Objective To access the long-term efficacy and safety of immunosuppression on the progression of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) by Meta analysis.Methods Databases EMBASE,Pubmed,Elsevier Science Direct,Scopus,Web of Science,Google Scholar,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,WanFang and VIP Data were retrieved to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) at least 3 years follow-up on immunosuppression for IgAN published before May 2014.The literatures were screened independently by two reviewers according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,and the methodological quality was assessed.Statistic software Stata 12.0 was used to conduct analysis.Results Nine articles were included in this study with a total of 568 patients.Immurnosuppression could lowered the risk for the progression to ESRD (RR=0.32,95％CI:0.20-0.49,P ＜ 0.01).As far as the efficacy of immunosuppression,subgroup analysis indicated that three studies with more than 7 year follow-up (RR=0.28,95％CI:0.13-0.59,P ＜ 0.01) were similar with 7 studies followed by for less than 7 years (RR=0.34,95％ CI:0.19-0.59,P＜0.01); six adopted immunosuppressor monotherapy (RR=0.29,95％ CI:0.15-0.58,P＜ 0.01) were similar to two used corticosteroids plus other immunosuppression (RR=0.33,95％CI:0.18-0.59,P ＜ 0.01); There were no significant differences between four studies from Europe (RR=0.27,95％CI:0.14-0.53,P ＜ 0.01) and five from Asia (RR=0.35,95％ CI:0.19-0.65,P＜0.01).Immunosuppression was associated with an increased risk for adverse events (RR=2.33,95％ CI:1.33-4.09,P＜0.01).Conclusion Immunosuppression for IgAN may reduce long-term risk of progression to ESRD,but increase the risk of adverse events to some extent.

Objective To evaluate the ability of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) as a prognostic indicator of renal function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.Methods A total of 122 patients with CKD were collected,and patients with allergies to sulfur hexafluoride,pregnancy,cardiopulmonary insufficiency,urinary calculus and tumour were excluded.These patients were divided into estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR,ml·min1· (1.73 m2)-1] ≥60 group,eGFR 30-59 group and eGFR ＜ 30 group.CEUS was performed after an intravenous bolus injection of 1.5 ml SonoVue (BR1;Bracco Milan,Italy).Time-intensity curves (TICs) and quantitative indexes were created using QLAB quantification software.Followed up for 2 years,and patients with eGFR dropped 50％,double serum creatinine and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) were regarded as having kidney failure events.Risk factors related to kidney survival were investigated using a multivariate Cox regression model.Results One hundred patients were enrolled in the study,with 78％ patients in CKD 1-2 stages,16％ in CKD 3 stage and 6％ in CKD 4-5 stages.Patients were followed for a mean period of 14.1 months,ten (10％) patients exhibited composite kidney failure events.Among 3 groups,significant differences in the left kidney length derived peak intensity (DPI) were noted (P=0.014,P=0.010).Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that the DPI was an independent factor of progression of kidney disease.Multiple linear regression showed that age,basic eGFR,peak intensity were associated with eGFR decline rate.Patients with DPI ＜ 12.27 db were less to recover from kidney disease progression as compared with patients with DPI≥ 12.27 db (P=0.008).The area under the curve (AUC) for DPI was 0.778(95％ CI 0.612-0.944,P＜ 0.05),with a sensitivity of 64％ and a specificity of 88％.Conclusions The DPI might be the most valuable CEUS parameter for the evaluation of renal function.The DPI could serve as an independent predictor of the long-term prognosis of CKD patients.

OBJECTIVETo observe the activity of peripheral blood monocytes (PBMs) derived macrophage scavenger receptors (MSR) and changes of serum inflammatory factor in peripheral blood in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), and to evaluate the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) on the MSR activity, to explore the relationship between inflammatory factor and scavenger receptors activity as well as the possible mechanism of GBE in stabilizing the atheromatous plaque.

METHODSNinety-seven CHD patients with normal blood lipids were classified into the stable angina group, the unstable angina group and the acute myocardial infarction group, and 29 healthy persons were taken as control. Levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) in all subjects were determined. And their PBMs were isolated, cultured in vitro, and transferred into macrophage to observe the effect of GBE on the expression of scavenger receptors.

RESULTSThe levels of MSR activity, CRP, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in patients with acute myocardial infarction > unstable angina > stable angina > control.

CONCLUSIONGBE could down-regulate the MSR activity in CHD patients, which was positively correlated with levels of CRP, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1. MSR activity could be taken as a monitoring criteria for active degree of vulnerable atherosclerosis plaque. GBE has the effect of suppressing MSR activity.
