BACKGROUND:About 10%-49%of maintenance hemodialysis patients are accompanied by refractory hypertension and common drug therapy is ineffective. Continuous renal replacement therapy could clear the middle and giant molecule toxins in the blood plasma of patients, it is theoretical y treat refractory hypertension through reducing the toxin levels.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of continuous renal replacement therapy on maintenance hemodialysis patients with refractory hypertension.
METHODS:A total of 45 maintenance hemodialysis patients with refractory hypertension were randomly divided into two groups, hemodialysis group (n=22) and continuous blood purification group (n=23). Hemodialysis group underwent conventional hemodialysis treatment. Continuous blood purification group underwent conventional hemodialysis therapy, and treatment of continuous blood purification weekly.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 3 months of treatment, the renin activity, endothelin, angiotensin II, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-αlevels in continuous blood purification group were significantly lower than the levels before the experiment, while 24-hour mean blood pressure levels were significantly decreased (P<0.05). In hemodialysis group, renin activity, endothelin, angiotensin II, C-reactive
protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-αlevels and 24-hour mean blood pressure did not change (P>0.05). After the test, continuous blood purification group showed significantly lower levels of the above index than the hemodialysis group (P<0.05). Continuous renal replacement therapy plus hemodialysis significantly reduce the blood pressure in maintenance hemodialysis patients with refractory hypertension, the potential mechanisms are mediated by lowering the middle and giant molecule toxin as wel as inflammatory factor in plasma.

Objective: To inquire into the testis gene change of mouse model with kidney-yang deficiency induced by overfatigue and excessive sexual life, the modern science mechanism of syndrome of kidney-yang deficiency and kidney controlling reproduction can be revealed on the gene level. Methods: The model of kidney-yang deficiency was established by each male mouse with six female mice keeping in the same cage, and all the male mice were forced to swim for 30-40 minutes everyday lasting for four weeks. The testis genes of mice in control group and model group were detected with Mouse OneArrayTM Whole Genome DNA microarray. The differentially expressed genes were screened under the condition of the relative fluorescence intensity ratio of the two groups ≥2 and ≤0.5 and further classified according to gene function by using Molecule Annotation System (MAS) created by CapitalBio Corp. Beijing, China. Results: The mouse model with kidney-yang deficiency was established successfully by the method of overfatigue and excessive sexual life. The scatter plot of gene expression profiles of comparing control group with model group was drawn. Differentially expressed genes were screened, including 2425 up-regulated genes and 3080 down-regulated genes. Among the first one hundred up-regulated genes, 41 genes were known and among the first one hundred down-regulated genes, 62 genes were known. These genes were mainly related to the cellular structure/function, material/energy metabolism, signal transduction/transmission, inflammation/immunization, cell apoptosis, transcription/translation,proliferation/differentiation and cell cycle. Conclusion: The testis gene of kidney-yang deficiency mouse had a wide change. The essence of kidney-yang deficiency syndrome and the theory of the kidney originating and controlling life reproduction were explained on the gene level.
