BACKGROUND: The nutritional support, as well as the water and electrolyte balance during the perioperative period in the renal transplantation recipients at diuresis stage are important to the functional restoration of transplanted kidneys.OBJECTIVE: To explore the method and opportunity of the nutritional support and the handling of the water and electrolyte balance in perioperative period of renal transplantation.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A retrospective clinical analysis was performed in the Department of Urology, Xijing Hospital from June 2003 to June 2007.PARTICIPANTS: Ninety-six patients of chronic renal failure underwent allograft renal transplantation. They comprised 59 males and 37 females, aged 17-67 years, with a mean of 35.7 years.METHODS: The perioperative physiological features of the renal transplantation recipients were summarized retrospectively. The recipients' condition during the perioperative period was divided into two stages at the opening point of allograft blood current. The vital signs of the patients maintained at a stable level before operation. All patients received blood transfusion since the operation began, and were supplemented with albumin before opening the vessels. Urinary production exceeding 100 mL per hour indicated the beginning of fluid replacement, which was a simplified transfusion for the patients at diuresis stage following renal transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blood inosine, urea nitrogen, electrolyte, blood sugar and urine of the patients were detected at one day postoperatively.RESULTS: During 12-16 hours postoperatively, the urinary production was 260-1 200 mL, average 520 mL per hour. Blood routine test showed 8 cases developed mild hyponatremia, accounting for 8.3%, 3 cases occurred high potassium and healed after renal functional recovery, 1 case presented low potassium and healed with supplement therapy. There were no abnormal changes of blood chlorine. The blood glucose among 21 cases (21.9%) was higher than the normal level, and recovered following hormone maneuver. The electrolytes and blood glucose were detected to be normal in other patients, without any case with low calcium or magnesium. The urine specific gravity arranged during 1.010-1.015.CONCLUSION: The colloid such as erythrocytes, blood plasma and albumin should be mainly infused before the opening of allograft blood current. And the water and electrolytes is recommended to administrate promptly and regularly during the diuresis stage. The healing of the stoma benefits from the adequate nutritional support. The metabolic acidosis still should be prevented when the urinary production returns normal.

BACKGROUND:The laparoscopy is superior to open surgery for being less invasive, inducing mild stress reaction and allowing quick recovery after operation, however the effects of laparoscopy on perioperative serum cytokine levels are controversial, and only a few studies discuss these effects among pediatric patients.OBJECTIVE: To compare the changes in perioperative cytokine levels and their clinical significance in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopy and open surgery.DESrGN: Non-randomized concurrent controlled observation.SETTTNG: Department of Urology in Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICT PANTS: From May 2004 to December 2006, 135 pediatric patients for elective operation were recruited from Department of Urology in Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. Sixty-five patients were scheduled for laparoscopic surgery while the remaining 70 patients for open surgery.METHODS: Serum levels of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were measured at 24 hours before operation, and 3, 24, 48 hours after operation respectively. Duration of hospitalization time of all the children was also recorded.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α of all the patients were measured 24 hours preoperatively, and 3, 24, 48 hours postoperatively.RESULTS: All the 135 cases were included for statistical analysis. ①There were no significant perioperative changes in cytokine levels after laparoscopic surgery (P ＞ 0.05). In the open surgery group, IL-1β and IL-6 levels increased significantly at 3 and 24 hours after operation (P ＜ 0.05), and normalized within 48 hours postoperatively. No significant perioperative differences were found in IL-10 and TNF-α levels (P ＞ 0.05). The levels of IL-1β and IL-6 were significantly higher in the open surgery group than in the laparoscopic surgery group (P ＜ 0.05). ②Duration of hospitalization was shorter in the laparoscopic surgery group than in the open surgery group [(3.5±1.0), (7.5+1.5) days, P＜ 0.05].CONCLUSTON: Pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery had less perioperative changes in cytokine levels and quicker recovery.

