Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical epidemiology features of adult idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) in Zhongshan Hospital,and to investigate their therapeutic effect and its possible influence factors.Methods A total of 183 patients admitted to the Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University and diagnosed as IMN by renal biopsy from January 2013 to December 2015 were involved.Their baseline information including demographics and pathologic was collected.Patients were followed up for at least 12 months.Serum albumin < 30 g/L and 24 h urine protein > 3.5g were defined as nephrotic syndrome (NS).IMN patients were divided into NS and non-NS groups and compared.Furthermore,the baseline data of remission and no remission patients were compared,and the correlations of their baseline data with conservative and immunosuppressive therapy were assessed by logistic regression analysis.Results (1) IMN accounted for 11.1% of renal biopsy cases in our hospital,with an average age of 57 years and 59.6% male patients.(2) Compared with patients without NS,IMN patients with NS were older,had a shorter time from the onset to receive renal biopsy,lower estimated glomerular filtration rate,and higher total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein cholesterol,triglyceride and serum creatinine (all P < 0.05).(3) The effective rate of conservative treatment in IMN patients without NS was 65.7%,and the ineffective group had higher triglyceride compared with the effective group (P=0.019).(4) The effective rate of immunosuppressive therapy in IMN patients with NS was 81.2%,and low serum albumin was an independent risk factor for the poor efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy (OR=1.202,95% CI 1.003-1.440,P=0.046).(5) The effective rate of conservative treatment in IMN patients with NS was 55.5%,and low serum albumin was an independent risk factor for the poor efficacy of conservative treatment (OR=1.629,95%CI 1.047-2.536,P=0.023).Conclusions The detection rate of IMN is increasing year by year,but the remission rate of conservative treatment is still not low in mild and moderate patients.For the patients without NS,high triglyceride may predict a poor effect of conservative treatment.Hypoproteinemia is a predictor of poor effect,no matter what a NS patient takes immunosuppressive therapy or conservative treatment.

Objective To investigate artemin and its receptors GFRα3 expression in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and its significance. Methods Expression and distribution of artemin and GFRα3 in 100 cases of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC) and 40 cases of normal pancreatic tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR, quantitative RT PCR. Relations of artemin and GFRα3 with clinicopathological characteristics, especially nerve invasion were analyzed. Results Nerve invasion was detected in 64 out of 100 cases of PDAC, and the rate of nerve invasion was 64%. The ratio of expression of Artemin, GFRα3 protein in PDAC/normal pancreatic tissue was 2.697 ± 0.231 and 2.599 ± 0.588; the ratio of expression of Artemin, GFRα3 mRNA was 7.01 and 4.63. Artemin and GFRα3 expression were associated with tumor location, differentiation degree, TNM staging, nerve invasion node metastasis, but it was not associated with age, sex and tumor size. Artemin and GFRα3 expression was more positively expressed in cancer cells close to nerve tissue than cells far from nerve tissue. Conclusions Artemin and GFRα3 were involved in the development of pancreatic cancer and their high expression was closely related to perineural invasion.
