Objective To summarize the clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of autologous urologic neoplasms in renal transplant recipients.Methods A retrospective analysis on the clinical data of 25 renal transplant recipients was done in our center.The onset time of new neoplasms was between 29 to 72 months after transplantation,with an average of 48.2 months.Intermittent hematuria was the first symptom in 23 patients,and the rest two cases were diagnosed through routine examination. The pathological diagnoses of thee cases were renal carcinoma,which were treated by transperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.Eight cases were diagnosed as having renal pelvic tumor,which was treated by radical resection for the renal pelvic carcinoma.Fourteen cases were diagnosed as having bladder cancer,which was treated by transurethral resection of bladder tumor (13 cases) or radical cystectomy (one case).All patients were subjected to surgical treatment.The dosage of MMF,CSA/Tacrolimus was decreased to 1/2-2/3 of their original dosage. Sirolimus was used in place of calcineurin inhibitors in four patients.Immunosuppressive regimes and adjuvant therapy were given after surgery treatment.Results Twenty-five patients were followed up for 12-84 months.Contralateral renal carcinoma combined with lung and chest multiple metastases occurred in one case after radical nephrectomy,who died after targeted therapy 6 months later.Two patients with lymph node metastasis died 14 months and 20 months after surgery respectively.The rest 22 patients were closely followed up,whose creatinine remained 98-163μmol/L.Conclusion More attention should be paid to patients with hematuria after renal transplantation to screen the autologous urinary neoplasms.Patients should be treated with surgical procedures,and immunosuppressive regimens should be adjusted postoperatively.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of retroperitoneal laparoscopic and open radical nephrectomy in patients with T1 renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods 352 patients under-went radical nephrectomy for T1 RCC, 185 by retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy(group A) and 167 by open radical nephrectomy through an extraperitoneal flank incision(group B). The op-eration time, blood loss during operation, hospital stay and complication after surgery were analyzed and compared. All the cases were followed up for 6-42 months(median, 25 months) and the survival rates were recorded. Results The operation time of group A, B was 55-130(75.6±11.2)min vs. 50-140(68.0±10.6)min(P0.05). Blood loss was 50-1200(110.6±32.3)ml vs. 50-1500 (160.8±38.1)ml(P<0.05). Eight cases of group A and 132 cases of group B took analgesic after surgery(P<0.05). The fasting period was 1-2(1.3±0.5)day vs. 2-5(2.9±1.2)d of group B (P<0.05)ilengthof hospital stay was 3-7(4.6±1.2)d vs. 7-14(8.9±1.6)d(P<0.05). The survival rate was 85.4 % vs. 86.2% (P0.05). Conclusions Compared with open radical nephrec-tomy, retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy is associated with lower blood loss, narcotic requirement and complications, a shorter hospital stay and earlier resumption of routine activities. Retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nrphrectomy has become a gold standard therapy in T1 renal cell carcinoma.

Objective To study the correlation between serum homocysteine ( Hcy ) level and C677T polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase ( MTHFR ) gene C677T polymorphism ( rs1801133) in patients with cerebral infarction, and feature of rs1801133 polymorphism and serum Hcy level in cerebral infarction patients with or without diabetes mellitus.Methods Case-control study.Five hundred and fifty six patients with cerebral infarction admitted to China-Japan Friendship Hospital from January 2014 to January 2015 were included as the case group while 275 subjects from medical examination center without cerebral infarction and diabetes mellitus matched with the case group.MTHFR C677T polymorphism was determined by pyrosequencing and serum Hcy was determined by circulating enzymatic.Chi-square test was used to analyze the distribution of genotype in different group; ANVOA was used to analyze the Hcy level with different genotype in patients with cerebral infarction, and LSD-t was used to pairwise comparison.Results Among the 556 patients with cerebral infarction ,TT genotype were 202 cases (36.33%), CT genotype were 257 cases(46.22%), CC genotype were 97 cases(17.45%).The T allele 44%, higher than the control group T allele frequencies 46.91%(χ2 =23.385,P<0.001).The level of TT genotype serum Hcy level (21.31 ±17.31) μmol/L were higher than CT genotype (14.88 ±7.71) μmol/L(P<0.001)and CC genotype(14.48 ±7.78) μmol/L(P<0.001).There is no significant statistics different in TT genotype frequency between Cerebral infarction patients with diabetes mellitus(36.77%) and without diabetes mellitus(36.44%) (χ2 =0.031,P>0.05), while the level of serum Hcy in Cerebral infarction patients with diabetes mellitus ( 18.16 ±12.90 )μmol/L is lower than Cerebral infarction patients without diabetes mellitus(23.47 ±19.53) μmol/L in TT genotype( F=4.652, P<0.05).Conclusions MTHFR TT genotype was related to serum hyperhomocysteine, and maybe save as the risk of cerebral infarction.The Hcy level in TT genotype cerebral infarction patients with DM is lower than the same genotype patients without DM.(Chin J Lab Med, 2016, 39:205-209 )

