled us to isolate 72 strains, of which 15.5% were productive of beta-lactamase and 23.9% were resistant to tetracyclin. There was no resistance to pristinamycin, ofloxacin nor spectinomycin. 相似文献

Causative genes for childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) are unknown partly because families are small or phenotypically heterogeneous. In five consanguineous Tunisian families with at least two sibs with CAE, 14 patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for CAE (Epilepsia 1989;30:389–399). Linkage analyses or direct sequencing excluded CACNG2, CACNA1A, CACNB4, and CACNA2D2, orthologs of genes responsible for autosomal recessive (AR) absence seizures in mice. These families will help identify (a) gene(s) responsible for CAE. 相似文献

Neutropenia is a major risk factor for developing a serious infection. Bacteremia still causes significant mortality among neutropenic patients with cancer. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for septic shock and for mortality in neutropenic patients with leukemia and bacteremia. Consecutive samples from 20 patients with acute myeloid leukemia and bacteremia were studied during a 1 year period (January-December 2003). All patients received empirical antibiotic therapies for febrile episodes using ceftazidime plus amikacin. About 110 neutropenic febrile episodes were noted: clinically documented 14.54%, microbiologically documented 16.36% and fever of unknown origin 69.09%. Gram-negative organism caused eight febrile episodes: Pseudomonas (5), Klebsiella (3). Gram-positive organism caused 10 episodes: Staphylococcus (6), Streptococci (2), Enterococci (2). Pulmonary infection accounted for 25% of clinically documented infections. About 14 of the 110 febrile episodes were associated with septic shock causing mortality in 7 patients. In a univariate analysis variables associated with septic shock were: pulmonary infection (OR = 17, p = 0.001), serum bicarbonate < 17 mmol/l (OR = 68, p < 0.001) and serum lactate >3 mmol/l (OR = 62, p < 0.001). Variables associated with mortality were: pulmonary infection (OR = 83, p < 0.001) and serum bicarbonate < 17 mmol/l (OR = 61, p < 0.001). In a multivariate analysis two variables were associated with septic shock: pulmonary infection (OR = 5, p = 0.043) and serum lactate >3 mmol/l (OR = 10, p = 0.003). An elevated serum lactate (>3 mmol/l) and low serum bicarbonate ( < 17 mmol/l) at the onset of bacteremia are useful biomarkers in predicting septic shock and mortality in neutropenic patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha (slL-2Ralpha) is a well-known indicator of T-cell activation noted to be increasing in nasopharyngeal cancer. The aims of this study were to evaluate the importance of the use of this marker in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS: Our prospective study interested 45 patients (35M/10F) with a mean age of 49 years (15 to 78), presenting a nasopharyngeal carcinoma histologically confirmed and 61 healthy controls. A blood sample was collected from each patient before any treatment, as well as controls to measure sIL-2Ralpha by immunoenzymatic assay. According to the disease status after a period of follow-up ranging from three to 22 months (median 12 months), patients were divided into two groups: The remission group (n=28) represented those with favourable evolution and a second group of 15 patients with unfavourable evolution (2 death, 4 cases of persistent primary disease and 9 patients with distance metastasis). 2 patients were lost to follow-up. RESULTS: serum sIL-2Ralpha levels were significantly higher in patients vs healthy controls (p < 0.0001). The serum levels correlated with the stage T of NPC (p = 0.01). Patients having a favourable evolution have lower sIL-2Ralpha levels before treatment vs those with unfavourable evolution without statistical difference. CONCLUSION: Measurement of serum sIL-2Ralpha provides a good estimation of the nasopharyngeal tumor burden. The usefulness of this marker as a parameter to predict prognosis in NPC should be examined further. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the endogenous erythropoietin production in cancer patients with anemia. METHODS: Our prospective study interested 99 cancer patients with anemia from 17 to 80 years old, during the period going from March 2002 to December 2004, and 31 healthy individuals with anemia caused by iron deficiency. A blood sample was collected from each patient, as well as healthy individuals to measure serum erythropoietin, C reactive protein and ferritin. RESULTS: The increase of serum erythropoietin was significantly lower in patients than in healthy individuals (P < 0.05). 25.2% of our cancer patients have inflammatory anemia and 74.7% presented microcytic anemia associated with increase of serum ferririn and CRP. These values were significantly higher than in healthy individuals (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Anemia in cancer patients results from activation of inflammatory system, which inhibit erythropoietin production. Apart from etiologic treatments, anemia can be treated with recombinant human erythropoietin. 相似文献

