In order to observe the curative effect and general reaction of locally used adriamycin (ADM)-loaded chitosan drug delivery system on giant cell tumor of bone after curettage. The cavities of 4 cases of giant cell tumor after curettage were filled with ADM-loaded chitosan drug delivery system with 4 times the dosage usually used for intravenous application. After operation, the concentration of ADM in plasma on the 1st, 2nd and 5th day, and the functions of liver and kidney on the 1st week, 1st month and 6th month were all investigated. The results were that the concentration of ADM in plasma was (143.05 +/- 27.55) ng/ml, (52.17 +/- 11.28) ng/ml and (4.25 +/- 3.07) ng/ml respectively, and the functions of liver and kidney were all normal in 6 months. After a follow-up of 7-19 months, no local or general reactions were observed and X-ray showed no recurrence. Therefore, it was concluded that the locally used ADM-loaded chitosan delivery system was safe and effective in treatment of giant cell tumor of bone after curettage.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of reduced-dose intravitreal ganciclovir for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR).MethodsA prospective observational cohort study observed 15 AIDS patients (28 eyes) who suffered from CMVR onset between January 2016 and December 2018 at Nanning Aier Eye Hospital. Among this 28 eyes, BCVA of 6 eyes (21.4%) were between moving hand to counting finger, 15 eyes (53.6%) were between 0.02 to 0.1 and 7 eyes were better than 0.1 (25.0%). All eyes received intravitreal injection 0.1 ml of ganciclovir at 4 mg/ml (contain ganciclovir 0.4 mg). The induction regimen was twice weekly for 2 weeks and a maintenance period of the same dose weekly. The mean number of injections was 7.1±1.7 times. For hospitalized patients who had no contraindicated received a 14-day twice daily intravenous ganciclovir (IVG) 5.0 mg/kg·d until complete resolution of CMVR. All patients were divided into intravitreal ganciclovir (IVTG) group and IVTG+IVG group according to different treatment plans, which were 5 cases with 8 eyes and 10 cases with 20 eyes, respectively. The follow-up was more than 6 months. BCVA, complete resolution or stable of the lesion and complications were observed.ResultsSix months later, 20 eyes (71.4%) had a obvious reduced or disappeared of the anterior chamber and vitreous inflammation, and the retinal lesions became stable or complete resolution. 24 eyes showed improvements of BCVA and 4 eyes showed stable. 2 eyes (7.1%) presented with BCVA ≤ counting finger, 7 eyes (25.0%) were 0.02 - 0.1 and 19 eyes were ≥ 0.1 (67.9%). Compared with before treatment, the ratio of BCVA that less than or equal to counting finger and between 0.02 to 0.1 decreased (21.4% vs 7.1% and 53.6% vs 25.0%, respectively), but the ratio of BCVA better than 0.1 increased (25.0% vs 67.9%). When IVTG+IVG group was compared with IVTG group, the average time-to-resolution of CMVR were 83.2±25.2 and 85.3±24.4 days respectively. There was no significant difference in resolution times (Z=0.17, P=0.87). The ratio of retinal lesions became stable or complete resolution were 75.0% (15 eyes) and 62.5% (5 eyes), there was no evident difference in time-to-resolution between the two groups (F=0.42, P=0.51). No recurrence was seen during the follow-up period. In cases of unilateral CMVR, there were no patients with a second eye involvement during the follow-up period. No endophthalmitis, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal detachment were found in our study.ConclusionReduced-dose intravitreal ganciclovir is a safe and effective treatment option for CMVR.

ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical features of cytomegalovirus infection after severe pneumonia in immunocompetent subjects. MethodsTwo cases of cytomegalovirus infection after severe pneumonia in immunocompetent subjects were reported and the literatures were reviewed. ResultsTwo elderly patients were admitted to our Respiratory Intensive Care Unit for severe pneumonia and typeⅠrespiratory failure. After treatment of invasive mechanical ventilation, broad-spectrum antibiotics and steroids, their body temperature became normal with improvement of oxygenation and lung infiltrates on chest radiograph. After extubation, their oxygenation deteriorated, with extensive lung infiltrates on chest X ray. Coincidently, their blood cytomegalovirus DNA became positive and then they were treated with parenteral ganciclovir for more than 2 weeks. After that, their oxygenation and chest radiograph returned to normal. Combined with the results of the related literature, invasive mechanical ventilation and use of corticosteroids could be the risk factors of immunocompetent subjects to develop cytomegalovirus infection after severe pneumonia. The clinical characteristics include deterioration of oxygenation and extensive lung infiltrates without positive pathogenic findings of bacteria and fungi. Quantitive nucleic acid amplification tests for blood cytomegalovirus DNA, cytomegalovirus pp65 antigenemia test and histology/immunohistochemistry are recommended diagnostic tools. Valganciclovir or intravenous ganciclovir are recommended as first-line treatment for at least 2 weeks. ConclusionsCytomegalovirus infection occurs frequently in immunocompe-tent subjects with critical illness. Cytomegalovirus pneumonia should especially be considered in patients with severe pneumonia, receiving mechanical ventilation and steroids. Early diagnosis and treatment may help improve the prognosis of these patients.
ObjectiveTo observe the safety and efficacy of regime that based on aqueous cytomegalovirus-DNA (CMV-DNA) load and IL-8 determination for therapeutic monitoring and local treatment cessation of cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).MethodsA prospective case series study. A total of 14 CMVR patients (22 eyes) after allogeneic HSCT diagnosed in Ophthalmology Department of Peking University People's Hospital between January 2016 and December 2018 were involved in this study. All patients were CMV-DNA seronegative at baseline and were treated with intravitreous injection of ganciclovir (IVG, 3 mg in 0.05 ml) twice per week for 4 times in the induction stage and once a week in the maintenance stage. Aqueous humor sample was collected during the first time of IVG every week. CMV-DNA and the level of IL-8 were measured by real time quantitative PCR and ELISA, respectively. During follow-up, negative CMV-DNA (＜103/ml) or level of IL-8＜30 pg/ml in aqueous sample was set as local treatment cessation. Then patients were followed every 2 weeks for at least 6 months. BCVA, intraocular pressure and fundus examination were taken for each visit. The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity. BCVA and intraocular pressure at the baseline and the last follow-up were compared by the Student t matching test.ResultsOf the 14 CMVR patients (22 eyes) after allogeneic HSCT, 8 patients (16 eyes) were bilateral, 6 patients (6 eyes) were unilateral. At the baseline, the mean logMAR BCVA was 0.814±0.563, the intraocular pressure was 17.2±7.8 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), the mean aqueous CMV-DNA load was (3.43±4.96)×105/ml, the mean level of IL-8 was 518±541 pg/ml. At cessation of local treatment, the median number of intravitreal injections was 5 times. Nine eyes showed negative CMV-DNA in aqueous humor, of which, 7 eyes showed negative IL-8 in aqueous. CMV-DNA could still be detected in 13 eyes, while IL-8 was negative. Only one eye’s retinal lesion was completely quiet. Six months after local treatment cessation, the mean logMAR BCVA was 0.812±0.691, the intraocular pressure was 14.8±5.4 mmHg; which was not significantly different from baseline (t=-0.107, 1.517; P=0.916, 0.137). Recurrence of CMVR happened in only 1 eye because of systemic EB virus infection. Retinal lesions progressively improved and became completely quiet in all the remaining 20 eyes. In 22 eyes, iatrogenic vitreous hemorrhage occurred due to low platelet count during treatment (＜30×109/ml) in 4 eyes. When the treatment was terminated for 6 months, the fundus of hematoma absorption was clearly visible. At the time of CMVR diagnosis, there were 2 eyes (9%) with posterior subcapsular opacity, which may be caused by systemic glucocorticoid therapy after allogeneic HSCT.ConclusionAqueous CMV-DNA load and level of IL-8 could be used as quantitative variables for monitoring the therapeutic effect and determining time for local treatment cessation for CMVR after HSCT safely and efficiently.
