Objective: To investigate the state of calcium-phosphorus metabolism and serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, to analyze clinical characters, and to provide scientific basis for clinical treatment. Methods: The data of 100 ESRD patients who received hemodialysis in Peking University First Hospital from January 2000 to July 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. Results: (1) The levels of serum total calcium were adjusted by serum albumin. There were 15 patients with hypocalcemia and 85 patients with normocalcemia or hypercalcemia. 31.8% of the latter took calcium-containing phosphate binders or/and vitamin D. In the 14 patients with hypocalcemia and 58 patients without low serum calcium who did not take calcium-containing phosphate binders or/and vitamin D, we found the levels of carbon dioxide combining power (CO 2CP) were lower in the group of hypocalcemia (P

Objective To evaluate the acute effects of different calcium concentration dialysate (1.25 mmol/L, 1.5 mmol/L, 1.75 mmol/L) on calcium balance and intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH) in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) patients with normal serum tCa, and to provide scientific basis for individualized calcium concentration dialysate formula. Methods Dialysate with different calcium concentration (DCa1.25, DCa1.5, DCa1.75) was used in twelve stable MHD patients. Serum tCa, iCa(normalized to pH 7.4) and iPTH were assessed before and after each dialysis session with different calcium concentration dialysate. The iCa from fresh dialysate, spent dialysate at every 30 minutes interval and final total mixed spent dialysate were examined respectively. Phosphorus removal was also determined. Arterial blood pressure(BP) was measured every 30 minutes during hemodialysis session. Results With the DCa1.25, mean calcium loss was 5.03 mmol, but no significant changes of serum iCa and tCa between pre dialysis and post dialysis were found. Serum iPTH increased from (127.17?89.22)pg/ml to (281.92?244.84)pg/ml significantly (P

Objective:To investigate the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and its pathology relationship in IgA nephropathy(IgAN),so as to deduce the pathogenetic condition and prognosis,and guide the clinic therapy.Methods: 53 cases of IgAN were analyzed retrospectively,syndrome differentiations were concluded by the diagnosis criteria of TCM syndrome in the clinic research and guiding principe of the curment new herd in chronic nephritis in 2002 into deficiency of spleen and kidney qi,deficiency of liver and kidney yin,deficiency of both qi and yin,and the accompanied syndrome as affection of exogenous wind-heat,endoretention of damp-heat and blood stagnation.The relationship among pathological parameters,pathological stages and the above syndromes were observed.Results:Compared the three clinical syndromes of deficiency of spleen and kidney qi,deficiency of liver and kidney yin and deficiency of both qi and yin of 53 cases of patients,pathology change and pathological stage were the lightest in deficiency of spleen and kidney qi,on the contrary,the heaviest in deficiency of both qi and yin,P

Objective To evaluate the effects of strict dietary salt restriction on blood pressure and proteinuria in chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN) patients. Methods From October 2007 to April 2009, 32 CGN inpatients were enrolled. Among them, 15 patients followed a strict dietary salt restriction menu (sodium 100 mmol/d, potassium 50 mmol/d, protein (0. 8-1. 0) g · kg~(-1) · d~(-1) , calorie (105-125) KJ · kg~(-1) · d~(-1) ) for 7 days, while the other 17 patients were fed freely offered by hospital as controls. 24 h urinary sodium excretion (24h-UNa) was used to monitor the salt intake. No changes of drug therapy were made during the study. Blood pressure was monitored every day. 24-hour urinary protein and serum biochemical parameter were measured before and after the study. Results There was no significant difference of baseline 24h-UNa between the two groups [(135.1 ±50.4) mmol/d vs (137.4 ±28.6) mmol/d) ]. During the study, the average 24h-UNa of patients with strict dietary intervention was (97. 2 ± 8.6) mmol/d. Both SBP [ (117. 7 ± 10. 0) mm Hg( 1 mm Hg=0. 133 kPa) vs (106.2 ±9.9) mm Hg] and DBP [ (76. 3 ± 6. 1 ) mm Hg vs (67. 5 ± 5. 5 ) mm Hg] decreased significantly ( P < 0. 001 ) . Proteinuria decreased significantly too [ 1. 57 (0. 3-3. 0) g/d vs 0. 57 (0. 16-2. 72) g/d,P = 0. 006]. The reduction of SBP was positively correlated with the reduction of 24h-UNa (r =0. 572, P =0. 026) , while the reduction of proteinuria correlated with both the reduction of SBP (r = 0. 568, P = 0. 027) and 24h-UNa (r =0. 525, P =0. 044). In the control group, only SBP decreased significantly [ ( 122. 6 ± 15. 5) mm Hg vs (115.8 ±10.4) mm Hg, P = 0.02] without significant changes of DBP and proteinuria When comparing the subgroups who took ACEI/ARB from both groups, the reduction of proteinuria wasmore prominent of those from the study group than the control group [ - 0. 4 ( -0. 95-0. 07) vs 0. 07 ( - 0. 39-0. 42), P = 0. 014 ]. Conclusion Strict dietary salt restriction is effective in reducing blood pressure and proteinuria in CGN patients.

