Objective To investigate the differentially expressed genes of urine samples from renal fibrosis model and carry out bioinformatics analysis.Methods Rat renal fibrosis model was constructed with the method of unilateral ureteric obstruction.Urine were collected from the rats with unilateral obstructive nephropathy and sham group, respectively.Total RNA was extracted and sequencing library was established.Differential expression mRNA were analyzed by GO and KEGG pathway.Known pre-miRNA were detected and novel lncRNA family were classified.Results Compared with the sham group urine, 813 up-regulated mRNA/lncRNA and 213 down-regulated mRNA/lncRNA were collected from the urine of renal fibrosis rats.Conclusions There are significant differential expression profile in urine samples between renal fibrosis rat group and the shame group.With high-throughput transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, the exciting possibility was raised for better understanding renal pathologies and development of new diagnostic biomarkers.

Objective:To evaluate high resolution esophageal manometry (HREM) in peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for pediatric achalasia of cardia (AC).Methods:Data of 30 AC children who received POEM in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2013 to September 2019 were reviewed. HREM was performed before and 6 months after POEM. Preoperative and postoperative lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP), 4-second integrated relaxation pressure (4sIRP), Eckardt scores and nutritional status were compared.Results:Children with AC aged between 4-14 years. Postoperative LESP was 5.50±1.13 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), which was significantly lower than that before operation (26.23±4.47 mmHg) with significant difference ( t=-24.623, P<0.001). Postoperative median 4sIRP was 5 mmHg, which was 20 mmHg lower than that before operation (25 mmHg) with significant difference ( Z=-4.786, P<0.001). Postoperative median Eckardt symptom score decreased significantly compared with that before (1 VS 8, Z=-4.796, P<0.001). Severe malnutrition of the AC children improved evidently to normal( Z=-5.166, P<0.001). Conclusion:POEM can significantly improve the characteristics of esophageal dynamics in children with AC, and HREM can be an important indicator for follow-up evaluation of POEM.

Tissue distribution of marbofloxacin was studied in pigs after a single intramuscular injection at 2.5 mg/kg body weight. Samples of plasma, muscle, liver, kidney, heart, lung, and muscle at the injection site were randomly collected from five pigs at 2, 6, 10, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after administration. Marbofloxacin concentrations were determined by using high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection and were subjected to non-compartmental analysis to obtain kinetic parameters. The elimination half-life (t(1/2λz)) of marbofloxacin at the injection site was 22.12 h, while those in kidney, plasma, liver, lung, heart, and muscle were 16.75, 21.48, 21.84, 24.00, 24.45, and 28.91 h, respectively. Areas under the concentration-time curve from 0 h to (∞) (AUC(0–∞)s) were calculated to be 31.17 h·µg·mL⁻¹ for plasma and 32.97, 33.92, 34.78, 37.58, 42.02, and 98.80 h·µg·g⁻¹ for heart, muscle, lung, liver, kidney, and injection site, respectively. The peak concentration (C(max)) of marbofloxacin was 1.62 µg/mL in plasma and 1.71, 1.74, 1.86, 1.93, 2.45, and 7.64 µg/g in heart, lung, muscle, kidney, liver, and injection site, respectively. The results show that marbofloxacin was fast absorbed, extensively distributed, and slowly eliminated from pigs after a single intramuscular administration.
