Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2014;(6):415-419
Renal function is closely associated with the risk of mortality ,cardiovascular events ,and progression to end stage of renal disease for patients with chronic kidney disease ( CKD ).Equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate ( GFR) based on serum creatinine or Cystatin C are frequently used in clinical evaluation of renal function.Although renal function can be more accurately assessed due to improvement in equations for estimated GFR ,it is difficult to overcome the inherent defect of creatinine based GFR estimation.Abundant ,evidence showed that Cystatin C based GFR estimation presented higher accuracy of prognosis assessment in CKD patients than creatinine based GFR estimation ,thus reduce the unnecessary nephrologist referral and measurements for low risk patients ,and also guarantee the timely recognization and intervention for high risk patients.This article deeply reviewed the role of serum creatinine or Cystatin C played in CKD diagnosis and prognosis assessment.

Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 1994;0(06):-
Objective To examine the effect of hydroxyethyl starch (HES 6%, 200/0.5) on reticuloendothelial system (RES) function in hemorrhagic shock. Methods Thirty 8 to 12-week-old Wistar rats weighing 250-350g were randomly divided into two groups: HES group ( n = 15) and control group ( n =15) . The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 0.5% pentobarbital sodium 30mg ?kg-1 Bilateral common carotid arteries were exposed and cannulated for MAP monitoring and blood-letting. Blood was gradually removed until MAP dropped to 40mm Hg, which was maintained for 60min. Then same amount of HES (HES group) or Dextran (control group) was infused. The Kupffer cells were separated and purified before hemorrhagic shock (T0), at 12h (T1) 24h (T2) 48h (T3) and 72h (T4) after HES or DEX infusion, when the animals recovered from shock. Phagocytic activity of Kupffer cells (KC) was measured by counting the amount of Latex particles ingested by KC. Results At the same intervals (T1-4) there was no significant difference in phagocytic activity of KC between the two groups. There was no significant difference in phagocytic activity of KC between T0 (baseline) and T1-4 in both groups.Conclusions The phagocytic activity of Kupffer cells in not affected by removed of 20-30% blood volume which was replaced by same amount of HES.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the effect of formaldehyde inhalation on the allergic rhinitis mice model.
METHOD:
Forty-eight male BALB/C mice in six experimental group were exposure to (A) saline control; (B) Der p1; (C) formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m3); (D) Derp1 + formaldehyde (1.5 mg/m3); (E) Der p1 + formaldehyde (3.0 mg/M3); (F) Der p1+ formaldehyde (6.0 mg/m3). The concentrations of IL-4, IL-10 and IFN-γ in the peripheral serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Nasal mucosal inflammation was evaluated by HE staining. Result: Formaldehyde exposure could increase the number of allergic rhinitis mice with sneezing and rubbing nose. The levels of IL-4 and IL-10 in group B, D, E and F were higher than that ingroup A (P < 0.05). Compared with the group C, the group D, E and F could effectively increase serum IL-4 and IL-10. The concentration of IL-4 in group E and F was higher than that of group B, while the group C was lower (P < 0.05). The concentration of IL-10 in group D, E and F was higher than that in group B (P < 0.05). The expression of IFN-γ in group B, D, E and F was lower than that in group A. While, the IFN-γ expression in group B was lower than that of group C and higher than that in group F (P < 0.05). Moreover, the concentration of IFN-γ in group D, E and F was lower compared with group C (P < 0.05). The nasal mucosa HE staining showed that the density of EOS increased simultaneously in formaldehyde exposure allergic rhinitis groups.
CONCLUSION
The study showed that formaldehyde exposure can promote Th2 cytokines and eosinophil infiltration and then aggravate the allergic rhinitis symptoms.
