Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2010;33(19):15-17
Objective To determine the efficacy and safety of intravenous iron sucrose and oral iron dextran in renal anemia patients. Methods Sixty renal anemia patients were randomized into two groups:intravenous iron group(IV group, 100 mg iron sucrose twice a week) and oral iron group(oral group, 150 mg iron dextran every day). The changes in hemoglobin (Hb),hematocrit (Hct),serum ferritin (SF),and transferrin saturation (TSAT) were assessed on week 4,8, and 12 after treatment. The maintenance dosages of erythropoietin (EPO) after reaching treatment target and the adverse events were also observed. Results Hb increased after treatment in IV group [(79.87 ± 13.19) g/L to (106.11 ± 12.38) g/L] and oral group [(85.41 ± 11.49) g/L to (94.68 ± 10.06) g/L],and compared with that before treatment, there was significant difference in each group(P< 0.01 ). Also significant difference showed in Hb levels after treatment between two groups(P< 0.01 ). SF and TSAT levels were higher after treatment in IV group than those in oral group (P < 0.01 ). The adverse event was lower in IV group (0) than that in oral group (16.7%,5/30).Conclusions Oral iron dextran which has more adverse events and poor efficacy in curing anemia, can not correct anemia ideally. Meanwhile intravenous iron sucrose has positive effects on renal anemia with low adverse events, and it can be used as a long term iron supplementation in hemodialysis patients.

Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2003;0(02):-
Objective To study the mechanism of spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Articles have been reviewed to find out the theory of spontaneous rupture of HCC.Results Researchful results suggested that the injury of small arteries was usually followed in patients of spontaneous rupture of HCC.In this review,the immune complex,which composed of hepatitis B virus e antigen,complement C1q and immunoglobulins,was found deposited in the elastic membrane of arteries.Likely as a result of immune complex deposition,vascular injury occurs mainly in the small arteries where the deposition of immune complex was present.The small arteries in which immune complex deposited are readily injuried and cause hemorrhage and rupture of HCC during vascular load increase. Conclusion We would conclude that immune complex deposition in vessel wall led to the small arteries injury may be the factor involved in the pathogenesis of spontaneous ruptured HCC.

Objective To comparatively investigate the characteristics of bone metabolism in forelimb malformation WHBE rabbits based on the OPG/RANK/RANKL system.Methods Healthy male 2-2.5-month old WHBE rabbit ( HWR) , Healthy Japanese rabbit ( HJR) and forelimb malformation WHBE rabbit ( FMWR) were used in this study and divided into 3 groups, HWR, HJR and FMWR groups, with 10 rabbits in each group.The shape of forelimb and mean gray value observed from X-ray film were examined, and the bone tissue micro-morphology was analyzed using HE staining.Re-al-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to determine the expression of osteoprotegerin ( OPG) and receptor activator of NF-KB ligand ( RANKL) mRNA.The expressions of OPG, receptor activator of NF-KB ( RANK) and RANKL protein in serum and bone tissue were assayed by enzyme-linked immunoassay ( ELISA) and immunohistochemistry, respectively. Results Compared with the HWR and HJR groups, rabbits in the FMWR group appeared abnormal in toutuous forelimb and thinner bone cortex.The mean gray values of X-ray in the FMWR group were lower than that in the HWR group ( P<0.05).There were significant differences between the FMWR and healthy rabbits (HWR and HJR) in the following pa-rameters:RANKL mRNA expression and RANKL/OPG mRNA ratio in the liver(P<0.05, P<0.01), serum protein expression of RANK and RANKL and RANKL/OPG ratio (P<0.05, P<0.01), and positive index of expression of RANKL protein and RANKL/OPG ratio in the bone tissue(P<0.05, P<0.01).Furthermore, the gene expression lev-els of OPG and RANKL of HWR were significantly higher than that of HJR(P<0.05, P<0.01).Conclusions The FMWR show some abnormal symptoms in bone metabolism as well as decrease of bone quality and histological changes of bone micro-structure, due to the significant increase of RANKL/OPG ratio of FMWR.The breed differences between WHBE and Japanese rabbits in RANKL mRNA expression level may be one of factors inducing limb malformation in the WHBE rabbits.
