    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 16 Fälle von teilweise dramatischen Unverträglichkeitsreationen nach Humanalbumininfusionen wurden untersucht. Die Reaktionen manifestierten sich als Fieberanstiege, Schüttelfrost, urticarielle Exantheme und Blutdruckschwankungen bis zum Schock. Sie waren durch Prednisolon günstig zu beeinflussen und klangen nach Absetzen der Humanalbumininfusionen restlos ab. Im zeitlichen Auftreten ließ sich eine Früh- von einer Spätreaktion unterscheiden, wobei die Konzentration des verwendeten Humanalbumins eine Rolle zu spielen schien. Frühreaktionen wurden bevorzugt durch 20%iges, Spätreaktionen immer durch 5%iges Humanalbumin hervorgerufen. Als auslösender Faktor konnten Verunreinigungen der verwendeten Infusionslösungen ausgeschlossen werden. Die Ergebnisse von Intrakutantestungen, Antigeneliminationstechnik, sowie der Nachweis von präzipitierenden Antikörpern gegen Makroaggregate des Albumin-Ultrazentrifugats sprechen dafür, daß eine immunologische Reaktion pathogenetisch von Bedeutung sein könnte. Möglicherweise läßt sich durch Applikation eines desaggregierten Humanalbumins das Risiko von Unverträglichkeitsreaktionen auch bei Gabe großer Humanalbuminmengen an allergisch disponierte Patienten verringern.
    Notes: Summary 16 cases of clinical incompatibility reactions due to human serum albumin (HSA) were recorded. The reactions consisted in increases in body temperature, sometimes together with shivering, urticarial exanthema and blood pressure changes as far as shock. They responded well to prednisolone application and disappeared completely after discontinuing the albumin-therapy. Regarding the onset in time, “early” (1 hour) and “late” (3 days) reactions could be distinguished; early reactions were mostly caused by 20%, late reactions by 5% albumin solutions. Pollutions of the administered HSA-batches could be excluded as an etiologic factor. The results of skin tests, antigen-elimination technique as well as the demonstration of precipitating antibodies directed against the concentrated macroaggregates of the albumin ultracentrifugation sediment suggest a pathogenetic influence of immunological reactions. Ultracentrifugation of the albumin prior to the administration might possibly reduce the risk of incompatibility reactions after high dose application in hyperreactive patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei 127 mit ALG vom Pferd behandelten Patienten wurden die möglichen hämatologischen und klinischen Nebenwirkungen erfaßt, ihre prophylaktische Verhinderung und therapeutische Beherrschung geschildert. Durch Anwendung eines exakten Therapieschemas in Kombination mit Azathioprine und Corticosteroiden nach sorgfältiger Patientenauswahl und versuchter Erzeugung einer immunologischen Toleranz gegen Pferde-IgG, ließen sich Häufigkeit und Intensität von Nebenreaktionen signifikant verringern. Dies wird im Vergleich zweier Patientengruppen gezeigt. Die für die Auslösung der Nebenreaktionen verantwortlichen pathogenen Faktoren werden erörtert. Da prinzipiell unvermeidbare, lebensbedrohende Nebenwirkungen bisher nicht aufgetreten sind, wird die Frage nach der ärztlichen Verantwortbarkeit einer ALG-Therapie bejaht, jedoch sorgfältige klinische, klinisch-chemische und immunologische Überwachung gefordert.
    Notes: Summary In 127 patients treated with horse anti-human lymphocytic globulin (ALG) the possible haematological and clinical side effects, their prevention and treatment were recorded. Frequency and intensity of side reactions can be reduced significantly by the application of a strict therapy schedule in combination with azathioprine and corticosteroids, careful selection of patients and induction of immunological tolerance against horse-IgG. This is shown when comparing the two groups of patients. The pathogenic factors of the side-reactions are discussed. Because principally unavoidable, life-threatening side effects have not been observed, the answer to the question of the ethical justification of ALG therapy is positive. Careful clinical, biochemical and immunological controls are postulated.

