RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of a clustering infection caused by human adenovirus-B type 7 (HAdV-B7) which occurred in one military camp located at the southeastern coastal region in January 2014.Methods All clinical characteristics of the 70 patients were collected for analysis,including clinical symptoms and signs,chest computer tomography (CT) scans and laboratory results.Throat swabs were collected and real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed to detect viral nucleotide.Results The prominent symptoms of these patients with HAdV-B7 infection included fever (100.0%,70/70),cough (82.9%,58/70),productive cough (72.9%,51/70) and sore throat (61.4%,43/70).All patients showed posterior pharyngeal wall linear congestion with ovoid follicle.Fifty-four (77.1 %) patients had enlarged tonsils and 46 (65.7 %) patients had tonsils covered by white secretions.Fifty-eight (82.9 %) patients had pharyngeal follicular hyperplasia.Fifty-one (72.9 %) patients had abnormalities on chest radiograph,including lung-marking fuzzy,pulmonary interstitial inflammation and parenchymal serous exudation.Of the 54 throat swabs from patients,34(63.0%) were identified as HAdV-B7.All patients were cured.Conclusions The clinical features of patients with HAdV-B7 infection are different from other viral infection.HAdV-B7 is easy to cause clustering infection in particular populations.Early detection and early intervention are needed to avoid exacerbation and transmission.
RESUMEN
A comparison of effectiveness of chemo-immunotherapy (CIT) using LAK/CD3AK 1-2 weeks after TACE in 74 patients with no surgical indication and TACE alone in 41 patients with moderately advanced HCC was carried out. The rates of remission between CIT group and TACE alone group were 72.4% and 40.4%(P
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the efficiency of different interventional mode in treating primary hepatocellular carcinoma with decompensated liver cirrhosis.Methods 132 cases with hepatocellular carcinoma accompanied by decompensational liver cirrhosis were undertaken transcatheter arterial chemo-embolization(TACE,Group A,n=36),segmental transcatheter arterial chemo-embolization(S-TACE,Group B,n=54)and S-TACE + radiofrequency ablation(RFA) + percutaneous ethanol injection(PEI)(multi-interventional therapy,Group C,n=42).Univariate analysis and multivariate COX proportional hazard regression model were used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis.Results All patients of A,B,C groups had been followed up for 3 months to 48 months,with median survival times of 4.1 months,9.4 months(P 50%) demonstrated as 8.3%,31.5%(P
RESUMEN
24 patients with chronic hepatitis B were treated with interleukin-2 activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (IAPBL). 23 patients served as control. The results showed that HBeAg disappeared in 54.2% of IAPBL group, in comparison with 17.4% of the controls (P
