Objective To explore the value of neutiophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin ( NGAL) taken from blood and urine samples in early diagnosis of acute kidney injury ( AKI) after heart valves replacement surgeries. Meth-ods A total of 56 patients received heart valves replacement surgeries were selected prospectively in this study. NGAL from blood and urine samples and serum creatinine ( Scr) were tested among them at different moments. AKI and non-AKI groups were divided based on Scr levels and the value of NGAL taken from blood and urine sam-ples was estimated in early diagnosis of AKI with receiver operating characteristic curve ( ROC) . Results 16 AKIs were observed among all of them. The peak value of Scr in AKI group was shown between 12 and 24 hours after surgeries, while blood-NGAL was seen high significantly (P<0.05) since 2 hours after surgeries, peak value at 4 hours, for urine-NGAL, peak value was seen at 2 hours. The area of ROC of blood-NGAL 4 hours and urine-NGAL 2 hours after surgeries for AKI diagnosis were 0.891 and 0.934, respectively. The better sensitivity and specificity were shown in both threshold set as 50 μg/L and 110 μg/L. Conclusion Blood-NGAL and urine-NGAL can be used as early diagnostic markers of AKI after heart valves replacement surgeries, whose change is significantly earli-er than that of Scr.

Objective To investigate the performances and characteristics of femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI)on MSCT. Methods Hips jointed MSCT scans of 109 cases (as case group)and the other 120 cases (as control group)were analyzed retrospec-tively,to analyze the anatomy and osseous abnomality of FAI.Alpha angle,offset,CE angle were measured.The data were tested by using t test and ANOVA test.Results There were 57 cases of osseous protuberance at the femoral head and neck joint,26 cases of the offset reduction,17 cases of over-coverage acetabulum,41 cases of over-deep acetabulum,20 cases of acetabular retroversion,57 cases of subcortical cystic degeneration at the femoral head and neck joint and 22 cases of subchondral cystic degeneration at the ace-tabulum margin.Significant statistical differences were found between case group and control group in alpha angle value,offset and CE angle (P<0.05).Multiple comparisons demonstrated that except results between the value of alpha angle of Cam-type and Mixed-type(P=0.071),Pincer-type and the control group(P=0.083)with no statistical significance,the differences between any other two groups reached statistical significance (P<0.05).Multiple comparisons demonstrated that except result between the value of offset of Cam-type and Mixed-type(P=0.561)with no statistical significance,the differences between any other two groups reached statistical significance (P<0.05).Multiple comparisons demonstrate that except results between the value of CE angle Pin-cer-type and Mixed-type (P=0.444),Cam-type and the control group (P=0.236)with no statistical significance,the differences be-tween any other two groups reached statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion Different type of FAI has its unique anatomical features.Alpha angle,offsetand CE angle for the diagnosis of FAI have important reference values.

Objective To study the expression of CD163 in macrophages and sCD163 level in the serum of neonatal rat model of Escherichia coli (E. coli) sepsis. Methods A total of 72 specific-pathogen-free (SPF) neonatal rats (P7) were randomly and equally assigned into experiment group and control group. E. coli was injected peritoneally and the sepsis model was established in the experiential group while normal saline (NS) was injected in the control group. Samples were collected at 2, 4, 6, 12, 24 h and 48 h after the treatment. CD163 expression in macrophages of lung and liver tissues were tested using immunohistochemical(IHC) method, and the dynamic changes of sCD163 concentration in the serum were monitored usingenzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Results In the experiment group, CD163 expression in macrophages of lung and liver were gradually decreased at eachtime point (P <0. 001). At 2 h, CD163 expression in macrophages showed no significant differences between the two groups (P >0. 05). At 4 h and later timepoints, the differences were statistically significant (P <0. 001) . Meanwhile, sCD163 in the serum increased gradually (P <0. 01). At 2 h, sCD163 in the serum showed no significant differences between the two groups (P >0. 05). At 4 h and later timepoints, the differences were statistically significant (P <0. 001). Conclusions CD163 plays an important role in sepsis.

Purpose To explore the diagnostic value of quantitative measurements of magnetic resonance images (MRI) in transverse and coronary sections in patients with ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) syndrome.Materials and Methods The data of 70 patients (127 hips) in the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College from 2013 June to 2016 April who were performed hip MRI examination was analyzed retrospectively.39 patients (67 hips) with clinical diagnosis of IFI syndrome were selected as case group,while the other 31 patients (58 hips) with clinical exclusion of IFI syndrome were selected as control group.Ischiofemoral space (IFS),quadratusfemoris space (QFS),ischial angle,femoral neck angle (FNA) and lesser trochanter angle (LTA) were measured on axial MR image with PDWI FS sequence.The cervicodiaphyseal angle (CCD) was measured on coronary section MR image with T2WI TIRM sequence.The above measurements of two groups were analyzed.Results IFS,QFS and LTA in patients of case group were 12.2 (10.2-13.9) mm,8.5 (6.9-10.4) mm and (13.8±0.7) °,while these measurements were 26.3 (22.9-30.4) mm,21.6 (19.5-25.4) mm and (19.9± 1.0) ° in patients of control group.Compared with control group,these measurements were significantly lower in case group (P<0.01).Ischial angel,FNA were significantly higher in case group compared with control group [(131.2±0.4) ° vs.(127.1±0.6) °,29.2 (22.8-34.1) ° vs.22.7 (19-28.3) °,P<0.01].CCD showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05).QFS,LTA have positive correlation with IFS in case group (r=0.870 and 0.653,P<0.05),while FNA,ischial angel have significant negative correlation with IFS in case group (r=-0.623 and-0.655,P<0.05).The cut-offvalues ofQFS,FNA,ischial angel and LTA were ≤ 12.7 mm,≥ 21.75 °,≥ 131.65 °,≤ 9.3°,respectively.Conclusion The reduction ofIFS and QFS is the main imaging signs of IFI syndrome.

Objective To systematic evaluate the efficacy of paricalcitol on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and proteinuria in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.Methods According to the collaborative search strategy,PubMed,the clinical control test database of Cochrane Library,Embase,Chinese Wanfang database,CNKI,VIP database (form the date of database establishment to March 2014) were searched.Published and unpublished literature,abstracts in academic meetings (ASN,WCN,CSN) were also searched by hand.The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about the efficacy paricalcitol on eGFR and proteinuria in non-dialysis CKD patients were selected.Review Manager Software 5.2 was used for statistical analysis.Results Seven RCTs with a total of 834 patients were included (508 in experimental group,326 in placebo group).No statistical difference of the efficacy on eGFR[SMD=-0.10,95% CI:(-0.28-0.07),P=0.26] between lower dose paricalcitol (< 2 μg/d) group and placebo group,while higher dose (2 μg/d) group reduced eGFR significantly [SMD=-0.45,95% CI:(-0.63--0.27),P < 0.01].Compared with placebo,paricalcitol reduced proteinuria significantly [OR(95%C1):2.09(1.52-2.58),P < 0.01],and there was no difference between different dose groups [OR(95%CI):1.09(0.62-1.91),P=0.77].Lower dose group [OR(95%C1):0.93(0.57-1.52),P=0.76] and higher dose group [OR(95% CI):2.08(0.70-6.18),P=0.19] did not significantly increase the risk of adverse events.Conclusions Lower dose paricalcitol (< 2 μg/d)has no effect on eGFR in non-dialysis CKD patients meanwhile reduces proteinuria.The higher dose (2μg/d) may reduce eGFR without farther reduction in proteinuria.
