OBJECTIVETo explore lupus nephritis (LN) patients' monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) and urinary IP-10 (ulP-10) levels, the correlation between each clinical activity index and rheumatism syndrome, thereby proving objective evidence for microscopic typing of rheumatism syndrome.
METHODSTotally 60 LN patients were assigned to the rheumatism group (31 cases) and the non-rheumatism group (29 cases). Besides, 20 healthy volunteers were recruited as the normal control group. Clinical data and renal pathology were collected, and urinary levels of MCP-1 and IP-10 detected by ELISA. The correlation between rheumatism syndrome and each activity index as well as manifestations of clinical activities was comprehensively analyzed. Results (1) Patients in the rheumatism group were more liable to occur fever, serositis, edema, and hypertension (P<0.05). (2) Compared with the non-rheumatism group, patients in the rheumatism group exhibited much higher levels of 24 h protein quantification and blood urea nitrogen, higher levels of uMCP-1 and ulP-10. Microscopic hematuria, anti-ds-DNA, anti-Sm, the positive rate of AnuA, scores of SLEDAI and BILAG were higher in the rheumatism group than in the non-rheumatism group (P<0.05). Levels of plasma albumin and complement C3 were lower in the rheumatism group than in the non-rheumatism group (P<0.05). (3) The average activity index (AI) of the renal pathology was higher in the rheumatism group than in the non-rheumatism group. The most frequent pathological type of rheumatism group was type IV of LN.
CONCLUSIONSMore severe renal damage and immune abnormality occurred in LN patients of rheumatism syndrome. Rheumatism syndrome is closely correlated to clinical activity indices.

Objective To study the SRSF2 mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients by using high-resolution melting analysis (HRMA). Methods PCR-HRMA analysis was performed to screen SRSF2 mutations in 140 cases with AML, and the direct DNA sequencing was used to confirm the HRMA results. Results Five percent (7/140) of AML patients were found with heterozygous SRSF2 mutations, including one case of P95R mutation, two case of P95L mutation, and four cases of P95H mutation, the above mutations were confirmed by direct DNA sequencing. The maximal sensitivity of HRMA in detecting SRSF2 mutation was close to 10%. There were no difference in gender, age and blood parameters among cases with or without SRSF2 mutations (P > 0.05). The overall survival (OS) of patients with SRSF2 mutations was inferior to those without SRSF2 mutations in AML patients (P=0.016). Conclusions HRMA analysis was a convenient, rapid, specific, high-throughput technique for scanning of SRSF2 gene mutations in AML patients. SRSF2 mutation may predict the adverse prognosis in AML patients.

Objective:To evaluate the best parameter of predicting the operation time and clearance of flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy through comparing correlations between three stone burden parameters (diameter, area, volume) and the operation time or clearance retrospectively.Methods:Clinical data and CT images of 70 patients who performed flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy because of single kidney stone in our center from January 2018 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 46 males and 24 females; their age was (47±12) years old. Stones were located on the left side in 28 cases and right side in 42 cases; 32 cases in the renal pelvis , 29 cases in the lower calyx, 6 cases in the middle calyx and 3 cases in the upper calyx. The free software ITK-SNAP 3.6.0 to segment kidney stones in 3D models with the CT image was used. The stone volume was calculated automatically after the segment. The largest section of the stone on the CT coronal plane was selected to measure the maximum length (D) and width (d) of the stone, the maximum diameter of the stone was D, and the stone area was calculated using the formula 0.25πDd. The patients were divided by the operation clearance into total clearance group and partial clearance group. The correlations between three stone burden parameters (volume, diameter, area) and operation time or clearance of the flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy were compared. Simple linear regression model was also applied to compare three measurement methods. Then other factors which may affect the operation time was evaluated with the stepwise linear regression model, such as stone component and location.Results:The median operation time was 63(50, 84)min. Of 70 cases, 47 cases were in the stone-free group, with stone volume 633(248, 1 087)mm 3, maximum diameter 15(10, 19)mm, and area 82(49, 186)mm 2. 23 cases were in the non stone-free group, with volume 696(408, 1 418)mm 3, maximum diameter 15(12, 20)mm, area 105(73, 201)mm 2. There was no difference between the two groups in volume, maximum diameter and area of stones (all P>0.05). The stone-free rate of the diameter >2 cm group was 55% (6/11), ≤2 cm group was 70% (41/59). There was no significant difference between the two groups. Correlation between stone volume and operation time is the best. The correlation coefficient of stone volume is 0.58, of stone diameter is 0.33, of stone area is 0.34. Coefficients of determination of the stone volume linear regression is the best, too. R square of stone volume is 0.36, of stone diameter is 0.17, of stone area is 0.22. Forward stepwise regression model shows stone volume is the most important parameter which correlate with operation time. None of stone volume, diameter or area has significant correlation with the clearance of stone. Conclusion:Stone volume is the best predictive parameter of the stone burden because it has the best correlation with the operation time of the flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy of the single kidney stone.
