Objective To investigate the effect of high-flux hemodialysis on mineral and bone metabo-lism( MBD) in diabetic kidney disease patients with maintenance hemodialysis .Methods 60 cases with diabetic kidney disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were studied and they were randomly divided into two groups according to the number table method .Patients in each group were treated using either high-flux dialyzer or low-flux dialyzer for 6 months.Blood calcium(Ca), blood phosphorus(P), calcium*phosphorus(Ca*P), alkaline phosphatase(AKP), parathyroid hormone(PTH), and 25 hydroxy vitamin D3(25-OH-D3),etc were deter-mined at the start and end of the study .Results In high flux dialysis group , serum P, serum Ca*P, and PTH levels was(1.52 ±0.50)mmol/L,(3.05 ±1.19)pg/L and(368.61 ±235.32)pg/L respectively, which was sig-nificantly decreased than before treatment ((1.78 ±0.55)mmol/L,(3.94 ±1.31),(427.45 ±288.93)pg/L) (P<0.05), while serum Ca, and 25-OH-D3 levels were(2.3 ±0.16)mmol/L and(21.64 ±8.51)nmol/L respectively, which were increased significantly than before treatment ((2.12 ±0.18)mmol/L,(16.77 ±7.69) nmol/L)(P<0.05), yet in low flux dialysis group serum Ca, P, AKP, PTH, and 25-OH-D3 didn't change sig-nificantly before and after treatment ( P>0.05) .Conclusion High-flux dialyser provides a better effect on MBD for patients with diabetic kidney disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis .

Objective To investigate the damage to the retinal cells and apoptosis of retinal cells of rats after ischemia-reperfusion insult. Methods The retinal ischemia-reperfusion model was developed by increasing intraocular pressure to 109 725 mm Hg in rat eyes. Morphological changes of the rat eyes were observed by means of routine histopathology with HE staining. Apoptosis of the retina was assayed by both DNA fragmentation gel-electrophoresis and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick end labelling (TUNEL). Results Compared with the normal control, no histopathological changes were revealed in the rat retinas 30 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Retinal ganglion cell layer (RGL) and inner plaxiform layer (IPL) of the retina were observed, however, to become significantly thinner 60 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Together with the pathological changes DNA ladder pattern was detected in the same group of the rats. Further, immunochemical stain of the eye demonstrated that TUNEL positive cells were localized in RGL and IPL of the retina. Conclusion Ischemia-reperfusion insult of the eye may remarkably damage the retina of the rat eye. The damage to the retinal cells is mainly localized within RGL and IPL and apoptosis is the important mechanism of the retinal disorder.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of urothelial carcinoma in renal allograft re- cipients and to investigate its diagnosis and treatment.Methods A retrospective study was undertaken on 1293 renal allograft recipients in our center between 1998 and 2003.Of them ,21 cases(72.4% )had urothe- lial carcinoma(4 males and 17 females).All the cases had not had tumor before transplantation.In 17 cases the protopathy was chronic interstitial nephritis(CIN).The mean interval between tumorigenesis and trans- plantation was 26 months(range,6-62 months).Of the 21 cases,6 had bladder transitional cell carcinoma (TCC);6 had unilateral pelvic or ureter TCC;8 had unilateral pelvic or ureter and bladder TCC;1 had bilat- eral pelvic and ureter TCC.In 10 cases,the ipsilateral upper urinary tract of the graft was involved;and in 4 cases,the contralateral upper urinary tract was involved.Painless gross hematuria and iterative urinary tract infection were the cardinal symptoms.Surgical treatment was performed in 19 cases.Postoperatively,all the cases received immunosuppressants at one third reduction dose in combination with intravesical instillation chemotherapy.Results Two cases receiving palliative treatment died 5 and 8 months after diagnosis.The other 19 cases were followed for 2-5 years.Of them,13 cases had tumor recurrence.The recurrence sites were bladder and the contralateral upper urinary tract.All the cases had no acute rejection at reduced dose of immunosuppressants,and all had normal renal function except for 2 cases,who underwent removal of the graft and had dialysis again.Conclusions Renal allograft recipients whose protopathy is CIN and female recipients have the risk of urothelial carcinoma after renal transplantation.Urothelial carcinoma occurs more often in ipsilateral upper urinary tract of the graft than in contralateral upper urinary tract.Considering the high possibility of bilateral upper urinary tract involvement by TCC,prophylactic bilateral nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision should be considered in renal allograft recipients who have involvement of contra- lateral upper urinary tract of the graft.

Objective To investigate the correlation between red cell distribution width RDW) and prognosis in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.Methods A total of 264 consecutive patients with severe traumatic brain injury admitted from May 2012 to November 2014 were enrolled.The patients were divided into low-RDW group (RDW ＜ 15％,n =198) and high-RDW group (RDW ≥ 15％,n =66) based on their RDW levels.Between-group differences were evaluated on general conditions,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ),inflammatory markers [high sensitivity C-reactive proteins(hs-CRP) and arterial lactate],liver/renal dysfunction,and 28-day mortality.Spearman correlation analysis of RDW with mortality was conducted.Independent factors of 28-day mortality were identified using multivariate Logistic regression.Kaplan-Meier 28-day survival curve was analyzed and survival probability of the two groups was compared using Log-Rank test.Results The 28-day mortality was significantly enhanced in high-RDW group compared to that in lowRDW group (43.9％ vs 26.8％,P ＜ 0.01).RDW ≥ 15％ related positively to APACHE Ⅱ and mortality(r =0.172 and 0.253 respectively,P ＜ 0.01),but negatively to Glagow coma score (GCS) (r =-0.169,P ＜0.01).RDW≥ 15％ was the independent risk factor for predicting the 28-day mortality (OR =2.144,95％ CI 1.202-3.826,P ＜0.01).After adjusted gender,age,and other relative factors,RDW≥15％ was still strongly correlated with the 28-day mortality(OR =2.244,95％ CI 1.076-4.678,P ＜ 0.05).Significantly lower 28-day survival rate was found in high-RDW group than in low-RDW group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions RDW level rises beyond the normal range on admission in patients with severe traumatic brain injury,which is closely correlated with the 28-day poor outcome.RDW≥ 15％ has significant predictive value in the prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the content rationality of antimicrobial agent thimerosal in chloramphenicol eye drops. Meth-ods:Chloramphenicol eye drops with thimerosal at different concentrations were prepared, and the antimicrobial activity was studied. Results:When the test solution contained 0. 02 mg·ml-1 thimerosal, the antimicrobial activity could achieve the requirement in the pharmacopoeia. Conclusion:Thimerosal at different concentrations in the commercial chloramphenicol eye drops all can reach the anti-microbial effect. However, the thimerosal concentration in some eye drops is unreasonably high, which should be reduced.
