1,25(OH) 2 vitamin D 3 is the most effective status of vitamin D in the body.It will play a biological active role when it combines with the receptor of vitamin D. It is common in the chronic kidney disease patients who are lack of vitamin D. The research finds that among the chronic kidney disease patients, in addition to the classic role of vitamin D in regulating calcium and phosphorus metabolism, it can also protect the kidney and delay the progress of chronic kidney disease by blocking the renin-angiotensin system, inhibiting inflammation, reducing podocyte damage and delaying renal fibrosis, etc.This article summarizes the protection mechanism of Vitamin D in the chronic kidney diseases.

In recent years,T helper cell 17(Th17),regulatory T cell(Treg) and podocyte injury attrac-ted widespread attention in the pathogenesis of primary glomerular disease. Th17 cells have the function of re-cruiting neutrophils and macrophages to the infected tissue through the secretion of cytokines such as IL-17. Treg cells have immune function, mediated immune tolerance, protecting the body against inflammatory injury. The imbalance of Th17 cells increase and Treg cells decrease could play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of primary glomerular disease. As the important part of the glomerular filtration barrier,podocyte be-comes the focus in recent years. Study on relationship among Th17,Treg,podocyte injury and primary glomeru-lar disease will provide more theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of primary glomerular disease.

Objective To investigate the antiviral effects of antisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN)in 9HTEO infected with influenza A virus (IFAV) in vitro. Methods The ASODN which complemented to genomic PB1, M2, NS, PB2, HA mRNA of IFAV was used to investigate antiviral effection in vitro. The cytopathic effect (CPE) was observed, and the cell survival rates were measured by MTF assay, plaque assay, RT-PCR, Western blot and Immunofluorescence were performed to test anti-viral efficiency of PB1, M2, NS in cells mRNA and protein level. Results 9HTEO cells infected with IFAV almost all died when the multipicity of infection (MOI) is aboved after 5 days cell culture. The ASODN could increase the cell survival rates. The IFAV PB1, M2, NS significantly reduced CPE of IFAV infected 9HTEO cells, reduced the viral replication of IFAV in the cells (P <0.05). Conclusion The ASODN which targeted the mRNA of IFAV gene showed a significant and specific anti-IFAV effect both in mRNA and protein level in cells culture system. The study indicates that the PB1, M2 and NS mRNA may play an important role in regulating IFAV replication, and ASODN may have inhibitory activity on IFAV replication. The results established the basis for further study on new drugs against IFAV infection include the highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza virus.

Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura nephritis and IgA nephropathy are both characterized by extensive deposition of IgA in the mesangial area.In recent years, the researches on the pathogenesis of the two diseases have made significant progress.It was confirmed that the pathogenesis included the aberrantly glycosylated IgA1, abnormal complement activation, cellular immune imbalance and cytokine production disorder, genetic factors and so on.Furthmore, some other immunopathogenic mechanisms have a breakthrough on endothelial cell particles, extracellular trapping nets, podocyte autophagy and abnormal peptide lineage, offering new ideas for diagnosis and treatment of disease.This paper will review the above pathogenesis.

Objective To investigate the correlations between the clinical manifestations based on pathologic grades and renal pathological features of Henoch - Schonlein purpura nephritis(HSPN)in children. Methods The clinical data of 77 patients with HSPN in the Department of Nephrology,Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital from Ja-nuary 2004 to March 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The relationship between clinical manifestation and pathologi-cal features was analyzed. Results Among the 77 patients,21 cases(27. 3% )had both abdominal symptoms,and ar-thritis was reported in 15 cases(19. 5% ),28 cases(36. 4% )had abdominal symptoms and arthritis,and 13 cases (16. 9% )had no such symptoms. Hematuria and proteinuria were the most common clinical types[48. 1%(37 / 77 ca-ses)],followed by simple hematuria or proteinuria[27. 3%(21 / 77 cases)],nephrotic syndrome[23. 4%(18 / 77 ca-ses)],and chronic nephritis[1. 3%(1 / 77 cases)]. The major of pathological changes in HSPN were grade Ⅱ[46. 8%(36 / 77 cases)]and grade Ⅲ[45. 5%(35 / 77 cases)],the minority of them were grade Ⅰ[6. 5%(5 / 77 cases)]and grade Ⅳ[1. 3%(1 / 77 cases)]. The severity of urine protein was positively associated with pathologic classification (r s = 0. 472,P = 0. 000). According to the glomerular deposition of immune complex,there were 6 types. The percen-tage of deposition of IgA + IgM was 62. 3%(48 / 77 cases),IgA + IgG + IgM was 19. 5%(15 / 77 cases),IgA 14. 3%(11 / 77 cases),that of IgA + IgG 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases),and the IgM 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases),no Ig 1. 3%(1 / 77 cases). In these cases,76. 6%(59 / 77 cases)had complements C3 deposition;pathologic stage characterized by Ⅲ level and a-bove were common[54. 2%(32 / 59 cases)],Ⅱ level 42. 2%(25 / 29 cases),Ⅰ level 3. 4%(2 / 59 cases). Among the different types of immune complex depositions,there was no statistically significant difference in pathological types of distribution,while the clinical type and complements C3 deposition were significantly associated with pathologic classifi-cation(rs = 0. 361,P = 0. 001). Sixty - two cases were rated as level 1(80. 5% ),and 15 cases was level 2(19. 5% );in different clinical group,rating in glomeruli was statistically different(χ2 = 17. 2,P = 0. 004). Renal tubular interstitial rating of all the patients were level 1(100% ). Conclusions The severity of urine protein,complements C3 deposition is associated with pathologic classification. Pathologic classification can basically reflect the renal damage in HSPN.