The graphene prepared by chemical vapor deposition onto copper foils was transferred onto a poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) soft substrate by the aid of poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA).The soft G/AuNPs/GOD composite electrode based on PET substrate was fabricated using a protocol in which the uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) was firstly obtained by controlling the evaporation of gold sol on a graphene surface, then thioglycolic acid (TGA) was modified on the AuNPs through Au-S bond, and finally glucose oxidase (GOD) was immobilized on the surface of AuNPs through acylation reaction between TGA and the GOD.Glucose was detected in the linear range from 0.05 to 10.55 mmol/L with a linear correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9955.The detection was performed in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7) at 25℃ with a working potential of 0.6 V (vs.SCE electrode), and the detection limit was 1 μmol/L (3σ).The G/AuNPs/GOD flexible electrode based on PET substrate provided a new pathway to detect glucose in special environments using wearable equipment, which enlarged the applied field of glucose detection.

Objective To investigate the difference between Asia-Pacific Colorectal Screening (APCS) scoring system and colorectal cancer sequential screening criteria issued by the Health Ministry of China (China sequential criteria) in the evaluation of high-risk colorectal neoplasm in patients undergoing coronary artery angiography (CAG) examination.Methods The data of 870 patients aged from 40 to 74 who underwent CAG examination were retrospectively analyzed.The measurement data were analyzed by t test and the count data were aralyzed by x2 test.Results There were 72 patients aged from 40 to 49 years old.Among them,eight patients were stratified as high-risk population according to the Chinese sequential criteria; however there was no high-risk population by APCS.There were 798 patients aged from 50 to 74 years old.There were 460 patients stratified as high-risk population by APCS.The percentage of CAG negative group (34.7％) was significantly lower than that of the coronary artery disease (CAD) group (68.0％,x2 =77.74,P＜0.01).According to the Chinese sequential criteria,and there were 134 patients stratified as high-risk population,and there was no significant difference between the CAG negative group (17.7 ％) and the CAD group (16.4％,P＞0.05).Among the patients aged from 50 to 74 years old without family history of colorectal cancer in first-degree relatives,72 cases (29.0％) of the CAG negative group and 316 cases (57.5％) of the CAD group were stratified as high-risk according to APCS,however not stratified as high-risk by the Chinese sequential criteria.About 90.5 ％ (351/388) of them were male smokers.According to APCS,30 cases (12.1％) of the CAG negative group and 32 cases (5.8％) of the CAD group were stratified as middle-risk population,however stratified as high-risk population by the Chinese sequential criteria.About 75.8％ (47/62) of them were female non-smokers.Conclusions The percentage of patients stratified as high-risk population by APCS was higher than that by the Chinese sequential criteria.In patients aged from over 50 to 74 years old and without family history of colorectal cancer in first-degree relative,APCS maybe overestimated the risk degree of colorectal neoplasm in male smokers and underestimated the risk degree in female non-smokers.