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) genetic polymorphism on blood concentration of tacmlimus (TAC) and renal function in renal transplant recipients during the stable period.METHODS:A total of 98 renal transplant recipients during the stable period receiving TAC-based triple anti-rejection scheme (TAC + sodium mycophenol +predrnisone acetate) after surgery and regular follow-up were selected from our hospital during Jan.1995-Dec.2014.The follow-up information during Jan.-Dec.2016 was also collected.Trough concentration of TAC in renal transplant recipients was determined by chemiluminescence microparticle immuno assay.Standard blood concentration (C/D) was calculated after corrected with body weight and daily dose.Scr level was detected with dry chemistry method.CYP3A5*3 genotype was detected by PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing.The relationship of CYP3A5*3 genetic polymorphism with TAC C/D value and Scr level was determined by Kruskal Wallis H or Mann-Whitney U assay.RESULTS:Among 98 renal transplant recipients,there were 9 cases of CYP3A5*3 *1/*1(AA) genotype,37 cases of *1/*3 (AG) genotype and 52 cases of *3/*3 (GG)genotype.The gene frequencies were 9.18％,37.76％,53.06％,which were all in line with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P＞0.05).There was no statistical significance in trough concentration of TAC among different genotypes (P＞0.05).There was statistical significance in TAC dose and C/D value among different genotypes (P＞0.05).TAC dose of CYP3A5*3 *3/*3 genotype recipients was significantly lower than those of *1/*3 and *1/*1 genotype recipients;that of *1/*3 genotype recipients was significantly lower than that of *1/*1 genotype recipients.C/D value of *3/*3 genotype recipients was significantly higher than those of *1/*3 and *1/*1 genotype recipients;that of *1/*3 genotype recipients was significantly higher than that of *1/*1 genotype recipients,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance in Scr levels among different genotypes (P＞0.05).CONCLUSIONS:CYP3A5*3 genetic polymorphism significantly influences blood concentration of TAC in renal transplant recipients during the stable period,and *3 allele carriers have higher C/D values and need smaller TAC daily dose.CYP3AS*3 genetic polymorphism may be not associated with Scr level.

Objective:To assess the impact of preoperative Naples prognostic score on the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatic resection.Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 323 patients with HCC who underwent radical hepatectomy in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2012 to December 2017, including 281 males and 42 females, aged (56.6±11.3) years. All patients were divided into three groups according to their preoperative Naples prognostic scores: group A (0) ( n=37), group B (1-2) ( n=193), group C (3-4) ( n=93). Survival was analysed by the Kaplan-Meier method, and differences in survival were compared by the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression were used to analyse the effect of Naples prognostic score on prognosis. Results:The 1-, 3- and 5-year cumulative survival rates of HCC patients after hepatectomy were 91.9%, 78.4% and 68.3% in the A group, 89.1%, 76.1% and 64.4% in the B group, and 84.9%, 63.3% and 43.5% in the C group, respectively, and the cumulative survival rates showed a decreasing trend among the three groups, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The recurrence-free survival rates at 1, 3 and 5 years after hepatectomy were 93.4%, 63.3% and 44.3% in the A group, 77.7%, 46.5% and 35.6% in the B group, and 64.1%, 41.1% and 28.2% in the C group, respectively, and the recurrence-free survival rates showed a decreasing trend among the three groups, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). On Cox multivariate analysis, patients with HCC of 3-4 had a higher risk of death after hepatic resection than those patients of 0 ( HR=2.011, 95% CI: 1.048-3.859, P=0.036), and the risk of postoperative recurrence was also higher than those patients of 0 ( HR=1.820, 95% CI: 1.081-3.066, P=0.024). Conclusion:Preoperative Naples prognostic score performs as a prognostic influence factor on survival and recurrence-free survival after hepatectomy in patients with HCC.

