The dietary protein intake(DPI), dietary energy intake(DEI), serum albumin(Alb), nPNA, LBM and %LBM were significantly different among three groups (P
4.Current status of chronic kidney disease in China and the challenge to laboratory medicine
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2012;35(9):769-772
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a public health issue worldwide.A recent cross-sectional survey revealed that the prevalence of CKD in residents aged 18 years or older was 10.8%,indicating the challenge of CKD in China.The major indicators of kidney damage include estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR),proteinuria and hematuria.It is recommended that laboratory should report eGFR when reporting results of blood creatinine.Both of Chinese equation and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation could be used.The process of creatinine measurement should be standardized.For evaluation of proteinuria,urinary creatinine should also be measured when using spot urine sample.Considering the high false positive rate and low false negative rate of urine routine test for hematuria,it is recommended that microscopic examination on urinary sediment should be done for those with positive hematuria by urine routine test.(Chin J Lab Med,2012,35:769-772)

Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2008;11(5):296-301
Objective To compare the diagnostic values of different parameters for neonatal sepsis by observing clinical presentations and laboratory tests of hospitalized newborn infants and to find out the the early and fast way in neonatal sepsis diagnosis. Methods Newborn infants admitted to NICU from Sept.2007 to Feb.2008,who met all inclusion and exclusion criteria,were enrolled.The situations in perinatal period,exact time of the onset of infection,clinical manifestations and laboratory indexes were recorded.Infants were classified into 3 groups:septic group(n=13),nonseptic group(n=12) and noninfectious group(n=12).Sensitivity,specificity,false positive rate,false negative rate,Youden's index and positive and negative predictive values(PPV and NPV) were calculated for each test. Receiver-operating characteristic curves were analyzed to determine the optimal thresholds. Results Among all the clinical manifestations,abnormal reaction had the hightest specificity(84.6%) and accuracy(67.9%) in diagnosing neonatal sepsis.SIRS criteria,with the specificity of 95.8%,was helpful in clinical suspected eases.However,routine laboratory tests,such as WBC,PLT and GLU,had poor sensitivity or specificity;I/T had better specificity(100%),but was subject to discrepancy among different observers.The area under the ROC for CRP and PCT were 0.734 and 0.878,with the optimal threshold of 15 mg/L(P=0.020,Youden's index=45.5%) and 0.81 ng/ml(P-0.000,specificity=100%,Youden's index=75.0%),respectively.Conclusions Careful clinical inspection warrants early detection of sick infants.Evaluation of SIRS criteria in clinical suspected septic infants may help in early diagnosis.WBC,I/T,PLT can be used as routinely monitoring indexes for high risk neonates.CRP and PCT concentrations also have significant diagnostic values.

Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(02):-
AIM: To investigate the effect of adrenomedullin on the fibrogenic action of TGF? 1 and the cellular mechanism in renal tubular epithelial cell line (HK-2). METHODS: Total collagen synthesis and secretion were reflected by -proline incorporation and the radioactivity of -hydroproline in the culture medium; ELISA method was used to detect the level of secreted fibronectin (FN); the expression of FN mRNA, collagen IV mRNA and TIMP-1mRNA were determined by RT-PCR; western blot was used to detect the expression of Smad2 and Smad6 proteins. RESULTS: (1) AM could antagonize the expression of collagen and FN stimulated by TGF? 1 in both transcription and translation level; (2) AM down-regulated the TGF? 1-induced TIMP-1 mRNA expression; (3) AM had no effect on the over-expression of Smad2 stimulated by TGF? 1; but could up-regulate the expression of Smad6 inhibited by TGF? 1. CONCLUSION: AM could antagonize the fibrogenic effect of TGF? 1 through up-regulating Smad6 expression in HK-2 cell line.
