Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome Associated with Acute Pancreatitis

Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is a systemic infectious disease caused by Hantaviruses and characterized by fevers, bleeding tendencies, gastrointestinal symptoms and renal failure. It encompasses a broad spectrum of clinical presentations, ranging from unapparent or mild illnesses to fulminant hemorrhagic processes. Among the various complications of HFRS, acute pancreatitis is a rare find. In this report, based on clinical data, laboratory and radiologic examination findings, we describe a clinical case, with HFRS from Dobrava virus, associated with acute pancreatitis. The patient was successfully treated by supportive management. Clinicians should be alert to the possibility of HFRS when examining patients with epidemiological data and symptoms of acute pancreatitis.

DETERMINATION OF URINE TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR, IL-6, IL-8 AND SERUM IL-6 IN PATIENTS WITH HEMORRHAGIC FEVERS WITH RENAL SYNDROME

Objective To explore the roles of cytokines in the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome(HFRS). Methods Double-antibody sandwich ELISA was used to determine serum interleukin (IL)-6, urine tumor necrosis factor (TNF), IL-6 and IL-8 levels in 56 patients with HFRS. Results Serum IL-6, urine TNF, IL-6 and IL-8 concentrations in HFRS patients were significantly higher than those in control group, respectively (P<0.001). The concentrations increased at fever stage, then continued to increase during hypotension stage and peaked at oliguria stage. The concentrations of serum IL-6, urine TNF, IL-6 and IL-8 increased in accord with the severity of the disease and differed greatly among different types of the disease. Serum IL-6 had remarkable relationships with serum specific antibodies. It was positively related to serum β_2-microglobulin (β_2-MG), blood ureanitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr). Significant positive relationships were also found both between urine IL-6 and TNF, and between IL-6 and IL-8 (r=0.5768, P<0.05; r=0.3760, P<0.01). Conclusion TNF, IL-6 and IL-8 activated during the course of the disease. IL-6 is associated with the immunopathological lesions caused by the hyperfunction of humoral immune response. IL-6, IL-8 and TNF are involved in the renal immune impairment. Determining them might, in certain extent, be used in predicting the prognosis and outcome of patients with HFRS.

Study on the Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes Clone Specific for the Nucleocapsid Protein of Hantaan Virus from Peripheral Blood in Patients with Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome

In order to elucidate the molecular and immunological mechanisms as well as the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), the CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) clone was established directly from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of patients with HFRS. The activities of CTL were detected as usual with EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cell line (BLCL) as target cells. The results showed that the CTL clone could recognized and killed the target cells with specificity of nucleocapsid protein of Hantaan virus (HTNVNP) with the cytotoxicity percentages of 50.2%, 25.4% and 39.0% respectively. These results demonstrated that the antigenic epitopes of HTNVNP mainly located on the C-terminal of the viral nucleocapsid protein.

Detection of Hantavirus gene from peripheral blood of patients with HFRS in Heilongjiang province and the epidemiological significance

The aim of this study is to further understand the genotype of Hantavirus(HV) from peripheral blood of patients with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and the epidemiological significance of this disease in Heilongjiang province in recent years. Thirty-one serum samples of clinically diagnosed patients with HFRS were examined by RT-PCR to decide the genetic subtype. On the basis of infection season, the serum samples were divided into two groups: winter (Nov, 2003—Feb, 2004) , spring and summer (April, 2004—Sep, 2004). Further analysis was performed in combination with clinical symptoms. It was found that among the total 31 samples, 22 were sero-positive. Among 14 serum samples in winter, 8 were sero-positive, of which 5 cases were of typeⅠ(Hantaan virus, HTNV) and 3 of typeⅡ(Seoul virus, SEOV). Among 17 samples in spring and summer, 14 were sero-positive, of which 5 cases were of typeⅠand 9 of typeⅡ. So it concludes that both of the two types of Hantavinis exist in Heilongjiang. The typeⅠis the main pathogen of HFRS in winter, and typeⅡis the main in spring and summer.

