Total quantitative enzyme immunoassay was employed to measure urinary retinol binding protein (RBP) levels, rate for urinary N acetyl beta D glucosaminidase (NAG), and Jaffes rate for urinary creatinine (Cr). Results The levels of urinary RBP, mALB, ? 2 MG, NAG in hypertension patients were significantly higher than those in controls ( P

Objective To explore the morbidity, manifestation, pathogenesis and diagnosis of acquired immune deficiency syndrome( AIDS)-related lesions in digestive system. Methods The complete history interview, physical examination and diagnostic test were made in a total of 1000 heroin addictors with intravenous injection. Seventy-two of them were selected as AIDS based on the diagnosis criteria on HIV/AIDS of Centers for Disease Control(CDC) (CD4+ T cell count lower than 400/?l and human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV) load higher than 400 copies/ml). Results Main clinical manifestations of AIDS were persistent low fever, diarrhea, progressive exhaustion, opportunistic infection, tumorgenesis and multiple organ impairment. The morbidity of AIDS-related lesions in digestive system ranged from 1.4% to 98. 6%. Oropharyngeal and gastrointestinal lesions occurred in 71 cases (98.6%), while hepatic, biliary and pancreatic impairment occurred in 59 cases (81. 9%). Conclusions AIDS-related lesions in digestive system are common in AIDS patients which are mainly caused by HIV invasion, opportunistic infection, tumorgensis and immune system impairment.

Objective To study CEAmRNA、CK19mRNA and CK20mRNA in peripheral blood of lung cancer patients by Real-time RT-PCR,consequently discussing those result′s clinical significance.Methods 48 lung cancer patients,8 benign lung disease patients and 30 healthy volunteers of CEAmRNA,CK19mRNA and CK20mRNA in peripheral blood were detectd by Real-time RT-PCR.Results The levels of 48 lung cancer patients CEAmRNA in peripheral blood reach (16 264?28 765) copies/ml,of which 26 patients,results are positive; The levels of 48 lung cancer patients CK19mRNA in peripheral blood reach (14 891?27 244) copies/ml,of which 27 patients,results are positive; The levels of 48 lung cancer patients CK20mRNA in peripheral blood reach (10 924?21 678) copies/ml,of which 20 patients,results are positive. Among of 8 benign lung disease patients,there is just CK20mRNA was detected in one patient,both CEAmRNA and CK19mRNA were not detected in their peripheral blood. As for those 30 healthy volunteers,there is none of the mRNA was detected. Moreover,there is a marked positive correlation between the levels of CEAmRNA,CK19mRNA and CK20mRNA,the levels of CEAmRNA,CK19mRNA and CK20mRNA were correlated to the physiological cause or degree of lung cancer.Conclusion CEAmRNA,CK19mRNA and CK20mRNA in peripheral blood can be as auxiliary index for diagnosing lung cancer micrometastasis,also can monitor the lung cancer micrometastasis by quantity it.
