Background: There is no gold standard for the diagnosis and monitoring of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).As immune system plays crucial role in the pathogenesis of IBD,some immune-specific serum antibodies are considered to be useful tools for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.Aims: To investigate the clinical significance of serum antibodies,including anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody (ASCA) and perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (pANCA) in IBD.Methods: Serum samples were obtained from 91 consecutive IBD patients from Feb.2015 to May 2016 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.Of them,52 were Crohn's disease (CD) and 39 were ulcerative colitis (UC).Serum samples of 36 non-IBD patients were served as controls.ASCA-IgG and ASCA-IgA were detected by ELISA,and pANCA by indirect immunofluorescence assay.Using clinical diagnosis as gold standard,crosstabs statistics was performed to measure the diagnostic accuracy of ASCA and pANCA,and ROC curve,Pearson Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were employed for analyzing the correlations of these two serum antibodies with IBD,CD,UC,and the location of the disease.Results: Both serum ASCA-IgG and IgA were correlated with CD (AUC=0.626 and 0.614),while UC was correlated with ASCA-IgA only (AUC=0.486).Serum pANCA had relevance to IBD (r=0.342),CD (r=-0.262) and UC (r=0.614);its sensitivity and specificity for IBD and UC were superior to those for CD (P<0.05).In CD patients,ASCA-IgG was associated with terminal ileal disease (P<0.05),and pANCA was associated with colonic involvement (P<0.05).In UC patients,both ASCA-IgG and IgA were correlated with terminal ileal disease (P<0.05).Conclusions: Serum ASCA and pANCA may be helpful for discrimination between CD and UC when the diagnosis of IBD is established.Furthermore,they are closely associated with the disease location,ASCA is related with the terminal ileal disease and pANCA is related with colonic involvement.

Objective:To study the effects of zinc deficiency on bone histomorphometric parameters of femoral distal diaphysis in rats. Methods:Thirty Wistar rats were randomly allocated into three groups:the zinc-deficient group(ZD), the control group(Cont),and the pair-fed group(ZP). After the rats had been fed for eight weeks, the histomorphometric and dynamic parameters of the rats were analysed using bone histomorphometric method. Results:The number, volume and connectivity of trabecular bone, and the mean trabecular plate density of ZD rats were significantly decreased, but their mean trabecular plate space was significantly increased. In addition, the data showed that ZD animals had significantly decreased trabecular osteoid surface, reduced velocity of bone formation as compared with Cont and ZP animals. The results showed that in ZD rats the mineral deposit rate was significantly slow, while the mineralization lag and osteoid maturation period were obviously prolonged. Conclusion: Zinc deficiency reduces velocity of bone formation and prolongs bone mineralization and destroys bone structure.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of oxiracetam combined with dexamethasone for treatment of patients with severe acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP).Methods Eighty-seven patients with severe ACOP admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2013 to July 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into observation group (47 cases) and control group (30 cases) according to random number table method. The two groups were given conventional nerve nutrition, hyperbaric oxygen and symptomatic treatment, while in the observationgroup, on the basis of conventional treatment the patients received intravenous drip of dexamethasone 5 mg (with addition of normal saline 100 mL), once a day for consecutive 3 days, and intravenous drip of oxiracetam 3.0 g plus 100 mL normal saline, once a day for consecutive 7 days. The changes of mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Barthel index and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) were observed after discharge for 30 days, and the differences of the incidence of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP) and hospitalization time between the two groups were compared.Results After treatment the MMSE and GCS scores of the two groups were higher than those before treatment, and the Barthel score was lower than that before onset. After discharge for 30 days, MMSE score (26.93±2.92 vs. 24.20±6.82), GCS (14.41±1.32 vs. 13.98±2.13), Barthel (94.78±12.62 vs. 85.25±19.57) of the observation group were significantly higher than those of control group, and the incidence of DEACMP was obviously lower than that in the control group [8.5% (4/47) to 17.5% (7/40)], the differences between the two groups being statistically significant (allP < 0.05); the hospitalizationtime of the observation group was shorter than that of the control group (days: 10.81±5.49 vs. 13.05±6.84), but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Early combined application of oxiracetam and dexamethasone can significantly improve the cognition and self-care abilities and reduce the incidence of DEACMP in patients with severe ACOP after discharge for 30 days.

Objective To evaluate whether three chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations (CKD-EPI2009Scr,CKD-EPI2012SCysC and CKD-EPI2012Scr-SCysC) are applicable in the prediction of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in Chinese patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN).Methods One hundred and eight patients with DN who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University with GFR being measured by dynamic renal imaging with 99mTc-DTPA from June 2012 to April 2014 were enrolled in this study.GFR measured by dynamic renal imaging with 99mTe-DTPA was used as the reference value (rGFR).GFR was estimated by the CKD-EPI2009Scr equation,the CKD-EPI2012SCySC equation,and the CKD-EPI2012Scr-SCysC equation (labeled as eGFR1,eGFR2,eGFR3).The correlation,30% accuracy,staging consistency,deviation and diagnostic accuracy were compared among the three CKD-EPI equations.Results The rGFR in 108 DN patients was (61.78±26.51) ml· min-1· (1.73 m2)-1.The correlation between three eGFRs and rGFR was significant (all P < 0.01),the correlation coefficients were 0.738,0.708,0.782.The 30% accuracy were 74.07%,52.78%,67.59%,The 30% accuracy of eGFR1 and eGFR3 were higher than eGFR2 (all P < 0.05),but there was no significant difference between eGFR3 and eGFR1 (x2=0.874,P=0.436).The staging consistency was not ideal,Kappa values were 0.391,0.180 and 0.422.For the deviations between three eGFRs and rGFR,there was no significant difference between eGFR3 and rGFR (P > 0.05),eGFR1 underestimated rGFR,eGFR2 overestimated rGFR (all P < 0.01).The results of the Bland-Altman chart showed that consistencies between three eGFRs and rGFR were poor,the degree of deviation of eGFR3 was the smallest.The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of three eGFRs was 0.878,0.883 and 0.915.The AUC,sensitivity,specificity,overall compliance rate and Youden index of eGFR3 were the highest.Conclusions The eGFRs predicted by the three CKD-EPI equations showed good relevance,accuracy and diagnostic accuracy with the rGFR,but poor in consistencies.Comparatively,CKD-EPI2012Scr-SCysC may be better than others,but its consistency limits exceeds the acceptable limits.Therefore,the applicability of using the three CKD-EPI equations to predict the GFR in Chinese DN patients requires a larger sample and multiple verifications as well as further improvement.
