At one year, eG FR was not significantly different between groups(median 59 mL /min in DSA-Cw group, compared to median 51 mL /min in DSA-A-B group, P = 0.192). Moreover, kidney graft survival was similar between groups at 5-years(100% in DSA-Cw group vs 91% in DSA-A-B group, P = 0.528). The sole independent predictor of antibody mediated rejection(AMR) incidence was DSA strength(HR = 1.07 per 1000 increase in MFI, P = 0.034). AMR was associated with shortened graft survival at 5-years, with 75% and 100% grafts surviving in patients with or without AMR, respectively(Log-rank P = 0.005).CONCLUSION Our data indicate that DSA-Cw are associated with an identical risk of AMR and impact on graft function in comparison with "classical" class I DSA.展开更多

METHODS: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and G (IgG) type anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA), IgA type anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies (anti-tTG) with antigen of guinea pig and human source were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and endomysium antibodies (EHA) by indirect immunofiuoresence test. HLA-DQA1*0501/DQB1*0201 (DQ2) was revealed by polymerase chain reaction. Celiac disease was diagnosed by revised ESPGHAN criteria. RESULTS: 41% of DS patients had AGA, 6.0% IgA anti-tTG with guinea pig antigen, and 3.0 % [gA EMA (all positive for anti-tTG with human tTG). Subtotal villous atrophy was found in 5 out of 9 DS patients who had agreed to small bowel biopsy. One of them had DQA1*0S01/DQB1*0201 and anti-tTG and EMA i.e. typical for CD markers (this case also fulfilled the ESPGHAN diagnostic criteria), but other four lacked these markers. Three non-biopsied DS patients had also most probably CD because DQA1*0S01/DQB1*0201 and IgA anti-tTG (EMA) were detected. Thus, the prevalence of CD among our DS patients population is 3.0 % (95 % of confidence interval [CI]: 0.1-5.9 %). CONCLUSION: We confirm the increased frequency of CD among DS patients. In addition, we have revealed a subgroup of patients with subtotal villous atrophy but without characteristic for CD immunological and genetic markers. Whether these cases represent CD (with atypical immunopathogenesis) or some other immune enteropathy, requires further investigations.展开更多

METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected from 56 UC patients (34 males and 22 females, aged 43.5 years, range 21-66 years), including 36 at active stage and 20 at remission stage, and 25 sex-and age-matched controls. The level of aβ2GP Ⅰ was measured by ELISA. The platelet activation markers, platelet activation complex- Ⅰ (PAC- Ⅰ ) and P-selectin (CD62P) were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The A value for IgG aβ2GP Ⅰ in the active UC group was 0.61 ± 0.13, significantly higher than that in the remittent UC and control groups (0.50 ± 0.13 and 0.22 ± 0.14, P 〈 0.01). There was a significant difference between the two groups (P 〈 0.01). The A value for IgM aβ2GP Ⅰ in the active and remittent UC groups was 0.43 ± 0.13 and 0.38 ± 0.12, significantly higher than that in the control group (0.20 ± 0.12, P 〈 0.01). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P 〉 0.05). The PAC- Ⅰ positive rate for the active and remittent UC groups was 30.6% ± 7.6% and 19.6% ± 7.8% respectively, significantly higher than that for the control group (6.3% ± 1.7%,P 〈 0.01). There was a significant difference between the two groups (P 〈 0.01). The CD62P positive rate for the active and remittent UC groups was 45.0% ± 8.8% and 31.9% ± 7.8% respectively, significantly higher than that for the control group (9.2% ± 2.7%, P 〈 0.01). There was a significant difference between the two groups (P 〈 0.01). In the active UC group, the more severe the state of illness was, the higher the A value for IgG aβ2GP Ⅰ was, and the positive rate for PAC-Ⅰ and CD62P was positively correlated with the state of illness (Faβ2GP Ⅰ = 3.679, P 〈 0.05; FPAC-Ⅰ (%) = 5.346, P 〈 0.01; and FCD62P (%) = 5. 418, P 〈 0.01). Meanwhile, in the same state of illness, the A value for IgG aβ2GP Ⅰ was positively correlated to the positive rates for PAC-Ⅰ and CD62P. CONCLUSION: aβ2GP Ⅰ level, platelet activation state and their relationship of them are closely correlated with the pathogenesis and development of UC.展开更多

文摘目的分析血液病患者HLAⅠ类抗体微珠反应的平均荧光强度(MFI)与血小板输注疗效的关系。方法回顾性分析2021年1月至2022年10月中国科学技术大学附属第一医院(安徽省立医院)收治的68例血液病患者的临床资料,及血小板输注前HLAⅠ类抗体MFI情况。依据血小板输注后24 h血小板计数增高指数(CCI)判定血小板输注疗效,并将患者分为有效组和无效组,logistic多因素回归模型分析血小板输注效果的影响因素,绘制受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线并计算曲线下面积(AUC)。根据AUC计算约登指数和其最大值,采用ROC曲线分析HLAⅠ类抗体对血小板输注无效(PTR)的预测作用。结果68例患者HLA抗体检测后输注血小板128次,其中有效输注98次,输注有效率76.56%,血小板无效输注30次,PTR发生率23.44%。单因素分析显示有效组和无效组在性别构成、HLAⅠ类抗体阳性占比、HLAⅡ类抗体阳性占比输注前后差值比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);多因素分析显示HLAⅠ类抗体阳性为PTR危险因素(OR=9.64,95%CI:2.73~34.08,P<0.001);Pearson相关性检验得出HLAⅠ类抗体MFI与24 h CCI呈负相关(r=-0.369,P<0.01);根据所建立的预测模型绘制ROC曲线,曲线下面积为0.759(95%CI:0.619~0.898)。通过AUC计算约登指数最大值并得出最大截断值为MFI=531.6,灵敏度为75.00%,特异度为81.25%。结论HLAⅠ类抗体MFI作为预测血小板输注疗效的重要指标,可为临床选择合适血小板输注提供参考。