STUDY ON AEROSOL TRANSMISSION ROUTES OF HEMORRHAGIC FEVER WITH RENAL SYNDROME (HFRS)

The present paper reviews our studies on transmission routes and prophylactic measures of Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), including aerosol inhalation, skin injury/mucosa, insect vectors, peroral infection and vertical transmission. The results show that HFRS is transmitted by Hantaan virus via multi-routes. One of them, the aerosol transmission, is perhaps the main route transmitting HFRS from mouse to human beings. The injury and mu-cosa is the main transmission route from mouse to mouse and also an important agent from mouse to human beings. The peroral infection may occur in very serious pollution of foods. The insect vectors may play an important role in the focus of HFRS and in the transmission of HFRS from mouse to human. The epidemiological significance of vertical transmission is yet uncertain. According to the results, four proposals should be emphasized including killing insects and mice, long lasting and combined prophylactics, intensive studies on prophylactic measures on viral aerosols and the blocking of transmission of HFRS from mouse to human via aerosols.

Lack of association between integrin αvβ3 gene polymorphisms and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in Han Chinese from Hubei, China

Hantaviruses belong to the family Bunyaviridae and cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome(HFRS) in humans. β_3 integrins, including α_Vβ_3 and α_(Ⅱb)β_3 integrins, act as receptors on endothelial cells and play key roles in cellular entry during the pathogenesis of hantaviruses. Previous study demonstrated that the polymorphisms of integrin α_(Ⅱb)β_3are associated with susceptibility to hantavirus infection and the disease severity of HFRS in Shaanxi Province of China, rather than in Finland. However, the polymorphisms of integrin α_vβ_3 in patients with HFRS was incompletely understood. Here, we aimed to investigate the associations between polymorphisms in human integrin α_vβ_3 and HFRS in Han Chinese individuals. Ninety patients with HFRS and 101 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Analysis of five single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) sites(rs3768777 and rs3738919 on ITGAV; rs13306487, rs5921, and rs5918 on ITGB3) was performed by Taq Man SNP genotyping assays and bi-directional PCR allele-specific amplification method. No significant differences were observed between the HFRS group and controls regarding the genotype and allele frequency distributions of any of the five SNP sites, and no associations were found between ITGAV polymorphisms/genotypes and disease severity. In conclusion, our results implied that these five SNPs in the integrin α_vβ_3 gene were not associated with HFRS susceptibility or severity in Han Chinese individuals in Hubei Province.

基于ARIMA模型分析西安市鄠邑区HFRS疫情

目的基于时间序列分析的求和自回归移动平均(autoregressive integrated moving average,ARIMA)模型分析肾综合征出血热(hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome,HFRS)疫苗接种情况对陕西省西安市鄠邑区HFRS疫情的影响。方法收集陕西省西安市鄠邑区1971-01~2012-12各监测点HFRS病例监测数据,建立基础数据库,将数据依据疫苗接种情况进行分组,对HFRS月发病率进行ARIMA建模拟合及预测,通过模型评价分析HFRS疫苗接种对疫情的影响。结果 1971-2012年,陕西省西安市鄠邑区共报告人间HFRS患者12 702例,HFRS年发病率在1971-1990年间呈增长趋势,从1994年开始年发病率总体呈现波动降低趋势,且疾病发生存在明显的季节性和双峰特征,模型分析显示忽略疫苗接种情况利用整体发病数据构建的模型,其拟合优度明显差于利用接种疫苗前发病数据而构建的模型,其预测方差也劣于利用接种疫苗后发病数据而建立的模型。结论自1994年鄠邑区开始接种HFRS疫苗后,HFRS疫情得到一定控制,且基于疫苗接种分组数据建立的模型能更好地体现这一干预措施对HFRS疫情的影响。
