Objective To investigate the clinical-pathological features, treatment and prognosis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in patients with lupus nephritis (LN). Methods A retrospective ana-lysis was carried out based on the clinical-pathological data for the treatment and prognosis of eight patients with LN related TIP. All patients had thrombocytopenia and hemolytic anemia, neurological symptoms and renal dysfunction. Six patients had fever. Results All 8 patients had sudden-onset of rapid progressive glomeurlonephritis (RPGN), one patient with continuous gross hematuria, the pathological features of these patients revealed TMA lesions. Immune suppressive therapy was initiated and blood purification therapy were applied in seven patients. Three cases had plasmapheresis and (or) immunoabsorption. One case was lost during follow-up, the other seven patients were followed with period at one year. One patient died, three patients went into peritoneal dialysis in which one of them was changed to hemodialysis finally. The other three patients had stable renal function. Conclusion The LN patients with TTP had severe clinical-patho-logical changes, rapid progressive and poor outcome, so we should diagnose and treat these patients as early as possible.

Objective Membranous nephropathy ( MN) is rarely complicated by crescents.This study was to observe the clinicopathologic characteristics of MN with crescents. Methods This retrospective study included 53 cases of biopsy-proven idiopathic MN with crescents in the absence of immunologic and clinical etiologic factors and another 100 MN patients without histological crescents as controls.The clinicopathologic features, treatment response, and out-comes were analyzed and compared between the two groups of pa-tients. Results Significantly higher percentages of hypertension and decreased eGFR were observed in the MN +crescents group than in the control (47.2%vs 19.0%, P<0.05;28.3%vs 40.%, P<0.05).Circulating autoantibodies against the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) were found in 66.7%(30/45) of the patients.The glomeruli exhibited a median of 4.6%(1.8%-35.3%) involvement of crescents.Compared with the controls, the MN +crescents group showed remarkably higher rates of segmental glomer-ulosclerosis lesions (16.0%vs 49.1%, P<0.05), capillary loops necrosis (0.0%vs 11.3%, P<0.05), interstitial fibrosis/tubu-lar atrophy (IFTA) (54.0%vs 86.8%, P<0.05) and afferent arterial lesions (65.0%vs 92.5%, P<0.05).No significant differ-ences were found in the outcomes of the two groups of patients. Conclusion MN with crescents is rare, and secondary MN and cres-centic glomerulonephritis should be considered.Crescentic MN usually presents with hypertension and renal dysfunction clinically and high rates of severe segmental and global glomerulosclerosis, capillary loops necrosis, and IFTA histologically.The condition has a fa-vorable short-term prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of Mena protein expression with the invasion and metastasis of Mena SNPs with genetic susceptibility in gastric cancers (GC). Methods:A tissue microarray that simulates the invasion and metastasis process of GC was created, and immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of Mena protein. The Mena gene 5 SNP loci geno-types of 188 healthy people and 389 GC patients were assayed using PCR-based LDR analysis. Results:The expression of Mena pro-tein in GC was significantly upregulated and greatly increased in the intestinal-type and mixed-type GC than that in the diffuse-type and was negatively related to the invasion and metastasis of GC. Patients with Mena overexpression had better prognosis. The frequen-cies of the A and G alleles, as well as the AA, AG, and GG genotypes, at the Mena SNP rs3795443 locus were significantly different be-tween patients with gastric carcinoma and the control groups (OR=2.1489,95%CI 1.4607~3.1613, P<0.01). The frequencies of these five Mena gene SNP loci were not significantly related with the survival of patients with gastric carcinoma. Conclusion:The upregula-tion of Mena expression is involved in maintaining the histological phenotype, invasion, metastasis, and prognosis of gastric adenocarci-noma. Individuals with GG and AG genotypes at the Mena rs3795443 locus have increased risk of gastric carcinoma, which suggests that screening for this genotype would be helpful in assessing the genetic susceptibility of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To summarize the main nursing points of toxic epidermal necrolysis. Methods On the foundation of conventional therapy, an overall assessment was carried out among 10 patients with toxic epidermal necrolysis. On loose skin with erythema, a combination of zinc oxide and talcum powder was externally applied to skin lesions where blisters were not broken in order to promote dry-style exfoliation of the skin lesion. After infrared irradiation, gauze containing MEBO was applied externally to skin lesions with eroded secretions to moisturize them, thus facilitating healing of the skin lesion. Meanwhile, mucosa of special part of patient's body was well nursed. Protective isolation was enhanced in order to reduce secondary infection. The patient's conditions were observed closely. Diet guidance was also done. Results All the patients were dry-style exfoliated with treatment ranges reaching up to 30%to 60%of the affected area. Dry-style exfoliation time was between 5 to 10 days, with an average of 7.20 ±1.69 days. The area of skin lesion erosion ranged from 10% to 60%. Following the external application of MEBO gauze to moisturize and heal, skin lesion healing time ranged from 7 to 18 days with an average of 13.70 ±3.40 days. Conclusion According to the specific situation of toxic epidermal necrolysis, targeted nursing and treatment can promote the dry-style exfoliation of skin lesions, reduce the area of skin erosions, alleviate the suffering of patients and promote healing of the skin lesion.

Objective To investigate the expression of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and Smad signaling in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to explore their roles in the pathogenesis. Methods Fiftythree patients with AS were included in the study. In these 53 cases, 30 patients were performed computed tomography-guided needle biopsy in sacroiliac joint. Serum TGF-β_1 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Immunohistological studies were performed with the streptavidin-peroxidase conjugated methods to assess the expression of TGF-β_1, p-smad3 and Smad7 in sacroiliac joint tissue sample.One-way ANOVA, two independent samples t test and kolmogoorov-Simimov test were used to do statistical analysis. Results In 53 cases patients with AS, 20 cases were with high level Erythro-cyte sedimentation rate(ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), while those of the other 33 cases were normal. Serum average TGF-β_1level [ (15.9±5.6) ng/ml ], in patients with high level ESR/CRP [(5.4±5.8) ng/ml ] was significantly increased as compared to the controls and patients with normal ESR/CRP [(4.1±3.6) ng/ml] (P<0.05). There was no expression of TGF-β_1 could be detected in the pannus and bone marrow in SI joints tissue of 30 cases with AS, while decreased level of smad7 expression was detected. In addition, p-smad3 expression was found in the nuclear. Conclusion TGF-β_1 signaling may play an important role in the inflammatory erosion and cartilage fibrosis of sacrojlitis in AS.
