Samples were obtained from healthy blood donors (n= 110), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive donors (n=112), anti-hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV)-positive donors (n=69), patients with type B chronic liver disease (n=81), and patients with type C chronic liver disease (n= 19).TTV DNA was detected using the hemi-nested PCR. HGV RNA was tested using RT-PCR. A history of blood transfusion and serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were also determined.RESULTS: TTV DNA was detected in 8.2 % of healthy blood donors, 16.1% of HBsAg-positive donors, 20.3 % of antiHCV-positive donors, 21.0 % of patients with type B chronic liver disease, and 21.1% of patients with type C chronic liver disease. HGV RNA was detected in 1.8 % of healthy blood donors, 1.8 % of HBsAg-positive donors, 17.4 % of anti-HCV-positive donors, 13.6% of patients with type B chronic liver disease, and 10.5% of patients with type C chronic liver disease. The prevalence of TTV and HGV infections in HBV- or HCV-positive donors and patients was significantly higher than in healthy blood donors (P＜0.05),except for the detection rate of HGV in HBsAg-positive donors which was the same as for healthy donors. There was a history of transfusion in 66.7% of TTV DNA-positive patients and 76.9% of HGV RNA-positive patients (P＜0.05). No significant increase in serum ALT and AST was detected in the TTV- or HGV-positive donors and patients.CONCLUSION: TTV and HGV infections are more frequently found in donors and patients infected with HBV or HCV than in healthy blood donors. However, there is no significant association between TTV or HGV infections and liver injury.展开更多
文摘目的 探讨免疫性血小板输注无效(PTR)患者HLA/HPA抗体特异性分布特征及其对血小板输注效果的影响。方法 本研究以86例免疫性PTR患者为研究对象,收集其性别、年龄、身高、体重、配血次数、疾病类型、输注前后血小板计数等临床资料,通过微珠法进行HLA特异性抗体的检测,并分析抗体特性对血小板输注效果的影响。结果 86例PTR患者中,单独HLA抗体、单独HPA抗体、HLA+HPA抗体阳性的患者分别为72例(83.72%)、8例(9.30%)、6例(6.98%)。HLA抗体在各位点中检出频率最高的抗体对应等位基因分别为A*25:01、B*15:12、C*02:02(和C*17:01),检出率分别为81.48%、87.04%、48.15%;而对应抗原表位出现频率最高的前三位为163LG、97V、71ATD,检出率分别为87.04%、77.78%、74.07%。仅存在HLA抗体的患者,输注交叉配型相合血小板的24 h血小板计数纠正增加指数(CCI)及输注有效情况均明显优于随机血小板(P<0.01)。在血小板交叉配型阴性结果的患者中,HLA抗体强度与交叉配型相合血小板的24 h CCI值及输注有效情况呈负相关关系,强度越高,输注效果越差(P<0.01)。HLA抗体强度为中、低等水平的患者,输注交叉配型相合血小板的24 h CCI值及输注有效情况均优于输注随机血小板(P<0.05)。结论 本研究所得到的PTR患者HLA/HPA抗体特性及其对血小板输注效果影响的结果,可为血小板库建立时供者的选择提供指导,同时对临床PTR患者的治疗方式选择有一定的参考价值。
