Objective:To compare the difference of serum levels of M-phospholipaseA2 receptor ( PLA2R) antibodies in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN) detected by two different methods and evaluate the diagnostic value of two methods. Methods:Patients diagnosed as membranous nephropathy and other diseases with biopsy-proven from december 2014 to october 2015 in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University were enrolled and devided into IMN group and non-IMN group. The serum levels of anti-PLA2R antibody were detected by both indirect immunofluorescence assay(IFA) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results:The sensitivity of IFA and ELISA in IMN were 71. 3% and 68. 5%,and the specificities of two methods were the same as 100%. The area under ROC curves of anti-PLA2R antibody for IMN diagnosis were 0. 860 and 0. 839. The diagnostic value of IFA and ELISA was no statistically significant differences in IMN ( P>0. 05 ) , and the consistency of two methods was better (κ=0. 876). The IMN patients of positive anti-PLA2R antibody be susceptible to the low level of serum albumin (P<0. 05). The higher levels of PLA2R antibody were linked with the worse hypoproteinemia and the higher rate of nephrotic-range proteinuria in IMN patients. Conclusion:Two methods of detecting sera PLA2R antibody have higher sensitivity and specificity,so the sera anti-PLA2R antibody was a better biomarker in the diagnosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum cystain C,urinary neutrophil gelatinase?associated lipocalin(NGAL),uri?nary kidney injury molecule?1(KIM?1)and preeclampsia,and explore the value in predicting preeclampsia and early kidney damage. Methods A total of 30 cases of pregnant women with severe preeclampsia,30 cases of mild preeclampsia and 60 cases of healthy pregnant women admitted in the Second Hospital of Jilin University from October 2014 to July 2015 were enrolled for the study. ELISA was performed to check urinary KIM?1 and urinary NGAL,and the serum cystatin C was detected by immune turbidity method. Results KIM?1,NGAL,serum cystatin C in the preeclampsia were significantly higher than the normal control group(P<0.05). In addition,with the development of their concentrations,the progression of pre?eclampsia gradually rise;BMI,e?GFR,urine protein/creatinine ratio,KIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL are the risk factors for preeclampsia;uKIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL and combined predictors of preeclampsia are taken as the early indicators of renal injury,which sensitivity are separately 83.3%,75%,88.9%,96.8%;specificity are respectively 72.7%,70%,75.6%,86.4%. Conclusion KIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL may reflect the progression of renal injury in preeclampsia .Combined predictors have a higher predictive value in the early renal injury of the preeclampsia.

Yuanhuacine is a daphne-type diterpene isolated from Daphne genkwa. It is also isolated from the plant of Daphne and Euphorbia. With the further research on yuanhuacine, it has been found that yuanhuacine has strong anti-tumor activity, and it also exhibits significant anti-virus, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and anti-fertility activities. Yuanhuacine can enter various tissues with the blood, and pass through the blood-brain barrier. The bioavailability of yuanhuacine is good, which has potential therapeutic significance for the lesions of all tissues. However, the researches on yuanhuacine mainly focus on the preclinical research and yuanhuacine is only used to induce labor clinically. The purpose of this study is to systematically summarize and analyze the pharmacological activity, drug metabolism in vivo, and clinical application of yuanhuacine, so as to provide a theoretical basis for its development and application.

By searching the registry information of systematic review regarding acupuncture included before March 31, 2014 in PROSPERO systematic review registry platform, information in the project plan such as care gories of diseases, interventions, research team and the completion status was analyzed to make a comprehensive understanding on registry status of acupuncture systematic review in this platform. As a result, a total of 52 project plans was finally included. The health problem concerned was mainly painrelated diseases, and the interventions were mostly simple acupuncture or combination of acupuncture and moxibustion. The registered plan participated with Chinese team appeared comparatively late, which was featured with fewer independent projects and concentrated research organization, so its scientific research advantage in acupuncture did not present. In conclusion, it is believed that the consciousness on systematic review registry in domestic researchers needs to be improved, and researchers might take good advantages of the PROSPERO platform in the future.

Objective To analyze the associations of the interleukin-10 (IL-10) promoter-1082G/A and-819C/T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and serum level of IL-10 with intracranial aneurysm (IAs). Methods The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA direct sequencing methods were used to detect IL-10 gene promoter district two SNP site,-1082G/A and-819C/T genotype frequency and allele frequency in 206 patients with IAs and 187 controls. Chi-square test was used to analyze differences between two groups. The serum level of IL-10 was analyzed by ELISA, and t-test was used to analyze significant differences between two groups. Results There were significant differences in genotypes of GG and GA+AA, as well as the alleles G and A, in-1082G/A locus between IAs group and control group (P<0.01). There were higher frequencies of genotype GA+AA and the allele A in IAs group than those in control group (P<0.01). There was higher risk of suffering IAs in patients with genotype GA+AA (OR=4.137, 95%CI:2.476-6.914) and the allele A (OR=3.368, 95%CI:2.476-4.583). There were higher frequencies of the genotype CT+TT and the allele T in-819C/T locus in IAs group than those of control group (P<0.01). There was higher risk of suffering IAs in patients with genotype CT+TT (OR=3.393, 95%CI:1.952-5.900) and the allele T (OR=3.764, 95%CI:2.730-5.192). The serum level of IL-10 was significantly lower in IAs group than that of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The IL-10 promoter SNP influences the expression of IL-10. IL-10 promoter-1082G/A and-819C/T polymorphisms are correlated with the formation of IAs.
