Methods We treated 5 refractory BAL patients by CAG regimen （10 mg.m 2 cytosine arabinoside subcutaneously administrated every 12 hours, day 1-14; 5-7 mg·m^-2 aclarubicin intravenously administrated daily, day 1-8; and concurrently used 200 μg·m^-2·d^-1 granulocyte colony-stimulating factor subcutaneously） from November 2002 to April 2007. The efficacy of the regimen was evaluated by response rate, and the side effects were also measured. Results The complete remission rate was 80%, median duration of absolute neutrophil count〈5.0×10^8/L and platelet count〈2.0×10^10/L was day 13 and day 1, respectively; and the infection rate was low （Ⅲ-Ⅳ infection rate, 20.00%）.展开更多

The major cause of thisdisease is psychological or physical stress, and it has various clinical presentations. In this article, we present a TC case caused by laparoscopic oophorocystectomy.展开更多

Methods AECAs in sera of 39 CTD patients with PAH,22 CTD patients without PAH,and 10 healthy donors as controls were detected with Western blotting. The prevalence of different AECAs in different groups was compared and its correlation with clinical manifestations was also investigated. Results The prevalence of AECAs was 82.1% in CTD patients with PAH,72.7% in CTD patients without PAH,and 20.0% in healthy donors. Anti-22 kD AECA was only detected in CTD patients with PAH (15.4%). Anti-75 kD AECA was more frequently detected in CTD patients with PAH than in those without PAH (51.3% vs. 22.7%,P<0.05). In CTD patients with PAH,anti-75 kD AECA was more frequently detected in those with Raynaud’s phenomenon or with positive anti-RNP antibody. Conclusion AECAs could be frequently detected in CTD patients with or without PAH,while anti-22 kD and anti-75 kD AECA might be specific in CTD patients with PAH.展开更多
