MicroRNA (miRNA),an endogenous RNA,is wide spread in various organisms.Recent studies have found that miRNA plays an important role in cell proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis,immune and inflammatory response,etc.It's estimated that nearly 1/3 genes are regulated by miRNA.Because of its important role,the studies of miRNA related to kidney physiological and pathological mechanisms attract more attention gradually.it's very necessary to summarize the latest studies on kidney diseases.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics and regularity of ADR in secondary-level hospitals and above in Xi’an in order to provide reference for clinical drug use. METHODS:During Oct. 2012-Jun. 2014,1 372 ADR cases reported in 36 hospitals at secondary-level or above in Xi’an were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:Among 1 372 cases of ADR reports,the incidence of ADR in the above 60 age group occupied the highest percentage,being 29.67%(407 cases);ADR reports were most likely caused by antibacterial drugs,accounting for 45.77%,followed by TCM injections(15.82%)and circulatory system drugs(9.55%);the largest number of ADR reports was caused by injections(1 210 cases,88.19%);the main types of ADR were lesion of skin and its appen-dents,accounting for 44.16%. The most number of ADR was induced by Levofloxacin injection,involving 95 cases. CONCLU-SIONS:Mastering the characteristics and regularity of ADR help managers to standardize clinical rational drug use and ensure patients’ medication safety.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer and the blastocyst derived from frozen-thawed cleavage stage embryo transfer.Methods The data of 5 1 8 cycles in reproductive medicine center of the hospital from Sep-tember 2012 to August 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the frozen-embryos type,all patients were divided into three groups,group A:frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer,129 cycles;group B:blastocysts derived from frozen-thawed cleavage stage embryos transfer,123 cycles;group C:frozen-thawed cleavage embryos transfer,266 cycles.The clinical outcomes of all groups were compared with each other,and the rates of blastocyst formation and cancellation were compared between group A and group B.Re-sults The rates of biochemical pregnancy,clinical pregnancy and embryo implantation in group A(70.5%,61.2%,42.3%)and group B(67.5%,58.2%,40.2%)were significantly higher than group C(53.0%,42.5%,23.1%)(P<0.05);there were no signif-icant differences in the rates of early abortion,ectopic pregnancy,multiple pregnancy among three groups(P>0.05);there were no significant differences in the blastocyst formation rates of the high quality cleavage embryos at D3 in fresh cycles and the frozen-thawed cleavage embryos(62.5%vs.57.7%)(P>0.05)and those two groups were both significantly higher than the poor quality cleavage embryos at D3 in fresh cycles(20.3%)(P<0.05).Conclusion Blastocyst transfer in vitrified-thawed cycles could get rel-atively satisfactory clinical outcomes.There are higher blastocyst formation rate and better clinical outcomes of transfer blastocyst derived from frozen-thawed cleavage embryo.

Objective To analyze the outcomes of frozen-thawed blastocyst and cleavage embryo transfer after whole embryos cryopreservation. Methods The data of 489 IVF-ET cycles in reproductive medicine center of our hospital from September 2012 to August 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Whole embryos cryopreservation in 214 patients were carried out with vitrification method and served as group A , 275 cycles performed fresh embryo transfer were served as group B. Then group A and group B were subdivided into group A1 (83 cycles),group A2 (131 cycles), group B1 (120 cycles)and group B2 (155 cycles)according to blastocyst transfer or cleavage-stage embryo transfer. The clinical outcomes of all groups were compared each other. Results The pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate in group A1 were significantly higher(71.1% ,53.0%)than those in group A2, B1 and B2 (A2 group: 57.3%, 34.0%, B1group: 55.0%,42.1%, B2 group: 52.9%, 32.7%,respectively)(P<0.05). The embryo implantation rate in group B1 were higher than those in group B2 (P < 0.05). Conclusion F-ET after whole embryos freezing could significantly improve the embryo utilization rate and clinical pregnancy rate. Frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer could get better clinical outcomes than frozen-thawed cleavage-stage embryo transfer.

Objective To explore the value of dual-source CT monoenergetic-plus imaging in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer. Methods Imaging data of 2 6 cases with pathologically proven early gastric cancer who underwent dual-energy scanning were analyzed retrospectively.Monoenergetic-plus images with energy levels at 40 keV,50 keV,60 keV and 70 keV were reconstructed by using an advanced monoenergetic software (syngo.via.VA30A,Dual energy Mono+).Contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR)of the lesion,image noise,overall image quality score and lesion conspicuity score were com pared between different monoenergetic-plus images and conventional polychromatic images at 1 2 0 kVp.Results The CNRs (3 .2 4 ± 0 .7 6 ,2 .9 4 ± 0 .9 2 ,2 .4 7 ± 0 .7 9 ,2 .3 7 ± 0.98 and 1.22±0.40 respectively)and image noises [(32.7±1.82)HU,(25.6±2.61)HU,(20.30±2.1 7)HU,(1 7.03±2.1 5)HU and (18.15±2.12)HU respectively]among 40 keV,50 keV,60 keV,70 keV and 120 kVp groups all had statistical differences (F =24.654 and 227.05,P <0.01).The CNR in 50 keV group was higher than that in 60 keV,70 keV and 120 kVp groups,but similar to that in 40 keV group (P >0.05).The SD value in 50 keV group was lower than that in 40 keV group,but higher than that in other three groups (P <0.05).The overall image quality score (3.08±0.27,3.65±0.49,3.31±0.47,3.23±0.43 and 3.1 5±0.37,respectively) and lesion conspicuity score (4.15±0.67,3.92±0.48,3.27 ±0.45,3.08±0.27 and 3.04±0.20)among the five groups all had statistical differences (Z =25.343 and 70.426,P <0.05).The overall image quality score of 50 keV group was higher than that of the other four groups (P <0.05).Lesion conspicuity score in 50 keV group was higher than that in 60 keV,70 keV and 120 kVp groups and similar to that in 40 keV group (P =0.1 52).Conclusion The 50 keV monoenergetic-plus images can increase the CNR value of early gastric cancer while maintaining the overall image quality.

