Epidemiological aspects of cytomegalovirus infection in babies aged under one

Sreening data obtained on babies aged under one and selected by random (1,910 children) or target (2,658 children) choice for cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection during the period of 10 years (1992-2001) were compared with mortality rate. The methods used were enzyme immunoassay, immunofluorescence and polymerase chain reaction. The babies were divided as follows: newborn infants (group I), babies aged 1-3 months (group II), 4-6 months (group III) and 7-12 months (group IV). Specific clinical features of CMV infection in newborn infants were studied on 69 cases (37--with CMV monoinfection and 32--with mixed infection). The serological screening revealed a 2.1-fold growth of the infection rate among randomly selected newborn infants during the 10 year period. Positive correlation between the infection rate among children of this age group and the neonatal mortality rate was established. High risk factors of CMV infection were revealed as well as increased infection rate and frequency of clinical cases with the prevailing neurological pathology in group III. Early diagnosis, the exclusion of mixed infections and early adequate therapy were shown to play a decisive role in the outcome of the disease. The algorithm of epidemiological surveillance and the regional program of prophylaxis were worked out.     

宫颈癌患者人乳头瘤病毒感染分布情况及多重感染与临床病理特征的关系

目的:研究宫颈癌患者人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染的分布情况及多重感染与临床病理特征的关系。方法:选择2015年1月-2018年1月期间我院收治的118例宫颈癌患者,根据患者宫颈癌的病变程度分为I期组(n=21)、II期组(n=46)、III期组(n=49)、IV期组(n=2)。所有患者均进行HPV分型检测,比较不同程度的宫颈癌患者的HPV感染情况,分析不同宫颈癌病变程度患者的多重感染和临床病理特征关系。结果:118例患者中有97例患者感染了HPV,感染率为82.20%,且II期组、III期组、IV期组患者HPV感染率高于I期组(P0.05)。II期组、III期组、IV期组患者一重感染率低于I期组,IV期组二重感染率低于I期组,II期组、III期组、IV期组患者多重感染率高于I期组,且IV期组多重感染率高于II期组、III期组(P0.05)。多重感染患者类型有多种,其中尤以HPV16+18+53型最多,占比49.05%,其次是HPV16+18+68型感染,占比32.07%,HPV16+53+58型感染,占比13.21%。年龄在50岁以上、分期为III-IV期、鳞癌、淋巴结转移的患者HPV多重感染率更高(P0.05)。结论:HPV多重感染与宫颈癌病变程度和临床病理特征均有联系,对年龄较大且HPV多重感染的宫颈癌患者进行筛查,预防病情恶化。

The protective role of postvaccinal immunity in mumps in children

The immunological study of children with infectious parotitis (IP) without complications and with such complications as pancreatitis, meningitis or orchitis in the glandular form was carried out. In accordance with the previously proposed principle, 4 types of immune response (IR) were established on the basis of differences in initial resistance and the IR profile: cell-mediated immunity (types I and III) and humoral immunity (types II and IV). The patients included nonvaccinated children, as well as children vaccinated on epidemic indications, 3-6, 7-9, 10 and more years before infection. The comparative analysis of the number of IP cases with and without complications in the groups of children, divided according to their immunization history and the type of IR, revealed that postvaccinal immunity in children vaccinated on epidemic indications (less than a month ago) or 3-6 years before infection had protective potential, sufficient for the prevention of complicated forms of IP. Immunity obtained 7-9 years ago was effective for the protection from IP complications only in cell-mediated, but not humoral IR. Postvaccinal immunity obtained more than 10 years ago did not ensure the decrease in the occurrence of complicated forms of IP (in comparison with that in nonvaccinated patients) in children with any type of IR.     

Application of nested PCR and mass spectrometry for DNA-based virus detection: HBV-DNA detected in the majority of isolated anti-HBc positive sera

DNA preparations from three different groups of serum samples were examined for HBV-DNA via a nested polymerase chain reaction assay (lower detection limit: 10 viral genomes in 100 μl serum): Group I consisted of 11 uninfected control sera, group II consisted of sera obtained from 11 HBV infected patients and group III consisted of 21 isolated anti-HBc positive samples. The 21 samples from group III were HBV-DNA negative according to a conventional non-nested PCR assay and hybridization with a ³²P-labelled probe. Using nested PCR and mass spectrometry, HBV-DNA was detected in none of group I and in all of group II samples. In 11 out of 21 (52%) of the isolated anti-HBc positive sera from group III, HBV-DNA was detected. No correlation was observed between HBV-DNA positivity and anti-HBc titers. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry provided a fast, sensitive and non-radioactive assay for the detection of PCR products without the need for gel electrophoresis or hybridization with labelled probes.     

