Objective To evaluate the value of immunofecal occult blood test (IFOBT) as a prognostic indicator in CKD patients with colorectal impairment.Methods A total of 176CKD patients and 180 healthy adults as control were enrolled.Serum biochemistry was measured at baseline and gastrointestinal bleeding was determined by IFOBT.All the CKD patients were followed up for 4.5 years.Renal replacement therapy or death was defined as end-point event.The Logistic regression analysis was used for risk factors.Kaplan-Meier analysis and COX regression model were used for survival analysis.Results The positive rate of IFOBT in CKD patients was significantly higher than healthy control (17％ vs 5.3％,χ2=13.236,P＜0.01).When comparing with IFOBT negitive patients,IFOBT positive patients were older [(62.030±15.544) years old vs (48.660±19.018)years old,P＜0.01],had higher ESR [(71.800±31.657) mu/h vs (57.210±32.712) mm/h,P＜0.05],C-reactive protein [6.230 (3.000～14.148) mg/L vs 3.000 (3.000～6.833)mg/L,P＜0.05],serum creatinine [419.100 (103.200～546.625) μmol/L vs 175.100 (68.150～462.950) μmol/L,P＜0.05],and had lower hemoglobin level [(97.970±20.590) g/L vs (107.170±27.988) g/L,P＜0.05] and eGFR [11.400 (8.671～53.544) ml·min1·(1.73 m2)1 vs 35.274(10.961～82.145) ml·min-1·(1.73 m2)-1,P＜0.01].There was a negative correlation between IFOBT value and eGFR in CKD patients (r=-0.20,P＜0.01).Positive correlations of IFOBT value with age (r=0.175,P＜0.05) and serum creatinine (r=0.171,P＜0.05) were found.Logistic regression and COX regression analysis showed that IFOBT value,eGFR and ESR were important factors that influenced the prognosis of CKD patients.Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that IFOBT value ＞100μg/L predicted progression of renal function.Conclusions The prevalence of gastrointestinal bleeding disorder is high in patients with CKD.Value of IFOBT independently predicts decline in renal function of CKD patients.

Objective To observe the clinical curative effects of Changwei Shu combined with conventional western medicine therapy in treating the sepsis patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction.Methods A total of 120 cases of sepsis patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,60 patients in each group.The control group was given conventional western medicine therapy,and the treatment group was given Changwei Shu combined with conventional western medicine therapy.After treatment for 7 days,the clinical efficacy and safety were evaluated by observing the changes in white blood cell (WBC) count,procalcitonin (PCT) level,intra-abdominal pressure (IAP),gastrointestinal dysfunction scores,and scores of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ).Results (1) For one case dropped out and one was excluded from the treatment group,and 4 cases dropped out and 2 were excluded from the control group,a total of 58 cases in the treatment group and 54 in the control group were included into the study at the end of the trial.(2) The total effective rate of the treatment group was 91.38％ and that of the control group was 88.89％,the difference being significant (P ＜ 0.05).(3) After treatment,WBC count,PCT level and IAP of the two groups were improved (P ＜ 0.01 compared with those before treatment),and the improvement of the treatment group was superior to that of the control group (P ＜ 0.01).(4) After treatment,gastrointestinal dysfunction scores and APACHE Ⅱ scores of the two groups were decreased(P ＜ 0.01 compared with those before treatment),and the decrease of the treatment group was superior to that of the control group (P ＜ 0.01).(5) During the treatment,4 cases from the treatment group had nausea,and 5 cases from the control group had nausea and abdominal distention,and the symptoms disappeared spontaneously one week later.No obvious changes were found in the hepatic and renal function of the two groups.Conclusion Changwei Shu exerts an effect on reducing the inflammation,improving the gastrointestinal function,and relieving the illness severity of sepsis patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the manifestations of esophageal motility disorders and evaluate the association between them and dysphagia, laboratory tests and other accessory examinations in patients with Sj(o)gren's syndrome (SS). Methods Esophageal manometry was performed in 31 patients with SS and 18 healthy volunteers by the step pull-through method. Results Decreased upper esophageal sphincter pressure was detected in 19 of the 31 patients (61%) with SS, while 4 of 18 (22%) in controls. The frequency was significantly higher in patients than in healthy controls (P=0.008). Fifteen of 31 patients (48%) showed various patterns of esophageal dysfunction including ineffective esophageal motility in 6 patients, nutcracker esophagus in 3 patients and nonspecific dysmotility in 6 patients. No major differences were found in esophageal parameters (peak amplitude, wave duration and velocity) when comparing primary SS with secondary SS. These esophageal abnormalities were not correlated with clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations and other auxiliary examinations. Conclusion Patients with SS may have esophageal motility disorders, which can presents with different patterns.