    Notes: Abstract Toxic epidermal necrolysis (Lyell's syndrome) with erythematous skin lesions and bulla formation developed in a 4-year-old girl. An accurate diagnosis using the cryostal technique on the top of a bulla was available within 1 h of hospital admission. The course was unusually mild, probably because of early treatment with corticosteroids. Skin prick tests revealed salicylamide as the agent responsible for inducing the disease. The patient was advised to avoid this substance for the rest of her life.

    Notes: A new, standardized, ready-to-apply patch test, the TRUE Test™, has been evaluated on 698 consecutive patients with suspected contact dermatitis. The patients were tested with 12 different allergens. Simultaneously, the same 12 allergens in pet. (Trolab®) were applied symmetrically to the opposite side of the upper back using the conventional Finn Chamber® technique. There were positive test reactions to all 12 allergens lusted in the patient group. The concordance of positive reactions between the TRUE Test™ and the Finn Chamber® test was 67%; 13% of all positive reactions were recorded only for the TRUE Test™ and 20% only for the Finn Chamber® method. The frequency of questionable and irritant reactions was of the same low order of magnitude for both tests methods; such reactions were recorded an around 2% of all test patches.

    Notes: In fourteen patients with food allergy, intragastral provocation under endoscopical control (IPEC) was performed. In all patients positive immediate-type reactions of the gastric mucosa were observed consisting of oedema, erythema and petechial bleeding. Microscopically, mast cell degranulation was observed and measured by mast cell counts using the o-phthaldialdehyde technique. Concomitantly, tissue histamine content in gastric mucosa decreased significantly after allergen provocation, while there was no change in normal volunteers. Plasma histamine concentration increased in most patients; the increases were most evident in four patients showing mild systemic reactions (urticaria and bronchospasm). The technique described might prove to be useful in establishing the diagnosis in doubtful cases of food allergy.

    Notes: We have quantified Langerhans cells (LC) in cryosections of normal human skin and lesional skin from patients with atopic eczema and psoriasis vulgaris using six different methods. The results from the different methods varied considerably and were sometimes contradictory, for example when LC numbers in psoriatic skin were compared with those in normal skin. Thus, in addition to the staining technique used and the selection of the dendritic cell type to be counted, the enumeration method used can also influence the quantitation of LC in normal and pathological skin.

    Notes: Thirty-seven men (36 homosexual or bisexual and one heterosexual) with epidemic Kaposi's sarcoma and underlying HIV infection were followed up over a period of up to 32 months. Fourteen patients (38%) died, with a median survival time of 7.2 months after the diagnosis of AIDS. Seventeen patients (46%) presented with one or more opportunistic infections, mostly Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. Eighteen patients (49%) had lymphadenopathy syndrome according to the definition of the CDC. Using the Laubenstein-classification of Kaposi's sarcoma, all patients either remained stable or deteriorated, improvement was never observed. Absolute T4 lymphocyte counts and the T4/T8 ratio were not related to the disease stage. With the onset of B symptoms (systemic symptoms), however, the absolute T4 numbers and the T4/T8 ratio markedly decreased. Delayed type hypersensitivity also showed no relationship to the clinical stages of Kaposi's sarcoma. Thus, the clinical progression of Kaposi's sarcoma lesions seems to be largely independent of the immunological parameters investigated. However, the onset of B symptoms was observed to be related to changes in immune status.

    Notes: Apparently normal, and lesional skin from patients with atopic eczema were investigated immunohistochemically with anti-HLA-DR, -CD1a and -IgE antisera. A CD1a + intercellular pattern was observed in uninvolved skin in the majority of the patients whereas an HLA-DR +/CD1a+ network, mostly localized in basal and supra-basal areas, was shown in lesional skin of virtually all of them. Moreover, an HLA-DR +/CD1a + IgE + intercellular pattern was observed in some of the patients only and was predominantly localized in those areas characterized by lymphocyte exocytosis, spongiosis or vesicle formation. Whether keratinocytes are able to synthesize CD1a antigen and FcɛR or if these molecules are only produced and shed by CD1a +/IgE + epidermal dendritic cells remains unclear.
