1.Association of solute carrier family 2, member 9 (SLC2A9) genetic variant rs3733591 with gout in a Malay sample set
The Medical Journal of Malaysia 2018;73(5):307-310
Introduction: Gout is one of the most common inflammatory
arthritis in Malaysia. It is due to persistent hyperuricemia
that leads to the formation and deposition of intra- and periarticular monosodium urate crystals either due to excessive
production or insufficient excretion of uric acid. Incidence
and prevalence of gout is increasing worldwide, with a
higher rate among men compared to women. Malay is the
largest ethnic group in Malaysia, followed by Chinese and
Indian. SLC2A9 is a renal urate transporter that controls
renal uric acid excretion and genetic variants in SLC2A9 are
associated with the risk of gout in several populations. This
study aimed to test if the SLC2A9 variant (R265H, rs3733591)
is also associated with gout among Malays in Malaysia.
Methodology: A total of 89 patients with gouty arthritis and
100 normal subjects who consented and were recruited in
this study. The serum urate and creatinine were measured.
The SNP genotyping was performed using PCR-RFLP
method for rs3733591 and BST 1236 was used as a
restriction enzyme to cut the targeted amplicons.
Result: SLC2A9 variant was associated with gout, p-value of
0.007, OR=4.713 [95%CI 1.530-14.513], however this
association was not significant after adjustment for age and
gender with p=0.465 (OR=1.950; 95%CI[0.325-11.718]).
Conclusion: Our data suggest that the genetic variant of
SLC2A9 may contribute to the susceptibility of gout among
Malays in Malaysia.

4.Non-absorbable mesh reconstruction for pelvic organ prolapse pelvic floor:therapeutic efficacy and biocompatibility evaluation
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(43):6988-6992
BACKGROUND:Surgical treatment is mostly adopted in the treatment of III-IV pelvic organ prolapse, in which, the appropriate patch can be used to implement the pelvic floor reconstruction so as to reconstruct the pelvic anatomic relationship and restore the normal pelvic organ function. OBJECTIVE: To verify the efficacy and biocompatibility of the non-absorbable mesh reconstruction of the pelvic floor in III-IV pelvic organ prolapse. METHODS: Totaly 127 female cases of III-IV pelvic organ prolapse were enroled, aged 31-81 years. Of the 127 cases, 65 cases undergoing vaginal hysterectomy and anterior and posterior vaginal wal repair served as control group, another 62 cases undergoing pelvic floor reconstruction using non-absorbable mesh acted as observation group. The two groups were observed in the perioperative period and then folowed up for 12 months. POP-Q measurement, pelvic floor function and adverse reactions were observed in the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The operation time and blood loss in the observation group were less than those in the control group (P < 0.05). After 12 months of folow-up, the results of POP-Q measurement were significantly improved in the both groups compared with the previous (P< 0.05), but there was no difference between the two groups. In addition, pelvic floor static tension, dynamic tension and contraction force were stronger in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). In the observation group, there were six cases of mesh corrosion, one case of infection and one case of dysuria. It is indicated that the non-absorbable mesh reconstruction of the pelvic floor can effectively restore the pelvic energy in patients with III-IV pelvic organ prolapse, but there are some adverse reactions such as mesh corrosion.
