Objective To explore the variation of the plasma high-sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels and analyze the relationship between inflammation and malnutrition in the patients with stage V chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods Ninety patients with stage V CKD were enrolled. The patients were divided into three groups according to their treatment, no dialysis (ND) group, hemodialysis (MHD) group and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) group. Plasma hs-CRP, albumin and hemoglobin were detected. Results The levels of plasma hs-CRP were significantly increased in the patients with stage V CKD compared with normal individuals (P< 0.01). It showed a significant difference between MHD group, CAPD group and ND group (P < 0.05), while no significant difference was found between MHD group and CAPD group. The plasma hs-CRP levels increased in the patients with lower plasma albumin (< 35 g/L) or lower hemoglobin (< 90 g/L). Levels of plasma hs-CRP showed a negative relationship with plasma albumin and hemoglobin (r =- 0.535, P < 0.01 ;r =-0.220, P < 0.05). Conclusions Plasma hs-CRP levels increase in patients with stage V CKD, and there is a negative relationship between hs-CRP and plasma albumin and hemoglobin. Inflammation may be a factor of malnutrition in patients with CKD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the reconstruction of thumb II-III degree defect by big toe wrap-around flap combined with second toe proximal interphalangeal joint.
METHODSBetween May 2004 to July 2012, 25 cases with thumbs II-III degree defects were treated. The ipsilateral big toe wrap-around flap combined with second toe proximal interphalangeal joint was designed to reconstruct the thumb defects based on the thumb size on the healthy side. The distal end of hallux was covered by flap at tibial side. The wound at the fibula side was covered by skin graft and flap. The bone defect at the second toe was filled with remnant hallux or iliac bone.
RESULTSAll the 25 reconstructed thumbs survived completely. The patients were followed up for 6-26 months without any joint degeneration. According to the finger reconstruction functional criterion publicized by China Medical Association, the finger function was assessed as excellent in 10 case, good in 11 cases, poor in 4 cases. Joint necrosis happened in 2 cases and bone malunion in 2 cases. The 4 cases received dead bone debridement and iliac bone graft. No malfunction occurred in the donor site.
CONCLUSIONSOur surgical method is a currently effective way to reconstruct II-III degree thumb defects. Satisfactory functional and cosmetic results can be achieved both in donor site and recipient site.

Objective To observe the effects of lung stromal cells on differentiation of mature dendritic cells (mDCs) deriving from mouse bone marrow. Methods The mDCs were cultured by complete medium, half of which was from the lung stromal cell cultures. One week later, the mDCs were induced into regulatory dendritic cells (rDCs). The morphological characteristics of rDCs were observed by Giemasa-Wright stain. The content of cytokines (IL-10 and IL-12p70) in the co-culture supernatants was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression level of cellular phenotype was tested with fluorescence-activated cell sorting, compared with mDCs. The difference of rDCs and mDCs was observed. Results Compared with mDCs, rDCs secreted higher level of IL-10 (P<0.01), and lower level of IL-12p70 (P<0. 01). In cellular phenotype, the expression of CD11b on rDCs increased (P<0.01), while the expression of CDllc, Ⅰa and CD86 declined (P<0.01).Conclusions Lung stromal cells microenvironment may induce the mDCs differentiate into a kind of DC with different biological characteristics.
