1.Evaluation of Chinese cobra venoms in preventing the kidney from ischemia/reperfusion injury
Chinese Journal of Nephrology 2005;0(08):-
Objective To investigate the renal protection of Chinese cobra venoms (CCV) and its mechanism in renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Methods Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups. 0.1% CCV was separately infused into abdominal cavity at 0.5 h, 24 h before reperfusion in group Ⅰ and Ⅱ . Group Ⅲ suffered from kidney I/R was served as pathological control. Group Ⅳ was sham operation group. BUN and Scr were measured before ischemia and 24 h after reperfusion. Complement C3 was observed at 0, 0.5, 2, 24 h after reperfusion. The kidney samples were examined by HE stain under light microscopy. Apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-biotin in situ nick-end labeling(TUNEL). Results Significant histological damage, apoptosis of tubular cell and impaired renal function were found in group Ⅰ and Ⅲ.The above indexes decreased to a less extend in group Ⅱ (P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of argatroban in the treatment of progressive cerebral infarction.Methods Three hundred hospitalized patients with progressive cerebral infarction from October 2006 to September 2011 were collected,among which 150 cases who agreed to the use of argatroban as experimental group,and 150 cases who didn' t agree to the use of argatroban for economic reasons as control group.Experimental group was treated with venous argatroban.It was 60 mg/d within the first 2 days and 24 h continuous intravenous drip.From the beginning of the 3rd day,the dosage was changed to 10 mg each time,twice a day for 5 days.Additionally,75 mg clopidogrel was given once a day for 12 days.Control group was only treated with 75 mg clopidogrel once a day for 14 days.The degree of neurological deficit was compared using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scoring and the rehabilitation condition was evaluated by Barthel index (BI) and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scoring between 2 groups before treatment and 3 d,14 d,30 d and 90 d after treatment respectively,and further compared to patients with large artery stenosis and anterior or posterior circulation infarction.The indexes of coagulation function of 2 groups were monitored meanwhile.Results The degree of neurological deficit was significantly improved in the short term (before treatment:NIHSS 15.19 ± 2.70,after treatment of 3 d 10.75 ±2.09,t =2.l14,P =0.037 ;14 d 8.77 ± 1.50,t =2.092,P =0.039;30 d 6.89 ± 0.79,t =2.520,P =0.013 ;90 d 4.85 ± 0.38,t =2.723,P =0.008),and the activities of daily living were significant enhanced in the experimental group (after treatment of 30 d BI 70.89 ± 12.69,90 d 88.16 ± 11.96,90 d mRS 1.57 + 0.39) when compared with the control group (after treatment of 30 d BI 60.26 ± 11.85,t =2.292,P=0.023;90 d 69.90 ± 12.63,t =2.790,P =0.006;90 d mRS 2.14 ±0.52,t =2.124,P =0.035).For large artery stenosis or posterior circulation infarction,the efficacy of argatroban was better.The indexes of coagulation function were in the normal range both before and after medication.No serious adverse reaction occurred during treatment.Conclusion Argatroban which has a higher security probably improves the prognosis and reduces the disability of patients with progressive cerebral infarction.

ObjectiveTo analyze the causes of discomfort occurring in the interventional treatment of diabetic foot, to discuss the individualized nursing measures for improving the patient's comfort and cooperation,and for increasing the successful rate of the interventional procedure.MethodsThe control group included 9 patients who received conventional nursing care.The study group had 13 patients who accepted individualized nursing care and nursing intervention, which was designed according to every patient's individual conditions. ResultsIn the control group, one patient could not endure the surgery to the end because of the long operating time. Another two patients had to take examinations repeatedly because the imaging quality was very poor,which was caused by the body movement due to uncomfortable mechanical stimulation.Urinary retention occurred in one patient.The mean operative time of the control group was 2.8 hour per surgery.The average dosage of contrast medium used was 150 -300 ml per procedure.All the subjects in the study group completed the surgery successfully,the mean operative time was 2.2 hour per surgery and the average dosage of contrast medium used was 100 -200 ml per procedure.Conclusion During the perioperative period of interventional treatment for diabetic foot, the effective individualized nursing care and nursing intervention,the measures to improve patient's comfort and the cooperation,etc. can certainly increase the successful rate,saving the operating time and reducing the contrast dosage.

