RESUMO
Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of low-dose rabbit anti-human thymocyte globulin (rATG) for induction therapy of kidney transplantation (KT) in children.Methods:From October 2018 to May 2021, clinical data were reviewed retrospectively for 77 pediatric KT recipients on a low-dose rATG induction protocol.Recipient/graft survival rate, renal function recovery, acute rejection (AR) and adverse reactions were observed at 1 year post-operation.The postoperative changes of renal function were examined by Friedman’s test; According to the preoperative baseline data, Pearson’s Chi-square or Fisher's exact test was utilized for examining the influencing factors of postoperative AR.Results:A total of 16(20.78%) recipients had AR within the first 6 months post-operation.The incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) was 14.29%(11/77); The incidence of severe infection post-transplantation 18.18%(14/77), the infection rate of BK virus 25.97%(20/77) and the incidence of neutropenia 32.47%(25/77).The recipient/graft survival rate at 1 year post-operation was 97.40%(75/77) and 94.81%(73/77) respectively.Chi-square test indicated that the incidence of postoperative infection in children with body weight ≤30 kg and height ≤138 cm was 28.95%(11/38) and 27.50%(11/40) respectively, Both were higher than 7.69%(3/39) and 8.11%(3/37) of children with body weight >30 kg and height>138 cm.The difference between groups was statistically significant ( P=0.016 and 0.028). Conclusions:Low-dose rATG is generally excellent in preventing AR in pediatric KT recipients.And the risk of related AR may be lower.The infection rate of recipients with decent preoperative development is low.
RESUMO
Objective To study the stem development and essential oil distribution in different deve- lopment stages of Pogostemon cablin and to provide theoretical information and practical guidance for reasonable harvest and use of this medicinal plant. Methods Paraffin method, semi-thin sectioning, and histochemical method were used. Results Essential oil was not found in the promeristem of stem; in the primary meristem of stem and the early stage of stem's primary structure, the essential oil was mainly distributed in glandular hairs; in the primary structure of stem, the essential oil was mainly distributed in cortex parenchyma cells; in the secondary structure of stem, the essential oil was mainly distributed in remaining cortex parenchyma cell. Conclusion The essential oil is mainly distributed in the stem bark, so the thickness of a stem bark can be used as a standard of selective breeding index.
RESUMO
Objective To study the synthesizing site,transporting mode,and storing position of essential oil in Pogostemon cablin stems and leaves.Methods Ultrathin slicing and histochemical methods were used.Results In parenchyma cells in the stem of P.cablin,dark osmiophilic material was observed in plastids and mitochondria,otherwise,some small gray vesicles were also found in cytoplasm.Some dark osmiophilic droplets were found to adhere to outer membrane of small gray vesicles,and many small gray vesicles with osmiophilic droplets gathered in outer membrane of large vacuole.In leaves,it was different case.Because palisade tissue cells were arranged closely,which had smaller volume and rich chloroplasts,so there was not large vacuole in palisade tissue cells.Plastids,mitochondria,and small vacuole were distributed in high density,but the first two organelles contained more dark osmilphilic substance than latter.Conclusion The plastid is the main synthesis site of essential oil,and the essential oil was mainly transferred by small gray vesicles into large vacuole to store in the stem.In leaves,chloroplast not only has photosynthesis,but also is the main synthesis site of essential oil,and essential oil is permeated into small vacuole to store.
