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 .

Intestinal schistosomiasis is a kind of intravascular parasitic diseases, and chronic inflammation of colon is one of the basic pathological changes of the sickness.However, the mechanism of caveolin-1 and tight junction proteins in the pathogenesis of intestinal schistosomiasis is still unclear.Aims: To study the expressions and significances of caveolin-1 and tight junction protein occludin, claudin-1 in schistosomiasis colitis in mice.Methods: Forty BALB/c male mice were randomly divided into control group and infection group.Schistosomiasis colitis model was established by placing 40 Schistosoma Japonicum cercarie on the abdomen.Mice were sacrificed after 8 weeks.HE staining was performed.The permeability of intestinal vascular endothelium was detected by Evans blue method.The leukocyte counts in peritoneal lavage fluid were measured.qPCR was used to determine the mRNA expressions of caveolin-1, occludin, claudin-1 and eNOS in colon tissue.Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the protein expressions of caveolin-1 and occludin.Results: Large number of egg granuloma was observed in colon submucosa and accompanied by extensive inflammatory cells infiltration in infection group.Compared with control group, content of Evans blue and leukocyte counts in peritoneal lavage fluid were significantly increased (P<0.05);mRNA expressions of caveolin-1, occludin, claudin-1 were significantly decreased (P<0.01);protein expressions and positivity rates of caveolin-1 and occludin were significantly decreased in infection group (P<0.05).Conclusions: Down-regulation of expressions of caveolin-1, occludin and claudin-1 can induce leukocyte accumulation via increasing the permeability of intestinal vascular endothelial cells, thereby involving in the development of schistosomiasis colitis.

To explore an easily executive and conveniently generalized method with effectiveness and low costing for myopia screening at the early stage.Research was performed to testify the reasonability of using axial length/corneal radius (AL/CR) for myopia screening in children by comparing the cost between AL/CR plus vision acuity (VA) and simple VA examination.Chinese school-aged children in Yangfang school district,Beijing (n=1427,aged 6～12 years old) were randomly grouped for either pure VA examination or for VA plus AL/CR examination.Those suspicious myopic children were informed for further refractive examination.Finally,the cost from screening to definite diagnosis of refractive error was calculated.Generally,compared with VA examination,the total cost was reduced by 15.12％ and by 12.34％,respectively,in the elder group using VA plus AL/CR examination.VA plus AL/CR examination is an economical and reasonable method for screening suspicious myopia in Chinese school-aged children compared with pure VA examination.