Objective To evaluate the regulatory effect of Diwu Yanggan(DWYG)Decoction on lysoglycerophospholipids(Lyso-GPLs)in circulating exosomes in a mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).Methods Circulating exosomes isolated from mouse serum by size exclusion chromatography were morphologically characterized using transmission electron microscope and examined for surface markers CD9,CD63 and TSG101 using Western blotting.Twenty-four male Kunming mice were randomized into 3 groups for normal feeding(control,n=8)or high-fat diet feeding for 1 week to induce NAFLD,after which the latter mice were given DWYG decoction(treatment group,n=8)or normal saline(model group,n=8)by gavage for 4 weeks.After the last treatment,blood samples were collected from the mice for testing serum TC,HDL-C,LDL-C,ALT and AST levels and isolating circulating exosomes.Using multivariate statistical analysis based on targeted metabolomics strategy,the potential biomarkers for Lyso-GPLs in the exosomes were screened.Results The isolated exosomes about 100 nm in size had a typical saucer-like structure with distinct double-layer membranes and a mean particle size of 137.5 nm and expressed the specific surface marker proteins CD9,CD63 and TSG101.The mouse models of NAFLD had significantly increased serum levels of TC,HDL-C,LDL-C and AST and lowered serum ALT level.A total of 43 Lyso-GPLs with significant reduction after DWYG Decoction treatment were identified in NAFLD mice.Conclusion DWYG Decoction can regulate Lyso-GPLs in circulating exosomes in NAFLD mice,which provides a new clue for studying the therapeutic mechanism of DWYG Decoction for liver disease.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics of nephrotic syndrome induced by sunitinib， and to provide reference for clinical rational drug use. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI， VIP， Wanfang data， PubMed， Web of Science and Medline， case report about sunitinib-induced nephrotic syndrome were collected from the inception to Oct. 30th， 2022. Those case reports were analyzed statistically in terms of gender， age， primary disease， drug use， clinical manifestations， treatment and outcome. RESULTS A total of 15 pieces of literature were collected and 17 patients were involved， including 10 males and 7 females. The average age of patients was （59.35±15.72） years. Among 17 patients， there were 10 patients with renal cell carcinoma and 7 patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor， all of whom received evidence-based medication； the dosage of sunitinib in 15 cases was recorded， and all of them were within the recommended range of the instructions； 9 patients received combined therapy； the time from sunitinib application to the occurrence of nephrotic syndrome was 21 days-52 months， of which 11 cases were ≤2 years. The clinical manifestations in 13 patients were described， including edema， oliguria， foamy urine， weight gain， fatigue， dyspnea on exertion， etc. Eight patients had other adverse reactions induced by sunitinib before suffering from nephrotic syndrome， including new hypertension or worsening of original hypertension， and hand-foot syndrome. Renal biopsy mainly manifested as thrombotic microangiopathy， focal segmental glomerular sclerosis and immune complex glomerulonephritis. Sunitinib withdrawal or dosage reduction was adopted in all patients， and they were given symptomatic treatment such as glucocorticoids and antihypertensive agents. Symptoms of 16 patients were improved， and renal function of one patient deteriorated and hemodialysis was started. Sunitinib was re-challenged in 6 patients， elevated creatinine and substantial proteinuria recurred in 5 patients. CONCLUSIONS In clinical use of sunitinib， it is advisable to periodically monitor renal function. In case of deterioration of renal function， albuminuria， edema， etc.， relevant examinations should be implemented in time， and symptomatic intervention should be taken as soon as possible. Besides， we should be alert to the recurrence of nephrotic syndrome after sunitinib rechallenge.

Objective To analyze the safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(RLPN) for cT2 renal tumors in international multi-centers.Methods This study was conducted to collect information on surgical procedures performed by RLPN and robot assisted laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (RRN) in nineteen international urological centers from January 2012 to December 2017.RLPN were performed in 159 patients (118 males and 41 females),with the average age of (59.3 ± 13.2) years,body mass index(BMI) of (28.7 ± 5.4)kg/m2,preoperative GFR of (77.3 ± 22.1) ml/min.RRN were performed in 219 patients,with the average age of (62.0 ± 12.9) years,BMI of (28.7 ±6.1) kg/m2,preoperative GFR of (71.4 ± 20.3) ml/min.There was no statistical difference between the two groups in gender and BMI.The age of the patients in RLPN group was younger than that in RRN group,and the preoperative GFR was better.The patient's baseline demographics,perioperative data,tumor pathology,oncologic outcomes,and renal function (GFR) were recorded.Results All 378 cases underwent successful surgery.The operation time of RLPN was 150 min(65-353 min),which was shorter than that of RRN [180 min(85-361 min),P ＜ 0.001].The intra-operative blood loss of RLPN was more than that of RRN [150 ml (40-3 000 ml) vs.100 ml (10-1 100 ml),P ＜ 0.001].The incidence of intra-operative complications were not statistically different between the two groups [5.7％ (9/159) vs.3.2％ (7/219),P =0.240].The incidence of postoperative complications was higher in the RLPN group than that in RRN group [19.5％ (31/159) vs.10.5％ (23/219),P =0.014],but there was no significant difference in the incidence of complications of grade 3 or above [4.4％ (7/159) vs.2.3％ (5/219),P =0.246].The recurrence-free survival rate of RLPN group was higher than that of RRN group [91.4％ (117/128) vs.81.9％ (167/204),P =0.013],and RLPN group was more conducive to renal function protection (P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions RLPN for cT2 tumors can obtain effective tumor control rate and better renal function preservation.It could be an acceptable alternative for surgical management of cT2 tumors.
