Objective To investigate the long-term therapeutic effectiveness of transplantation of adrenals for the treatment of Addison's disease in the past 15 years. Methods Nine cases subject to adrenal transplantation were followed up for a long-term and the outcome after 15 years was evaluated. Results Seven cases of graft adrenal survived. In 6 patients, urine 17-OHCS, urine 17-KS and serum cortisol were normal. The remaining two grafts out of the 9 cases didn't survive and they had abnormal levels of urine 17-OHCS, urine 17-KS and serum cortisol. Conclusion The transplantation of adrenals for the treatment of Addison's disease had a good long-term effectiveness.

Objective: To explore heart rate variability (HRV) and arrhythmia in patients with resistant hypertension.
Methods: Our work included 3 groups:Resistant hypertension (RH) group, n=39, Non-resistant hypertension (NRH) group, the hypertension could be controlled by 1-3 medications, n=42 and Control group, composed of 40 healthy subjects. The 24h ambulatory blood pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored, the time-domain of HRV and arrhythmia parameters were compared among 3 groups which including standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN), standard deviation of the average normal RR intervals for all 5-min segments (SDANN), the mean of standard deviation of all 5-minute RR intervals (SDNN Index), the root mean square of the differences between adjacent R-R intervals (rMSSD) and the percentage of adjacent R-R intervals varied by more than 50 ms (pNN50).
Results: Compared with Control group, both RH and NRH groups showed decreased time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0.05. Compared with NRH group, RH group had the lower time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0. 05, while the rMSSD was similar between 2 groups (t=-1.5048, P=0.1364). The rates of arrhythmia in both RH and NRH groups were higher than Control group. The incidences of premature atrial contraction and atrial tachycardia were higher in RH group than NRH group, P<0.05, while the premature ventricular contraction, ventricular tachycardia and A-V block were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05.
Conclusion: RH patients had decreased HRV and increased arrhythmia, especially with the higher incidence of atrial arrhythmia.

Objective To compare the efficacy of intralesional glucocorticoid injection with a needle-free injector versus an ordinary injector for the treatment of keloid. Methods A total of 60 patients with keloid were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups by using a random number table to receive intralesional injection of compound betamethasone with a needle-free injector(n=31)or an ordinary injector(n=29). The injection was given at a dose of 0.2 ml/cm3 once every 3 weeks for 3 sessions. Parameters for therapeutic efficacy were assessed, adverse reactions were recorded, and clinical pictures were taken before and after each treatment. Statistical analysis was carried out by the Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test with the SPSS 19.0 software. Results Compared with the ordinary injector group, the needle-free injector group showed significantly different injection time during the first and second treatment (U=299.000, 773.500, respectively, both P=0.000), as well as duration of pain after the first injection(U=730.000, P=0.003). After three sessions of treatment, there was a significant difference in the volume, height, hardness of keloid, scores for pain, itching and appearance, and number of injection points between the needle-free injector group and ordinary injector group (U=295.000, 336.500, 264.000, 464.000, 451.500, 308.000, 233.500, P=0.001, 0.007, 0.000, 0.041, 0.043, 0.003, 0.001, respectively). No significant differences were observed in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(all P>0.05). Moreover, the interval for lesion recurrence was significantly shorter in the needle-free injector group(11.8 days, 95%CI:10.96-12.6 days)than in the ordinary injector group(21.2 days, 95%CI:13.96-28.45 days). Conclusion Compared with the ordinary injector, the needle-free injector shows better efficiency for the treatment of keloid with decreased difficulty in injection and improved compliance in patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of antler polypeptides from Cervus elaphus yarkandensis on MC3T3-E1 cells. Methods The concentration of antler polypeptides of Cervus elaphus yarkandensis was measured by BCA protein assay kit. MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured and analyzed by BCIP/NBT chromogenic alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining kit. After being induced to form mineralized knot, the cells were stained by using Alizarin red staining. Three different concentrations (10, 1.0, 0.1 μg/mL) of antler polypeptides were analyzed by MTT method and micronutrients enzymes standard method to determine the effect of cell proliferation and ALP synthesis. Results The concentration of antler polypeptides was 0.07 mg/mL. The results of in vitro cell activity analysis showed that the positive rate of ALP was 90%and the mineralization knot was stained red. Compared with the control group, the different concentrations of antler polypeptides all showed the function of cell proliferation and the effect was dose-dependent after 3 d and 7 d. Compared with the control group, at the 3 d, three groups of antler polypeptides promoted synthesis and secretion of ALP (P<0.01) and the results showed a dose-dependent effect. Conclusion Antler polypeptides could obviously promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells and secretion of ALP, which indicated that antler polypeptides have certain effect on osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of antisense p21 oligodeoxynucleotide (p21 ASODN) on the expression of p21 protein and extracellular matrix in cultured human glomerular mesangial cells (HGMC) under high glucose medium. Methods HGMCs were transfected with 50 nmol/L or 100 nmol/L p21 ASODN or scrambled control oligodeoxynucleotide (SCODN) using lipofectamine 2000. After incubation under normal (5.5 mmol/L) or high (30 mmol/L) glucose media and different times, HGMCs lysates were collected and the expression of p21, fibronectin and laminin was examined by Western blot. The secretion of fibronectin and laminin by HGMCs in supernatants of culture media was also detected with EOSA. Results High glucose media significantly stimulated the expression of p21, increased the syntheses and secretion of fibronectin and laminin in cultured HGMCs in a time-dependent manner. Transfection of HGMCs with p21 ASODN not only decreased p21 protein level caused by high glucose media, but also attenuated the expression and secretion of fibronectin and laminin in supematants of HGMCs lysates and culture media. Meanwhile, SCODN had no significant effects on the expression of p21, fibronectin and laminin. Conclusions High glucose promotes the expression of p21 , fibronectin and laminin in cultured HGMCs. Transfection of HGMCs with p21 ASODN can decrease p21 protein level caused by high glucose media, and attenuate the expression of fibronectin and laminin in supematants of HGMCs lysates and culture media. Modulation of p21 expression in HGMCs may work as an effective way to mitigate the progression of diabetic nephropathy.
