Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids+cyclophosphamide+tacrolimus capsules (GC+CTX+FK506) in the treatment of patients with type Ⅲ+V and Ⅳ+Vlupus nephritis. Methods The 31 cases with first diagnosis as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with type Ⅲ+V and Ⅳ+Vlupus nephritis (LN) were selected, then divided into group A (CTX+GC) with 16 cases and group B (FK506+CTX+GC) with 15 cases. The group A received CTX+GC during treatment, group B received GC+CTX+FK506 for the first three months, and received FK506+GC for the last three months. The patients were followed up once monthly to observe the efficacy and safety,the efficacy was analysed after 6 months. Results After treatment, the total efficacy in group B was significantly higher than group A (86.7%vs.50.0%, P<0.05). The 24 h urine protein of group B was lower than group A(P<0.05). The plasma albumin of group B was higher than group A (P<0.05). After treatment, the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) in two groups were lower and C3 level was higher than those pre-treatment(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in above indicators between two groups. There was one case menelipsis in group A, and one case with transient increasing of creatinine. Conclusion The FK506+CTX+GC could reduce urine protein sifnificantly compared with CTX+GC without serious adverse reaction.

In order to investigate the levels of stem cell factor (SCF) and its receptor c-kit protein and mRNA in pediatric aplastic anemia (AA) and their relevance to the pathogenesis, immunocytochemical and in situ hybridization were utilized to detect the expression of SCF and its receptor c-kit gene protein and mRNA, respectively in 59 children with AA and 51 normal controls. The relationship between SCF and c-kit and the pathogenesis of AA was analyzed subsequently. The results showed that the positive rate of SCF protein and mRNA expression in children with AA was significantly lower than that in healthy controls (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the positive rate of c-kit protein and mRNA expression between children with AA and control group (P > 0.05). It was concluded that the expression of SCF is significantly decreased in children with AA, which may be closely associated with the pathogenesis of the AA. c-kit may be unrelated to the development of pediatric AA. Therefore, AA in children may have abnormalities at SCF/c-kit signal transduction levels.

Objective To compare the blood glucose level and associated hypoglycemia risks between group of insulin glargine combined with repaglinide and group of mixed insulin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes in the elderly. Methods Sixty four type 2 diabetes patients (age≥60 years) with inadequate glyeaemic control by drugs were divided into 2 groups randomly: glargine group (32 cases) and mixed insulin group (32 cases). In glargine group, 32 patients were given repaglinide before breakfast, lunch, supper respectively and injection of glargine hypodermically once at 22 o'clock every night, while the 32 patients in mixed insulin group were injected with the mixed insulin (Novolin 30R) hypodermically before breakfast and supper respectively for 16 weeks. The dose of repaglinide and insulin were adjusted every 3 days according to the level of fasting glucose (FPG)and postprandial glucose (PPG), reaching the aim of FPG less than 7.2 mmol/L and PPG less than 10mmol/L. The blood glucose level and the incidence of hypoglycemia were observed. Results The daily glucose profile and the level of HbAlc of the 2 groups dropped obviously after 16 weeks treatments (all P<0. 05). At the end of the experiment, the PPG of lunch and supper, and the level of HbAlc were markedly lower in glargine group than in mixed insulin group (all P<0. 05), and the body mass index (BMI) increased markedly in mixed insulin group compared with pre-experiment (P<0. 05), but no significant change was found in glargine group (P>0. 05). The incidence of hypoglycemia in glargine group was lower than that in mixed insulin group (2 patients in glargine group, 12 patients in mixed insulin group, P<0.05). Conclusions Both of the mixed insulin and glargine combined with repaglinide have visible effects on controlling the blood glucose, but the latter has better efficacy, lower risk of hypoglycemia and lower increase of BMI than the former.
