Retinal disease in the C3 glomerulopathies and the risk of impaired vision

Background: Dense deposit disease and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome are often caused by Complement Factor H (CFH) mutations. This study describes the retinal abnormalities in dense deposit disease and, for the first time, atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome. It also reviews our understanding of drusen pathogenesis and their relevance for glomerular disease. Methods: Six individuals with dense deposit disease and one with atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome were studied from 2 to 40 years after presentation. Five had renal transplants. All four who had genetic testing had CFH mutations. Individuals underwent ophthalmological review and retinal photography, and in some cases, optical coherence tomography, and further tests of retinal function. Results: All subjects with dense deposit disease had impaired night vision and retinal drusen or whitish-yellow deposits. Retinal atrophy, pigmentation, and hemorrhage were common. In late disease, peripheral vision was restricted, central vision was distorted, and there were scotoma from sub-retinal choroidal neovascular membranes and atypical serous retinopathy. Drusen were present but less prominent in the young person with atypical uremic syndrome due to a heterozygous CFH mutation. Conclusions: Drusen are common in forms of C3 glomerulopathy caused by compound heterozygous or heterozygous CFH mutations. They are useful diagnostically but also impair vision. Drusen have an identical composition to glomerular deposits. They are also identical to the drusen of age-related macular degeneration, and may respond to the same treatments. Individuals with a C3 glomerulopathy should be assessed ophthalmologically at diagnosis, and monitored regularly for vision-threatening complications.

Non-operative management of malignant intestinal obstruction

Intestinal obstruction is a relatively common clinical problem in patients with advanced cancer, particularly those with colorectal and ovarian tumours. A proportion of patients have a non-malignant cause for their obstruction, but in the remaining patients obstruction will be caused by advanced malignancy itself. In the past, most patients were either managed surgically or by nasogastric intestinal decompression and intravenous hydration. Surgery in patients with advanced cancer is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Effective surgical decompression is difficult. We have managed 24 patients with advanced abdominal malignancy and previous operative or radiological evidence of intestinal obstruction without operation. The technique is only appropriate for patients in whom a solitary or correctable obstructing lesion can be excluded. The patient is encouraged to take free fluid and a diet low in fibre. Intestinal colic is managed with morphine, the dose required being titrated for each individual patient against background pain and colic. Vomiting is controlled by the parenteral administration of antiemetic drugs. To simplify drug administration, morphine and metoclopramide are mixed in the same syringe and infused subcutaneously simultaneously. In our 24 patients the mean survival rate after the onset of complete obstruction was 29.2 days. The mean dose of morphine infused was 9.2 mg/h, and the mean dose of metoclopramide was 6.9 mg/h. The case of an 82-year-old male patient is presented. We commend the technique to surgeons contemplating surgery in these very difficult patients. It is simple, relatively non-invasive and saves the patients the pain, discomfort and complications of unproductive surgery.     

彩色多普勒超声心动图与核磁共振诊断主动脉夹层动脉瘤的对比研究

T cell response of I-Aq mice to self type II collagen: meshing of the binding motif of the I-Aq molecule with repetitive sequences results in autoreactivity to multiple epitopes

Type II collagen (CII) is of immunological interest because of its repetitive structure and properties as an autoantigen. The mouse gene has recently been cloned, thus enabling T cell-defined epitopes to be identified. Multiple novel epitopes on mouse CII are here detected in the autoreactive T cell response. The major response is directed to an epitope with residues 707-721 located on the CB10 fragment. Some 25 other epitopes are also recognized, including the autologous homologue of the 256-270 epitope which dominates in the response to foreign collagen. The cells reactive with mouse collagen peptides were of Th1 type, as judged by release of IFN-gamma. No significant reactivity was detected to mouse CII peptides during ongoing disease. Alignment of the mouse epitopes revealed a sequence motif with characteristic side chains at residues P1, P4 and P7, and to a lesser extent at P5, within a nonamer core sequence. Binding of these epitopes was simulated in a computer model of the I-Aq molecule, where peptides with anchor residues at P1, P4 and P7 were indeed found to fit the binding groove best. The spacing of pockets and the fine structure of the binding surface of the I-Aq molecule meshes with the repetitive structure of the collagen (X-Y-Gly), thus providing a likely explanation for the occurrence of multiple epitopes. Comparison with human DR binding motifs showed that the I-Aq motif resembles most closely that of the DR4 subtypes which predispose for rheumatoid arthritis.      

Intersensory coordination and the effects of early sensory deprivation

The effect of early visual deprivation on the ability of dark- (DR) and light-reared (LR) rats to learn temporal discriminations involving sounds and lights and to abstract the intersensory correspondence involving duration from initial modality-specific training was examined in this study. While visually inexperienced DR rats were somewhat less successful in acquiring an initial discrimination involving visual events and responding to a rule reversal per se, they were as effective as their visually experienced LR counterparts in demonstrating cross-modal transfer (CMT) to signals in a new modality. The results revealed by the investigation are discussed in terms of the consequences and lack of consequences of the manipulation of early visual experience on the ontogeny of intersensory perceptual development in mammals.
