To study the status and risk factors of cognitive disorder in hemodialysis patients.Methods We re-cruited the hemodialysis patients in our hospital during March, 2013 to February, 2014 and assessed their cognitive function.The case -control method was used to test the risk factors of cognitive disorder in these patients.Result-sThe occurrence rate of cognitive disorder in these hemodialysis patients was 59.4%.Education level and chronic in-somnia significantly influenced the risk of cognitive disorder.The higher education level, the lower the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (OR =0.51; 95%CI =0.30 -0.86); The patients with a history of chronic insomnia were at a 1.98 times higher risk of had (OR =1.98; 95%CI =1.05 -3.75) of cognitive disorder compared to those without chronic insomnia.Conclusion There is a high prevalence of cognitive disorder in hemodialysis patients.Education lev-el and chronic insomnia are independent risk factors for cognitive disorder.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of peripheral blood parameters including immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF) in monitoring the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia aftcr receiving consolidation chemotherapy with high dose cytarabine (HDAC).Methods The peripheral blood parameters,including absolute neutrophil (ANC) and platelet (Plt) counts as well as IRF,were measured by Sysmex XE-2100 automated hematology analyzer before and after consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC in 30 patients with acute myeloid leukemia.These peripheral blood parameters were further statistically analyzed and compared.Results Following consolidation chemotherapy,the median time to recovery for ANC,Plt and IRF was (9.2±2.5) days,(11.3±3.7) days and (5.0±2.6) days,respectively.In comparison with ANC and Plt recovery,IRF showed significantly early recovery (P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,ANC raised preceding Plt recovery (P ＜ 0.05).However,the median recovery time of ANC,Plt and IRF showed little difference among these patients further subgrouped according to FAB and risk based classification (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion IRF is an early indicator for the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia following consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC,which could provide important clinical information to evaluate therapeutic efficacy.

A potentiometric immunoelectrode with non-labeled anticancer antigen CA 15-3 antibody used for determinating CA15-3 was reported. firstly, the anti-CA15-3 antibody was immobilized on the surface of polyvinyl chloride-bovine serum albumin membrane, which was activated previously. Secondly, CA15-3 was added on the surface of the antibody membrane to form the antigen-antibody complex. Lastly, the complex membrane was used to assemble an immunoelectrode with an Ag-AgCl inner electrode. The potential of the complex membrane was measured with a pH meter. The response was linear over the range of 15～240　U／mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. Other common antigens in human serum did not interfere with the determination of CA15-3. The mechanism of potential response was explored.

Objective:To explore the influence ofDan Shou Tang to fetal loss induced by APA.Methods:One hundred of10-week pregnant SD rats were divided randomly into two groups, every group were divided randomly into nourishing kidney and promoting blood flow group A, nourishing kidney group B, promoting blood flow group C, group D-APS model group and group E--blank control group.From the first day ofpregnancy, the rats in group A were given Dan Shou Tang through intragastric administration;the rats in group B were given formula to nourish kidney and rats in group C were given formula to promote blood flow, while group D and group E, as the control were given the corresponding physiological brine through intragastric administration.Then on the eighth and the twelfth day ofpregnancy, all rats ofgroup A, B, C and D were given multi-site subcutaneous injecting ofpurified ACA-IgG or LA-IgG with a dosage of15mg/ml, fats ofgroup E were injected the corresponding physiological brine.On the 15th day ofpregnancy, the rats were killed for samples.Results:Compared with APS model group, fetal absorptivity, ACA and APTT level were dramatically decreased in group A, B and C(P

OBJECTIVE: To explore whether there are beta-amyloid protein (Abeta) binding elements in heart-beneficial recipe (HBR, a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine), which can ameliorate the cytotoxicity of Abeta. METHODS: The extract of HBR and Abeta(1-40) were co-precipitated, and the Abeta(1-40) in pellets was detected by immunoblotting. Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) was constructed, and Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) affinity elements from the extract of HBR were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The assay of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release from the primary cultured rat cortex neurons was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of Abeta(1-42), and the protection effects of the HBR serum and the Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) treated HBR serum. RESULTS: Immunoblotting examination showed Abeta(1-40) could be co-precipitated with components of HBR following co-incubation, and the amount of Abeta(1-40) within pellets decreased when the HBR extract was diluted. Abeta(1-40) affinity elements from the extract of HBR, eluted from Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) by glycine solution (pH=2.5), could be detected by HPLC-fluorescent detector system. The analysis of LDH release showed that exposure of neurons to 5 micromol/L Abeta(1-42) for 48 h caused a significant increase of LDH release in either a serum free or 10% serum contained culture condition (P<0.01). The rat HBR serum was able to suppress Abeta(1-42) induced LDH release (P<0.05), whereas Affi-gel-Abeta(1-40) treated HBR serum still maintained the ability to attenuate Abeta(1-42) induced LDH release although the effect was somewhat decreased compared with Affi-gel treated HBR serum. CONCLUSION: There are Abeta affinity components in HBR, which could not increase the Abeta cytotoxicity, but might be able to inhibit the cytotoxicity of Abeta. The results implied that the exploration of Abeta affinity elements from Chinese medicinal recipe which is effective for Alzheimer disease, might be an important direction in Alzheimer disease therapeutic research area.

Objective To investigate the effect of noninvasive ventilator therapy on serum C-reactive protein (CRP), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and its clinical significance. Methods One hundred cases of moder-ate and severe OSAHS patients were selected by the method of parallel opening. All of the patients were given health education requirement , quitting smoking and wine , low fat diet and exercise to lose weight and other con-ventional treatment. The patients were randomly divided into the treatment group of 42 cases with noninvasive ventilator treatment , 44 cases treated with conventional treatment , to observe the changes of serum CRP , ET-1 and TNF-α levels and PSG parameters after 12 weeks in two groups. Results Apnea hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), the lowest oxygen saturation (LSpO2), and the average oxygen saturation MSpO2 in OSAHS patients were significantly improved after treatment (P < 0.01), but the degree of improvement in the two groups after treatment was significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.01). Plasma CRP, ET-1 and TNF-α levels in the two groups after treatment were lower than before treatment (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), but the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P < 0 . 05 or P < 0 . 01 ) . Conclusion Noninvasive ventilator therapy in improving the OSAHS monitoring data of patients with PSG can effectively reduce the serum CRP, TNF-α, ET-1 level, reduce the body′s inflammatory reaction.
