Introduction: Infl uenza vaccination is recommended for all solid organ transplant recipients. However, some centers are reluctant to give annual vaccination due to concerns about precipitating rejection. A proposed mechanism of this is vaccineinduced development of cellular and humoral responses to donor HLA antigens. We studied the induction of HLA Ab in a cohort of lung transplant recipients receiving infl uenza vaccination. Methods: Adult lung transplant recipients were immunized with 0.5 mL intramuscular seasonal infl uenza vaccine followed by 0.1 mL intradermal booster at 4 weeks as part of a previous study. Sera were collected pre-vaccination and at 4, 8 weeks post-vaccination. Post-vaccination sera were analyzed for HLA Ab using fl owPRA specifi c beads (One Lambda Inc). A positive result was defi ned as 5%. Positive samples were further analyzed for antibody specifi city by single antigen bead testing. Pre-vaccination sera were tested only only if post-vaccination sample screen was positive for HLA Ab. The presence of HLA Ab was correlated to vaccine seroresponse and rejection episodes. Results: Sixty patients were included with equal numbers of men and women. Mean age of patients was 47.3 years (range 20.7-72.4). Median time post-transplant was 1.3 years (range 85 days - 17 years). One patient was excluded due to an uninterpretable baseline screen result. 16/59 (27.1%) patients were positive for HLA Ab both in both pre- and post-vaccination samples. Of these, 12/16 (75%) had antibody against HLA Class I (majority A30,A31,B27,B44), 2/16 (12.5%) had antibody against HLA class II (majority DQ4, DQ7), and 2/16 (12.5%) had antibody against both Class I & II. There was no signifi cant increase in existing HLA Ab post-vaccination. Of the 16 patients, only one (6.3%) patient had de novo HLA Ab and this was determined to be non donor specifi c. Factors such as gender, time from transplant, immunosuppression, and acute rejection episodes did not correlate with presence of HLA Ab. HLA Ab was not associated with seroconversion to to vaccine antigens. Conclusions: Our data support that receiving the annual infl uenza vaccine does not lead to the generation of de novo donor specifi c antibodies in lung transplant recipients or upregulation of existing HLA Ab.

Design aspects of the Transversally Laminated Anisotropic (TLA) Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SynRM) are studied and the machine performance analysis compared to the Induction Motor (IM) is done. The SynRM rotor structure is designed and manufactured for a30 kW, four-pole, three-phase squirrel cage induction motor stator. Both the IMand SynRM were supplied by a sensorless Direct Torque Controlled (DTC) variablespeed drive. Attention is also paid to the estimation of the power range where the SynRM may compete successfully with a same size induction motor. A technicalloss reduction comparison between the IM and SynRM in variable speed drives is done. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is used to analyse the number, location and width of flux barriers used in a multiple segment rotor. It is sought for a high saliency ratio and a high torque of the motor. It is given a comparison between different FEM calculations to analyse SynRM performance. The possibility to take into account the effect of iron losses with FEM is studied. Comparison between the calculated and measured values shows that the design methods are reliable. A new application of the IEEE 112 measurement method is developed and used especially for determination of stray load losses in laboratory measurements. The study shows that, with some special measures, the efficiency of the TLA SynRM is equivalent to that of a high efficiency IM. The power factor of the SynRM at rated load is smaller than that of the IM. However, at lower partial load this difference decreases and this, probably, brings that the SynRM gets a better power factor in comparison with the IM. The big rotor inductance ratio of the SynRM allows a good estimating of the rotor position. This appears to be very advantageous for the designing of the rotor position sensor-less motor drive. In using the FEM designed multi-layer transversally laminated rotor with damper windings it is possible to design a directly network driven motor without degrading the motorefficiency or power factor compared to the performance of the IM.