IgA vasculitis(IgAV)is a systemic vasculitis characterized mainly by deposits of IgA, which can involve multiple systems such as skin, joints, digestive tract and kidney.When the kidney is damaged, it is often called Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura nephritis, which is a common secondary glomerulonephritis in children.The specific etiology and pathogenesis of IgAV have not been very clear so far, and further studies are needed.With the development of genomics, the researchers continue to study IgAV from the gene level, and realize that HLA is the most important genetic factor in its pathogenesis.In recent years, related genetic research methods have been extended to genome-wide association studies, and the occurrence and development process of IgAV has been analyzed from the epigenetic aspect.This article reviews advances in genetics of IgAV, which will provide important information for understanding the pathogenesis of IgAV and predicting the occurrence of high-risk individuals, disease severity and kidney damage.

Objective: To explore the effects of delayed umbilical cord clamping on full-term newborns and maternal outcomes. Methods: From January 2017 to April 2018, 287 normal full-term newborns delivered by vagina in the First People's Hospital of Xiaoshan District were selected in the research, and randomly divided into the control group (141 cases) and observation group (146 cases) according to the order of entering the delivery room.The control group was ligated the umbilical cord 15-20 s after delivery, while the observation group was ligated the umbilical cord 60 s after delivery.The level of hemoglobin, hematocrit, the incidence of anemia, polycythemia, hyperbilirubinemia and phototherapy time of full-term newborns were compared between the two groups 3 days after birth.The third stage of labor, the amount of postpartum hemorrhage and the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage were compared between the two groups. Results: The hemoglobin[(181.49±16.84) g/L] and hematocrit (0.545±0.055) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group[(175.90±17.49 )g/L, (0.515±0.062)] at the third day after birth (t=2.748, 3.409, all P<0.05). The incidence of neonatal anemia in the observation group was 0.68% (1/146), which was significantly lower than that in the control group [4.96% (7/141)], and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=4.848, P<0.05). The incidence rates of neonatal polycythemia, hyperbilirubinemia and phototherapy time in the observation group were 2.05% (3/146), 24.66% (36/146), (65.50 ±14.63)h, respectively, which in the control group were 0.17% (1/141), 22.70% (32/141) and (62.09±14.40)h, respectively, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (χ²=0.945, 0.153, t=0.953, all P>0.05). The third stage of labor time, postpartum hemorrhage volume, incidence of postpartum hemorrhage in the observation group were (5.97 ±4.17)min, (239.04±69.15)mL, 2.05% (3/146), respectively, which in the control group were (5.84±3.62)min, (227.73±56.99)mL, 0.71% (1/141), respectively, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (t=0.281, 1.504, χ²=0.945, all P>0.05). Conclusion Delayed umbilical cord clamping can increase the level of hemoglobin and hematocrit in newborns, reduce the incidence of anemia in newborns, and without increasing postpartum hemorrhage.