Objective To assess the characteristics of different doses of cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury,further to understand mitochondrial dysfunction and its role in acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods Male C57BL/6J mice were first randomly divided into two groups:control group (n =6) and AKI group (n =12).Then,AKI group was subsequently divided into other two groups according to different dose of cisplatin (10 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg).AKI group received intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin.All mice were sacrificed after 72 h of injection.Renal biochemical function,renal pathological changes,renal injury markers,kidney mitochondrial function and structural changes were observed.Results (1) After 72 hours of injection,the AKI group performed significant kidney injury changes compared to control group,thereinto 20 mg/kg group was more serious than 10 mg/kg group.With the cisplatin dose increasing,renal function markers such as serum creatinine,urine protein gradually increased.(2)Kidney biopsy showed tubular structural damage,the formation of protein casts,kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) gradually increased(P ＜ 0.05).(3)Electron microscopy found tubular mitochondrial structural damage,mtDNA copy number decreased,the level of peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1α),ATP synthase β decreased(P ＜ 0.05),and Western blotting manifested cytochrome C was released from mitochondria to the cytoplasm.These data all exhibited significant difference between different groups(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Cisplatin induces acute kidney injury in dose-dependent manner.Mitochondrial dysfunction participates in kidney injury,and is also related to the kidney pathological damage.

Objective To explore the technique of implantation of double-J stent via the guide-wire track, which was established through percutaneous renal puncturing, for the treatment of ureteral stricture and obstruction, and to evaluate its therapeutic effect. Methods A total of 75 patients with ureteral stricture or obstruction, who failed to respond to cystoscopic catheterization, were enrolled in this study. The lesions included benign stricture(n=60) and malignant stricture(n=15). Ureteral guide-wire track was established through percutaneous renal puncturing, which was followed by the dilatation of the stricture with balloon catheter and subsequent implantation of double-J stent via the guide-wire track. After the double-J stent was removed, the patients were followed up for 3 months to five years. Results The success rate of the procedure was 98.7%(74/75). Technical failure occurred in one patient with benign ureteral stricture. The cure rate was 70.7%(53/75), the improvement rate was 26.7%(20/75), and no improvement was seen in one case (1.35%). The total effective rate was 97.3%(73/75). Conclusion For the treatment of ureteral stricture and obstruction, the implantation of double-J stent via the guide-wire track, which is established through percutaneous renal puncturing, is a safe and effective method.

Objective To prepare imperatorin sustained-release tablets and study their pharmacokinetics and bioavailability in rabbits.Methods Hydroxy-propyl methyl cellulose(HPMC) and carbomer were used to constitute the binary polymer matrix.Orthogonal design was used to optimize the formulation of imperatorin sustained-release tablets.The preliminary pharmacokinetic study in the rabbits was carried out by single-dose crossover design using imperatorin plain tablets as control.An appropriate GC-MS method was developed for measuring the concentration of imperatorin in the blood.Results Optimized formulation contained 1∶20 HPMC K100M and 2∶25 carbomer.Single dose test with 300mg showed that the relative bioavailability of imperatorin sustained-release tablets was(115.37?45.46)%;AUC of the studied tablets and control tablets was(391.08?47.22) and(368.25?136.15)?g/(h?L),tmax(2.26?0.25) and(0.33?0.05)h,Cmax(59.66?6.28) and(295.91?127.00)?g/L,T1/2ke(2.27?0.09) and(0.60?0.10)h,respectively.Conclusion The release behavior of the imperatorin sustained-release tablets prepared with binary polymer system shows evident sustained-release characteristics.

Objective:To investigate the effects of titanium spcimens with different surface character on the proliferation and mRNA expression of IL-6 and Cbfα1 in osteoblasts.Methods:Titanium surface was treated by smooth pretreatment(PT),sandblast and acid etch(SLA)and anodic oxidation(AD)respectively.The morphology and the elements analysis of the spcimens were inspected and detected by SEMand EDS.The surface contact angle was measured by contact angle meter.MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured on the titanium surface and cells cultured on tissue culture plate were served as the control group.The proliferation was measured by MTT assay.The mRNA expression of IL-6 and Cbfα1 was quantified by RT-qPCR.Results:The sample surface in PT group showed scrat-ches,in SLA group showed multiple three dimensional structure,in AD group exhibited porous structure.The elements of the sample surface of group PT,SLA and AD were Ti,Ti/Al and Ti/O respectively;the contact angles were 54.47°±3.33°,75.42°±8.32° and 38.91 °±4.00°respectively(P<0.05).The cells in AD group showed higher proliferation than those in PT and SLA groups(P<0.05).In AD group IL-6 mRNA expression decreased and Cbfα1 mRNA increased more than in PT and SLA groups(P<0.05). Conclusion:Titanium spcimens treated with AD may promote cell proliferation,decrease IL-6 mRNA expression and increase Cbfα1 mRNA expression in MC3T3 cells.Implats treated with AD might have some advantages in early osseointegration.