Objective To evaluate previous gastroscopy before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the risks and benefits of concomitant use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) after PCI in patients with non-acute coronary syndrome (non-ACS).Methods The data of 673 non-ACS patients who underwent PCI with stenting were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into concomitant use of PPIs group and non-PPIs group,then subdivided into high-,moderate-and low-risk groups according to risk factors associated with adverse upper gastrointestinal (GI) events.The incidences of adverse cardiovascular events and adverse upper GI events were compared among groups.Findings of previous gastroscopy were also included.Results Only 82 patients (12.2％) underwent gastroscopy within 5 years before PCI,of whom,27 (32.9％) were diagnosed as having peptic ulcer,and 55.6％ (15/27) of whom were in concomitant use of PPIs.Compared with the non-PPIs group,the rate of adverse cardiovascular events in the concomitant use of PPIs group was significantly higher (22.6％ vs.8.9％,P ＜0.01),and the highest rate (41.7％) was in the high-risk group.However,the corresponding rate of adverse upper GI events was the lowest (4.2％).In the moderate-risk group,90.5 ％ (344/380) of patients were older than 65 years with concomitant use of NSAIDs.The rate of gastroscopy within 5 years before PCI in these patients was remarkably lower than that in patients who had the history of upper GI disease with concomitant use of NSAIDs (concomitant use of PPIs group 14.1％ vs.54.5％ ; non-PPIs group 7.5％ vs.28.0％ ; P ＜ 0.01).In the concomitant use of PPIs group,the rate of adverse cardiovascular events in the former was notably higher than that in the latter (20.5％ vs.9.1％,P ＜0.01),but the rate of adverse upper GI events within 1 year after PCI were similar (9.0％ vs.9.1％).Conclusion Previous gastroscopy before PCI could provide the baseline information of upper GI disease,which may be helpful for the evaluation of concomitant use of PPIs after PCI so as to decrease the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.Special attention should be paid to those patients older than 65 years in the moderate-risk group and concomitant use of NSAIDs.

Objective:To explore the curative effects of individualized surgical method for treating pyriform sinus fistula (PSF) in children.Methods:A total of 43 PSF children treated in the Department of Pediatric Surgery of Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from June 2015 to November 2019 were selected, with 41 cases on the left side and 2 cases on the right side.There were 27 cases in the quiescent inflammatory infection stage and 16 cases in the acute inflammatory infection stage.According to patients′ condition, low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation, fistulectomy, abscess incision and drainage or combined operation were conducted.The postoperative complications and recurrence were observed.Results:Among 43 cases, there were 19 cases treated with low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation, 11 cases treated with low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation combined with abscess incision and drainage, 5 cases treated with low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation combined with fistulectomy, and 8 cases treated with fistulectomy.Four cases had postoperative hoarseness and recovered within 1-5 months.One case occurred pseudo healing after abscess incision and drainage, and healed after incision and debridement.Totally, 4 cases recurred, and the follow-up time was from 3 months to 57 months.Conclusions:Low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation has the advantages of minimally invasive, safe and effective, which provides a new treatment for PSF in children.Based on the condition of children, the choice of individualized treatment can significantly improve the curative effects.

OBJECTIVETo study the distribution of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(PARP) pseudogene polymorphism and the association with susceptibility to lung cancer in Chinese people.

METHODSThe subjects of this study included 63 patients with lung cancer and 82 healthy controls matched in gender and age. Genome DNA was extracted from white blood cells. Products from PCR with a pair of specific primer were electrophoresized in agarose including EB. Under ultraviolet, observation and imaging were performed.

RESULTSThere was no significant difference in genotype between the cases and controls. The frequencies of B allele in cases and controls were 0.095 and 0.116 respectively. Whether there was B allele or not, smoking was a risk factor of lung cancer (P<0.05). As the genotype was AA and AB or BB, smoking OR was 2.28 and 4.83 respectively. Among non-smokers, the risk at lung cancer did not increase in AB or BB genotypes(P=0.202).

CONCLUSIONFrequency of B allele is relatively lower in Chinese people than in other races. In smokers, B allele may be a susceptible marker of lung cancer, and there is synergistic function between B allele and smoking.
