Organ tolerance following cadaveric liver transplantation for chronic graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.

A paediatric patient was treated with orthotopic liver transplantation after he developed cirrhosis of the liver due to chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. His pre-existing chronic GVHD of the skin disappeared and immunosuppressive therapy could be gradually tapered and finally withdrawn 71 months after liver transplantation. Two and a half years after discontinuation of all immunosuppressive therapy, the patient is in excellent condition with neither signs of chronic GVHD nor rejection of the liver graft.

Hepatitis profile interpretation by microcomputer.

A simple BASIC computer program for interpreting two serologic markers of hepatitis A virus infection and five serologic markers of hepatitis B virus infection is described. The program is based on a two-dimensional matrix (table) containing all possible combinations of positive and negative test results with their associated interpretations. Clinically relevant reports are consistent, reliable, and legible. Sample reports are included.

Sequential CK and LD isoenzyme interpretation by microcomputer.

A microcomputer program for rapidly interpreting and reporting sequential creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes written in BASIC is described. The program uses a combination of algorithmic logic and matrix-searching functions, correlates abnormalities from up to three patient samples, and arrives at a pattern diagnosis. Program execution is simple and has proved reliable in 1,000 samples from a large university hospital and a medium-sized community hospital.