The relationship between trace elements and cardiac markers in acute coronary syndromes

Previous studies have demonstrated increased serum copper and iron levels and decreased selenium and zinc levels in patients with myocardial infarction. Furthermore, the prognostic value of the levels of trace elements in myocardial infarction has been stressed. We examined serum levels of Cu, Fe, Zn and Se, as well as glutathione peroxidase (GPx), a selenoenzyme with antioxidant properties, and C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) regarding their relationship to cardiac troponins and creatine kinase-MB mass (CK-MBm), important prognostic markers. Serum trace elements, GPx activity and CRP were determined in 70 patients with ACS who were admitted within 12 h after the onset. Differences in these parameters were evaluated in three groups of patients divided according to the levels of cardiac markers: group III consisted of patients with high increases in cTnT, cTnI and CK-MBm (> or =0.9 ng/mL, > or =1.0 ng/mL, > or =30 ng/mL, respectively), patients with milder increases in these markers were included in groups II and I consisted of patients with values just above the upper reference limits. Serum Fe levels increased significantly in group II and even more prominently in group III compared to group I (p = 0.04, 0.002, respectively). There was no significant difference between groups II and III. The increase in serum Cu was significant in group III compared to both groups II and I (p = 0.04, 0.001, respectively). There was no significant difference between groups I and II regarding Cu and Zn. The decrease in serum Se and GPx levels was significant only between groups III and I (p = 0.004 for Se and p = 0.0001 for GPx). CRP levels showed a significant increase in group III compared to groups II and I (p = 0.03 and 0.001). CRP showed a significant positive and GPx a significant negative correlation to the cardiac markers cTnT, cTnI and CK-MBm. Cu was positively correlated to all cardiac markers, while the positive correlation between Fe and cardiac markers was significant only for cTnI. Both Zn and Se were negatively correlated to cTnT, and Se was also to cTnI. In conclusion, the increase in serum levels of Cu and Fe and the decrease in serum levels of Zn and Se in patients with higher levels of troponins and CK-MBm imply that trace element levels are related to the degree of myocardial damage and thus may play a role in the pathogenesis of ischemic heart disease. The strong correlations between cardiac markers and both CRP and GPx suggest that these parameters are promising prognostic factors in acute coronary syndromes.     

Laboratory diagnostics of infections caused by cytomegalovirus and parvovirus B19 in patients with secondary immunodeficiency

To improve the quality of diagnostics and treatment of patients with immunodeficient states, two groups of patients were examined for the presence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, among them 1,348--with clinical manifestations of CMV infection (group 1) and 335 hematological patients (group 2); in addition, 36 patients with secondary immunodeficiency and 31 patients with aplastic and hemolytic anemia, or with anemia of unclear origin were examined for the presence of parvovirusinfection (B19). The results of enzyme immunoassay, polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence tests active CMV infection, confirmed by determination of IgM, low avidity IgG, antigen and DNAemia, was registered in group 2 more often than in group 1. Examinations on the presence of parvovirus infection revealed that in anemia patients with the low level of IgG or its absence IgM was also detected more often than in group 1. In mixed infection caused by CMV and parvovirus B19 the disease took a more severe course than in monoinfection, which was probably due to the parallel action exerted by parvovirus on erythrocyte production in hematopoiesis and by CMV on the monocytic and macrophagal row of cell.     