Objective As an effective means of liver function support for acute liver failure, bioartificial liver has seen great progress in recent years. However, the development of this type of device is currently hindered by limited oxygen transport to cultured hepatocytes. In this study we try to resolve this problem by supplementing the circulating medium of the bioreactor with red blood cells.Methods Freshly isolated primary porcine hepatocytes were inoculated into our newly designed bioreactor and were divided into two groups: RPMI1640 was circulated in the control group and porcine red blood cells were added into the culture medium in the experimental group. The culture media in both groups were oxygenated through extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation, and the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) in the bioreactor was measured by a blood gas analyzer. Liver-specific functions and glucose consumption were also determined. Results The OCR of the experimental group was 1.5 fold that of the control group, and the glucose consumption rate was twice that of the control group. The liver-specific functions of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group in terrns of albumin secretion and urea synthesis. Conclusion Supplementing the circulating medium of the bioreactor with red blood cells can significantly improve the oxygen supply in the bioreactor, thereby enhancing the glucose consumption and liver-specific functions of hepatocytes. This method is convenient and effective, and is expected to be an effective means to resolve the problems of oxygen supply in the bioreactor.

Objective To discuss the value of diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) and 18F-FDG-PET/CT in assessing the early therapeutic effect of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for VX2 sarcomas in experimental rabbits. Methods VX2 sarcoma was inoculated at bilateral hind limbs in 14 New Zealand white rabbits to establish the animal models. The implanted VX2 tumor on one hind leg was treated with ultrasound-guided percutaneous RFA (study group), while no RFA was given to the VX2 tumor on the contralateral hind leg (control group). DWI-MRI was performed at 2 days after RFA, and 18F-FDG-PET/CT examination was employed at 3 days after RFA. The mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and standard uptake value (SUV) of the untreated tumor and the ablated tumor were separately calculated. Taking the pathologic result as the gold standard, the consistency of DWI-MRI, PET/CT as well as the combination of DWI-MRI and PET/CT with the clinical diagnosis was separately evaluated by Kappa test. Results Before RFA, DWI-MRI demonstrated that the VX2 tumor was characterized by hypo-intensity signal on T1 and hyper-intensity signal on T2 with ring-shaped enhancement on T1-weighted image; PET/CT showed that the tumor had nodular or ring-shaped 18F-FDG accumulation. After RFA, DWI-MRI revealed that the VX2 tumor was manifested as hyper-intensity signal on T1 and slight higher density on T1 with slight enhancement on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted image; PET/CT showed lowered accumulation of 18F-FDG. The mean ADC value of the ablated tumor was (1.52 ± 0.24) × 10-3 mm2/s, which was obviously higher than that of the un-ablated tumor, that was (1.09 ± 0.12) × 10-3 mm2/s, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The mean SUV value of the ablated tumor was (0.6 ± 0.3), which was significantly lower than that of the ablated tumor (9.6 ± 3.2, P<0.05). No significant difference in sensitivity, specificity and accuracy existed between DWI-MRI and pathology as well as between PET/CT and pathology, the Kappa value being 0.357 and 0.428 respectively (P>0.05). The Kappa value of the consistency between combination of DWI-MRI with PET/CT and pathology was 0.786, which was significantly different from the result by simple DWI-MRI or simple PET/CT evaluation (P< 0.05). Conclusion Both ADC value of DWI-MRI and SUV value of PET/CT are useful indexes for evaluating the early therapeutic effect of RFA. Both DWI-MRI and PET/CT have their respective advantages, nevertheless, combination use of both can effectively improve the evaluation of curative effect for VX2 tumor after RFA in experimental rabbits.
