BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Renal transplantation is the preferred treatment for renal failure in childhood, but the incidence of graft failure is generally higher than that in adult recipients. A single center was studied to determine if there were any correctable factors that could contribute to graft failure. METHODS: Recipient, donor, and perioperative factors were analyzed using standard statistical tests in 59 pediatric renal transplants performed between 1992 and 1995 using standard cyclosporin-based immunosuppression. RESULTS: Three factors were found to be significantly different between those recipients with good graft function and those who either died or were returned to dialysis. Any history of donor hypotension was a detrimental factor (P < .05, chi(2) test). In addition, those with failed grafts were more likely to have received their grafts from younger donors (P = .025, Mann Whitney U test). A third risk factor was a low postoperative central venous pressure in those whose graft ultimately failed (P = .0012, Mann Whitney U test). CONCLUSIONS: With a pediatric recipient who is stable and has a low priority for a renal graft, small donors, particularly those who have experienced hypotension, should be considered not suitable for transplantation. The chances of a successful graft can be improved by good communication between surgeon, pediatrician, and anesthetist. The importance of maintaining a positive central venous pressure is emphasised. 相似文献

Nuclear absorption spectrometry was used to quantify concentrations of some metals in the liquor from 70 patients with bacterial meningoencephalitis and in different portions of the brain in 10 deceased patients. By calculation of the difference between dry and wet tissue mass after its drying the authors assessed watering of the brain compartments. The correlation analysis demonstrated a relationship between content of metals and later in the brain. Determination of metal (K, Na, Mg, Cu, Zn, Mn) concentrations in the liquor correlating with water content in the brain followed by calculation of the diagnostic coefficients is indicative of the brain edema and swelling degree that helps prognosticate the outcome of the inflammation. 相似文献

We examined the effects of systemic or oral ad libitum monosodium glutamate (MSG) administration on glutamate levels in plasma, and on glutamate release from the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (estimated using brain microdialysis). Systemic MSG administration (0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 g/kg, i.p.) to adult rats caused dose-dependent increases in glutamate levels within arcuate nucleus dialysates. These levels increased during the initial 20 min after systemic MSG administration, and peaked during the second 20-min interval (maximally to 116 +/- 7%, 146 +/- 15%, 790 +/- 191% and 1230 +/- 676% of basal values, respectively). Plasma glutamate levels, measured simultaneously, were increased maximally during the initial 20 min after MSG administration. These increases were 10-, 13-, 76- and 163-fold after doses of 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 g/kg, i.p., respectively. In feeding experiments, consumption of 2.3 g/kg of MSG by previously-trained rats during an 1-h period increased plasma glutamate levels to 352 +/- 61% of basal values 140 min after the start of the feeding period. No changes were observed in glutamate levels of arcuate nucleus dialysates. These findings may explain why ad libitum dietary consumption of MSG apparently lacks neurotoxic potential. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether mucosal permeability is altered during the prodromal stages of alimentary laminitis. ANIMALS: 15 healthy adult ponies. PROCEDURES: intestinal permeability was evaluated for control ponies (n = 5) and for ponies 4 to 12 (n = 5) and 20 to 28 (n = 5) hours after administration of carbohydrate overload. Mucosal permeability was determined by measuring the percentage of orally administered technetium Tc99m diethylenetriaminopentaacetate (99mTc-DTPA) excreted in urine during an 8-hour period, then measuring blood radioactivity at hourly intervals. Plasma endotoxin-like activity was measured by use of a chromogenic Limulus amebocyte assay. RESULTS: Urinary excretion of 99mTc-DTPA was 2.45% of administered dose for control ponies, and was 16.67% of administered dose 4 to 12 hours and 3.57% of administered dose 20 to 28 hours after administration of carbohydrate. CONCLUSIONS: A marked but transient increase in intestinal permeability was observed early in the prodromal stages of alimentary laminitis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Absorption of substances from the intestine may be an initiating event in alimentary laminitis. 相似文献

Interferon beta-1b (IFNbeta-1b) is effective in reducing the frequency of exacerbations in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Recently, a study suggested that treatment with IFNbeta-1b may place MS patients at risk of exacerbations by increasing interferon-gamma (IFNgamma)-secreting cells in the blood early after onset of treatment. We conducted a retrospective study in 192 RRMS patients treated with IFNbeta-1b. We did not observe an increase in the frequency of exacerbations early after the onset of treatment and suggest that the IFNgamma-secreting cell surge linked to the onset of treatment with IFNbeta-1b may not be clinically significant. 相似文献

Mirizzi syndrome is an uncommon cause of obstructive jaundice in which the common hepatic duct is obstructed by stones trapped within the neck of the cystic duct of the gall-bladder. In long standing cases the calculi may erode through into the common duct and may in fact, impact in the resulting fistula. This syndrome with its later progression is a rare complication of calculous disease of the gall-bladder worldwide. While it is perhaps encountered in the developing countries where cholelithiasis is not as prevalent as in the affluent countries, there has not been much documentation. This article reports on a Nigerian patient with a fistulous complication of Mirizzi syndrome (Type II) managed by cholecystectomy and choledochoduodenostomy and also presents a discussion of the condition. 相似文献