CMV infections in bone marrow transplanted patients--evaluation of prophylaxis with Cytotect (CMV hyperimmuneglobulin)

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a frequent and clinically important infection following bone marrow transplantation. Candidates for this study were patients admitted for transplantation: 22 patients received bone marrow from a HLA-identical, MCR-nonreactive sibling, in 9 patients an autologous BMT was performed. The anti-CMV IgG (Cytotect) was administered at a dosage of 1 ml/kg on days -7, 13, 33, 53, 73 and 93 after BMT. 5 patients in the very beginning of our BMT program did not receive Cytotect. Patients were given random blood products from the bloodbank not tested for CMV positivity. Active CMV infection or seroconversion in our patients was defined as a rise in IgG titer against the late antigen of fourfold or more or an IgM increase. In the allogeneic BMT group the pretransplant serological status was in 6 cases negative in recipients and donor, in 7 patients positive in recipients and negative in donors, and in 4 patients positive in recipients and donors. Of the 6 patients seronegative in recipients and donors, 3 developed active infection and of the 7 patients pretransplant positive with seronegative donors 3 developed active infection and 4 latent infections during the period from 2 to 100 days following grafting. 1 patient out of the group transplanted in third partial remission of AML developed interstitial pneumonia and died on day +30.4 of the 4 cases with seropositivity of recipients and donors developed active CMV infection. Of 9 patients with autologous transplantation 6 patients were pretransplant seropositive. 3 of these 6 developed active infection and 2 latent infection 30 to 180 days after grafting.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

乌鲁木齐地区乳腺癌与人乳头瘤病毒亚型感染的相关性研究

目的：对本地区乳腺癌患者癌组织进行人乳头瘤病毒（HPv）检测,对HPV亚型与乳腺癌的相关性进行研究。方法：选择本地区2010年1月-2013年1月182例乳腺癌患者作为研究组,同时选择30例乳腺良性肿瘤患者作为对照组,均分型基因芯片检测系统对提取的DNA进行分型检测。观察两组患者HPV感染情况及感染亚型。结果：两组患者HPV阳性病例67例,其中研究组阳性66例,阳性率为36．26％,对照组阳性1例,阳性率为3-33％;研究组阳性率明显高于对照组,两组比较差异具有显著性（P〈0．05）。亚型检测结果显示,共检出7种HPV亚型,其中高危型5种,分别为HPV16、HPV18、HPV58、HPV51和HPV56型,低危型两种,分别为HPV6、11两种。研究组高危型61例,低危型5例,对照组1例为HPV6。Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期、Ⅲ期、Ⅳ期乳腺癌患者HPV阳性率分别为16．28％、19．71％、62％、100％,Ⅲ期、Ⅳ期患者的阳性率明显高于Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期,不同分期阳性率比较差异具有显著性（P〈0．05）。结论：乳腺癌患者癌组织中HPV阳性率明显偏高,且绝大多数为高危亚型,而且HPV阳性率与病理分期呈正相关,说明本地区HPV感染与乳腺癌的发生与发展具有一定的相关性,两者的相关性还有待进一步探索。     

Comparison between human and armadillo Paracoccidioides brasiliensis isolates by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis

Sixty-three Paracoccidioides brasiliensis isolates obtained from three nine-banded armadillos ( Dasypus novemcinctus), one Amazonian armadillo's and 19 clinical isolates were compared by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis with the primer OPG-19. The isolates were divided into three major clusters, I, II and III. Coincidences between human and armadillo isolates were observed in clusters I and II. Cluster III consisted only of armadillos' isolates. The results suggested that (I) humans may acquire P. brasiliensis infection by contact with armadillo's environment, (II) there may be P. brasiliensis genotypes peculiar to the animal, and (III) individual armadillos may be infected with P. brasiliensis cells with different genotypes.

Extreme resistance to cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in transgenic tomato expressing one or two viral coat proteins

For the production of broad commercial resistance to cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) infection, tomato plants were transformed with a combination of two coat protein (CP) genes, representing both subgroups of CMV. The CP genes were cloned from the CMV-D strain and Italian CMV isolates (CMV-22 of subgroup I and CMV-PG of subgroup II) which have been shown to produce severe disease symptoms. Four plant transformation vectors were constructed: pMON18774 and pMON18775 (CMV-D CP), pMON18831 (CMV-PG CP) and pMON18833 (CMV-22 CP and CMV-PG CP). Transformed R0 plants were produced and lines were selected based on the combination of three traits: CMV CP expression at the R0 stage, resistance to CMV (subgroup I and/or II) infection in growth chamber tests in R1 expressing plants, and single transgene copy, based on R1 segregation. The results indicate that all four vector constructs generated plants with extremely high resistant to CMV infection. The single and double gene vector construct produced plants with broad resistance against strains of CMV from both subgroups I and II at high frequency. The engineered resistance is of practical value and will be applied for major Italian tomato varieties.