Objective To clone and express the hexon protein of three prevalent human adenovi -rus strains causing respiratory disease and analyze the antigenic characteristics of the recombinant proteins . Methods The full length genes encoding hexon protein of human adenovirus serotype 3(HAdV3), serotype 4(HAdV4) and serotype 7(HAdV7) were cloned by PCR and sequenced , respectively.The alignment anal-ysis was performed by using hexon gene sequences from GenBank .The major antigenic regions of hexon pro-tein of the three serotypes were expressed in E.coli and purified.The antigenicity, immunogenicity and cross reactivity of the recombinant proteins were determined by ELISA and Western blot assay .Results The full length gene sequence encoding hexon protein of human adenovirus serotype 4 was firstly reported in China , which showed more than 99%homology in both nucleotide and amino acid sequences with the human adeno-virus type 4 NHRC3 strain.The partial hexon protein sequence of HAdV 3, HAdV4 and HAdV7 containing all of the 7 hyperviriable regions ( HVRs) were expressed in E.coli, respectively .The purified recombinant proteins could be recognized by antiserum of the three serotypes of adenovirus .The antiserum samples against the three recombinant proteins could cross-react with particles of the three serotypes of adenovirus . The possible type-and species-specific epitopes were predicted .Conclusion The major antigenic regions of hexon protein of the three serotypes were successfully expressed .The purified recombinant proteins contai-ning both intertypes and type-specific epitopes showed a strong immunogenicity .

Objective:To explore risk factors of skin pruritus in peritoneal dialysis patients and the effect of individualized care intervention, to provide guidance for clinical practice.Methods:The total of 87 patients with peritoneal dialysis who were followed-up with pruritus in the Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2017 to June 2020 were selected. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the degree of pruritus, and the patients were divided into two groups: mild-to-moderate skin pruritus group (VAS≤6 points) and severe skin pruritus group (VAS>6 points). The risk factors of severe skin pruritus were analyzed by single factor and multivariate Logistic regression. The improvement of skin pruritus after 3 months of individualized nursing intervention was observed.Results:Among the 87 patients, the mild-to-moderate skin pruritus group and the severe skin pruritus group accounted for 64.4%(56/87) and 35.6%(31/87), respectively. Single factor analysis showed that the age, prevalence of diabetes, serum albumin, serum phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone and C-reactive protein levels were (61.8 ± 11.5) years old, 33.3%(19/56), (36.3 ± 5.3) g/L, (1.6 ± 0.5) mmol/L, 328.4(144.9, 494.5) ng/L, 2.8(0.6, 8.3) ng/L in the mild-to-moderate skin pruritus group, and (67.0 ± 9.2) years old, 61.1%(19/31), (33.9 ± 4.8) g/L, (1.9 ± 0.3) mmol/L, 397.0(300.0,758.6) ng/L, 7.2(2.6, 17.2) mg/L in the severe skin pruritus group, the differences were significant between the two groups ( t values were -2.17, 2.14, -2.32, Z values were -2.28, -2.90, χ 2 value was 6.07, P<0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that low albumin, high blood phosphorus and high C-reactive protein were independent risk factors for severe skin pruritus in peritoneal dialysis patients ( P<0.05). After 3 months of individualized care,18.4% (16/87) patients had complete remission,19.5% (17/87) patients significantly relieved, 55.2% (48/87) relieved, 6.9% (6/87) were ineffective, and the total response rate was 93.1%(81/87). Conclusions:More than one-third of peritoneal dialysis patients with pruritus are severe. Lower serum albumin, higher serum phosphorus and higher C-reactive protein are independent risk factors for severe pruritus in peritoneal dialysis patients. Individualized care can effectively improve pruritus in peritoneal dialysis patients.