Objective:To screen the differential metabolites and metabolic pathways in silicosis model by analyzing plasma metabolomics of silicosis rats.Methods:In May 2021, twenty male SD rats were randomly divided into control group (C), 1-week silicosis group (S1W), 2-week silicosis group (S2W) and 4-week silicosis group (S4W), with 5 rats in each group. Rats were intratracheally instillated with 1ml crystalline SiO 2 suspension (50 mg/ml) or normal saline and were sacrificed after 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks, HE staining was used to observe the lung pathology of rats. The plasma samples were analyzed by UPLC-IMS-QTOF mass spectrometer to screen out potential differential metabolites in silicosis models and analyze their lipid enrichment. Results:HE results showed that nodules formed in the silicosis model group, and with the extension of time, nodules gradually increased and alveolar structure was gradually destroyed. Metabolomics screened out 14 differential metabolites in S1W, 24 in S2W, and 28 in S4W, and found that the differential metabolites were mainly enriched in the metabolism of glycerophospholipid metabolism, fatty acid degradation, Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) -anchor biosynthesis, fatty acid elongation and other metabolic pathways.Conclusion:There are significant changes in plasma lipid metabolites in silicosis rat models.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of Sulfo-N-succinimidyloleate (SSO) regulating lipid metabolism disorder induced by silicon dioxide (SiO 2) . Methods:In March 2023, Rat alveolar macrophages NR8383 were cultured in vitro and randomly divided into control group (C), SSO exposure group (SSO), SiO 2 exposure group (SiO 2) and SiO 2+SSO exposure group (SiO 2+SSO). NR8383 cells were exposure separately or jointly by SSO and SiO 2 for 36 h to construct cell models. Immunofluorescence and BODIPY 493/ 503 staining were used to detect cluster of differentiation (CD36) and intracellular lipid levels, the protein expression levels of CD36, liver X receptors (LXR), P-mammalian target of rapamycin (P-mTOR) and cholinephosphotransferase 1 (CHPT1) were detected by Western blot, respectively, and lipid metabolomics was used to screen for different lipid metabolites and enrichment pathways. Single-factor ANOVA was used for multi-group comparison, and LSD test was used for pair-to-group comparison. Results:SiO 2 caused the expression of CD36 and P-mTOR to increase ( P=0.012, 0.020), the expression of LXR to decrease ( P=0.005), and the intracellular lipid level to increase. After SSO treatment, CD36 expression decreased ( P=0.023) and LXR expression increased ( P=0.000) in SiO 2+SSO exposure group compared with SiO 2 exposure group. Metabolomics identified 87 different metabolites in the C group and SiO 2 exposure group, 19 different metabolites in the SiO 2 exposure group and SiO 2+SSO group, and 5 overlaps of different metabolites in the two comparison groups, they are PS (22∶1/14∶0), DG (O-16∶0/18∶0/0∶0), PGP (i-13∶0/i-20∶0), PC (18∶3/16∶0), and Sphinganine. In addition, the differential metabolites of the two comparison groups were mainly concentrated in the glycerophospholipid metabolism and sphingolipid metabolism pathways. The differential gene CHPT1 in glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway was verified, and the expression of CHPT1 decreased after SiO 2 exposure. Conclusion:SSO may improve SiO 2-induced lipid metabolism disorders by regulating PS (22∶1/14∶0), DG (O-16∶0/18∶0/0∶0), PGP (i-13∶0/i-20∶0), PC (18∶3/16∶0), SPA, glycerophospholipid metabolism and sphingolipid metabolism pathways.

ObjectiveTo explore the distribution of pharyngeal microbiota in coal miners exposed to dust. Methods Eight coal miners who had been engaged in occupational dust exposure for more than 20 years were selected as the dust-exposed group, and four coal miners who were not exposed to dust at work were selected as the control group using the judgment sampling method. Pharyngeal secretions of the coal miners were collected with throat swabs, and its pharyngeal microbiota was analyzed. The diversity, abundance and evenness of the microbiota were analyzed by gene sequencing using the 16sRNA gene high-throughput sequencing technology. Results A total of 254 operational taxonomic units of pharyngeal microbiota were detected in the coal miners in the control group, which was 210 more than that in the dust-exposed group. The Chao1 index, Shannon index, PD-tree index and Pielou index of pharyngeal microbiota in the dust-exposed group decreased compared with the control group (all P<0.01). The abundance of Bacteroidetes and Clostridum, at the phylum level, in the pharynx of coal miners in the dust-exposed group was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The abundance of Prevotella, Neisseria, and Monas, at the genus level, in the pharynx of coal miners in the dust-exposed group was higher than that in the control group(all P<0.05), while the abundance of Lactobacillus decreased (P<0.05). The analysis results of the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that Lactobacillus, Fusobacterium and Rothia may play a role for pharyngeal microbiota imbalance prediction in dust-exposed workers, and the area under the curves were all 1.00±0.00. Conclusion The species diversity and evenness of pharyngeal microbiota in coal miners exposed to dust are decreased, which may be related to the continuous inhalation of coal dust that disrupts the microbial environment of the throat.