Biochemical and biophysical properties of flacherie virus of the silkworm

Flacherie virus of the silkworm (FVS) was extracted from diseased silkworms, both larvae and pupae, and purified by 15 to 30% sucrose density gradient centrifugation. FVS III and FVS IV, in addition to the FVS I and FVS II described in the previous paper (Himeno et al., 1974), were found. The FVS I, FVS III, and FVS IV showed the same mobility in 2.4% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and could not be distinguished from each other in the gel. However, the purified FVS II was separated into two bands, FVS IIa and FVS IIb, in 2.4% gel. FVS III was a spherical particle with a diameter of 28 ± 1 nm and showed a sedimentation coefficient of about 90 S. FVS III was easily decomposed into FVS IV which sedimented at about 30 S in sucrose gradient centrifugation. FVS I and FVS II each contained a single molecule of RNA which showed the same molecular weight. FVS I consisted of three polypeptides with molecular weights of 67,000, 50,000, and 33,000. FVS II consisted of 10 polypeptides; among them 2 polypeptides with molecular weights of 50,000 and 33,000 were also found. Labeling experiments with [³²P]orthophosphate revealed that FVS II was found at an early stage of infection and FVS I at a late stage. FVS II was also isolated at an early stage from silkworms infected with FVS II, and FVS I was found at a late stage in these silkworms. The correlation among FVS I, FVS II, FVS III, and FVS IV was discussed and it was suggested that they might be closely related to one another and that few particles in them were immature. It is possible that FVS II changes to FVS I via FVS III by cleavage of large polypeptides.     

Role of noninvasive tests (C-urea breath test and stool antigen test) as additional tools in diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with atrophic body gastritis

BACKGROUND: Detection of Helicobacter pylori infection in atrophic body gastritis (ABG) is difficult, as during progression of body atrophy, H. pylori disappears. AIM: To increase the diagnostic yield of detection of active H. pylori infection in atrophic body gastritis patients by using noninvasive tests such as (13)C-Urea Breath Test ((13)C-UBT) and H. pylori stool antigen test (HpSA) would be useful. PATIENTS: 27 consecutive patients with newly-diagnosed atrophic body gastritis (19F/7M, age 27-73 years). METHODS: Gastroscopy with biopsies (antrum n = 3, body n = 3) and histology according to updated Sydney system, H. pylori IgG serology, (13)C-UBT, and HpSA. RESULTS: All tests used in the diagnosis of H. pylori infection were in agreement in 9/27 atrophic body gastritis patients (33.3%), being all positive in four (14.8%) and all negative in five patients (18.5%). Ten of the 27 (37%) patients were Giemsa stain-positive and serology-positive (group I). Seventeen of the 27 (63%) patients were Giemsa stain-negative: 5/17 with positive serology (group II) and 12/17 with negative serology (group III). In group I, 5/10 (50%) were (13)C-UBT positive and 4/10 (40%) HpSA positive. In group II, two patients were (13)C-UBT positive, but all were HpSA negative. Also in group III, all patients were HpSA negative, but one had a positive (13)C-UBT. CONCLUSIONS: In atrophic body gastritis patients, neither (13)C-UBT nor HpSA per se add useful information regarding active H. pylori infection, but these noninvasive tests may be important in combination with histology and serology to define the H. pylori status in some atrophic body gastritis patients.     

Neutral glycolipids in leukemic and nonleukemic leukocytes

Neutral lipids, free and total cholesterol, glycolipids, and phospholipids were determined in 20 preparations of leukocytes distributed in four groups. Group I consisted of leukocytes from nonleukemic patients; group II, from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia; group III, from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia; and group IV, from patients with acute leukemia. Two neutral glycolipids were found in nonleukemic mixed leukocyte populations. They were identified as glucosylceramide and lactosylceramide. The same glycolipids were also present in leukemic cells, but striking differences in glycolipid composition were found in various types of leukocytes. Glycolipids accounted for 8.9-12.6% of the total lipids in leukocytes from group I, 11.4-20.4% in group II, 1.2-1.6% in group III, and 0.5-4.9% in group IV. Glucosylceramide was the only glycolipid found in seven out of eight analyzed samples of lymphocytes, both normal and leukemic. Lactosylceramide was the major glycolipid in preparations consisting mainly of polymorphonuclear, myeloid, and blastic cells. Only lactosylceramide was found in platelets, where its concentration was about 100 times lower than in mixed leukocyte populations.     