Background
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a systemic disease in the elderly. Its incidence in patients younger than 40 years old and especially in pregnant women is extremely rare. MM may involve extraosseous sites, and only in rare cases it is observed in the breast.Case report
We describe the case of a 39-year-old woman diagnosed with an IgG lambda light-chain MM (Durie-Salmon stage IIIA, International Staging System II) in the 26th week of pregnancy, presenting with bilateral breast lumps. Dexamethasone (20 mg/m2/day on days 1–4, 9–12, and 17–20) was given as an induction agent to decrease tumor mass during pregnancy. Adverse response to dexamethasone was minor with excellent tolerance. A healthy baby was delivered at week 34 of gestation.Conclusion
Breast nodules revealing MM are extremely rare. Clinical and radiological features are atypical. Presentation during pregnancy is extremely rare, making anti-MM treatment potentially challenging. 相似文献7.

Patients with acute leukemia who initially survive invasive fungal disease must receive chemotherapy or go on to transplant. Many centers change subsequent chemotherapy to decrease the risk of fungal reactivation. This case-control study compared acute leukemia patients (n=28) who developed a proven or probable fungal disease and survived four weeks later, to patients who did not (n=78), and assessed the impact of fungal disease on the chemotherapy regimens, and overall and event-free survival. Chemotherapy changes (i.e. delays, dose-reduction) were more frequent in the fungal (68%) than in the control group (24%) (P<0.001). Although there was no difference in overall and event-free survival between groups, they were both lower for proven fungal disease cases when compared to controls (HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.1-1.5, and HR 2.9, 95% CI 1.4-5.6, respectively). Patients with invasive fungal disease, even though they initially survive, undergo significant changes to their chemotherapy therapy. This impacts on the survival of patients with proven fungal disease. 相似文献

Buschke-L?wenstein tumor (BLT), or giant condyloma acuminatum, is a rare sexually transmitted disease. The virus responsible for condyloma is human papillomavirus, usually serotype 6 or 11. A BLT is always preceded by condyloma acuminatum and may occur at any age after puberty. It is characterized by invasive growth and recurrence after treatment, and malignant transformation is possible. We report the case of a 44-year-old male patient with a 2-year history of a penoscrotal Buschke-L?wenstein tumor. 相似文献

Horizontal gaze palsy with progressive scoliosis (HGPPS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the congenital
absence of horizontal gaze, progressive scoliosis, and failure of the corticospinal and somatosensory axon tracts to decussate
in the medulla. HGPPS is caused by mutations of the ROBO3 gene, which encodes a protein that shares homology with the roundabout family of transmembrane receptors that are important
in axon guidance and neuronal migration. To date, over 15 mutations have been found in consanguineous families of Greek, Italian,
Turkish, Pakistani, Saudi Arabian, and Indian descent. To detail clinical, cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and genetic
findings of ten HGPPS patients from four unrelated Tunisian families. Four unrelated consanguineous Tunisian families with
a total of ten patients suffering from horizontal gaze palsy with progressive scoliosis. Genetic linkage analysis and direct
sequencing of the ROBO3 gene. All patients shared similar clinical gaze movement abnormalities and variable degrees of scoliosis. Four distinct homozygous
mutations were identified. This study extends the molecular spectrum of the ROBO3 gene and the geographic origin of patients with ROBO3 gene mutations, and underlines the homogeneity of the motor ocular syndrome whatever type of mutation is encountered. 相似文献