Objective:To investigate the role of follicular helper T(Tfh) cells and galactose deficiency IgA 1(Gd-IgA 1) in the children that were suffering from Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura(HSP) and Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura nephritis(HSPN)and the correlation between them. Methods:According to the presence or absence of renal injury, 62 children with HSP were divided into HSP group with 32 children and HSPN group with 30 children.Twenty children who underwent physical examination at outpatients were known as the healthy control group.Flow cytometry was used to measure the proportion of Tfh(CD4 + CXCR5 + PD-1 + ) in peripheral blood.Immunoturbidimetry and ELISA were used to measure the serum levels of IgA 1 and Gd-IgA 1 respectively. Results:(1) The proportion of Tfh cells in peripheral blood and the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1 in both HSP group and HSPN group had significantly increased than those in healthy control group( P<0.01). Compared result of the HSPN group with HSP group, the proportion of Tfh cells in peripheral blood and the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1 in HSPN group were higher than that in HSP group( P<0.05). (2) In the HSPN group, the proportion of peripheral blood Tfh cells and the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1 in group of renal pathology ≥ grade Ⅲ and heavy proteinuria were significantly elevated compared with group of renal pathology < grade Ⅲ and non-heavy proteinuria(<0.01). (3) In the healthy control group, the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1 was positively correlated with the proportion of Tfh cells in peripheral blood and the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1( P<0.05). Conversely, a non-positive correlation was shown in HSP and HSPN groups( P>0.05). Conclusion:The excessive activation of Tfh cells and the serum levels of Gd-IgA 1 may be one of the pathogenesis of HSP/HSPN, the degree of increment of the two factors may be related to the activity and severity of the disease.The mechanism of Tfh cells potentially leading to an increase of Gd-IgA 1 production requires further study.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of adjusted Narcotrend Index (NI) value guidancecombined with small-dose esketamine for program-controlled closed-loop target-controlled infusion (TCI) system.Methods:Forty-eight American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classificationⅠ or Ⅱpatients, regardless of gender, aged 18-55 yr, with body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia, were assigned to control group (group C, NI baseline value median 36) and esketamine group(group E, NI baseline value median 46) using a random number table method, with 24 cases in each group. Anesthesia induction and maintenance were carried out using effect-site concentration TCI(Schnider model for propofol infusion and Minto model for remifentanil infusion). After the NI value was maintained at 26-46 during anesthesia maintenance, a small dose of esketamine was given (as an intravenous bolus 0.2 mg/kg, followed by an infusion of 5 μg·kg -1·min -1for 30 min) in group E, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. Program-controlled closed-loop TCI was then started, and the target effect-site concentrations of propofol and remifentanil were adjusted every 5 min according to the corresponding preset NI baseline value. The main outcome measures were the percentage of time of NI value maintained in the target range within 1 h after administration of esketamine. Secondary outcome measures were the consumption of propofol and remifentanil, postoperative recovery time, incidence of nausea and vomiting, pain and shivering within 1 h after surgery. Patients were followed for intraoperative awareness on 2nd day after operation. Results:The performance of the program-controlled closed-loop TCI systems was within the safe clinical threshold, with no intraoperative awareness occurred in both groups. The consumption of propofol and remifentanil was significantly reduced in group E as compared to group C( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the percentage of time of NI value maintained in the target range, postoperative recovery time and incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Adjusted NI value guidance combined with small-dose esketamine provides better efficacy when used for program-controlled closed-loop TCI system.

Objective:To investigate the predictive factors of poor prognosis in children with acute kidney injury (AKI) treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT).Methods:In this retrospective case-control study, the clinical data were collected from 134 pediatric patients (82 male, 52 female) with AKI treated with RRT in six tertiary hospitals from May 2015 to June 2018. According to the serum creatinine level at discharge, the patients were divided into the favorable outcome group and unfavorable outcome group. The data of sex, age, primary diseases, AKI stage, time from diagnosis of AKI to start of RRT (h) and whether to start RRT within 24 hours, urine volume and complications between the two groups were compared. Continuous variables were compared by t test and Mann-Whitney U test, and percentage or proportions were compared by Chi square test. The predictive factors of adverse prognosis were analyzed by using univariate and unconditional binary logistic regression analysis. Results:The average age of the 134 AKI patients was (6±4) years. There were 114 patients (85.0%) in the favorable outcome group and 20 patients (15.0%) in the unfavorable outcome group. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of sex (χ 2=2.596, P=0.107), age ( t=0.718, P=0.474), primary disease (χ 2=2.076, P=0.722), AKI stage (χ 2=0.004, P=0.998), time from diagnosis of AKI to start RRT (h) ( P=0.745), whether to start RRT within 24 hours (χ 2=0.016, P=0.899), urine volume (χ 2=3.118, P=0.374), fluid overload (χ 2=0.014, P=0.905), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (χ 2=2.972, P=0.085), acidosis (χ 2=3.204, P=0.073), hyperkalemia (χ 2=2.829, P=0.093), the level of blood urea nitrogen ( t=1.351, P=0.179) and serum creatinine ( P=0.901) at the beginning of RRT. In the unfavorable outcome group, the proportion of patients with mechanical ventilation (45.0% (9/20) vs. 12.3% (14/114), χ 2=12.811, P<0.01) and the incidence of extra organ injury (≥3) (30.0% (6/20) vs. 10.5% (12/114), χ 2=6.365, P=0.041) were higher than those in the favorable outcome group. Logistic regression analysis showed that mechanical ventilation ( OR=12.540, 95 %CI: 3.376-46.577, P<0.01) and hyperkalemia ( OR=4.611, 95 %CI: 1.265-16.805, P=0.021) were the predictive factors of poor prognosis in patients with AKI treated with RRT. Conclusion:Mechanical ventilation and hyperkalemia may predict a poor prognosis in AKI patients treated with RRT.
