Objective To clarify the association of onset and maintenance of metabolic syndrome (MS) with energy metabolism imbalance,especially with dialysate glucose load in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.Methods Using retrospective self-controlled study,the changes of MS,dialysate glucose load and dietary energy intake (DEI) in 126 PD patients in about 1 year were collected and analyzed to define the effect of energy intake on MS.Resting energy expenditure (REE) was measured and physical activity level (PAL) was evaluated based on the activity records in PD patients with unchanged MS state and their impacts on MS were analyzed.Results The incidence of changing from non-MS to MS was higher in glucose load increasing group than that of glucose load unchanged or decreasing group.When glucose load increased,patients developing MS had significantly increased serum triglyceride (TG) level (P<0.01) and significantly decreased serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level (P<0.05),while the waist circumference and blood glucose level did not alter significantly.In patients changing from MS to non-MS,their serum C reactive protein (CRP) levels significantly decreased during the follow-up (P<0.05).No significant difference was found in DEI in patients changing from MS to non-MS.However,in patients changing from non-MS to MS,their DEI decreased during the follow up (P<0.05).In a subgroup analysis in 36 PD patients who maintained their metabolic status and did not change their glucose load,there was no difference in REE per body surface per day between the MS group and the nonMS group (t=0.840,P>0.05).However,the PAL was lower in the MS group than that of the nonMS group (t=2.358,P<0.05).Conclusions The increase of dialysate glucose load may be an important factor leading to the onset of MS,by altering serum TG and HDL-C level.Inflammation and the sedentary life also contribute to the MS state.

Objective To evaluate the effect of N- acetylcysteine(NAC) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) - sensitized neonatal rats with hypoxic- ischemic brain damage(HIBD) and possible mechanism except the antioxidant. Methods With the total number of 98 Wistar pups at postnatal day 8 of either sex was used in this study. There were 86 pups which were divided into three groups to evaluate the brain injury:vehicle group ( n = 29) ,low dose (25 mg/kg) ( n = 31 ) and high dose NAC (200 mg/kg) ( n - 26) treatment group. The pups were injected with LPS(0.1 mg/kg)intraperitoneally 3 days before hypoxic- ischemic(HI) insult. Multiple dose of NAC (25 mg/kg or 200 mg/kg) or vehicle was injected intraperitoneally before and after HI. Brain injury was evaluated 7 days after HI. For the Caspase - 3 activity and immunoblotting analysis, the samples were collected at 24 h after HI treated either with vehicle or high dose NAC ( n = 6 per group). Results The brain injury volume was significantly reduced by high dose NAC (200 mg/kg) treatment compared with that of vehicle (77% reduction, P < 0.001 ). The tissue loss was reduced 67 % ( P < 0.001 ) in high dose NAC treated group compared with that of vehicle. However,there was no significant reduction of brain injury in the low dose NAC treatment group compared with vehicle group. Caspase - 3 like activity measurement showed that the activity decreased 53 % after high dose NAC treatment ( P < 0. 001 ) compared with that of vehicle treatment. The immunoblots showed that the active form of Caspase - 3, 17 kDa band, was abolished by the high dose NAC treatment. Conclusions NAC treatment attenuate LPS - sensitized neonatal HI brain injury is dose dependent. The neuroprotective effect involves Caspase - 3 inhibition.