Prevalence of active infection with<Emphasis Type="Italic">Chlamydia pneumoniae</Emphasis> and human cytomegalovirus in patients with type II diabetes mellitus

By promoting the inflammatory process in the arterial wall, Chlamydia pneumoniae (CPN) and human cytomegalovirus (CMV) participate in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Since patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are at high risk of CVD, we studied markers of CMV and CPN infection in DM patients as possible predictors of cardiovascular complications. The seroprevalence rates of CMV in 44 DM patients and matched controls were 74 and 88%, respectively. Compared with controls, patients showed lower titers of IgG against CMV (p < 0.001) and higher titers of genus-specific IgA against CPN (p = 0.006). The titers of genus-specific IgG and prevalence rates of type-specific anti-CPN IgA, IgG or IgM were similar in both DM patients and controls. Serological markers of either active or recent CPN infection were detected in 54% of patients and 59% of controls. However, CPN DNA was not detected in the blood of any DM patient. CMV DNA was found in the blood of 1 (2.3%) patient. The results do not indicate an increased rate of CMV or CPN infection in patients with type II DM.     

The effect of denervation on soft-tissue infection pathophysiology.

Pressure is the sine qua non in the etiology of pressure sores; however, ischemia, denervation, edema, and infection also have been implicated. The role of denervation in tissue infection was studied in an isolated in vivo ovine flap model. Twenty-six adult ewes, divided into three groups, had 29 island pedicle flaps raised on their buttocks. In group I, the cutaneous nerve remained intact, while group II had its nerve divided acutely. Group III had prolonged denervation, where the nerve was divided 7 days before flap elevation. All flaps received intradermal inoculations of 10(7) Staphylococcus aureus. Ninety-six hours later, quantitative bacteriology showed counts of 10(7), 10(7), and 10(9) colony-forming units (CFU) per gram of tissue in groups I, II, and III, respectively. Septic foci were larger in group III, and there was a significant increase in tissue edema between groups I and III. A 25-fold increase in bacterial counts seen in the prolonged denervation group may help explain why neurologically injured patients are more susceptible to infection and pressure ulcerations.     

Prevalence of cytomegalovirus infection and its role in total immunoglobulin pattern in Iranian patients with different subtypes of multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common autoimmune disease characterized by multifocal areas of inflammatory demyelination within the central nervous system. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) has a complex pathobiology and in most cases is simply asymptomatic. There is some recent controversy over the role of CMV in the pathology of MS. The aim of this study was to evaluate active CMV infection and its effect on the humoral immunity in patients with MS. Serum, plasma, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), saliva and urine collected from MS patients (n=78) and healthy subjects (n=123) were screened for the presence of anti-CMV antibodies and CMV-DNA by nephelometric and PCR methods. Concentrations of total antibodies in MS subtypes were measured using both nephelometric and enzyme linked fluorescent assay (ELFA) techniques. The results extend the observation of an increased frequency of CMV-DNA in patients, in contrast with controls (p<0.001). Furthermore, systemic CMV infections were found in 25.5% of patients and only 3.2% of controls (p<0.001). There was significant difference in the titers of anti-CMV IgG and total IgE in patient and controls (P<0.001). These results support the hypothesis that CMV may contribute to MS thought to establish systemic infection process and induce immune response.     

Therapeutic results in acute myelogenous leukemia in the years from 1970 to 1982

In a retrospective study, three groups of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia were analyzed in respect to the outcome of remission induction therapy: group I (vincristine, daunorubicin and prednisone) was treated between 1970 and 1976, group II (daunorubicin and cytosine-arabinoside) between 1976 and 1980 and group III (daunorubicin, cytosine-arabinoside, 6-thioguanine and consolidation therapy with cyclophosphamide, vincristine, cytosine-arabinoside and prednisone) between 1980 and 1982. Complete remissions were achieved in 49% (group I), 46% (group II) and 65% (group III) of the patients (p greater than 0.05, chi-square test). The mortality rate of the remission induction therapy was significantly reduced from 27% in group I to 15% and 13% in group II and III, respectively (p less than 0.05, chi-square test). The median remission duration increased significantly from four months (group I) to nine months (group III) (p less than 0.05, log-rank test). The long term results were about the same in the three groups. After three years, the proportion of patients being still in first remission was less than 10% in group I and II 13% in group III.
