Aim To establish a set of consummate evaluation methods of animal models which are with syndromes of traditional Chinese medicine.Method By means of 2,4-dinitrophenol-induced fever syndrome model for the entry point,making use of meta bonomics as the platform,through analyzing metabolic fingerprint data of rat urine in the control and model group and metabolome of rat urine in model group at different time intervals,to approach the evaluation methods of animal models.Results Through research by metabonomics,the results showed that 2,4-dinitrophenol-induced animal models consisted with clinical fever syndrome of traditional Chinese medicine.Conclusion Metabonomics can be used for evaluation studies of animal models which are with syndromes of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To compare the models of guinea pig allergic rhinitis induced by different allergens. Methods: Ovalbumin (OVA), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI) and alternariaalternata was respectively used as the allergens to establish the model of guinea pigs allergic rhinitis. The conformity of the models and human allergic rhinitis was studied through the behavioral indices, such as the times of nose itches, nasal discharge flow, histological properties and serum HA and IgE indices. Results:The times of sneezing and scratching nose, serum HA and IgE in OVA group was significantly different from those in the control group (P<0. 001 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:The models of allergic rhinitis induced by OVA are the same as allergic rhinitis in typical symptoms and pathological changes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of kidney transplantation from donation after brain death (DBD) donors complicated with acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods Clinical data of 216 DBD donors were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into the AKI group (n=69) and control group (n=147) according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines. Donors in the AKI group were further divided into the KDIGO stage 1 and stage 2-3 subgroups. One hundred and thirty-five recipients were assigned into the AKI group and 288 recipients in the control group. Postoperative recovery of renal function and clinical outcomes of the recipients were recorded. The risk factors of delayed graft function (DGF) were identified. Results The highest serum creatinine (Scr) level, Scr level before procurement, the highest blood sodium level and blood sodium level before procurement in the AKI group were higher than those in the control group. The application duration of vasopressors in the AKI group was longer than that in the control group. In the AKI group, the amount of fluid resuscitation within 48 h was higher, the HCO3− level at admission was lower, and the incidence of diabetes insipidus and hypotension was higher than those in the control group. The highest Scr level and the Scr level before procurement in KDIGO stage 2-3 donors were significantly higher than those in KDIGO stage 1 counterparts (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the incidence of DGF and acute rejection was higher, the proportion of continuous renal replacement therapy was higher, the Scr level within postoperative 90 d was higher, and the urine amount within postoperative 3 d was less than those of recipients in the AKI group. Compared with KDIGO stage 1 recipients, KDIGO stage 2-3 recipients had higher Scr levels at postoperative 3, 4, 5 and 15 d, and less urine amount at postoperative 2 d (all P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that donor age, the highest Scr level, the highest blood sodium level and the amount of fluid resuscitation within 48 h were the risk factors for DGF in recipients after kidney transplantation. Multivariate analysis showed that donor age was the independent risk factor for DGF in recipients after kidney transplantation (all P<0.05). Conclusions For the application of DBD donors complicated with AKI, active organ maintenance should be performed to alleviate AKI. It exerts no effect upon graft function and survival rate at postoperative 6 months, which may achieve equivalent efficacy as non-AKI donors and may be used as a source of extended criteria donor kidneys.
